Chapter 766, angry European countries
Here in the Golden Continent, Ming and Spain's joint attack on European countries is still going on.

In a sea area in the Caribbean Sea, three Ming ships were biting two Portuguese ships tightly, accompanied by waves of billowing white smoke, shells came and went, and the fire was in full swing.

"These hateful Daming people, are they crazy?"

"And those Spaniards, they went crazy too."

"They joined forces to attack us. At first I thought the news was fake. The French, British, and Dutch all said that they were hit by the Daming and the Spaniards. All the colonies in America were destroyed. clean."

"I didn't expect the news to be true. They even have to deal with us Portuguese."

The Portuguese on board fled desperately, looking extremely angry.

The Ming people and the Spaniards actually joined forces. At this moment, in the entire Americas, only the Spanish colonies remained, and all the colonies of other countries were destroyed.

The pirate merchant ships entrenched here in the Caribbean Sea were also jointly suppressed by the Ming people and the Spaniards. The pirates who were so rampant all of a sudden ceased their fire completely. They were either sent into the sea, or they were forced to Flee back to Europe.

"Boom~"

At this time, accompanied by a round of deafening shelling, a large number of shells roared in, and huge water columns rose up on the sea surface of the ship.

Several of the shells hit the ship, and there were bursts of wailing sounds. What was even more unfortunate was that one of the masts was hit and fell heavily, and the speed of the ship suddenly decreased.

"Boom~Boom~"

Another round of volley, intensive shelling, and howling shells made the Portuguese on board feel deeply desperate.

The artillery of the Ming people is really too powerful.

The power is great, the attack speed is extremely fast, and more importantly, the hit rate is very high.

Facing such a terrifying opponent, their pirate heroism has no room for display, and they can only watch helplessly as the ship is riddled with holes.

"Raise the white flag ~ Surrender!"

After another round of volleys, the Portuguese decisively chose to surrender. If they continued to fight, they would be dead. If there were another round or two of volleys, the ship would be sunk.

Similar scenes continued to happen on the east coast of the Golden Continent, and the power of European countries on the east coast of the Golden Continent was dealt a devastating blow.

From the major strongholds that were destroyed first, and then the pirate merchant ships entrenched in various routes and sea areas, with the information held by the Spaniards, coupled with the powerful ships of Ming Dynasty, almost all of them could not escape death.

Only a few ships escaped back to Europe to carry the news back to Europe.

Spain, in the royal palace of Toledo, the capital of Spain.

Queens Isabella I and Ferdinand II of Spain received early messages from America.

"This Columbus is really a good advocate. Ming's trade rights are certainly very profitable, but because of this, Spain will be isolated from the whole of Europe, and then we will be in big trouble."

Looking at the agreement signed with the Ming people brought back from the Americas.

For Spain, the land in the Americas doesn't matter. Their population is small, and their own land is enough. There is no problem at all in admitting that the Americas belong to Ming Dynasty.

As for what was mentioned in the agreement, allowing Spain to enjoy exclusive trade rights in the Americas, this is naturally very good. If the commodity trade of Ming Dynasty is monopolized by the Spaniards, it can bring unimaginable huge benefits to the Spaniards.

This is a real mountain of gold and silver, and it doesn't need to be too hard, just a simple transit trade.

But teaming up with the Ming people to clear the strongholds of European countries on the American side and attack the merchant ships and pirates of European countries, this is tantamount to isolating Spain.

At that time, Spain will face Portugal, the French, the British, and the Dutch, and the war may be imminent.

At that time, it may not be just a battle for maritime trade rights. The Portuguese and the French are very likely to attack Spain from land.

"What an idiot, the cake is too big for us in Spain to eat it alone."

Ferdinand II roared angrily.

"No, I think Columbus is still a very smart person, he can see clearly."

Isabella I smiled and shook her head and said, "The people sent to Daming have sent back news. There is no doubt that Daming is strong."

"They have a huge population of hundreds of millions, their shipyards launch thousands of ships every month, and their steel plants smelt more steel than our entire country produces in a year."

"They are carrying out active military reforms, and plan to build a powerful army of one million people and three extremely powerful navies."

"The Ming people are bound to win America, and they will never share America with anyone."

"For Daming, the most important thing in America is not gold and silver, but the vast land, and they are immigrating to America in large numbers."

"Even if we don't cooperate with the Ming people now, it is estimated that next year, if the Ming people's navy is dispatched to the Americas, the Ming people themselves will be able to clean up all the power of our Europeans in the Americas."

