Minister of State Ablabek said in a deep voice: "It is very obvious that the Johoreans are playing tricks on the Chinese, so that all the trading ships from the Chinese ports dock at their ports to replenish their supplies, so as to collect taxes!" ”

"Johoreans are getting impatient!" General McGiddy said angrily.

Another general, Fahal, shouted: "They must be taught!" ”

Got almost all the civil and military responses from the full hall, to give Johor a painful lesson, repeat the tragedy of the last century to make Johorean people sober up, who is in charge of the Strait of Malacca!

In 1564, Sultan Ala-uddin II of Johor was captured by Aceh and eventually died in Aceh.

The Acehnese are tough and belligerent, and they want to restore their former glory!

In 1607, the Sultanate of Aceh rose to become the most powerful and wealthy country in the Malay Archipelago. Under the previous Sudan, Iskandar Muda, the sultanate extended its control to Sumatra and much of the Malay Peninsula. He conquered Pahang, a tin mining region in the Malay Peninsula, and exiled the Sultan of Pahang to Aceh.

However, his invincible fleet collapsed in 1629 in a campaign against the Portuguese in Malacca, when a Portuguese alliance with Johor managed to destroy all his ships and kill 19,000 soldiers, according to Portuguese historical records.

However, Aceh's military power was not destroyed as in the same year Aceh conquered Kedah and moved many of its people to Aceh.

The current Sudan Iskandar Rattani is the prince of Pahang, and later became the heir of Iskandar Muda, he is very young, just over 30 years old, only three years on the throne, and has the identity of an outsider, he is the prince of the kingdom of Pahang Sudan in the Malay Peninsula, and was adopted as an adopted son by the previous Sudan, and became the Aceh Sudan, and his prestige is inevitably insufficient.

Now that he encounters such a thing, it is difficult for him to suppress the turbulent situation.

Acehnese people are very angry, in the past few years, with the further development of the economy of the southeast province, the number of westbound ships has increased, so that everyone's wallet has gradually become richer, but unfortunately the good times are not long, but this year, the income has plummeted, and everyone feels that life is not good.

Then, if he wants to rob the money of the labor, the labor-management wants his life!

"We're going to beat the people of Johor!" McDee exclaimed.

"Yes!" Everyone nodded in unison.

"We'll beat them!" Trying to control the situation, Iskandar Rattani asked the group: "There is no problem with dealing with Johor, the problem lies with the Chinese, and if there is a war, what will happen to the Chinese?" ”

Su Dan is also not a vegetarian and has some understanding of the surrounding situation.

Everyone was silent for a while, and Megiddy was hot-tempered, and immediately said: "If the Chinese help the Johoreans, we will fight them together!" ”

"That's right!" His words were echoed by several generals, whose eyes flashed with greed, knowing that in recent years the Chinese had robbed the Dutch of their territory, miraculously risen to prominence, and were so rich that even the working boatmen wore silk in the summer, if they could sack the Chinese ports......

Minister Hussein said in a deep voice: "If the Chinese come, even fight with them, in the past few years, the Chinese have wiped out a lot of our Sudan Kingdom, it is intolerable!" ”

So there was a chaotic rebuke of Chinese voices in the hall, and only one voice said: "It's not a problem to fight Johor, but you must be cautious when you fight the Chinese!" ”

As soon as everyone saw that the speaker was the minister Kerim, everyone immediately laughed at him and said, "Are you cowardly? Are you scared? I'm actually afraid of those Chinese. ”

"Solving one Johor is not a problem, but dealing with the Chinese is a problem, and we must be cautious. Don't forget that even the Dutch were defeated, and once the war started, the Chinese would definitely go to war! ”

Hussein sarcastically said: "As the minister of Aceh, you really know the hearts of the Chinese. ”

Krimu wisely said, "I would rather live with them than fight them." ”

"Coward!" Hussein's contemptuous words provoked everyone to rebuke the Crime.

In front of everyone's eyes, Crimea still insisted: "We can't go to war easily...... he groaned, and finally said the words: "...... You may not be able to win! ”

Immediately, a voice rang out: "Blasphemy!" "---- dare to say that the Aceh Holy Army can't win the enemy!

It was McGiddy again, and he said without shame: "Under the guidance of our God, none of us are afraid!" We are invincible, invincible! ”

"Yes!" There was a chorus of agreement in the hall.

The palaces of the kings of Aceh were all built of stone, and they had the money and manpower to imitate the palace system of Ottoman Turkey in the distance, which was beautiful.

Hussein asked, "Could it be that Lord Krim does not agree?" ”

Hearing him say this, Krimu was angry in his heart, he was in charge of trade, he knew the situation of the Chinese best, he collected information about the Chinese, and knew that the Chinese continued to build Europa-style warships, occupying more and more places, the Chinese were an expansive race, their power was strong, and it was very dangerous!

Now I want to fight both Johor and the Chinese, but I am afraid that the old things will happen again in 1564!

Even if he offended people, he said it, but unfortunately the truth is always in the hands of a few, Hussein put a big hat on him, he stared at Hussein tightly, his anger was like a sword, and he thought to himself: "In case of defeat, you will be the sinner of Aceh through the ages!" ”

"Thou shalt not fight, God's will!" McGiddy raised his fists.

"God's will!" Everyone shouted in unison.

……

Seeing the excited faces in the hall, Crimea's face was gloomy, and he had a premonition that if he was defeated, Aceh would fall apart.

The Minister of State, Ablabek, sat in his position and acted relatively steadily, and he suggested to Sultan: "It is imperative to send troops to punish Johor!" ”

"However, we can send envoys to negotiate with the Chinese and avoid war as much as possible." He said.

Seeing that everyone wanted to spray him, he hurriedly said: "Try not to erect enemies on both sides, the enemy will deal with them one by one, and you will be more sure." ”

It does make sense, Hussein snorted and proposed to Su Dan: "Since Crimea knows the Chinese so well, it is best to send him!" ”

Sudan Iskandar Rattani tilted his head towards Crimea and asked him, "What do you mean, Crimea?" ”

Knowing that Hussein had bad intentions, Kerim replied angrily: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go." ”

Under Ablabek's mediation, the Crimean was authorized: "Ships that supply to the port of Aceh will be charged a transit tax of 5 percent, which is a little lower than the 6 percent of Johor." ”

Moreover, the people of Acehne were also familiar with trade, and decided that if foreign ships arrived in the name of a company, a company would be charged a transit tax of 4.5 percent a year to ensure that more than 10 ships would call at the ports of Aceh, which would be more favorable, and at the same time, the Acehnese would show their sincerity by providing better services, such as speeding up customs clearance, cracking down on corruption, and speeding up supplies.

Here the Crimean is preparing to send an envoy to the southeastern province, and the Acehnese are sharpening their swords and pointing their swords at Johor.

Dispatch troops!
