1164 The sea is my Dutch world

No one can answer this question.

After all, in theory, the probability of such a coincidence is too low. Besides, war is not a joke, and it is impossible to rely on luck!

The people in the room were a little silent for a moment.

Suddenly, Putmans came to his senses, slapped his thighs, and repeatedly said: "The fall of the officers was not the regular attacks of the Ming army. Maybe it's really an insider!"

It was Putmans's regret that he had always been. He thought that the Ming army landed on the detour, and just happened to hit the army sent out. After being wiped out by him, he pretended to be the army, which made him lose his vigilance.

Now that Liu Xiang said this, he immediately remembered his biggest regret and immediately realized it.

The other two Dutch people looked at each other and finally frowned and thought about it.

Liu Xiang looked at the expressions of the three of them, and after waiting for a while, he spoke: "The court had already made plans for Nanyang, and it has been exposed. Today is Luzon, and it is hard to guarantee that Batavia will be tomorrow! For the sake of this, it is best to unite and deal with the court together, and cut off the claws that the court stretched over to ensure our territory! Everyone, what do you think?"

The Dutch people present were all cunning people. When they heard this, they looked at each other and immediately understood that Liu Xiang was the purpose.

Thinking of this, the Governor Batavia suddenly looked a little relaxed and said in a hurry: "This place is still far from Luzon! I want me to say, let's see the movement first?"

"Yes, maybe the Ming army will go back in a few days!" Putmans also echoed.

When Liu Xiang heard this, he became anxious and said quickly: "If the imperial army gained a foothold in Luzon, it would be difficult to drive them back! You... aren't you afraid. The Ming army took Luzon as its foundation and went south again to attack Batavia?"

"Haha, why are the Ming Kingdom coming to fight Batavia?" said the Governor of Batavia with a smile, "We have not massacred the Ming people! Look, we all treat Ming people preferentially, give them work, and pay them wages, right?"

Liu Xiang looked at them, each of them looked relaxed, and he suddenly became anxious. Just as he was about to persuade him again, he heard Putmans say: "Maybe, Mingguo will come to wipe out the pirates as before and go back!"

When Liu Xiang heard this, he was stunned at first, and then immediately understood that the Dutch were not stupid. Batavia was far away and he was close. The court had just occupied Luzon. If he really had bad intentions towards Nanyang, he would beat himself first if he wanted to fight. These Dutch people still have time to prepare.

In addition, there is indeed a possibility that the imperial army went south and could really be like before, to wipe out itself. However, after encountering the Ming people in Luzon halfway, they turned to Luzon.

Under the pressure of the imperial army alone, Liu Xiang naturally quit. Otherwise, he would not have come to Batavia. Therefore, he looked at Putmans and immediately responded: "You have done a lot of things along the coast of the Ming Dynasty. The court has wanted you for a long time! It is said that the emperor has issued a clear order and must arrest you! Maybe this time the imperial army went south, maybe they would come to hunt you down!"

Originally Putmans was watching Liu Xiang's joke, but he suddenly replied with such a reply and was stunned.

When he was a senior governor, he did things like Liu Xiang. He even formed an alliance with Liu Xiang and kept dealing with the Ming Kingdom. If the Ming army came to wipe out Liu Xiang, it was really possible that he would suffer as well.

At this time, the Dutch Admiral, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "If Ming really dares to declare war on me, Batavia, just come. I will teach Ming how to be a human being. If Zheng is not Zheng, he will tell him not to go back again when he comes!"

Speaking of this, his voice raised a little, and he said confidently: "The sea is my Dutch world!"

At this time, at sea, it was indeed an era when the Dutch dominated and was called the "sea coachman".

The Governor of Batavia stood up and said to Liu Xiang: "The situation is not clear yet, so let's do it first! You can't make a little noise in Mingguo, and we will be as if we are facing a great enemy! Haha, Batavia has strength and confidence. If the Ming army really dares to come so far, our sea fleet is not a vegetarian."

