Chapter 64 Dragon Plan 7: Bengal Storm (5) Prince of Arakan (Part 1)
Tuere nodded frequently after saying this, "Uncle San, do you mean to attract Meng Yun to Bangladesh, and then defeat him, and then influence the Arakan people in the entire Arakan Kingdom? Turn it into a naturalized Truqin people
The largest stronghold?"
Timur nodded, "Yes, since we want to naturalize, we have to naturalize the people on the sea. At present, no one can compare to our country's strength at sea. According to Dubres, the Alagans are also good at it.
Navigation, and there are a large number of high-quality ships in Myanmar”
"Alagans want to come to Bangladesh. Because the mountains are crisscrossing in their territory, they will definitely use the sea route, so the sea is much more convenient. Once you get to the sea, haha..."
Everyone understood and laughed.
....
Suha found Siraj.
"What?"
When he learned that he was going to Chittagong to spread rumors and cause trouble, he jumped up again.
Suha is not Timur or Toure. He held him down and sneered: "Now your mortal enemy, your uncle Jafa has 3,000 standing troops near Dhaka, and can mobilize tens of thousands of troops at any time.
If East Bangladesh is safe, you will not have any chance to arrive in Budwan”
Siraj finally calmed down and said for a while: "Just let my men do this. Let me leave you two people, do you think?"
Suha was about to scold him, but then he thought, "There is no Prince of Arakan in Chittagong? Maybe everyone guessed it wrong. There are more than 200,000 Arakans there, so how easy is it to find out?
The people of Siraj secretly sneaked into the port to investigate carefully is what our intelligence personnel should do.”
"Okay"
The fleet first sailed to Chittagong, and then lowered a small boat nearby, carrying four people on it. In addition to the two Bangladeshis left by Shiraj, Suha also brought an intelligence officer.
Suha and the man dressed up as the Aragans in Chittagong - in fact, compared with the Bangladesh, there was an extra cloth scarf on their heads and a colorful cloth scarf.
Among the people left by Siraj, there is a bankrupt Kshatriya with a lighter complexion. Although Chittagong is in the hands of the Danes, most of the people in the city are still Bangladeshis, the Alagans and Assams are all in the city.
Living in a shack outside, with this Kshatriya here, I guess it's easy to get in there.
Previously, a Batulu sailed into the mouth of the Hugli River in advance, cleaned up the British ships that were still there, and then all the fleets entered the Damodel River.
Not long after, they saw Mangur located on the right bank highland!
Mangur is just a village, with a small harbor along the coast, with several fishing boats parked. Seeing such a huge fleet of ships emitting black smoke, the Shudra on the fishing boat had already been frightened and fled.
According to the previous plan, Siraj and Dubres's men were here, and rushed to Budwan along the Damodel River. There would be Saiyin surveillance at all times. If British troops came, they would
I will go south quickly to notify the brigade.
Timur obviously underestimated Siraj's influence. When he and Dubres and others came to Mangur village, the village chief and the landlord immediately brought the whole village to pay their respects.
p>
Not long after, the whole village followed Siraj, leaving behind a group of stunned expressions such as Timur, which made them deeply realize the terror of Brahminism.
"There is a battalion of European soldiers around Dubres. Even if it encounters problems, there should be no major problems."
Timur said to Deng Quan: "Our enemy is the British. Although we have the advantage of water, we still have the disadvantage in terms of number of people on land. The British have the second only to the French. They are completely
The Bengals and the Oliza people around them can be mobilized, and the Jharkands come to attack us"
"It is more likely that a large number of reinforcements were transported from Mumbai. We cannot control the surrounding tribes, but Mumbai's reinforcements must be taken care of"
Deng Quan smiled and said, "I have already thought about it, because the British are in Mumbai, and the main naval force in Kolkata has been eliminated by us. There are probably some armed merchant ships left on the east and west sides of India. I sent two Batulu to go.
Just clean it up”
Timur nodded, "When will the coal and fresh water on the ship be used?"
"Coal can last for three months, which is enough. As for freshwater, there are many Portuguese ports along the way. According to Henry, the British had a base on the east coast of Madras, and then Mumbai, and the rest was just
There is a shop, so it will be much easier to clean it up”
Timur said: "When you finish cleaning the west coast, you take Henry to Goa and ask them to take over the base in Madras. Since the Clay General's main forces are all in Bangladesh, there are definitely not many British soldiers there.
, just use Marines to deal with it”
"In addition to the French, we will probably be able to stabilize the West Coast area, and we cannot fight alone"
Deng Quan asked: "I heard that the Portuguese had a good relationship with the British. Do they dare to go to war with them at the risk of offending the British?"
