Chapter five hundred and seventy eight big surprise
Bianjing, State Guesthouse.
Orwitus soaked his whole body into the pool, resting his head on the wooden water pillow, and his face was full of comfort and comfort.
The success of Da Song and his party exceeded his imagination.
The Song people not only entered the river, entered the Eastern Karakhanate, but also entered the Western Karakhanate. The conflicts between them and the Seljuks were simply inseparable.
Naturally, he was willing to make friends with the Byzantine Empire.
Even if the two sides are thousands of miles apart and it is very inconvenient to communicate with each other, the benefits of joining forces to deal with the world of heaven are self-evident.
Therefore, Orwitus and his group were treated very highly by the Song Dynasty court in Bianjing.
Moreover, not only did they eat well and live well, but the Song Dynasty also rewarded them.
In addition to the letter of state and gifts of the Song Empire, Owetus and his group received a reward according to their status, and even the servants with the lowest status received ten pieces of silk!
Orwetus even got a piece of Jun porcelain, which was specially rewarded by the emperor of the Song Empire. It was simply ecstatic and could not let go of it.
A piece of Jun porcelain treasure is placed in the current country of porcelain, and it is also extremely precious.
Not to mention that the treasure came from the palace!
After the news spread, there were people coming here to visit him, and everything was because of that treasure. Those people offered higher prices one by one, and they were called Orwitus and were happier day by day.
For a while, Orwitus received such visitors every day. Although he would not cash out the treasure, it would become a treasure inherited by their family after it was brought back to Byzantium.
But he came to meet those people one by one, not feeling bored at all, nor did he express his feelings to the outside world.
All this is for the glory in my heart. Looking at the proud Chinese smiling face in front of him, how could that kind of excitement be bought by money?
Of course, it must be noted that money is very attractive.
When Orwitus heard the offer higher than the other, he felt as sweet as eating honey.
He did not hide anything from others about this matter at all. When everyone returns to Byzantium, these deeds will definitely be spread, and everything today will become layers of more dazzling halos surrounding the treasure.
It’s so comfortable. During the Song Dynasty, everyone of Orwitus lived so beautifully.
"Master, Master..." Theodosius rushed in with a scream.
But Orwitus did not react at all.
Because he had blocked his ears with earplugs, this would prevent water from pouring into his ears.
It was not until Theodosie appeared before Orwitus that he stood up straight. "What happened to make you so anxious, my dear Theodosie?"
The latter looked out of breath and obviously ran over in a hurry. Although Theodosio was panting, there was a smile on his face, which obviously would not be a bad thing.
"Master, the great army of the Song Empire's Western Expedition has returned to the good news."
It was only after Aoweth and the others arrived in the East that the Song people's army had entered the Western Karakhtar Khanate and defeated tens of thousands of reinforcements led by the Seljuks. Then it was obvious that if the Song Empire's western expedition army wanted to completely consolidate the Western Karakhtar Khanate and completely take that land, they would face the test of the real Tianfang coalition led by the Seljuks.
"The Song people won?"
"Yes, the Song people won. The Marshal Yue of the Western Expedition Army defeated more than ten foreign Tianfang coalition forces led by Sanjar with a force of 50,000. The troops once broke into the Huatshuzimo!"
Theodosio's face was full of excitement, which was really a big surprise for the Byzantines!
The Seljuk Empire, which had already been unstable, is probably the foundation of the Seljuk Empire, and Sanjar's authority will also be greatly reduced.
This is no less than solving a huge threat for the Byzantines.
Although the Crusaders were very active on the east coast of the Mediterranean, they established principalities and kingdoms, which seemed to have taken great advantage.
But the heavenly forces they faced were just vassals of the Seljuk Empire.
If Sanjar really led the army to attack the Crusaders, the latter's strength would not be able to stop it at all. At that time, the Byzantines could only go to save the ground in person.
Of course, Western Europe will inevitably organize a second wave of eastern expedition forces, but far-reaching water cannot relieve intimate thirst.
In order to prevent the situation in the Crusaders from being completely corrupted, Byzantium must end.
This is a great problem for Byzantine. It not only consumes its own vitality, but also greatly enhances the power of the Catholic Church on its side. This is definitely something that the Byzantine people do not want to see.
Although both Catholic Church and Orthodox Church are from Nescent, in the truth that heresy is more hateful than pagans, even though the great boss of Catholic Church claims to help his brothers in the East, Byzantine and Western Europe can't pee in the same pot.
The reason why the Komuning Dynasty promoted the Crusade was because the new Komuning Dynasty was weak. It not only had to bear the threat of the Tianfang World on the Eastern Front, but was also attacked by the Pecheneg people in the north.
The latter was originally a nomadic people on the map of the river and was one of the tribes under the Turkic Khanate. However, with the collapse of the Western Turkic Khanate, they were first defeated by the Geluo people and had no choice but to move westward to the Don and Kuban Rivers. Then, because of the Geluo people and the Kimak people, they were forced to move to the Southern Russian grasslands and the Crimean Peninsula, and even entered the Danube River basin. Then the Pecheneg people came to work in time. They first defeated the Magyars, which forced the latter to move westward to the Pannonian Plain, thus establishing Hungary.
Then in the next century, the Pechenegs who moved west several times completely turned into phoenixes. Whether it was the Duchy of Ross in the northwest, the Byzantine Empire in the south, or the Bulgaria around them, they all became the targets of the Pechenegs' attacks.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Komning Dynasty, the Pechenegs took advantage of the situation and defeated John II's father Alexei I in the lower Danube area, and invaded Byzantines from the northwest of the Black Sea. The situation of the Komning Dynasty was once in danger.
The Pechenegs fought to the city of Constantinople. On the way to march, they plundered the northern part of the Balkans along the way, posing a serious threat to the Komuning dynasty.
Why did Alexei I lead the Crusader? Responding to huge external threats is the most fundamental reason.
If it weren't for the emergence of the Crusaders, would the Komuning Dynasty have allowed to abandon the threat from the Eastern Front and go all out to deal with the Pecheneg people in the north? Can they concentrate on resting and recuperate for decades?
