The port of Goa, India, the seat of the Western military government.

The new batch of weapons and goods passing through the Strait of Malacca was unloaded from the warships, and the young officers commanded the flag army of the local guard post to carry batches of cotton thread and iron ingots to the ships.

Qi Jimei, the chief military officer of Indonan, turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the guards in front of the yamen, and finally glanced back at the bustling market under the scorching sun, sorted out his official robes, and stepped into the official residence.

The Turkic envoy, wrapped in a turban, bearded and dressed in Ottoman robes, was walking out of the mansion, looked at him in a daze, raised his hands stiffly, and without waiting for him to return the salute, he lifted his feet and left, stepped on the servant's back, turned on his horse, and headed north.

The Mughal army did not have ships and did not develop a navy, but they had large warships and many guns, and they were pilgrimage ships directly under Akbar, which were scarce in number.

Being glared at by a foreign envoy like a knife for no reason made Qi Jimei, who had just returned from the Lion Country, feel strange, in his impression, the Western military government has good relations with all the surrounding countries, and this should not happen.

The Western military government was not as fond of being a father as the Nanyang military government, and they relied on trade to get everything they wanted without any war, and despite being neighbors to the Mughals, Safavids, and Ottomans, they were never involved in territorial disputes or wars between them.

Backed by the armed forces of the Western military government, the Ming merchants were independent of this land, even if the merchants were doing business on the border of the war, everyone ran away and the shops of the Ming Dynasty could still operate normally, and even a peaceful area could be carved out on the battlefield to protect the people.

This feeling made Qi Jimei feel too strange - he hadn't been glared at with hatred for a long time.

Walking into the main hall of the military government's yamen, he saw the old but strong Western minister Yin Zhengmao sitting on the chair, his arm propped up on the tea table with his hand on his head, and the corners of his mouth drooped downward: "Are you back?" Sit down, you have come just in time, the envoy of the Mongols has just left. ”

"The lowly official saw it, and took a look at him when he entered the mansion." Qi Jimei sat in the hall after the military salute, and said helplessly: "Do you want Daming to make profits in trade?" It looked like he had failed in negotiations. ”

Yin Zhengmao shook his head slowly, the corners of his mouth stiffly hooked upward, as if he was amused by Qi Jimei's relaxed tone, but he didn't laugh, he just raised his left hand and asked the guard standing next to him to take the official document on the table to Qi Jimei, and said: "It's not trade, four years ago, the Mughal just conquered the eastern region of the rebellion, the war spread to Bihar and Bangladesh provinces, they sent a large army to quell the rebellion, saying that it was blocked by the warships anchored by the Ming army in the Ganges, and these ships also sank their boats to transport baggage. ”

"The old man didn't know that the military government actually anchored the battleship in the Ganges."

Qi Jimei spread her hands in front of her, her expression was very innocent, and she opened her mouth several times in succession before she said cowardly: "Humble, I don't know if I am humble." ”

Yin Zhengmao raised his hand as he spoke, pointed outside the yamen, and said, "Their envoy has been in the old man's yamen for four days, and said that the king of the country has sent an envoy to the east to meet His Majesty before March. ”

"The rider who came back this morning said that there is indeed a Liujia battleship parked in the Ganges, and it is Nanchang, the flagship of Bai Guwei's Yikong Zhao, who was ordered to escort the abbot of Western Shaolin Tianshi to teach the Dharma in Bengal, alas."

Looking at Yin Zhengmao's appearance, the old man was very angry: "That's a wine and meat monk, how can a master eat two catties of beef a day?" Also guard the teachings! What Dharma can he teach? In two years, he visited 400 temples in Myanmar. ”

"The old man didn't believe it at first, and insisted that it was not my Western warship, but the rider came back and said that it was our warship, and there were more than 200 merchant ships, more than 10,000 monks and warriors who had shipped from Burma, and even war elephants had been transported, so it was no wonder that people came to complain."

Yin Zhengmao was extremely helpless: "The old man is seventy-seven in his sixties this year, not as young as Chen Lan from Nanyang and Chen Mu from Dongyang, how can he clean these things under his rule?" ”

This is not the first time that something similar has happened, since Yin Zhengmao took office as the Minister of the West, the first person to wipe his ass was Lin Afeng, the pirate leader deceived the Lion Country gems, and then attacked and looted Goa, and then provoked the merchant ships of the coastal countries.

