Chapter 1954: The Heart of the World Prior to this, the Sultan had ordered the first minister, the Ottoman Grand Pasha, and the prime minister Armand to greet him, but at this moment his mind moved, and he commanded; "I'm going to personally greet guests from afar."
He suddenly wanted to meet the Orientals that Ibrahim Pasha had spoken of.
This is not because of leisure and elegance, but because he hopes to see this Lu Jun with his own eyes, and he can make a certain assessment of it in his heart, only in this way can he have a bottom in his heart.
He was a resolute man, and once he made up his mind, he acted with it.
He gave the order here, and after a short time, he took the guards and left the palace in a mighty manner.
The Ottoman monarchs, who had always valued their courage, had destroyed countless kingdoms since the Ottomans were established, and wanted to bring everyone to their knees, except for the Ottoman sultans who proclaimed themselves calipha and strengthened the legitimacy of their religion.
As a result, Suleiman was skilled in arching and riding almost from an early age.
At this time, he rode a horse, dressed in royal robes, and had a gem-studded scimitar at his waist, and arrived at the dock in a heroic manner.
And here, it's already bustling.
The great war is imminent, and now countless military horses are pouring here, and the lords from all over the country have arrived in Istanbul from here with their armies, and the entire dock is full of swords and samurai and retinues with swords tied around their waists, and the voices of people are full of people.
As a group of boats slowly approached the dock, countless people saw the boat's flag and immediately began to mock.
It turned out that this flag belonged to the fleet of the Pasha of Azerbaijan, and Azerbaijan was on the border of western Ottomans, and for a considerable period of time, under the influence of the Persians, not to mention that they were not of the same race as the Ottoman Turks, and in the hearts of many people, although they had the same faith as themselves, they belonged to the barbarians from the east.
When the ship landed, the soldiers of the new army began to line up and land, and they seemed to be very orderly, and each of them was fully armed, creaking on the trestle like a long snake, and landed ashore.
In this scorching hot metropolis, you can see the domes and spires of temples in the distance, as well as some Eastern Roman and Byzantine buildings, where people have different skin tones and different colors of clothing, and there are hardly any women to be seen.
In this noise, the officers and men of the New Army seemed to be extremely different, they remained silent all the time, there was no expression on their faces, and they seemed to be deaf to all the noise.
"They are not Azerbaijanis, they are Tatars."
Someone said loudly, and immediately, many people's faces showed complicated expressions.
The people here have no good impression of the Tatars, and their impression of the Tatars is actually mostly from the migration of the peoples who retreated from the steppe.
Don't look at them in the grassland, beaten by the original dynasty like a lost dog, but here, with years of war experience with the original dynasty, in the past thousand years, there have been countless glorious tribes, not to mention the impression of the emperor's whip, it is too profound, the Huns at the beginning migrated westward, it had made the blood flow here, after that, the Liao State perished, the Western Liao began to move westward, not to mention the famous Mongol expedition to the west, which established countless khanates in the vicinity, which is even more impressive.
The people here call all the tribes that come from the east the Tatars, and in their hearts the Tatars are cruel, and they slaughter cities and kill countless people.
Now, when they saw a group of black-haired, black-eyed Tatars, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
But these people did not seem to be as savage as they thought they thought, and they were too silent, and after consciously passing the dock, they still did not disperse, and began to line quietly and quickly, and then waited for their companions in the back line.
In this scorching hot weather, almost everyone couldn't help but cover their heads and faces with big robes, but these guys, in this scorching hot weather, carried dozens of catties of various household belongings, although they were sweating like rain, no one hid in the shade.
To be able to train such an army, we have to talk about the drills of the new army.
The training of the new army has been assiduously taken to the extreme, and it can even be said that in the barracks, no one trains soldiers as human beings, and the endless training has made them accustomed to any severe cold and heat.
At this time, Ye Chunqiu had already landed, and Ibrahim Pasha followed behind.
Ye Chunqiu looked at the wharf a few miles away, this capital city that had stood for thousands of years, and couldn't help but admire it, he smiled at Ibrahim Pasha behind him, and seemed to mean something: "This is the heart of the world." ” Ibrahim Pasha glanced at Ye Chunqiu, nodded and said, "Yes, whoever seized this place, who crossed the east and the west and became the master of the world." ” This sentence is very reasonable, saying that it is the heart of the world, meaning the geographical location here.
The geographical location here is indeed the heart, it is the continent of Franco to the west, the Ming Dynasty to the east, and Africa to the south.
Therefore, this can be said to be the hub of the entire world island, the heart of the world, and whoever gets here can master the whole world.
Ye Chunqiu looked at the countless mottled stone walls, and could faintly feel in his mind that in this city that had stood for thousands of years, how many dynasties and nations had been frantically slashed here in the years of the Manchu Dynasty.
After half a ring, Ye Chunqiu finally took his gaze back and said to Ibrahim Pasha: "Why didn't anyone come to greet him?"
Without waiting for Ibrahim Pasha to reply, they suddenly saw a group of men and horses coming towards them, and the countless crowds of onlookers were driven away with whips.
Ibrahim Pasha looked at the person who came and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, the Sultan is here." ” As soon as Ye Chunqiu raised his eyes, he saw a young man coming on a horse.
This man looked very dignified, his face wrapped in a turban, not angry, and the hula cavalry behind him followed him, and this man, although he was riding on a high horse, was also looking at him.
Suleiman, who was in the horse, was actually a little surprised, he could not have imagined that this king of the East, who was known from the mouth of Ibrahim Pasha, was so young.
He had already inquired about this army when he was far away, and this army gave him a very strange feeling, how to say, it was too silent.
This made him feel a little contemptuous in his heart, and in his heart, he thought that an invincible army must be mighty and majestic, but from these Lu troops, he did not see this.
At this time, he had come to Ye Chunqiu, and immediately got off the horse, looked at Ye Chunqiu, and smiled at the same time. aa2705221:
