"Your Majesty!" Bruce Van Diemen shook his head repeatedly, "You are wrong... When did our two countries go to Tianzhu to grab money? We went to help the people of Tianzhu!"

help?

Li Jicheng said sincerely: Are you helping the people of Tianzhu spend money? The people of Tianzhu have too much money and can't spend it all themselves, so do you want Dashun and the Netherlands to help spend some?

Bruce added: "The Ming Emperor Na Aurangzeb's daughter became a noble concubine, which shows that he has huge ambitions for the rich Tianzhu... His marriage to Princess Nisha of Tianzhu is very important.

It may become a bridge for him to invade Tianzhu. If Tianzhu falls into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, the whole world may be dominated by the Ming Dynasty.

When the time comes, your Majesty, will your Dashun country still be able to compete with the Ming Dynasty? If the Ming Dynasty's naval fleet gains a stronghold in Tianzhu, and if the Timur Empire of Tianzhu becomes a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, your army will still be able to freely enter and exit Tianzhu.

, to help the people there?”

Li Jicheng felt the seriousness of the problem!

His Dashun Kingdom has lost the Land of Abundance in Sichuan, and it is not known how long Yunnan can hold on to it. Only Myanmar seems more reliable.

But Myanmar is just a place where you can barely fill your belly. If you want to make a fortune, you have to rely on Tianzhu!

After plundering Tianzhu twice, Li Jicheng also figured out Tianzhu's strength... This place has weak soldiers and a lot of money!

Although the Timurid State is somewhat powerful, the Timurid State has a large territory and many enemies, so it is unable to concentrate its forces to defend the coastline of Bengal and Orissa in the east. Dashun wants to grab a handful and leave.

There are plenty of opportunities. As for Golconda, Coromandel (next to Windwind Fort), and Malabar in the south of Orissa Province, Dashun and the Dutch can enter and leave at will.

But once the Ming Dynasty formed an alliance with the Timurid Empire and sent its naval fleet to Bangladesh, would Dashun still have a good life?

I was suffocated to death in Sichuan and Yunnan, and I have to suffer it again in Myanmar?

"Mr. Fan is right!" Li Jicheng did not dare to take it lightly, and said quickly, "Um, Dashun really cannot let Can Ming and Tianzhu Timurid collude together... They are not good birds, so they collude together.

I will definitely eat all the people from Tianzhu!"

Bruce Van Diemen breathed out, turned to the French envoy Nicolas Fouquet, and said in French: "Mr. Ambassador, His Majesty the Emperor of the Dashun Empire said that like King Louis, he is very concerned about the well-being of the Indian people.

We do not want to see the evil and greedy Ming Empire and the brutal and brutal Timurid Empire collude to enslave the Indian people."

Nicolas Fouquet was once sent as an envoy to the Ming Dynasty by Bishop Mazarin, and spent a lot of time in the Ming Dynasty. During this period, he also learned a little Chinese, but he could not understand Shaanxi dialect... so he could only rely on this

Bruce Van Diemen is seriously talking nonsense.

But even if he could understand it, he was very happy to let Bruce Van Diemen act as the translator... The level of this translator was still very high, and it was also conducive to his mission.

Nicolas Fouquet did not want to stay in Kunming for too long, otherwise Colbert's conspiracy would succeed. After the death of Bishop Mazarin, the villain Jean-Baptiste Colbert began to

He was "maliciously slandered" as Mazarin's successor.

If Fouquet had not been "very familiar" with Eastern affairs and was a China expert in King Louis' mind, he might have been thrown into prison by King Louis!

But even if King Louis still had some use for Fouquet, his position was in jeopardy and he might be finished at any time.

Therefore, he must achieve something as soon as possible, and at the same time return to France and His Majesty the King as soon as possible...

"Your Majesty the Emperor!" Fouquet made a French-style bow to Li Jicheng, "King Louis hopes that the Dashun Empire can fight with France and the Netherlands to jointly stop the Ming Empire's invasion of Tianzhu, and put Tianzhu before us

Under the joint protection of the three countries."

