The cooperative relationship between the Chinese Empire and France would be broken in this war, which the Empire had already anticipated. The Chinese Empire and France, for the sake of their own interests, will inevitably drift apart because of great contradictions and differences. For the sake of its own interests, the Reich will inevitably implement some plans that are beneficial to the Reich, and this will undoubtedly harm the interests of France.

For example, in the North American War, the French were ambitious and wanted to take the developed northeastern United States into their pockets. The Reich will not sit idly by and watch France grow larger in North America and will inevitably take some measures to deal with the situation. Coupled with the vastness of the North American continent, the empire will certainly not stretch the supply lines of its troops and continue to wage war against the United States for the sake of France. This will lead France to become even more hostile to the Empire.

"Lord Lin, if the French and the Americans secretly make peace, then what should we do? Without the French in check, the Americans will definitely attack us! "Jose. Morality. Salamanca was a little worried. This is also what the Spanish government is worried about.

"Even if there is no containment by the French, the Americans will not pose a threat to us in a short time. The army sent by the empire to North America is already two hundred thousand. Your country's army in North America also has 200,000. The total strength of 400,000 troops is not comparable to that of the rabble of the US military. As long as our two countries are united and cooperative, it will not be too difficult to defeat the attack of the Americans. Lin Zihao said confidently. Originally. The army that landed in North America was only 3 infantry corps and 3 marine brigades, and hundreds of thousands of American troops lost their armor and destroyed more than 400,000 enemies. Right now. The Empire has sent an additional cavalry corps and infantry corps to North America, which will greatly increase the strength of the Empire* army in North America. Coupled with the cooperation of the Spanish army, it was impossible for the United States to defeat the empire and the Kingdom of Spain.

Jose. Morality. Salamanca nodded repeatedly. He is very convinced of the great strength of the Chinese army. And the strength of the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Spain also made it impossible for the Chinese Empire to die like it did with France. As long as the Kingdom of Spain clings to the thighs of the Chinese Empire. interests in the United States, will not be harmed.

"Lord Lin, the key is the attitude of the British. If the British must help the United States. We're not in a good place! "Jose. Morality. Salamanca said. The last naval parade of the British Navy scared the Kingdom of Spain enough. The naval power of the Kingdom of Spain has developed rapidly over the years. However, there is still a huge gap compared to the restored strength of the British Navy. The strength of the British Royal Navy. Definitely more than five times the size of the navy of the Kingdom of Spain.

"British. They don't dare to actually do it. The Kingdom of Spain was an ally of the Empire. If Britain dared to persecute the Kingdom of Spain, the Empire would not sit idly by. The soldiers of the empire have been on the Sino-Indian border for a long time. If the British want to go to war, they have to be prepared to lose India! Lin Zihao said. The empire was now so powerful that it could ignore the coercion of the British. If the British had dared to attack the Empire or the Kingdom of Spain in North America, the Empire would have retaliated even more violently. India, which is under the nose of the empire, will undoubtedly be the first to be attacked by the empire.

"Lord Lin. In that case, we are relieved! "Jose. Morality. Salamanca said. The Kingdom of Spain is now one of the great powers. However, there is still a gap between it and the world's major powers such as Britain and France. This allowed them to rely only on the Chinese Empire. With the Chinese Empire as its backing, the interests of the Kingdom of Spain would not be harmed.

"Hmmm! However, His Majesty means that from now on, the Kingdom of Spain will also need to be more prepared. The Army, in particular, must be strengthened. At present, the army of the Kingdom of Spain has only 400,000 men. After deducting the 200,000 people stationed in North America, only 200,000 people remained in the country. Once the war broke out, such a small number of people would not be able to defend Spain at all. Lin Zihao continued.

"Lord Lin, you mean that the mainland of the Kingdom of Spain will be attacked?" Jose. Morality. Salamanca was amazed.

"We had to prepare for the worst. If our alliance with France breaks down and France falls to England, the Kingdom of Spain will be threatened by France. Once hundreds of thousands of French* troops crossed the Pyrenees, and the British navy blocked the coastline of the Kingdom of Spain. So, how long was the Kingdom of Spain able to hold out? Lin Zihao asked rhetorically.

"Lord Lin, when the time comes, the empire will definitely not sit idly by and watch the Spanish Kingdom be invaded!" Jose. Morality. Salamanca said.

