Chapter 1o65 The Dutch are expelled from the South Seas
οΌ1o65οΌ
[Today's second update is delivered! ] γ
Half a month after Zhang Zhun arrived in Brunei, the Spanish envoy hurried to Brunei. The Tiger Navy won Al Giadin and Brunei in succession, which was a mixed bag for the Spaniards. The good thing is that the strength of the Dutch, a fierce rival, has been weakened again. When the Spaniards and Dutch met in the future, they no longer had to fear each other's strength.
The disadvantage is that the front door drove the tiger and the back door entered the wolf, and the Dutch were driven away, but the more powerful tiger army and navy came. In the future, Nanyang, because of the existence of the Tiger Ben Navy, can be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes. After half a month of serious and cautious consideration at the top of Manila, the Spaniards finally decided to send an official envoy to the Tiger Army.
Compared with the Dutch, the prospect of the Tiger Army's navy made the Spaniards even more worried. No matter how strong the Dutch are, their roots are in Europe, in the North Atlantic. To be precise, everyone's struggle in the Far East has nothing to do with the country's capital, only the question of the number of interests. However, the Tiger Army Navy is different.
Nanyang was right under the nose of the Chinese Empire. According to the thinking of ordinary people, the Tiger Ben Army will definitely include Nanyang in the sphere of influence of the Chinese Empire. Korea, Japan, Taiwan and other places have been controlled by the Chinese Empire. Nanyang will certainly not be an exception. It is conceivable that the Spaniards wanted to continue to exist in the South Seas and continue to profit from the trade in the South Seas, which was unthinkable without the support of the Tiger Army.
The emissary of Spain, called Capdevilla, was the envoy of Perrotta, the governor of Spain. After arriving in Brunei, Capdevilla asked to see Zhang Zhun. However, Wang Shide tactfully told him that His Majesty, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, could not see him for the time being. There was no way, Capdevilla could only wait for the time being. Finally, he didn't have to wait long. Three days later, Zhang Zhun met with Capdevilla.
"Mr. Special Envoy, please."
Zhang Zhun made a posture of please sit.
Capdevilla took her top hat and bent down to salute before sitting down with her body straight. From his posture, Zhang Zhun could see that the other party was a standard soldier. His identity as an envoy seems to have some special meaning! Of course, Zhang Zhun would not have thought that the Spaniards had come to declare war on him. In fact, after the Tiger Ben Navy entered the South Seas, the clever Spaniards had already withdrawn their fleet to the port of Manila.
From this action, it can be seen that the Spaniards' current mind is to keep the trade rights in the South Seas, rather than to seize more strongholds. It has to be said that the Spaniards are still very self-aware. Such an action can gain the favor of the Tiger Ben Army in a great way. In the future trade of the South Seas, there will definitely be a piece of the pie of their Spaniards.
After sitting down, Capdevilla's mood has been a little nervous and uneasy, and a little bit of a gain and loss. He knew that the topic he was going to talk about with Zhang Zhun today was a little embarrassed and a little embarrassing. However, it is not possible to talk about it. Even, it is not possible to talk openly and honestly. The Spaniards are eager to know, where is the bottom line of the Tiger Army?
Zhang Zhun saw the other party's nervousness and uneasiness, so he said with a smile: "Governor Perrotta doesn't need to have any worries, isn't our business doing very well?" β
Capdevilla said respectfully, "This needs to be thanked for the generosity of His Majesty the Emperor. β
Zhang Zhun said bluntly: "If Mr. Special Envoy is willing, you might as well convey my meaning to the Dutch, as long as the Dutch withdraw from the Far East and retreat to the west of the Cape of Good Hope, they and I can also become friends." β
Capdevilla thought to himself, you want the Dutch to withdraw from the Far East, and you want the Dutch to give up this piece of fΓ©irou, where is such a good thing? The Dutch make millions of pounds a year in the Far East, which is a heavy cornucopia! It is strange that the Dutch are willing to give up. If the Spaniards really conveyed Zhang Zhun's meaning to the Dutch, maybe the Dutch would think that the Spaniards and the Tiger Ben Army and Navy had colluded together.
