The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

That's right, last night Don Aznar Antonio called the officers together and told him that his real plan was to flee without a fight, to the New World, the American Continent!

In his opinion, the imperial court sent him to fight the Nanhua Fleet purely to die. If he couldn't beat him, it didn't count, and it was not worthwhile to take his own honor and life.

The so-called shame is not as good as hiding it, so I just ran away.

Staying in Europe is absolutely a dead end, so run, the farther the better, the sea and the sky are open to the New World, if the Chinese want to pursue it, they must send out the main force, and the pressure on the Spanish mainland will be greatly reduced. If they do not pursue it, the Spanish fleet will be safe.

He secretly took all his main family members with him on the fleet, and as for the other officers, he could blame him, since he just didn't want to fight anyway.

The Nanhua Navy found out that they had been fooled, and set sail to pursue them with all their strength. However, the Spaniards did not overload their warships like in previous battles—that is, they loaded more ammunition, but with normal base ammunition. The speed of the ship was faster than that of the overloaded Nanhua battleship. The Spaniards still have the foundation of a veteran seafaring country, and they wanted to escape, but the Chinese couldn't catch up, so they could only curse from behind.

"Stop chasing!" Yan Zhang knew well that unless the excessive ammunition of each ship was unloaded, it would be possible to catch up, but if they did catch up, there might not be any results. It might take a long time to chase, which would affect the emperor's attitude towards the ship. Spanish blockade.

Yan Zhang regretfully ordered the troops to withdraw, and the officers and soldiers of Nanhua watched the Spaniards leave like a grieving wife.

Viscount Leo Grozny on the flagship "Immaculate Conception" found Don Asnar Antonio and asked angrily, "Why didn't you fight?"

"We can't fight. We are going to the New World and start a new life!" The admiral said calmly, but the officers and soldiers around him looked at the viscount with unkind expressions.

Looking at the admiral, and at the surrounding officers and soldiers, Viscount Leo Grozny suddenly smiled and said, "Thank you for saving my life, my lord. If there is a war, I may lose my life, but now I am safe!"

Seeing that he knows what to do, Don Aznar Antonio also said kindly: "Go to the New World, the scenery there is not bad!"

Let’s say that the Spanish fleet left the port, but the sound of gunfire was not heard in the southwestern waters. One day later, the defenders in the port of La Coruña were notified by the Chinese and told them, “Your fleet has escaped and ran to The Americas are gone, you should surrender quickly, so we can call it a day and go back to London to rest!"

ah!

The defenders did not dare to neglect, and immediately reported to the city of Madrid. Immediately, the Spaniards in the hall stared wide-eyed, and no one could speak!

The Minister of State, Valencia Gaja Alba, was furious, and he yelled at Don Aznar Antonio for being greedy for life and fear of death, and demanded that his family be imprisoned.

He sent people to arrest his family members, and soon after, the people who sent them came back empty-handed and said that his main family members had run away, and it turned out that he had premeditated.

All the ministers continued to denounce Don Aznar Antonio for treason, bullying, breach of trust, and blasphemy.

Bahammond Saldovar Ruiz, the Deputy Minister of Finance, said coolly: "He didn't want to fight at the beginning, but you forced him to fight. Save your saliva, and think about how to deal with the Chinese blockade!"

These words made all the ministers stop their voices. Without the fleet, Spain is like a living room without a door. Anyone can drive straight in without any scruples.

But what can the ministers do? The imperial meeting will be over.

Not long after, news came out that the Chinese had established a former enemy headquarters in Bordeaux, France, and that Dou Mingwang, Ma Bao, Gao Bizheng, and Jin Shengheng of the 11th Army of the South China Imperial Army had entered Bordeaux and began to gather troops, including the French, The French aristocratic private army, Shinra army, British soldiers, Dutch, mercenaries from various countries, etc., are preparing to invade Spain.

The Spanish ministers turned pale with horror, and hurried into the palace to discuss countermeasures with the queen mother and the king.

"Obviously, they want to march along the coastline, so that they have the support of the navy, and then attack Madrid!" Secretary of the Army Pablo said loudly and authentically.

Asked if he could handle them, Pablo lowered his voice vainly, yelling that with God we are invincible.

Some ministers rolled their eyes. They already understood the routines of the military figures. They kept saying that under the blessing of God, if we will win the battle, we are often not sure, otherwise it is possible to win!

What followed was a lot of wrangling and quarreling, and everyone reluctantly reached an agreement, that is, to expand the army and prepare for war in preparation for the Chinese invasion.

The Minister of Finance, Don Miguel Don Enrique, is grimacing and rubbing his bald forehead. He has written to resign for the third time, but has not been approved.

Where does the money come from for this military expansion? The minister thought hard.

The Queen Mother Maria Anna looked at the map in a daze, and saw that the city of Bordeaux was located on the west coast of France. The Chinese wanted to attack, and they obviously relied on the support of the navy. If the Spanish fleet was still there, the Chinese would not dare to be so presumptuous. , In case of a naval battle failure, the army without naval support may be wiped out by the Spaniards.

But alas!

She waved her hand, stopped the debate among the people, and said wearily: "Don't say anything more, Spain can't stand the trouble, send someone to Vienna, let's talk about peace!"

This is tantamount to admitting defeat, all the ministers were stunned, only Bahammond Saldova Ruiz, the Deputy Finance Minister, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

The queen mother has realized that these ministers are unreliable, and it is the best policy to stop losses in time. If the Chinese invade, it will be difficult to sign the alliance under the city!

She made a strategy, the king approved it, the ministers carried it out, and quarreled over who should be sent to Vienna for peace.

It is obvious that going to Vienna is going to take the blame, who is willing to go?

No one is willing to go. The current Foreign Minister Don Busquets Pedri is pale. Others can hide. He is duty-bound!

Previously, he was Deputy Foreign Minister ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He had serious discord with Foreign Minister Juan Joaquin Castro, who was sidelined due to his pro-China stance and was Demoted and sent to Vienna to serve Empress Margaret Theresa, Don Busquets Pedri took the lead in the battle.

However, this position is hot!

If the king hadn't issued a death order saying that no one could leave the post during this period, he would immediately write a letter to resign from this seemingly glamorous position that is actually very risky.

After some debate, the candidates for the peace talks were finally decided, that is, Count Don Busquets Pedri, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Viscount Don Busquets Basian, Deputy Minister of State, and Viscount Don Fernando Torres, Minister of the Palace, went to Vienna peace talks.

The meeting broke up, and the ministers left with a heavy heart. Don Busquets Pedri walked with Bahammond Saldovar Ruiz. He sighed and said to Bahammond Saldovar Ruiz Val Ruiz said: "Juan Joaquin Castro is right!"

Bahamonde Saldova Ruiz softly replied: "The truth is often in the hands of the few!" 2084/10473536
