After the Persian merchant Saladi arrived at the seashore, he immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare separately, arrange all the Jin soldiers and horses on board the ship in the lowest warehouse, and use wooden planks to nail the warehouse firmly, and then put a large number of cheap goods on the outside of the warehouse, and the upper warehouse was placed with expensive goods from the east. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

And everything Saladi did was naturally to quietly smuggle the elite of the 3,000 Jin army to the port of Constantinople, so that the Jin army could easily break through this fortified city.

"Habula, let them all hurry up, and don't spoil the big thing of the Northern King." Saladi looked at the assistant Habula and said loudly.

Habula nodded and said, "Don't worry! It's going to be good soon, and it will definitely not delay the big event of the North King. ”

Saladi nodded and said softly: "As long as Constantinople is breached, the Great Jin Empire can be regarded as dominating the world, and after that, there will never be any force that can compete with the Great Jin Empire." ”

"Saladi, the Great Jin Empire dominates the world, is this a good thing or a bad thing for us businessmen?" Habula asked softly.

Saladi smiled, and said: "Of course it's a good thing, after the Great Jin Dynasty unifies the world, whether it is the East or the West, it will be under the control of the Great Jin, there will be a lot less war, and there will be a lot fewer bandits along the way, which is naturally very beneficial to us businessmen, and we have made friends with the most powerful people in the Great Jin, and in the future, after I sit as the official in charge of commerce in the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, our business will be better." ”

Habula nodded in agreement and said softly: "When the time comes, we can completely monopolize the trade between the East and the West, and countless amounts of money will flow into our pockets, it's really exciting to think about!" ”

Saladi smiled: "The days will get better and better, so our investment now is worth it, okay, the preparation is almost complete, we can go." ”

"Let's go, the fleet will leave immediately." Habula gave the loud order to go.

Subsequently, a few hundred of Saladi's men sailed in the direction of Constantinople with more than a dozen large merchant ships.

In the dense forest, Hua An and his henchmen are discussing how to attack Constantinople, especially some details of the attack, which must be carefully scrutinized, and there can be no sloppiness, and at the same time, they are also thinking about what to do if the plan fails, how to remedy it.

"Your Majesty, Saladi and their journey to Constantinople will inevitably be inspected by Roman soldiers, and if our soldiers are found out, the consequences will be truly unimaginable!" Wang San said worriedly.

"Yes! Your Majesty, isn't our plan too risky, after all, if it is discovered by the Roman soldiers, our 3,000 soldiers will have to die in the belly of the fish. Song Cheng was also very worried.

Obviously, they didn't have much confidence in Hua'an's adventurous plans, and always felt that they might be discovered by Roman soldiers.

Hua An smiled and said, "Don't worry!" This king believes that Saladi, he must have a way to deal with the inspection of the Roman soldiers, after all, he has been trafficking goods in the East and the West all the year round, and he knows many people, and the Roman soldiers in charge of the inspection may know Saladi, and I believe that it will be fine. ”

"Your Majesty, do we only have three thousand elites? The Roman army defending Constantinople was 10,000 men! Moreover, Constantinople was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Wang San said worriedly.

Hua'an thought for a while, and said, "Don't worry!" When Saladi's caravan arrived at the port of Constantinople, our soldiers did not act immediately, but waited until midnight, when the main forces of the Roman army responsible for defending must have rested, and our 3,000 elite troops were fully capable of taking Constantinople and supporting it until our reinforcements arrived. ”

Obviously, Hua An was very confident in the elite soldiers and horses under his command, and believed that the soldiers and horses under his command would definitely be able to defeat the Roman army three times his size, so as to break through Constantinople in one fell swoop and realize the wish of the Great Jin Dynasty to establish the Roman governorate.

When Song Cheng and Wang San heard this, they both nodded approvingly, and expressed their appreciation for Hua'an's decision.

Soon, Saladi's caravan reached the sea not far from Constantinople and was intercepted by five or six Roman ships.

"Saladi, my friend, this time, you're a little early!" A Roman general stood at the bow of the warship, looked at Saladi, and said politely.

