The Portuguese in the Sea of Oman

_ 15 _ Item: Geronimo Teixeira stated that the Captain General should leave ample supplies in his fortresses, especially Cochin. He did not think that they should leave Cochin trusting in the friendship of the Moors and the King of Cochin. As for Goa, it should be captured, defeated and destroyed provided that they did not leave any people there who were able to build a fortress. The main point was that they should go to Ormuz to build a fortress and factory there, and from there go after the Rumes.
