Portugal surrendered, the Spanish Navy was almost encircled, the English Navy suffered heavy losses, and now even the Kingdom of France has surrendered, I have to say that now the West is full of sorrow, all the people are full of fear of the army of the Ming Empire, not that these countries are not elite enough, and the combat power is not strong, but because four or five countries are fighting for themselves, each in charge of their own stalls, facing the powerful Ming Empire, where are they the opponents of the Ming Empire, with the size of the Ming Empire today, the total economic volume is higher than the whole of Europe, The annual fiscal revenue is even more crushing the major Western powers, with an annual fiscal income of more than 80 million taels of silver, which is definitely the existence of the flock in this era, you know, the British Empire has entered its peak state a hundred years later, and the annual financial revenue has not reached this number.

As for the strength of various countries, the French army with the strongest army strength is only 50,000 or 60,000 people, the Dutch with the least army strength has less than 20,000 army forces, and the army of the Kingdom of England is only 30,000 or 40,000 people. Scattered across the entire Western Ocean continent and islands, facing the three towns of the Tianxiong Army with 70,000 people, they had no power to fight back at all!

The Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Kingdom of England are already dumbfounded, what should I do? War? Keep fighting? Although the naval fleet can barely support it, but this army is definitely not the opponent of the Ming army, after all, the people who can participate in the war now are the Dutch, the Spaniards and the English, the total strength of the three armies, will not exceed 60,000 people, scattered in Spain, England and the Netherlands, before the land forces of the countries hit together, they were broken by the army of the Ming Empire.

Especially the current Dutch, the most fatal, the Dutch are adjacent to France, from Paris to Amsterdam is only a few hundred miles away, and even the Tianxiong army can drive straight in, from Paris to Amsterdam, no more, just a town of Tianxiong army, the current Dutch army will absolutely not be able to parry!

Frederick was already panicking, the news of the fall of Paris and the surrender of France was really shocking, if it was a naval battle, then the Dutch would naturally not let it go, but what about the land war, the French surrendered, without the backbone, the Dutch projectile land, it was impossible to withstand the crazy offensive of the elite of the Daimyo Army......

However, the most frustrated was Bernard, he really didn't expect that from leaving Le Ravre to surrendering in France, there were only less than ten days apart, and there were still seven days in the process of marching, taking Caen and Paris, it only took two days, the country, France was lost, which was unimaginable before!

"Your Majesty, unless we are 100% sure that we can defeat the Ming fleet in front of us, otherwise, we will definitely lose this war, seventy or eighty thousand elite Ming troops, now except for the elite armies of Portugal and France, we are full of calculations, and the three countries can only make up 60,000 people, which is not the opponent of the Ming army equipped with more than 100 flowering cannons, and if we continue to fight, all our belongings will be tossed away......"

Arsus snorted.

Bernard also said worriedly: "This is not counting, even if we can suppress the fleet of the Great Ming?" Now the Spaniards have passed through the news, the exact news is that there is a Ming fleet of more than 200 warships rampaging through the Americas, Mexico has fallen, all the areas along the coast of Mexico have been occupied by the Ming army, and there are also more than 70,000 elite Ming troops in the Americas who are fighting everywhere to seize territory, we are by no means the opponent of the Ming Empire......"

"Shall we make peace? The Five Kingdoms negotiated peace with the Ming Empire at the same time? ”

Frederick said abruptly, "As long as the Ming army can retreat and keep the vitality of the West, then we can use the wealth of the colony to cheer up again in a short period of time, if we really keep fighting, even if we can repel the Ming army, the entire European continent will be completely destroyed, and then there will be a mess left, our vitality will be greatly damaged, and it will not be so easy to recover......"

"Yes, peace, peace! Negotiate reconciliation! ”

Bernard hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, now there are only the Netherlands and Spain left on the mainland, the Spaniards have been completely scared, the Dutch army is too small, and it can't withstand it, now there are only the English left, if the English agree to make peace, I think we can try to make peace with the Ming army, even if it is worth paying some price!" ”

"Come, send letters to the Spaniards and the English at once, and ask them about their intention to sue for peace!"

Amsterdam is only four or five hundred miles away from London, take a boat, you can cross the English Channel in one day, arrive in London, as for the Spaniards, it is better to do, now Felipe IV would like to negotiate peace with the Ming Empire, not to mention Spain itself, now the fleet and army of the Ming Empire are wreaking havoc in the Americas, if it continues to fight, it will not take two years, I am afraid that the Spanish and Portuguese colonies in the Americas will be eaten by the Ming Empire, this is a fatal thing!

The four countries quickly unified their opinions and were willing to negotiate peace with the Ming army and request to start negotiations, but only the English were unwilling to surrender and negotiate peace, and the protector Cromwell did not intend to negotiate peace with the Ming army because he had the English moat and his own strong fleet and battery group as the backing.

In desperation, Portugal, Spain, France and the Netherlands directly threw off the English Empire, and began peace talks with the Ming Empire in Paris, since you British are not willing to negotiate peace, then don't blame us for not playing with you, you English love to die, grandma, the most unrighteous is the British, and they have pit the Dutch, Spanish and French several times in a row, and no one wants to see them.

The plenipotentiary envoys sent by Spain, the Dutch, and the Portuguese soon arrived in Paris, and began to negotiate peace with the Ming Empire's military secretary Xu Yifan, the military secretary of Wei Guogong, the naval secretary, and the Lu Guogong cha bolt at the Palace of Versailles in Paris.

The envoys of the four countries are wilting one by one, they have lost their previous spirit, and now they are suing for peace with the Ming Empire, where is it so easy, people are under the eaves, and the knives are on their necks, so they can only do what they say......

"Mr. Emissaries,"

Xu Yifan squinted his eyes and smiled, "Duke Ben is not embarrassed by you, before officially starting negotiations with you, Duke Ben still has a trouble to solve, Lao Cha, pass the order, order Zheng Haotian and Zheng Cai, lead the main force of the fleet, carry the main force of the second and third towns, cross the English Channel, attack London, and follow them for half a month, take London, and bring me back that Cromwell!" ”
