This music box can not only play beautiful music, but also tell the time. It has always been naum Vasiliev''s favorite. Naum Vasiliev always took it out and listened to it when he rested at night. But at this time, naum Vasiliev had to give up his love in order to borrow soldiers.
"Lord Taiji, I also have a gift, a gift you will like," naum Vasiliev shouted to attract ah Yuqi''s attention.
"Oh? What else do you have?"
Ah Yuqi was still young after all. He was really attracted. He asked curiously.
"On my horse, on my horse! I''ll bring it to you. You''ll like it when you see it. It''s something that can move and scream," said naum Vasiliev.
"Then go and get it."
It sounds like something that can move and scream. Ah Yuqi is more interested. He ordered naum Vasiliev to bring it at once.
When naum Vasiliev left quickly to get the music box, ah Yuqi talked with Gru and kardan Zeling.
"Can move or bark? Isn''t it an interesting bird? I heard that a bird called parrot can speak human words." kardan Zeling guessed curiously.
"Yes, ah Yuqi. I also think it may be birds and animals." Gelu Lama echoed.
"Whatever it is, we''ll see later." ah Yuqi wiped his upper lip and said.
However, contrary to popular speculation, naum Vasiliev brought neither birds nor animals, but a small box in four directions. Inside the box, there is a small house made of wood. It is decorated with silk and cotton cloth, painted with vines, flowers and some figures of villains installed on the base. On the white disc with strange symbols in the middle of the house, three small needles can rotate by themselves.
Ah Yuqi and others had never seen the music box. For a moment, everyone''s eyes were attracted by this small box without exception. However, before people could see a name, a small door in the small house in front of them suddenly opened automatically. A cuckoo flew out of it, and then he shouted three times at the people "goo, goo, goo".
This emergency really surprised ah Yuqi and others at the scene. It looked like the Aztec people in South America heard the sound of guns for the first time.
The two Kalmyk cavalry escorting naum Vasiliev also showed fear, and they jumped a long way one by one.
Seeing the reaction of Ayuki and others, naum Vasiliev immediately felt a slight sense of disdain.
Just when naum Vasiliev was elated, a happy thing happened.
However, the Lama Gelu sitting next to ah Yuqi quickly stood up, then raised his Buddha battle, rushed forward, smashed the still chirping eight tone box, and recited the Buddhist scriptures to ward off evil spirits. Naum Vasiliev reacted and was about to scold. However, he saw the Lama pointing at naum Vasiliev with a Buddhist battle and yelling, "messenger sent by the devil, do you want to capture the soul of Taiji!"
When I said this to Gru, almost everyone''s face showed the intention of killing. I think of the way I was attracted by the house just now. I really feel like my soul is out of my body. Looking at the broken house, it feels like it can seal people''s soul into the house.
Ah Yuqi is the Khan of the future Kalmyk khanate, and is deeply loved by the people. This Huang maozi wants to assassinate ah Yuqi. How can he not make public anger.
The most angry person at the scene was Gardan Zeling. But he did not hesitate to order, "come on! Pull this devil out and burn him!"
"Wronged!"
Naum Vasiliev lost his face in an instant. He pushed hard on the ground with his two fat legs to prevent the karmec cavalry from dragging him away.
"Wait!"
Just as naum Vasiliev was about to be dragged down and executed, ayuqi stopped gardanzeling''s move. He picked up the broken pieces of the chime on the ground and carefully observed the parts inside. He even picked up the gears staggered together.
After a while, ah Yuqi seemed to understand something. He burst out laughing.
"I see. I see."
Ah Yuqi raised the gears. He said to kardanzeling and Gru, "look, this is the secret of the bird''s sound just now. These gears drive the device inside and make a sound. Am I right? Naum Vasiliev''s hand."
"Taiji is wise!" naum Vasiliev said with a smile.
Then, despite the shocked eyes of others, ayuqi sat naum Vasiliev down. He said to naum Vasiliev, "envoy of the Czar, thank you for your gift. It''s really a good thing. My people were reckless and broke it. But if you still have it, I''d like to exchange it for you with a horse. Or other things like this, such as a musket."
Naum Vasiliev almost got away at the gate of death. He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Taiji, although such objects are also rare treasures in our czar Russia, if you like our Czar, your majesty will certainly not be stingy. Because your majesty wants Kalmyk Khanate to become a friend of Czar Russia. You know, friends should be mutual..."
Naum Vasiliev said, comparing himself and Ayuki by hand.
What a clever man ah Yuqi is. He immediately understood that naum Vasiliev, or the czar of Russia, had his own needs.
Sure enough, there is nothing to be courteous, either rape or theft.
But ah Yuqi turned off the topic and still stubbornly asked, "what about the musket?"
Naum Vasiliev froze. He understood that ah Yuqi didn''t let himself go because he liked to ring the bell, but took a fancy to the musket of Czar Russia.
Although the muskets of Czar Russia were stupid and heavy, and were notoriously backward in Europe, even such weapons were difficult for nomads to obtain. Czarist Russia strictly prohibited firearms from flowing into the hands of nomads in order to prevent them from being able to resist themselves.
In the past, naum Vasiliev would not have bought ah Yuqi firearms even if he moved out of Jinshan and Yinshan. But now naum Vasiliev can''t think much of it in order to recover cherkesk with troops.
"Guns, of course," said naum Vasiliev.
"So what does your czar want?"
On hearing that naum Vasiliev was willing to sell himself a musket, ayuqi asked eagerly. Ah Yuqi witnessed the power of muskets in the conflict with Cossack and czar Russian troops. Even brave warriors are like three-year-old children in front of guns. Ah Yuqi hopes to get muskets to arm his guard and enhance his strength, but no businessman who comes to the Khanate to trade is willing to sell muskets even at a high price.
