Chapter 364: Europe disrupts the situation?
Want to go to the battlefield? This is easy. Just as I was about to let you deal with the natives in Nanyang, I was worried that you would not go? Yinzhen laughed in his heart, but his chin raised slightly and asked proudly: "Why should I believe in your guarantee?"[.]
Angel knew that this opportunity was rare. He thought about Yinzhen's trust in Spanish soldiers so much, and immediately said: "Prince Xun, you can divide all our soldiers into two teams, four pairs or more, and if a similar situation occurs, please execute all the soldiers! This is discussed by all our officers.

Yinzhen nodded slightly. It seemed that Tianjin's shooting has scared the Spaniards. This method is good and applies to the Dutch. He pondered slightly and said, "I will give you a chance to tell me what is happening in Europe now. It's the whole of Europe, um, and Tsarist Russia. Remember, there is only one chance."
Angel and Carlos looked at each other, but they didn't expect Yinzhen to suddenly ask this question. Seeing that the two were hesitant, Yinzhen continued: "The entire Nanyang has been taken back by the Qing Navy. Van Sfur, the Dutch Governor of Batavia and Mairoting, the Spanish Governor of Manila, have both become prisoners of the Qing Navy. I want to confirm it."
Van Sfur, the Dutch Governor of Batavia, had already died in the war, and Yinzhen was just cheating on the two of them. After saying that, he quietly looked at Angel and Carlos.
When Angel's face turned pale when he heard that Manila and Batavia had fallen, he felt relieved when he thought about it. With the powerful artillery of the Qing Navy, it was really not useless to capture these two cities. After hesitation, Carlos spoke first and briefly said the situation in Europe.
In the 50th year of Kangxi, that is, Europe in 1711, it was really as Zhang Mengjiao said, fighting for the Spanish throne, to be precise, it should have been a mess.
The alliance formed by France, including Spain, Bavaria, Cologne and several other German countries, fought against the anti-French alliances such as Britain, the Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, and Prussia for the Spanish throne. The war began in 1702 and has been fighting for a full decade.
In Northern Europe, Sweden, Tsarist Russia, Denmark, Ottoman, Norway, North Germany, and Finland are also having fun. It can be said that the whole of Europe has fallen into a protracted war and is in chaos.
After listening quietly, Yinzhen was very upset. He had not learned world history well and wasted too much energy. Europe has become like this. He is still worried that Britain, the Netherlands, and Spain will come to grab the Southeast Asian War? It’s a hell of the war!
The old ghost of Louis XIV is not dead yet? Yinzhen searched hard for his poor memory. He had a deep impression of Louis XIV, the monarch who claimed to be the "Sun King" and had the longest ruler in the world in history, and who only took seven baths in his life. He could not even think deeply.
After thinking hard for a while, it still felt too blurry. Yinzhen shook his head slightly before asking in a deep voice: "How old has the Sun King been this year? How many years have he been in power?"
Carlos never expected Yinzhen to ask this question. After thinking for a moment, he said: "It is now 1712, and the great Sun King has been in power for 69 years. He is 74 years old."
Yinzhen nodded. Louis XIV reigned for 72 years. So, in three years, the Sun King will see God. When he dies, there will be no war in France, which means that the battle to inherit the Spanish throne will end in at most two years.
After fighting this protracted war, will Britain and the Netherlands join forces to come to Southeast Asia? Yinzhen turned his head slightly and pondered that this war with a very vague impression of him should eventually be defeated by France and Spain. Otherwise, Spain would definitely have been a few more years, and Britain would not have risen so quickly. If this is the case, sending troops to support France and letting this war last for a few more years. I wonder what it is?
This idea is too risky, and no one will support it. With this energy, it is better to seize territory overseas. Well, New Spain and Mexico are the best chance to start now. Take advantage of the time when European countries have no time to take care of overseas, and snatch Mexico! By the time they finish this war, America is a foregone conclusion.
He never dared to send ships to explore the route from Manila to Port Acapulco, just to be afraid of dispersing his troops. Port Acapulco is a stronghold of the Spanish. It would be useless to send merchant ships to him, but he was worried about being detained. Although he had blocked several captains and sailors from Port Acapulco, he had not been able to make a trip. Now it seems that he must land in the United States in the second half of next year.
After coming back to his senses, Yinzhen glanced at Angel, Carlos and the other two and said, "I prefer to see you in military uniforms."
Angel couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this and asked anxiously: "Prince Xun agreed to hire us?"
Yinzhen smiled and said, "Go and turn your road repairman into a soldier again, but the location has changed, not the East, but the South."
Nanyang? Angel couldn't help but be stunned. Didn't Nanyang be occupied by you? However, he didn't dare to ask about this, just staring at Yinzhen in a daze.
Yinzhen smiled and said, "Go to wipe out the indigenous people in Nanyang. This is easy to work."
Angel immediately felt relieved, bowed a long time, stood up and smiled, "This is our specialty, there is no problem."
After sending the three people away, Yinzhen looked back and saw Yinxiang frowning and pondering, and couldn't help but smile and said, "After listening to the situation in Europe, does Thirteenth Brother have any ideas?"
Yinxiang raised his head and looked at Yinzhen and said, "Can they believe what they said?"
Yinzhen nodded and said, "There is a high credibility. There are missionaries in the capital. A war that lasts ten years and covers the whole of Europe, there must be many people who know it. They dare not tell such a lie. What's more, their fate is in our hands. How dare they joke about the lives of thousands of people? Moreover, I also learned a little from the missionaries in Shanghai, so today I asked them specifically, and what they said was exactly the same."
Yinxiang nodded slightly when he heard this and said, "Since that's the case, what are the plans for Fourteen?"
Yinzhen sighed lightly and said, "We know too little about Europe, and the information is completely blocked. On the other hand, there are quite a few missionaries in the Qing Dynasty, and there are also many merchant ships every year. If they want to know the situation of the Qing Dynasty, it is easy. We must also set eyes and ears in Europe, otherwise we will suffer too much."
After pondering for a moment, Yinzhen continued: "I haven't figured out yet whether to send troops to Europe to disrupt the situation, or to directly send troops to seize the US state."
Sending troops to Europe to disrupt the situation? Yinxiang and Yinlu were stunned when they heard this. Lao Si really dared to think about it!
This is simply whimsical, forty thousand miles of expedition! What are the benefits?
