Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1628, Paris Agreement

Paris was bloodbathed, and hundreds of thousands of people were trafficked to Hong Kong as livestock, and then they were transported to the Golden Continent and Africa, sold to plantation owners, and turned into slaves.

However, the actions of the Spaniards and the Japanese did not end here. The warships of the two countries ran across the coasts of Western Europe, and launched fierce artillery attacks on the coastal areas, ports, and cities of England, Portugal, the Netherlands, and France. Destroy the shipyards along the coasts and rivers of these countries, and destroy all ships in sight.

Moreover, they continue to plunder people along the coast and along the river, and sell these people into slavery to fight against the pirate alliance.

From the ruins of London to the fire in Paris, from the shipyards of Rotterdam to the port of Lisbon, the Spaniards and Japanese are everywhere.

In the end, there was really no other way, and the Pirate Alliance had to send a request for peace talks to Spain and Japan.

There is no need to continue this war.

Having lost the most important sea power, the Pirate Alliance survived in name only. Without sea ships, what kind of pirates are they?
Although the French still had a strong army on land, they were pinned down on the border by the Spaniards, and they could only watch the warships of Spain and Japan wreaking havoc on the coastlines of France.

As for England and the Netherlands, they no longer have any parrying power at all. Having lost their sea power, their road power is even weaker and pitiful.

Here in England, many aristocrats who were dissatisfied with the King of England rioted again, and the Scots in the north saw the opportunity to go south to attack the English. Even the Irish wanted to join in the fun and beat the dog in the water, trying to take back the northern part of the island of Ireland. .

As for the Netherlands, it has always been ruled by the Spaniards, but the Dutch and the Spaniards look down on them, and they often fight for independence, and then they are conquered by the Spaniards, and then they fight for independence again, repeatedly, and this has been the case.

It has just been announced that it has not been long since it was separated from Spanish rule. It wanted to attack Spain by joining the Pirate Alliance, but in the end, it suffered a disastrous defeat.

Now the Spaniards are no longer saying that it is as simple as re-ruling the Netherlands. They are considering whether to sell all the Dutch to the Ming people as slaves, and then imitate the Ming people and migrate some people from the mainland of Spain.

No way, the Pirate Alliance had to bow down to Spain and Japan.

The venue for the negotiation was Paris, France. It was only when it was time for the negotiation that everyone realized that there was no longer a decent house in Paris for the negotiation.

The royal palace of Louis XII was burned down, and all the large and tall buildings that could be seen were also destroyed. Finally, an open space had to be found for negotiation.

The Duke of Colster and Dongfang Yue walked into the venue proudly as victors, and they also specially invited the Governor of Hong Kong, Jiang Liang, to come here as a witness.

"Your Excellency the Governor~"

Seeing Jiang Liang, King Louis XII of France, Thomas, the special minister to King Henry VIII of England, and Duke Louis, the special minister to King Manuel I of Portugal, all stood up.

Jiang Liang has been in Europe for many years, and has already known the kings, important ministers, and nobles of various European countries, and even communicated in letters.

As the governor of Hong Kong of the Ming Empire, he has great influence in Europe, representing the Ming Empire in every word and deed.

Now the Spaniards and the Japanese have invited him over. Once this agreement is reached, it means that it will soon spread throughout the world and be known by people all over the world.

At the same time, this also means that if they want to tear up this agreement in the future, they may have to look at the faces of the Ming people, even though the Ming people did not participate in this war.

But when the peace negotiation agreement was signed in the end, if you come here as a witness, if any party tears up the agreement, it will also make the people of Daming feel that you have no credibility at all, and the cooperation with the people of Daming will inevitably be affected in many ways in the future.

For King Louis XII of France, he just wants to delay the time with peace talks. When he recovers, he will definitely tear up the agreement without hesitation, go to war with Spain again, and get back everything he lost.

For these countries in Europe, the agreement is nothing more than toilet paper to wipe their butts. It depends on whether it is needed. When needed, it can be torn up at any time.

The so-called spirit of contract is only because few people keep their promises, so the so-called spirit of contract is emphasized.

From the king down to the ordinary people, it can be said that this is the case. It has always been their tradition to be completely shameless. As for whether to recognize the content of the contract or agreement, it depends entirely on the balance of interests.

Now that the Governor of Hong Kong of Ming Dynasty has come over, he will have a lot of worries when tearing up the treaty in the future.

