Castro, Peso and other Portuguese, as well as the Goa natives who surrendered to the Portuguese, were all disarmed and knelt in front of Chen Xin and the navy soldiers beside him.

"You have a chance to win, but unfortunately, you meet the navy of my Ming Dynasty. What you can think of, we can also think of, even if there are those who are dragging you down, my Ming Dynasty Navy can still turn the situation around. Of course, it's not that you are too weak, but that I am too strong, so you shouldn't be enemies with my glorious Ming Dynasty. This is your only stupid thing. In other aspects, you all act very smart!"

Chen Xin said to Castro and Pesso with his waist.

The Ming officials of this era were so confident and energetic.

After all, the Ming Dynasty is really the country of the Celestial Empire.

No matter which competition is in terms of soft power, including culture and medical care, it is a crushing level for other countries.

Portugal is indeed not a weak country.

Although he is now surrendering to Spain, his strength is still the best-ranked power in the world.

If it were not the era of the Ming Dynasty, but the world more than two hundred years later in history, and the late Qing Dynasty, Portugal would not have been so depressed, and would even follow other Western powers to Beijing to ask for a huge compensation from the Chinese rulers at that time.

Unfortunately, the China he is facing now is the Ming Dynasty.

This destined him to be unable to create greater glory.

If the Ming Dynasty does not perish, China's strength will continue.

"Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

Chen Xin didn't know the history of later generations, nor did he know how rare the confidence of the people in the country he had at this moment was in later generations, and how long the descendants yearned for them.

But he had a strong sense of glory for himself as a citizen of the Ming Dynasty.

At this moment, he couldn't help but raise his arms and exclaim.

"Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

The other navy officers and soldiers shouted.

Everyone had smiles on their faces.

Of course, they are so happy not just because of national pride.

Zhu Youxiao has established a military merit system.

Those who make meritorious services will receive shares, titles, real estate and generous rewards in the official industry.

The regaining of Goa is undoubtedly a merit that can be recorded in history.

You should know that looking at the thousands of years of history of China, it is now the first time to open up borders and territory to India.

"Why can you be so powerful if you don't believe in God? Obviously, we are the greatest nation and the people who should rule the world the most?!"

Castro asked from the bottom of his heart at this time.

This is his long-standing doubt.

As a believer, he has always been very proud of his Europa culture and also thinks that these people are the best people in the world.

But the facts repeatedly told him that these Orientals were not only rich, but also powerful enough to be invincible.

So, he really wanted to find this answer.

After Chen Xin learned about Castro's question through a translation, he was speechless. After a while, he said: "Maybe only the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty can answer your question! I am a soldier. I only know that arrogant soldiers will be defeated. From the moment you think that only by believing in God can you be powerful, you will fall into stupidity!"

As he said that, Chen Xin glanced at Peso, and then ordered Shen Zhaoyun: "You should immediately escort these Portuguese back to Beijing, offer prisoners to His Majesty the Emperor, and inform Your Majesty that Goa has been included in the Ming Dynasty and how to rule Goa. Please ask Your Majesty to issue an order quickly. I will take three hundred soldiers here first."

Chen Zhaoyun replied: "Yes!"

Then, Chen Xin looked at Croner and Abukui and said, "Next, Goa will trade and navigation according to the intentions of His Majesty the Ming Emperor. Your merchant ship will be allowed to replenish supplies and trade here, but will have to pay tariffs. In addition, if your merchant ship carries firearms, it will be considered an illegal invasion."

"This, if a merchant ship does not have firearms, how to deal with pirates? Is this condition of your country a bit harsh?"

Abukui asked at this time.

"Then you don't come to the Goa trade and docking in my Ming Dynasty! But I have to tell you that in the future, the goods going west of the Ming Dynasty will be mainly concentrated in Goa."

Chen Xin said.

Kroner and Abukui had to accept the arrangements of the Ming Dynasty and thought that in the next place, they could find a stronghold before arriving in Goa, first unload some artillery weapons of some armed warships, and then turn them into merchant ships to goa for trade.

...

More than half a year later, May of the eighth year of the Apocalypse.

Meridian Gate.

A prisoner offering ceremony is being held here at this time.

Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the Ming Dynasty, sat upright on the Meridian Gate, looking down at the Portuguese-Indian Governor Castro, who was kneeling in the distance and Peso, the commander of the Sino-Japanese Trade Fleet.

Because the distance is too far, Zhu Youxiao couldn't see Castro and Pesso's faces clearly.

But Zhu Youxiao was able to distinguish the Western outfits of these two people.

Zhu Youxiao smiled brightly: "Start!"

Then, the eunuch Liu Ruoyu shouted loudly: "The prisoner will start!"

Then, the big men in brocade clothes passed on the orders.

Not long after, Castro and Pesso were dragged to the front by the sergeant.

The two of them are now shaking like sieve, and their feet are weak.

They were not timid people at first, but the deterrence at the Meridian Gate was too great. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty who was high above seemed to be in the sky, the Five Phoenix Tower, which was so powerful that the soldiers on both sides made the two feel oppressed and were interrogated in front of the Emperor of Heaven.

At this time, the left censor Zhou Yongchun read out the crime of impeaching the barbarian governor Castro and the general Peso defies the imperial edict of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to fight against the emperor's personal army, and demands that he be punished with the same crime of accusation of rebellion.

This is a judicial process.

Even foreigners such as Castro must be impeached by the Censorate to say that they are guilty.

Because the emperor granted the Censorate the only power.

That is, only the Censorate can say who is guilty and who has violated what crime?

"Give it a defense!"

Zhu Youxiao said this at this time.

This is still the current judicial process of the Ming Dynasty.

The Censorate impeached him and I have the right to defend himself. Whether the emperor believes it or not depends on the emperor's will.

"Give me your life, Your Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, please spare me!"

Castro just shouted for forgiveness because the civilization he accepted was still in the era of barbaric plunder and massacre and suppression. Therefore, he did not know that the Ming Dynasty had its own system of crimes, so he did not know how to defend himself.

Peso also begs for mercy: "Give up your life!"

He also didn't know how to defend himself.

"The Ministry of Justice convicted and Dali Temple reviewed."

Zhu Youxiao continued to instruct at this time.

"yes!"

Wang Shaohui, Minister of Justice, and Liu Zongzhou, Master of Dali Temple, stood up.

"Resisting the order is like a rebellion. The Lingchi and the nine tribes of Yi should be sentenced!"

Wang Shaohui, Minister of Justice, replied.

"Dali Temple has no objection!"

Liu Zongzhou replied.

Zhu Youxiao nodded: "Accurate!"

Liu Ruoyu continued to stand up and shouted loudly: "The war criminals offered are dealt with for crimes of rebellion, and the execution of Lingchi will be carried out, and the nine tribes of Yi Yi!"

Castro was shocked after hearing this. He didn't expect that he would be sentenced to death before he could ask the Emperor of Ming Dynasty's doubts, but he seemed to have realized the answer again.

After Peso learned from the interpretation that he was going to be killed a lot, he fainted directly on the ground.
