Ding Yi, who was indulging in sadness and loneliness, already had a breath in his chest. Listening to Liu Ji's words, he took the case: "Good, you will be the anger of the husband, and you will not fake others!" "That is, Ding Yi will personally go down to fight with Mehmed II, instead of going down to duel with his own representatives, or send a hundred and ten men to fight to the death.

"Sir!" Liu Ji was so frightened that he knelt down on the spot outside, kowtowed, and said, "Han Wangning won the world by fighting his wit!" Today, the new dynasty ships are strong and sharp, although Mr. has the courage to believe in the cloth, there is no need to personally venture into danger! "For Liu Ji, it is rare to be able to advise to this point. He didn't want to go against Ding Yi's will, but it felt really unreliable.

"Needless to say, I've made up my mind." Ding Yi didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore, "I want to get rid of this fang for a long time!" ”

Liu Ji had no choice but to go down and consult with the envoy of Muhammad II about what to do. Listening to Ding Yi's words, the Ottomans were also shocked, but they were not as nervous as Liu Ji. Because as mentioned above, duels were very popular in this era, and there were also invitations to duels between the monarchs of the two countries.

Of course, when the time comes, will the monarchs of both countries really be willing to fulfill their promises? There are also many people who break this contract. Therefore, the envoy did not talk to Liu Ji too much, and went back directly to find Mehmed II to return to his life. What the envoy did not expect was that Mehmed II laughed and said: "But how dare you say such a big thing with a sharp firearm?" Okay, just go out in person, don't fake others! ”10f

So the envoy went to Smyrna, discussed the details with Liu Ji, and decided this sensational duel in Europe.

In fact, there were many people on Muhammad II's side who dissuaded him from doing so. But they were quickly persuaded by Mehmed II: "If there are no firearms." Can Poseidon get Smyrna? This is about to come out, and everyone feels justified. for in the army of the hundreds of thousands of Smyrnanah. can engage in hand-to-hand combat with Ding Yi's troops. Hardly.

Even the chance to shoot with a bow is very rare, and a rifle, even if it is a rifle driven by black fire*, it is also a rifled rifle, and its accuracy is many times stronger than that of a bow and arrow. Rather, it is the amount of body that is consumed to shoot a gun, the preparation action, etc., which is also countless times faster than that of shooting an arrow with a bow; Not to mention the crushing in the firing range? It has not even entered the range of the bow and arrow, but has already entered the effective aiming range of the rifle!

So the Ottomans were not convinced! I'm not convinced. They believed that if there were no firearms, Ding Yi's troops should be like other countries and peoples conquered by the Ottomans, screaming and moaning under their iron hooves and scimitars.

The words of Mehmed II tickled the hearts of the people, so the voice of persuasion was faint and was quickly drowned out.

Instead, there were two requirements for dueling: first, firearms were banned, and for fairness, the Ottoman side did not use bows and arrows; The second is divided into two scenes, one of which was done by Ding Yi and Muhammad II. The other was a hundred-man cavalry duel against a hundred.

"No." Liu Ji refused at the first time, he was not Ding Yi, if Ding listened to someone, maybe the sequelae of battlefield creation, depression and other mental illnesses - or should it be said that intermittent psychotic episodes. I will also agree to come down. Liu Ji would definitely not do this.

What kind of face do you want? Talk to Liu Ji about face? Known as Liu Mian in history, he is not afraid of bullets! The key is interests, as long as there are interests. What hell does Liu Ji care about? So not only did he immediately refuse, but he also mocked the messenger of Muhammad II: "Why don't you cut off your hands?" For the sake of fairness, we cut our hair and acted as the head. Then the two sides duel fairly, I don't know what to think? ”

The messenger immediately found that the person in front of him did not look good at looking good at his eyebrows and eyes, which was more shameless than shameless words, and he really should not be underestimated!

This is not a mockery, Liu Ji said it very seriously, he really talked about it as a contract option.

How can people be so shameless? Well, Liu Ji is just capable.

So of course I couldn't talk about it, the envoy of Muhammad II didn't care at all, he thought that if it dragged on for a few more days, Ding Yi's side would be finished, and he would have to withdraw his troops to the east, so that the Ottoman Empire would not recover the lost territory without blood, but also have a lizi; And he has face, and he can claim that Ding Yi is afraid of a duel, so he fled east!

Of course, Liu Ji is not afraid of delay, because he thinks that if it drags on, reinforcements from Huaxia will come, and the situation in the Americas will slowly improve. And Wan An is not only self-sufficient in food in South America, but also has a good expansion, and even has spare strength, trained an indigenous regiment, and sent a ship to North America to support Wei Wencheng.

Of course, an indigenous regiment can't help anything, and it's more that Wan An is showing off his ability to govern the world and the army.

