Zhu Hongsan heard that López wanted to return the Spanish prisoners of war by himself, how could this work, his own navy had just started, so he could do without these free instructors.

"Mr. Major General, just now you have admitted that Luzon is the inherent territory of our Ming Dynasty, then your Spanish army is an invading army, and now they are prisoners of war! However, I am magnanimous, and I did not punish them, but incorporated them into my navy to serve in the navy, which is not excessive, you must know that I pay them! Which of your European countries can do that? ”

López heard Zhu Hongsan say this, he also had nothing to say, he had contact with Spanish prisoners of war in the past month or so, and knew that their situation was good, and some people were still marrying wives and having children in China, and they were not ready to return to China. However, Spain was now in great need of manpower in Asia, and the Viceroyalty of Malacca had less than 2,000 soldiers there, and it was okay to suppress the natives, but it was no match for the Dutch and the British. There is also Malacca, where the army is all Portuguese, and now that Portugal has been annexed by Spain, they are also counted as Spanish troops, but those guys will definitely not be able to work, and it would be good if they really want to fight and join the enemy.

"Emperor Ming, how can we release those soldiers back from our country?"

Zhu Hongsan definitely can't let them go back, what should they do if they go back to their own halfway navy?

"Mr. Major General, according to my Ming law, they will serve ten years of hard labor before they can be released back to their hometown! It's been three years now, and in another seven years they'll be able to go home, so you can wait! ”

López was dumbfounded when he heard it, let alone seven years, even a year can't wait, now the Dutch have occupied Indonesia and built the city of Batavia, and one step further is the spice-rich Moluccas, which is the lifeblood of Spain in Asia, and it must not be lost.

López gritted his teeth and asked, "Then may I ask the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, can I ask the Ming Kingdom to send troops?" ”

Zhu Hongsan has made so many detours today just waiting for this sentence, although Zhu Hongsan was happy in his heart, he did not bring it out on his face, but frowned and said: "This is not good!" That's your Europeans' business, it's really not good for me to join in! You Europeans should also value peace, what can't you sit down and talk about, if it really doesn't work, let the Dutch not work? ”

Lopez couldn't help but curse in his heart when he heard Zhu Hongsan's words: Pure fart! Now that Europe has been beaten into a dog's head because of the Thirty Years' War, can it still sit down and talk?

Zhu Hongsan continued: "But it's not impossible to help you, how can I say that Mr. Major General is also my father-in-law, we are a family, helping you is helping yourself!" ”

Lopez listened to Zhu Hong's three words and wanted to help him, his heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly asked: "Emperor Mingguo, what you said is so right, Anna is my favorite daughter, for Anna's sake, I must send troops to help us!" ”

"Father-in-law, don't worry, you will definitely help! But you know that our Ming Kingdom is also fighting now, and the northern barbarians are rebelling, and I still have to deal with them, so I really don't have the troops to help you. Otherwise, when the rebellion is completed, you will definitely send a large army to help you! ”

López knew that Zhu Hongsan wanted to benefit from this, and the king of Spain had already given him the bottom line before he came, that is, it was easy to say anything about silver and territory, as long as the Ming Kingdom sent troops.

"Emperor Ming, I also know that it is not easy for you, so the cost of sending troops is paid by us, I don't know how many silver dollars the Emperor of Ming Guo needs?"

Zhu Hongsan knew that there was no shortage of silver in Spain, and that the large silver mines in South America could produce hundreds of tons of silver every year, and that a Mexican eagle dollar could only buy two old corn locally, but in China it could buy half a cow. So Zhu Hongsan didn't plan to ask for Spanish silver, what he was going to ask for was land.

In the later generations of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs there are two artifacts, one is called "since ancient times", and the other is "joint development", these two artifacts complement each other, Lao Tzu is weak when "joint development", Lao Tzu is strong is "since ancient times", some small countries in Southeast Asia have not suffered the loss of these two major artifacts. Just now, because Luzon is not far from Chinese mainland, Zhu Hongsan has used "since ancient times", and now he wants to use "joint development"!

"Mr. Major General, you and I are relatives, don't mention money or anything, I only have two conditions, one is that the ships of the Ming and Spain enjoy the same right of passage and tax exemption as their own ships in each other's colonial ports. The second is that the occupied Dutch and British colonies were jointly developed by Spain and the Ming Dynasty. ”

Although these two conditions seem to be equal, you must know that there is only one overseas colony of the Ming Dynasty, Luzon, and Spain's colonies are all over the world, Africa and America are full of Spanish colonies, and now Spain and Portugal are merged, and Spain is really an empire on which the sun never sets. The second is the same, it seems to be equal, but China lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of people, as long as the Chinese are given time, they can occupy the world only by numbers.

Although López does not understand politics, he is not a fool, he knows that as long as he agrees to these two conditions of the Ming Dynasty today, all Spanish colonies will be open to the Ming Dynasty at that time. But there is no way now, the most important spice islands are under the noses of the Dutch, and now they can't take care of much, so they can only grit their teeth and agree, get reinforcements first, and then talk about the future.

