Chapter 1115： "Lisbon Treaty" and the change of Malacca 6

The establishment of the Sixth Army was to assist the First Army in defending Durich. Now that there are officers and soldiers, the formation is very smooth.

However, considering that when necessary, the Sixth Army needed to guard Aurich alone. Because the first legion may have to go south to rescue the second legion or east to rescue the third legion. Therefore, Marin was a little uneasy.

After all, in the city of Aurich, he has the biggest concern in the world. The main force of the Sixth Army is the Scottish descendants, and Marin does not trust them. If the Sixth Legion was mutinous while keeping the city alone, his dear Angela and his son Caesar would be out of luck.

After thinking over and over again, Marin made adjustments to the formation plan of the Sixth Legion, but the one who assisted the First Legion to guard Aurich became the Second Legion originally stationed in the Ruhr area. The Sixth Army Corps exchanged with the Second Army Corps and was stationed in the Ruhr area.

Marin thought about it. Although the Ruhr area is important, before he promoted the coal briquette and steam engine, the importance of the Ruhr area could not be seen by everyone. Therefore, there is no need to send elite troops like the Second Army. New recruits such as the Sixth Army are adequate to defend the Ruhr area.

Moreover, the Sixth Army is not an army composed entirely of recruits. After adjustment, the soldiers of the Sixth Legion consisted of 7,000 Scottish descendants and 3,000 North Sea veterans. In addition, the middle-level officers are all skilled and old-fashioned officers, and the combat effectiveness of this army is not low.

The only worry is that the Seven Thousand Scotsmen of the Sixth Legion will be muted and demand to return to their homeland of Scotland. Therefore, Marin did not put them in Duori, nor did they change them to Schleswig. Because, these two places are very close to the sea. Once the Scottish soldiers mutiny, they can quickly hit the beach and take a boat to escape to their hometown.

After switching them to the Ruhr area, they had no chance to take the ship back home. Although there are no shortage of ships on the Rhine, those ships are basically inland boats, which are not enough to sail on the North Sea. Therefore, the placement of the Sixth Army in the Ruhr area helps to reassure those Scottish descendants. This was only early days, until these Scottish descendants were used to the rules and training of the Sixth Army. At that time, with such a large amount of training every day, they have nothing to think about.

And Duoriich has two of the most powerful legions, the First Legion and the Second Legion, and Marin can safely leave to the Ming Dynasty.

...

But before leaving, Malinte took a 6-way trip to Lisbon, Portugal, and signed a "Lisbon Treaty" with King Manuel I of Portugal.

This "Lisbon Treaty" mainly stipulates the issue of the ownership of Dongfan Island in detail. Marin will use Dongfan Island as a springboard to communicate with the Ming Dynasty.

However, he was worried that Portugal would later make trouble on the grounds that “Dongfan Island belongs to the Ming Dynasty and should be returned to Portugal”. Therefore, he ran a trip to Lisbon in advance, and agreed with Manuel I on the ownership of Dongfan Island, leaving evidence in black and white. In this way, the Portuguese will not be able to say anything.

The reason for this is mainly because the previous treaty signed in Rome stipulated that the Ming Dynasty was the Portuguese colonial sphere of influence. At present, Dongfan Island is not under the jurisdiction of Daming. In the future, if Marin allows Dongfan Island to join Daming, it may cause diplomatic disputes. So Marin would sign such an agreement with the Portuguese before going out, blocking the Portuguese's mouth.

In order to show sincerity, Marin also produced a rough map of the Ming Dynasty and a navigation route map in exchange.

In fact, at the beginning of last year, the Portuguese stole the nautical charts from Columbus and Conte and sent the ship to Daming. Moreover, they also reported that there are huge reserves of tin mines near Kuala Lumpur in the Kingdom of Malacca ...

The Portuguese did not know that Marin had deliberately let them leak to Portugal, and thought they had stolen Tianda's secrets. Moreover, in terms of interests, if Portugal seizes Malacca, it is indeed very profitable.

Therefore, Marin asked to sign the contract, and Manuel I agreed very well. After all, he was guilty of thieves and thought how cheap Marlin was.

Calculating the time, the Portuguese team sent to Daming should return. I just do n’t know how much profit this time. Manuel I was full of longing for profiteering ...

However, Manuel I did not know that his fleet did arrive in Malacca and also went to Guangzhou. It is a pity that the Portuguese had a bad mind, and at the beginning they planned to invade and conquer. Therefore, the fleet sent this time suffered a great loss ...

...

Things have to start with the batch of guns that Malin gave to the Kingdom of Malacca ...

At the beginning, Columbus was instructed to send a group of matchlock guns and Frang guns to the Kingdom of Malacca. Although Columbus was half embezzled, the other half also had 1oo matchlocks and 1o Francon cannons.

The Portuguese sent a total of 1o warships. After arriving in India, they first merged with the West-Portuguese United Fleet.

Then, the special envoy of Manuel I heard that there is indeed a Malacca kingdom in the southeast of India. Moreover, it is said that a large tin mine has appeared in the Kingdom of Malacca recently ...

All this is completely consistent with what Kong Tai said. Therefore, the Portuguese King's Special Envoy Ricardo decisively ordered the 12 battleships of the West Portuguese League and the fleet to follow him to conquer the Kingdom of Malacca ...

In this way, 22 Portuguese battleships, loaded with more than 2,000 Portuguese sailors, came to the port outside of Malacca city and indiscriminately attacked.

...

At the beginning, the Malacca Kingdom was indeed in chaos, and the Malacca people in the city were in chaos. If the Portuguese sailors took the opportunity to attack the city immediately, they might have succeeded in a sneak attack.

It is a pity that because the Portuguese had no idea, they first saturated and shelled the Malacca city pool, but did not immediately let the sailors rush into the city. After all, they have inquired in India, but the Malacca Kingdom has more than 30,000 soldiers ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Such a large scale makes the Portuguese feel a little soft after listening. Therefore, they plan to shell first to defeat the will of the Malacca people.

...

In fact, when they started shelling, the Malacca people did get into chaos, and even trample accidents occurred in the city.

However, the Portuguese bombarded for a long time, and did not send sailors to attack the ground. Finally, the Malacca people in the city were relieved ...

At this time, the originally panicked Malacca Sultan Mahmud suddenly thought of it as a gun? I also have ...

Then, a Shenji camp trained outside the city (imitating the name of the Ming Dynasty) was transferred back to the city and climbed up to the city wall ...

When the matchlock gunners and gunners of the Malachite Divine Battalion were deployed to the wall facing the port, the Portuguese sailors finally launched a ground attack.

But this time it was really not the time for the Portuguese to come. The 1oo Musketeer at the Divine Machine Battalion in Malacca, relying on the city wall, caused a lot of casualties to the charged Portuguese. However, the proportion of musketeers in Portuguese sailors is relatively low, only more than 300.

If the field game, the Portuguese sailors with more musketeers will definitely have an advantage. But now they are the siege party, and the Malacca Divine Machine Battalion is the garrison party ... Then, the Portuguese lost money ...

After dropping 400 corpses, the Portuguese retreated in embarrassment. It was not until midnight that he dared to send someone to quietly collect corpses for his comrades ...

So, this time the Portuguese attack was a failure ...

...

If the Portuguese fleet returns, let Manuel I know that because Malin sent guns to the Kingdom of Malacca, resulting in the defeat of Portugal and the death of hundreds of people, maybe Manuel I will be detained in anger. Marin ...
