Chapter 752: The Rise of Aceh II

The Sultan of Aceh immediately met with several of his ministers to discuss the matter, but the discussion was inconclusive.

There are probably two opinions, one is that the Franco-Chem are enemies of Islam, we cannot cooperate with the enemy, they are not credible, maybe they are traps.

The other is to tend to cooperate with the Franc robot.

The reason is that the Franco-Romans are heretics, but the king of Dongyong from the east is also a heretic, and he has discriminated against Islam in the territory, killed Christians, and is an enemy. And the Franc Robot cannot threaten us now, we should cooperate with the Franc Robot to strike at Dongyong and occupy Sumatra. After taking control of the Strait of Malacca, it is not too late to engage the Franc Man.

There was a lot of discussion on both sides.

However, the king of Manthorn has arrived.

He immediately asked to see the Sultan of Aceh.

The king of Manchu was defeated by Wang Zhi, but he was defeated, and he lost all the troops in his hands. If it weren't for Wang Zhi's lack of troops, he would have no intention of expanding his territory outside of Malacca.

Because for Dongyong, the land is enough, and what needs to be done now is to let the land be developed, but too much land is still a burden for Dongyong. Otherwise, the country of Manchurian Canada would have ceased to exist a long time ago.

For a few years, the king of Manthorna could only focus on internal affairs, focusing on not being killed by the tribes below.

Originally, although Aceh was strong, although the Manchurian Kingdom surrendered to Aceh, the King of Manchurian Canada was unwilling and had a bit of self-reliance, but because of the increasingly bad internal affairs of the Manchurian Canada, the Manchurian Canada had to move closer to Aceh's side. In order to ensure that the family of the king of Manthorn can keep the crown of Manthorn.

"Your Majesty the Sultan, we can't afford to miss the opportunity? Dongyong's aggressive situation has been obvious, he built a huge city on the land of Manchurian Canada, it is said that there is as magnificent as the city of Beijing, which can show the ambition of King Yong, he definitely does not want to build a capital city, but to establish an empire in Nanyang, you absolutely even if the Sultan does not attack Dongyong, Dongyong will let the Sultan go? King Manthorn said loudly with tears in his eyes.

Sultan of Aceh said: "There is a lot of pressure in the country to cooperate with these hateful infidels. ”

The king of Aceh himself was a very sober political figure, and he knew what to do to be good for Aceh, on the one hand, he was certainly wary of the Franco, and on the other hand, he was even more wary of Dongyong.

He was wary of Dongyong, not just that Dongyong controlled the Strait of Malacca and restricted trade.

This was not the focus of the King of Aceh, for if he wanted him, he wished that there was always a war in the Strait of Malacca, and that all the ships would make a detour in Aceh anyway.

What worries him is the status of an arbiter that Dongyong naturally has.

Whether the countries of Nanyang are willing or not, they have all been subject countries of the Ming Dynasty before, although it has been a long time, many countries don't care anymore. But when these countries are in danger, they will still ask Dongyong for help.

But Aceh was not satisfied with the status quo, and he wanted to go east.

Under his rule, the power of Aceh increased greatly. However, most of the land of Aceh is mountainous, far from the plains of the eastern part of Sumatra, so the Sultan of Aceh attacked Dongyong not because of trade, but because of land.

It is easy for Aceh to defeat the small countries on the island of Sumatra, but without defeating Dongyong, these small countries must not be classified as territories.

"I think the big mullah of the Monastery is a sensible person." "I think I can convince him," said King Manthorn. ”

The Sultan of Aceh said, "I'll leave it to you." ”

In fact, the Sultan of Aceh has done a lot of work, and the big mullahs have been shaken.

Aceh is one of the important strongholds of the Muslim Eastward Mission, there are special scholastic monasteries to train priests, and it can be said that the influence of Islam here is too great. Even the Sultan was reluctant to go on a campaign without the Great Mullah being convinced.

The king of Manthorna immediately went to see the Great Mullah.

In a Muslim-style Muslim-style Muslim temple.

