Can Portugal become friends with Xia Guo?
Hearing this meaning, Yinlai Yanuo was very excited.
But among all the Westerners living in Asia, who doesn’t know the strength of Xia State now?
After all, in this era, the only one who could rob Spain of such a large colony single-handedly was the Xia Kingdom.
Yinlai Yano even learned the news from China. Regarding the robbery of Luzon, Spain was very panicked and the war was uncertain.
If you want to fight, Xia Kingdom is too far away. Deploying troops and generals costs countless dollars.
The most important thing is that the Xia Kingdom is too powerful. Even the whole country of Spain may not be able to defeat it.
If you want to make peace, Luzon will definitely not come back.
After losing such a large colony, but eager to make peace, do you still want the face of the world hegemon?
Since the Xia State is so powerful, if we can become friends with the Xia State and get the Xia State's help. If nothing else, Portugal’s road to independence will definitely be much smoother.
Can Portugal be friends with the Netherlands?
Yin Lai Yanuo's head was full of black lines, and he just felt that Liao Zhongjian was having some wild ideas.
How can we be friends with that Teddy at sea?
He didn't believe it, but Liao Zhongjian had a way.
Looking back, Liao Zhongjian invited Putmans over and sat side by side with Yinlai Arnold.
When the Dutch and Portuguese came together, lightning and lightning flew everywhere.
The two men's hands touched the handle of the knife at the same time, and they wanted to pull it out immediately and chop off the other's dog head.
"What do you think of Spain?"
"The devil who does all kinds of evil!"
"The neglect of God, the devil of men!"
The two people who were originally at war with each other immediately formed a united front and expressed their contempt for Spain.
After finishing the scolding, the two of them were quite stunned. I vaguely realize that the Netherlands and Portugal really seem to be friends.
】
After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Although the Netherlands and Portugal have many trade disputes, who in Europe has not had trade disputes now?
But compared with the great enemy Spain, what are some minor disputes?
Seeing the two of them calm down, Liao Zhongjian was smiling.
"Everyone wants to monopolize the massive wealth brought by trade. But the world is so big, who can swallow it alone? Cooperation. Only cooperation can win-win. Not to mention, there is a common enemy among us. Spain How many colonies are there in America and around the world? How much wealth is there? How can we compare with sharing Spain among ourselves when we are fighting among ourselves?”
It's a very simple truth that anyone can understand.
Putmans and Yinlai Arnold could not help but feel excited.
Today's Europe is very much like China's Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. It was a mess and fighting was going on everywhere.
Today a and b are allies, and they work together to deal with c; tomorrow b and c become allies again, and they take action with a.
Fighting over and over again is actually all about profit.
Before today, neither the Netherlands nor Portugal had ever thought of uniting to deal with Spain.
One reason is that Spain is too powerful compared to them. Even if the two countries unite, they will not be Spain's opponent.
Although the Netherlands and Portugal caused a lot of trouble for Spain around the world, this small conflict is not worth mentioning at all.
Once they really piss off Spain, launching a war that will overwhelm them will definitely be enough for them.
Another reason is that there are too many countries in Europe.
There are always other countries that are watching with eager eyes, sowing discord, and fishing in troubled waters.
The Netherlands and Portugal do not want to make wedding dresses for others and must ensure their own safety no matter what.
But things are different now.
Xia Guo enters.
When it comes to influence in the world, Spain is of course the first. But Putmans and Yin Lai Ya Nuo knew very well that the Xia Kingdom's national power was astonishing.
The emergence of the Xia Kingdom freed the two countries from worrying about other European countries benefiting from the situation.
Moreover, the great ambition of decomposing Spain has the possibility of becoming a reality.
The small disputes between them are really nothing compared with the big fat country of Spain.
Yin Lai Ya Nuo quickly passed the news to his boss Anthony Lopez.
As a mature politician, Anthony Lopez is even more excited about this plan.
Especially now that Portugal is facing a counterattack from Spain. If it can get help from Xia Guo, Portugal's independence will not have any problems.
Anthony Lopez came over personally and participated in the three-party talks.
Oh, no!
It's the four-party talks.
Liao Zhongjian also brought Rajsingh II into the fold.
"Your past practices have caused great harm to kind-hearted people around the world, and have also caused great resistance to your development. Sometimes, only by putting peace at the forefront can you gain more benefits."
Liao Zhongjian made the request.
Neither the Netherlands nor Portugal can continue to invade the Kingdom of Kandy from now on.
Portugal even had to give up its existing occupied territories.
The losses suffered by Portugal can be exchanged for the support of Xia Guo and the Netherlands.
The Xia Kingdom and the Netherlands would provide assistance to Portugal in various fields such as politics, military, and economy, and help Portugal resist Spanish aggression.
In addition, Liao Zhongjian also proposed to establish diplomatic relations between Xia and Portugal. The two countries send ambassadors to each other and at the same time open up to each other to increase economic and trade exchanges.
The Portuguese could clearly see the cooperation between Xia Guo and the Netherlands.
How is it possible to say that I am not envious?
Of course, they also want to be able to conduct comprehensive trade with the Xia Kingdom like the Netherlands.
But he was reluctant to sever ties with Ming Dynasty, so he always felt a little bit wrong.
Now that Xia Guo's powerful support is there, if the Portuguese still don't know how to choose, it will be a stick.
Anthony Lopez quickly reported the results of the negotiations to the Governor of Goa, Romario Menezes.
This man's uncle is the famous Portuguese general and Marquis of Marialva, Antonio Meneses, who has a huge influence in Portugal.
After Romario Menezes learned of the situation, he made a decision immediately without reporting it to the country.
He gave an order to the Governor of Macau, Paulo Paulo, and immediately went to Jinan. No matter what, we must gain the friendship and help of Xia State.
If possible, it is best to purchase a third-level battleship from Xia Kingdom.
Because the Xia delegation had arrived in Goa, Romario Menezes saw with his own eyes the excellence of the third-class battleship.
If there were such battleships and artillery, it would be much easier to resist the Spanish.
Shi Paulo received the order and then came to Jinan. While discussing, he presented a gift to Zuo Mengeng.
It was a wooden box about the size of a foot. After opening it, it was filled with plant seeds.
