The first to suffer was the French colony of the West Indies, which shared the island of Hispaniola with the Spaniards!

To the east of Hispaniola, the Spanish Santo Domingo and to the west were French colonies, the island was a very wealthy sugar producer of the era!

Every year, it brings a lot of sugar benefits to France and Spain!

After the British dealt with the French army in North America, they naturally did not want to see the French still have such a rich territory in the Caribbean!

However, when the British fought with the French for North America, the army was too depleted, and the next target was mainly the Indian subcontinent, which was much larger, with a large population, and produced a variety of high-yield crops such as spices and tea!

Therefore, if the British wanted to march into the western colony of Hispaniola, the sugar-producing area of the French army, they would be overstretched, even if the British had absolute naval superiority!

In this era, it is impossible for the navy to completely block the entire island, not to mention that the French can still sell cane sugar to the Spanish kingdom next to it!

Since the blockade alone could not stop the French in the West Indies, the British simply instigated the local uprising!

The reason why the British chose this routine is mainly because the congenital conditions of Hispaniola are too good, and the class oppression is comparable to the most in the Americas!

Because sugar cultivation requires a lot of cheap labor, and the indigenous people of Hispaniola were massacred during the White Colonial War, Hispaniola is filled with a large number of black slaves, free blacks, and mulattoes!

Racial discrimination on the island of Hispaniola has been clear to the point of explicit law, as early as a few decades ago, Hispaniola proposed a strict racial division law, the first class is white, the second class is free black and mulatto, and the bottom is black slaves!

Not to mention that the lives of black slaves are incomparable to those of whites, even the free blacks and mulattoes of the second class do not have to be sentenced to pay for their lives when they are killed by whites!

One can imagine how serious the class oppression is on Hispaniola, you must know that the entire island, including the part occupied by the Spaniards, has less than one-tenth of the population of whites!

Isn't this a very good powder keg for an uprising?

The British did not expect the rebels to win, as long as they could inflict heavy losses on the French colonial army on the island!

The British, of course, looked down on slaves, and the main targets of their agitation were the free blacks and mulattoes, and in the eyes of all the white Europeans, the black slaves were just a bunch of pigs who didn't know anything, and it was just a joke to let them make a revolution......

The defeat of France in the North American colonies, together with the support and promises of the British, led to the struggle of free blacks and mulattos who were struggling with the second estate, and set off one uprising after another!

Interestingly, the leader was still a very white-skinned poor man......

There were quite a few people involved in the uprising, but in the face of the professional French colonial army, they were still vulnerable and completely suppressed, but although the size of the British army was average, they were rich!

Batch after batch of weapons were sent to the French colony of Hispaniola by the British, who had the right to dominate the sea, and a large number of unwilling second-class people, or even simply pawns sent by the British, pulled up batch after batch of rebels...... Cannon fodder!

The French colonial army suddenly became a bitter firefighter, and in the situation of successive battles, the rebels fought more and more, and the slaughter increased......

However, the rebel army supported by the British was unable to win over the largest group of black slaves because they looked down on black slaves and prevented their participation......

In the western part of Hispaniola Island across the Caribbean Sea from the Mexican occupation zone of the Han Empire, Zhao Dutian had no choice but to send the navy to the Caribbean Sea, and could only watch the British smash out an uprising game with money, and Zhao Dutian was also very interested in the sugar plantation on Hispaniola Island, after all, cane sugar was a luxury in this era!

Although the rebel army in the western part of Hispaniola did not affect the black slaves, they made the black slaves more knowledgeable, and they were more oppressed, so they naturally wanted to turn the table and obtain equal rights with the whites!

And the Viceroyalty of New Spain, with the surrender of the Viceroyalty, became a subordinate official of the Han Empire, and when the Viceroyalty of New Spain collapsed, the control of the Kingdom of Spain over the Caribbean Sea also decreased significantly!

When the main force of the Han Empire began to wage a fierce war with the Spanish and South American colonial armies in Panama, it even pulled away a lot of military strength from the Cuban and Santo Domingo territories!

After all, in the eyes of the Spaniards, the fleets of the Han Empire stayed on the west coast of North America, and there was no Panama Canal in this era.

Not to mention how much risk it has to take to play like this, it is impossible for the Kingdom of Spain to watch the fleet of the Han Empire swagger across its own waters!

There are still a lot of warships in the Kingdom of Spain!

They don't attack the coastline of North America, but they are not sure of winning the Han army of the Han Empire, not that they have no resistance!

The coast of South America is all the territory of the Spaniards, unless the sailors of the Han Empire's fleet do not have to eat, drink, Lazar, or any supplies, otherwise, bypassing South America is a fool's dream!

Therefore, the Spaniards were not at all worried that the Han Empire, which had no fleet in the Caribbean, would use troops against the two Great Commanders of the West Indies, whose troops had been transferred!

It is true that it is impossible for Zhao Dutian to bring the fleet ashore, nor for the army to swim through the Caribbean Sea, but there are hundreds of thousands of people on Hispaniola who are watching the two large classes of people above revolt and fight!

Facts have once again proved that uprisings and revolutions are contagious!
