In the next few days, with the divine might of Emperor Yang's arrival, Chen Han led the fleet along the coastline of Aceh, constantly bombarding one after another Mu Dabeard Temple, erasing the old marks on this land. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

And no one in Aceh dared to resist.

Even the Sultan of Aceh ran to the shrine as fast as he could, and the priests there couldn't wait to convert to the Holy Religion, and when he bowed at the feet of Emperor Yang with the Sun and Moon Emblem, he was also canonized as the king of Aceh as he wished, and then officially included in the ranks of the kings of the Ming Dynasty. In order to commemorate this glorious occasion, and also to let future generations remember the great event of the Holy Spirit coming to Aceh to show miracles, His Royal Highness the King of Aceh also announced that Banda Aceh would be renamed Yongshun, which means eternal submission to the Ming Dynasty, and build a nine-zhang high icon at the place of the Holy Spirit of Yongshun City.

Well, he is a foot taller than Avana, the capital of Burma.

In fact, no one is a fool.

For the Sultan of Aceh, no, it should be said that for the King of Aceh, it doesn't matter whether Emperor Yang is a god or not, Emperor Yang can guarantee that he will continue to be the king, this is the most important thing, work hard to serve this guy happily, ensure that his throne is not shaken, and ensure that he and his children and grandchildren can continue to ride on the necks of the people of Aceh, continue to enjoy their blood and sweat offerings, and continue to live a glorious and rich life......

That's all that matters.

As for faith or something......

It's all up to his identity, who doesn't understand this, it's nothing more than a tool of thought control, he doesn't necessarily really believe in fairyland, and he doesn't necessarily really believe that Yang Feng is a god, but he also doesn't necessarily really believe in the paradise of that bunch of chu girls, saying that after serving Yang Feng, he doesn't have to die to enjoy that bunch of chu girls. In the same way, he doesn't necessarily really believe in Lao Mu, in the end, he will believe whoever is beneficial to him, and the current situation is that Lao Mu's side must be out of play, so even if he abandons Lao Mu, there will be no danger, but if he doesn't believe Yang Feng, then he will not be able to see the sun for a few days.

In that case, why didn't he change to a god to worship?

And in the same way, Yang Feng also got what he wanted.

He wanted the Aceh people to be truly submissive, but he also didn't want another continuous guerrilla war in Aceh, he wanted to drive Mu Dabeard out smoothly.

Although the country was small, it was notoriously difficult, and the Dutch did not occupy Banda Aceh until 1873, but the guerrilla war with the Acehnese even lasted for another thirty years, and in fact it was not until 1913 that it was officially annexed as a colony.

And it is undoubtedly best to solve it in this way.

Emperor Yang, or the Holy Spirit as it is now customary, lingered for ten days in the palace of Yongshun before leaving, and his next stop was Ceylon.

At this time, Ceylon should actually be regarded as a Buddhist country, but there are a small number of Tamils who believe in Hinduism in the north, and the war between the two sides has lasted for thousands of years, so after the Sinhalese king of Ceylon officially entered the arms of the Ming Dynasty, the Sinhalese armed with smoothbore guns and artillery shelling provided support such as warships and coastal shelling, and the Sinhalese armed with smoothbore guns carried out many large-scale sweeps of the Tamils, and the fighting between the two sides has not completely subsided until now.

The war, which lasted for many years, caused the population of the island to plummet, and the two communities together are now estimated to be one million.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Daming.

Although Ceylon is a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, in principle, the Ming Dynasty will not intervene in the counterinsurgency operations within the subject country, this is the responsibility of the government of the subject country, as a subject country, even its own domestic bandits can not be solved, it is too incompetent, this is just like the bandit activities in a certain province in the interior of the Ming Dynasty, and can only be exterminated by the local police and reserves, and cannot find the General Staff to mobilize the regular army, the latter is not to do this.

This is despite the fact that Ceylon was actually the largest military base of the Ming army in the Indian Ocean.

This is the residence of the Ceylon Scripture Envoy.

Colombo was home to the headquarters of the Ming Army's Tenth Army, an infantry brigade, an artillery brigade and a garrison, as well as the Third Detachment of the Navy's Nanyang Fleet, while the rest of the Tenth Army was scattered in Bombay, Cochin, Goa, and even Madras and other colonial strongholds taken over from Britain, France, the Netherlands, and Portugal. In any case, these places are all harbors, there are new steamships, and even the fortresses built by the Europeans back then, and these strongholds themselves are supply points, which can be quickly mobilized if needed, and the fleet departed from Ceylon to Surat, the farthest, only five or six days. These strongholds, the Ming troops stationed there, and the merchants who relied on them, were like leeches nailed to the fat sheep of India, constantly sucking its blood, in fact, at this time, the Ceylon envoy was responsible for the Indian peninsula, and the Indian envoy was more like the Bengal envoy and the Ganges envoy.

