The weapon tycoon who traveled to Daqin

Outside Mengla Bay, a small boat is sailing slowly. There are three people on the boat, a rowing sailor, a second lieutenant officer, and a captain officer. The captain officer is Jingmen, who is lying on the bow of the boat using a telescope.

See what he can see.

"These damn Mengla people don't even have a defense line." Jingmen said while looking at the coastline. He didn't see any coastal defenses on the coastline, such as artillery positions, infantry camps, etc. These were simply useless.

No.

"Sir, can we launch an attack directly?" the second lieutenant on the side asked.

"No, we still need to wait. We need artillery. We don't have artillery support. If the opponent rushes over with a large number of people at once, although we can resist it for a while, if there are too many people, there will be a sea behind us and we will

There is a possibility of being driven into the sea, damn Chu merchants, they didn't hold on, it would be great if they could have a good bridgehead." Jingmen put down the telescope in his hand and rubbed his eyes.

"Sir, it's best for us to wait for support at the moment. Only with artillery support can we do bigger things." The second lieutenant said while looking at the Mengla coast in the distance.

"Hmm. Wait a moment, our people need to recover. Only when we recover our strength can we take action. But these Mengla people are really bold. They don't even build fortifications. There is not even a person on the shore. Really

Don’t know what they are doing?” Jingmen said, looking at the Mengla coast in the distance in confusion.

In fact, the Mengla people did not build any fortifications. In their view, everything they did was an accident. They accidentally attacked the Korean trade area and at the same time accidentally attacked the Chu people's trade area. Their

The original intention was to scare the Koreans and Chu people, but as a result, their army actually invaded two trading areas, which was far beyond their expectation. In addition to these, there are more things. After the attack, they chose

In order to avoid, rather than actively defend, they themselves also know very well that the Chu people and the Koreans have artillery, and they can bombard their coastlines back and forth. They simply cannot defend there, and no one wants to defend it.

.Many people are here to take advantage. They are not willing to fight at all. This is something that all of them know clearly.

On Tolan Island. Huang Jian is meeting a special guest.

"What you have done is extremely excessive. Are you asking us to calm down the fire? Is this possible?" Huang Jian said to a Mengla envoy in great annoyance.

The messenger's name is A Luo. The full name is too long and I can't remember it at all. I can only remember the simplified name. This is a common problem among Chu people and all Central Plains countries.

"We are very sorry for such a thing. It was all an accident, an accident. We just made you feel a little pressure and did not have too much malice. Really, my friends, please believe in our sincerity."

Aro said with his arms folded in an apologetic gesture.

"I'm sorry. An apology can't solve the problem at all. Our country is already very angry, and the army is here. You tell them, we can't control this." Huang Jian said angrily. But everything Huang Jian was pretending

came out. In fact, the losses of the Chu people were much smaller than those of the Koreans, and the Chu people were all businessmen. They were unwilling to give up such trade opportunities. They hoped to continue trade because it was more beneficial to them.

"We understand this very well. Our king has severely criticized our officers, and they already know they were wrong. We can give you a certain amount of compensation. We can expand the land. We will not harass your trade area.

But I hope you can continue to provide us with enough arms, after all, we need those things." Arrow said.

"Oh. It's not possible. We have already lost a lot. If we do business with you if we attack like this, who knows whether our lives will be safe. If we don't have lives, wealth will be good to us.

No, this is what we need now." Huang Jian said.

"Well, I think, my friend, this is not very good. Peace is a very friendly thing for us and is beneficial to both of us." A Luo still persuaded.

"We also hope for peace, but how to ensure our peace? We need to garrison troops and a larger trade area, and you need to provide a certain amount of compensation so that we can recruit more soldiers to protect ourselves. Otherwise,

There is no peace between us." Huang Jian simply explained his peace conditions, garrison troops, expand the control area, and at the same time need the other party to provide compensation to recruit local people to become soldiers to protect their safety.

