Chapter 756 Daming is also a great power (fourth update, please subscribe)
"What a beautiful work of art!"

Playing with the scimitar in his hand, Song Yunchu couldn't help admiring the decorations on the scabbard such as gemstones, red coral, ivory, rhino horn, cow horn, shells, silver, copper, and gold.
"How can such a work of art be used to kill people? It should be placed in a museum!"

This kind of Gabia dagger is the standard equipment for men here. When a boy is [-] years old, he will give a Gabia dagger to the boy who is about to become an adult, to show that the boy has grown up and has the rights and obligations of an adult. .They would also carry them for life, and of course, these daggers are now the trophies of sailors.

Of course, it will also become a display in daimyo museums, just like British museums display those precious works of art looted from all over the world.It will become a symbol of the strength of the Ming Empire.

What is imperialism?This is imperialism.But this imperialism is impeccable.

For the author, you either accept it, or what else do you choose besides accepting it?

After playing with the dagger for a while, he put the dagger on his waist. Of course, this is a gift from him to his children. As for the ones sent to the museum, he will give better things.

Song Yunchu turned his attention to those captives - 500 palace guards. Except for 347 people who died, the rest became captives. The wounded were lying on the ground, and the others were squatting in panic.

As for the Sambajir Sultan Said, who was captured after failing to escape from the palace, the entire battle took...

"32 minutes!"

There was a smug smile on Ding Zezhong's face.

"We ended a war and a nation in 32 minutes!"

A country has perished!
Now even the Sultan King has been captured, can it not be destroyed?
Of course, what he needs is not to destroy the country, but...

"In the future, this battle will definitely be recorded in the history of world wars. It is probably the shortest war in the world!"

Complacent, Ding Zezhong asked.

"Li Cunli, is the British consul here?"

The guns have spoken, now it is the turn of diplomacy, and now that the sun has dawned, as half of the protectorate of Sambagil, can the British consul not show up?
"On the way."

"Well, very good, you go to see if Said has compromised?"

……

"You are a bunch of robbers!"

Facing Chen Haowen, Said, who was imprisoned in the cabin of the warship, seemed to understand why all this happened.

"You occupied my land on the coast, blackmailed those chiefs, and now even blow up my palace and kill my family, you damn Ming robbers!"

Facing the accusation from Said, Chen Haowen said directly.

"If I say that the cause of this incident is because you still insist on the slave trade, and stubbornly refuse to progress and continue to use slaves, so we just ask you to free the slaves, you will not believe it!"

For example, he didn't believe it anymore, even Chen Haowen himself didn't believe it when he said this. After all, he didn't care about those slaves at all.

They don't care whether they are free or not, and they don't care whether they live or not.Like those pictures he had people take in the port.He needs to use the photos of the dead slaves to prove that the righteous slavery of this operation is just an excuse.

"slave!"

Said said in a sarcastic tone.

"The United States has slaves, Brazil has slaves, and Cuba also has slaves. Why don't you go to war with them? The reason why you invaded Sambaqel is because of our weakness, but don't forget, my lord, Britain, Britain is on our side On one side!"

For Saeed, Britain has now become his last resort.

As for what slaves are not slaves.It doesn't matter at all, just like these Daming people standing in front of him, did they invade for slaves?
Everyone knows that the reason they invaded here is to obtain those lands on the coast of East Africa.

"U.K……"

Chen Haowen smiled sarcastically.

"After the opening of the Suez Canal, what role will Sambajill have for Britain? It is already insignificant. Will Britain go to war with Ming Dynasty for a worthless Sambajill?"

Staring at Said, Chen Haowen directly threw out a contract that had been prepared long ago.

"You have two options now. One is to sign this treaty, ceding all the coastal land from Mogadishu to Dar es Salaam to Ming, and to recognize Ming's possession in this area. As for the second Well,"

Chen Haowen said seriously.

"I think we all know the outcome."

"You, you..."