Of course, the Spaniards are not completely unwilling to convey such words for Zhang Zhun, but the Spaniards are also conditional. He cannot make a formal commitment until these conditions are met. However, Capdevilla's thoughts are really difficult to express. The main reason, of course, is that the Spaniards are not able to catch Mo, and how big Zhang Zhun's appetite is. Is the Chinese Empire going to dominate the entire Far Eastern Seas?
If the Chinese Empire really wanted to dominate the entire South Seas, if the Dutch were driven away, the Spaniards would still know the basic way. What they want to see most is the balance of various forces in the South Seas. Only in this way will the Spaniards be able to take in the maximum benefit.
Capdevilla was silent for a moment, and then said euphemistically, "Your Majesty the Emperor, we are willing to serve you. But what if the Dutch refused to leave? β
Zhang Zhun turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, and said lightly: "I think they will be willing." β
Capdevilla followed Zhang Zhun's gaze and looked out the window, his face slightly strange. In the end, he couldn't help but take a light breath of cold air, and wisely retracted everything he wanted to say back into his mouth. For what he saw was a dense mass of warships. Zhang Zhun didn't say anything, these warships themselves are the most powerful persuasive force.
There are at least 100 Tiger Warrior warships moored in the Brunei Military Port, of which there are at least 50 large warships. With such a naval force, dealing with the Dutch navy in Batavia is like smashing the egg with a hammer, and the consequences can be imagined. Don't say that the Dutch have lost one main fleet, even if the two main fleets are all complete, I'm afraid they are not the opponent of the Tiger Navy!
"Terrible Zhang Zhun!
"Terrible Tiger Navy!"
Capdevilla had to sigh helplessly and muttered to himself secretly. He made it clear that the Dutch were indeed unable to withstand it this time. According to normal thinking, it is absolutely impossible for the Batavian side to take action of armed resistance.
When the Dutch lost, the British immediately attacked the Dutch merchant fleet. More than 6o% of the merchant ships returning to the Netherlands from the New University 6 were sacked by British pirates. Dutch maritime trade was challenged like never before. Now the Dutch must concentrate all their naval forces and protect their interests in the Atlantic first.
In the interests of the Far East, even with significant losses, the Netherlands would not lose the country. However, if the interests in the North Atlantic were lost, the Netherlands was in danger of extinction. There is unconfirmed information that after the Tiger Navy took control of Brunei, the Thirteenth Fleet of the Dutch Navy led by Fil Claw had left Batavia and returned to the Atlantic.
What does this mean? It means that the Dutch have been forced to give up their interests in the Far East, which means that the Dutch in the Far East have recognized that militarily they are no match for the Tiger Army. It means that they hope to resolve the dispute of interests in Nanyang through peaceful means.
It's also funny to say that the most arrogant and domineering people in the past were the Dutch, who never refused to negotiate interests with others at the negotiating table. Now, when the more arrogant and domineering Tiger Navy, arrived, the Dutch had to make a request for negotiations, which was a little too ironic. In this world, the fist at sea is the biggest!
Zhang Zhun said slowly: "I hope that a round table will be held in Brunei, and all countries can participate." We can enter into a treaty that separates military struggles from commercial trade activities. All merchants can trade normally in the South Seas. β
For Zhang Zhun's proposal, the Spaniards have actually received the wind. If it had been before, the Spaniards would certainly not have considered such a proposal. Because, this means that the Spaniards' black chao route will also be joined by other merchants. What kind of business can be more profitable than monopoly? Once the monopoly was broken, the good days of the Spaniards came to an end.
But now, the Spaniards must take this proposal into account. Because, in the current Nanyang, purely in terms of military strength, the Tiger Army Navy is already the boss. Even the Dutch navy was no match for the Tiger Navy, and even less so the Spaniards. The Spaniards are still self-aware, and they don't want to turn against the Tiger Navy.
