"Now Europe is at the beginning of the Thirty Years' War, which has drawn all the countries of Europe into it, and Spain has officially been dragged down by this war." , Zhao Hongyu began to tell Wang Shan his plan.

"First of all, we want to gain the benefits of this war, and at the same time drag the Spaniards as quickly as possible, and then seek to seize their colonies in the Americas. So Portugal was a good choice, it was annexed by Spain, and if we could prop up some forces against Spain, then the Spaniards would not care about the colonies, would they? ”

Hearing this, Wang Shan took a deep look at Zhao Hongyu.

"Your Highness means to find the right forces in Portugal to support them, to give them military and economic support, and let them fight against Spain?"

Wang Shan understood what Zhao Hongyu meant.

Zhao Hongyu nodded: "On the map, the location of Portugal is good. If he rebels against Spain, although he may not win, he will be able to make Spain chaotic for a while, and what I want is to be able to make Spain chaotic, and only by chaotic can we gain greater benefits. ”

Wang Shan closed his eyes and thought about it carefully.

As Zhao Hongyu said, Portugal is geographically closest to Spain, so if Portugal messes up, it will really be enough for Spain to drink a pot.

And now the eastern countries of Europe are also frequently forming alliances against Spain, and then it will be enemies on both sides.

Anyway, historically Spain was doomed to decline, so let's do it a little earlier.

The Spanish colonies in Central America were a big fat piece of meat, and the abundance of all kinds of products was staggering.

If he can control Central America, it will be more beneficial for Zhao Hongyu.

"The Portuguese were not interested in the Spaniards, and they had a lot of resentment in their hearts, especially the Portuguese nobles. Because the Spaniards took control of the Portuguese government and appointed the Spaniards to run the government, the Portuguese nobles were defeated. ”

Zhao Hongyu said this. He pointed to the crowd of onlookers watching the battleship not far from the shore.

"See, those nobles who are no different from beggars are the ruined settlements of Portugal. They lost their land, their wealth, and their power, and you think they have a lot of resentment against the Spaniards. ”

Wang Shan smiled: "Of course it's very big, it is estimated that the Spaniards have all their thoughts." But do you think these people are reliable? We have given them support, and what can they give us in return in the end? ”

Wang Shan raised his own question, and he was interested in what benefits the Portuguese could give them.

In this world, no matter what you do, you must pay attention to interests, and who will believe in things without interests.

Even if Zhao Hongyu helped the Portuguese without asking for anything in return, the Portuguese couldn't believe them.

In this day and age, there is simply no such person who does not ask for anything in return.

"The benefits are many. The Portuguese attacked the Spaniards, so the Spaniards had to focus on Portugal for geographical reasons, and then the Spaniards would not have any mind to pay attention to the colonies, would they? ”

Zhao Hongyu took out his pocket, took out a cigarette from it, took out one and handed it to Wang Shan.

"While they are in chaos, we can attack the Spanish colonies in Central America, and Spain itself cannot give the colonies any support because of the chaos, so we can easily seize the colonies. By the time the Spaniards regained their state of affairs, it was too late for anything. ”

Yes. Colonies without native support are actually very easy to capture.

The Spanish colonies in the Caribbean were large, but Zhao Hongyu was most worried about local aid.

Without local aid, he was confident of taking Central America.

So. He was thinking of finding something to hold Spain back so that Spain could not come to the aid of the American colonies.

"Your Highness, this plan of yours has been implemented very well. I thought about it, maybe we could improve it. ”。 Wangshan's mind spun quickly, and he immediately thought of a better way.

"Oh, you tell me about it.". Zhao Hongyu looked at Wang Shan and asked.

After taking a deep breath of smoke, Wang Shan exhaled cyan smoke, and then replied: "Portugal is on the west side of Spain, and we have come to Europe anyway, so we can contact France, a country bordering Spain, and Spain is likely to cease to exist under the attack of the east and west." When the time comes, we can take over the interests of Spain and America, and Portugal and France will divide up the European territory of Spain, right? ”

Wang Shan's idea was even worse, his plan was to directly bring down Spain and cease to exist.

Zhao Hongyu thought about it and thought that he had come to this era, so it was not impossible to change the original historical process. Anyway, the current historical process has been deviated.

Aren't the Indians and Quebec all the same now?

If you think about it this way, it's not impossible for Spain to disappear.

