Chapter 912: The First Five-Nation Alliance Fails

The defeat of the Triple Alliance of Britain, Spain and France made the Ming army prestige and the nations feared." 『Nature'.2

The Ming army had completely captured the thirteen states of North America, as well as a large area in the middle of the Great 6 North Americans, completely cutting off the connection between the Canadian colonies in the north and the Spanish colonies in Mexico in the south.

Next, it seems that it can already be expected that the next target of the Ming army will inevitably be the French colony Canada in the north of the Thirteen States or the Spanish colony Mexico in the south of the Thirteen States.

Therefore, after the defeat of the Alliance, the most feared Ming army was undoubtedly the French army in Canada and the Spanish army in Mexico.

As for the British army, the thirteen states of North America have been lost, they do not need to face the Ming army, but they are not willing to accept the loss of the thirteen states of North America, they have been operating the thirteen states of North America for nearly a hundred years, from the first stronghold to the current huge territory of the thirteen states, it is not easy to lay down such a large, such a rich colony, how can they be so willing to be occupied by the Ming army, they are always thinking about retaking the colonies of the thirteen states from the hands of the Ming army.

-------------------------

No matter how worried the French and Spaniards in Canada were, and how unwilling the British were to lose the thirteen states of North America after the defeat, the initiative of the war was in the Ming Dynasty. In a short period of time, all countries can only guard against the attack of the Ming Dynasty.

"The richness of the thirteen states of North America is the foundation of my England's rise to become the world's hegemon, and it must be taken back! And if you want to recapture the thirteen states of North America, it is definitely not possible to rely on me England alone, and only my British, Spanish and French Triple Alliance is also not good, after all, it has already been defeated once, so if you want to defeat the Ming army, you can only form a larger five-nation alliance army, gather the strength of my five major sea powers in the Americas, and have a chance to defeat the Ming army and drive the power of the Ming Empire out of the Americas! After settling the British army under his command, the commander of the British army, Duke William Curle, immediately began to plan.

The Triple Alliance was defeated, Britain lost all the territory of the thirteen states in North America, and although the 50,000 British troops finally escaped 34,000, there was no place to stay, and the Duke of William had to ask the Spaniards to find a place to settle in Mexico.

Due to the threat of the powerful Ming army, the 34,000-strong British ** team is also a force against the Ming army, for the safety of Mexico, the Spanish governor of Mexico, Duke Tribweis, after thinking, drew a piece of land on the coast of Mexico for the British to settle down.

"That's right! Only by forming a greater alliance can we resist the invasion of the Ming Empire, drive the Ming Empire out of the Americas, and protect our colonies! "It was not only the British who had the idea of forming a five-nation alliance, but also the French and Spaniards who faced the Ming army.

In this way, under the leadership of Duke William, the other four countries were contacted.

"The army of the Ming Empire is so powerful, incredible!" At the same time as the shock, the Dutch and Portuguese in South America also felt a deep threat.

Although their Dutch and Portuguese colonies were all in South America and did not face the threat of the Ming army in North America, they were shocked by the strong combat effectiveness of the Ming army to defeat the British, French and Spanish alliances with one-third of their troops, and they were also afraid that after the British and Spanish countries lost their colonies, the Ming army would threaten their South American colonies, so the Netherlands and Portugal did not reject the idea of the five-nation alliance after receiving the invitation.

Representatives of the five countries then held discussions in Mexico City.

Time passed little by little, just when the Five Nations Alliance Army was about to complete its formation.

Contrary to the expectations of the five countries of the Americas, since the Ming army defeated the Triple Alliance and completely occupied the thirteen states of North America, it did not take advantage of the situation to attack Canada and Mexico, but fell silent, no longer made any moves, and seemed to concentrate on managing the thirteen states of North America they occupied.

One month, two months----------

When there was still no 'dangerous' move from the Ming army after two months, the five European countries on the American Big 6 breathed a sigh of relief and inevitably relaxed their vigilance.

"Won't the Ming army attack our colonies?" They couldn't help but fantasize and comfort themselves that the Ming army might only be interested in the British thirteen North American states, and would not attack their colonies further.

Such an idea is very inappropriate, because it relieved the hearts of the most nervous Canadians and Mexican Spaniards.

After the relaxation, the French and Spaniards immediately disapproved of forming a five-nation alliance to take the initiative to counterattack the Ming army.

"Why! Aren't you afraid that the Ming army will attack your colonies? Duke William, the commander of the British army, asked in shock, he didn't understand that after the Ming army occupied the thirteen states in North America, Canada and Mexico faced the threat of the Ming army, but the French and Spaniards suddenly repented at this time and no longer participated in the alliance, which was too unexpected for him.

The Marquis of Orlan, the commander of the French army, and the Duke of Tribweis, the commander of the Spanish army, looked at each other, quite embarrassed and helpless.

Fear! How could they not be afraid!

But it was because they were afraid that they didn't dare to form any Five Nations Alliance Army to take the initiative to counterattack the Ming army.

Although the French colony of Canada and the Spanish colony of Mexico were both at the forefront of facing the Ming army and were most likely to be attacked by the Ming army, the last time the Triple Alliance failed miserably, it completely demonstrated the strength of the Ming army, and the French commander Marquis d'Orland and the Spanish commander Duke Trebwes were terrified.

Their requirements are not high, as long as the Ming army does not take the initiative to provoke them, they are extremely reluctant to take the initiative to provoke the Ming army, because they know that even if they form a five-nation alliance army, they also have little chance of defeating the Ming army.

Therefore, seeing that the Ming army did not act, in order to avoid irritating the Ming army, so that the Ming army did not intend to attack their colonies, but attacked their colonies because of the stimulus, France and Spain of course tried to avoid stimulating the Ming army as much as possible, so the idea of forming a five-nation alliance to take the initiative to counterattack the Ming army, of course, they could not continue to agree.

Without the participation of France and Spain, the Dutch and Portuguese colonies in South America lost interest in participating in the alliance and taking the initiative to counterattack the Ming army.

"Nope! How can you do this! The Ming Dynasty is ambitious, although they are silent for a while, they will definitely continue to conquer more colonies, and you will not regret it then! When the commander of the British army, Duke William, learned of the thoughts of the French and Spaniards, he was extremely angry.

Can you not be angry! He also hoped to use the power of the Five-Nation Alliance to defeat the Ming army and regain their thirteen North American states in England, but now the French and Spaniards suddenly repented, so that the Dutch and Portuguese also had no intention of continuing to form an alliance, without the participation of various countries, how could the Five-Nation Alliance be formed, and once the Five-Nation Alliance failed, how could he defeat the Ming army and recapture the Thirteen States!

"You'll regret it sooner or later, I'm waiting for you to regret it!" Duke William, the commander of the British army, roared with a black face.

Of course, Duke William saw the careful thinking of various countries, but he firmly believed that the ambition of the Ming army could not be just their thirteen North American states of England, and the Ming army was silent for a while, perhaps for some other reason, but he firmly believed that the silence of the Ming army would not last longer, and now two months have passed, maybe at most another one or two months of silence, and the Ming army will launch a new operation, either attacking the Canadian colonies of France or attacking the Mexican colonies of Spain, He sat back and waited for the short-sighted French and Spaniards to regret it!

Although the Five-Power Alliance did not succeed this time due to the temporary repentance of the French and Spaniards, Duke William also did not give up. He believes in the ambition of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the Ming army makes any more moves, there will be no one to oppose the Five Nations Alliance, and this time will not be too long!
