Chapter 957: Form an alliance to seek the moon
/
Zheng Chenggong is old, and he can't see the intentions of the Spanish envoy.
Naturally, he would not let the Spanish envoy delay time, and immediately stated that if the Spanish envoy did not agree with the Ming Dynasty's request, he would immediately head to another harbor.
The meaning is so clear that the Ming army has strength.
You Spanish colonists are better off being more sensible, so that everyone can talk about it.
If it is stubborn, it's easy to deal with it. Just fight it head-on.
With the strength of Zheng Chenggong now commanding this Ming army, not to mention a mere 10,000 or 20,000 Spanish, even if the 50,000 army is not necessarily an opponent of the Ming army.
What's more, the Ming army has now shown its momentum and is not afraid of any opponents at all when it is in full swing.
The strong side is so easy to gain an advantage in negotiations.
The Spanish envoy also knew that he could not drag it down any longer. In addition, the captured Jose kept beating and drumming at him, and the Spanish envoy finally gritted his teeth and agreed to Zheng Chenggong's request.
Anyway, it wasn't his money, and the harbor wasn't his, so what's wrong with him?
His Majesty the King saw it very clearly, and he was not worried about it.
Zheng Chenggong's pressure achieved such good results, which was something he had never expected.
No matter what, this is a great victory, and he must send someone to report to the Holy Emperor of the Ming Dynasty in time.
Compared to Manila's victory, the American continent's victory is more symbolic.
After all, this was the first time that the Ming army entered the Americas and gained a foothold in the Americas.
With a harbour like Banderas Valley (Pu. Vallarta), the Ming army will be more proactive in handling various matters in the future.
Two flowers bloom, each with one branch.
But Li Dingguo escorted Sengge back to Isfahan, the capital of the Safi Empire.
Emperor Abbas II personally led his troops out of the city to welcome him, and gave the highest courtesy of the Ming army and the Ming Jin king.
He deserves to do this, after all, the Ming army helped them defeat their old rival, the Ottoman Empire, who had not been defeated for a century.
If the Ming army had not supported him, he would not have dared to openly declare war on the Ottoman Empire even if he had lent Abbas II ten courages.
This battle was a one-time and for all, and it was completely apprehensive to defeat Ottoman.
After that, the Safi Empire will take the initiative in the Ottomans, and the Ottomans will be more cautious in handling many issues. They will never dare to think of the previous stellar power and domineering, and will not treat the Persians as humans.
So Abbas II was grateful to Ming Jun from the bottom of his heart.
Regardless of Mingjun's behavior, it would be great to help them solve these hidden dangers.
"Haha, King Jin of the Ming Dynasty, you will return triumphantly today. I will set up a banquet in the palace to welcome you."
Abbas II expressed enough sincerity.
Li Dingguo could clearly feel this.
In this case, he certainly could not refuse Abbas II's kindness.
No matter what, he is also the king of a country. He was able to condescend and treat him, the King of Jin in the Ming Dynasty, so kindly, with enough face.
It is impolite to come but not come back, and of course Li Dingguo also has to give Abbas II face.
After all, His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to the cooperation between the Ming and the Persians.
If we can take this opportunity to open up the Silk Road matters, then Li Dingguo can be said to have completed the task perfectly.
Li Dingguo is also a very strong person.
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty asked him and Zheng Chenggong to open up the Silk Road and the Maritime Silk Road at the same time, which was obviously a comparison between the two.

bsp;In fact, there have been constant comparisons between Zheng Chenggong and Li Dingguo.
There has never been a conclusion on which of the two is stronger.
But this time the emperor obviously had to set a high point, so Li Dingguo naturally would not give up and must fight until the last moment.
Although you may not be able to hold on in the end, you must not let go of this tone
The banquet in the Persian Palace was very grand, and there were more than a hundred dancing girls alone.
In addition to various waiters and eunuchs, the entire palace was surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.
Li Dingguo led Liu Xingming and other capable generals to the banquet and sat down in the order of superiority.
As the Persian emperor, Abbas II naturally sat at the top.
Abbas II clapped his palms, and then a group of young Persian dancers in tulle walked into the hall one after another.
They saluted Abbas first, then stood up and swirled back.
Li Dingguo was fascinated by it.
These Persian dancers have very charming figures, which are stunning.
Although Li Dingguo rarely gets close to women in wars on weekdays, it does not mean that he is not interested in it.
Food, sex and nature are also what the saints said, representing human nature.
This is the nature, how can you resist?
It’s just that Li Dingguo was relatively self-disciplined and suppressed himself as much as possible when marching and fighting.
After the dance, Abbas II raised his wine glass to celebrate.
Li Dingguo, Liu Xingming and others also stood up one after another and raised their glasses to return the gift.
"This time, on behalf of the Safi Empire, I would like to thank the Ming army for the arrival of the Ming army and help us resolve the Ottoman invasion."
Abbas II seemed to have a long time ago and continued, "I heard that the emperor of your country wanted to open up the Silk Road, which is also the wish of our Safi Empire. The Persians have been hospitality since ancient times. If guests from the far east could arrive at us, we would definitely welcome him warmly."
Because Li Dingguo and Abbas II had been through the bottom before, Abbas II simply took advantage of this opportunity to take the initiative to propose it.
Li Dingguo was in a good mood naturally.
It was better for Abbas II to mention it than for him to mention it.
And in this way, the Ming Dynasty became more proactive in the construction of the Silk Road.
Sometimes the difference between active and passive is very huge. If the Ming Dynasty can dominate, it will have greater voice.
As for the Persians, since they were so harmonious and friendly, it was not a bad idea to follow the Ming Dynasty to drink soup.
"Thank you for your kindness in the Safi Emperor's favor, I will tell your words to our emperor."
Li Dingguo also acted as a concurrent envoy at this moment. His status is the highest among the people here, so it is naturally the most appropriate for him to express his opinion.
"good!"
Abbas II narrowed his eyes and said, "Cheer to the friendship between the two countries."
Abbas II raised his glass and drank it all.
At this moment, he was convinced that the Safi Empire could form an alliance with the Ming Dynasty and become the closest ally.
With such an ally, the Safi Empire has a long-term backer.
Since then, the Ottomans have never thought of stepping into the Safi Empire.
Abbas II felt that he could be comparable to those great kings in Persian history, and few people could achieve what he did for the Persians in the next hundred years.
