, This Ming Dynasty is too fierce

Located in Istanbul on the Bosphorus, he also has a more resounding name, Constantinople, which was once the capital of the Roman Empire. Although after 1453, Europeans preferred to call this Roman Empire the "Byzantine Empire", at least before that, it was the Roman Empire, the capital of the Roman Empire.

Now, this once center of European civilization has become the capital of the Ottomans. From then on, the Roman Empire only existed in history.

There is no more Rome in the world. Even if Europeans stubbornly insist on calling this place Constantinople, this fact cannot be changed.

Early in the morning, morning prayers came from the Hagia Sophia Cathedral. The believers prayed in this church as before. It was the third church built by Byzantine Emperor Justinian I in 532 AD. With the support of the strong national strength of the Roman Empire, it was designed by physicist Isidor of Miles and Antimos of the mathematician Trales. However, the church was only its past. In 1453, the Ottoman Turkish Sultan Mohammed II invaded Constantinople. He ordered all Byzantine murals in the church to be covered with mortar, and all Christian statues were moved out, and then this place became the Aya Sophia Tianfang Temple.

From then on, like this city, there were prayers from the Tianfang Cultists every day. However, they did not know that a fleet had quietly sailed across the Dardanelles in the early morning and entered the "wide" Maramar Sea. It lined up in the entrance to the Bosphorus Strait, and its muzzles were directly aimed at Istanbul.

A European-style manor sits by the strait. This so-called manor is actually the residence prepared by the Ottoman Empire for diplomatic envoys in various countries to the Ottoman court. In this era, there were no embassies or embassies. The envoys of various countries lived in the palace, but here, as pagans, of course, they were not qualified to live in the palace of the Sultan. So they were arranged in this manor, but this also allowed these envoys to hold dinners together often, even if they were breakfast, they would get together.

However, there are not many envoys here, especially after the envoys from Venice, Genoa, Spain and other countries left one after another, the manor became increasingly deserted, and now only envoys from the Netherlands and France are left.

William Senger would turn his eyes to the cathedral, and he said, looking at the four tall spires symbolizing conquest around the cathedral.

"Hanges, if one day the city is recovered by Christians, will there really be a priest who walks out of the walls of Hagia Sophia?"

The story William said has been circulating in Europe for more than 200 years. From the day it fell, this legend has existed. It is said that when the city fell, when the pagans entered the church, the priest who was presiding on the mass opened the wall and entered the wall. It is said that when Christians regained the city, they would come out of the wall.

"That's just a legend."

Hangers shrugged and said.

"Besides, in the future, it is very likely that the one who conquered this city will be Chinese, and they are not Christians!"

"China……"

William thought for a while.

"To be honest, I don't know whether the decision to save the Chinese envoy was right or wrong, but..."

Staring at the cathedral, William said again.

"I think if Türkiye is destroyed by the Chinese, it may not be a good thing for Europe."

"It is certainly not a good thing. The Turks may have been threatening Europe, but they stopped in Vienna. But the Chinese, God can testify, let alone Vienna, even Paris cannot stop them."

In fact, as the French envoy to Ottoman, Hangers has always believed that the existence of Ottoman was a good thing for France. At least, they restrained the power of Habsburg.

"Paris?"

William mocked.

"Prince Kong Dai is an official enthroned by the Chinese emperor. They have long been loyal to the Chinese emperor. The Chinese emperor did not even use one soldier, so France was in a split."

"Unless the king is willing to go to war with China, the status quo can only be maintained."

Hangers did not forget to expose the Dutch scars.

"Aren't you very depressed now? All Europe knows that the English merchant ships are flying the Chinese flag, but you can only watch the English merchant ships sailing on the sea and dare not attack them at all. Even if they arrive in Amsterdam, they will come and leave. You can only watch..."

William sighed helplessly and said, "I feel good about each other's shortcomings."

"The English are so cunning!"

"It's not that the English are too cunning, it's that the Chinese stand on their strength and talk to us with their strength. Unless our strength exceeds them, we can only accept their rules of the game? Now challenge them?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Hangers sighed helplessly.

"I don't know who else can challenge them except the Turks."

"But God bless you, let the Turks defeat the Chinese!"

Europeans also have this idea when driving wolf to swallow tigers, and they have done this in history. Now, it is inevitable that they will have such expectations.

Just as Hangers's words fell, he suddenly heard a howling sound coming from far away and coming from the air.

"Listen..."

Hangers hurriedly stood up. He first looked at the sky, and listened to the dull whistling sound, and then looked at the sea in shock.

The sea seems to be very calm... calm?

But this voice...

"What's the sound?"

Looking up at the sky, William's face was full of suspicion and confusion, and the sound in the air was a bit strange, familiar, but also a little strange.

It's a bit like... it's like a bronze bell "buzzing" in the air, cutting through the sky.

"It's a shelling!"

Suddenly, William screamed in horror.

"Chinese!"

William shouted.

"It's the Chinese bombardment!"

Only the Chinese bombardment can make such a sound, which is the sound of bombardment shells slashing through the sky. Their fleet once used bombardment to teach the countries that tried to offend the Ming Dynasty again and again.

"Chinese? When did Chinese get here?"

"It's now!"

As his words fell, the next moment, a violent explosion rose from the direction of the palace.

The nearby Turkish guards and eunuchs were already staring at the explosion of smoke in horror, and they suddenly screamed loudly. Obviously, for them, what happened was far beyond their perception. After all, in their perception, Turkey is the most powerful country in the world.
