My Daming New Empire

Page 706

The territory of the original Tepanix country was divided into three parts and belonged to three countries respectively.The national treasury of Tepanix was also divided, with Tenochtitlan getting 40.00%, Descoko 40.00%, and Tlacopan 20.00%.

The alliance of these three countries will dominate the Valley of Mexico and expand to the coast for the next 100 years.During this period, Tenochtitlan gradually became the dominant force in the league.

But their prosperity was also the last glory of the Indians, because in the sixteenth century, that is, in 1529.The arrival of the Spaniards completely interrupted the development momentum of the Indians.

Central America at this time is a bit like China more than 1000 years ago. Tribal alliances were formed, but there was a suzerain country.

The ruler of China was the Zhou Dynasty. After the Zhou Dynasty's rule was ended, it entered the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.The leader of Central America is Tepanix, and now they are in the final stage of their rule.

Because this year is already 1421.

Influenced by Tepanix, the tribes here in Central America have experienced an era transition, which is the main reason why the major tribes in Central America have developed better than those in the north.

Although war will destroy some civilizations, it will also promote the development of society and the birth of new civilizations.

The better Tepanix developed, the faster the surrounding tribes imitated it.Many tribes in Mesoamerica are no longer patriarchal.And all classes are divided, and there is a ruling class.

However, because there are no wheels and no cars in America, everyone is still confined to one place.

Without the transportation and transshipment capabilities of vehicles, no matter how big the force is, it will be powerless to conquer far away.That's why tribes were formed, not a huge country.

The area where Yixin landed is the later Salina Cruz, which is also the narrowest, flattest, and most fertile area in Mexico.

Their goal is Veracruz, which is on the edge of the Gulf of Mexico. There is also a tribe recorded by "Magellan" with hieroglyphics, and it is suspected that the descendants of the Shang Dynasty gathered in the area.

However, as soon as they landed, they encountered the miasma here, and more than one tenth of the 6000 people fell ill.

Tropical rainforest areas are not so friendly to anyone who does not adapt to the climate here. Although they have made complete preparations and prepared various medicines, they can only be stationed temporarily when so many people fall ill. local area, and then dispatched personnel to investigate the surrounding situation.

In the original history, when the Spaniards arrived in Mexico, they were considered "white gods" by the local natives.

According to this logic, when the Ming people landed, they were not considered "Yellow Gods" and should be treated more friendly.

But it turns out that all this is nothing more than optimistic thinking.Because of the hot climate, the local natives are slightly darker than the Ming people, but they can still be seen as yellow people.

Because of this similar skin color, they lacked that kind of panic and respect.

And the fighting methods of the people in these rainforest areas are quite different from those in the north. They seldom fight with a large number of troops, and mainly rely on small groups of troops for sneak attacks.

The natives in the north use wooden sticks, stones, and spears in battle. Although stones and spears are also used here, they prefer to use various poisonous darts.

Because of the language barrier, those natives didn't have the fear they should have towards the Ming soldiers. Although they didn't dare to directly face the large and powerful soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, they used all kinds of traps and sneak attacks to make the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty miserable.

At this time, the soldiers from Habayashi Guard and the soldiers from the southern mountainous area played an important role. They used special operations methods to capture the sneak attacking men and horses one by one and searched for their lairs.

When one tribe was completely wiped out, and another tribe was completely wiped out, the local natives settled down and began to seek dialogue instead.

In Da Ming's plan, this section of the continental shelf, which is only [-] kilometers wide, will be an important base for Da Ming to occupy the entire Americas and connect the East and the West.

Although Panama in the south is narrower, it is too far away from the northern and southern civilizations and is not suitable for serving as a stronghold.

Yixin's task is to establish the ruling power of Daming in the local area, find evidence of the relationship between Daming and the local people, or simply directly create evidence of the connection between the local people and Daming.

In this way, after establishing a food supply base locally and opening up the connection between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, it then develops northward.

So after the other party began to seek dialogue, he did not retaliate, but actively contacted the major tribes.

