Chapter 197 Australia-West-Dutch Security Treaty

Now that an agreement has been reached, the three sides will formally sign an alliance agreement on mutual assistance and protection, which directly stipulates the status of the alliance of the three parties, as well as their unconditional support in the event of an attack, and at the same time, the internal alliances will try to resolve problems through consultation and communication.

War is only a last resort, and if it is not necessary, both sides must not use force to solve the problem, which is stipulated in the treaty, and after the signing of this treaty, it means that it will officially enter into force, and all parties must strictly abide by the provisions of the treaty.

In fact, for Australians, whether they are Dutch or Spanish, the reason why they follow Australia's advice depends entirely on its force.

Although Australia's force has not been used, they know that the other party is not weak at all, at least it is not so easy to defeat them in Haishan.

There is no doubt that the Iron Ships alone can directly challenge the entire fleet, but the other biggest problem is that they need Australian weapons.

By forming an alliance, they will receive a more favorable supply of weapons, which is a benefit given to them by the Australians, as well as a benefit as an ally.

Of course, as an ally, it is not only the benefits of being simple, but also the benefits of the port tariffs of commodity transactions.

According to the provisions of the treaty, the merchant ships of the three parties will be treated as the most favored country when entering the ports and terminals of each country, according to which they can greatly reduce costs and increase a large amount of profits, so the Dutch and Spaniards are naturally very happy.

But the most important thing is the mutual security treaty, in which one side is attacked and will be unconditionally provided with military support or military material assistance, although this treaty is only limited to Southeast Asia and does not involve the rest of the two countries.

After all, the Viceroyalty of Batavia and the Viceroyalty of Manila cannot handle the affairs of other regions on behalf of the domestic government, and they are just a regional governor, and they are on an equal footing with the governors of other regions, so they naturally cannot manage so much.

"In other words, this treaty is a comprehensive cooperation treaty in Southeast Asia, and in addition to military alliances, it also carries a certain amount of economic cooperation."

After listening to Wu Zhengdao's introduction, Li Mengshi asked, but in her opinion, Spain and the Netherlands must have no way to compare with Australia economically, and Australia's future economic development will definitely be stronger than these two regions.

Why do you say that, take the current commodity mirror with the highest foreign exchange earnings in Australia, this alone basically exceeds the economic GDP of the current two Viceroyalies, and in the future, with more and more Australian goods, how likely is it that they want to surpass Australia, basically nothing.

The economic support of these two viceroyalties was essentially dependent on trade, and how could the volume of trade be compared with the gross domestic product of an industrial country.

Australia is definitely in a leading position in the future, of course, this cooperation, Australia has also gained a lot of benefits, for the first time proposed the right to manage the land of New Guinea, this area is actually not involved in the Dutch at present, even if they know that there is such an area, they may not be able to occupy it.

Declaring this area as part of Australian territory does not mean that Australia will send troops to garrison it, but it is a sign that provides a basis for the management and development of this place in a certain period of time in the future.

Just like the Dutch, although they declared many places to belong to them, they did not really control them, and some places were even under the control of the aborigines, and the announcement in advance meant to provide a basis for the future to be queried.

This kind of thing is not only done by the Dutch, the Spaniards are the first to implement it, and they naturally have no opinion on the territory proposed by the Australians, which is not under their jurisdiction in the first place, and of course Australia declares the whole of New Zealand.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion and jealousy on the other side, Australia deliberately made certain changes to the map of New Zealand and New Guinea, so that the other party could not clearly distinguish the size of this area, of course, the main purpose of this is to fear that the other party will also have thoughts about it.

After all, watching such a piece of land being claimed by the Australians is unacceptable to the expansive Governor of Batavia, Van Dimen, who may come over under the banner of allies to get a piece of the pie.

"Economic cooperation is secondary, their main idea is military cooperation, and for them, having the military weapons that we have provided and the military alliances will help them a lot, there is no doubt about that."

Wu Zhengdao told Li Mengshi the key points of this treaty, and that the main economic cooperation must still need to be negotiated, and this treaty is just an experimental class, and the economic field will definitely need professional personnel to negotiate, and this time it is mainly an experimental version.

"Then we will have economic cooperation with them in the future, in that case, then I am relieved, but seriously, your economic experiment plan is too simple."

Regarding the agreement signed by Wu Zhengdao, Li Mengshi started her complaints, and did not give her boyfriend face at all, of course, Wu Zhengdao naturally did not care about her.

"Well, but the Dutch seem to have some opinions on this cooperation, mainly military, and they want us to work together to open the market of Daming, that is, military action."

"Knock on the door of the country, the alliance of the three countries, how is this possible, what is the meaning of our going to Daming, it is nothing more than wanting to change the future."

Li Mengshi knows very well what Australia will do in the future, and such a thing as attacking Daming will definitely not be done, saying that Australia is to save Daming in the layout, otherwise this is against the will of most people.

The Dutch had a big idea, but Wu Zhengdao also officially told them that this was impossible, Australia and the Ming Dynasty were brothers and friends, and it was impossible to attack them, and even if it was attacked, they would even help it.

This shows the meaning of Australia, and it is also correct to tell them, don't think so much, in fact, the Dutch also have concerns about attacking the Ming Dynasty, after all, Zheng Zhilong is not a vegetarian, the two sides have fought several times, and he has not occupied a little advantage, which explains everything.

So in the end, Nick said that this was just a proposal, if Australia didn't agree, they wouldn't mess around, and they would definitely not attack Daming alone, of course, he also knew that attacking Daming alone would not be of any benefit to them, and might even fail miserably.
