As expected, the young man did not break his promise. Early the next morning, he did not know what method the young man used to deliver the 600,000 kilograms of grain he had promised.
This is a total of three hundred tons of grain.
Of course, these grains are nothing to young people with tyrannical backgrounds.
However, these grains are very important to Siwex and the others.
With food, they can stabilize the hearts of the insurgents who follow them and let them continue to follow them.
Otherwise, with the food they have now, the entire team will completely collapse due to lack of food in a few days.
It can be said that these grains completely solved their urgent needs, which gave them a big sigh of relief.
"However, these foods only alleviate the current difficulties, and are far from being able to completely solve the crisis.
Three hundred tons of food seems like a lot, but for the rebel army with more than 600,000 people, it is still far from enough.
"If we save a little of these grains, we can only feed everyone for three or four days."
And, if you want to eat for three or four days, you need to save as much as possible.
So, what happens after all the food is eaten?
Well, this is a problem that must be faced seriously.
Of course, with such a good start, as long as the cooperation goes smoothly, this young man will continue to sell food to himself in the future, right?
In other words, as long as we maintain this friendship well, nothing will become a problem.
For Siwex, this young man from Portugal, whose true identity is from the American Song Empire, is nothing less than a lucky messenger for the rebel army.
Without the arrival of this young man, it would obviously be a headache for them to run out of food.
At the same time, the young man also made a good proposal.
Let them see a hope of living.
That means abandoning the northern Ottoman territories. Instead, he attacked and occupied the territory of the Principality of Hungary.
Today, the Principality of Hungary has few troops and is not enough to resist the attacks of the rebels. Once the plan goes smoothly, the rebels will have a large territory that can be used as a base to feed the army and collect taxes to purchase weapons and armor.
And these people, as the leaders of the rebel army, will be able to transform themselves into masters when the time comes.
At the same time, they can also temporarily avoid the Ottomans' front and buy themselves a very beneficial period of training.
¡°If this young man of Chinese origin hadn¡¯t arrived, they wouldn¡¯t have known such information.
After all, this is still a relatively backward era. Coupled with some reasons for the Ottomans, it is normal that the rebels did not receive effective and timely information and were unable to make favorable judgments.
But now it¡¯s different.
With this young man, Siwicks and the others already know very well the situation they have to face now and the favorable choices they can make.
Therefore, why don¡¯t they choose the more advantageous one.
On the third day, the rebel army began to march towards the border area as planned.
They no longer struggled with whether to capture the Ottomans' northern city.
Because they now have a better choice.
The Principality of Hungary is located in Eastern Europe, close to Poland, Norway and Russia.
The territory of its principality was not small in Europe of this era.
therefore. As long as they occupy the Principality of Hungary, the entire rebel army will have a very good territory.
At that time, we only need to give them a stable training period so that they can buy sufficient weapons, armor and food. Then they will be confident that they can deal with any troubles that follow.
"Perhaps because of the availability of food, the hesitation and fear can no longer be seen on the faces of the rebels at this time.
People who were marching supported each other, and their eyes showed determination. and a vision full of hope for the future.
I hope you people can bring about some changes and involve both Europeans and Ottomans in a larger war.
Looking at the endless marching queue. A young man of Chinese origin sitting on a war horse standing on a hill muttered to himself.
Yes, the main reason why he came here was to cause some trouble to the Ottomans.
Although the Ottomans can be regarded as the empire's 'allies', in fact, the empire does not treat them as one thing at all.
Portugal and France are now in a long-term war, and the church's power is not much better.
On the other hand, the Ottomans had a great advantage and achieved considerable results in the Mediterranean.
?This is something the empire does not want to see.
The empire needs balance, not even allies.
Therefore, the Serbian rebellion gave the empire an opportunity.
An opportunity to weaken the Ottoman Empire and make the conflict more intense.
What could be better than chaos?
Anyway, the empire is in America, far away from Europe and Asia, so no matter how chaotic it is here, it cannot have an impact on the empire.
¡°That¡¯s why the empire wants the chaos here to be as chaotic as possible, and it doesn¡¯t care whether you will blow out your brains or not.
At the same time, the war in Europe will give the Ottoman Empire an opportunity to take advantage. Once the Ottomans free up their hands in the Mediterranean, they will send troops from the land to destroy the church's power.
And the church forces that put all their energy into fighting against the Portuguese and French will obviously be exhausted by that time and unable to fight against the Ottomans.
