Chapter 496
Goodbye to the Grand Leader
Dear readers, please don’t laugh and ask for a red vote, please book reviews!
"Brother Martini, I want to ask you to stay in Alexandria. You know you are the person I trust the most, and I guess Alexandria is related to whether I will be able to come back in the future."
Abdul Martini frowned, curled his lips but did not speak, expressing his dissatisfaction with Zhao Fubo not taking him to Europe.
Zhao Fubo knew that his decision had provoked this elder brother, but what he was worried about was that if he had not arranged someone he trusted in Alexandria, he would not be at ease to go to Europe like this.
"I said Brother Martini, do you think I want to go to Europe? Is it because of Qilier, if it wasn't for Frederick II, if it wasn't for the need to explore the trade routes, to be honest, Brother Martini, I would rather go back to Huangsha City with you!"
It should be said that the trip to Europe was not what Zhao Fubo wanted to go. First, it was to open up the trade route, and second, it was to find firm allies in Europe. Only in this way can the process of wealth accumulation in the future be faster and the sources of materials can increase.
Abdul Martini still protested silently against Zhao Fubo's persuasion. He liked the feeling on the battlefield, and as a young man, he also liked to travel further, which were probably the nature of young man.
Zhao Fubo felt that it was a little difficult to convince Abdul Martini. After all, he did not take him to the battlefield when he was in Aden. When he arrived here, he finally went to the battlefield, but he could not follow Zhao Fubo to Europe, which made Abdul Martini depressed enough.
"Brother Martini, aren't you worried that I won't get on the shore when I come back? In this case, your sister..."
Abdul Martini stopped frowning at this time, and he brought a bitter look on his face. He didn't understand why Zhao Fubo, a bastard, always threatened himself with his sister. He was very fond of his sister Eliya, so he naturally could not let his sister lose his fiancé.
"Okay, okay, just do it like this, but I really hate you. I threaten me with Eliya every time."
Abdul Martini's helpless words made Zhao Fubo feel relieved. He knew that Abdul Martini was not satisfied with his arrangement, but he was also quite helpless.
Just as they were talking, the city of Damietta was already far away. In just one day, the bodies in the city had been cleared out. Only the ruins of the houses destroyed by the explosion showed that there had been a cruel war here.
Perhaps because they became allies, the French Crusaders were no longer afraid when they saw Zhao Fubo and his men. They just looked at Zhao Fubo and the main combat cavalry he led with a strange look. When Zhao Fubo's eyes glanced at them, they all bent down and saluted respectfully to Zhao Fubo.
Zhao Fubo came to this city again and had two things to do. One was that he wanted to meet Louis IX's wife, Queen Margaret, and probably also showed to her that he was not a black magician.
There is another thing that Zhao Fubo remembered that Teacher Martin said that the English longbowmen have good bow and arrow skills. If possible, he would also want to get some longbowmen under his command. If they can cooperate with their main combat cavalry, it would be a good group of troops.
"Your Excellency Governor, you are so trustworthy, you arrived so early!"
Louis IX and his wife Queen Margaret were already greeted by Zhao Fubo in front of their residence in Damietta City. Although Zhao Fubo was the winner, they knew that they would be his father-in-law and mother-in-law in the future, so naturally they would not be too polite to him.
"Your Majesty, Queen, I'm sorry for having been tired of you and you two have been waiting for a long time."
After receiving her husband's urgent letter, Queen Margaret brought her Italian soldiers who protected her almost overnight. At first, she had absolute hatred for Zhao Fubo. But when she heard everything from her husband, she had to let go of her prejudice against a pagan.
When Zhao Fubo came to the house and saw the banquet they had placed, he felt like laughing. Perhaps because both Arabs and Crusaders, teppanyaki have begun to march, which is a new way to eat by Teacher Martin.
At the same time, the white wine produced on the Island of Ferai, which is very popular. Natural pipes, paper boxes and other supplies show the strong vitality of the Island of Ferai products.
With them, two other Knights who had been released but were still captive. Both of them had neither faced well, and they were probably the reason why they were frustrated when they negotiated with Louis IX.
As for why they stayed in the house, it was because when they were arrested from the bed that night, they were handed directly to Louis IX by Zhao Fubo's subordinates. In the panic at that time, no one should have seen their capture. Therefore, they had never left the room these days, and they were also looking forward to Zhao Fubo's arrival.
When he was outside the door, Louis IX quietly told Zhao Fubo when he entered the door. What the two commanders of the Knights were worried about was that their captive status would cause serious losses to their prestige.
They begged Louis IX to plead with Zhao Fubo, or not to shock the kings of Europe for their compensation. If this is the case, they would probably have no shame to see anyone again.
"Governor!"
"Governor!"
When the two saw Zhao Fubo, some hope appeared on their frustrated faces. After all, as the large leader of the Knights Templar and the Knights of St. John, they were captured by a pagan. The words they passed on were definitely the most fatal blow to their lifelong affairs.
However, when Zhao Fubo took off his helmet, the two of them felt the darkness in front of them at the same time. Because Zhao Fubo's eyes were cold and hard, and there was no slight kindness.
With some doubts, the two slowly twisted their necks and went to see Louis IX quietly. They didn't know what Louis IX and Zhao Fubo talked about, and what their future destiny should be.
"Please sit down!"
Zhao Fubo really had another feeling at this moment, which was completely different from his feeling on the battlefield. Two large commanders who were famous in Europe and the Crusaders treated themselves like this, which was really good.
"It seems that the Crusaders of Europe said that the Europeans had to fight a few more times. They were afraid, and things were much easier to do! They didn't intermarry with the pagans, Innocent IV, see that I went to Europe this time and do your best!"
