Victory in Malacca
Victory in Malacca(MK 2)

I
The position of the Portuguese in India was consolidated with the arrival of a new Viceroy, Afonso de Albuquerque, who conquered Goa in 1510. Having established Goa as the Portuguese eastern headquarters and naval base, de Albuquerque decided to capture Malacca and in April 1511, left Goa with 18 ships and 1400 men, comprising both Portuguese troops and Indian auxiliaries.
Upon their arrival in Malacca, the Portuguese did not attack immediately, but instead began negotiations for the return of their prisoners while the same time try to find any insider information regarding Malacca Fortress.

The generals were determined to win the war Malaccan troops attacked the Portuguese and destroyed the Portuguese troops in Malacca despite the fact that the King was Procrastinating, this happened because someone discovered that someone is collaborating with the Portuguese and convinced the troops that they should never pause because any delay will cause a defeat.[1]

In a separate situation, the traitor was caught and thrown outside of Malacca.
The Sultan of Malacca thought that the war would end up as a failure but ended up as a success to the people of the Sultanate of Malacca.

In the second attempt that they tried to conquer Malacca in 1512 it ended up in failure so it was not tried again, this was an inspiration of the other Southern Asian Kingdoms to resist Western aggression towards them.

It is not known what would have happened if the battle was a Portuguese victory since Portugal was able to still establish in the Malay Archipelago.