His words were still translated by Bruce. Bruce turned to Li Jicheng and said: "Your Majesty, France is the largest in Europe now, but they are only strong on land. When they reach the sea, they have to rely on the Netherlands! But that King Louis has a brain

Fever, he thinks he is some kind of Catholic leader, some kind of Sun King. He wants to be the sun of Europe and lead European countries to resist the Ming Dynasty's westward expansion. That's why he wants to get involved in Tianzhu. In fact, he doesn't really want to fight against the Ming Dynasty. It's just that.

Earn some face. The benefits of Tianzhu should be shared equally between our two families."

How could Bruce, a profiteer, know that Louis XIV was competing with the Ming Dynasty for India from a strategic height!

This account is actually very easy to calculate. Now the world is almost divided into three major sectors, one is China, the other is Tianfang Sect, and the other is Christianity. Among them, China and Christianity are far away from each other and have equal strength. No one can touch the other's basic base. Can they do it?

The key is to develop yourself and contain your opponents!

Therefore, if we want to contain the other party and develop ourselves, we can only seize territory outside our respective bases.

There are two large pieces of territory that can be fought for, one is the New World, and the other is the Tianfang Sect's territory.

In the New World, Christianity temporarily gained the upper hand, but it expanded to its limit - this limit was determined by the population base of Europe. Compared with the vast New World, the population of Europe was too small, and the number of immigrants that could be exported every year was only

Quite limited. Therefore, it is difficult for them to completely occupy North and South America, and they are unable to prevent the Ming Empire from exporting population to the northwest of North America.

Therefore, in the New World, the Christian world, led by France, was actually on the strategic defensive.

In terms of competing for the territory of the Tianfang Sect civilization, Christianity now has no advantage over the Ming Dynasty. Because the Ming Dynasty has taken over the Strait of Malacca and opened up the sea route to the west. But on the Christian civilization side, they are facing an aggressive Tianfang religion.

Teach the powerful Ottoman Empire!

In the direction of Southern Europe, Christian civilization is still on the defensive, so it is impossible to go eastward through the Middle East to reach India, which is the richest and easiest to invade in the Tianfang religion. The only way is to make a big circle and go around Africa.

But once this circle goes around, the power that the Europeans can invest is limited. Even if France and the Netherlands join forces, they can invest several thousand troops in India. Facing Aurangzeb's two to three hundred thousand troops, several thousand troops

What can it be used for?

Aurangzeb's empire is still difficult to deal with!

In addition, even if Aurangzeb is defeated, he may still receive military aid from the Ottoman Empire... The Ottoman Empire is a powerful country that can suppress the Holy Roman Empire. It can rely on the European expeditionary force of several thousand to go around the Indian Ocean.

Defeat them? And European Christians have to consider the consequences of the combination of Indian money and Ottoman force!

Now Aurangzeb has also roped in the Ming Empire, the giant in East Asia!

After the news of the marriage between the Timur Empire and the Ming Empire in India spread to Europe, the Netherlands, Britain, and Portugal all felt great concern about their interests in India.

Of course, the dog-eat-dog fight between the three countries will not end with the marriage of the Ming Dynasty and the Timurid Empire.

Because the relationship between them and the Timur Empire is relatively complicated and their ambitions are different, it is difficult to say whether they are united or not.

Otherwise, the Dutch would not have used Dashun to seize the British colony of Fort St. George...

The British were very angry about the Dutch joining forces with Dashun to seize their territory, but the Franco-Dutch alliance did not dare to retaliate publicly, so they had to vent their anger on the Portuguese, who participated in the attack on Fort St. George.

For this reason, they seized several Portuguese islands on the western coast of India (Bombay).

The Portuguese, who had been bullied by the British, went to the French to complain and wanted to ask the European leader to come out and seek justice.

And Louis XIV was not stupid enough to fight with the British over Portugal, a weakling. Those Puritan lunatics are still very capable of fighting!

But he also wanted to show off as a European leader and wanted to use this opportunity to intervene in Indian affairs, so he came up with this idea of ​​uniting all parties to intervene in India, forcing the Timurid Empire to "open the market" and preventing the Ming Dynasty from intervening in Indian affairs.
