The Ming navy defeated the Portugurse in battles in 1521 and 1522, sinking their ships, capturing their ships and cannon and executed their crew.

The Ming asp sunk Dutch ships and captured Dutch ships in 1633

The Ming militarily defeated them.

>According to historians Spain was probably inspired with conquering China by what the Wokou pirates tried doing in the 1560s. The pirate force pretty much conquered a coastal city and was marching unopposed to Beijing

You're full of shit, the major wokou raids were nowhere near Beijing. You're confusing it with Nanjing.

Secondly as I said the wokou raiders of the 1500s and Jiajing were on Chinese pirate ships owned by Chinese pirates like Wang Zhi and were majority Chinese.

The Chinese pirates cooperated with corrupt local gentry officials in the Jiangnan region who they had personal ties to, during their smuggling and raids.

Chinese pirate captain Wang Zhi came all the way from inland Anhui which is even further west and inland than Nanjing.

The Ming arrested Wang Zhi and executed him and his pirate network fell apart.

The 1300s Japanese led and crewed wokou never had that power and were defeated by the Ming easily and boiled alive .

Both wokou waves lost all naval battles with the Ming.

The second wave, the Jiajing wokou pirates avoided naval patrols and headed straight to land otherwise the Ming navy would massacre them.
