Huelva, a city in southwestern Spain, is one of the most important port cities in southern Spain. In late October, the Queen and her wife left Madrid for Huelva to prepare for the Chinese Emperor. The current Kingdom of Spain is no longer the world hegemon that occupied a large number of colonies. In recent years, Spain's overseas colonies have been almost lost. If it weren't for the monopoly of trade with the Chinese Empire, which allowed Spain to earn a lot of wealth, the Spanish government would have been unable to continue.

This time, the queen and his wife rushed to Huelva to greet the Chinese emperor, which undoubtedly showed the importance that the Kingdom of Spain attached to the Chinese Empire. As the Chinese Empire became more and more powerful, this time it wiped out hundreds of thousands of British troops in Burma, although most of them were British and Indian troops, but still shocked the Kingdom of Spain. After consulting with the cabinet, the Kingdom of Spain decided to continue to cling to the thighs of the Chinese Empire and follow behind the Chinese Empire to gain benefits. In a situation of increasing tensions, this is undoubtedly a safe approach.

The queen and her wife waited in Huelva for a few days, but the Chinese fleet was nowhere to be seen, which made the queen and her husband a little worried.

"What's going on? Didn't it say that the fleet of His Majesty the Emperor of China would arrive in Huelva today? Queen Isabella II asked. The current Queen Isabella II is only fifteen years old. From the time she was three years old, she was already the queen of the Kingdom of Spain. Of course, the affairs of the government. In the hands of the Cabinet, the current Prime Minister, the Duke of Valencia, once visited the Chinese Empire.

"Her Majesty the Queen. Maybe it's because of the delay! Said the Duke of Valencia. After all, when sailing on the sea, you can face unexpected situations at any time. Coupled with the inconvenience of communication, it is not so easy to get in touch in time.

"Will the Chinese fleet go to France?" The Queen's husband, Francisco I, asked. After all, although both the Kingdom of France and Spain were secret allies of the Chinese Empire. But France was much more powerful than the Kingdom of Spain.

"Probably not! The Minister to China, Casimiro, had already sent someone back to inform him that His Majesty the Emperor of China had promised to visit the Kingdom of Spain first. After all, our relationship with the Chinese Empire. More intimate than the French! Said the Duke of Valencia.

So the queen and her wife and the cabinet officials of the Kingdom of Spain were waiting in Huelva again. However, there was still no waiting for the Chinese fleet. Instead, he waited for Casimiro, the minister of the Kingdom of Spain to China.

"See Her Majesty the Queen!" Minister Casimiro saluted Queen Isabella II with a smile on her face.

"Your Excellency Casimiro. What happened? What about the Emperor of China? Isabella II asked. This is also a question that most people have.

"Your Majesty, two days ago, the Chinese fleet was attacked by the Portuguese fleet. However, the Portuguese fleet was simply hitting a stone with an egg and was no match for the Chinese fleet at all. The Portuguese fleet had already been wiped out. The Emperor of China was so furious that he had ordered the fleet to turn around and go to Lisbon, ready to trouble the Portuguese! Casimiro said excitedly. Among them. But he has a lot of credit.

"What? How so? Is it all true? Are the Portuguese living impatient? "Prime Minister Duke Valencia almost jumped. This news was too shocking for him. The Portuguese must have been too bold! Even if it's British. I guess I don't have the guts to do that. Besides, such acts should be condemned by all countries.

"Will the Chinese go to war with the Kingdom of Portugal? In that case, what should we do in the Kingdom of Spain? Queen Isabella II asked.

"Your Majesty, does this need to be said? As long as the Chinese Empire was willing to declare war on the Kingdom of Portugal. The Kingdom of Spain should do everything in its power to help the Chinese Empire. This will be a great opportunity for us! The Duke of Valencia said immediately. More than once, the Kingdom of Spain wanted to destroy the Kingdom of Portugal and then dominate the Iberian Peninsula. However, the Portuguese were backed by the British, and the Kingdom of Spain never dared to act rashly. This time the Portuguese had their brains in water and dared to provoke the Chinese Empire, isn't this impatience alive? The Kingdom of Spain took advantage of this opportunity to settle this long-standing enemy in one fell swoop.

"But are the Chinese capable of an expedition to Portugal?" Francisco I asked.

"Your Highness, even if the Chinese Empire does not intervene, with the strength of the Kingdom of Spain, it will not be a big problem to destroy Portugal. Our military strength, after the cooperation between Tongguò and the Chinese Empire, has become much stronger. It may not be an opponent of the British, but it will not be a problem to deal with Portugal. The British have their own Chinese to deal with, and we just need to use this opportunity to fight the Portuguese! Said the Duke of Valencia.

