After hearing this, Felipe IV threw a porcelain from the Ming Dynasty to the ground on the spot: "What qualifications does the Holy Emperor from the East have to decide the sin of this king!"

With a clanging sound.

After the porcelain was broken, Felipe IV regained some sanity and continued to ask: "Tell me, what happened in Manila?"

"Our Governor Catsi was found out by the Holy Emperor of Ming because he ordered the hang of all Ming people. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty sent a fleet to occupy Manila and killed the Spaniards in the entire Luzon Island, including Manila! No living mouth left!"

The Spanish businessman replied.

"Damn it! This is a great offense to my Spanish Empire! It is a great humiliation to my Spanish Empire! I, the Spanish, have never suffered such an insult in the hands of the Orient!"

The great nobleman Juantu was furious at this time and asked Felipe IV: "His Majesty the King, we should send troops to teach these barbarians from the East a lesson!"

"No! We have just experienced the war with France. We should rest and recuperate now, and we cannot start a new war, otherwise our country will collapse because of this!"

Another great nobleman, Divick, said.

Felipe IV could not help but say: "But the problem now is that the Eastern fleet has come to us on its own initiative, and there is no question of whether we are willing to start a war."

"This is because there are misunderstandings in it. We can resolve the misunderstandings in this through negotiation! What's more, we also need trade from the East."

Dewick replied.

Felipe IV couldn't help but look at Dewick seriously and asked, "They want to capture me and capture me in their capital for trial and conviction! In your opinion, are you going to give me my favor and let me accept their judgment?!"

"His Majesty the King calms down. This is not what I mean! It means, we can first negotiate and make them give up this request."

Dewick replied.

Most of the other nobles also agreed to negotiate with the Holy Emperor fleet from the East.

Because they really don't want to bear huge taxes and start a war.

It has to be said that the Holy Emperor fleet sent by Zhu Youxiao was really the time to come, just in the whole of Europe when the Thirty Years' War was about to end.

All the European continent, all forces have been greatly reduced due to war.

Moreover, there are great conflicts between all parties.

Therefore, although Felipe IV was very angry, he had to accept the suggestions of the nobles and chose to compromise with Daming.

"We have no intention of offending your country! Our king expressed great regret for the massacre of China in Manila, and was willing to apologize and provide compensation for the matter. In addition, he would not care about your country's actions in Manila. Can you ask your country to stop the army and resume trade between the two countries?"

The envoy sent by Spanish King Felipe IV, Divik, came to Ceuta and spoke to Zhang Shousheng, the general of the Ming Dynasty who arrived here.

After hearing this, Zhang Shouyi smiled faintly and said, "This General will not accept the apology! If your Spanish nobles want to protect Spain, they will honestly give your king, let them follow us to accept the conviction, and sign relevant compensation agreements and trade agreements with us. Otherwise, this General will have to lead his troops to destroy your country!"

After hearing this, Divik was very angry and couldn't help but ask: "Why is your country so domineering? You blame our people for killing your country's people in Manila. Does your country think it's appropriate to kill our country's people in Luzon?!"

"That's right! It's supposed to be! Because they have been deprived of their right to life by the Holy Emperor! They all deserve to die!"

Zhang Shoushi replied with a smile.

Dewick couldn't help but stand up and glared at Zhang Shouyang, but couldn't say anything.

He had to admit that these Orientals were really arrogant.

"However, according to the Holy Emperor's instructions, your Spanish kingdom can continue to exist, but you must take the initiative to give your king, accept relevant compensation, and sign relevant trade agreements!"

"This is not harmful to you Spanish nobles. After signing a trade agreement, some of you can become trading partners with the Ming Dynasty officials and merchants. You can obtain many commodity agents because of your trading partners. You can process and package these goods into goods of your own country, and then use the mentality of your civilians to support their own goods and make a fortune! You can even use this mentality to sell higher pluses in your country and apply for lower tax rates to make more money."

Zhang Shousu continued.

After hearing what Zhang Shousha said, Dewick was quite moved.

Because after thirty years of war, national ideas in European countries began to emerge, Divick also believed that as long as he could get fashionable goods from the Ming Dynasty, then package them, and sell them under the banner of revitalizing his own national products, he would definitely make a lot of money.

But Divick did not agree directly. After all, if he wanted to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty, he would have to sell the king.

...

"Send the fleet and prepare for combat!"

After learning that the Ming Dynasty insisted on punishing him, Spain's King Felipe IV had to give up his fantasy of making peace with the Ming Dynasty and decided to fight against the Ming Dynasty's Holy Emperor fleet.

Zhang Shouyi also knew that if there was no war to let the Spanish ruling class know the power of the Ming Empire, these people would not have given their king easily.

Therefore, Zhang Shoushi has been preparing for a war against Spain.

To this end, Zhang Shoushi also specially negotiated further cooperation with Portugal.

The Ming Empire supported Portugal's independence, but Portugal needed to accept the global basic order convention formulated by the Ming Dynasty and jointly sent troops to Spain with the Ming Empire on the grounds that the Spanish king was massacred.

Portugal accepted the invitation of cooperation from the Ming Empire and announced the acceptance of the basic global order stipulated by the Ming Empire.

And the most important rule in this basic order is not to kill civilians.

Because Portugal needed a state to support his independence, it took the initiative to admit that killing civilians was indeed not something God would like to see, and was willing to send troops to conquer Spain with the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhang Shoushi took advantage of the opportunity of cooperation with Portugal and adopted a method of land and water to attack Spain.

Even Zhang Shoushi puts his main attack on land warfare.

Zhang Shouyao personally led 6,000 officers and soldiers of the Ming Navy Marine Corps, 5,000 Korean soldiers, 5,000 Japanese soldiers, 3,000 Ryukyu soldiers, 1,000 Annan soldiers, as well as 5,000 soldiers and horses sent by the royal royal vassal states such as Chongzhen and Hirado, totaling more than 25,000 soldiers and horses, and the eight thousand soldiers dispatched by Portugal themselves, set off from the Portuguese capital Lisbon and advanced along the Tejo River. The peak of the army pointed directly to the Spanish capital Madrid.

The remaining officers and soldiers of the Holy Emperor Fleet were led by the general instructor Zhu Youjian into the Mediterranean and advanced towards Barcelona, ​​making a trend of directing troops toward the north.
