The amount of supplies that Pei Min said made Justinian completely stunned and shocked.

Five thousand war horses, five thousand fighting camels!

It’s okay to say that war horses are not short of horses, but fighting camels is not ordinary.

There are many places in the West that are deserted, and camels are the best means of transportation, which is very common.

Fighting camels are completely different from ordinary camels. Fighting camels are dromedary camels that are hybridized for combat.

Drogmian camels are much taller and more fierce than Bactrian camels.

There is a saying that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. You can imagine that a dromedary camel is more than a little bigger than a war horse.

Like humans, animals have a fear of creatures taller than themselves. In addition, dromedary camels will have a stench that is not tolerated by military and horses. Therefore, ordinary cavalry have no advantage when facing camel cavalry.

Facing the Arab camel cavalry, Byzantium suffered a lot of great losses.

Five thousand fighting camels are enough to form a cavalry team.

There are also one thousand kilograms of Damacus steel!

The excellence of Damascus knife is well known. The key to Damascus knife is Damascus steel, also known as Uz steel, which is the top steel for making swords.

Adding a little bit to an ordinary sword can make it more than twice as sharp as a thousand kilograms of Damacus steel can forge tens of thousands of sharp weapons...

There are also spice gold coins and books from Constantinople...

Arabs are willing to spend such a capital?

Justinian didn't believe it.

Pei Min smiled and said, "I don't believe it yet? To be honest, I don't believe it either. But the Lion King is so generous that he gave me a bargaining chip that cannot be refused. He said that as long as he conquered Constantinople, what is this little material?"

Justinian's expression condensed, it was indeed the case.

Compared with the huge Byzantine, what are these materials?

Pei Min looked at Justinian with a smile. He was not worried that Byzantium would not take the bait, nor was he afraid that he would not believe it.

Similarly, this is a conspiracy.

Even if Justinian licked his face and asked Mosremasa if this was true.

And Mosremasa also told him truthfully that everything was Pei Min's plan, so don't cheat him.

Will Justinian have a letter?

Now that things have come to this point, Justinian cannot be disbelief for the sake of Byzantine's safety.

Even Justinian cannot refuse, seeking things from the Tang Dynasty, without taking off any skin, and wanting to fall asleep peacefully?

After hesitating for a while, Justinian also understood that the current situation had been a good move, and he could not refuse it. He was embarrassed for a while: "I, Byzantine, would like to release the same materials and rebuild them with the Tang Dynasty. It was just that the fighting camels were made of Arabian products, and I would use 7,000 troops to replace them."

He said uncomfortable, and the translator was trembling when he translated this passage.

Byzantines are typical weak military and rich countries. They occupy the Mediterranean coast of southern Spain and North Africa, and the Bosphorus Strait, a strategic waterway connecting the Black Sea to the Aegean Sea. The maritime commercial trade is extremely developed.

Even though a large area of ​​land was lost, the core was still there. It was a bit like the later Song Dynasty, where a large area of ​​land was lost and a part of the corner, but the country was not poor at all, but it was particularly rich.

But he was rich and innocently blackmailed so many state-owned materials, and the translator almost cried out in distress.

Pei Min narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Governor, what I said about this matter is not the end. You have to ask Your Majesty. But I will bring your sincerity to Your Majesty. I believe that he will also be happy to see you."

Justinian looked at the shameless Pei Min and wanted to get rid of him.

If he has paid so much, if he can't even meet Li Longji, how can he live?

"By the way!" Pei Min suddenly remembered something and said, "I am very interested in your Roman culture. I have no chance to ask for your Byzantine books from Arabia. I hope we can send some scholars to exchange culture with you! Of course, you can also send envoys to my Tang Dynasty to study."

Compared with some supplies, this is Pei Min's main purpose.

Chemistry and physics are the knowledge that changes the world.

Only by using chemistry and physics as the basis can we invent and create advanced products that transcend the era.

Do you have no basic principles and knowledge, and you still hope to develop high technology?

Coincidentally!

Whether in the West or the East, chemistry and physics originate from the theory of gods and ghosts.

Western chemistry and physics originate from theology, that is, alchemy.

This is also the reason why many Western scientists study theology in their later years.

And the chemistry and physics of the East originate from alchemy and immortality...

If you ask for Greek fire directly from Byzantium, Byzantium will definitely not give it to it. Even if you want to give it, it will be subject to the condition of thunder.

Compared with the Sky Thunder, Greek fire is obviously lower than that.

However, as Byzantium, with the deepest cultural heritage in the West, their country does have something to learn.

The reason why the Tang Dynasty had a brilliant and brilliant culture was that it had the mind of being a sea of ​​all rivers and was willing to absorb the strengths of other countries to make up for itself.

As for Byzantine's study in the Tang Dynasty, it was also a way of cultural exchange.

The Tang Dynasty never lacked those who seek knowledge, and did not care about one more Byzantine.

Seeing that the relationship was equal, Justinian agreed immediately, but in his heart he thought that it was OK to let the Tang Dynasty learn, but the Greek hot formula must be hidden well and the Tang Dynasty should not be allowed to learn it.

Pei Min was secretly proud of himself, he knew that Justinian thought their target was Greek fire.

But I don’t know that Xiang Zhuang’s sword dance is in Pei Gong!

Although Greek fire is good, it is obviously a bit outdated in front of jade beads and black gunpowder.

What he really liked was Greece's navigation technology, because of the geographical advantage, the Byzantine navies were particularly developed, and their maritime trade and maritime career were unparalleled at that time.

This is also the reason why the West entered the Age of Discovery earlier than the East.

The Tang Dynasty currently focuses on land development and has not yet developed into navigation.

Navigation was unsatisfactory in this regard. He was able to learn Byzantine navigation technology. The navigation industry of the Tang Dynasty has been advanced for at least ten years, or even twenty years.

Moreover, to confront Byzantine, developing a navy is necessary.

If you really want to beat the Arabs in the future, when you step on the Damachetes and your troops are facing the holy city of Jerusalem, how can you not defeat Byzantium?

After seeing Justinian off, Pei Min also wrote the situation in a letter and sent it to the palace.

According to the rules, foreign ministers must go through the Secretariat to contact the emperor. However, Li Longji had long given Pei Min the power to report secretly, and his letters could be sent directly to Li Longji for reading through Gao Lishi.

After doing all this, Pei Min stretched out a thought in his mind and wanted to have a good sleep.

After being tired for a day, I fell asleep immediately as soon as my head leaned against the pillow.

I don’t know how long I slept, but Pei Min was woken up.

This sleep makes people wake up, it's really uncomfortable, and my mind is confused, and I can't tell the difference between the east, south, west and north.

"What's wrong?" He shook his head suddenly and forced himself to wake up.

Seeing that it was Jiao Chen who woke him up, her eyes were red and a little sad, which made him feel a little more awake.

"Taigong, he can't hold on!"

Pei Min was shocked in an instant, like a basin of cold water pouring on the top, and he suddenly woke up.
Chapter completed!
