In the thirtieth year of Hongwu, the Majapahit country on the island of Java sent troops to attack the glorious time in history, and now the three Buddha Qi countries in the twilight mountains are lost for a time, the people fled, and the national capital was soon breached.

During the crisis, more than 1,000 Han Chinese living in the local old port supported Liang Daoming, a native of Nanhai, Guangdong, as the king of the Three Buddhas.

Liang Daoming has the courage to understand the art of war, organized the Han people to lead the local people to resist the invaders, and successively sent ships back to China to recruit villagers, at that time it was the moment when the battle of Jingjing was in the ascendant, after hearing the news, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians crossed the sea from Guangdong, and finally successfully resisted the Majapahit country, and established a new Srivijaya country centered on the old port.

In the sixth year of Hongxi, Xu Hao led 300 warships of all kinds to set sail from Cam Ranh Bay to the old port smoothly, searching for the pirate Chen Zuyi on the way to no avail.

On the pier with gongs and drums, tens of thousands of people crowded the road, vying to see the mighty fleet sent by the imperial court. The officers and men of the sailing division on the side of the ships wore red naval uniforms with upright workmanship and waved to the people.

The Han people were all proud and excited to see it, and in this era, China was undoubtedly the world's most powerful country, and it also had the suzerainty in Nanyang.

Fifty-year-old Liang Daoming had already taken off his dragon robe, changed into a Ming civilian costume, and knelt on the dock with tears in his eyes and kowtowed to plead guilty.

Xu Hao stared at this city full of Chinese style, full of antique traditional style buildings, and strode out happily, supporting Liang Daoming with both hands.

Xu Hao Zhengse said: "The old man guards the Han people here to recuperate, and there is no fault. ”

Liang Daoming said excitedly: "The criminals are very frightened when they move overseas, and it is really a last resort to establish a country privately. ”

Xu Hao nodded and said: "When I came, the Holy Lord had already pardoned you and others, and issued a decree to give you a rich reward, and when the old man returned to the capital to meet the Holy Lord, he could return to his homeland with his family." ”

Liang Daoming was overjoyed. Thank you and say: "Thank you for Your Majesty's Longen, and thank you for the righteousness of the Governor." ”

Xu Hao sighed very emotionally, it is indeed much easier to communicate with each other than foreigners, and it is also because this is a regime established by the Han people, and the court unanimously believes that it must be nationalized, and Liang Daoming did not resist at all, which is both reasonable and somewhat surprising.

The same is true in history, Liang Daoming followed Zheng He back to the Central Plains, and Zhu Di appointed Liang Daoming's son-in-law Shi Jinqing as the ambassador of the old port of Sanpin, making the old port the most distant territory of the Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, the trip to the West was stopped. After Shi Jinqing's death, his son Shi Ji succeeded to the throne, and there was no record in the history books in the future.

The whole of Southeast Asia, including the Srivijaya State, successively established more than a dozen large and small Han states, because of the decline of the Ming Dynasty and the arrival of Western colonizers, all Han states were wiped out.

The old port is located on the southeast coast of Sumatra, and further up is the most important Strait of Malacca in the world.

At that time, Xu Hao once wanted to recruit Chen Zuyi. However, this person is used to being a pirate, and the six relatives do not recognize their ruthlessness, and repeatedly rob the merchant ships of the Three Buddhas and the Han people, and they are unruly and do not obey the call. After trying a few times, Xu Hao put Chen Zuyi on the death list.

Accompanied by Liang Daoming and the officials, he visited the city with great interest, and Xu Hao returned to the treasure ship to rest, and when he came, he ordered that his subordinates were strictly forbidden to harass the place. The soldiers were also allowed to disembark and move freely, and they were given a three-day holiday.

Baihua, who had been sent for three years, was already waiting in the cabin, smiling like a flower to accompany Xu Hao to dine together. Talk about the national distribution and political economy of Sumatra.

Today, Malacca's largest power is Majapahit, which rules the southern part of the Malay Peninsula, Borneo, most of Sumatra and Bali.

