The Crescent of the Sultan

Justinian took off his cloak, shook the snow off it, and after taking the tea handed over by Kamran, he did not answer in a hurry, but asked.

"Tell me more about the Armenian and see if it matches our intelligence."

"yes."

Kamran did not show any slights, not only because of the opponent's identity, but also because of the opponent's strength.

The Kurds, who have lived between Persia and the Ottoman Empire all year round, attach great importance to martial virtue, and Justinian's ability to defeat him and Dial in one fell swoop is naturally worthy of respect.

"The specific thing is this. This Armenian came to us a few days ago, but he first went to see the Emir of Elam and several other principalities, and then came to Dial and me.

Considering His Majesty's consistent trust in me and Dial, we did not report directly to the high gate. Instead, we stabilized each other and waited for His Majesty to send someone.

According to my investigation during this period, at least four of the sixteen principalities are preparing for war, and many of their weapons are muskets and even artillery.

The most rampant one is the Principality of Elam, which has almost mobilized 7,000 troops, which is not something the Principality of Elam can support.

I think there are Armenian financiers behind this matter, and this businessman is just a pawn on the surface.

While listening to Kamlan's answer, Justinian fiddled with the fire next to him. Sparks splashed out from the fire and dissipated in the air from time to time.

Seeing the other party's appearance, Kamran smiled bitterly at Dial and then said.

"I wonder if you think this matter should be dealt with."

Kamran knew that Gaomen's temperament was not entirely in line with the Sultan's wishes.

Haji Pasha and Yusuf Pasha were two grand viziers with very different personalities.

The latter is a typical veteran in officialdom. He has been in the officialdom for decades. He is experienced, cunning and resourceful, and he is well versed in the way of protecting himself wisely.

Kamran remembered that he had met the other person once. The other person's face was haggard, with traces of time, but his eyes were sharp and shrewd, as cunning as an old fox.

He always wears a seemingly ordinary robe, and his rickety body is hidden in the robe.

He was eloquent and expressive, making almost everyone feel kind.

But Kamran was different. He only had fear when he came into contact with the other party, just like facing a poisonous snake with its tongue sticking out.

Yusuf Pasha gave him the feeling that no matter what difficulties he faced, he could always find a way.

He is good at seizing opportunities, keenly aware of changes in political winds, always able to adjust his position in a timely manner, and maintains close contact with the right people.

He is good at dancing, can get along with almost all kinds of people, and can calm almost any political disputes in the empire.

Therefore, the relationship between Yusuf Pasha and His Majesty has always been very good. The two can be said to be of the same mind, but the new Grand Vizier is very different.

This Haji Pasha is simply an extreme hardliner, and his methods in Egypt are terrifying. If the other party still maintains this attitude towards the Kurds, Kamran will not cooperate with Sudan no matter what. .

For the Kurds, the continuation of the tribe is the most important. This is also the reason why he cooperates with the Sudan. He wants to lead his tribe to climb up.

Justinian stopped stirring the fire. He took out his Greek sword and struck the fur on the chair. The fur was immediately divided into two parts. Justinian picked up a piece of fur and threw it to Cam. orchid.

“This is the Elamite principality and all the principalities that cooperate with the Armenians, and you can decide whether they live or die, either directly into the fire or let others inherit these principalities.

This is the grace His Majesty gives you. Seize the opportunity. After all, Your Majesty is not so kind all the time. "

Justinian immediately grabbed his cloak, took out a new mask and put it on his face, turned around and left the camp.

“Have a good talk with this Armenian man and I will be here all this time.

If you have any information, just pass it to the people I sent here. After all, it's hard to say whether your place has been infiltrated by the other party. As for the secret code, it is "The glory of Allah will be spread by the Sultan."

Remember, don’t alert the enemy in the first place, it’s best to lure them out and catch them all.

Your Majesty doesn't want to leave any hidden dangers. Once something like this happens, I won't be the one to solve it. You don't want Haji Pasha to take over. "

As soon as Justinian's words fell, his entire figure disappeared into the dense snow, with only a few very light footprints proving that someone had indeed been here just now.

Dial's face was a little uncertain. He looked at Justinian's leaving figure in the snow and couldn't help clenching his fists.

Looking at the somewhat annoyed Dial, Kamlan smiled and pulled him back to the tent.

"Diyar, there is nothing to be angry about, our security is really hard to compliment.

After all, this Justinian broke into our camp alone and defeated the two of us alone, or defeated us mercilessly. "

Dial said in a muffled voice.

"Kamran, you know, I'm not angry about this. My skills are inferior to others. There's nothing to say. You don't need to say such words to comfort me.

I was just thinking, what does it mean to give us grace? What is kindness? What do you mean by not leaving hidden dangers?

Kamran, he sounded like an owner talking to his dog, and we were the dogs trying to get kicked.

But do we need to be so mean?

We have lived here for generations, and the Kurds are the masters here. If we are really worried, we can drag Mohammed Qajar, find Catherine II, and bring the emirate of Drameye and Oman together. Pull up and fight him here. "

Kamran's expression gradually became serious. After listening to Dial's complaints, he said solemnly.

"You have to understand, Dial, we can indeed do this, but what happens after we do it?

Could we have achieved better results?

Do you think these guys will respect us more than the Ottoman Empire?

Stop dreaming, if the Ottoman Empire fails, he will only be distressed by the increased defense pressure in the eastern part of the empire.

But what about us? We have to deal with more forces, give out more benefits, and be their vanguard in containing the Ottoman Empire.

If the Ottoman Empire succeeds, then we are all screwed, and we cannot risk the future of our tribe.

Just bear with it, everything will be fine when I take you all to a higher position. "

Dial didn't speak any more, and his clenched fists gradually loosened, either because he was persuaded by Kamran or because he felt powerless to resist.