"We need to think about this. We can only provide a certain amount of compensation. We are unlikely to agree to such a thing as garrisoning troops." A Luo shook his head and said.

"This is already our bottom line. If we can't do it, there is no other way." Huang Jian shook his head and said. This is the first contact between the two sides, but both sides have their own bottom line. Mengla people

Knowing that they can't afford to offend the Chu people, and the Chu people don't want to expand further, as for the Koreans, they seem to prefer the intensification of conflicts, which leads to a larger war. In the war, they gain greater benefits.

.

The west coast of India. Today's Mumbai area, but this is not a large city port.

"Just dock here. There are several small islands here, and it looks like a good port. It would be very beneficial to build a city here, especially a city harbor for trade." Song Ge said while holding a telescope.

"Sir, there are some villages on the shore. Should we launch an attack to attack them?" asked the first mate Archie.

"No, no, we don't want to attack. We should make friends with them as much as possible. We don't know anything when we come here. We don't want to be driven out by the other side like last time." Song Ge said. The last time the Chang Ge docked

area, because his men were too absolute in doing things, which directly caused them a lot of losses. Their supplies had not been replenished, and there was still a lot of lack of fresh water, but his men killed the locals. The locals united quickly and violently.

Launched a counterattack, fortunately they were alert very quickly, and their firearms were sharp. After fighting with each other, they immediately broke away from the battle and left there. They came here to explore and do business, and fighting was not what they wanted.

After all, firearms require considerable financial resources.

"Yes, Captain, I understand. I will control my men." Archie said.

"Well. Very good. We need to understand all the local conditions. This is very beneficial to us. After knowing these places, we can do more things." Song Ge said.

In fact, Song Ge didn't know whether the locals were friendly or not. Just like last time, they would definitely be attacked. Moreover, not all locals were friendly, and some were hostile and angry towards them. In this regard, he knew how to break away.

area, after all, he is not here to fight.

Soon the Changge released the boat and landed. After waiting for noon, good news came from the shore. The locals seemed to be very interested in these people coming from the sea and expressed a warm welcome.

, Song Ge then let the Chang Ge approach.

"Who are they? What is the name of this place?" Song Ge asked Archie immediately after landing.

"I'm sorry, sir, their language is very difficult to understand. The language we know has no effect on them. It seems to be another language. They keep calling Mahala or something. The language is too long and I can't understand it at all.

I understand." Archie shook his head and said helplessly.

"Okay, that's it." Song Ge said helplessly. Along the way, there were many such situations. They always named areas according to the names of local people. Such naming has local characteristics, but the language barrier still persists.

It's a big problem. They can only judge based on the other person's expression, gestures, or happiness and anger.

"Captain, what's the name of this place?" asked Archie, the first mate.

"Let's call it Mahala. It's simpler. If it's too long, we won't be able to name it at all. We can only use this name." Song Ge said.

"The name Mahala is a bit difficult to understand," Archie said. He thought such a name was very unpleasant. There was nothing he could do about it. The locals said so, and their language was incomprehensible at all.

The land is still not completely unified, or unified in the true sense. Although the Mauryan Dynasty conquered India for the first time, there are still many problems, such as language and the army. The local area still relies on the city-state lord to maintain local order. The Mauryan Dynasty in the north

We encountered a big problem. The Yuezhi people continued to harass and move south, which led to less and less control over this place. For example, Mengla was an example. But the Central Plains countries didn’t know this at all, because they had just learned about this place.

, they are already doing what they did hundreds of years later.

"Is there any specialty here?" Song Ge then asked. Song Ge needs to record and write it down. If he doesn't do this, it will be impossible to judge what kind of places they have been, and the official needs this information too much.

"Yes, these are it." Archie said and took two pieces of cloth.

"This is cotton, as they say, it is very comfortable to wear, and this linen is also lightweight. The weather here is very hot, so this kind of thing is of great benefit to us." Archie said.

"Oh." Song Ge just looked at it and then recorded it. He didn't seem to be interested in such things because he felt that such things were too common.
