The strength of Zheng He's fleet is far above that of Magellan Columbus. If China colonizes and expands, those small Asian and African countries will become colonies of China.

There is no doubt that if Zheng He's fleet was no match for China's strength at that time, Zheng He's purpose at that time was not to establish a colony, but only to serve Yongle Emperor Judy to find the missing Jianwen Emperor; And those Asian and African countries were nothing strong at that time, and we didn't like them either; There is no way to manage.

The main purpose of Zheng He's voyage to the West became peaceful exchange and official trade. Of course, he and his fleet also did some small things during these voyages, as follows:

Regulate ethnic conflicts and safeguard world peace (Siam, Sumatra);

Clean up the countries that rob the road and don't listen to the greetings (Ceylon Mountain countries) and take the king back to China to go to jail (hard enough);

Take other kings to China for sightseeing (Sulu delegation, led by the king himself, with a total number of more than 340 people, who came back after eating for more than a month);

Brought back the unicorn (later proved to be a giraffe), a beast that China people yearned for for thousands of years.

To sum up, it seems that these things are not trivial. )

Through Zheng He's efforts, western countries established good relations in the Ming Dynasty. Although their living habits are different and their national strength is very different, the open Daming did not regard these countries with special respect. It really conquered these countries with its own civilization and tolerance.

China, under the rule of Daming, didn't put loudspeakers on the fleet, claiming that he came for peace and friendship, just like those westerners who took the Bible and took several boats later, shouting loudly that they came to preach the gospel.

Zheng He's fleet brought rich trade materials and aid materials (some countries are really poor). His fleet never took the initiative to attack, and even self-defense was measured (such as the King of Mount Ceylon, who was later released), and never bullied others (although they did have the capital). People in western countries, regardless of race or wealth, can see sincere smiles on the faces of these strangers, and they know in their hearts that these people are friendly.

After experiencing the initial surprise, western explorers soon found that these countries have great wealth, but they don't have strong military strength, so they used all kinds of violent means to kill and set fire only to rob the property belonging to the local people.

A famous politician in South Africa once said: Westerners come to us with bibles in their hands, and we have gold in our hands. Later, they held gold in their hands and we held bibles in our hands.

This is a very pertinent evaluation. For those westerners, the locals know in their hearts that these people are evil marauders.

Even if they are finally conquered by these westerners, they will never give up their resistance, and they will fight for the day of freedom, because this outrageous conquest is impossible to be stable.

Right and wrong, be clear at a glance.

There is an old saying that is appropriate here: trust the masses, and their eyes are discerning.

Therefore, I still repeat that sentence: convincing people with virtue is definitely not a joke. Don't you see that a big country in the world today is called the East and the West, leading the North to the North? Very imposing, but also very troublesome and rebellious.

Violence can be the backing of solving problems, but it will never solve them.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty, the most powerful country in the world, had overwhelming military superiority. It was not a simple matter to treat those small countries equally, respect their sovereignty and territorial integrity, and give them without plundering them.

It is not a conqueror of force, but it really conquered almost all countries along the voyage with friendly actions.

This conquest is the conquest of the bottom of my heart, which exists in everyone's heart. When the mighty fleet arrives, people will not hide everywhere, but come out to warmly welcome these guests from afar.

In my opinion, this is the real conquest.

In addition to successfully completing his diplomatic mission, Zheng He also successfully opened up a new air route. He found that after Guri (now Coetzee Cote) and Yosemite (now Maldives), he could avoid the storm area and directly reach the Arabian Peninsula and the Red Sea coast of East African countries. This is a remarkable achievement.

During the first six voyages, Zheng He's fleet reached the east coast of Africa as far as possible, leaving its own footprints. They have been to many countries, including today's Somali, Mozambican, Kenyan and other countries, which is also the farthest place that ancient China people have been.