Saladi waved his hand to the Roman general, and said happily: "Old man, you must be missing me, this time I went to the East, I specially brought you three carts of specialties, all of which are the best silk and porcelain in the East, I hope you will accept it." ”

When the Roman general heard this, he was very happy, nodded, and said loudly: "Okay! I will definitely accept what Salad has given me, but the merchant ship still has to check it, and this is my job, and it will not be delayed for a long time. ”

Saladi smiled and nodded, "Know, it's your job, okay!" Check it out! However, this time there is more goods, so let your men be careful not to break it. ”

The Roman general nodded, looked at the soldiers behind him, and said loudly: "Board the ship for inspection, move lightly, don't damage my friend's cargo." ”

"Okay, General." When the Roman soldiers heard this, they jumped on more than a dozen merchant ships in turn and examined them roughly.

Just as these Roman soldiers jumped onto the merchant ship, Saladi's men in the cabin immediately took out a lot of Roman gold coins and stuffed them into the hands of these Roman soldiers, telling them to handle them with care and not to damage the silk and porcelain.

These Roman soldiers were also acting on orders, and at this time they were naturally in a good mood after receiving Saladi's gold coins, and after a casual look, they walked out of the cabin.

"General, the cabin is full of cargo, nothing suspicious." One of the soldiers shouted.

The Roman general nodded and ordered, "Okay, come back!" Saladi, you will definitely make a lot of money on this trip! Ha ha! ”

Saladi also smiled and said happily: "Yes, this time there are more goods, and you will definitely make a lot of money, but Saladi will not forget his friends." ”

The Roman general nodded with satisfaction and ordered: "Escort the caravan into the port, there are too many ships in the civil port, enter the military port." ”

"Yes, General." The soldiers under his command received the order and immediately led the way in front and escorted Saladi's fleet into the military port.

Saladi was very happy when he heard this, and in this way, Hua'an's plan would be more likely to succeed, and he would naturally get more benefits in the future.

And the reason why the Roman generals let Saladi's fleet enter the military port, on the one hand, is that there are indeed too many ships in the civil port, and it takes a long time to unload the goods in the civil port, in order to take care of Saladi, so let Saladi's fleet drive directly into the military port, at the same time, Saladi has promised to give him three trucks of oriental goods, if he goes to the civilian port, he also needs to send soldiers to pull the goods, which will have a very bad impact on the people of Constantinople, and it is much more convenient to let Saladi's fleet stop in the military port, and, He could tell from the depth of the merchant ship's draft that Saladilla had a lot of cargo, and if possible, he could knock on one more bamboo bar to get more money.

Of course, this Roman general would never have dreamed that Saladi's more than ten large merchant ships would hide 3,000 elite Jin soldiers, otherwise, he would not dare to let Saladi's merchant ships enter the military port.

Soon, Saladi's merchant ships entered the military port of Constantinople and docked at a wharf, just as it was getting late and it was time for dinner.

Saladi left half of his men to look after the merchant ships, and led the other half to the harbor.

"Saladi, it's already evening, and there is a row of restaurants next to the military port, let's go eat something!" Habula spoke.

Saladi was stunned for a moment, looked at Habula, and said softly: "What about the people below, do they have something to eat?" ”

Habula nodded and said softly, "Don't worry! Their meals were already prepared at the time of departure, however, the bottom cabin was very dull, and it was estimated that the smell was strong, and they would have a hard time. ”

Salade smiled and nodded, and suddenly noticed that the Roman officer just now had also landed on the shore and walked towards him, which made Salade suddenly think of a clever plan, and smiled proudly.

"Saladi, my friend, are you going to eat?" The Roman officer said politely.

Saladi nodded and said softly, "Yes, my friend, why don't you go with us!" I'm in for a treat, Saladi, by the way, Habula, and carry the gift I gave to the general ashore. ”

Habula answered, and beckoned to his subordinates on the merchant ship, who understood, and immediately led a group of people to carry large and small boxes to the shore.