Hearing this, Liu Xiang became anxious and hurriedly said, "How many people are you in Nanyang? If the court wants to deal with you, it doesn't need the court to send troops. It just allows the coastal provinces to send troops. The number of people is many times that of yours! Your mother country is so far away, and there will be no reinforcements at that time. When the imperial army reaches its doorstep, it will be too late to regret it!"

Hearing this, Putmans had come to his senses and said, "Ming has not relied on many people, and its combat power is actually that way. But Batavia is so far away, how many troops can it send?"

He had dealt with the Ming army a lot, and he always fought with less and could escape far away if he couldn't win. Whether it was a ship or a cannon in the Ming Dynasty, he was not as familiar with this.

Thinking of this, he had a clear idea in his heart. He wanted to catch himself for the next life!

Liu Xiang was naturally unwilling to go for a vain and wanted to say it again, but the Governor of Batavia raised his hand and said, "Okay, I still have something to do, so I won't give it away!"

Anthony immediately stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go, the Governor is busy!"

When he was fighting with the Portuguese in Lion City, as the commander of the Dutch fleet, he naturally saw Liu Xiang's pirate group. Although there were many ships and many people, he looked down on him. As Putmans said, his combat power was just that.

At sea, it is not useful to have many boats and many people. He is confident that pirates like Liu Xiang can defeat as much as they come from the sea. Therefore, he has always looked down on this pirate in the East. Relying on the springboard battle with many people and many ships, it is outdated!

Liu Xiang was very unwilling to accept it, but he had already expelled the guests again and again, so he had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.

No one was there to send him away, only the Dutch guards followed him and supervised him to leave on a boat at the dock.

In the Governor's room, all three of them were there and did not part immediately. It was obvious that although they didn't seem to care at all in front of Liu Xiang, in fact, Ming was a huge country in the East after all, and its strength was not comparable to other countries. They still cared about Ming's new actions.

"What do you think about this matter?" asked Governor of Batavia with a serious face.

Putmans heard it and said slowly: "I think the most important thing about this matter is to see how much importance the Ming Kingdom attaches to Nanyang? According to the past situation, Ming Kingdom actually didn't care about foreign affairs. It was unprecedented to capture Luzon this time!"

Anthony is not a general who only knows how to fight. In fact, his initial identity was just a businessman. Therefore, calculating the gains and losses was actually engraved in his bones. He thought for a while and said, "Let the Eastern pirates block the situation first and then talk about it. Otherwise, once we need to prepare for war, it will inevitably affect our construction of Batavia."

In the original history, Batavia was finally built during his tenure as governor. It can be said that he has always been very concerned about the construction of this Dutch base in the East.

Kun nodded after hearing this and said, "Well, but Liu Xiang also needs to contact you all the time. If there is any movement, we can also know in time."

Speaking of this, he looked at his two colleagues and added: "He still has many people and ships under him. No matter what, it is useful for us to control the surrounding indigenous people. Not only that, the Ming people who built Batavia thanks to his efforts."

Among the Ming people in Batavia, a large part of them were brought by Kapitan. However, since Liu Xiang escaped to Nanyang, he also gave many Ming people. This made Batavia's construction progress much faster than expected.

Thinking of this, his brow frowned and looked at the other two people and said, "Among these Ming people, are there any Jinyiwei from Ming? We must be careful about this. If Ming really wants to deal with us, there will be no fire in the backyard!"

Hearing this, the other two nodded with a serious expression. Putmans thought about it carefully for a while and said, "According to the situation in Luzon that Liu Xiang mentioned, if there were those Jinyiwei lurking in Batavia, they would definitely not be the nameless person among the Ming people. Otherwise, Luzon would not have encouraged all the Ming people to stick to it, so that the Spaniards would have to mobilize most of the troops to suppress it!"

Hearing this, Kun and Anthony couldn't help but look at each other, and then said in unison: "Karbidan?"