If they did not participate in this treaty, all the Spanish merchants would be expelled from the South Seas, and they would not even get a piece of the last pie. The Spaniards even estimated that this was what Zhang Zhun wanted to see the most. Because, in this way, the Tiger Army Navy has a justifiable excuse to declare war on the Spaniards.
Capdevilla said: "What if the Dutch don't participate? β
Zhang Zhun said coldly: "After that, the trade activities in Nanyang will not have the share of the Dutch. β
Capdevilla had no choice but to agree.
Now that the Spaniards agreed, the rest was simple.
A month later, representatives of the Chinese Empire, Korea, the Japanese Imperial Family, the Tokugawa Family, Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Britain and other forces gathered in Brunei and soon signed the so-called "Brunei Commercial Covenant", or "Brunei Commercial Treaty".
Sure enough, the Dutch did not participate in the treaty. The Batavian side knew very well that this treaty was aimed at the Dutch, and of course they would not come to Brunei to make a fool of themselves. Zhang Zhun then publicly announced that the Huben Navy would expel all Dutch merchant ships in the South Seas. If there is a disobedient, they will be attacked, and may even be sunk outright.
The main content of the "Brunei Commercial Treaty" is to advocate trade equality between all parties and break down all trade barriers. At the same time, the treaty also specifically stipulates that the navy of any country shall not detain the merchant ships of other signatory countries in any way in the South Seas. If this rule is violated, it will be subject to a joint crusade by other forces.
This agreement is obviously beneficial to the Tiger Army. Because, with the arrival of the Tiger Ben Navy, a large number of Chinese merchant ships will pour into the South China Sea like chao water. Relying on the huge production base and consumer group of the Chinese Empire, all commercial trade in Nanyang was carried out around the Chinese Empire. In other words, it was the merchants of the Chinese Empire who were the leaders of the Nanyang trade, and everyone else was just a handmaker.
Without the support of armed forces, the Western powers could not fight the locust-like Chinese merchant ships in their normal trade activities. Whether in terms of the variety of goods, the cost of labor, or the cost of goods, foreign merchant ships are far from being the opponents of Chinese merchant ships. There is no doubt that all the Western powers have suffered dumb losses this time.
However, judging from the wording of the agreement, it is extremely fair. No matter how shrewd a person is, he can't find any terms in the covenant that can be supplied to the Huaxia Empire. In the face of the strong pressure of the Tiger Ben Navy, no one was willing to rise up to challenge the authority of the Chinese Empire. The ups and downs are only tasted by each family.
β¦β¦
With the signing of the "Brunei Commercial Treaty", the commercial trade in the Nanyang region has entered a new stage. The Dutch cowered in Batavia without the slightest movement. In the South Seas, there are patrolling Tiger Warrior warships everywhere. In this context, the British, mainly Saviara, can finally return to China smoothly.
Saiviala got her wish and got all the technical information of the tiger from Zhang Zhun here. At the same time, Zhang Zhun also allocated 500 brand-new tiger guns to her as samples. The promise that Zhang Zhun made years ago has finally been fulfilled today.
Of course, Saviara and the others have to pay much more than that. The technical data of British warships and artillery, as well as the advanced knowledge of the Royal Naval College, were all absorbed by the Tiger Army. The current Tiger Ben Navy is quite Westernized.
Before leaving, Zhang Zhun allocated a brand-new King Kong ship and five brand-new Dragon God ships to Saiviara as her sΔ« fleet. With such strength, there will never be any risks on her way back to the UK. The British were the Dutch. Now, the Dutch forces east of the Cape of Good Hope have been severely damaged by the Tiger Ben Navy, and they have no ability to cause trouble.
