Daming Military Empire

Chapter 161 Ah San is miserable
If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is the most incisive description of the relationship between countries. It can be said that backwardness is the greatest original sin of all colonized countries. It is because their weapons are more advanced than others.There has never been any reason to talk between countries. Big fists are reason, and everything else is false.

A country like the Mysore state kingdom has vast land and rich products, but it stays at the earliest stage of feudal society. It only knows slash-and-burn farming and does not know how to develop advanced weapons. It has entered the seventeenth century, and it still holds big knives and spears Fighting people and being colonized is only a matter of time.

Of course, they could have enjoyed more than 100 years of peace, and they would not be enslaved and exploited until the British and French troops set foot on this land, but who told the later generations of Asan to be too crazy, and made our Emperor Chongzheng treat them very Not happy, so their tragedy came ahead of schedule.

The [-] Portuguese troops with flintlock guns and howitzers against the [-] indigenous armed forces with broadswords and spears is a bit of a bully. This battle can be said to have ended before it even started.

Because the indigenous army of the Mysore state kingdom was sieved by the sudden shells and bullets before they were ready to assemble, the rest of the rest was to capture the captives. Damn, the rest of the indigenous army has completely lost the courage to resist. They all threw away their weapons in horror, knelt on the ground and obediently captured them.

There is no need to wonder why the battle is so easy. As I said earlier, the Spanish illiterate adventurer Pizarro defeated the 200 indigenous army of the Inca Empire with less than [-] people. If the Inca Empire is too far away, then the British East India Company behind For the Mughal Empire, the Eight-Power Allied Forces and the Qing Dynasty, an army of more than [-] people defeated an empire with a territory so large that it was terrifying. Therefore, an indigenous country like the Mysore Kingdom is really worthless.

After the battle, there was a problem that was a little embarrassing. Although a large area was overturned by a hail of bullets, there were still more than 1 people left. It was a pity that these prisoners were killed. They were all good labor, but they were eager to go. To capture the king of Tubang, the speed of taking these captives will definitely be ridiculously slow, and it will be troublesome to let them run away.

In the end, Shivela and Conded had to allocate part of their troops to deal with the problem of captives.Shivela and Conded continued to Mysore with 1 recruits and [-] cavalry to capture their king, while the [-] Musketeers under Conded returned to Goa with more than [-] captives. In general, slaves are also wealth, and it would be a pity to lose them.

As for the wounded lying on the ground, according to Shi Weila and Kong Dede's intention, they should all be killed, and it will be over once and for all, but Luo Siwei really can't accept it. He can't be kind to the enemy when facing each other. Now they have lost the ability to resist , but also to kill all the people, that is a massacre, he thinks it is really unnecessary.

It doesn't matter to Shivela and Kong Dede, it's okay to let them go, and there is no threat if they are not injured. Now that they are injured, there is nothing to worry about. In the end, they simply leave it alone and let them fend for themselves.

The king of the Mysore state kingdom is also naive. He thinks that these colonists are the same as the Mughal Empire. He was defeated only to make him pay tribute. As long as he pays a part of his income every year, it will not deprive him of the kingdom. of dominion.Therefore, when he heard that the front was defeated, he did not abandon the city and run away. Instead, he led all the senior officials to wait outside the city gate for the arrival of the envoy from the upper kingdom!

According to his thinking, anyway, Mysore was originally a vassal state of the Mughal Empire, and now it’s just a change of suzerain state. It’s no big deal. If you soften in front of the envoys of the previous state and say a few good words, he will still be his king.

Is this king still so easy to be?When Kundede and Shivira saw the king of the kingdom of Mysore waiting outside the city, the greed and desire in their eyes were horrifying. Fortunately, the king and all the ministers bowed their heads, Did not see the frightening light in their eyes.

Shivira and Kong Dede are naturally familiar with this kind of thing. Isn't it just to deceive the ignorant natives?

The greed and desire in their eyes did not last long, and soon they put on a sympathetic face, declaring the glory of the Lord, how merciful the Lord is, he sees you poor and backward, and you are bullied by the Mughal Empire , I really couldn't bear it, so I specially sent us to rescue you!
Fortunately, they brought the aboriginal translators, otherwise their speech would be wasted, so were the aboriginals moved?

Although the king of the kingdom of Mysore is naive, he is not an idiot. Isn’t he just acting?He admired his own wisdom a little now, as expected, he changed the soup instead of the medicine, the envoys of Portugal were much more polite than the envoys of the Mughal Empire, so he had to accompany them to perform their tricks well.

So when the native translator finished their speech, the king immediately made a gesture of gratitude and sincerely invited them to the palace to have a sumptuous dinner to show his gratitude.

We must go to the palace. As for dinner, there is no rush. Let's check the safety hazards first.

Can the hundreds of guards on the city wall stop the army of the Mughal Empire?Get them all down and put on our army, we'll protect you.What can the King of Tubang say, since you are worried, just change it, and I will change it back after you leave.

The next thing may be a little uncivilized, so Shivera deliberately pulled Luo Siwei aside and begged: "General Luo, look, Kong Dede and I are going to their palace to take over the entire kingdom. Can you protect the defense of this city wall?" Help us make arrangements, this time thanks to the help of General Luo, we were able to successfully take over the kingdom of Mysore, and when the affairs of the palace are finished, we will definitely thank General Luo."