These Dutch people did not dare to take risks, so they decided to monitor Kabitan. In addition, Batavia's construction progress should be accelerated!

While they were discussing possible wars, far away in the palace of the Tang Kingdom, the King of Tang was also discussing possible wars with his subordinates.

All signs show that the Mughal dynasty in the west seemed to have treated King Talong well. This means that Shah Jahan of the Mughal Empire was not friendly to the Ming Dynasty.

After listening to the story of the envoy fleeing back, the King of Tang said seriously to his civil servants and generals: "King Long will definitely not be willing to be prosperous in our Tang Kingdom. Can you have any countermeasures?"

Hearing this, Deng Kelu, the number one general under the Tang King, immediately clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, the last general has sent Yebuse, who has already sent Dongwu, to be in Bangladesh. If there is any situation, he will definitely return it in time."

For the Tang Kingdom, the biggest threat was naturally the Mughal Empire, a powerful country on the side. Although it was not as vast as the Ming Dynasty's territory, it was already the largest country here. Therefore, he had already prepared for the future.

When King Long ruled Dongwu, he naturally had political enemies and people who were persecuted by him. After the establishment of the Tang Kingdom, these people were a group of Dongwu people from the Ming Dynasty. Deng Kelu selected some soldiers for training and sent them out.

When the King of Tang heard this, he nodded in praise and said, "It's a good job, so I can feel much more at ease!"

As soon as the words were finished, another general, Fu Yuman, also followed the article and said: "Your Highness, the general of the Mogul Empire's army composition. The main force is cavalry, but most of them are cavalry in the north. There is not much use in this place with ravines in the south. Secondly, there are the combs and elephant soldiers, but these are not much threat to our Tang Dynasty. The flintlock battalion under the Mogul Empire is much more advanced than the combs. If the Mugul Empire's army dares to attack our Tang Dynasty, the flintlock battalion under the Mogul Empire is not a vegetarian!"

When the Flintlock Gun Camp made contributions in the Battle of Dongwu, the Battle of Baojing robbed King Talong's important food and grass, and the Flintlock Gun Camp made its first contribution. Based on the strength of this army, the King of Tang allocated it to Deng Kelu, making it the guardian capital Chang'an. Of course, this Chang'an does not refer to Chang'an in Guanzhong, but the original Ava and later Mandela, who have now been changed to the name of the King of Tang.

After hearing the words of the two generals, the Tang King finally felt much more relieved. However, for the sake of safety, he still discussed some details and was relieved. Of course, the Tang King was not sure whether the Mughal Empire would attack. Therefore, he did not inform Mr. Min of Mubang, nor did he report this to Emperor Chongzhen.

The facts proved that the King of Tang's concerns were not unreasonable. About ten days later, the sent out did not collect at night and then made an emergency return, saying that the Mughal Empire sent 5,000 troops, together with the 10,000 local troops in Bangladesh Province, claiming to be 100,000, and had already set out to attack the Tang State!

When the Tang King heard this news, he was still a little panicked when facing foreign attacks alone. At this time, the imperial army was not around. Although there were tens of thousands of troops in his hands, they could be distributed all over the country. In addition to protecting the capital, the troops could only be about 7,000.

But Deng Kelu and Fu Yuman were both excited. Only by fighting can they achieve military merits! As far as they knew, the army of the Mughal Empire could only be the king here. What's more, they had predicted the possibility of the Mughal Empire attacking the Tang Dynasty in advance, and the corresponding preparations were sufficient.

Among them, Fu Yuman even said to the King of Tang: "Your Highness, it is obvious that King Talong is unwilling to fail this time, and encouraged the Mughal Empire to send troops to invade. Since this is the case, they will definitely be able to make them come and go. And they can take advantage of the victory to pursue Bangladesh and take down Dhaka!"

Hearing this, King Tang was happy for a while, then hesitated and said, "Taking Dhaka is equivalent to taking down Bangladesh. In this way, it is equivalent to the full war of the Mughal Empire. Is this inappropriate?"