"Your Majesty the King~"

"Mr. Thomas~"

"Duke Louis~"

Jiang Liang greeted people he knew with a smile on his face.

He has been in Europe for many years, and he is already getting old. Recently, he has also received a telegram from the local side of Ming Dynasty. Next year, he will leave Hong Kong and return to the mainland.

Thinking of going back this time, he may never come to Europe again in this life, and he is also a little sad. After a long time, he has a lot of affection for Europe.

"I came here today purely to see old friends. I will be transferred back to Daming next year. I may never come to Europe again. This may be the last time we meet."

Jiang Liang looked at Louis XII and the others, and could clearly see the meaning in their eyes. There was no doubt that they hoped that he could help them.

But obviously, I can't, this is not in the interests of the Ming Empire, even though I have never received less beauties from them in the past.

Hearing Jiang Liang's words, Louis XII, Thomas, Louis and others showed disappointment. If Jiang Liang was willing to help, it would still be able to play a role.

As for Duke Colster and Dongfang Yue, they smiled faintly.

I don't even look at who invited you here, how can I speak for you, if you want to talk about the relationship, the relationship between Spain, Japan and the people of Ming is better.

"This is our proposed armistice agreement. If you have no objections, sign it."

The Duke of Colster took out an armistice agreement written in multiple languages ​​and said very arrogantly.

There is no doubt about the robber spirit of the Europeans.

When they win, the victor's attitude will be very high, and his appetite will be extremely large, often wishing to swallow your bones together.

Louis XII and the others picked up the agreement and looked at it carefully.

Article [-]. France, England, Portugal, etc., as the chief culprits who provoked the war, bear all the responsibilities for this war. They need to compensate Spain for war losses of [-] million taels of silver and Japan for war losses of [-] million taels of silver. installment.

Second, France ceded Marseille and Bordeaux to Spain, England ceded Wales to Spain, and ceded Bournemouth to Japan.

"Impossible! We in France will never accept such an armistice agreement."

"This is not an armistice agreement, this is an insult to our great France!"

Just after reading the beginning, Louis XII angrily tore up the agreement.

Damn, what kind of armistice agreement is this? France is a pair and will not accept such an armistice agreement.

We were defeated at sea, we admit this, but on the road, France still needs an army of [-] strong, and if it wants to, it can also arm an army of hundreds of thousands more.

If it really comes to the point where the fish are dead and the net is broken, then I will lead hundreds of thousands of troops to fight towards Lesotho, Spain, and your warships will never be able to come on the road in Niucha.

Compensation of [-] million taels of silver for Spain and [-] million taels of silver for Japan is not afraid of killing you. Are your stomachs that big?

Furthermore, how could I get so much money out? Even if I sold all the French, it would not be worth such a huge amount.

There is also the cession of Marseille and Bordeaux to Spain. These two territories are huge and their geographical location is very important.

Not to mention that France has not reached that point, even if it really reached that point, the French will fight until the last soldier, and it is absolutely impossible to accept such a shameful treaty.

"Our England will never accept such a shameful treaty. This is not an armistice treaty, but an insult to our England~"

Thomas also said very solemnly.

If you want money, how can England still have money? The war indemnity paid by the Ming people and the Spaniards has made England breathless. Henry VII barely survived by robbing the wealth of the nobles.

Now that the lion is opening its mouth, it will be tens of millions of taels of silver at once. Even if the three countries share the burden, it will definitely not be less when it falls on England in the end. Is it possible for England to provide so much silver?
Impossible, selling England is not worth that much money.

As for ceding Wales to Spain, this is even more impossible. England itself is a big place, and Wales is considered the largest and most important place. This time it was ceded to Spain, plus Hong Kong ceded to Daming earlier, and ceded to Spain.

All parts of England are now very violent. How many places will there be left in England?
Cut a little today, cut a little tomorrow, and it's almost over.

Such an armistice agreement would never be accepted, and Henry VIII would never accept it.

"We Portugal will not accept such an armistice agreement~"

Duke Louis also said that although Portugal does not need to cede the land, Portugal cannot afford the huge war reparations.

Portugal has no overseas colonies, and maritime trade is also monopolized by the Spaniards. How can Portugal afford such a huge amount of war reparations?
"If you do not accept such a truce, then we will fight until you agree."

Duke Colster and Dongfang Yue looked at each other, smiled and said, as if they were convinced of you.

"Come then, we French will never accept such a humiliating treaty!"

Louis XII got angry, got up and left, thinking about how to defeat the Spaniards on land.