Timur replied lightly: "Since they chose our Truchen, they have to bear all the consequences. They have never been able to act well after getting a bargain. Besides, Europeans are not great charitable people. If they don't take advantage of it, they are fools."
"What's more, we have a base in the Mediterranean Sea now, and also in Genitra, Morocco. Once the British attack them, we will know quickly."
"Besides, the news that we have wiped out the British Indian fleet has not reached this point. Mangur is still two hundred miles away from Kolkata. Klev is probably still in the dark now. Even if he knows now, he will go to the local area.
Send ships and arrive in the UK will be the first half of next year. What are you afraid of?”
After supplying freshwater and vegetables in Mangur (remained by the villagers of Mangur), the two Batulu went south again. There was also an engineering battalion in the fleet. At that moment, they took out various supplies and started construction in one company.
The pier, one company builds a wharf, and the other company starts building barracks in each village with the craftsmen on the boat.
Because the river water is too deep, the pier is not built at night, and these ships can barely be docked.
The dock was also set up to level the ground, and the village of Mangur can only build a circle of low walls formed by filling soil with straw bags. However, there are still a large number of thatched houses on the shore, and many people can live in the landlord's manor in the middle.
, only half of the sailors left on the boat that night, all the rest went to Mangur Village to rest.
According to the estimates of the craftsman leader and the battalion commander of the engineering battalion, it will take at least one month to completely complete the construction of Mangul Fort.
After rushing on the sea for several months, even the sailors who were familiar with the stormy waves were very tired, let alone others? The flow rate of the Damodel River was extremely smooth after arriving here, and those who were resting on the boat could feel the rare tranquility.
/p>
During the day, just as they were nervously building Mangur, the Saiyin ship carried Suha and others to approach Chittagong. After putting down the boat ten miles away from Chittagong, several people passed by.
After rowing nervously, I finally arrived in Chittagong.
Chittagong is located on the west bank of the Gornopri River. If you want to reach this port, you have to sail upwards against the Gornopri River for a distance. The small boat that Suha and the others were riding was built by the French in Bangladesh, and it is in the local area.
There is no difference between the boat.
So, the four people arrived at the port exhausted and did not suffer any twists and turns along the way.
"Your Excellency"
The down-and-out Kshatriya Bengali man named Jaya, dressed in an extremely luxurious manner at this time, but he still nodded and bowed in front of Suha.
At this time, most of the Khartican classes either became warlords, big lords, or rich landlords, and a few who went bankrupt for various reasons became military generals and stewards of the first two.
People like this still have a high status.
The Danes had built a large pier here that could be parked hundreds of ships. In addition to the large ships that needed people from the shore to guide them into the mooring, the small boats were taking advantage of the situation. At that moment, Suha and others found an empty space and went in.
/p>
"Bang"
The bow of the boat was thumped on the stone wall of the dock, and a slightly larger fishing boat parked on the side also encountered it.
Soon, someone stood up on the boat.
Suha glanced at her eyes.
I saw a thin and thin man about thirty-four years old, with a somewhat similar face to him. It seems that he is either Alagan or Assam. I think that Bres said before that Alagans are excellent sailors.
, Then this person is obviously an Alagan.
The man was naked, with ribs protruding out. He was wearing extremely loose linen pants, with his legs rolled up high until he was above his knees, and he also had a dirty cloth towel on his head. He used a pants.
The ragged linen is tied randomly.
A knife is inserted obliquely around the waist.
The man was about to have an attack, but when he saw Jaya dressed as an upper-class Bangladeshi, he immediately softened. However, when he saw Jaya's two suspected Alagan people with lighter skin, his eyes suddenly appeared.
I'm angry.
However, he still lowered his head and bent down to watch Suha and others get ashore.
As soon as I walked onto the shore, a large number of people rushed over, most of whom were Alagan people. Seeing that they didn't have much luggage, these people scattered.
"Your Excellency"
Jia Ya whispered while walking.
"There are more than 200,000 people here. Most of them make a living on the water. Most of them live outside the city. They not only live in Chittagong, but also on this river, which is specially designed for
The nobles from both sides of the Taiwan Strait transport supplies and welcome and send them to you”
"Alagan people hold flower headscarves, while Assam's headscarves are mostly monochrome, and the rest are almost the same"
Suha nodded, "Does these people have leaders?"
Jaya said: "The Alakans are very united. Although they do the work of Shudra, they are not convinced by the noble Bengals, because most of them are Islamic people"
"Assams are better because most of them are Hindus, and their Shudra is honest when they see us"
