Chapter 713, ceding land indemnity

"Pull them all down and kill them!"

After listening to their cries, Liu Jin nodded slightly, and then gave a cold order.

"Spare my life~Spare my life~"

As soon as those people heard this, they couldn't help but cry. However, it was of no use. The Ming soldiers were like wolves and tigers, and easily escorted them to a place. With a flash of swords, heads shot up into the sky.

And rise.

These people must be killed.

The Ming Dynasty has always been too kind to the outside world and cares too much about the so-called face, so these small countries in Southeast Asia dare to target the Ming Dynasty.

On the other hand, the Europeans are different. As long as you provoke them, they will fight back without mercy. Relying on strong ships and cannons, Westerners quickly occupied the entire earth.

The people of the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang have always had nowhere to express their sufferings and no place to cry. They are far away from the Ming Dynasty and have no one to support them. Even if they are bullied, they can only accept it.

This is true here in Luzon, it is true here in Malacca, and it is true in various places in Southeast Asia. They are like tough weeds, accepting the hardships and stubbornly taking root here.

But in this process, I am afraid only they themselves know how much blood and tears they shed.

Now that Liu Jin is here, he naturally has to make decisions for his own people, take revenge when there is grievance, take revenge when there is hatred, blood for blood, tooth for tooth.

"Cut~"

With the command, heads flew away one by one.

There are many people who bully the Ming Dynasty. Even though Malacca is a small country and they seem to have maintained a good relationship with the Ming Dynasty officially, they also bully the Ming Dynasty.

All the people in Malacca who had bullied the Ming Dynasty were found out? They were not interrogated or questioned, and they didn’t care what crime you committed. They were just beheaded.

The thick smell of blood spread in Malacca City. The killed people were piled up together, and the remaining people were even more frightened and their faces were pale. They were trembling, for fear of being pointed out by the Ming Dynasty and killed.

But Liu Jin was sitting on a chair? He looked carefully at Ma Mosha, holding a big head and wearing a white robe, which was similar to the attire of the Middle Eastern tycoons in later generations.

"Ma Mosha? Tell me? How do you know about this?"

"Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang all listens to the angel of heaven~"

Ma Mosha was frightened to death. He was already trembling. The Ming Dynasty was so cruel. Almost half of his ministers were killed? The rest were like frightened birds. Some were even frightened.

Peed my pants.

The knife has already been clamped to his neck? What choice does he have? Is this a man-made knife? I am a fish, so I can only listen to the other party? I will do it according to the other party's wishes.

"Very good? Very knowledgeable? This will save me a lot of trouble."

"This is a treaty. Take a look at it and sign it if you don't have any objections."

Liu Jin nodded with satisfaction, and Mingren brought over an agreement.

Mahmoud Shah took the agreement and read it carefully. It was clearly written in Chinese, Malay and Arabic.

Article 1: Because the Malacca Dynasty disrespected the Ming Dynasty, wantonly exploited the Ming Dynasty merchants, and oppressed the people of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty sent troops to attack Malacca. All the blame lies with the Malacca Dynasty.

Well, no matter what, I still have to stand on the moral high ground and hit you, and you have to say that the hit was right and good because I did something wrong and deserved the hit.

Article 2: Based on the mistakes made by the Malacca Dynasty, the Malacca Dynasty needs to compensate the merchants of the Ming Dynasty for five million taels of silver, compensate the people of the Ming Dynasty for their losses of two million taels, and compensate the Ming Dynasty for military expenditures of 10 million taels.

A total of seventeen million taels of silver.

Seeing this, Ma Mosha couldn't help but screamed: "Sir, even if you sell all of our Malacca dynasty, it won't sell for more than 17 million taels of silver."

He has dealings with merchants from the Ming Dynasty, and he also knows that a silver dollar here in the Ming Dynasty is one tael of silver. Although Malacca is located in a very good location, he can receive a lot of silver every year just from collecting tolls.

But this seventeen million taels of silver is simply an astronomical figure to them.

"If you really can't get it out, you can pay it in installments. The interest rate is very low, so you can pay it off slowly. In addition, you can also use various things to pay it back, such as wood, rice, rhinoceros horns, gold, silver, jewelry, and jade.

, emeralds, corals, and pearls are all fine. If you don’t have these things, your people can go work for our Ming people’s plantations to pay off the debt. Anyway, you have to pay for this money.”

Liu Jin smiled, knowing that you can't take it out. If you can take it out, why would I need such a high figure? I just want to force you to pay me back next year, and force you to rebel later and target me again.

Daming, when the time comes, I can directly destroy you.

For now, let’s occupy the north side of Malacca first.

"This~"

Ma Mosha was immediately dumbfounded. How could these Ming people be like this? The people of the Ming Dynasty in the past were polite gentlemen. Even if they were doing profitable business, they would look back on their face.

