Chapter 1608 Need to talk

However, this is precisely what the Spaniards cannot do for the time being.

Ferdinand VI thought for a while, and said: "Then we will bear with it and continue to build ships and ships. I don't believe it. We can't win against the British, and we can't suppress a pirate. Let them be so arrogant."

The minister persuaded from the side: "Your Majesty, I suggest peace talks with them."

King Ferdinand VI of Spain was stunned. He felt his neck was stiff. He looked at his minister. He thought that this guy must have something wrong with his brain, or he must have taken the wrong medicine.

"Peace talk, are you serious?"

The minister nodded and said, "Princess Maria, she has recently reached the marriageable age."

King Ferdinand VI of Spain immediately looked at the minister, but frowned and said: "But, I have intentionally betrothed little Maria to King Sardinia!"

The minister shook his head, "King Sardin has not agreed to this."

"But my opinion is to betroth the princess to King Sardinia!" King Ferdinand VI of Spain was a little annoyed.

"But the princess is gone. If we still betroth the princess to them, we will not be able to explain to King Sardin now. Your Majesty, you will break your promise!" The minister shrugged.

"You!" Ferdinand VI was furious, but he had to say that what the minister said made sense.

The minister still said slowly to himself: "And Sardinia and his small territory next to France are actually not as important to us as we imagined. On the contrary, if the White Iron Pirates are allowed to continue to develop like this, Our overseas territories will be eaten away by them little by little."

"Your Majesty, you should know that they have such abilities. They are still expanding rapidly, while Spain is gradually sinking into the valley like the sun. We don't have so much energy and money to compete with them."

"Just a war of succession to the throne has dragged us into a quagmire, and Spain is no longer as strong as it used to be. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Spanish King Ferdinand VI's chest heaved. To be honest, as a newly promoted king, he really couldn't hold back his breath.

"But this is a naked humiliation. Not only will we lose our land, but I will also lose my sister, right, you mean it!" the king yelled at his minister.

Another minister next to him lowered his head to face the king's reprimand, they did not dare to speak back easily.

After the Spanish king scolded for a long time.

They said: "Your Majesty, please consider it!"

"Think about it, think about it! Not only will I lose my land, but I will also lose my sister, and marry her to a despicable and dirty pirate, do you mean that!"

Facing the current King of Spain, Ferdinand VI, the ministers are actually very helpless.

Ferdinand VI inherited a policy of neutrality in the conflict between France and England, and rejected any subsequent proposals and temptations to declare war on it.

His life was peaceful and modest, but he was incapable of taking decisive action. He is known in history as a learned king, and shooting and music were his pleasures.

However, Spain did not benefit from the end of the War of Austrian Succession when he ascended the throne, and even his mental state after that was not very good.

He has been king for no more than ten years, and everything is so cruel.

Of course, he is not very clear about all this now, and he even hopes to cooperate with the Portuguese to form a double-team against the White Iron Pirates in South America.

But he absolutely didn't know that the Portuguese had deeply understood the great influence that the Iron Pirates had over them.

If other countries still have the mind to fight the White Iron Pirates, then Portugal has no mind at all.

As the closest colonial country in Colombia, Venezuela and other regions, Portugal is too aware of the strength of this gang of ferocious white iron pirates.

Those jackal-like fighters who screamed for territory, women, rights, and military exploits were definitely not what the Portuguese were willing to offend and face.

As the Portuguese, they don't have the slightest thought, let alone provoke their upper body. It is extremely stupid to recruit these pirates to plunder the most fertile land they occupy.

The Portuguese would not be stupid enough to do this kind of thing with the White Iron Pirates.

You must know that their route is directly stuck in the hands of these pirates. Once the war starts, Brazil will immediately lose contact with Portugal.

This group of guys will not hesitate to annex Brazil, even though Brazil is a huge pumpkin-like region in the eyes of other countries.

After the White Iron Pirates swallowed it, they would definitely suffer from indigestion, but the Portuguese knew that there was no such thing.

As long as they are given an excuse, not only will this group of pirates not suffer from indigestion, but they will also have a lot of trouble in Portugal.

In Colombia and Venezuela, the term emancipation is very popular. The slaves in the port of Portugal and the black slaves in the plantations are now a little bit ready to move.

Many people brought them news from afar. After being liberated, they can get the land, they can get freedom, and they can re-believe in their gods.

This is simply bad news for the colonists. Portugal doesn't want one day when the flag of the white iron pirates crosses its territory, those ordinary and honest guys on its own territory suddenly jump up and cut their own throats with knives.

The word equality is used a lot among the tin corsairs, as is the word liberation.

This is an important factor in the population surge of the White Iron Pirates.

Zeng Yunfeng didn't do it to beat his employees by painting big cakes.

In the past, a group of beggars who could not eat enough and even went to the streets to beg could be fooled into fighting the national war.

Today, this group of pirates is no exception, a great and promising blueprint is in front of them.

Zeng Yunfeng sprinkled everything in front of them like a full banquet. When they were dumbfounded, when Zeng Yunfeng tentatively asked them if they would like to enjoy this feast with him, almost no one would refuse.

But now, they are on the way to eat this big meal, and they can already smell the wonderful taste of this big meal.

From time to time, Zeng Yunfeng still gave them some soup on the way to the big meal. After drinking the delicious soup, they firmly believed in this rich meal, and they were already hungry and thirsty.

Whoever prevents them from eating this big meal will make life difficult for them and kill them.

Therefore, the Portuguese didn't have the slightest intention to provoke the White Iron Pirates at this time, and they were even afraid of getting even the slightest bit of contamination.

Not to mention that the current Spanish King Ferdinand VI wrote to them, even if he sent them a letter of credence.

The Portuguese will not be fooled either. Ferdinand VI himself is not a very wise monarch, so it is better to count on himself than to count on him.

And more recently, because of the new accession of his king to the throne, Spain has clashed with certain colonies of Portugal on the Rio de la Plata.

In this case, Portugal will not cooperate with this so-called king of Spain, which is simply impossible.

Although they are related to King Ferdinand VI.

Ferdinand VI obtained Barbara, the daughter of King John V of Portugal, but even so, Portugal did not intend to help.
