Chapter 1389 The Chinese asked me to send a message
A luxurious stone building in Bengal guarded by a troop of soldiers.

"What are you doing here? This is the governor's house!" The tall Indian soldiers surrounded a sneaky guy.

"I want to see the Viceroy!" cried the diminutive man in the hood.

"What is the identity of the governor? How can you be a low-caste cub like you who can just see it?" The tall guard grabbed the short little bastard and threw it out like a trash.

The little guy didn't get angry after eating ashes on the ground, so he posted it cheekily, with a playful smile: "What I want to say to the governor is related to the Chinese people. Isn't His Majesty the emperor ordering the expulsion of the Chinese people now? If the governor reports to me If you are interested in something, maybe you will be rewarded by the governor, otherwise disaster will come!"

Although the tall guards looked down on this poor man of a low caste, when they heard that the reported matter was related to the Chinese people who were a headache to the emperor, they had to deal with it carefully.

"If you offend the governor or say something unimportant, your life will be gone! Keep an eye on him, and I will report." A guard said to the others.

Kasim, the governor of Bangladesh, is summoning several loyal and trusted generals under him.

The emperor has ordered to expel all people from the sea. In addition to the traditional Persian merchants and Arab merchants who are allowed to trade, East Asian merchants and European merchants are also expelled!
In order to complete the expulsion, the Mughals began to shrink their defenses and no longer expanded their territory, but focused on stabilizing the territory and fighting against increasingly serious threats from the sea.

His Majesty the Emperor will personally lead an army to conquer Calcutta, vowing to drive the Chinese out of Bengal.This also means that Bangladesh has to raise an army to assist His Majesty the Emperor in the siege. As the governor of Bangladesh, he has to coordinate the food needed by the army and recruit strong men to supplement the losses of the last siege.

This time, the Mughal emperor expected as many as 7 expeditionary troops and auxiliary soldiers. Bengal estimated that there would be another 3 troops, for a total of 10 troops. It is not easy to maintain such a large army.

"Your Excellency, there is a person from a lower caste outside who said that he has something related to the Chinese people to report to you. How do you arrange it..." the guard whispered in the ear of the Bangladesh Governor Kasim.

Kasim was stunned for a moment. It was really strange that someone wanted to tell him such a thing at this critical moment.

"Go back and count the people first. I want to see someone." Kasim was surprised, but the other party came to the door at this time, and he wanted to meet no matter what.

A little bum was brought in.

"Who are you? If you can't say something that satisfies me, then your fate will be miserable." Kasim doubted that such a person could have anything important to say to him.

"The villain is called Ah San. The Huaxia people asked me to bring you a message..."

After meeting Kasim successfully, the little wretch suddenly raised his head and chest, and changed from a hippie smile to an arrogant one.

"Are you a lackey of the Huaxia people?!" Kasim slapped the chair angrily.

It was the East India Company manipulated by the Chinese who built a bastion on the territory he managed, and caused him to suffer heavy losses in the siege!
"At least they regard us low-level castes as half-humans, and in the eyes of your high-level castes, we are probably not as good as a dog. Forget it, the villain is not here to argue with the adults, but the Chinese people asked me to bring you Say something." Ah San looked at the guards around Kassim, and motioned for them to retreat.

"Stand back, he doesn't dare to do anything to me," Kasim said.

"Yes." Several guards glared at Ah San before leaving.

"Tell me, what benefits did the Huaxia people give you, and what do you want from me?" Kasim said.

"Your Excellency, I wonder if you want to be the ruler of a country without submitting yourself to the Mughal emperor's jurisdiction?" Ah San said.

There was a look of surprise in Kasim's eyes, and he was immediately annoyed: "Are you trying to buy me?! I am the Governor of Bengal, and I am loyal to His Majesty the Emperor. How could a villain like you be able to buy me!"

"I'm just conveying that Chinese merchants want to trade with the empire, but the prince of the empire wants to drive us away. This is really against that... yes, it's against the spirit of free trade. If you are willing to trade with the empire, my lord Let’s cooperate. The Chinese people said that they can help you to become independent from the Mughal Empire. Even if you build an independent kingdom in Bengal in the future, it’s much better for you to be the king than to be a slave under the emperor’s hands. It's gone." Ah San gestured.

"Shut up! This is to make me betray the empire!" Kasim stretched out his hand to stop Ah San's words. He never thought that he would be bribed by someone from a lower caste.

"People don't do it for themselves! The governor really doesn't want to be a king, and doesn't need to rely on the breath of the emperor?" Ah San continued to seduce the Bangladeshi governor.

"Needless to say, get out, or I'll let someone kill you!" Kasim was a little annoyed.

Breaking away from the Mughal Empire and becoming an independent kingdom, from a local governor to a king of a country, is a tempting proposal for Kassim.But he thought about something more...

"If you are not willing to become the king of Bengal, Mr. Governor, then the Chinese will find new collaborators from other kings to help him become the king of Bengal. We just want to establish a trade relationship with the actual ruler of Bengal. It was our helpless choice when the emperor of the Mughal Empire expelled us..." After Ah San finished speaking, she turned and left.

Kasim looked at Ah San's leaving figure, pondered uneasily for a while, and called a few guards: "Bring back that little bastard just now."

After a while, Ah San was brought back by the guards.

"What ability does the Chinese have to help a prince become the king of Bengal? If you rebel against the empire, you will be besieged by the emperor's army and other provincial armies. No one can stop the crushing of a hundred thousand cavalry on land. The Chinese are in Hooghly The reason why the bastion built near the river is easy to defend and difficult to attack is that it can get support through waterways, and there is no danger to defend on the Ganges plain without the river." Kasim said.

"We have heard the news that the emperor wants to conquer our fort. If the emperor's army loses in the battle, the emperor's prestige will plummet. At that time, the empire will be in turmoil. You will establish yourself as the king of Bengal and sign a free trade agreement with us. We guarantee that only Activities along the river, don't interfere with your affairs." Ah San made a generous statement.
