Cabot is shrewd, capable, and well-trained, and the first step is to take stock of his own.

Very good, because of the importance of the city of Calcutta, the Southeastern Army attached great importance to it, and sent a regiment of 2,500 infantry and 2,500 marines, plus 2,000 men with guns, a total of 7,000 men! 、

In addition, he was able to get the support of the fleet of twelve battleships at the mouth of the Ganges, as well as the same number of cruisers.

At that time, the Ganges River was so large that the fleet could go up the Ganges River and drive straight into it, which was not a small threat to the local area.

Cabot was a major general, governor-general, and had the power to control the three armies.

After the bottom, Cabot must have saluted first and then soldiers, and sent Wang Yiming as an envoy to first find Samit, the lord of the Asan Princely State who had invaded the territory, to negotiate and ask them to hand over the land.

So, Wang Yiming learned the efficiency of the other party, and came back to report to Cabot vividly.

On the first day, the other party is to worship God, God is holy, and worldly things should not be held against them;

Well, follow the customs of the locals, the leader said to respect their customs, I bear with it!

On the second and third days, I still worshipped God, and I didn't see anyone.

They have so many gods that if they are serious, they don't have to work 365 days a year, and they will be busy just worshipping God.

On the fourth day, they didn't worship God, so the local prince, Summit, received them, and they made an appointment to meet at ten o'clock in the morning, but as a result, Wang Yiming arrived at Summit's mansion and waited until twelve o'clock!

After waiting for two hours, Summit came out to meet him.

Later, some acquaintances said that Master Summit was enough to give face to the Chinese, and other outsiders looking for him might have to wait until the afternoon, or tomorrow!

Tsk, I'm still flattered!

Wang Yiming saw Summit, a good old man Summit, with a round face chubby like a ball, wearing a full body of Chinese silk, all over his body was jewelry, radiant, he had an excellent temper, he said everything you told him!

Give him some gifts, and he will take them.

Wang Yiming lost his temper, but he was smiling, shining with golden light, and he was an Amitabha.

Seeing Wang Yiming's annoyed appearance, Summit kindly persuaded Wang Yiming not to worry, not to be angry, life is to wait.

Do you Chinese have an opinion? Okay, let's study and see.

Summit was very good-tempered and invited Wang Yiming to dinner, and Wang Yiming thanked him and ate pilaf with him.

But no matter how good you have a good relationship with him, it is useless, he sent Wang Yiming away, Wang Yiming waited for two days, and sent someone to ask Summit how the situation was?

Summit said it was still under investigation; Two more days later, he sent someone to ask, and Summit said he would wait two more days; After waiting for eight days, Wang Yiming came to inquire, and Summit said that the evidence was insufficient and he was still investigating!

How many days does that take?

Wait!

……

Dhaka, the capital of Bengal province of the Mughal Empire, has narrow streets, dilapidated old houses, and small shops selling goods on both sides of the street, which looks dilapidated and messy, which is what a farmers' market looks like.

It's also bustling, people coming and going, sacred cows are rampant, there are a lot of people, but they themselves don't know what they are doing.

Most of the people were in rags, the sacred cow and the people were very thin, their ribs were exposed, many people looked numb, and the cow also looked depressed.

Sacred cows are respected, but there is a serious shortage of forage and fodder, and people are so lazy that they are also malnourished, so I wonder if they will be satisfied with drinking the water of the Ganges?!

The whole street is overflowing with a lazy look, almost all of them are dirty people, cow, garbage, and sewage are the main theme here, and the air is filled with the smell of sweat and sourness!

Of course, we can't go all out of the three pots, but there are some bright spots, which are dignitaries and their families, brightly dressed, mostly wrapped in Chinese silk, carried by slaves, and swaggered through the market.

A majestic southeastern army appeared in the streets of Dhaka on tall horses, led by Cabot, who sought to negotiate with Aamir Khan, the incumbent Nawab (Viceroy, the supreme ruler of India, usually the most powerful prince or princely lord in the region).

The Southeast Army likes to use donkeys, but depending on the situation, horses should be used or horses, others use horses, we also have to use horses to fill decency, and later the soldiers found that it is better to use horses, stand taller, can reduce the smell of encountering people--- they don't take a bath, plus curry, you can smoke people alive!

There are still a large number of donkeys in the team, they are responsible for carrying supplies, including rum and drinking water, this team, according to the ship's supply method, the warship sails, even if you seal the water well, after a week of bad taste, so often use rum to seep water to replenish water.

Everyone smells of alcohol, and this is on land!

This was instructed by Cabot, and Adjutant Wang Yiming complimented: "Sir, thanks to your method, otherwise we wouldn't know what would have happened!" ”

That's right, the local drinking water is really terrible, the well water is covered with moss, and there is river water mixed with I don't know what it is, and those three pots don't frown, they don't boil, and they just do it!

The chief instructed not to drink water and eat indiscriminately, otherwise it would be a big trouble to eat a bad stomach, but the three pots live like this, and drinking this water is estimated to be strong in this way all year round.

The Chinese don't have the ability to do this, so they have to be careful.

"I've been here before!" Cabot reluctantly said: "We didn't understand before, but as a result, we had a hundred red hairs, and fifty of us died of illness, and I was also sick, vomiting and diarrhea for five days, if I wasn't young, I would have died sooner!" ”

"Drinking water, eating food, bugs, unexpected ways to die, everything!" Cabot waved his hand and admonished Wang Yiming: "We must pay attention, and the horses and donkeys we bring should also pay attention to providing them with good food and water, otherwise we will walk back!" ”

Wang Yiming's heart sank, and he said: "Yesterday, two donkeys died of illness after drinking local water!" ”

These donkeys were brought by the southeast, hard-working and easy to raise, and they came all the way west with the Chinese, and they couldn't withstand the local water after drinking the local water...... The Chinese have been paying attention, but they can't let the horses and donkeys also come to the rum to add water, right?!

"Buy local donkeys to work and adapt to the local living conditions!" Cabot said.

He came this time because Wang Yiming's negotiations with Samit, the princely lord of Calcutta, finally came to a conclusion, and Summit came with a "push" word, saying that the British had signed a contract with the Nawab of Bengal, and that if the Chinese wanted to inherit the rights of the British, they had to be confirmed by the current Nawab.

After Cabot heard the news, he thought that it was a long way to Dhaka, and it was not easy to go back and forth, and with the efficiency of the three pots, he didn't know that the Year of the Monkey was the only way to go, so he personally went out and went to Dhaka to negotiate with Aamir Khan.

Of course, it's best if you can sign a contract, if you can't sign a contract, hehe, Cabot is not a vegetarian three-pot!