In fact, Yang Feng does not have much ambition for India now.

Of course, even if he is ambitious, it is useless.

Even if he bulldozed the whole of India, and the common people in the country did not come to immigrate, he would also be in vain, and the reason why he engaged in Bahadur Shah was just to let the Mughal Empire collapse, and then turn India into dozens or even 560 princely states as in the original history, so as to facilitate his control in the future.

To put it bluntly, he was copying the model of British rule in India.

Therefore, he is not prepared to persecute the chaotic forces in southern India, such as Rajas, Nawabs, Maharatis, etc., as long as he induces them to stand separately, and then slowly forces them to submit and become vassal states in various ways.

To put it bluntly, India's most suitable role is that of an economic colony.

As for complete annexation......

Well, the population of this land is more than that of Daming, a conservative estimate of 150 million, when will he have to kill it! It is more cost-effective to squeeze it as an economic colony, and then occasionally make a small famine and spread a small plague.

After arriving in Ceylon, Emperor Yang summoned the king of Ceylon in Colombo or the imperial palace now known as Zhaowu Mansion and cared about the local bandits, encouraged him a few words by the way, and then sent this guy back to Kandy, although there was a road connection from Zhaowu to Kandy at this time, but because the place was bald and there were Buddha's teeth, so Emperor Yang was still not interested in going over. Immediately afterwards, he began to go north along the coastline of eastern India, inspecting the colonial strongholds of the Ming army one by one, and by the way, showing the military might of the Ming Dynasty to the princes who had not yet established themselves in India, and strengthened their determination to watch from the sidelines.

At this time, on the Bengal front, the two armies were still in a state of confrontation.

After the fiasco of attacking Xuance City, Bahadursha also understood the Ming army's defensive ability, since he would definitely not continue to play this suicidal tactic, anyway, his goal was to block the Ming army, and if he couldn't defeat Mursidabad, the Ming army could not continue to advance, so he took Mursidabad as the center during this time, commanding his nearly 200,000 troops, and a large number of conscripted laborers, digging trenches and building fortresses there, and even playing iron ropes on the Ganges River with iron chains.

In short, do everything possible to perfect your defenses.

And the Ming army was also in no hurry.

They had to wait for His Majesty the Emperor, and before Emperor Yang arrived, even if Wang Song wanted to attack, he wouldn't dare to attack.

However, they were not idle during this time, after the arrival of the First Inland Fleet, the Ming army divided a small force along the Jamuna River to the north, with the cooperation of the Bengal army, quickly subdued all parts of northern Bengal, and at the same time continued to enter the Ahong Kingdom upstream, and even sent envoys to the Himalayas until the two tribes of Sikkim and Bhutan, and then announced to these three families that the Ming Emperor asked them to pay tribute.

These three families are also very happy, anyway, they all know that no matter how greedy the Ming is, they will not rob their broken places, they just call their ministers to offer some local products.

No big deal.

Then the envoys of the three families took the inland river warships of the Ming army to the south and brought local products to meet Emperor Yang.

In addition, there are two small states in this area, Injatiya and Kachari, which are not part of the Mughal Empire, which are said to be countries, but in fact they are indigenous tribes, the former are dominated by the mountain people of the Shillong Plateau, the latter is dominated by the Rakhine Mountains, and to the south of them there is the Arakan Kingdom, which is the southwest corner of Myanmar. These are all poor mountains and bad waters, and the harvest after the conquest of a big country is not as good as the loss in the process of conquest, basically they are a copper plate with sticky, although there is value in picking it up, but it is difficult to say whether it is worth sticking a hand of for a copper plate.

It wasn't a silver coin.

Therefore, Yang Feng's principle for them is also to let them continue to be a copper plate stained with, lying in the gutter on the side of the road, silently waiting to rot in the years!

In short, it's the same as dealing with Tibetan areas.

Don't give them modern civilization, let them keep their original ecology in the ignorance of generations!

In fact, there is really some strength in the Akhon Kingdom, or the original historical Assam, these Hindu Dai people control the rich plains of the Brahmaputra Valley, and there have been many wars with the Mughals before, but the Mughals have not been able to conquer them, but have to admit their stubbornness, and the two sides take the Manas River as the official border, and now the Ming army is running to beat the Mughals, and the Ahong people are happy!

What's more, the Ming army in the north has been stationed in Tibet, the Ming army in the east has been stationed in northern Burma, and the Ming army in the west and south has controlled Bengal, and they are completely surrounded by the Ming Dynasty, so how can they still be qualified to resist?

If nothing else, a single salt can kill them. (To be continued.) )
