Chapter 1535 Remind the Persians
Ottoman Turkey was actually very annoyed about the "not listening to hello" of the Crimean Khanate. The cold and warlike Sultan Selim I almost wanted to send troops to teach this disobedient former younger brother. However, Turkey is currently planning to annex the vast and rich Persia, so it is not time to pay attention to the "not listening to hello" of the Crimean Khanate.
Moreover, the Crimean Khanate is very treacherous, and people do not completely ignore the greetings, but sometimes they send troops to cooperate, which makes Türkiye unable to find an excuse to attack.
Besides, Turkey is not Turkey during the reign of Emperor Suleiman. It does not have the ability to fight on multiple lines, nor the ability to beat Europe. The key point is that Türkiye has not yet been able to annex the rich Egypt!
After annexing Egypt with developed agriculture and winning the relatively rich Syrian region in the Middle East (don't laugh, ancient Syria was really a prosperous region in the Middle East), the Ottoman Empire became a giant. Moreover, after the Mamluk dynasty of Egypt was eliminated, the Turkish Sultan also won the title of Caliph (originally the Caliph was a puppet of the Mamluk dynasty), and eventually became a giant in the Middle East.
Now, Selim I, the father of Suleiman, has not defeated Persia, nor has he destroyed the Mamluk dynasty in Egypt. In this case, Turkey will naturally not rashly send troops to Crimea. After all, Crimea is not a soft persimmon, and now he can beat the Grand Duchy of Moscow to his father...
For this reason, Selim I hated Marin, the "culprit" in trade with the Crimean Khanate, thinking that it was Marin's order that made Turkey lose an excellent brother. But to be honest, even Selim I was a little jealous of orders for tens of thousands of cows every year. After all, Turkey is also a country dominated by animal husbandry, but there are too many animals to be sold.
As for Marin, even if he knew that Selim I hated him, he would not care. After all, no matter how powerful Turkey is, it would not be able to fight to the northern part of Germany. As for Maomei's trade being blocked by Turkey? Marin never used the name of the North Sea to transport those Maomei. He was in the name of other countries. After all, human trafficking is not allowed by the Holy See. Slave ships usually attack the flags of Venice or Geneva to clear themselves. Turkey has not yet turned against Venice and Geneva at this time, so naturally it will not intercept the ships flying the flags of these two countries.
Moreover, what Selim I didn't know was that Marin was secretly imitating Turkey's Rumi gun and planned to sell it to Turkey's rival, the Mamluk Dynasty of Egypt. If he knew this, Selim I would probably vomit blood...
In fact, Marin is now considering making bad for Turkey. He remembers that it seems that Selim I defeated Persia in 1514 and seized a large tract of land on the eastern border of later generations. It was about August, and the area occupied was probably the area where the Kurds lived in the eastern part of Turkey in later generations. That battle seemed to be called the "Battle of Chardiran"...
"Do I want to help the Persian Safavi Empire?" Marin thought for a while...
Originally, Marin planned to fund a large number of weapons and armor in the Persian Safavi Empire. However, time seemed to be insufficient. Because if you use a ship to transport weapons and armor to Persia, it would take too long to bypass the Cape of Good Hope. But now it is the end of March, but the war broke out in August, and he must have no time to support Persia.
However, it would be better to do nothing. After all, Turkish Sultan Selim I established strong self-confidence by defeating the Persian Safavi Empire. Then, two years later, the "Dabic Grassland Battle" defeated the main force of the Egyptian Mamluk dynasty in one fell swoop and gave Türkiye the opportunity to annex Egypt.
Marin remembers that in the "Cardiran Battle", the Turks defeated the most elite cavalry unit of the Persian Safavi Empire with their powerful artillery, causing all the elite troops of the Persian Safavi Empire to be lost, and even lost the capital Tabriz for a while. If Turkey hadn't been strong enough at this time, and was worried that the rear was attacked by the Egyptian Mamluk Dynasty, the Persian Safavi Empire might have been done.
In this battle, Ismayi I, the founder of the Persian Safavi Empire, was completely stunned by the Ottoman artillery and lost many of his confidants. He was also unable to recover because of this.
Before this, Ismay I was the legendary founding monarch of the Persian Safavi Empire. He had all his father and brothers died in battle since his young age, and he was also hunted down by the Aries Dynasty, which ruled Persia at that time. He relied solely on the unsuccessful rebellion society left by his father and brothers, the Safi Cult. Since 1499, with the support of a group of old ministers left by his father and brothers, he launched a great rebellion with the purpose of overthrowing the Aries Dynasty based on 1,500 soldiers. That year, he was only 12 years old...
What's even more amazing is that it took him only three years to defeat the seemingly powerful Aries Dynasty and found the Persian Safavi Empire. That year, he was only 15 years old...
To be honest, if it weren't for his Persian army being stunned by the Turkish artillery and suffered a crushing defeat, Marin would have doubted whether he was a time traveler. Because the deeds of this guy "starting rebellion at the age of 12 and founding the Safavi Dynasty at the age of 15" were simply too bizarre. From ancient times to the present, there has not been such a young founder of the dynasty.
In that "Cardiran Battle", the Persian Safavi Empire lost a large number of generals. Ismayi I, who was like a cheat, never recovered from then on and died of depression at the age of 36.
Marin felt that such a legendary figure should not be depressed. After all, if this guy was still stunned by Turkish artillery as he had in history, the pressure on the east side of Turkey would be gone.
Therefore, in order to make things difficult for the future Emperor Suleiman, Marin felt that he had the obligation to remind Ismayi I and let him be careful of Turkish artillery.
So, although it may not be too late to go by sea, Marin planned to send people to Persia by land as a merchant. Then, he reminded Ismay I to be careful of Turkish artillery and brought an early warning of an upcoming Turkish invasion in August.
Some Beihai Kingdom sent someone to remind Isma Yi I in advance. Marin felt that Isma Yi I should not have been defeated by the Turks as badly as in history...
However, this is not accurate. Ismay succeeded in his youth and easily lost himself and believed in his own abilities. In history, he was not prepared because he was too contemptuous of his opponents and was beaten up by the Turkish artillery. Not only did he lose many generals, but he even lost his confidence.
...
Thinking of this, Marin decisively ordered to send spies to pass the Crimean Khanate friendly with the North Sea Kingdom. Then, in the name of doing business, he took the Caucasus route to Tabriz, the capital of Persian, to inform Ismay I of the news of Türkiye's upcoming invasion and the power of artillery...
