"What, the Spanish army has withdrawn to the north? The Marrakesh city has been demolished?" Marin was a little surprised to see the information sent by the spy sent to Spain by Kohler.
According to Marin's plan, Spain should play hide-and-seek with the remaining forces of the Vatas dynasty, and then spend a lot of money and food. In this way, even if Spain takes over the huge profits of India's spice trade, it will be spent in vain on the battlefield of Morocco.
However, Gonzalo de Cordoba, half of Marin's disciple (Marin once taught him the "Marin Phalanx", is half of his teacher), was so brave and willing to abandon southern Morocco, Stabilizing the northern region first surprised Marin. The most important thing is that Ferdinand II and Juan III actually agreed ...
"It seems that the Spaniards are not stupid ..."
Marin was a bit disappointed. He originally wanted to use the war in Morocco to consume Spanish national power. As a result, the Spaniards were willing to abandon the South and concentrate on the North first. This is difficult, because it is much less difficult to concentrate on northern Morocco, which is close to Spain.
Marin was a bit anxious. If Spain was allowed to eat the whole of Morocco, then the Spaniards could free their hands to do something else. If they once again set their sights on the Americas ... Marin's current naval strength is not enough to dominate the Americas ...
Fortunately, when he saw the last piece of information, Marin was happy ...
The last piece of information is that Spain ’s infamous Inquisition is anxious to control religious affairs in northern Morocco, occupied by Spanish troops ...
Who is the person in the Inquisition? That is a group of lunatics keen to persecute heretics. Let them go to Morocco to toss, it will only force those who are against God in Morocco. As long as this group of people is tossing around in northern Morocco, Moroccan Allahs will surely rise up to resist. When the time comes, it's definitely enough for Spain to drink a pot.
But Marin was still not enough, and decided to secretly shoot, let the gang of madmen in the Inquisition make things bigger, stimulate the Moroccans to the greatest extent, and arouse their resistance.
So Marin told Kohler:
"You sent a spy to bribe the priests of the Spanish Inquisition, which took over the religious affairs of Morocco, and urged them to confiscate the property of Moroccan Allahs who did not want to convert to Catholicism, and expel those people from Morocco or burn them directly!
Marin's idea was very shameful, and he did not worry that the priests of the Inquisition would not be hooked. Why? Because one of them "confiscates the property of pagans" will make the priests of the Spanish Inquisition rush.
Moreover, this is not the first time that the Spanish Inquisition has done this. For example, before in Spain, the Spanish Inquisition had confiscated the property of wealthy Jewish businessmen who did not want to convert to Catholicism. In 1492, 20 million Jews with wealth and technology were deported by the Spanish Inquisition. Of course, those Jewish properties were confiscated. In the end, many of those Jews were taken to Turkey by Turkish Sultan Baseyet II, and thus promoted the exhibition of Turkish printing and other technologies, and also promoted cultural progress.
Therefore, let the infamous Spanish Inquisition do this kind of deceitful action to seize the property of pagans, they are absolutely familiar. Even if Marin did not push secretly, they would do the same. However, after Marin secretly promoted, they may be more motivated.
However, it should be pointed out that the Arabs and Berbers in Morocco are not cowardly and timid Jews, but a group of fierce men who can ride horses and wield scimitars.
The Jews have been oppressed by Europeans for thousands of years, and have long been oppressed to lose their courage to resist. Moreover, the Jews screamed and fought in Europeans, and there were almost no supporters. If they wanted to resist, they would be defeated.
The Moroccan Arabs are different from the Berbers. They are already savage nomads who can ride horses and use scimitars to cut people.
If they were forced to seize all their property and were deported, they would definitely not give up. When the time comes, they will definitely rise up and die with the Spaniards. At that time, what Marin had to do was to send horses and scimitars to the unwilling Arabs and Berbers ...
However, Marin seems to be doing something wrong. So, Marin asked Kohler to repeat his old tricks, to find the Venetians and the French, and let them secretly support the Moroccans' resistance. Anyway, the two countries and the Spaniards have hatred, and they are certainly willing to trouble the Spaniards.
In addition, Marin will also remind the Venetians and the French to secretly fund the Watas dynasty. For example, providing money, food and weapons.
Because, Marin heard that the Spanish did not block the southern coast of Morocco. As long as the Venetians and the French secretly sent ships to the southern coast of Morocco and quietly provided money and weapons to the remnants of the Vatas dynasty, the Vatas dynasty could continue to be maintained.
Moreover, the weapons required by the Moroccan cavalry are simple, as long as they have scimitar and war horses, they can fight.
Even if the Spaniards wanted to block the southern coast of Morocco, it would be difficult to do so. After all, Spain in this era could not monitor the entire southern coast without satellites and radar.
Even with satellites and radars, smuggling in coastal areas is as rampant. After all, as long as sailing in the middle of the night, it is easy to avoid the blockade of the Spanish fleet.
France is the easiest to secretly support the Vatas dynasty, because France can directly and quietly send boats to the southern coast of Morocco through ports on the Atlantic coast. Unlike Venice, if you want to send a boat to the southern coast of Morocco, you need to pass through the Strait of Gibraltar controlled by the Spanish. It is very likely to be found. And French ships can travel on the wide Atlantic Ocean ~ www.novelhall.com ~ As long as you are careful, the possibility of being discovered is less ...
As long as the Watas dynasty can obtain outside support, it will not collapse due to the loss of its main financial source. In this way, they can persist longer and continue to trouble the Spaniards ...
...
After arranging these things, time has entered into November. At this time, it was already late autumn and early winter. In the northern hemisphere, there is basically no tropical storm. The greatest danger is probably the floating iceberg similar to that encountered by the Titanic.
However, as long as you do not recklessly sail at night and observe carefully at all times, the probability of an accident is not high. After all, floating icebergs are not as powerful as tropical storms and can be avoided.
Marin is now on a boat and can arrive in Panama at the end of the year. Then, take a boat across the Pacific from Panama City to the Ming Dynasty. From Panama to the west to the Ming Empire, because it was smooth and smooth, it could be reached in three months. And the time period is exactly in the spring. In the western Pacific, tropical storms such as typhoons are mainly from May to September. As long as the time comes, it can just avoid the typhoon season. As long as it is not a powerful storm like a typhoon, even a larger sea storm, Marin's 1o warships will certainly not sink. As long as the 1o warships have surplus, even if the warship that Marin rides is sunk, Marin can be rescued to another ship and escape the disaster ...
In this way, after preparing everything necessary for sailing, Marin took Dürer and his entourage and began to board the ship and headed to Cologne Bay in Panama. Then, board 6 there, and cross the isthmus of Panama, merge with the 1o warships waiting there, and then head to Daming. Calculating time, the fleet is almost coming to Panama City ...