Zhu Hongsan saw that López nodded in agreement, and his heart was overjoyed, and he immediately asked people to bring pen and ink and sign the first treaty with Europe in Chinese history, the Treaty of Nanjing!

However, although Zhu Hongsan said it simply, there were only two articles, but when he officially signed the contract, Zhu Hongsan added a few more, one is that the Ming people enjoy extraterritoriality in the Spanish colony, that is, the Spanish governor has no right to intervene if he commits a crime. The second is that the Ming merchants enjoyed the same tax rate as their own people in the Spanish colonies, and their property was sacrosanct. Zhu Hongsan thought about it and added another one, which is the one that has the most far-reaching impact on future generations.

According to the historical documents of the Ming Dynasty, the Han Chinese have reached the Ural Mountains since the Tang Dynasty, and Gao Xianzhi led the army here to fight a battle of Hengros with the Arabs. Therefore, the territory of the Ming Dynasty should be bounded by the Ural Mountains, the European territory to the west, and the Ming territory to the east, which is actually Spain's recognition of the Ming Dynasty's ownership of the vast Siberia.

Anyway, there are many such historical documents in ancient China, Zhu Hongsan still remembers that there was a news in later generations, in the later Britain, three Han bones in the ancient Roman era were unearthed, and the Internet immediately had a call for "the British Isles have been an inseparable part of China since ancient times", and now Zhu Hongsan just said that the east of the Ural Mountains is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, which has been a lot more kind.

López saw the third, he knew that Russia in the north of Europe was opening east, and he heard that it had passed the Ural Mountains. However, Russia sided with the Protestant countries in the Thirty Years' War, opposing the Catholic countries led by Spain. Now adding some blockage to Russia is also something that the Spaniards like to see.

The Treaty of Nanking preceded the Treaty of Nebuchu by more than 40 years, and China had a much greater advantage. This treaty had such a far-reaching impact on future generations that even Zhu Hongsan did not expect it, and he originally thought that it would be better to leave a legal basis for future generations than to talk about "since ancient times" and "joint development" without ignoring it in the future. But what Zhu Hongsan didn't know was that China and Russia fought many times for this treaty in later generations, and countless deaths on both sides were all due to Zhu Hongsan.

The treaty was in duplicate, one was kept in Daming, and the other was to be sent to Spain, and Zhu Hongsan was in a very good mood after seeing López sign his own stinky and long name, and he was finally able to do something for future generations.

Zhu Hongsan was very happy, but Zhang Huangyan beside him really didn't understand what the emperor was doing, and now the country was in a mess, the Manchu Qing in the north plus Zhu Youlang in the west, and Zheng Chenggong under his arm were eyeing his side, why did the emperor still help these Francophiles to fight?

Zhang Huangyan, as Zhu Hongsan's senior staff and chief military aircraft of the Military Aircraft Department, of course he must fulfill his responsibility as a strategist.

"Your Majesty, now that our war is tense and our domestic troops are insufficient, why do we still want to help these Franc machine people?"

Zhu Hongsan said with a smile: "Xuanzhu, you don't know, this treaty can play a big role in the future, you can't see anything now, you will know it later!" ”

"Your Majesty, but we are fighting on two fronts, and there are really no soldiers to send!"

Zhu Hongsan now has a total of less than 200,000 troops in his hands, and it is really a bit stretched to garrison such a large territory.

Zhu Hongsan groaned: "This is a problem, Yangzhou and Wuchang can't move, and the army of Jingshi can't move, is there any movement in Guangxi?" ”

Jinyiwei's intelligence has to be summarized to the military aircraft, and Zhang Huangyan certainly knows what is going on with Zhu Youlang now!

"Back to Your Majesty, half a month ago, Jinyiwei sent information that King Gui in Guilin had summoned Li Dingguo to meet him, I don't know why? There is also Changsha's He Tengjiao Department is preparing to enter Sichuan, the Qing army in Sichuan is now in a weak position, probably He Tengjiao wants to recapture Sichuan! ”

"Zhu Youlang to see Li Dingguo?" Zhu Hongsan was not impressed by the generals in the late Ming Dynasty, except for He Renlong, who died in the battle in Shanxi, he could also remember this Li Dingguo. Li Dingguo has an amazing record of two famous kings, and Zhu Hongsan feels that it is better to be careful.

"Order Jinyi Wei to send more people, and we must find out what Li Dingguo is going to do! As for the South Seas? Let Wang Jinbao, the third division stationed in Luzon, send a regiment first, fight it first, and then talk about it if the troops are not enough! ”

In addition to Luzon Island, the Hongji Coal Mine in Annam and Yongan Prefecture in the Beibu Gulf are all under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Luzon. Wang Jinbao's third division numbered only 15,000 people, and he had to garrison the place to guard against the attack of the natives, and he also had to send men to fight the Dutch, and the manpower was really tight.

Now the strength of the army is a big problem, Zhu Hongsan occupies several provinces with a population of 50 or 60 million, and it stands to reason that there should not be a shortage of soldiers, but Zhu Hongsan is not a rogue, so can ordinary soldiers go to the battlefield without training? The 100,000 soldiers snatched from Jin Shenghuan are being trained, and it will take next year to form combat effectiveness.
