Chapter 634 "Love for Peace"

Why did the great powers understand it this way? Daming's trade license is too difficult to get, and it is not issued for the state, but for individuals. Now after this negotiation, as long as it is Portuguese, it will be automatically extended, and the expired permit will be automatically extended for three years, as long as it is in the next three years, a new one can be issued.

There is also the fact that the Portuguese are now under the threat of the Dutch, which can be described as precarious. Whether they can occupy this territory or not, no one can say. To be exact, if it weren't for the British challenge to the Dutch, the Portuguese might not have been able to hold on to it. Now that Da Ming is here, he borrowed ten dares from the Dutch, and he didn't dare to worry about it.

As for the face of the Portuguese as a great power at this stage, hehe, is it necessary for the Portuguese to keep this thing now? In exchange for half of the place for the "friend" of Daming, this deal is actually very cost-effective. As for the Ming Dynasty's participation in the world maritime trade, which caused a threat, no one can care about this issue.

After the formal contract was signed, His Excellency Chen Xie, the Duke of Xinghai in the Ming Dynasty, was half the master of this place.

Chen Xie said that he is an international friend who loves peace, so he must maintain peace. This India was still in the Mughal period of India, which can be said to be the time when India was relatively strong. This will go to India to engage in some kind of robbery, and it is estimated that he will be killed by a sea of people. So, if you want peace, you must be peaceful.

In order to ensure peace, in the presence of envoys from various countries, Chen Xie repeatedly stressed. In the future, in India and Southeast Asia, everyone should stop calling around and do business well. If there is really something that cannot be solved, then it will be negotiated. Whoever provokes a trade dispute and causes a war without authorization is the enemy of the Ming Dynasty.

If this is released, basically there will be no open fighting in this area. "Pirates" will definitely not be eradicated, so it is not something that Chen Xie should care about. Master Chen's fleet sometimes makes a cameo appearance in a transaction that has no capital, and he is embarrassed to stop others from doing business.

Chen Xie also extended an invitation to Britain, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain to send representatives to hold a peace conference in Mumbai. The purpose of the meeting is to ensure the safety of the Eastern Route, and everyone in Europe does not care. In Asia, there must be peace. This initiative has been echoed by other countries other than the Netherlands, and the Netherlands has no choice but to pinch its nose and say that it will participate in this meeting, but it will report back to China. Anyway, it's dragging, Chen Xie knows it in his heart. I don't want to debunk it. In fact, as long as they don't compete with Da Ming, it's okay to fight no matter how they fight. The key is still this Mughal dynasty. Relationship worries are not easy to get along with.

What about this Mughal dynasty, the historical data says that it is the descendants of the Timurid Empire established by the Turkic Mongols, but after changing the empire, it did not work, it was divided, and they could not stay in Central Asia anymore and moved to India. Year 1562. It was such a group of lost dogs, after entering the Indian range, who destroyed a Delhi sultanate and established this dynasty.

Well, they are descendants of the Mongols. There should be hatred for Daming. The question is, how deep is this hatred, or perhaps these descendants have long forgotten the so-called hatred. Now the king of the Mughal dynasty is called Shah and Jahan, and the Taj Mahal was built by him. And when his son grew up, he got him down. is probably such a guy who loves his wife more, and he is also a reckless emperor. India still seems to be a unified empire, and it is difficult for the colonizers to make any moves with their meager strength. The empire was thriving, and the other colonists could only trade peacefully and would not risk invasion.

Chen Xiecai didn't care so much, he first settled in Mumbai, and then slowly hoarded troops and materials, prepared for a year or two, and then fought and robbed. It doesn't matter how many people he has, just shoot the platoon and drive over. No matter if he is a faint monarch, a country with cold weapons will definitely not be particularly able to fight. Do these countries in Europe really not want to rob? No, it's because the whip can't reach it. Those small countries in the South Seas still make do with it, but big countries like India and Daming really don't have the courage to come indiscriminately. Later, the British colonized India, and that was because India itself had problems. It is worth mentioning that this Jahan defeated the Portuguese in Bengal. It is estimated that the Portuguese should not have many troops, so one or two thousand men is good.

When will the peace conference be held? This will have to wait for the representatives of various countries, and it will be almost next year. The next year was 1651, and the English made a "Navigation Ordinance" against the Dutch. Then they started to quarrel, and after they couldn't solve the conflict, they started fighting.

The scale of the naval battle between these two countries was the largest naval battle between sail warships of this era. Almost every naval battle, 20,000-30,000 sailors and 6,000-8,000 cannons were put into battle, and the number of battles is probably rare in history. It is said that in the 15 months from May 1652 to August 1653 alone, the two fleets fought as many battles as all the seas of the world combined.