The Kingdom of Spain has purchased a lot of advanced weapons from the Chinese Empire over the years, from guns used by the army to naval warships, especially the navy, and Spain has purchased 12 'Xia-class' cruisers from the Chinese Empire. This made the Spanish Navy once again a powerful navy in Europe.

"Do you have any objections to Your Excellency the Prime Minister's proposal?" Queen Isabella II asked.

Almost all other high-ranking military and political officials in the Kingdom of Spain agreed with the Duke of Valencia's proposal. Everyone knows that this will be a great opportunity for the Kingdom of Spain, and if you miss it, it will be difficult to have such an opportunity in the future. Therefore, they have supported it.

On the same day, the Duke of Valencia, the Prime Minister of Spain, issued a fiercely worded warning to the Kingdom of Portugal, claiming that the shameless act of the Kingdom of Portugal in sending a fleet to assassinate the Chinese Emperor constituted a provocation against the Kingdom of Spain and the Chinese Empire. If the Chinese Empire wished, the Kingdom of Spain would launch a war of punishment against the Kingdom of Portugal, and the Kingdom of Spain would devote 200,000 troops to attack the Kingdom of Portugal.

The Kingdom of Spain could not wait for a military mobilization, which caused an uproar throughout the Western world. The grievances between the kingdoms of Spain and Portugal are well known to all. I also know that the Kingdom of Spain wants to take this opportunity to teach this neighbor a good lesson. It's just that although everyone has some disdain for this behavior of the Kingdom of Spain, after all, this matter is the fault of the Kingdom of Portugal in the first place, and they can only call on both sides to calm down and settle the dispute in a peaceful way.

The army of the Kingdom of Spain began to assemble and then marched to the border. At the same time, the navy of the Kingdom of Spain also set out from the southern ports and went to Portugal, preparing to assist the Chinese fleet in attacking Portugal. For a time, the Kingdom of Portugal was almost in a desperate situation.

"Damn the Spaniards, they're falling into the ground! They shamelessly became the servants and thugs of those yellow-skinned monkeys, do they still have the dignity of white people? Fernando II, husband of Queen Maria II of Portugal, roared wildly in the royal palace of Portugal.

Queen Maria II of Portugal and the Prime Minister of the Government, Count Tomar, looked stern and worried, and did not seem optimistic about the prospects of the Kingdom of Portugal.

"Her Majesty, Your Excellency the Prime Minister, the British have replied. They claimed that it was a conflict between the Kingdom of Portugal and the Chinese Empire, and that it was inconvenient for the British Empire to intervene. However, they have shown that they are not willing to allow the Chinese to expand their influence into Europe. Foreign Secretary da Silva said.

"Hell! These Brits are scared. But they want us to die? How is this possible! The Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Portugal, Count Tomar, was also outraged.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, what should we do now? Should the Chinese be agreed to their terms? Queen Maria II asked.

"Your Majesty, is there anything else we can do? The Chinese fleet was on standby at the mouth of the Tagus River, and the Spanish fleet was impatiently arriving. In addition, the army of the Spaniards was also being assembled. With the support of the Chinese, the Spaniards had an army more than five times the size of ours. The equipment is even more advanced than ours, and if war breaks out, it will be difficult for us to resist the Spaniards! Count Tommar said helplessly. As long as Britain does not support Portugal, they are nothing.

"Well, agree to the demands of the Chinese and cede the Azores to them. I can apologize to them on behalf of the Kingdom of Portugal! Queen Maria said. Although, for her, it is a shame. However, for the sake of the country, this can only be done.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Seeing that Queen Maria agreed, Count Tommar breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Queen Maria II would refuse, in which case war would be inevitable.

Subsequently, the Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Portugal da Silva rushed to the Chinese warship at the mouth of the Tagus River overnight to negotiate with Lin Zihao, the Foreign Minister of the Chinese Empire. After some haggling, the two countries came to an agreement.

In view of the stupidity of the Portuguese admiral Alfredo that led to the conflict between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Portugal, Queen Maria II of the Kingdom of Portugal officially apologized to the Chinese Emperor and the Chinese Empire. In addition, as an apology, the Kingdom of Portugal was willing to cede the Azores, located in the Atlantic, to the Chinese Empire. Thirdly, from now on, the Kingdom of Portugal and the Chinese Empire lifted the state of war, and the two countries returned to peace.

The conflict between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Portugal ended in this way. The Portuguese wiped out a fleet, the queen was slapped in the face, and an important overseas island was lost. And the Chinese Empire did not pay anything but consume a bunch of shells. (To be continued......)