At that time, the Portuguese and French, who had benefited from it, were busy carving up Spain proper, and they would probably not notice the Song Empire in a short time.

When everything was settled, the Portuguese and the French could not help them when they wanted to talk about the interests of Spain in Central America.

Everything speaks with strength, and Zhao Hongyu is confident that he can take advantage of the chaos to develop enough strength to protect himself.

Who let him have a super plug-in?

Therefore, he felt that Wang Shan's proposal was very feasible.

"The Moorish empire across the Mediterranean is still there, and we can fight their ideas as well. It's not hard to provide some weapons, and it's not impossible for them to make trouble for the Spaniards, right? Wang Shan looked at Zhao Hongyu with a wicked smile on his face.

Zhao Hongyu nodded: "Well, yes, this proposal of yours is an enhanced version of my plan, and it is very feasible, so you can try it." However, I don't think the Moors were used against Spain, but against Portugal and France after the partition of Spanish territory in the future. ”

Zhao Hongyu can predict that after the Portuguese and French carved up Spain, they will inevitably set their sights on those colonies in the Americas.

Then and the Song Empire demanded to inherit the interests of those colonies.

When the time comes, disputes and conflicts or something, you almost don't have to think about it to know that the Tao will happen.

Therefore, it is still a very reliable idea to find a hidden opponent for them.

In this way, Zhao Hongyu will plan to cultivate the Moors.

"Aha, do you want to find a stumbling block for Portugal and the French beforehand, I like this plan." , Wang Shan, who understood Zhao Hongyu's intentions, laughed.

"Alright, now we're all talking on paper, and we'll talk about it when we start executing it. So now that's what I think, what do you think? ”

After Zhao Hongyu waved his hand, he asked Wang Shan seriously.

Wang Shan nodded seriously: "It is completely feasible, and I am in favor of implementing this plan." Now that we've arrived in Lisbon, the port of Portugal, it's time to start looking for the right people to support it. ”

Now that this plan has been determined, Wang Shan doesn't want to delay it.

Anyway, it's good to find something to do.

"Let's meet those nobles later, and see how it goes. We're not familiar with this place for the first time, so take your time. ”

Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan walked out of the captain's room and returned to the deck.

"Are you down to business?"

Seeing Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan walking out, Sara greeted him and asked.

Zhao Hong replied with a smile: "It's all over." Then he gave Wang Shan a look, and Wang Shan retreated and walked out of the boat to the genetic soldiers on the shore. Sarah, do you have any acquaintances here? ”

Sara looked at Zhao Hongyu puzzled: "There are a few acquaintances, is there anything wrong?" ”

Zhao Hongyu was silent for a moment, and then said to Sara: "The person you know is a Portuguese nobleman, or a Spanish nobleman?" I'm going to support the Portuguese royal family, do you think it's feasible? ”

After thinking about it, Zhao Hongyu felt that it would be better to reveal it a little bit and let Sara know it, after all, they are all a family now. And Sara knows a lot more about Europe than she does, and with her help, her plans will go more smoothly.

"You're going to support the Portuguese royal family, you're not kidding."

Sara was surprised, she didn't understand that her little man had just arrived in Europe and was going to do such a big thing when he docked in a Portuguese port.

Zhao Hongyu looked at Sara seriously: "I'm not joking, I'm serious." ”

Sara stared at her big eyes and looked at Zhao Hongyu in disbelief. She asked, "Why don't you have such thoughts, do you want to invade Europe?" ”

In Sarah's mind, such a thought flashed.

Zhao Hongyu shook his head: "I don't want to invade Europe, there is an Atlantic Ocean in the middle, I don't need to do this." But I wanted the Spanish colonies in Central America, so I had that in mind. ”

Then, Zhao Hongyu told Sara about his plans and plans.

Hmm, that's crazy.

This was Sarah's idea in the first place.

"Sarah, you know the down-and-out aristocrats of Portugal, especially the Spaniards. I need people like that to come forward and organize the populace against the Spaniards, and I can give them financial and weapon support. ”

"Sarah, you're my wife now, and there's something you need to look out of. Am I doing this for the sake of the Empire? ”

Seeing Sara's stunned appearance, Zhao Hongyu said to her seriously.

Yes, he is now married to Zhao Hongyu and has become the second queen of the empire.

Then, I must be planning for the empire.

This is not wrong for his little man.

Although Queen Mary of France is a Spaniard, she did everything for France and her son.

Sara, who figured this out, suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. (To be continued.) )