Said originally thought that their goal was only Dar es Salaam, but he thought that they actually wanted to claim such a vast land. Yes, those lands belonged to Sambajill, and it was Sambajill who came from Land inherited by Oman.

"Aren't you afraid of provoking England's wrath?"

Facing Said's "reminder", Chen Haowen said.

"You don't need to worry about this, you should consider taking it yourself, either you sign a contract, or we will take it ourselves, but you know what your result will be!"

Faced with such a threat from Chiguoguo, Said said in an extremely helpless tone.

"Can you guarantee my safety?"

"As long as you sign the treaty and implement it, we will withdraw our troops from here."

Then Chen Haowen specially reminded.

"About the terms of the emancipation of black slaves, the agreed period is ten years, you only need to fulfill this treaty within ten years, and, Your Majesty the Sultan, the reason why we ask you to cede the Shen'an area you control is, in the final analysis, for the sake of Stop your slavery! This is for freedom!"

Do you believe it?

After hearing Lieutenant Colonel Ding Ze's answer, Mars said in a sarcastic tone.

"Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, for freedom? For blacks, who would believe such a reason?"

"Mr. Consul, the whole world will believe it, and we have solid evidence that even when they renounced the slave trade, there was still widespread slavery and the slave trade in Sambagire, in order to stop your country We were forced to initiate this action by the Prohibition of Slavery Convention, and after being attacked, we were forced to fight back. Now, after careful consideration, we believe that only by controlling the coastal areas can we completely cut off their penetration into the interior. Slave-raiding, thereby ending the slave trade, sir, for liberty! For the liberty of all Negroes!"

Only ghosts can believe this. The most important reason why Britain banned the slave trade was that it wanted to attack the slave trade to combat the development of the New World. Slaves, by cracking down on the slave trade, can hit their plantation economy and thus their national power.

In the final analysis, it is all for profit, even the most noble reason is based on profit.

"Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, I have to warn you that Britain has extremely special interests in Sambagiel. We will never tolerate any country annexing this country, or occupying the land here without our permission!"

Facing Mars' warning, Ding Zezhong just smiled indifferently.

"These questions are all diplomats' questions, but please rest assured that we have no interest in Sambakir Island! Soon, Sultan Saeed will be released."

Now that the treaty has been signed, Said is useless, and the rest is to negotiate with the United Kingdom.

"Diplomatic issues,..."

Mars sneered.

"Lieutenant Colonel, if we cannot properly resolve this issue, perhaps, this may not be as simple as a diplomatic issue!"

When he said these words, Mars completely forgot one thing, that is, what he was facing was a rising power.

As a rising power, he is bound to look for its prey around the world like other European powers.It's just that Mars' thinking is still stuck in the past, he didn't realize this change at all, so he made such a judgment.

It's not a diplomatic issue, it's war!
The smile on Ding Zezhong's face disappeared. He looked at the British consul in front of him. Although the other party seemed calm, he could feel the bluff and bluff in the other party's tone... I am afraid that this is why British diplomats never go anywhere. And the unfavorable root cause of it!
What they are best at is bluffing, and the reason why they can bluff is precisely because in the past two hundred years, the British Navy has used their naval guns time and time again to tell others that they are not bluffing!

Just like these things that the Ming Fleet is doing now.It is to allow your own diplomats to stand up in front of other countries in the future-tell other people that you will pay the price for your actions.

Even if it's a bluff.At least they have the capital to bluff!
But the problem is that their bluff can be used on those small and weak countries, but they can be used on Ming Dynasty, of course it is impossible.

Because the current Ming Dynasty is not a weak country, nor is it a small country. Ming Dynasty is a country that can challenge the UK in many areas and can wrestle with the UK.

Whether the British are willing to face this reality or not, it is the reality.

"If it's not a diplomatic issue, it's a war issue!"

Facing this kind of unscrupulous danger from the British, Ding Zezhong certainly couldn't make any concessions.After saying these words, he said seriously.

"Sir, if this is your attitude, then I want to tell you something. Compared with diplomacy, I think war is better for me as a soldier to deal with problems!"