Everyone thought that it was the ship of his Western military government, and it was not easy to clean himself up from this matter to carry out his work, planning to clear the pirates first, and the high arch of the South Seas sent a message to let him work with Lin Feng, and then the emperor simply gave Lin Feng the king.

When this will be another great monk, I don't know which tendon is wrong, and he wants to join the war of the Bengal rebels, gather tens of thousands of Buddha disciples to lock the Ganges River, cut off the baggage line of the Mughal counterinsurgency army, and occupy the fortress of Patna with one foot, and want to wipe out the counterinsurgency army.

"The old man said a long time ago that he shouldn't have let the remnants of Mang Yinglong's defeated soldiers flee into the temple, and sooner or later there would be an incident."

As soon as Yin Zhengmao said that he was a monk of Tianshi, Qi Jimei understood.

Acquaintance, when he commanded 3,000 Zhedong bird gunners to garrison Burma, he also invited Tianshi to teach the art of stabbing guns.

"That's the people of the Nanyang Military Government, the first to be the head of the gun and stick under the command of Chen Shuai of the East, Chen Shuai returned to Beijing to ask the cabinet for instructions on the grounds that there are many temples in Myanmar and ****, and canonized him as the abbot of West Shaolin, which is intended to spread Buddhism to the West."

"People from the Nanyang Military Mansion? That's the one you only know and don't know the other, he is Yu Shuai's person. Yin Zhengmao and Yu Dayou teamed up several times, and said to all this: "As early as the thirty-second year of Jiajing, the Japanese invaded Hangzhou, the three divisions took the monks and soldiers forty as the forerunner, and the leaders of the monks were innocent and Tianchi, and they broke the Japanese invaders. ”

"Tianshi is that he will go down the mountain, and he joined Yu Shuai in the army for 20 years, and then broke the law and was taken in by Chen Shuai...... Where in the world is there such a thing, huh? Chen Shuai didn't have a good heart! Buddhism spreads to the west, the emperor and the cabinet don't know, but Chen Shuai knows, pick this abbot to spread Buddhism to the west, which Buddhism can be transmitted? Is it the Bird Gun Dharma or the Buddha Rang Machine Dharma? ”

"It's the same this time, Tianshi led hundreds of Guangcheng monks and soldiers into India, and was accidentally injured by the counterinsurgency army in the soup soup outside the city, forty-four monks were killed, and tens of thousands of defeated soldiers in Burma were collected into the temple, and they crossed the sea by boat at the sound of an order, he was going to fight!"

In fact, Yin Zhengmao was not too annoyed by Tianshi, what he was most annoyed about was this Western military government.

Speaking of which, your Nanyang Military Mansion, regardless of the high arch in the past or the current Chen Luan, is the emperor of the hundred countries of Nanyang, and no matter what he does, he can decide in one word; You Oriental Military Office, the official worship of the Oriental Minister fought with Spain there, and that was also the emperor's Shang Fang sword, and you can act as the emperor overseas.

What about his Western military government?

Pirates, pirates can't manage the statehood; Monk, monk can't control the war.

It's very weak!

Qi Jimei couldn't feel the imbalance in Yin Zhengmao's heart at all, he felt that this matter was quite reasonable, if you killed the monk of the Ming Dynasty, then don't blame the monk for beating you, right?

Letting the monks beat you alone has already left a face.

"Then Dashuai, what should we do, do we want to help in the war? This is the abbot of West Shaolin personally appointed by His Majesty, and the cabinet has an official document for them to spread Buddhism to the west. ”

"Help? Do you still need to help in the war? ”

Yin Zhengmao shook his head and said: "He doesn't need us to help in the war, Tianshi has already issued an order for monks to ask for help, not only the monks in Myanmar, but also Wutai Mountain, Funiu Mountain, Shaomu Mountain, Jiulian Mountain in China, and even the monks who went to Korea and Japan for help have already boarded the ship on the road, and they still need us to help in the war?" The great monk was a madman. ”

Qi Jimei blinked, and her mind was a little wooden about the current situation: "Then, what should he do if he has so many people?" ”

"Baggage? You go and ask if the excitement is not a big deal, Fujian, Guangzhou, and prosperity are prosperous, and the merchants and merchants jointly want to ask the Western military government to allow gunpowder to be sold into Bangladesh with nine times the tax. ”
