"It's incredible, I've never seen such a luxurious ship, how many swords and spears can be made from the iron of this ship?"

Bohemie stroked the guns on the ironclad, with unconcealed greed in his eyes, and his thirst for wealth finally made Bohemi willing to take the risk to board the ironclad.

Tang Wenjie and the others smiled silently, if it was more than ten years ago, they would have the same expression, at that time, steel was extremely precious, and no emperor would waste so much steel to build a steel warship wrapped in iron armor on the outside.

But now that the Empire's booming industrial capacity had made the luxury of steel so cheap that every citizen of the empire could afford to use a large number of iron tools.

"We have a total of six warships on our visit to your country this time, and we have several times as many warships in the South Seas." Tang Wenjie explained.

Bohemi was secretly surprised when he heard this, for him, these six warships could not be built even if Persia used the steel of the whole country, and there were many such warships in the Eastern Empire.

Putting away the greedy look in his eyes, Bohemi stroked the metallic cannon on the battleship, "The appearance of this cannon seems to be very different from ours, I don't know how powerful it is?" ”

His words were a curiosity and a temptation, in order to gauge the might of these six warships.

Bohemia's words hit Tang Wenjie's plan, he said: "If you are interested, we can show you, but there is no target that can be shelled, I am afraid that you will not be able to see the real thing." ”

There was an inexplicable smile on the corner of House Heng's mouth, they had long seen that this Bohemi was not pure-minded, but before they figured out their strength, this Bohemi didn't dare to be presumptuous.

"That's a short answer!" Bohemiah, the governor of Abbas, who wielded military and political power, gave a few orders, and a soldier disembarked and headed for the docks, where a large merchant ship parked in the harbor soon sailed out of the harbor.

"Is this target enough?" Bohemi said proudly, as if to demonstrate his authority.

"Enough!" Tang Wenjie was very satisfied, and at the same time he instructed the captain of the Zhenwei to prepare.

When the large Persian merchant ships arrived at the intended location, Tang Wenjie led Bohemi and his party to the middle of the deck.

With a command, the huge roar of artillery sounded, and the Persian battleship, which had stopped at a distance of five hundred meters from the battleship, was shrouded in flames, and the entire battleship was blown to pieces in the shelling.

Bohemi was so frightened that his knees went limp, and he almost fell to his knees, and at this moment his eyes completely changed.

Obviously, the guns on these ships were extremely powerful, and unlike the shells of the Persian artillery, these shells also exploded.

Tang Wenjie was very satisfied with the effect of the shelling, and before Bohemi could come to his senses, he patiently explained the artillery and ammunition on the battleship.

"Emissary of the Great Eastern Empire, I sincerely welcome your arrival, and I will arrange this meeting as soon as possible."

Bohemi put away his unrealistic thoughts at this moment, and in his opinion these six battleships were enough to destroy all the warships of Persia.

What's more, the soldiers on the battleship also carried a musket that looked powerful, and if they were to attack Abbas, it was estimated that he would not be able to hold it at all.

"Thank you, Governor Bohemia." Tang Wenjie showed a smile that had succeeded in his treacherous plan, and then he gestured to Fang Heng.

Understanding, the house Heng walked over with a plate in his hand.

There were more than a dozen industrial products on this plate, such as glass beads, pocket watches, soaps, and perfumes, and if good relations could be established with Persia, the empire might be able to gain a small market.

Bohemia's eyes lit up, and anything on this plate seemed mysterious and noble, and he received more gifts than Pamir's gains.

This made him feel ecstatic in his heart, and Tang Wenjie became more and more cute in his eyes.

"You are the most generous friends I have ever met, and if you don't dislike it, you can go to Abbas, but rest assured, I promise that no one will hurt you." Bohemi completely accepted Tang Wenjie and his party, after all, who would have trouble with a rich visitor.

Tang Wenjie's goal has been achieved, and he believes that Bohemia's words are sincere, "We have been adrift at sea for six months, and we are indeed very tired, but we also have strict discipline, and we will let the soldiers go to Abbas in batches to rest, and we will pay for their food and drink." ”

He did this because he didn't want to refute Bohemia's face, and at the same time ensure his own safety, if he went to Abbas and was wiped out, it would be too late to cry.

"Of course, there is no problem."

Bohemiah said happily, and with a few more polite words, he returned to the shore with the Persian soldiers.

Turning to the Pamirs, he solemnly confessed, "Go to Ctesiphon on the fastest horse, and tell the king everything that is here, this eastern empire is important to Persia." ”

Pamir nodded and saluted Bohemia, he ran all the way to the stable, getting so many gems from the Eastern Empire, he was very motivated.

Seeing Pamir leave, Bohemia's mind came alive, and for him the arrival of the Eastern Empire was an opportunity for him and his family.

Just from the gifts they give, he can see that endless wealth beckons in the future, and this time he must facilitate the establishment of friendship between the two sides.

……

Ctesiphon.

King Gambis III and Grand Vazir Arsasi were having a headache when the French envoys appeared in Istanbul.

"It's a really strange thing that the French envoys came to Istanbul, what the hell did they talk about." Gambis asked.

The war between Persia and the Ottoman Empire has never ceased for two hundred years, and the two sides are often in conflict, and in this situation France is naturally nervous when France appears in the capital of the sworn enemy.

"According to the eyeliner we planted, Lancy wanted to cooperate with the Ottoman Empire against the threat from the Eastern Empire, and at the expense of Crimea and the Greek peninsula, and it would not be long before they would sign a treaty in Greece, which is now well known in Istanbul's aristocratic circles, and it is said that Saliman is also ready to ask the West to give the Ottomans some firearms in exchange for their choice to side with the West." Arsasi said word for word.

The perennial war has left both countries ambushing each other's countries, so they can keep abreast of some open information.

"That's really bad news." Gambis's brows furrowed deeply, without the containment of the Western powers, the Ottomans would be even more unscrupulous, which would be an absolute disaster for Persia.

But what makes him feel helpless is that he is powerless against the current situation.

It was only half a month later that his fears were dispelled by the news from Abbas, which was the same news that Pamir had brought.
