Chapter 111: Conspiracy Fails

Macau Yan family, Yan Jianye has a big table in the living room, which is full of sumptuous delicacies, today is a big day, whether the Yan family can rise again and become the overlord of the East China Sea depends on the conspiracy of today's dinner. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although he had discussed with the Spaniards earlier, he had not fully discussed many specific details of cooperation, which was one of the main reasons why he had not launched an attack for a long time.

If you want to defeat the big ship of the Zheng family, you must be foolproof, otherwise the spirit of fighting grass may make you die without a place to be buried, as for why he did not choose the Australians, but chose the Spaniards, he has his considerations, mainly because he does not want to become a pawn of Australia.

Although the Australians are strong, with their help the odds of winning, but the closer he gets to the Australians, the more scared he feels, he is an ambitious person, let him become someone else's vassal and pawn, this is something he must not tolerate.

So he chose the cooperation of the Spaniards and the Portuguese, neither of whom had too much power in the East China Sea, and he was sure that he would not be controlled by them.

"Mr. Christie, dinner is ready for you, please." The chief butler of the Yan family stood at the door with his body bowed to greet him.

This cooperation is very important, the master told them to be absolutely respectful to the guests and not to neglect the guests, the old housekeeper is abiding by the master's arrangement.

The red-haired Spaniard was an official in Manila who was in charge of the cooperation, while the Portuguese side was in attendance by a representative of the council.

According to Yan Jianye's idea, if the two of them participate in the war, they will send a few ships at most, which will not be too much, after all, the Spaniards still have to prevent the Dutch from making a surprise attack.

"Mr. Yan, if there are no people from Australia to participate, with all due respect, your chances of winning will be very small, and it is even possible that Zheng Zhilong will win over your big backers, Australians, to deal with you together."

Cristi didn't give Yan Jianye face at all, and poured cold water on the other party as soon as he sat down, although the Spaniards could participate in this operation, he didn't think that he could completely defeat Zheng Zhilong, if he didn't have that strength, he might be directly counterattacked by the other party.

Spain has built its own colony on Dayuan Island, and it is here that there are currently the most conflicts with the Zheng family.

It's just that they hope that the Australians will participate together, after all, the Australians have a history of defeating Zheng Zhilong, which can not only boost the morale of the soldiers, but also make the Dutch dare not mess around, after all, the strength of the old Australian is still very large, and the combat power of the big iron ship is enough to withstand more than a dozen warships.

Now they listened to Yan Jianye's meaning and did not invite the other party, which made them very disappointed, if they only relied on Yan Jianye's family background to completely defeat the Zheng family, it was probably impossible.

Christie has already retreated, without the participation of Australians, they alone can only cause a little damage to Zheng Zhilong at most, and it may not be so easy to replace him.

It's just that Yan Jianye didn't expect that the other party would want the Australians to participate together, this time against Zheng Zhilong, if the Australians participated, not only would Kui expand his influence in the local area, but also might cause a consequence, that is, he himself might not be able to get rid of the control of the Australians completely.

Now I just rely on the goods provided by Australia to obtain the distribution rights in Japan, and I take the opportunity to expand my business, but if I really cooperate in depth, I am afraid it will not be so simple.

"Mr. Christie, you have been thinking too much, I don't think it will fail without the participation of Australians, you should understand that your soldiers are a group of veterans with very rich combat experience, as long as we cooperate sincerely, we will definitely be able to defeat Zheng Zhilong."

Yan Jianye, who was dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Period, regarded his strength a little high, and completely ignored that Zheng Zhilong had today's status after decades of accumulation, although the Yan family was also a hegemon on the sea before, but it has become a thing of the past after all.

The Spaniards were still more sensible, at least they didn't think they were so powerful, after all, they knew the deeds of the Perfect against pirates.

It's just that Yan Jianye doesn't seem to take the Australians too much in his eyes, thinking that he can defeat the Zheng family without them.

There are more than 100 ships in the entire Zheng family, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers alone, on the other hand, Yan Jianye has recently purchased more than a dozen new ships, plus the original sea ships are no more than 50 at most, and the number of troops is even less, less than 5,000 at most.

Although the above wins can become a good story, but the egg touches the stone This is the behavior of the second goods, the Spaniards are not stupid, just weigh the comparison to know what the final victory and defeat of this battle is, even if they are added, they may not be able to win, at most it is a draw, which does not mean anything to them.

But since there has been a previous cooperation, it is really not good to withdraw suddenly, so Christie still hopes that Yan Jianye can invite Australians to participate together, after all, the grasp is greater, and the benefits will be more, but looking at the other party's expression, it seems that there is no such plan.

Okay, Christie has already decided, Spain is just following Yan Jianye to play soy sauce, as for how much to contribute, it depends on the situation on the battlefield.

This dinner did not talk about any practical cooperation, the Spaniards had an obvious attitude, and they had already retreated, and the Portuguese were very positive, but Yan Jianye knew that their strength was not great, and they were the weakest party, but it was better to have their help than nothing.

After the others left, the old housekeeper stood aside and looked at Yan Jianye, "Master, why don't we invite the Australians to act together, I think what the Xiyi people said is good, and with their participation, I will indeed be big." ”

Although the old housekeeper is only a housekeeper of the Yan family, he often acts as Yan Jianye's think tank, and many things will be discussed with him.

Yan Jianye sighed: "How could I not know that Australia is more certain to participate in defeating the Zheng family, but once we cooperate, it will be difficult for us to completely get rid of the Australians, so I found these red-haired people to cooperate." ”

The old housekeeper sighed helplessly, in fact, he was a little anxious to launch a battle against the Zheng family at the moment, but he had reminded his master many times, but he was all rejected, Yan Jianye was eager to revitalize the Yan family, and he couldn't listen to the persuasion of others, so it would lead to the current situation, and it can be said that this conspiracy has failed.

Although the Spaniards did not explicitly say that they would withdraw, it was already clear that it would be difficult to see how much they wanted to do after the war.