Luo Siwei didn't know what nasty things they were going to do, and it would be fine to help arrange the city defense, so he agreed without hesitation, and he didn't expect anything in return.

After dismissing Luo Siwei, Shi Weila and Kong Dede followed the Tubang king and a group of high-ranking officials to the palace.

The Tubang king didn't know that a disaster was about to come, and he enthusiastically led the way. Once they arrived at the palace, Kong Dede and Shivira continued to deceive: "If there are spies from the Mughal Empire among the guards in the palace, you It’s dangerous, change them too, just leave the maids and concubines, we guarantee your safety. And these ministers have worked hard all the way, let them go back and rest.”

The king of Tubang feels that something is wrong. The city defense has been handed over to you. What do you have to worry about? This palace is where I live. Will I be safe if I replace it with your people?And these ministers are all here to accompany you for dinner. Could it be that this king is asked to accompany you alone?
Seeing his hesitant expression, the smiles on the faces of Conded and Shivela slowly disappeared. With a wink, all the soldiers slowly raised their muskets, as if they would shoot if they disagreed.

Facing the black hole of the muzzle, the Tubang king succumbed. He ordered the removal of all the palace guards, replaced them with the troops of Conded and Shivira, and sent all the ministers away.

Seeing the cooperation of the Tubang king, the smiles returned to the faces of Kong Dede and Shivira. The palace and the city were occupied, and it was time to get down to business.

Kong Dede and Shivira hijacked the Tubang king into the palace. With one order, their soldiers immediately changed from polite gentlemen to vicious robbers. It's money, all of which are stolen; all antiques and treasures, statues and utensils, as long as they look valuable, all of them are swept away;

Hearing the noise of rummaging through the boxes and the screams of the maids and concubines, the Tubang king's eyes were tearing apart. Only now did he understand that these people were not envoys from the kingdom at all, but robbers who plundered everywhere!
Kong Dede and Shivira stopped pretending to be gentlemen, and Kong Dede spoke first (intermediate translation link omitted): "Do you still want to continue to be your king?"

The Tubang king came to his senses now, of course he wanted to continue to be the king, what would he do if he didn't become the king?It is estimated that there is no need to do anything, just drag it out and chop it up!He quickly said, "I think, I think."

Kong Dede said nakedly: "If you want to continue to be a king, you must listen to us and do whatever you are told."

The king of Tubang was already frightened. He heard the words and said tremblingly: "Okay, okay, I will do whatever you ask me to do."

Shivela couldn't wait any longer, he asked directly: "Where is the map? Where is the map of your Mysore kingdom?"

King Tubang quickly replied: "In the study, in the study where I handle government affairs."

Shivela couldn't wait to say: "Take us to your study."

Naturally, the king of Tubang didn't dare to resist, and hurriedly led them to the study.

At this time, the entire palace had been ruined beyond recognition, with smashed doors and windows and scattered clothes everywhere, rough panting sounds and shrill screams everywhere.

On the surface, the Tubang king was leading the way honestly, but he was gnashing his teeth and cursing in his heart: "You robbers, when the army of the Mughal Empire comes, I will definitely smash your corpses to pieces!"

I don't know when the army of the Mughal Empire will come, anyway, now he can only be mermaid.Now he had to honestly bring the two bandit chiefs to the messy study room, found a barely complete map, and handed it to them.

Shivela spread the map directly on the table, and then asked viciously: "I heard that you have a lot of gold mines here, where are they?"

The king of Tubang quickly stepped forward and pointed out a few places tremblingly, and Shivira was very happy. His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire really didn't lie to me. So many gold mines are developed, developed!
When Kong Dede saw that the gold mine had been asked, he felt that it was almost done, so he put away the map and went to eat, but Shivela continued to ask: "And the iron mine, where is the iron mine?"

King Tubang was dumbfounded. You gang of robbers are so poor and crazy. You are also robbing iron ore. How much is that thing worth? Besides, there are too many iron ore here. How can you tell me?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shivirala pulled it down directly, looking like he was about to explode.

King Tubang quickly explained: "There are too many iron mines, they are everywhere, I can't point them out!"

Hearing this, Shivela finally felt relieved, as much as possible, if he didn't have him, he would have to spend money everywhere to buy it, which would be very troublesome.

The next day, the Kingdom of Mysore State issued an order: "All civilians in Mysore must pay one hundred catties of iron ore every month, or they will be arrested and go to mine!"

Faced with such a strange order, the civilians in the entire kingdom were stunned. The king is not crazy. Why do you want so many worthless iron ore? Telling them to grab and mine is no joke.As for the gold mines, there were naturally captives to dig, and those people were all strong and strong, much more efficient than ordinary civilians.

Since then, the Mysore state kingdom has become a country where all the people mine. Hundreds of thousands of people, no matter men, women, old or young, have to work hard to mine everywhere. you go!

They don't know that such a miserable life of miners is entirely caused by their descendants being too arrogant, so they say, don't be too arrogant, otherwise, if people don't accept it, the sky will accept you.