It can be said that this is a contest between the two most powerful maritime countries today, and this contest can be fought. This is also the best time for Chen Xie's development. Build a port in Bombay, hoard military supplies, build a fleet, and wait until the Anglo-Dutch war is over, the British can put six or seven thousand cannons in Europe at every turn.

Daming is not close to India, but it can't stand Chen Xie's occupation of Temasek, Java, Sumatra, and the Strait of Malacca is simply under Chen Xie's control. With the supply points along the way, it brought great convenience to navigation and also provided the necessary conditions for the conquest of India and Burma.

The pioneer team landed in Mumbai and began to bring ashore a steady stream of supplies brought from the ship. The current port is said to be public, but in fact it is already the dominant navy of the Ming Dynasty. Chen Xie said hello casually and began to order construction and expand the wharf. The fleet that unloaded the supplies immediately turned around and returned to the city of Khinghai to transport more supplies to Mumbai.

Chen Xie did not stay here for long, sitting here is the new general Li Guoxing, he belongs to the second generation of the Dengzhou battalion, after a period of Liukou war, after coming to Nanyang, because of his outstanding appearance, he was promoted and appointed for many military achievements, and he is only 38 years old, and he is the representative of the young generals in the Xinghai Navy.

Li Guoxing was here, first of all, to build all kinds of necessary buildings, and secondly, to train the army and wait for subsequent reinforcements. Korean and Japanese merchant ships brought goods that were bought to the Europeans and immediately returned with a full load. It is expected that early next year, there will be a group of "pioneer teams" transported to Xinghai City. Chen Xie's plan was to have at least 20,000 troops, and then land in India and start robbing!

Chen Xie, who returned to Xinghai City, is not idle, the crusades in various places are still going on, and the navy still needs to start a new round of expansion, think about the Anglo-Dutch war, it is often the scene of more than 100 ships bombarding each other, Chen Xie's current naval strength can certainly crush a qiē in Asia, but what about leaving the scope of Asia? The world is huge, and once the British defeat the Dutch, they will inevitably want to conquer more places. Historically, the British have done just that, and have succeeded in becoming world hegemons.

With a force of 10,000 or 20,000 men, it is possible to conquer a great empire, that is, in India. Elsewhere, Chen Xie didn't think about it. Why? Because it's impossible. The Indians were almost killed, and it wasn't the effect of war, it was Nima smallpox, it was the Black Death.

Thanks to the vigorous development of Daming's shipbuilding industry, Chen Xie's shipbuilding business has advanced by leaps and bounds. The shipyards in Huating, Lushun, and Jiaozhou Bay can manufacture no less than 60 third-class warships and 10 second-class warships every year. Considering that the second-class battleships have the defects of long-distance voyages, they are now only manufactured in small quantities, and the main ones that resist the big flag are still the third-class warships, and the fourth-class battleships have gradually withdrawn from the main stage. Playing the navy is a very money-burning thing, this kind of warship has to be regularly maintained every year, and the cost here is gone.

There are a large number of docks in Xinghai City, but they are not used to build warships, but to maintain them. The fleet of the Ming Navy should actually be the Xing Navy Fleet now, or the Chen Navy. The main force of this navy in Daming is some old fourth-class warships, and the new warships are mainly concentrated in Xinghai City and Temasek.

By the end of 1650, Chen Xie's navy had 11 second-class warships, 108 third-class battleships, more than 80 fourth-class warships, more than 100 clippers, and no less than 100 transport ships. For such a large fleet, what is lacking is not ships, but enough manpower. The navy has grown from more than 20,000 people to more than 80,000 people. After building so many fleets, you will definitely have to go out to train and find people to fight.

In November, on the equator in the Pacific Ocean, there is no talk of winter. A legendary fairyland-like island appears in the sight of the Xinghai Navy's Eastward Expansion Task Force. Colonel Hu Yingqiang, the commander of the fleet, immediately took out the map from his pocket when he saw this island in the telescope, searched for it for a long time, and finally determined that he should have found a new island. After three months of wandering at sea, I finally paid off.

There were cheers from the flagship, and Hu Yingqiang went to wash his body with a little pitiful fresh water, changed into a clean military uniform, and after touching the people he packed up like dogs, he planned to "get along well" with the locals after landing.

Anthony, who landed in Australia, also got along well at first, but then he didn't leave, and whether he could get along well in the end, who knows? The colonists are a combination of a group of bastards and villains, within the scope of the Ming Dynasty, they are people, and out of this range, whether they are people or ghosts, God knows.
