The plot of 1495 is coming to an end.

In view of the current situation in Canada, Ferdinand decided to split the original "Canadian Province" into three provinces: Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia and Quebec, but the post of Governor General of Canada remained and was held by Fonseca, with the aim of unifying the expansion of Spain into the St. Lawrence River valley and the Great Lakes region: this region was uniquely positioned to control a very large and deep inland area with very little manpower, following the methods of the French.

October 2, 1495. This is the northern part of the New World, the Labrador Peninsula.

100 Spaniards and more than 800 Beotuks landed on the eastern coast of the peninsula. Don't be surprised, a skilful man like Cortés could command a coalition of 45,000 men to attack the Aztec Empire...... However, this is not the highest level of deception, and you still have to learn from the French, and this aspect will be discussed later.

(Previously, for the sake of the water and water chapter, the author made a big joke with the so-called cosmic tribe) - but judging from the casualty figures, for a very backward Innu tribe in Labrador, this is definitely a catastrophe, and it can be said that all the men who can fight are dead...... It's just that no one bothered with them at the time, and they were in a hurry to gain a foothold in Quebec.

Later, the colony or political entity of Newfoundland, in addition to the island of Newfoundland, included the northeastern part of the Labrador Peninsula, and its land border with Quebec on the Labrador Peninsula was determined by the British Privy Council in 1929. So this more than 400,000 square kilometers of land is the last symbol of Britain's existence on the North American continent. - As a result, until 1949, China was still the world's second largest country in terms of area, with Canada having only more than 9.5 million square kilometers of territory at that time, and 9984670 square kilometers after Newfoundland joined. Of course, a little difference in area is of little practical significance, but Newfoundland's economic and military value is significant.

Of course, later, because Quebec had been arguing with Newfoundland about the northeastern part of the Labrador Peninsula, claiming that it was part of Quebec, Newfoundland simply made a claim and changed its name to Newfoundland and Labrador in order to kill Quebec's heart, so that Quebec finally stopped.

However, Ferdinand did not give the order to expand into the Labrador Peninsula, although it is not unprofitable there, beaver skins and forest resources can still satisfy the wallet, but now there is really no need to go to the bitter cold land of the north, the cost is too high to face the resistance of the natives.

But Ferdinand naturally did not know that there would be such a funny plot, and one of the largest and strongest tribes actually committed their own death, built canoes to attack across the sea, and succeeded, and in the end five or six people fled back......

Then, Fonseca, who has a keen sense of smell, after lamenting that this world has been played badly, has set a new goal for himself, simply to destroy this big tribe, deter other small tribes, and occupy the Labrador Peninsula!

——First, he took the opportunity to expand and make profits, and secondly, in order to avenge the revenge of an arrow, he felt that he had achieved great success in the trick of deception, and he was like a fish in water in Europe, and the Governor General of Canada, who had achieved great results in Newfoundland, was brushed like this by these natives, and he couldn't bear it! Let them know why the flowers are so red!

So after consulting with the Beotuks, the Beotuk chieftain was also very angry about the invasion, because the Beotuks suffered heavy casualties, killing hundreds of people, while the Spaniards had zero casualties. The Spaniards basically just lost face, and the Beotuks did not talk about the blood feud, but also the deep hatred.

To use the basic word, because, although it was a hilarious invasion like station B, it also caused problems for the Spaniards. Originally, Fonseca received an order from Ferdinand to mobilize some Spaniards and Beotuks to excavate the Bakkens lead-zinc deposit in Newfoundland. But the Beotuks have just suffered heavy losses in personnel and materials, they have been looted by the cosmic tribes, and they have not enough to eat in winter, and the Spaniards have to provide them with cod in turn, otherwise many people will starve to death.

If it weren't for the existence of the Spaniards, a powerful military force, maybe this funny incident would have been a success. After all, Polynesians in those days could sail more than 6,000 kilometers in a canoe to New Zealand, Easter Island and even Chile......

But now, this great tribe of the Innu is certain to die.

The Spaniards, dressed in plate armor and armed with Mushtec arquebuses and spears, swords and shields, and longbows, brought a large number of indigenous cannon fodder to the peninsula, because it was a feud (although it had been defeated by the Innu), so the Beotuk people mixed old and new hatreds, and the will to fight was still very high.

As for the so-called cosmic tribes...... There aren't many men left to fight. Add to that the fact that this year's whale and cod catches have plummeted – and the boats have been wiped out by the hilarious expeditions...... Everyone was too hungry to pick up their weapons.

In the end, only a few kilometers inland, the last "elite" of a tribe of more than 300 men engaged the Spaniards near a small lake, and the Spaniards, with cannon fodder, occupied a commanding height, inflicted heavy losses on them with muskets and longbow arrows, and were besieged by a large number of Beotuks.

Soon the last resistance of the Overlord tribe of the Innu was too dead to die. The vast expanse of the northeastern Newfoundland Peninsula suddenly became terra nullius and was controlled by the Spaniards.

The next was the boring sweeping work, in which the Spaniards and Beotuks captured the tribe's young and old, and the remaining young women, who were left to fend for themselves, and the young and strong, women and children, were brought back to Newfoundland and reduced to slavery to help the mining of the Buckens lead and zinc mines in Newfoundland.

However, some of the children were left behind to be brainwashed, and some of the adult men became interpreters, guides, or messengers for the Spaniards, and in any case they were going to threaten and intimidate the small tribes of Labrador, and now I killed your eldest brother, and now the new boss has asked me to bring you a message, either obediently submit - sacrifice furs as proof, or wait to die!

Of course, the surrenderer will be rewarded with a little bit, such as glass beads, a few loads of wheat, or something......

In fact, it is autumn now, and the Spaniards will not push further into the central part of the Labrador Peninsula, but don't the local natives think that autumn and winter are terrible, and they have not seen the envoys of the people come here to demonstrate with great dignity?

So these small tribes surrendered one after another...... In this way, Spain took control of the Labrador Peninsula on the Canadian mainland, up to the fortress of Quebec at the mouth of the St. Lawrence River.

The navigator Amerigo played an important role in this special operation after leading a team to establish a stronghold in Quebec - he advanced along the coast of Labrador, bypassing the Atlantic coastline of the peninsula - and discovered Hudson Bay!

The greatest role of this Canadian inland sea is that it can obtain large quantities of fur and forest trees both along the coast and inland. Now that the tribes of Labrador have submitted to the Spaniards, Fonseca will be able to send people inland next year to fetch furs.

In later generations, it pit countless navigators to look for the Northwest Passage, and finally found that the Northwest Passage exists, but it is not what they think, and this route through the Bering Strait is very tricky......
