Chapter 320: Nothing Good

"What about pirates? Such a big sea, you can't even see the shadow of a pirate? What's going on with the ship that just escaped? Why don't you stop for a check-up? ”

Yang Shaofeng felt a little pain in his face - he swore to Zhu Zhanji that there was great fun on the sea, but it had been eight or nine days since he went to sea from Changle, Fujian, and he was about to occupy the city, and he didn't even touch a pirate!

Zheng He smiled and said: "It is impossible for pirates to appear here, if the champion wants to find trouble with pirates, he must pass through Ceylon."

As for the ship in front, it was just an official ship that collected customs duties from Champa, and even if they lent them a few guts, they did not dare to stand in front of the fleet. ”

Seeing that Yang Shaofeng and Zhu Zhanji were both looking at him curiously, Zheng He lightly spit out two words: "Ceylon." ”

As soon as they heard the word Ceylon, Yang Shaofeng and Zhu Zhanji understood.

In September of the seventh year of Yongle, Zheng He led the fleet to set sail from Liujiagang in Taicang for the third time, and Fei Xin, Ma Huan and others went together, which was also the first time Zheng He came to Ceylon, that is, Sri Lanka in later generations.

In fact, when he went to the West the first two times, Zheng He dealt with the king of Ceylon-

When Zheng He first went to the Western Ocean, he found that Ceylon dominated the sea, not only often harassing neighboring countries, but even repeatedly sending troops to hijack envoys who exchanged contacts between neighboring countries and other countries.

The lord of Ceylon, who had more than 50,000 soldiers, did not even pay attention to the Ming Dynasty at that time: in the third year of Yongle, a team of Chinese Buddhists came to Ceylon to offer incense at the altar of the Buddha's tooth, and was abused by Yalie Kunner.

Although he doesn't know who gave Yarekuna courage, Zheng He still hasn't seen it like Yarekunaer.

Until the third mission to the West.

On the way back, Yalie Kunaer changed her previous face, while pretending to explain to Zheng He that the last time was a complete misunderstanding, and on the other hand, she swore that she would surrender to the Ming Dynasty and give gifts to show her sincerity.

A few days later, Alekhunar once again solemnly invited Zheng He to the palace to continue the talks.

However, when Zheng He arrived at the palace, Arekhunar avoided it, and only sent his son Nayan to negotiate with Zheng He.

Nayan said that either Zheng He honestly handed over the gold and silver treasures on the ship, or the Chinese fleet would stay in Ceylon completely and never want to leave.

At the same time, Alekunel had already sent the entire force of the entire state of Ceylon, 50,000 soldiers, to loot the treasure ships, and also built a fortress between the harbor and the capital, intending to cut off Zheng He's connection with the fleet.

Theoretically speaking, the preparation of Ya Liekuna was very sufficient, and he was grasping with both hands, and both hands were quite hard.

If nothing else, not only the treasures carried by Zheng He's fleet will be in the pocket of Alekhoner's classmates, but even the entire Western fleet may fall into the hands of Alekhner, and Sri Lanka can also completely become a hegemon on the sea with these huge fleets.

But Mr. Miao Ting once said that the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny.

Yalie Kunaer thinks too highly of herself, and she underestimates Zheng He too much.

As a battle-hardened eunuch, Zheng He's classmate fully embodied his general's demeanor at this time, and after a second or two of confusion, Zheng He immediately responded.

The art of war is cloudy, encircling Wei to save Zhao, and smashing Huanglong.

Alekhunar thought that Zheng He would leave the palace and go straight to the port in order to return to the fleet as soon as possible, so he cut off the road in advance.

However, when Zheng He found out that almost all the soldiers of Ceylon had run to plunder the ship's belongings, and the capital was empty, Zheng He simply did not return to the fleet, but sent twenty elite soldiers who were good at walking mountain roads back to the fleet, and ordered the fleet to kill all the invading enemies.

By the way, Zheng He began to attack the capital of Ceylon with his 2,000 guards, intending to kill the classmate of Alie Kunaer.

It was only then that Alekhinar reacted - there were more than 50,000 troops in the entire Ceylon, and they were all sent to rob the treasure and rob the ship, and the entire palace was exposed to Zheng He's two thousand guards like a little lady who had stripped off her clothes.

Then Yalie Kunaer's family was served by Zheng He, and later sent to the capital of Daming to be exhibited.

As for the maritime power at that time, Ceylon, the hegemon of a generation in Southeast Asia...... It's still the same power, it's still the same overlord, but the king has changed from Alekunaer to Yabanai, the son of Arekunaer, and Yebanai regards Daming as a grandfather.

The Western Fleet is Dad.

Then, no one on the entire route will not open their eyes to Zheng He's trouble, no matter which country the Western fleet passes through, those countries will only honestly provide supplies, and their attitude is tens of thousands of times better than those officials of the Ming Dynasty, just like the current official ship of Zhancheng that avoids the fleet far away, no one asks Zheng He to mention any tariffs or tariffs.

As for this war, the Ming Dynasty officially used about a few lines of text to record it - Yalie Kunaer was "greedy", and Zheng He was completely to blame.

The Ceylon side records that Zheng He was greedy and wanted to take the Buddha's tooth in the Buddha Temple in the Ceylon Mountains as his own, thus launching this war.

