The Sun and the Lion

After Augustine resigned to end the meeting, Kamran, who was supposed to be handling paperwork, happened to take the initiative to meet him at this time and presented him with the report sent by the messenger to the study.

Seeing that it was an urgent letter from Shah Kulu, he immediately opened it and read it. There was no bad news in it that could make people mad. Sheikh Islam, who personally received Herzl, recorded everything he knew and what the other party said in the memorial. The report is relayed to Diwan to facilitate central decision-making.

Konya divided the uploaded report into two parts. The shorter one was an explanation of the recent Ottoman movements, as well as work reports on secondary missions such as spying on Rhodes Island.

The change of the Pope and the Ottoman Crusaders were the headlines. Compared with the monks and envoys who were talking about running a train, the situation described by the Italians was completely different - none of the major European countries paid attention, and even the expected die-hard Hungary did not dispatch. Of the regular army, only a group of farmers with God in mind stepped forward.

Then Selim's troops marched north to invade Hungary. The important town of Belgrade bore the brunt of the attack. After crossing the Danube, it was like entering an uninhabited land. The remnants of the army, which had been greatly reduced, still killed Hungary's corpses everywhere. The king was so frightened that he continued to attack Germany and Poland. Please provide reinforcements to protect yourself.

These were the general information he could learn. Even if many of the details were unclear, he could infer that the Crusade had failed. Instead, Ottoman relied on the flesh and blood of Christians to nourish his broken body.

Humph, give me an order to send the Frankish envoy out of the country as a gift. Seeing this, Ibrahim lost interest in continuing the meeting with the Holy See envoy - the Pope avoided talking about the existence of the Knights Hospitallers. And they want to unite with the Christian Church under Iran... Ha, this is quite a big deal.

Augustine, who had no idea what was going on, suddenly learned that his mission was coming to an end, and there was no room for struggle. He also wanted to contact the local Armenians. After all, opposing the unity of the church did not mean that we would live without contact until death. Fellow Christians under a monarch are sympathetic and curious.

The monk riding a donkey out of the city looked back at the towering bell tower of the cathedral. Maybe next time he could visit this place as an ordinary traveler.

The King of Kings put aside the Crusaders, which were no longer important to him, and learned about a series of things involved in recruiting pirates through another carefully compiled and written report.

Ibrahim, who had neither superhuman memory nor the ability to search the Internet at any time, did not recognize who Herzl was mentioned in the memorial, but the Barbary Pirates of the Maghreb alone was enough to remind him to continue reading Interest in this investment plan.

Also attached were the gifts prepared by Brother Redbeard. He was already used to sea charts and trophies. Even the map of the New World was not his first time.

But Herzl showed his sincerity with actions. Not only did he help the Red Heads capture Lesvos, but he also directed the raids and plunders on Thessaloniki, Negroponte Island and the coast of Morea. After Saddam's inventory, , the total spoils transported back to Izmir included thousands of prisoners of war and many properties of various types that were difficult to count.

In his report, Shahkulu stated that he had first provided a batch of military supplies and 500 red-headed volunteers to the Barbary pirates. Continued assistance required support from Isfahan. He stated that he only needed some trivial help. The influence of the Order can be expanded to Ifrikiya and even the entire Maghreb.

The issue of whether to intervene in the Jihad in the Maghreb was left for public discussion at this week's Divan meeting. The news was disseminated to the ministers in advance, and the clerk copied several copies of the report for the viziers. Circulated at the meeting. For a moment, the meeting hall fell into silence, with only the sound of turning papers.

The Grand Vizier and the Financial Vizier looked at each other and exchanged glances. It may be that they were stupid and could not understand the holy will. They did not see any need to intervene in the Maghreb at present, and they probably would not be able to make money if they rushed to do it.

Finance Vizier Mahmoud spoke first: Your Majesty, I believe that our country should concentrate its material and manpower to prepare for the attack on Sham and Mixir, instead of wasting precious resources to achieve other people's hegemony. Although our country has more financial resources than other palaces, More affluent, but I think you have to be careful about how to spend each silver coin...

With that said, he was about to calculate the economic accounts with Ibrahim and show the estimated results prepared in advance. It was obvious that attacking the Mamluks or conquering and plundering India was more profitable than throwing military expenditures into the Mediterranean. Lots of pictures.

Grand Vizier Ahmed added: Nowadays, the false caliphate is living in Cairo, and the custody of the Holy City has been stolen by Circassian slaves. Only by destroying this freak can you truly establish your influence in this world. Superior position.”

The two advised Ibrahim not to interfere in the Maghreb from both economic and political perspectives - at least for now. Just an ordinary pirate, so what if he refuses? The King of Kings is powerful, and there are many people in the world who are willing to work for him.

Uh... what Mr. Mahmoud and Mr. Ahmed said are very reasonable. Ibrahim turned his attention to the other people attending the meeting. However, even Qizilbash and the priests had few Someone was moved by the Holy War in the Maghreb and looked for Shuyuan www. zhaoshuyuan． com Compared with the coast that was being invaded by the Iberians in the distance, they were also more concerned about the holy city and the anointed land that were close at hand.

The Great Emir Hussein reminded: Your Majesty, now you have to recruit skilled sailors and experienced captains to form a fleet. Don't be led by these unknown pirate adventurers. They probably just want to Use this to strengthen yourself first, and then kick you aside, or you will be a complete fraud. Anyway, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the villain who lives in the Maghreb does not need to worry about your revenge.

I understand what you mean, but I don't think it's good to sit back and watch my fellow Muslims being insulted by the Franks. Besides, he has already surrendered to me. Ibrahim still didn't want to give up this opportunity. Even if he hadn't captured Egypt yet, he would first Tunisia drives the wedge.

Seeing this, everyone wanted to unite to persuade him not to abandon the near and seek the far. The King of Kings first gave the order: May Huda bless their jihad. In the name of the King of Kings of Iranians and non-Iranians and the human representative of the Hidden Imam, , made Oruch the regent of the Maghreb and Al-Andalus, and took charge of all military and political affairs in the two places.

This title is a blank check, and how much it can be cashed depends entirely on the pirates' own efforts. He would provide the promised assistance, but the Redbeard brothers would have to sail to Izmir to pick up the goods. Saddam and other officers transferred from the Persian Gulf and Anatolia would help the regent with his land and sea operations. Armed forces undergo training.

Moreover, the Barbary pirates were required to hand over one-fifth of their trophies as tribute every year, and one of the three brothers had to lead an army to stay in Izmir in the name of fighting against the Knights Hospitallers.

No one can stop the King of Kings who insists on his own way. The ministers must continue to implement the King's will even after verbally expressing their opposition.