Therefore, based on the strategic deductions of the three major concession intelligence departments in Marseille, Cairo, and Lisbon, everyone found that in the end the Ottomans were very likely to get the greatest benefits and territory.
And when such a situation occurs, it is very detrimental to the empire's strategy.
Therefore, in order to avoid such problems, causing some trouble for the Ottomans is a necessary method.
It was so hard to die. At this time, the Serbians rebelled.
This suddenly gave the empire a good opportunity.
And the empire is not worried about angering the Ottomans. Even if the Ottomans know that the empire is behind it, can they still come across the sea to cause trouble for the empire?
?Obviously, this is unrealistic.
Therefore, the empire is confident and sufficient.
According to the empire¡¯s plan. That is to support the Serbian rebels and capture the Principality of Hungary to gain a piece of territory.
By then, these rebels will be able to fight the Ottomans for a long time.
On the other hand, the energy of the Ottomans will be completely dragged down by these rebels and the naval battle for hegemony in the Mediterranean that has not yet decided the winner.
Although the rebel army will offend the church military group, the church military group has a bigger opponent at this time, and that is Portugal and France.
Therefore, for the time being, the church military group will not take action against the rebels immediately.
Therefore, the rebel army is in a short period of time. There is actually only one enemy they have to face, and that is the Ottomans.
By then, all the powerful countries in Asia and Europe in this era will be involved in long-term chaos and war. The empire can fish in troubled waters very well, right?
At the same time, the empire that is spying on the 'rich' region of the Middle East can also continue to take action.
Although the empire¡¯s army is not very large at this time, it cannot send troops to conquer the world at the same time. However, the empire can achieve its goals in another way.
money!
For the empire, it is nothing at all.
Can. For other countries in this era, money is a good thing that they have to face.
The empire only needs to spend a little money to get greater benefits, so why not do such a good thing?
The empire purchased large amounts of industrial silver through the virtual trader. It can be said that the empire is not short of money at all.
Although gold is a precious metal, the empire doesn't care much about it.
When it comes to making money quickly, it is oil and minerals.
¡°When these things are sold in the virtual world, it¡¯s simply a matter of how much is sold. And it will not be affected at all by price fluctuations in the virtual world.
It¡¯s not like selling antiques of gold and silver coins in this time and space, as well as a large amount of gold. If you sell more, there will be a lot of price fluctuations. Bring down the price of virtual worlds.
Because the virtual world is more than ten times the size of Zhao Hongyu¡¯s original time and space, iron ore and oil will not be affected at all.
Nowadays, the empire is developing rapidly and requires a large amount of industrial equipment.
But if these equipments are purchased from the virtual world, the amount required is not a small amount.
Just relying on the empire¡¯s existing??Resources are still somewhat insufficient to complete the planned projects.
Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the Middle East region.
As long as we can get to the Middle East and find oil fields.
So, as long as the oil well is drilled and the underground oil is put into iron barrels, a large amount of virtual world wealth can be exchanged, and there will be enough funds to purchase industrial equipment to build the empire's infrastructure.
The Ottomans were depleted of their strength and energy by the rebels and the struggle for hegemony in the Mediterranean, so they would definitely be overwhelmed by the empire's occupation of the Arab region.
It will be much easier for the empire to pursue this area.
It can be said that the plan formulated by the three major concession intelligence departments has begun to be implemented.
Although the headquarters in the Americas does not know about this yet, what is certain is that even if the headquarters knows about this plan, it will not stop it.
"Let's go! I hope these insurgents can succeed according to our plan."
The young man of Chinese descent pulled the reins in his hands, turned the horse in one direction, and then galloped down the hill.
The men he brought with him ran after him one by one.
¡°Everything that needs to be discussed is settled, and all the rest is left to the subordinates.
It is nothing more than providing food, weapons and armor to the rebels on time, and then getting the gold they looted from the rebels.
He no longer needs to take care of these things.
At this time, in Alexandria Port in Cairo, Egypt, a huge heavily armed warship flying the imperial flag was docked at the port berth.
Mabond, the governor of the Cairo Concession, led dozens of elite imperial soldiers to escort hundreds of people wearing Ottoman costumes to the port.
"Your Royal Highness, I wish you a safe journey. As for me, of course I hope that the empire can go further with your Ottomans."
The girl with a gauze scarf on her face and was called a princess nodded, and responded to Mabond in a sweet voice: "Thank you for your blessing, Mr. Governor." (To be continued)
