Chapter 794 On the way to Milan

Things in the Persian Gulf are definitely not a trivial matter. Maybe you should blame Sanniang for the traditional concept of "harmony in the family will prosper" or Zhao Fubo for his mercifulness. But overall, who should you tell me if you don't talk about benevolence and righteousness to your own people?

Europeans, Arabs and even ***ers?

These problems are not a problem for Zhao Fubo, who is far away in Europe. He is facing Milan. And even if Azam Tulansha Sultan wants to solve this problem, it will be impossible for him to organize an army equipped with "reincarnation cannons" and "grenade launchers" in just a few months.

Especially when Zhao Fubo gave Louis IX and Conrad IV muskets, he also planned to supply this weapon to King Baibours Bendugadari and Sultan of Azam Tulansha in Egypt. As for fear or worry! Did Zhao Fubo hear Martin guarantee that the craftsman artillery of the Song Dynasty could be successfully researched, and should he be afraid of modern rifles with the same structure as the golden gun in Sophia's hand?

Zhao Fubo is definitely not an emperor who can win people with virtue. He only has one method to support allies, conquer enemies, and occupy raw material production and markets.

At this moment, he led his small army and the 2,500 elite troops led by Prince Manfred. He headed north from Genoa to Milan. Although the straight line distance was only 100 kilometers, he had to cross a series of mountains. Although it would not be too difficult for cavalry to cross the mountains, Zhao Fubo's big carts were in quite trouble.

For this reason, the Genoa parliament provided Zhao Fubo with a batch of horses for him to increase the two horses that originally pulled the cart to four. Among them, the vehicles equipped with crossbows were not very heavy. Instead, the baggage trucks were things that made people easily tired.

Especially when they were tired, they were still trying to capture castles with soldiers on the way, which was even more so.

"Your Majesty, on the way to Milan, there are many castles with troops stationed, guarding every road to Milan. Although the road we are walking now is relatively close, it is also the road with the most castles!"

The consul Cristiano, or the consul at this moment, was an Italian scholar who was brought by Zhao Fubo. He rode a young Spanish horse with red nostrils and a beautiful and narrow face.

Perhaps in order to reflect the knowledge of his scholars, he was with Zhao Fubo along the way, and he continued to introduce Italy in English and Genoa's special status.

"It doesn't matter. We can hit it all the way. I guess our ammunition should be enough. I was just thinking, is there any relatively flat road from here to Milan? If so, our 'road' can be extended all the way. In the future, our goods can be transported to the whole of Europe without stopping!"

After a few days of getting along, scholar Cristiano knew that Zhao Fubo was really interested in European land. And this time his expedition was just for his father-in-law. If there was no such relationship, I believe that he would almost be welcomed by all Europeans when he went to Europe as long as he took out a match.

After about 80 kilometers away, they had already left the land controlled by Genoa. If they went there, they would be the first Milanese castle they encountered. In this area where the city-state-like states were common, the number of buildings in the castle increased, and castles were built on many strategic points.

I believe that Milan had already known that Zhao Fubo led his army ashore at this time, but their main army was fighting against the royal army led by Emperor Frederick II. It was impossible to quickly send a large number of troops in this direction, and it was impossible for them to come to the junction of Genoa so quickly.

But it was really a castle that was worried about. It was built on a cliff on one side of the road. With the bows and arrows in the castle and the stone thrower, it could easily prevent the passage of this road. Even the large amount of food and weapons stored in the castle could also be used to fight for a long time until reinforcements arrived.

Of course, the above situations refer to the Genoa army, or other troops from Europe. For Zhao Fubo, it does not pose any threat at all.

"Muk, send the guards and sniper archers up the mountain to guard, I don't want to be raided. The whole army rested for half an afternoon and asked everyone else to sleep. I guess we might be fighting at night!"

Although Muke was tortured by Xiao Hongyan, he still had only four words when facing Zhao Fubo.

"Yes, sir!"

Cristiano knew that in the "Song Yulin Army" in front of him, not only were their soldiers very young, but their generals were also very young. But if there were any conversations, they would find that these guys had read a lot of books.

Although the "primary school cultural level" is really awful to modern times, 800 years ago, the systematic "primary school cultural education" was definitely at the same level as a university scholar compared to Europe where most people are illiterate.

"Your Majesty, you... don't you plan to capture this fortress while dawn? Fighting in the mountains, for us who are not familiar with the terrain..."

Now as a scholar who "assisted" Zhao Fubo, Cristiano has put aside the responsibilities of his former consul. He is committed to giving advice to his "new master" for Genoa.

After hearing about Zhao Fubo's ability to fight, especially the legend of "The God of Lamp Aladdin", Wang Wentong just sat beside him, twisting his beard and smiling silently. He was quite familiar with the art of war and understood that Zhao Fubo was just planning to bring his experience in the "Arab Empire".

After all, in this era, Europeans who were unsavvy and Arabs knew what the Kongming lantern was. I believe that anyone who saw this scene for the first time would be fascinated by it. This method is the best cover for soldiers to act.

"Don't worry, Lord Cristiano, I guess you and know what 'Aladdin Great' means. It was a legend that was widely circulated in the Arab Empire. According to legend, in ancient times, a young man..."

Although Alisa is a princess, she has not had many airs to block the palace maids for many years. This made Cristiano feel a little more favorable to their lord. I hope that this princess lord can always maintain this appearance.