The language barrier is the biggest obstacle between the two sides. It has been nearly a month since he landed, but he still hasn't established a real alliance with the tribes. They are still learning to speak the Ming dialect, and the Ming people are also actively learning each other's language.

However, an advance team of 2000 people has arrived at the Rabun Tower designated by Zhu Zhanji, looking for the temple he said.

And after getting in touch with the locals, the two leaders of the team, Mr. Chien from Habayashi Esaku, were very sure.Even if the people here don't understand their language, they should be inextricably linked with each other.

Because not only the skin color of the people here is similar to them, but also the pronunciation of the personal pronouns "I", "You", and "He" is almost the same as the pronunciation of the ancient Chinese pronouns.

They call "flower" also "fa", and the pronunciation is exactly the same as the northern accent in Ming Mandarin.

When they taught each other Daming Mandarin, these people also learned the fastest, because there are too many pronunciations, and there is not much difference from Daming people.

Yixin and the others worked hard to build trust, and established prestige among the local natives with medical skills and agriculture.

However, because of their different purposes, they can only develop slowly step by step.

On the Indian peninsula, the hottest August has passed, and Zhu Di officially opened the tide of attacking the Timurid country.

In the two months since he arrived in the Indian peninsula, he had already shown the small countries in the Indian peninsula the majesty of Ming Dynasty.

The nearly [-] cavalry, [-] infantry, and huge navy formed an army, which completely shocked many small countries with a population of less than [-].

The small countries quickly surrendered, especially the area south of the Kaveli River, including the small countries in the coastal area. They fell into the arms of Ming without the slightest hesitation.

But in the north of India, because of the threat of the Delhi Sultanate, many small countries still dare not completely surrender to Ming Dynasty.

This made Zhu Di make up his mind and decided to teach the Delhi Sultanate a lesson first, or simply overthrow their rule directly.

Conquering the Delhi Sultanate is actually as difficult as conquering the Timur Kingdom, because even if you go north from Surat, the coastal city closest to Delhi, the distance is almost two thousand miles.

However, the Delhi Sultanate and the Timur Kingdom corresponded head to toe. Since they wanted to deal with the Timur Kingdom, they would fight against rabbits, and they would not fight for nothing.

In fact, at this time, the Delhi Sultanate had no interest relationship with the Timur Kingdom.

The rulers of this country are forty families from the Timur Kingdom, most of them are Turks and Arabs, which is their closest relationship with the Timurid Kingdom.

But at the national level, the current rulers of the Delhi Sultanate are not willing to have an overlord on their head, and their relationship with the Timur Kingdom is mainly reflected in trade.

But for a country of many Hindu sects, the entire Delhi Sultanate occupies large tracts of fertile land in the Punjab, Central Province, and River Region.

They are powerful, deterring the surrounding small countries to surrender, and they are out-and-out villains.

Because of Zhu Di's change of mind, the marching route of the Eastern Expeditionary Army had to be changed again. Under Fu An's arrangement, this Eastern Route Army should go up the Indus River, which is later Pakistan, along the Indus River.

This route is the closest and flattest to the Khyber Pass.

Moreover, under the deterrence of Ming Dynasty, the small countries along the coast have raised a large amount of food and ships, allowing the Ming army to go north.

But now, all these plans have to be changed, because cavalry is the fastest way to conquer Delhi and the river is not smooth.

At the end of August, the [-] cavalry led by Marquis Zhang Xin of Longping and Lieutenant Mu Xin of the consort headed north by boat and arrived at Surat in the north of Mumbai.

In this era, of course, Mumbai did not exist. It was still a small coastal island with only a few small towns.

The real big ports are Kochi, Goa, the ancient port cities of Surat.

At the same time, a fleet composed of [-] Ming soldiers, [-] Indian soldiers, and [-] Indian laborers escorted food and gunpowder and went north along the Indus River to provide supplies for the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Five days after the departure of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, Zhu Dicai led the army and set off for Hormos in the north.

Along with the Ming Fleet, [-] laborers from various countries in India also contributed.