However, in recent years, a series of civil wars have broken out within the royal family for the throne, which has greatly weakened the national strength, and the reason why the Srivijaya country defeated the strong with the weak is an example, and now the feudal lords and hereditary chieftains along the coast of Java are all ready to move, and even the nearest lords from Sriwijaya have established themselves as kings.

The interior of Java is the traditional Sumatran country, which has always been invaded by Majapahit and the orphan country, a few years ago the king was killed by a poisoned arrow in battle, and the prince Suganla was young, and the princess ordered that if there were warriors who could avenge the king and defend the country of Sumatra, she was willing to marry him as a wife.

Speaking of this, Baihua smiled proudly: "That year, I was ordered by my son to visit Chen Zuyi's lair everywhere, and once I got lost and ran out of water, and got the help of an old fisherman. In order to repay him, his subordinates sent thirty of his men to carry muskets and kill the king of the orphaned country, but he didn't expect the princess to really keep her promise and marry an old fisherman, and the husband and wife are also very affectionate. ”

Xu Hao smiled: "Well done, keep talking." ”

Baihua saw that the most proud thing was praised by the boss lightly, and he couldn't help pouting angrily, and said: "The old king heard that the lord came with a fleet, and sent an envoy Ali to pay tribute, but according to the slave family, this country has been inherited for hundreds of years, and the nobles are poor and extravagant and cruel to the people, and they have been defeated year after year, and it has probably reached the point of twilight. ”

Xu Hao nodded slowly, when it comes to historical grievances, he has no good impression of Indonesia and Malaysia in later generations.

Baihua said: "Childe should pay attention to Bairi Missoula, this person was originally the prince of Palembang, the son-in-law of the king of Majapahit, because he offended the king was hunted down, fled to Temasek, the country of Temasek that Gongzi values the most, and was later dissatisfied by the king of Siam, the suzerainty of Temasek, sent troops to crusade, Bairi Missoula was defeated and settled in Manjapahita, and declared independence from Siam last year. ”

"Full thorns?" Xu Hao seems to have heard this term.

Baihua explained: "One of the people I admire the most in the local subordinates is Liang Daoming, and the other is Bairi Missoula. It's a pity that Liang Daoming is kind and has no ambitions, and the Han population is too small, unwilling to intermarry with the locals, and the Buddhism and Taoism he believes in are incompatible with the local beliefs. However, the Han people have always been courteous in the Nanyang countries, which is why the interest in doing business is far greater than the establishment of meritorious deeds.

And Bairi Missula is ambitious, as soon as the country is established, he sent an envoy to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute, if nothing else, the current Holy Lord will canonize him as the lord of the Manchurian Assassin Canada, so that the Ming Dynasty recognized, Siam will not be able to send troops to attack him again, and his subordinates think that it will take time. The nation of Manthorn Canada is sure to become a local powerhouse. ”

Xu Hao frowned and groaned, after listening to Baihua's introduction, it seemed that this place was in a period of alternation between the old and the new, the traditional powerhouses of Majapahit and Sumatra were gradually declining, and the emerging power Manjapahit was still in its infancy.

For many days, Xu Hao, accompanied by a hundred flowers, silently observed the local customs, among which the Javanese people were the most powerful and brutal, if they touched the top of the child's head, their father would not die.

The adult men were all armed with knives. In the event of a dispute, the government will swing a knife and slash at each other, and the Manjapahit government is also very happy to deal with this kind of dispute, regardless of the crime, regardless of the severity of the crime, and it is also a helpless strategy for the government to be unable to govern all the territories, and most areas are still in a relatively primitive chieftain slavery, far from forming the Malays, the main ethnic group of Malaysia in later generations.

Xu Hao remembers that the first place for Han Chinese to move to Nanyang was Siam and the Strait of Malacca, and the proportion of Chinese in Malaysia reached 24 percent in later generations.

