"What, the Spanish army has withdrawn to the north? And demolished the city of Marrakech? Seeing the information sent back by Kohler's spy sent to Spain, Marin was a little stunned.

According to Marin's plan, Spain should play hide-and-seek with the remnants of the Vatas dynasty all day long, and then spend a lot of money and food. In this way, even if Spain took advantage of the windfall profits of India's spice trade, it would be wasted on the Moroccan battlefield.

However, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba, half of Marin's disciple (Marin once taught him the "Marin phalanx" and was considered half of his teacher), was so bold that Marin was willing to abandon the southern part of Morocco and stabilize the northern region first, which surprised Marin. The most important thing is that both Ferdinand II and Juan III actually agreed......

"It seems that the Spaniards are not stupid......"

Marin was disappointed, he had hoped to use the Moroccan war to drain Spain. As a result, the Spaniards were willing to abandon the south and concentrate on the north first. This is difficult because it is much less difficult to concentrate on the northern part of Morocco, which is close to Spain.

Marin was a little anxious, if Spain could eat all of Morocco, then the Spaniards would be free to do something else. If they set their sights on the Americas again...... Marin's current naval strength is not enough to dominate the Americas......

Fortunately, when he saw the last piece of information, Marin was happy......

The last piece of information was that Spain's notorious Inquisition was anxious to take control of religious affairs in the northern part of Morocco, which was occupied by Spanish troops......

Who were the people of the Inquisition? That's a bunch of madmen who are passionate about persecuting heretics. Let them go to Morocco to toss, it will only force those Allahists in Morocco to rebel. As long as this group of people is tossing around in northern Morocco, the Moroccan Allahists will surely rise up in revolt. When the time comes, it will definitely be enough for Spain to drink a pot.

But Marin was not enough, and decided to make a secret move, and let the madmen of the Inquisition make things bigger, so as to provoke the Moroccans to the greatest extent and provoke them to revolt.

So Marin instructed Kohler:

"You sent spies to bribe the priests of the Spanish Inquisition, which took over the religious affairs of Morocco, and instigated them to confiscate the property of the Allahites who did not want to convert to Catholicism in Morocco, and to expel them from Morocco or burn them to death!"

Marin's idea was very shady, and he didn't worry that the priests of the Inquisition wouldn't take the bait. Why? Because one of them, "confiscation of the property of the infidels", would have attracted the clergy of the Spanish Inquisition.

Moreover, this was not the first time that the Spanish Inquisition had done this. For example, in Spain itself, the Spanish Inquisition had confiscated the property of wealthy Jewish merchants who did not want to convert to Catholicism. In 1492, 200,000 Jews with wealth and technology were expelled from the Spanish Inquisition. Of course, the property of those Jews was confiscated. Eventually, many of those Jews were taken up by the Turkish Sultan Basayet II, and thus contributed to the development of Turkish printing and other technologies, as well as cultural progress.

Therefore, the notorious Spanish Inquisition was absolutely familiar with this kind of of forcibly seizing the property of the infidels. Even if Marlin didn't push it secretly, they would do it. It's just that after Marin secretly pushed, maybe they were more motivated.

However, it should be pointed out that the Arabs and Berbers of Morocco are not cowardly Jews, but a fierce group of fierce men who can ride horses and wield scimitars.

The Jews had been oppressed by the Europeans for thousands of years, and they had long since been oppressed to the point that they had lost the courage to resist. Moreover, the Jews in Europe were shouted and fought by almost no supporters, and if they tried to resist, they would definitely be defeated.

The Arabs of Morocco are different from the Berbers, they are fierce nomads, they can ride horses, and they can use scimitars to cut people.

If they were to be deported from the country, they would not rest on their laurels. When the time comes, they will definitely rise up and fight the Spaniards. At that time, all Marin had to do was to send horses and scimitars to the unwilling Arabs and Berbers......

However, it seems inappropriate for Marlin to do this. Marin asked Kohler to repeat his old trick and go to the Venetians and the French to secretly support the Moroccan revolt. In any case, both countries have enmity with the Spaniards, and they must be willing to make trouble for the Spaniards.

In addition, Marin would also remind the Venetians and the French of the secret financing of the Vattas. For example, the provision of money, food and weapons.

Because, Marin heard that the Spaniards did not blockade the southern coast of Morocco. As long as the Venetians and the French secretly sent ships to the southern coast of Morocco and quietly provided the remnants of the Wattas dynasty with money, food, and weapons, they could keep the Wattas dynasty going.

Moreover, the Moroccan cavalry needed a simple weapon, as long as they had a scimitar and a war horse, they could fight.

Even if the Spaniards wanted to blockade the southern coast of Morocco, it would be difficult to do so. After all, Spain in this era did not have satellites and radars to monitor the entire southern coast.

Even in later generations with satellites and radars, smuggling is rampant in coastal areas. After all, it was easy to avoid the blockade of the Spanish fleet by sailing in the middle of the night.

And France was the easiest to secretly support the Wattas dynasty, because France could send ships directly and quietly to the southern coast of Morocco through ports on the Atlantic coast. Unlike Venice, if you want to send a ship to the southern coast of Morocco, you need to first pass through the Strait of Gibraltar, which is controlled by the Spaniards, and there is a high probability of detection. And the French ships could sail on the wide Atlantic Ocean, and with care, they were less likely to be spotted......

As long as the Wattas dynasty was able to receive outside support, it would not collapse due to the loss of its main source of finance. In this way, they will be able to hold out longer and continue to cause problems for the Spaniards......

……

After arranging these things, the time has entered November. At this time, it is already late autumn and early winter. The oceans of the Northern Hemisphere are virtually free of tropical storms. The biggest danger is probably a floating iceberg similar to the Titanic.

However, as long as you don't sail recklessly at night and watch carefully, the probability of an accident is not very high. After all, floating icebergs are not as powerful as tropical storms and can be avoided.

Marin is now on a ship and can arrive in Panama at the end of the year. Then, take a boat from Panama City across the Pacific Ocean to the Ming Dynasty. From Panama to the west of the Ming Empire, because the road is smooth, you can reach it in three months. And the time period is exactly in the spring. Tropical storms such as typhoons in the western Pacific are mainly in May ~ September. As long as you start in time, you can avoid the typhoon season. As long as it was not a powerful storm like a typhoon, even if it encountered a larger storm at sea, all 10 of Marin's warships would definitely not sink. As long as there are 10 warships left, even if the battleship Marin is ridden is sunk, Marin can be rescued to another ship and avoid the disaster......

In this way, after preparing everything necessary for the voyage, Marin took Dürer and other retinues and began to board the ship and head to the Bay of Colón in Panama. Then, land there and cross the Isthmus of Panama to join the 10 warships waiting there before heading to Daming. Counting the time, that fleet was almost in Panama City......