"Taiji, I, no, it''s our czar. He wants you to help the great czar Russia repel the invasion of the evil Communists," naum Vasiliev said.
"It''s to borrow soldiers." after hearing naum Vasiliev''s words, ayuqi hesitated.
On the other hand, the Gelu Lama loudly announced the Buddha''s name in a solemn voice.
Sending troops is not a trivial matter. Moreover, the Kalmyk Khanate has just taken root in a foreign country, surrounded by strong enemies, and sent troops for the interests of other countries. Even ah Yuqi, as the successor of the khanate, has to think carefully.
"The matter should be considered in the long run," said ah Yuqi.
Naum Vasiliev panicked when he saw that ah Yuqi hesitated. In the long run, how long is it. What I lack most now is time. If Stephan Racine takes root in cherkesk, he will be finished.
Naum Vasiliev''s heart was flustered. He bit his teeth and said to ayuqi, "as long as Taiji is willing to send troops to help us immediately, czar Russia is willing to give you 300 muskets!"
Three hundred muskets!
Hearing this figure, ah Yuqi and kardan Zeling stared in surprise, and when the Gelu Lama opened a Buddha bead, his strength was not as strong as before.
"How many are your enemies?" ah Yuqi asked.
"More than a thousand Tatars are mobs. It''s no big deal," naum Vasiliev said casually.
This obviously can''t convince ah Yuqi that Czarist Russia had to deal with more than a thousand mobs at such a high price.
"Leader naom Vasiliev," said ayyuqi positively, "we turhutes value friends most. If you czar Russia really regards me as a friend, you should tell the truth."
Listening to ah Yuqi''s tone, there was a faint threat, and that meant that as long as he didn''t tell the truth, he wouldn''t help himself. Naom Vasiliev had to tell the truth: "there are more than 3000 rebels composed of serfs."
Ah Yuqi and kardan Zeling looked at each other. They looked at Gelu Lama again. Gelu Lama just closed his eyes and announced the Buddha''s horn in a low voice.
Ah Yuqi thought for a moment. After weighing the pros and cons, he finally made up his mind.
Ayuqi said to naum Vasiliev, "I want 300 muskets now, and if you deceive us in the number of enemies, we can withdraw at any time."
Naum Vasiliev had a fierce struggle with Ayuki''s request. Finally, he said: "give 200 first, and then give you 100 when it''s done. I can only guarantee that the enemy is generally so strong, but some differences are inevitable."
"Deal!" ah Yuqi clapped his hands with naum Vasiliev.
Naum Vasiliev left contentedly. Ayuki promised him that in two days, he would lead 3000 kalmec cavalry to support naum Vasiliev.
Naum Vasiliev felt alive again at the thought of the three thousand cavalry. The scenery around him was so beautiful that he even walked briskly.
At ah Yuqi''s place, the Gelu Lama, who had not spoken just now, said to ah Yuqi, "Taiji, do you really want to help the Russian?"
"Yes, Gru. That''s 300 muskets! With these weapons, I can form a Taiji guard using muskets, and my position in the Khanate will be more stable." ah Yuqi said to the Gru Lama.
At this time, the Nadam conference was over, and the new horse hybridized by Ili horse and dun Hippo really won the victory. Ah Yuqi gave a dagger to the knight who drove the horse, and he got on the horse with the help of the slave.
"Taiji, you are the heir of the Khanate. No matter what decision you make, we will support you. However, whether the Russians or those * * *, they are the enemies of the Buddha. You should be careful not to be used by them." Gelu Lama warned ayuqi.
Hearing that Gru was afraid of being used, ah Yuqi laughed and said, "don''t worry, Gru. How can I be easily used by them."
Seeing that ah Yuqi was so confident, Gru stopped talking. At this time, kardan Zeling rode over.
Gardanzeling had taken off his robe and put on Kalmyk''s armor. Kalmyk people live in the western regions, which is the intersection of East Asian civilization and Central Asian civilization, so their armor also combines the characteristics of cotton armor in East Asia and lock armor popular in Central Asia.
For example, Gardan Zeling. Inside it is an open-ended lock armour, and outside it is a cotton armour with foam nails. He wore a high helmet with a small flag flying in the wind.
"Ah Yuqi, a hundred cavalry have been assembled." kardan Zeling said to ah Yuqi.
"OK."
Seeing that kardan Zeling had assembled the troops so quickly, ah Yuqi praised with satisfaction. Then, he said to kardan Zeling, "Zeling, you lead the 100 cavalry to cherkesk. One receives the 300 muskets; the other goes to see if the Cossack is lying to us. If you find anything unusual, come back immediately and remember to take the 200 muskets. After I go back and ask my father Khan, I will bring a large army to support you."
"Yes, Taiji!" Gardan Zeling hit his chest heavily with his right hand.
Gardanzeling left with a hundred cavalry. Ah Yuqi turned to the Gelu Lama and said, "Gelu, what do you think of my arrangement?"
Gelu Lama put his hands together: "there is no more comprehensive arrangement than this."
Although ah Yuqi was wise, he was young after all. After listening to Gru''s compliment, he laughed loudly.
After laughing, ah Yuqi whipped his horse''s hips.
"Go, warriors of turgoth. Let''s go home!"
Kalmyk''s followers, who were hunting with ah Yuqi, greeted him with cheers. They rode their horses and headed home with a full load of prey. In the near future, a Mongolian whirlwind will sweep through cherkesk and Yasu. Its strength is beyond the expectation of Cherchen, Stepan rasin and naum Vasiliev.