I bought a few Javanese war knives, which were no less hard and sharp than the Damascus knives that now crisscross Central Asia. and the katana used by the Wakoku people, which is said to have been made from meteorites that fell from ancient times, and was hammered hundreds of times using the Persian smelting technique.

When he had nothing to do, the local chief invited Xu Hao to visit the Bamboo Gun Club on the popular island. A brutal game similar to gladiators.

Sitting on a high platform made of wood, Xu Hao endured the heat, four slave girls fanned him, and the table was full of fresh fruits. The Javanese men below who volunteered to fight shouted loudly and boasted of their prowess with one-man bamboo spears, and the faces of the people were painted with the colors of ghost paintings, and the onlookers watched excitedly.

Baihua pointed to the women in the distance with some disgust. said: "Most of the two families with grievances in order to avoid punishment and resolve the name of the conflict, stabbed each other to death to compensate their relatives for a gold coin, and the widow and the female slave will belong to the winner." ”

"I see." Xu Hao was interested and said, "Give me the gold coins." ”

Picking up a gold coin from the Middle East, Xu Hao looked at it over and over for a while, and the avatar was probably the Prophet Muhammad.

In general, Chinese merchant ships stopped at Malacca, trading in the countries of the island and in Siam Chenla, and the maritime trade in the entire Indian Ocean was almost monopolized by Islamic merchants, bringing with them not only gold and silver coins, but also Islam, which was extremely expansive.

Many locals have already converted to Islam, and it won't be long before the entire area will be completely greened, and Islamic cathedrals have begun to replace traditional Buddhist and Hindu temples.

Xu Hao is not afraid of Islam, and Confucian civilization is the most able to resist the influence of foreign religions, so of course vigilance is necessary. At this stage, Islam's inclusiveness is easy to attract people, and the seemingly amicable and affectionate but in fact the exclusivity is shocking, and if they do not convert, it is difficult for outsiders to gain a foothold in Islam, and many ethnic groups have been exterminated because of this.

Zheng He's Hui identity is undoubtedly the pass of the Nanyang envoys, and he has donated money to build many Islamic temples in the holy places, and at the same time he is deeply influenced by Confucian culture and the heyday of the Ming Dynasty.

How to deal with the Islamic world is the biggest problem in front of Xu Hao, the real currency unit of Nanyang is the copper coin, Xu Hao casually threw the gold coin below, causing people to rush up and scramble, and it became a mess.

After enjoying a cruel and bloody game, Xu Hao sent away more than 500 family members of Liang Daoming, Shi Jinqing and other major officials at the dock, and then summoned all the people to declare that the Three Buddhas officially became the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

The law was promulgated to exempt the agricultural tax for ten years, and after ten years, one-third of the output was collected, and the land was permanently owned by private individuals, and could be bought and sold at will, and a land tax was paid.

The rest of the laws are similar to those of the Central Plains, Xu Hao didn't pay much attention to it, unless the Ming Dynasty can maintain its national strength for a long time, otherwise sooner or later, the overseas territories will either become independent or be destroyed by foreigners, what he has to do is to lay the foundation.

At the same time, Liaodong was recruiting the Jurchens to cross the sea on a large scale, and Xu Hao planned to lead the Jurchens to this land of ten thousand islands, where the people were complex and barbaric.

There were also 20,000 musketeers in Liaodong, making Xu Hao's total strength reach 30,000, this number did not arouse the suspicion of the imperial court, after all, the number of Zheng He who went to the West was about 30,000, of course, it will inevitably cause a lot of dissatisfaction, but who made this the first time that the imperial court went to the West? If it is not so solemn, I am afraid that the civil and military officials will not agree.

Although Xu Hao's identity is too sensitive, it is not enough to provoke people to speculate, followed by dozens of officials led by Yao Guangxiao, and ten eunuchs around Zhu Gaochi, and Zheng He, who should come the most, is now exploring hard in North and South America, I hope God will bless him.

Three days later, Xu Hao sent an envoy to the old fisherman king of Sumatra, telling him that a radius of thousands of miles near the old port would become the territory of the Ming Dynasty. (To be continued......)