But as long as Wei Wencheng can maintain the situation in North America, Wan'an's side will continue to expand, and the demographic dividend and resource dividend will start to transfuse blood to Smyrna little by little, and the situation will definitely get better and better. And the Rong Yi Division led by Wang Yue on the side of Ceuta can be liberated. If Rong Yishi and Wang Yue were to join the Ottoman side, the situation would definitely improve, at least they would be more active and strong.

This is also the reason why Liu Ji repeatedly dissuaded Ding Yi from ignoring this duel, there is no need, just drag it on.

Drag is a science, originally in history, Li Dongyang relied on this drag trick to drag Liu Jin to death.

Coupled with Liu Ji, who can really be shameless at any time, it stands to reason that the two parties should continue to talk endlessly.

Dante Yi had a seizure at this time: "Firearms, bows and arrows are forbidden, but!" I duel with Mehmed II, forbidden with a qiē armor; As for the duel of 100 people, if the same firearms are forbidden bows and arrows, they will fight on foot and will not be able to use armor. If he dares to respond, he will set a date with this, and blood will be splattered in five steps! ”

Liu Ji, Wen Fatzi, and Cao Jixiang tried to persuade them to no avail. In fact, Xu Bin went back to Huaxia again, Yu Qian was far away in Suez, saying that he was strongly persuased, in addition to Wen Fatzi, Liu Ji and Cao Jixiang, the two, are unlikely to dare to spray Ding Yi, and it is very conscientious to be able to admonish, so in the end, Ding Yi decided to consult with the envoy of Muhammad II.

The Ottomans could only fly back with Pegasus, but when Mehmed II listened, he sneered: "Does Poseidon think that I will be frightened off by big words?" "He thinks that Ding Yi's proposal that the two sides are not wearing armor is purely to scare people! Otherwise, why would a hundred people fight against each other and can't help but be armored?

The Chinese beside Muhammad II, who had helped him teach the killers and infiltrate the Smyrna line, told him: "Ding Rongcheng used a long knife in the Tumu Fort to make a name for himself!" When it has not risen, it is even more in the rivers and lakes of China, and there is a chivalrous name of Kyushu that is thunderous and thunderous, which must not be underestimated! ”

But Mehmed II did not listen, nor did the Ottoman ministers.

There's a reason why they don't listen: "Where is the lame wolf?" "The lame wolf they are talking about is the Timurid Empire.

The Timurid Empire, even if the Ottomans did not take Constantine as quickly as in the original history, the Timurid Empire was still bullied by the Ottomans in Asia Minor. So he had to flee east and turn to Tianzhu in an attempt to return to Huaxia.

The Ottomans believed that Warat was just the same character as the Timurid Empire, and even if Ding Yi defeated them, it would not be a problem. They do not think so, but it is based on facts and logic. Not only was the lame Timurid Khanate bullied by them, but the Crimean Khanate, which originally belonged to the Golden Horde, also became an Ottoman subordinate. [It's the cutest prosecutor general's Crimea]

So the Ottomans did not think that the Tatars were very powerful.

"Just set a duel date as he asked!" This is the reply of Mehmed II.

The monarchs of both sides personally intervened, so neither the Ottoman envoys nor Liu Ji could drag on.

This duel was decided, divided into two games, one was a hundred-man duel, foot combat, firearms, bows and arrows were banned; One is a duel between the two monarchs, a one-man duel without armor, and the weapon is a sword.

This is known in Europe as the "Battle of the Madmen".

The upper class has little attention to the duel of 100 people, or there is no one to talk about it at all; But the duel between the two monarchs is the focus of countless people's attention. Because this is really going to kill people, it is likely that when it is too late to admit defeat, it will be hacked to death!

"There will be people who will give up, there will be people who will give up at the last minute." Louis XI commented on this, and Louis XI, who was rejected by Ding Yi for marriage, was not too angry. At least he didn't come out, "The trust of the Sultan and Augustus put the duel in Paris, so it is inconvenient for me to judge either side." But I'm sure someone will back down at the end, after all, life is so fragile in the face of a cold blade. They are all very intelligent people who do not fail to understand this. ”

When he speaks of sultan, of course, he is referring to Mehmed II, and Augustus is referring to Ding I.

And the bold Charlie, in his letter to his daughter Mary, is to be more explicit: "After he has retreated, you should end this trip and return to your hometown." Not all people can use the harpsichord as well as the sword. You may not understand this yet, but as a great musician who can compose the Moonlight Concerto, I think he has this wisdom. ”

This clearly points out that Ding Yi will definitely back down in the end. Because he mentioned the score that Ding Yi "composed".

At a time when the Western high society was in a carnival for the duel between the two monarchs, a large convoy of transports arrived in the Mukudushu, and it was obviously difficult to attract their attention. No one noticed that after the flotilla had anchored in Mukudu, one of the destroyers set sail quickly towards Smyrna, without even making any stop at the Yamen of the Suez Canal.
