Chapter 515
"It's just that our alliance cannot have only our two families.
That would be too weak and insufficient to compete with Great Qin!"
It seems Muhammad has not been blinded by arrogance.
As expected of the Prophet of Dashi, he can still accurately recognize his own strength.
Fang Fang Xuanling was very happy that someone was willing to take the lead in forming this alliance.
He immediately suggested to Muhammad.
"The alliance is newly established and needs a few powerful core countries.
The most suitable ones to join our alliance and become core founding countries are Byzantium and Kievan Rus.
We can set up a banquet and invite the special envoys of their two countries to come and discuss this matter together."
Fang Fang Xuanling's suggestion spoke to Muhammad's heart.
Byzantium is a veteran major power of several hundred years.
Muhammad's Dashi is just a newly risen empire.
He also very much hopes to be recognized by Byzantium.
Now, inviting Byzantium to join as the leader of the alliance.
If Byzantium agrees, it is equivalent to recognizing the leadership status of Dashi.
This will satisfy Muhammad's vanity to a great extent.
"Good, let's do it!
Prime Minister Fang, you are truly a person of wisdom and talent!
I appoint you as the permanent elder of the alliance to devise strategies for our alliance!"
Regarding this position, Fang Fang Xuanling naturally accepted it with a smile.
He knew that the permanent elder seat also represented supreme power.
Having this status also makes it convenient to obtain some benefits for Great Tang.
"Thank you, Prophet!"
Fang Fang Xuanling did not expect this matter to proceed so smoothly.
Overall, it was still because Dashi was also under immense threat from Great Qin.
Plus this Prophet, who does not know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth, is delusional about challenging Great Qin head-on.
Anyway, this only has benefits for Great Tang.
Great Tang hopes that those who jump around happily will charge into battle in the front.
That night, Fang Fang Xuanling and Muhammad invited the people of Byzantium and Kievan Rus to the banquet.
These two countries were not very enthusiastic about joining this alliance.
But they also hoped to gain some understanding of Great Qin's strength through this alliance.
Because the prosperity of Great Qin had indeed alarmed those countries ten thousand miles away.
They were all worried about Great Qin's strength.
In short, the alliance was successfully established.
This good news made Old Li let out a long sigh of relief.
Great Ming Palace.
Shen Wansan returned.
He was reporting the situation in the Western Regions to Qin Mu, naturally including the development of the June Alliance.
"Your Majesty, there really is a gold mine in June Mountain!
There are gold particles in many of the small rivers flowing down from the mountains!
Tens of thousands of people are panning for gold there, and everyone is overjoyed!"
Qin Mu had already known about this situation.
It was precisely because he knew there was so much gold sand in June Mountain that he let them take this opportunity to pan for gold.
Great Qin is the Heavenly Dynasty!
"Has the news of panning for gold been spread out?
Sharing joy with others is better than enjoying it alone!"
Shen Wansan smiled knowingly.
"Your Majesty is wise!
As soon as Niu Gao went, he discovered that the June Mountain gold mine exceeded his imagination.
He didn't want to spread the news.
I gave him a good scolding!"
Qin Mu nodded.
Seeing treasure and wanting to hide it to swallow it alone is human nature.
But for Qin Mu, this gold mine belongs to Great Qin, and no one can take it away.
Moreover, he also wants to utilize the value of this gold mine to achieve more goals.
This kind of deep-level calculation is something a reckless man Wu Li Ke Niu Gao would not understand.
Fortunately, Shen Wansan understands.
Shen Wansan said.
"After the news spread, sure enough, over a hundred groups of horse bandits sent people to June Mountain to inquire about the situation, both openly and secretly.
After discovering that there really was a large gold mine here, some horse bandits became restless and wanted to come and rob it.
There were even several large bandit groups that united to negotiate with the June Alliance, wanting to carve up the gold mine.
As a result, they were all cleaned up by Niu Gao!"
Cleaning up horse bandits is just the first step of this grand plan.
Letting the June Alliance establish prestige among the bandit groups in the Western Regions also has other purposes.
Qin Mu suddenly asked a question.
"Did Yang Yang Zaixing go?"
"He arrived! When your subject returned from the Western Regions, Yang Yang Zaixing was setting up a ring under June Mountain, flying the banner of the number one expert in the Western Regions!"
Shen Wansan suddenly remembered another thing when he said this.
He hurriedly reported.
"Your Majesty, your subject returned in the company of someone this time."
Qin Mu noticed the word "company" used by Shen Wansan.
If it were Shen Wansan's subordinate, he would not have said it that way.
Naturally, it would not be a Great Qin official; otherwise, they should have come to meet the Emperor.
If it is neither, then it can only be a person from a foreign state.
"Is it the envoy from Dashi?"
"Your Majesty is as wise as a god!"
Shen Wansan was stunned; he hadn't said anything yet, and the Emperor had already guessed the person's general identity.
What kind of divine skill is this?
Too awesome!
"When your subject was in the Western Regions, the Dashi envoy suddenly came to find me quietly.
This person's identity is relatively special; he is the Dashi Prophet Muhammad.
So he hid his identity all the way, mixed into your subject's team, and came to Changancheng."
Prophet Muhammad?
Qin Mu also did not expect that it would be such a famous figure in history.
And his status is equivalent to the Emperor of Dashi.
In terms of the land area of Dashi, although it cannot be compared to Great Qin, it seems to be slightly larger than Great Tang.
Currently, it is a hegemonic existence along the Mediterranean coast!
Such a powerful monarch actually came to Great Qin in person.
What is his purpose?
