Smith knew very well that the powerful Gan Chao would not surrender easily, unless Gan Chao realized that they could not retake Malacca.

Only when the UK firmly controls Malacca can the DPRK surrender and negotiates with the UK.

In the current situation, Britain cannot subvert Gan Chao, and can only force Gan Chao to sign a trade agreement with interests in Britain through a trade war, turning Gan Chao into a British factory.

If we tolerate the Luzon army and stay in Pahang, then the Chan Dynasty would definitely not give up. We would inevitably continue to increase the troops of the Malay Peninsula and attack Malacca again.

Therefore, the British must take Pahang City as soon as possible.

Shah Shujia said: "Those Chinese people are very powerful. If they attack strongly, the losses will be huge."

Smith frowned slightly, it was obvious that Shah Shuja didn't want to lose his troops anymore.

Although the British had a good relationship with the Mughal Empire, which gave Britain a lot of convenience, the British undoubtedly wanted more.

They saw Spain, Portugal acquired large tracts of territory overseas, and the British also wanted to obtain colonies.

They set their sights on India very early, but the Mughal Empire was too powerful.

Therefore, Britain has been actively deploying it in an attempt to subvert the Mughal Empire's rule in India.

Smith smiled slightly. His understanding of the Mughal Empire might be more clear than that of the prince Shah Shuja.

"Dignified Prince Shah, I know you want to obtain the throne of the Mughal Empire. If you can help Da Ying, Da Ying will naturally help you!" Smith planned to eat one chicken.

Shah Shuja frowned slightly when he heard this. His status in the Mughal Empire was relatively awkward. He was neither the eldest son nor Shah Jahan's favorite son.

In this case, if you want to stand out among your brothers, you must have money and support.

The British had money, muskets and cannons. If they could get their support, then the few brothers would not be his opponents.

Shah Shuja hesitated, "But the Chinese army has strong combat power, and a strong attack will kill many people, and I have more troops!"

Although the dead were untouchables, it was also his capital for fighting for the throne.

Smith said: "We can find local natives to act as cannon fodder!"

The time for Luzon to conquer Johor was short, and before he could fully eradicate the rebel forces in the territory, Smith was preparing to use the Johors to act as cannon fodder to attack Luzon's army.

Shah Shuja was happy after hearing this, "I have no problem with this. But after the matter is done, I hope your company can send me a batch of guns and cannons!"

Smith smiled and raised his glass, "No problem! My wife and children die! Come and raise our glasses together, wishing you victory!"

Shah Shuja didn't know that the British also gave his brother Aurangzeb a batch of firearms and happily drank the wine.

In Malacca City, the celebration banquet was very successful, and the alliance with each ulterior motive temporarily unified its thoughts.

All parties barely unite for their own interests.

At that moment, Smith sent people to contact the Johor army that was defeated by the Luzon army, and mobilized troops to prepare to take Paheng.

At this time, in the jungle at the southern end of the Malay Peninsula, Johor Prince Ibrahim led a group of people to deal with the army of Luzon in the tropical rainforest.

Faced with the powerful Luzon army, the Johor dynasty army was easily defeated, and Ibrahim was unwilling to surrender to the pagans and led a group of loyal subordinates to resist tenaciously in the jungle.

Originally, Ibrahim was in a very difficult situation. She was surrounded by a jungle less than fifty miles in radius and was about to be destroyed, but when he was desperate, the Luzon army and the overseas Chinese armed forces that surrounded him suddenly withdrew.

In the humble tree house, Prince Ibrahim was looking at a book, and the cover was astonished with three Chinese characters "guerrilla warfare".

The powerful economic, military and cultural influence of Ganchao is also reflected in this primitive jungle.

The military works written by Gao Huan to fight against the Qing Dynasty were spread overseas, sought after by all countries and respected as the God of War.

Prince Ibrahim was looking at Emperor Gao Huan's military masterpiece in a daze, and suddenly a subordinate led a British man over.

"His Royal Highness, I am the representative of the British East India Company!" The British businessman saluted the desolate prince in front of him against his will. "Our company was very sad to learn about what happened to Johor and decided to help His Royal Highness restore the country and drive away the Luzons!"

...

Pahang City.

After receiving the troops besieging Malacca, the Luzon army quickly retreated to Paheng.

After Zheng Zhilong returned to the city, he learned about the situation of the Battle of Malacca from Gan Hui, and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Zheng Sen said anxiously: "Father, Liu Guoxuan's defeat in the war means that the British fleet is quite powerful. Our supplies and sea retreat are very likely to be cut off by the British. The most urgent task is to take back the scattered troops immediately!"

Zheng Zhilong had a dark face and said in a panic: "If the retreat is cut off by the British, then don't you trap the lonely city? No, this is too dangerous and you must evacuate immediately!"

"Father!" Zheng Sen quickly stopped him, "Now we do not control the sea power and retreat rashly is quite dangerous. It is better to stick to Pahang to wait for assistance! I have fought with the enemy. Although the enemy's navy is strong, the mainland army is very common! We stick to Pahang and ask the court for assistance. Once the reinforcements arrive, the situation will immediately reverse!"

Zheng Zhilong heard the words, but hesitated a little. At this moment, Feng Xin hurried in and reported, "Report to the King, the artillery of the court has arrived!"

Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Sen were stunned when they heard the words, their faces were filled with surprise.

Zheng Zhilong said: "What's going on? Where are they?"

Feng Xin said: "Just landing, I'm coming to Paheng!"

Zheng Zhilong said: "Sen'er, hurry up and lead the troops to escort and transport the cannons into Paheng!"

Gao Huan agreed to Zheng Zhilong's request and gave him a batch of mortars and flowering bullets to attack Malacca City.

The fleet set sail from Shanghai and was about to enter the Strait of Malacca, and met the retreating Luzon fleet.

The leader of the Gan Army general was named Li Weng, who was Li Yan's son and was definitely the second generation of the Gan Dynasty. However, he did not follow Li Yan to congwen, but was influenced by his second wife and became a Gan Dynasty officer.

This time, the transport of artillery to Malacca was originally a way to make achievements and go through a formality. I didn’t expect that the fleet did not arrive in Malacca, and such changes occurred in the middle.

After learning about the situation of the Luzon army, Li Weng judged that Pahang would become the focus of the war between the two armies, so he decided to go to Pahang.

Zheng Sen led the army out of the city in a hurry and brought Li Wen and his team to Paheng City.

Zheng Zhilong led a group of Luzon generals to greet him at the city gate, "Haha, General Li is such a timely help!"

Li Weng is sorry for his salute, neither humble nor arrogant, "Your Highness, this time I will carry twenty mortars and cannons, two thousand fire bombs, two hot air balloons, and one battalion soldiers at the order of Your Majesty."

Zheng Zhilong was overjoyed, grabbed Li Weng's hand, and smiled: "With these cannons, Paheng will definitely be as solid as a soup!"

As he was talking, a Luzon general ran over in panic, "King, the Johor rebelled!"

Zheng Zhilong frowned slightly, then sneered. The artillery brought by Li Weng gave him confidence. He waved his hand calmly and coldly, "It's okay, I'm worried that I can't make excuses, and I will decide them. They are seeking death by themselves, just to make them determined and then spread Confucianism!"