In the port of Brunei, all the British, are ready to go. Zhang Zhun personally came to see him off. Everyone around him avoided it and let him talk to Saiviara alone. Many of the things that many people expected to happen before were not born in the end. This makes many people feel that at this moment of separation, the two must have a lot to say.
Saiviara reluctantly said, "I'm leaving." β
Zhang Zhun smiled and said: "Send you a thousand miles, and you must say goodbye in the end." Have a nice trip! β
Saviara whispered, "When are you coming to England?" β
Zhang Zhun said leisurely: "Why are you in such a hurry? β
Saiara said stupidly, "I'm going to comg with you." Here, it's your territory, and I can't force you. However, when you come to England, it is my territory, and I must get you. You're mine, and you can't run away! β
Zhang Zhun smiled and said heartily: "When you say that, I yearn for you in the UK." I can guarantee that I will definitely travel to the UK in my lifetime. However, I guess you won't be able to wait for that time. β
Saviara said seriously, "I will." If I can't wait, I'll come to the East to find you. When the time comes, you can't refuse me again! I'm twenty-five now, and a woman can have children at a maximum of thirty-five, you calculate it yourself! β
Zhang Zhun smiled and nodded, staggered the topic and said, "Ask me to say hello to Cromwell." β
Saviara happily went.
Shen Lingfei was a little puzzled and said, "Master, you just let her go like this?" β
Zhang Zhun said with a smile: "What should I do?" β
Shen Lingfei said a little strangely: "I thought you would eat her." β
Zhang Zhun shook his head and smiled, and suddenly said, "You want to know why I didn't attack her?" β
Shen Lingfei said honestly: "I don't know." β
Zhang Zhun said leisurely: "I don't like the things I have used, others use them again." If I eat her now, and she goes back and steals it again, won't I be cuckolded? I'm the emperor of the Chinese Empire, how can I let someone cuckold me? β
Shen Lingfei whispered: "it! β
β¦β¦
In September of the first year of Xia Wu, the seventh batch of dragon god ships was launched, a total of fifty ships.
At the beginning of October, the three fleets of the Tiger Army Navy gathered in the waters near Batavia.
Thirty King Kong ships, more than 100 Dragon God ships, and more than 200 saber ships were neatly lined up outside the port of Batavia. The Dutch navy, which had already gone to the forefront, had to accept the demands of the Tiger Army, Jiao out of Batavia, and withdraw all the Dutch from the Far East. This meant that the Dutch power in the Far East had completely disappeared.
On October 10 of the first year of Xia Wu, the Huben navy established a stronghold in Batavia. In the same month, the Tiger Ben Navy established its own strongholds in Malnat, Amberna, Surabaya, and Baring, which were previously occupied by the Dutch. Eventually, these strongholds were expanded into towns, and a large number of migrants from the interior arrived.
In mid-November, the director general of the Dutch East India Company, Stekelenberg, left the Far East in disgrace. This marked the complete disappearance of the last Dutch in the Far East. Subsequently, all the forces in the South Seas withdrew their own navy to their own country, so as not to attract the siege of the Tiger Ben Navy.
Zhang Zhun is right, Nanyang is indeed the doorstep of the Chinese Empire. The Tiger Ben Navy goes back and forth, and it will take a month at most. However, with them, it takes almost a year to go back and forth. There is no way to make up for this gap in distance. Rather than suffering the destruction of the Tiger Ben Army Navy in the event of a conflict, it is better to be proactive, crisp, and wise, and leave a good impression on the Tiger Army.
In December, Zhang Zhun arrived in Malacca. The Portuguese had already signed the "Brunei Commercial Treaty" at the Brunei Conference, and naturally they would not resist the arrival of the Tiger Ben Navy. The Portuguese actually understood that the arrival of the Tiger Army this time was purely passing by. Their target is the distant Indo-Ocean.
The Strait of Malacca is safe, and the opportunity is ripe for an attack on the Mughals. Zhang Zhun was about to go to Ceylon to make arrangements for the attack on the Mughal Dynasty.
