Philip II of Madrid felt like he was about to blow up.

The best part of the Netherlands, the Northern Netherlands, not only made Edward VI a governor, but also continued to rise to the rank of king, only a month apart.

This is a naked (luo) slap in the face.

The Netherlands became the traditional territory of the Habsburgs for more than 100 years, and the continuous blood transfusion for the Habsburgs established the hegemony of the Habsburgs in Europe, which was extremely important for the Spanish government, which was currently on the verge of bankruptcy.

"Go, gather all the ships, and let those savage England really try the power of the Habsburgs!"

At this moment, Philip II no longer cares that Edward VI is his brother-in-law, and he can't care about the troublesome Ottoman Empire.

As the queen, as well as the eldest princess of England, Mary. Tudor just hugged his son Charles, who was also the crown prince of Spain, and waited quietly without saying a word.

Having a choice between her brother and her husband, Mary did not hesitate to wait and wait for the final result.

She now thought in her heart that if England was defeated in the end, she would also intercede and reduce some losses for England.

Looking down and looking at her son, Mary suddenly had a strong desire in her heart to let England lose, regardless of the loss of her brother, after all, the Netherlands was so rich, it was better to leave it to her son.

At this moment, not only the Spaniards, but even the Portuguese, thought that England had a relatively small chance of winning this battle.

"Your Excellency, it seems that the provocative actions of the English have annoyed Spain, and the English are in danger!"

When Queen Catherine heard that the Spaniards were making a big move, it seemed that she wanted to teach the English a real lesson, and not to stop in moderation as before.

"It's good that the English were so excessive a while ago, and this is the punishment they deserve!"

Queen Catherine of Portugal looked at her husband's younger brother, Cardinal Archbishop Enrique, the corners of her mouth rose and said with some relief.

"You can't say that!" Archbishop Enrique frowned, without the joy he had just heard the news, and he remembered what the Englishman had said in his ear:

Spain's navy had no opponents in the whole of Europa, and only Portugal joined forces with England to subdue it a little, cooperate with each other, and get rid of the bullying of the Spaniards.

The two countries are like human teeth and lips, in winter, they rely on each other, and without lips, their teeth will be hungry and cold, and they will be hurt.

"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, although the English are barbaric and shameless, our country has some alliances with England, and we cannot break the alliance at will, which will infringe on the interests of Portugal!"

His Excellency the Archbishop's gray beard trembled, and he said in a deep voice.

"Since you think so, Bishop, then summon the envoy of England! Specifically, there is still a way to know! ”

The Queen Mother sighed, and then said softly.

"When did an envoy from England come and ask for an audience, how did I not know?" His Excellency the Archbishop was shocked in his heart, and he felt that his rights were no longer perfect.

The results speak for themselves.

The English, having spent a lot of money and money, were able to obtain the agreement of the Portuguese to abide by the covenant.

Normandy, Rouen.

Since the occupation of Normandy, the Knight of Alexandria has been the capital of the Duchy of Normandy, guarding the territory for the king and the United Kingdom.

And Edward finally declared loudly and confidently that he was the real Duke of Normandy and had all the rights in his territory.

The Governor's Palace, the handsome Lord Governor, received a message from London, and finally arrived across the sea.

"Come on, let all the officials come to the meeting!"

A hint of excitement slipped across Knight Alexander's face, as a knight, he was still not used to sitting in the office, but wanted to go to the battlefield and appreciate the excitement of blood and killing.

"Your Excellency!" (Everyone said in unison)

"Ladies and gentlemen, I also want to find out if the combat effectiveness of the 8,000 soldiers currently left behind in Normandy has been weakened?"

"Your Excellency the Governor, not at all!" Everyone said loudly again, full of momentum.

"Well, I hope what you say is true!" Alexander nodded and said, "In a few days, I'll go and see it myself!" ”

"Your Excellency the Governor, have you had any important tasks lately?" A more clever general, with a roll of his eyes, asked softly and in a mean tone.

"Of course, there have been many accidents recently, so here, everyone should have a preparation in advance!"

"What about the militia?" His Excellency the Governor turned his head again and asked the militia leader on one side.

"At present, there are 15,000 militia in Normandy, all of whom are disciplined and well-trained, and they are worthy of a war!"

Normandy could not be defended by only 8,000 soldiers, and what was needed was the help of the locals, that is, the leading party.

Otherwise, Alexander was paid half of his salary, following the level of the English soldiers.

As a result, a militia of 15,000 has been formed, and it is well trained, although it is not too good, but it is good compared to other soldiers.

"Okay, let's get ready recently, there is a big task that will be handed over to everyone, and there will be a decree when the time comes!"

20,000 men should be able to take the southern Netherlands, the whole of the Netherlands, into their arms.

In this way, it can be regarded as the real credit.

Alexander thought happily this time.

And in Portsmouth, Hawkins, who has received the attention of His Majesty the King, is supervising the crew's construction of the seagoing vessels, and by the way, get a closer look at the specific structure of the seagoing ships.

"Sir, at present, such ships are also relatively fast to produce, and a batch of ships can be harvested in about a few months, which is simple and easy!"

Although Hawkins supervised the production of the ship, he didn't know much about the progress, and he nodded when he heard that the time span was okay.

"Speed up production as soon as possible, if there is not enough manpower, you can recruit people as soon as possible, don't be stingy with money, encourage everyone to speed up!"

As soon as Hawkins remembered His Majesty's request, his head ached.

The new type of ships that have just been launched require rapid generation of strength, orderly training, and formation of combat effectiveness.

Moreover, it is necessary to supervise the production of ships, and try to produce as many ships as possible before the big war.

"Recruit, recruit, join the kingdom's navy, three pounds a month!"

"Twenty pounds for settling-in. Anyone else? ”

In the United Kingdom, there is a lot of news about pubs and restaurants, large and small.