Mr. Liu Jin Liu in front of him completely ignored his face. He kept talking about money, and it seemed that he only had money in his eyes.

After thinking for a while, he continued reading.

Article 3: The Malacca Dynasty ceded the city of Malacca and all the territory of the Malay Peninsula north of the Malacca Strait to the Ming Dynasty.

"No way~ I will never accept this!"

Seeing this, Ma Mosha couldn't help but shake his head.

The Malacca dynasty was originally small, and its territory was divided into two parts by the Strait of Malacca. One half was on the Malay Peninsula in the north, connected to Siam, and the other half was on Jinzhou Island (Sumatra Island, called Jinzhou in the Ming Dynasty).

continent, because this island is rich in gold like Luzon).

Now if the northern half is ceded to the Ming Dynasty, then only half of the Malacca Dynasty will be left. On Jinzhou Island, the power of the Malacca Dynasty is actually very weak, and on Jinzhou Island, large and small

There are many countries, more than a dozen of them, and the competition is fierce. Among them, the most powerful Emirate of Aceh is very difficult to mess with.

"It's up to you. Anyway, our Ming Dynasty will decide on the north side of the Strait of Malacca. It doesn't matter whether you agree or not."

Liu Jin smiled and said nonchalantly.

To the north of the Strait of Malacca, the location here is very good. If you occupy this place, the Ming Dynasty will only need to build a few more cities on the basis of Malacca City to control the entire Strait of Malacca.

Relying on these colonial strongholds, you can deter Siam and Burma to the north, and form a pincer with Xianglin Province to trap Siam. You can further plot Jinzhou to the south. Jinzhou is a good place. Not only is it here

It is not only rich in gold, but more importantly, it is bounded by the Indian Ocean to the west, Bo Ni Island (later Kalimantan Island) to the east, and Java Island to the south.

Java has always been disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty, and dared to loot Ming Dynasty merchant ships and kill Ming Dynasty merchants. If there are several strongholds here, and a fleet stationed here, it will be enough to frighten the entire Southeast Asian countries.

When we deal with Java later, we can use Malacca City as a springboard to kill directly.

After Liu Jin planned to capture this place, he set up a new province here, called Zhenghe Province, specifically to commemorate Sanbao eunuch and his seven voyages to the West.

Relying on the Zhenghe Province and operating it well, plus the Nanyang Province in the east, Jiaozhi Province and Xianglin Province in the north, it is enough to control the entire southeastern peninsula and the Nanyang Islands.

After taking care of Siam, Liu Jin planned to go south to take care of the small countries on Java and Bo Ni Island. Then he would directly destroy Java and set up another province on Java Island and another province on Bo Ni Island.

In this way, the southern expedition is almost completed.

Ma Mosha looked at Liu Jin and fell silent immediately. There was no tone of discussion at all. The treaty must be signed whether it is signed or not.

Keep reading.

Article 4: Ming merchants have the right to trade freely with the Malacca Dynasty [interesting novel www.youquxiaoshuo.com], and the Malacca Dynasty has no right to tax Ming merchants.

This clause is not too extreme. It is nothing more than trade and no taxation. With the harsh treaties in front, it is nothing.

Article 5: In order to ensure the safety of the Ming people, all Malaccans, except for the descendants of the Ming people, must evacuate Malacca City, otherwise they will bear the consequences.

Seeing this, Ma Mosa immediately became completely silent. He originally imagined that he could continue to stay in Malacca City, but now it seems that everything has become a fantasy.

Not only could he no longer stay in his luxurious palace, but his subjects also had to evacuate Malacca City. This small city with a history of just over a hundred years would belong to the Ming Dynasty from now on.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel grief-stricken, feeling sorry for the efforts and management of the previous kings. Then when he looked at Liu Jin, his eyes were full of anger.

But soon, he loosened his clenched fists, thinking about the strength of his Malacca dynasty, and then thinking about the great strength of Ming Dynasty, he picked up the pen and started to sign the treaty.

No matter what, let's live first. Only by living can we have hope and revenge.

But think about the power of the Ming Dynasty again, and think about the fact that even Annan and Luzon were destroyed by the Ming Dynasty. How can our little Malacca dynasty defeat the Ming Dynasty?

To put it bluntly, the Ming Dynasty did not pay attention to Nanyang in the past. They thought it was too far away and had no value, so they had a place to survive.

But when the Ming Dynasty realized the value of Nanyang, and when the Ming Dynasty gradually expanded overseas, the good days of these small countries in Nanyang came to an end.

Seeing Ma Mosha's signature, Liu Jin immediately laughed.

"Malacca is lying down. This is land ceding and compensation, but it is still too small. There is no meat, and the money has to be paid in installments~"

"Next, I still have to go to Siam. This one has meat and a lot of money~"