"Our entire Europe is no match for the Ming people. It is a wise move to cooperate with the Ming people."

Isabella I was very discerning in seeing things. She clearly saw the strength of the Ming people and their ambition to monopolize America.

On the issue of America, the Ming people will not retreat in the slightest. The reason why they gave way to the Europeans is because their ships have not reached the east coast of America.

"However, this would leave us Spain isolated, facing enemies from all sides."

Ferdinand II nodded slightly, but still said.

"Where there are benefits, there will be risks. The trade rights of the Ming people are not so easy to enjoy exclusively. We should actively prepare for battle. Our great Spain, perhaps, should also learn from the Ming people, so that it can become stronger."

Isabella I did not deny this, and European countries will certainly not be reconciled.

In the royal palace of Lisbon, Portugal.

"Bang~"

Manuel I hammered his entire body on the table like an angry lion.

"The Spaniards joined forces with the Ming people and even attacked our colony in the True Cross. This is a declaration of war against Portugal. This is an invasion."

He walked around angrily and roared.

Soon after, he seemed to think of something, and immediately laughed and said, "Haha, the Spaniards are looking for death. Da Ming is extremely powerful, but Da Ming is far away in the east. Even if he is powerful, he can't care about us." Europe."

"The Spaniards want to exclusively enjoy the trading rights of the Ming people and make enemies of the entire European countries. This is self-destruction. Even though Spain is powerful, it is absolutely impossible to fight against so many countries."

"Come on, contact the French, the British, and the Dutch immediately to discuss a joint attack on Spain and let them know how powerful we are."

"You dare to unite with the Ming people to attack our colony in America. I want them to know that this is the stupidest decision they have ever made."

……

In the palace of Paris, France.

Louis XII also received news from America.

The great France was unexpectedly attacked by Spain and Ming Dynasty. The colonies they had just established in the Americas were attacked destructively. The French merchant ships were destroyed. After the noble French surrendered, they were treated as slaves by the Ming people. General treatment.

This made Louis XII feel extremely humiliated.

Louis XII was a more accomplished monarch. He reformed the tax system and lightened the national burden. He had a very high prestige in France. During this period, France was also extremely powerful.

The powerful French have been trying to restore the glory of their ancestor Charlemagne, ambitious, the main force is still on land, and they don't have much interest in overseas colonization.

However, they were attacked by the Ming and Spaniards just when they first set foot in the Americas, which made Louis XII very angry.

"It seems that it is time for us to tell those matadors in Spain who is the boss on the European road."

"Contact the British, Dutch, and Portuguese immediately. The Ming people are too far away. We can work together to deal with the Spaniards first."

……

London, England.

At this time, the British were still synonymous with poverty, pirates, and backwardness, making it impossible for people to see a trace of the majestic figure of the empire on which the sun never sets.

There is no way for the British to unify the small British Isles, and their strength is actually quite weak.

Especially the power at sea, the power of the British is far inferior to that of the Spaniards in this period, and they even have to rely on private private merchant ships.

The British king often issued privateer certificates to private private ships, and ships with privateer certificates were equivalent to nationally recognized pirates.

Relying on such despicable and shameless third-rate means, it is also accompanied by the American colonies and wealth rushing towards Europe. By robbing the Spanish treasure ships, the British quickly became rich, and at the same time stimulated the development of the shipbuilding industry and The strength of the sea.

In the end, it went through several wars and defeated the Spanish Armada before it gradually rose.

But the British in this matter are more engaged in the shady pirate business.

In the palace, Henry VII, the founder of the Tudor Dynasty, walked around the palace frowning. Their newly established stronghold on the American side was destroyed by the Daming and the Spaniards.

This made him very angry, but the Spaniards of this period were indeed very powerful, especially the power of Spain at sea, which was enough to crush the British of this period.

And all along, he has been committed to maintaining a fairly good relationship with Spain. He let his son marry the princess of the Kingdom of Aragon, Spain, in order to conclude a relationship with King Ferdinand II of Aragon and the Kingdom of Castile. Allies of Queen Isabella I.

Spain is too powerful, and the British must maintain a good relationship with them. At this time, they cannot tear themselves apart with the Spaniards, otherwise all Spanish ships can come to London.

"We are being bullied, so we must show something, not to mention that the right to trade with the Ming people must not be exclusive to the Spaniards!"

 The royal families of European countries seem to be like cousins~~