King Manthorna wept bitterly in front of the big mullahs, telling about the atrocities of Dongyong, the murder of Muslims, and especially the fate of the Muslims of Boni, the Sulu Muslims, and then telling his energy, how he defended the Holy Religion, and was defeated again and again by the vicious King Yong.

Expect the Grand Mullah to support his revenge plans.

I don't know if the big mullah is really convinced by the king of Baimanthorn, or he still finds a step down. Anyway, after the persuasion of King Manchuga, the big mullah decided to agree to cooperate with Franc Ji and attack Dongyong together.

The negotiations between Francois and Aceh entered the substantive stage.

Negotiations between the Sultan of Aceh and Tomei went very well.

The first thing to be finalized was the arms contract.

Although Aceh wants to establish its own military industry, no, Aceh does not have the concept of a military industry, but wants to build guns and guns like Dongyong.

However, this took too long, and Aceh could not wait, so they were ready to buy arms from the Franco. Anyway, trade has also made Aceh a lot of money in recent years.

Second, the offensive plan of the two sides is set to attack eastward along the coastline of Sumatra in half a year, while Manchurian Canada counterattacks Malacca, and Franc attacks Malacca from the sea.

At least 100,000 troops were dispatched together, and they could even reach more than 150,000.

This made Tomei very satisfied.

Among the lessons learned from the defeat of the battle with Dongyong, the first one is that there are few people.

Yes, in general, the strength of the Franc Army is not much different from the strength of the Yong Army, but the difference in numbers is enough to make the Franc Machines desperate.

There must be allies to share the pressure on Dongyong. So that's the main reason for this trip to Aceh.

Thirdly, the trade agreement signed between Aceh and the Franc Aircraft will protect the Franc Aircraft merchant ships within the territory of Aceh.

Aceh mainly sailed Arab ships, and the Franco-Rang people were hostile here, and they always encountered such and such dangers.

After the agreement was signed, Tomei did not stay long and hurried back to Goa.

The Sultan of Aceh looked at the back of the Franc machine ship in the distance, his expression was a little gloomy, and he said secretly: "When Dongyong is defeated, it is time to fight with you heretics." ”

Many things can be put aside, but few people forget.

"Your Excellency." Tomei's assistant said: "You have reached such an agreement with Aceh, I am afraid it will not be easy to explain it when you go back." ”

Although Tomei returned to Goa, he became one of the main leaders of the Eastern Expedition to Dongyong. But many people are worried about him, and this assistant by Tomei's side is one of the people sent to monitor him.

Tomei said, "What's wrong? ”

"Aceh's dissatisfaction with us is clear. If we arm Aceh, will it turn back on us? The assistant said.

Tomei said: "What do you think we can do with Dongyong, can we destroy Dongyong?" ”

The assistant thought for a moment and finally said, "No." ”

It seems that after being defeated by Dongyong, the public opinion of the Franc machine in Goa suddenly reversed, and he originally went to China to make money, and he made a lot of money. When many people saw China's internal contradictions, they had radical ideas, and they put forward the wild idea of attacking and occupying the Ming Dynasty.

However, after being defeated by Dongyong in the first battle, Goa's public opinion suddenly became afraid of the enemy like a tiger, and regarded Dongyong as a strong enemy and Daming as a stronger enemy.

Most people think that in this war, if the Franc machine wins, it will not be able to completely wipe out the Yong army. As the assistant said, no.

"What we want is Dongyong's concessions on trade, as long as we force Dongyong to sign the alliance under the city, Aceh doesn't have to worry about it anymore," Tomei said. Behold his own creation. Anyway, the dead are heretics. ”

The Franco-Romans are not very persistent in missionary work, but this does not mean that they are not hostile to Islam, let alone how many years Spain and Portugal have been fighting with Muslim countries, and they have already disliked each other deeply in their bones.

However, in the Age of Discovery, there is one thing that is more above religion, that is, interests, and this such a large military purchase order is enough to dispel many people's contempt for hair removal.