"General, these are the top silk and porcelain in the East, as well as Chinese herbs such as ginseng and deer antler, as well as some spices and other items, which are given to the general as gifts." Saladi pointed to the large and small boxes, said politely, and motioned for Habula to open the boxes one by one.

When the boxes were opened one by one, the eyes of the Roman generals were straight, he was a person who knew the goods, and he could see at a glance that these items were very valuable goods, this time, the goods that Saladi gave him were at least three times more than the last time, but their value was more than ten times higher, which made the Roman generals very excited, and hurriedly thanked him: "Saladi, my friend, how can you spend so much money for me?" These things must be worth a lot of money. After saying that, he greedily picked up a gorgeous silk horse, and his eyes revealed a greedy gaze.

Saladi smiled, and said: "There is an old saying in the East called fighting righteousness and squandering wealth, since we are friends, these gifts are nothing, besides, this time we have more goods, and we have to count on the general to help maintain them, so as not to be robbed by thieves." ”

When the Roman general heard this, he hurriedly patted his chest and said: "Saladi, my friend, you can rest assured, these goods are placed in the military port, and no thief dares to make up his mind, unless they don't want to live." ”

Saladi nodded, and said with a straight face: "General, the soldiers have worked hard all day, today I have a treat, let the soldiers go to dinner together!" ”

"Okay, since my friend has a treat, then we're welcome." The Roman general said loudly.

Subsequently, the Roman general led his nearly 1,000 soldiers, followed behind Saladi and others, and walked to the largest restaurant in the vicinity, ready to eat a hot meal.

There were only more than 1,000 people under the command of this Roman general, except for the dozens of soldiers who stayed in the port, the rest of the soldiers went to eat, and in Constantinople, there were several naval ports, and the Roman naval soldiers in these ports together amounted to 5,000 people, accounting for half of the troops defending Constantinople, which shows the importance of coastal defense to Constantinople.

In the largest restaurant in the neighborhood, Saladi ordered the best wine and food, and asked the restaurant to keep serving the food and wine, so that these Roman soldiers could drink and stagger, so as to facilitate the operation of the elite of the Jin army.

The Roman soldiers thought they had taken advantage of it, and they all ate and drank without their lives, and they were not wary of Saladei, after all, most of them knew Saladei and knew him very well as his character, and they believed that Saladei would not harm them.

Looking at all the Roman soldiers, one by one, they were drinking crookedly, Saladi and Habula looked at each other, and they both smiled knowingly, they were originally worried that the Roman soldiers would be more vigilant, but now it seems that these Roman soldiers are simply confused, and they don't know what is going on when they are killed.

Because of the abundance of food and wine, the banquet lasted for more than two hours, until it was close to midnight, when the well-fed and well-fed Roman soldiers returned to the military port and ran into the winning tent to rest.

Since most of the soldiers were drunk, for this reason, the dozens of Roman soldiers who were on duty during the day had to continue to be on duty until the next morning, which made them very dissatisfied, after all, the other soldiers were drunk, and not only did they not eat the food, but they also had to continue to stand guard, which would be very unhappy on anyone.

Saladi was very happy to see this, and he immediately sent Habula to the restaurant to buy a lot of food and drink, and gave them to the Roman soldiers on duty.

These Roman soldiers, who rarely had access to the best restaurants, naturally could not resist the temptation of wine and food, and gathered together to eat and drink, completely forgetting their mission.

"Habula, you see it! This is the will of heaven to destroy the Roman Empire, they are all drunk, and when the elite of the Jin army comes out later, they can easily clean them up and attack the city. Saladi whispered.

Habula nodded and said: "Yes, Saladi, this time, we have done the right thing, as long as we can break through Constantinople, the king of the north will definitely pay more attention to us in the future." ”

"Okay, it's almost time, open the bottom of the cabin and let the elite of the Jin army start moving." Saladi ordered softly.

"Okay, Saladi, I'll go get ready." Habula said and ran to the merchant ship and gave Saladi's order. (To be continued.) )
