The Crescent of the Sultan

Suleiman looked in the direction pointed by the Sultan. Two men in new clothes were talking with strange accents.

"Your Majesty, are they?" Suleiman asked with some uncertainty.

"They are the Circassians. When Sherifali and Sultan came here, they didn't even know the official language of the empire and couldn't get used to wearing robes. But now, they have integrated into it, and they seem to be doing well. ,What do you think?"

Suleiman did not answer the conversation, but directed the conversation to another topic.

“Your Majesty, I wonder where you have placed them?

Adrianople or Edirne is the home base of the Fanar people. Most of the family members of the Circassian light cavalry regiment are here. As for the others, they are scattered. "

After this brief period of thinking, Suleiman had already figured out how to deal with the Kezan family.

He has already found a new partner. After the Balkan wealthy family was hit, it is certain that they want to make a comeback.

Your Majesty seems to have this intention. After all, it is impossible to let the Muslim family in the East dominate, and converting to Islam is the best opportunity. The reason why Suleiman found Leo was to invest, and the family on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is close. Directly let the family pass on forever.

So, at this time, when the Sultan asked about this matter, he directly cut off with the old loser of the Kezan family.

"Your Majesty, Anta Kozan is already an old fool. The last time you announced that you were marrying Miss Anna, he made a big lie. How could Sultana be an Orthodox Christian?"

Suleiman smiled and Selim asked with some confusion.

"Is that okay? Suleiman, the Kezan family seems to be allies with your Chapan. Aren't you still related by marriage?"

Suleiman said bluntly at this time.

"Your Majesty, allies are just allies after all. If you support so-called allies for the sake of one family's selfish interests, where will it put the country?

What's more, as subjects of the Ottoman Empire, being loyal to His Majesty is what we should do. "

Selim's face trembled when he heard these words. How did you learn to be so thick-skinned? Comparatively speaking, the Chapan family is indeed stronger than many wealthy families, but is it really good to speak so righteously?

Selim helplessly supported his forehead with his hands and said.

"In that case, go and solve the problem and call Sultan and the others over."

Suleiman immediately took the order and left. Selim stood on the terrace and began to wait, thinking about some questions.

Although France had declared war on Prussia and Austria, the Russians had not yet participated in the early stages of the anti-French war. Although the butterfly effect brought about by Selim had caused Poland's early demise, Russia's internal jurisdiction pressure had greatly increased.

After all, the Poles will only remember that they are Poles after their country is destroyed. If you ask why Poland under Austrian rule is not like Russia, it is very simple. The arrival of the Habsburgs is indeed liberating for the Poles, because the serfs Finally evolved into a human.

As for Tsarist Russia, a country that can raise taxes in Poland for several years, how can you expect the Poles to have a favorable impression of it?

In the era of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, although everyone was not human, they could still live.

The Russians work in this shabby place from time to time, but they can't survive. Why not revolt? Let's learn from Gandhi's non-violence and non-cooperation, right?

In this case, Catherine II will have to ask you if you are bullying the Cossack cavalry.

But the problem is that with Tsarist Russia and Catherine II being the best, it is really possible to take this opportunity to attack the emperor, which is uncomfortable.

Most of the current armies are new troops. Although they are trained with new methods, they have too little actual combat experience, which is not conducive to combat.

Of course, Selim didn't have any soldiers at hand.

After the Guards were eliminated, some surrenderers remained, plus some private soldiers from the original local wealthy families, estimated to number tens of thousands, as well as the watchdog-Polish Legion stationed in Moldavia.

If Ekaterina didn't send more troops and let Potemkin take command, Selim would like to say a few words - Damn it, I'm a big Wu territory, the lines are wrong.

But will Ekaterina go crazy? There is a reason why Selim chose to negotiate a peace quickly during the last Russian-Turkish war.

First, if the battle continues, the Russian army will be able to return immediately after defeating Sweden. At this time, the front line is already too long and it is difficult to fight.

Second, Selim had to save money for the subsequent industrialization. Once the cannon was fired, there was a thousand taels of gold. If such a large army stayed on the front line for one more day, its consumption would be astronomical. In this case, Selim naturally had to choose to negotiate a peace quickly. The Russian army could afford it, but he couldn't afford it.

The third issue is the domestic political environment. As long as the Guards has not yet been resolved, Selim has no extra energy and time to spend on competing with Russia. He must first pacify the domestic political groups and regain the leadership. .

While Selim was thinking about this, Sultan had already arrived. In front of Selim, this Circassian hero seemed particularly reserved.

"Your Majesty, I wonder why you are looking for me and Sharifali?"

Sultan suppressed his nervousness. After all, they had been here for a while and had asked to see them many times. However, the Sultan had never seen them once. It was not clear whether it was a blessing or a curse to be summoned suddenly today.

Selim just smiled kindly. Of course he could see Sultan's thoughts. The current effect was exactly what he intended. After all, how could it have such a good effect if he didn't show off the opponent.

Selim pointed downwards and said immediately.

"Both of them are heroes of the Circassian people. I have heard about them for a long time. However, I have been busy with government affairs recently and have never had time to meet. So I specially chose today to meet them. I hope I won't blame them."

Sultan said hurriedly.

“We Circassians were originally the most loyal subordinates of the Ottoman Empire, but in recent years, in order to guard against the Russians, we did not have too much energy to pay attention to our connections with the Empire.

Now that His Majesty can take us in when we are at the end of our rope, we are really grateful.

Besides, His Majesty is busy with affairs, and we, the mountain people of the Caucasus, are no longer old. How dare we disturb His Majesty? How can we dare to blame him? "

After saying that, Sultan directly pulled Sharifali, who was still in a daze, to kneel down.

After a while of confrontation, Selim couldn't help but feel happy because of his respectful language, smooth movements, and perfect posture. This guy is quite good at being a human being. Yes, he is worthy of training.

Selim helped the two men up and pointed into the distance.

"I just have a good show, I hope you two can enjoy it with me."

Although Sultan didn't understand what kind of medicine Selim was selling, he still persuaded Sherifali next to him to agree.

In the distance, the show led by Suleiman is about to begin