……

"Ahead is the city."

Zheng He looked at the coastline that had appeared in sight with a gloomy expression, and said gloomily: "In the thirteenth year of Yongle, His Majesty sent troops to crusade against Chen Jikuo, and Zhancheng was once secretly a thief, and our family has always remembered it for him!" ”

"Tut, Ninan-gun, Xianglin-yi."

Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "What is the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties?" This is the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties! Thousands of years away from the Central Plains Dynasty, how difficult it is for a wanderer to be outside! ”

Zhu Zhanji glanced at Yang Shaofeng and said: "Don't fight the idea of occupying the city first, this time we went to sea to find the new continent, first replenish in the city, and then go back to the old port to find the great wilderness after the supply division." ”

Zheng He also nodded: "What His Highness said is that if the champion wants to have fun, there is a big fun to see in the old port now, there is no need to stare at Zhancheng now, just remember it for him first." ”

Yang Shaofeng wondered: "What kind of fun?" ”

Zheng He said: "Shi Jinqing is dead, and now it is the second sister Shi who is in charge, and Shi Jinqing's son Shi Jisun asked for canonization a few days ago. ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "What is there to solve this? Since ancient times, the father has passed away and the son has inherited, and it is just enough to canonize Shi Jisun as the consolation envoy of the old port, so why bother with it? ”

Zheng He frowned and said, "The difficulty is here." If it is normal to say, after Shi Jinqing's death, the post of the old Hong Kong consolation envoy should naturally be inherited by Shi Jisun, but Shi Jinqing left a will before he died, saying that he would die and not pass on his son. ”

Sighing helplessly, Zheng He continued: "You said that he would die, but he left such a will."

and Shi Jisun too, how good it is to be an idle nobleman honestly, but he still has to compete with his sister for the position of the old port ambassador, so that it is like this now. ”

Zhu Zhanji said suspiciously: "It's just a consolation envoy......"

"It's not just a consolation."

Zhu Gaosui took over the conversation: "The envoy of the old port canonized by the Ming Dynasty can claim to be the king of the Three Buddhas, and the talk here is big."

Even if this Sriwijaya king is worthless, he is also the lord of a country, and he is a soil emperor behind closed doors. ”

Zhu Zhanji understood, nodded and asked, "What about Second Sister Shi?" ”

Zhu Gaosui suddenly laughed: "I have a good idea, and your imperial father also agreed." ”

casually pointed at Yang Shaofeng, and Zhu Gaosui continued: "I asked your imperial grandfather for a canonization edict, and the name was empty.

When I went back and waited in the old port, let's see how the second sister Shi and Shi Jisun were, who was really interested in the Ming Dynasty, and whose name was filled in this edict. ”

Giving Zhu Gaosui a thumbs up, Zheng He praised: "Your Highness is clever." No matter how Second Sister Shi and Shi Jisun competed for the throne, it was still Da Ming who benefited in the end. ”

Yang Shaofeng sighed, but ignored Zhu Gaosui and Zheng He, who were touting each other.

Not a good thing.

In the thirtieth year of Hongwu, the Java Majapahit destroyed the old Srivijaya Dynasty, and the prince of Sriwijaya fled to the Malay Peninsula to establish the Manchurian State, and more than 1,000 Central Plains people living in Palembang at that time supported Liang Daoming, a native of Nanhai, Guangdong, as the king and established a new Sriwijaya Dynasty.

In the third year of Yongle, Liang Daoming and his courtier Zheng Boke returned to Daming to pay tribute, and then ......

Then he was recruited, ran back to his hometown Nanhai, and threw the entire Three Buddhas to his deputy Shi Jinqing.

Then, Zheng He returned from the land of West Kunlun at that time, and sent people to appease Chen Zuyi when he passed through the old port.

Chen Zuyi believed that Zheng He's mighty fleet "had treasures" on board, so he sent someone to tell Zheng He that he wanted to surrender, but in fact he wanted to surrender, and then robbed Zheng He's fleet in one fell swoop.

What's more, Chen Zuyi looked down on Zheng He at all: what kind of thing is a eunuch, and this eunuch is still famous for his land battles......

Then Shi Jinqing sold Chen Zuyi, and with this, he got the title of the Ming Dynasty, and changed from the Chinese leader of the Three Buddhas to the old port ambassador, and was known as the king of the Three Buddhas.

Then, the original Srivijaya became the old port propaganda envoy, and became an overseas enclave of the Ming Dynasty.

If it is said since ancient times, then there is no doubt that the so-called Indonesia in later generations is the inherent territory of China since Zheng He's journey to the west in ancient times.

Now Zheng He and Zhu Gaosui, the two bad breeds with pus on the top of their heads and sores on the soles of their feet, don't have any good ideas - the Propaganda Envoy is not directly subordinate after all, and the exercise is also a restraint policy, and finding a Comfort Envoy who is completely committed to the Ming Dynasty may turn the Old Hong Kong Propaganda Envoy into the Old Hong Kong Government......

Yang Shaofeng just secretly snorted in his heart, but he heard Zheng He next to him sigh and shouted, "Order!" The artillery warned the official ships of Champa to let the boat come over! ”
