There are also some people in Europe who miss the Roman Empire very much, and enjoy how majestic and brilliant the Roman Empire and Charlemagne's Empire would be if they were maintained for a long time.

In fact, why be nostalgic, just look at the East.

Similarly, Jinnige also knew through exchanges that many interesting schools arose during the Ming Dynasty to Wanli. The various schools of thought have the idea of breaking through traditional Confucianism and challenging the secular structure and even the power of officialdom and the status of the royal family.

Some people recall the contention of a hundred schools of thought during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, even if there were many countries divided at that time, fighting wars and disputes all day long, and the words were different, the cars were not on the same track, and there were many differences with the Ming Dynasty.

But isn't that Europe?

At present, there are many languages of the same origin but different languages, and wars between them are very frequent, and various technological inventions, weapon innovations, and ideological impacts are extremely frequent.

It can be said that it is exactly the development of two directions, but in the end, they have come together on the same path.

"Mr. Tolkien, listening to you is better than arguing with a scholar for ten years, I will definitely tell Long Huamin and others about this truth, so that he can feel the enlightenment." Jinnige also learned to make a down-to-earth analogy.

Wang Hongyu felt that he used the word "nonsense" very interestingly: "Haha, Europe and China have common and unique characteristics, and now they have come together, of course, to exchange and understand each other and enhance cooperation in all aspects."

"That's right, I've heard that Rome and the Han Dynasty had already had trade at that time, and now we can't just stop at trade and a small number of scholars like us, and we can provide much more reciprocal help to each other."

"Exactly."

Back to the topic, the next step is to fulfill the political and military promises.

Wang Hongyu said to help them deal with the Dutch.

Kinnige promised to represent the papal side to give the Ming more political friendship, military technology and talent exchanges.

Because Wang Hongyu showed more strength and sincerity, this time the foreigner had to cash in first.

"Ho Kyong Ao has the most advanced Bugarao cannon foundry in Asia, which can produce heavy naval guns and heavy arquebuses, as well as a group of skilled craftsmen," said Kinnie Ge seriously.

The two he was talking about were the Hongyi cannon and the turtledove foot gun called by the Ming Dynasty. At this time, of course, it is a sharp weapon,

Seeing that Wang Hongyu was very familiar with these two types of weapons, Jinnige also omitted a lot of introductions and went straight to the topic:

"Mr. Long Huamin has a much greater influence in Ho Kiang O than me, and after I give him a point, he can promote your deeds in Ho Kiang O. He can directly call in 100 skilled craftsmen to make these weapons for you. ”

"Good!" Wang Hongyu also solemnly said to Jinnige: "Haojingao is small, but its position is very important, and the Dutch people have long planned to attack, according to my intelligence here, they will attack this year."

"This year!?" Jinnige is a little worried that Macao now has only more than 100 professional soldiers and hundreds of militiamen, and it will be able to complete the replenishment of troops and horses from Goa next year.

The Dutch people will fight this year, and I'm afraid the situation is a bit of a crisis.

Wang Hongyu patted Jinnige on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Ben Hou plans to let Cai Fuyi transfer troops to defend Haojing Ao, and more importantly, to form a huge fleet and wipe out the fleet attacking from the Netherlands, so that they can know that it is powerful!"

"Ahh Great, Mr. Tolkien, would you like to come directly? But this is equivalent to a firefight between the Ming Dynasty and the East India Company in the Netherlands, I think you pay more than you return? ”

Jin Nige is a person who is knowledgeable and understands politics, not those pirate merchants of the Dutch East India Company, he feels that Wang Hongyu has paid a little too much for sending troops, so remind him.

"Hahahaha! What a wonderful gentleman, Mr. Kinnico. So I have two additional thoughts. ”

"Well, please." Kinney Pavilion thinks that this is right, and cooperation and diplomacy emphasize mutual benefit and reciprocity.

"First, the lease of Hao Jingao is still the same, but the soldiers, horses, and personnel of the Ming Dynasty can come and go according to the approval, and they only need to prepare their own food."

During the Ming Dynasty, Macao was leased to the Francophiles, and although there was a lot of cooperation between the two sides, there was a loss of sovereignty after all.

This first condition is equivalent to the sovereignty of military and civilian exchanges, but the management right is leased to the Franco. It is equivalent to not impairing sovereignty as much as possible, and allowing the other party to do a good job of normal management.

Hearing this, Jinnige pondered slightly, thought for a while, and replied: "Yes, after all, the Ming Dynasty defends us against the Dutch people, and this is also the land of the Ming Dynasty, we lease the management and management rights, and the soldiers and horses have an order from you or your consent, and we can accept it."

Oh? Jinnige is also deliberating on the details of diplomacy, and what he is talking about here is that he is open to me, Wang Hongyu, not anyone else.

"The transfer of troops is the transfer of me or my officials, but the people must come and go freely, after all, it is part of the Ming Dynasty, and Hao Jingao itself does not prohibit the people from coming and going, right?"

"Yes, you're right, we agree."

The first one is finished, and there is a second condition.

However, it is said that assisting in the defense of Macao, and dealing with the attacking Dutch, is supposedly only sufficient for the first condition, and the second is supposedly to add some more benefits.

Wang Hongyu was confident: "The second thing is Malacca." It is your trading post and the most important point in East Asia to South Asia, West Asia and Africa, and Europe. ”

"That's right, Mr. Tolkien, you always find the key at once."

"The Dutch and others will be eyeing Malacca, and losing Malacca would be a huge loss for both of us. Therefore, there can also be a cooperation similar to that of Ho Jing O. ”

？

Jinnige is a little confused this time, the first half of the words are easy to understand, what should the second half do? Malacca is not Macau, and there is always some ...... for the direct garrison of the Ming Dynasty

"Next to Malacca, build a small Chinese town, and I will send a small army of soldiers and horses. In this way, the Ming Dynasty and the Franc machine will protect the Strait of Malacca together, so that the Netherlands will not return. ”

"Wonderful!" Kinney Pavilion applauded.

Franc is also very small in Portugal, and in super strategic places like Goa and Malacca, there are only small communities with a population of a few thousand.

Under pressure from the Mughals or the Malays, it would be very dangerous for the Dutch to return.

If the strongest Ming in East Asia makes a move, especially a figure like Wang Hongyu, it will really solve the crisis.

Moreover, in Malacca, instead of directly stationing into Malacca, a city was built next to it, so it was indeed a good idea to rely on each other.

"Where do you choose?"

"Sin Chew."

"Sin Chew?"

Jinnige thought about it for a long time, and then remembered that in the west of Malacca, there is a small fishing village called Sin Chau. There are a lot of Chinese and Malays in the area, so it is indeed a good location, and it is not far from Malacca City, so they can support each other.

"Good! Here in Sin Chew, please let your men in, and in the future, we will protect each other's eastern shipping lanes, both to guard against Dutch ambitions, and to expand ports and trade together. ”

"Of course!" A big stone fell to the ground in Wang Hongyu's heart.

Sin Chew ...... Singapore too.

In the future, it will not only be the richest place in South Asia and Southeast Asia, not only a city with a large number of Chinese, but also a place where exchanges and education in South Asia and Southeast Asia meet......

It will also be a solid base for China, ensuring the security of the Strait of Malacca, and demonstrating China's inclusiveness, prosperity, enthusiasm and strength.

Since then, the Strait of Malacca has gradually come under the dominance of China.
