Dakar, the capital of the Adal Sultanate, is a small city located inland.
Oberke almost crawled back here, and hurriedly asked to see the actual controller of the Adal Sultanate, the Emir of Harar, Imam Mahfouz.
The Adal Sultanate experienced huge political changes probably in the third year of the Chenghua Year. The then Sultan Muhammad Ibn Barrett reached a peace agreement with the Ethiopian Empire, ending the long-standing confrontation and war. situation.
But the prerequisite is that the Adal Sultanate pays tribute to Ethiopia. This humiliating and humiliating condition has aroused strong dissatisfaction among the emirs in the Adal Sultanate.
Therefore, in the sixth year of Chenghua, Emir Bin Laden and Usman joined many emirs to march into Dakar and successfully seized power. However, they did not establish themselves as Sultan, but concentrated power on themselves. Become the actual person in charge.
Now, Mahfouz has become the actual leader of the Adal Sultanate, integrating Harar, Emir, and Imam. He has always pursued a tough foreign policy, constantly attacking Ethiopia, and also committing massive robberies. Passing merchant ships came to gain wealth.
"What?"
"The Ming Dynasty invaded the port of Djibouti?"
Mahfouz was in his prime and ambitious. When he heard Oberke's report, he couldn't help but be shocked.
"Yes, the Ming people were very arrogant. They didn't even have any negotiation with us. They just opened fire and captured the port of Djibouti. Our great Adal was not even in their eyes!"
Oberke lowered his head and replied.
He wanted to return to the port of Djibouti right away because the wealth he had accumulated over the years was nowhere to be found. He was extremely anxious when he thought that the wealth he had accumulated over the years would suddenly disappear.
Therefore, he very much hopes that Mahfouz can quickly send troops to recapture the Djibouti Port quickly.
"These abominable heretics~"
"The Chu State in the south forced the Lord's believers to convert. I haven't even settled the matter with them, the Ming people. Now they have come to capture our Djibouti Port again. This is too much!"
"Send my order to assemble the entire country's troops to retake the port of Djibouti and kill all these infidels!"
When Mahfouz heard this, he immediately became furious.
They didn't have a good impression of the Ming Dynasty, especially since the Chu State established Buddhism as the state religion. A large number of MSL members from the Chu State fled to the Adal Sultanate and sought asylum from Mahfouz. Deliver justice.
For this reason, the Adal Sultanate also sent troops to attack the Chu State many times, but they were unable to do anything to the Chu State. Now the Ming Dynasty actually came directly to their hometown and occupied the most important Djibouti Port as soon as they arrived.
The uncle can tolerate it but the aunt cannot.
Soon, as Mahfouz's order was conveyed, the entire Adal Sultanate's forces quickly gathered and pressed toward Djibouti with great momentum.
At the Port of Djibouti, Mao Lun and Yang Zhen waited for nearly half a month before the army of the Adal Sultanate arrived.
Standing on the newly built cement wall, Mao Lun and Yang Zhen carefully observed the soldiers and horses of the Adal Sultanate with telescopes.
The number is about the same as mine, about 20,000. Among them, there are about a thousand cavalry, which is very rare. The rest are uneven infantry. The weapons and equipment are naturally compared with the armies in other parts of the world. It is extremely crude, but on the land of Africa, they can be considered sophisticated.
¡°It¡¯s really slow~¡±
"Half a month has passed before they came here."
"We have even built the outer wall."
Yang Zhen looked at the Adal Sultanate army in front of him and couldn't help but laugh.
Their response speed was really too slow. It took half a month for a country in a bigger place to assemble such a small amount of troops. It¡¯s a bit incredible when you think about it.
¡°It¡¯s indeed very slow~¡±
Mao Lun also smiled and nodded, then thought about it and asked, "What did the people sent by King Chu say?"
"The King of Chu hopes that we can send troops to help Chu State avenge its humiliation and attack Ethiopia."
"I heard that the Ethiopian king ordered his people to drive a hundred cows, two hundred camels, and five hundred sheep to Izumo City to propose marriage, saying that he wanted to marry the princess of Chu. As a result, the angry King of Chu vomited blood on the spot and threatened to We must be at odds with Ethiopia.¡±
When he said this, Yang Zhen couldn't help laughing.
It is naturally best to have a peaceful and good talk.
But now, the attitude of the people of Ming Dynasty is really arrogant, and they don't take themselves seriously at all.
What¡¯s more important is that the Ming people¡¯s demands are really too much.
Not only directly occupied the port of Djibouti, but also occupied the surrounding fifty miles.
The Port of Djibouti is really important to the Adal Sultanate. This port is the most important external port of the Adal Sultanate. Losing this port will not only lose the bridge for external communication, but also lose an important tax place. .
This is absolutely unacceptable to Mahfouz.
What's more, the Ming Dynasty occupied Djibouti today, and they may occupy more places tomorrow. Once they taste the sweetness, they will inevitably cannibalize themselves gradually.
Therefore, we must give the Ming Dynasty a lesson, take back Djibouti, and drive the Ming Dynasty people out.
"Great warriors~"
¡°These pagans before us are making extremely harsh and disrespectful demands on us. They are abominable pagans who are persecuting the people of the great Lord.¡±
"Pick up the scimitars in your hands and defend our land and honor!"
