The Spaniards, who had been forced by the Dutch to lose most of their territory, not only lost large areas of land in the Far East, but also lost large colonies in North and South America, but all this could not stop the Dutch from attacking strongly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Spain, as the empire on which the sun never sets, naturally had pride, but now they have become a joke, and even the whole of Europe knows that they have been killed by their own hillbilly rebels, which is indeed a rather humiliating thing.

But it is a shame, but it does not mean that Spain has been appointed, and the proud Spaniards, even if they have lost a large amount of land, are still one of the countries with the most colonies.

In order to save their dignity and face, the Spanish people of insight also made a lot of efforts, such as secretly uniting with the English to fight against the Dutch, or indirectly supporting pirates to rob Dutch merchant ships.

Such a small action did not bring any harm to the mighty Netherlands, but made it stronger and stronger.

Spaniards who can't figure out the key points don't know how they fell ****, maybe they don't think that there is nothing wrong with being immersed in enjoyment, but think that this should be done by themselves.

There are not many people in Spain who once had the spirit of adventure to find a new world, and the fixed route and fixed silver coin delivery allow most Spaniards to enjoy a good life without productive labor.

But this potential threat also poses a fatal danger to their decay, and Cristi, as a Spaniard who rarely has a clear mind, knows very well where Spain will go if it does not make changes, and at the same time worries about his homeland.

He was determined to change all that, so he was extremely excited when Wu Zhengdao said that he could provide military cooperation.

The Spaniards mastered the whole of the Philippines, as well as some other regions, where the land was fertile and suitable for growing food, but at this time their main cash crop was sugar cane, which could be used to refine sugar.

However, Australia needs here, needs a grain planting base, and Australia also needs sugarcane, the raw material for processing sugar, in fact, Australia has more advanced sugar technology, Spain has raw materials, if the two sides can cooperate, then it is very likely to rely on sugar to dominate the world.

"Mr. Christie, not only can we provide more advanced technology, but we also have a leading position in civilian production technology, such as sugar extraction technology, we have a complete set of production equipment, if we are interested, we can cooperate."

White sugar is not the main economic pillar of the Spaniards, Cristi is not much interested, but he is very happy to be generous to the Australians, in order to show that the Spaniards are also generous partners, he directly said that he wants to give up a piece of land in Luzon to Australia.

This decision made Wu Zhengdao and Zhou Yang a little surprised, giving away a piece of land, that is not as much as a house, what he said was obviously to give a very large piece of land to Australia as a base.

Isn't he worried about luring the wolf into the house, both of them thought so in their hearts, but for the Spaniards, they didn't think that this was a wolf lure, but a bit of a pull the Australians in to deal with the Dutch.

Although the Dutch also wanted to cooperate with the Australians, they were not as generous as the other side in offering land for sale, although perhaps they thought that now was not the time.

"Minister Wu, Manila is very welcome to any cooperation between you, so in order to facilitate the cooperation between us, we are willing to give a piece of land as your base in the Far East, which will also be conducive to the docking of your ships and the transit of goods."

Although Cristi's statement is good, but the meat that is sent to the mouth like this is probably not so delicious, and it is difficult to say whether the Spaniards are willing to give up a piece of territory just because they sold them some weapons.

So Wu Zhengdao did not agree, nor did he refuse, and finally asked people to contact the local authorities urgently.

The generosity of the Spaniards made the local officials very surprised, this is to give a big sweetness, without sending a single soldier to get an overseas colony, if you don't want it to be a little stupid.

Of course, this colony is not so easy to take, and the Spaniards must have follow-up conditions, and no one believes that they will be so generous.

Christie went back and consulted with the Governor, who laughed vigorously at Australia's surprised expression.

"No, this is the expression they should have, I promise you, the Australians must be thinking about it at this time, after all, this sweetness is too great, the Dutch have always wanted to take more land from us, but we gave it directly to the Australians, guess what they will think, they will definitely vomit blood."

"Your Excellency, you're right, but I don't think it's what they're most angry about, and what worries them the most is that we're allied with the Australians, and you know what it means for them to have an alliance with the Australians."

For the Dutch, it means that they will face a formidable opponent, which they do not want to see, and it can also give them the illusion that there is cooperation between Manila and the Australians, at least at a deeper level, if not why would they give away a piece of land to each other for nothing.

This is what Christie and the Governor of Manila are fighting, so they don't plan to prescribe follow-up conditions, they just want to give the Dutch a bowl of ecstasy soup and let them slow down their offensive on Dayuan Island.

At this time, the members of the local Australian executive committee also made a decision that they could receive the land without harming the interests of Australia, and at the same time they could also increase their support for the Spaniards, after all, the other party was more generous than the Dutch.

From the perspective of the league, a weak one in the league is better than a strong one, because you can get more benefits from him, and strong ones may not have such benefits.

So Wu Zhengdao received such a telegram, which was a telegram that asked him to act cheaply.

"Do you guess what the Spaniards will ask for in the future, whether they will ask us to attack Batavia with them." Fu Helin asked.

"It shouldn't be, I think the biggest thing is to give the other side an ecstasy soup, of course it's possible that they want to buy more weapons, but I think it's a good opportunity, and it can be a threat for the Dutch, who will offer a higher price if they want to work with us."

Zhou Yang agreed with Wu Zhengdao's comment, nodded and smiled. (To be continued.) )