"That's nature! However, the empire was too far away from Europe. If war broke out suddenly, it would take at least three months until the Imperial army landed in the Kingdom of Spain. For these three months, the Kingdom of Spain was free to hold on to itself. Otherwise, even if the Imperial army arrived in Spain, it would have to retreat because Spain had fallen and had no foothold. Lin Zihao said.

Jose. Morality. Salamanca nodded with a stern face, and he suddenly realized that the Kingdom of Spain was now facing a great crisis. Once the French had betrayed their former allies and turned to the British, the Kingdom of Spain had to prepare for a heavy deployment in the north. Otherwise, once the war begins, the Kingdom of Spain will pay a heavy price!

After that, Lin Zihao and Jose again. Morality. Salamanca discussed what kind of attitude the two countries should adopt at the peace conference. Jose. Morality. Salamanca immediately said that the Kingdom of Spain would follow the lead of the Chinese Empire. Such a statement made Lin Zihao very satisfied.

Lin Zihao also decided that in the negotiations of the peace conference, both the empire and Spain would take a strong attitude, demanding that the United States recognize the legitimate ownership of the land currently occupied by the empire and the Kingdom of Spain. Otherwise, the Empire and the Kingdom of Spain would not hesitate to continue the war. However, Lin Zihao believes that the Americans will definitely not stick to it. After all, this war has been going on for a year. In this war, the Americans have lost more than a million troops. Large numbers of Americans have been displaced, and the country's economy has been devastated. Even if the French had withdrawn from the war, the Americans would not have the strength to wage war against the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Spain. After all, previous wars have proven the strength of the Chinese Empire* army. Even if the U.S. military has an absolute superiority in strength, it may not be able to achieve victory. If the war is defeated again, the United States will not be far from destroying the country.

On the morning of September 10, 1948, the Imperial Foreign Minister Lin Zihao and the Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Spain, José Brown. Morality. Salamanca arrived in London, the capital of the United Kingdom, aboard the Imperial Navy's battleship 'King Wu of Zhou'.

When the battleship 'King Wu Zhou' of the Imperial Navy arrived at the mouth of the Thames, the British Royal Navy dispatched two 'Nelson-class' warships that had just been commissioned to meet the Imperial Foreign Secretary and the Foreign Secretary of the Kingdom of Spain. However, the greeting is fake, and the show of force is real.

However, the show-off of the British did not have any effect. The Imperial Navy's 'Western Zhou-class' battleships, although not rivals to the 'Nelson-class' battleships. However, the Imperial Navy's 'Eastern Zhou-class' warships were a little more powerful than the British Navy's 'Nelson-class' warships. Not to mention, the construction of the 'Qin-class' battleships that has already begun. It was not so easy for the British to overtake the Imperial Navy.

On the dock, the British Foreign Secretary, the Earl of Granville, and the Imperial Minister to the United Kingdom, Guo Songtao, and others came to greet them. The French Foreign Minister, Count Walewski, and the U.S. Secretary of State, James Bush, arrived in London first. Buchanan, but nowhere to be seen. After seeing this, the Imperial Foreign Minister Lin Zihao and the Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Spain, José. Morality. Salamanca's face suddenly became very ugly.

After all, now everyone is so good that it is still an alliance, but the French are already like this. Doesn't this mean that the alliance between China, France and Spain has broken down?

"Welcome, two distinguished guests." The British Foreign Secretary, the Earl of Granville, had a smile on his face. That smile, as if to show off, Britain has successfully dismantled the alliance between China, France and Spain.

"Your Excellency, long time no see!" Lin Zihao's face was also full of smiles.

On the dock, everyone greeted each other. Then, escorted by the Royal Guard, the carriage heads to Buckingham Palace to meet Queen Victoria.

At Buckingham Palace, Lam and Jose. Morality. Salamanca presented greetings to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, Emperor Long Yufei and Queen Isabella II of Spain. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert also thanked Lin Zihao and Jose. Morality. Salamanca, and then asked them to convey greetings to Emperor Long Yufei and Queen Isabella II of Spain.

The whole meeting, although very warm, was completely a stylized meeting.

After that, Lin Zihao and he died. Morality. Salamanca, respectively, were sent back to their respective embassies to rest. In the evening, there was also a welcome dinner hosted by the British Cabinet. The British Prime Minister, Earl Stanley, and all the Cabinet Ministers will attend the dinner to welcome the First Foreign Secretary, John Lam, and the Spanish Foreign Secretary, José. Morality. The arrival of Salamanca.

Formal talks will begin tomorrow. However, Lin Zihao knew that this meeting was destined to be full of intrigues! (To be continued......)
