The price is a bit high

23:55, please come with flowers and book reviews. Thank you first!

Dawn arrived at Damietta City, and the blown-up houses were still blazing with blue smoke. The oblique sunlight shone through the glass and shone on the face of Louis IX who had not slept all night. Although his face still showed fatigue, there was no worry in his eyes. Because last night, he and Zhao Fubo reached an agreement on their future intentions.

Through the window, corpses were seen being moved out of the street, and the entire Damietta was revitalized.

At this moment, Sir Gremour appeared behind him, speaking with a low and respectful voice.

"Your Majesty, you have been with Tian Yi night. Are you going to have a rest!"

At this time, Louis IX had no intention of rest. On the one hand, he saw the opponent's strong offensive in the war yesterday, and he also understood Zhao Fubo's ruthlessness during the negotiations last night.

"There are two key points that need to be achieved. First, our goods must be sold through France throughout Europe. Second, I don't want to hear any objections about me and Kiriel. And I plan to go to Europe in the near future, where there are more things to be solved."

Although Zhao Fubo did not say it, Louis IX knew that he was still worried about the European trade route. Based on what his daughter told him, he had already seen Zhao Fubo's layout clearly.

He must have a stable occupation of Egypt, and his trade route must be stable. Only in this way can he accumulate his own strength, occupy a large amount of wealth and materials, and organize his own army. Louis IX could not imagine at this moment. If an army like the Yulin Army of the Song Dynasty had less than 100,000 or 200,000, I am afraid that the world would have to be owned by him.

What was even more exciting was that Zhao Fubo promised that when he completed his trip to Europe, he would sell the armor, crossbows, and even stone throwers of the Song Dynasty Yulin Army to him.

So although he was defeated, Louis IX was not very worried. Zhao Fubo had returned all his captured soldiers, war horses and armor. Of course, as usual, he had to leave a team of Song Yulin Army beside him as his guard to protect his safety.

Now counting it, Louis IX and his men still have about 60,000, and the remaining 40,000 were casualties in the war, and nearly 5,000 of them were soldiers of two Knights. Even last night, Zhao Fubo took the Knights of St. John (also called the Knights of Hospitals), from the country of the son of the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II of Jerusalem.

Zhao Fubo took all the huge hospitals and medicines they brought to him. Based on this, he also released the knights of the Knights of St. John and their great commander Gildom I. De Chatnifer.

As for the Knights Templar, this Knights that have mastered a large amount of wealth in Europe will not be so easy to escape. The same two conditions are the same. The first leader signed the document in the name of the Knights, and they will protect Zhao Fubo's commercial interests in Europe free of charge in the future. Secondly, they must pay a certain amount of money to redeem their knights and their leader, Gildom I, De Chatnifer.

This is certainly not an insult. Although before Zhao Fubo defeated the Pope's forces, everyone knew that the treaty to protect the trade route was just a piece of paper. Even Zhao Fubo knew that the Knights Templars were not in a good end. In the history class taught by Teacher Martin, they were eventually completely disintegrated by the Pope.

Louis IX looked at the miserable situation outside the window and sighed softly in his heart.

"Oh, the army of 100,000 troops was beaten to the point of being dismantled one day and one night. What does this mean? Is the Crusaders' combat skills insufficient, or is it because that guy's weapons are too strong!"

When he came, Louis IX was not worried about defeating the Mamluk cavalry of Green Clothing (i.e., the Ayub Dynasty). But now, facing Zhao Fubo's stone thrower using thermal ammunition and the grenade ejector called "Death Thunder" by the soldiers, it has long been proved that neither the Crusader nor the Mamluk cavalry would be the opponent of this small army.

"Your Majesty, please go and have a rest. If you know that this is the case, we will not be able to explain to our superiors!"

This time, Louis IX knew that he could not ignore their advice. Because it was not Sir Gremo who spoke, but the leader of a small team of guards sent to him by Zhao Fubo.

"Okay, I'll go and rest..."

Louis IX prolonged his voice, and through this reluctant response, he showed that he did not like such arrangements. But he also knew that if his daughter Qilil became Zhao Fubo's wife, he would really have to listen to him for the time being.

In addition, the betrayal of his brother Count Artuva also made him feel a little sad. With such a loyal guard team around him, he naturally didn't have to worry about assassination or other things. Now his heart is no longer here. Compared with France, the attractiveness of green food and clothing (i.e., the Ayubic dynasty) has greatly decreased.

Originally, he thought Zhao Fubo would use his fleet from Genoa and Venice to go back to France, but Zhao Fubowan followed his proposal.

"Your Majesty, please believe me. I am very willing to go on this trip with you and the Queen. Unfortunately, here I still have some things to deal with. If I don't handle it well, I worry that I may be greatly affected when I come back in the future!"

Louis IX understood what Zhao Fubo meant, so he did not persist. He knew that Zhao Fubo had controlled the army of Green and Clothing (i.e., the Ayubic Dynasty), so that he would try to consolidate his position in this area later.

Either he became the sultan of Cairo, or he helped a man he trusted to guard the gateway of the Mediterranean. As Zhao Fubo said, without green food and clothing (i.e., the Ayubic dynasty), he had to stay in Europe.

This was obviously not Zhao Fubo's choice. At this moment, he was taking his main combat cavalry to the vicinity of Daku Lake to deal with this matter.

Yesterday, General Baibls Bendugadari, the army of Prince Azam Tulansha, did not confront the Crusaders correctly, but had always adopted confrontation and procrastination methods.

"Hmph, Muke, it seems that the prince knows how powerful we are this time! I think he will become more sincere this time!"

Muke rode his horse and followed Zhao Fubo, not giving him much hope for his speculation, and he obviously had no favoritism for the prince!
