After all, the strength of the Dutch is too strong, the main forces of the French and Spaniards are in Europe, and it is the advance army that comes to the land of China, and the combat effectiveness is between the first-class and second-rate, and the supply is seriously insufficient, and the strongest English Royal Cavalry Regiment is still at sea, and there are still more than 20 days before arriving in Huizhou Mansion.

Ling Jingyang asked Edmond for his opinion, Edmond heard that the Dutch were calling, and wanted to show his majesty, but he remembered that the Royal Cavalry Regiment was still floating on the sea, and if the Dutch drove straight into Huizhou from Chaozhou Mansion, it would not take three days for the troops to come to Huizhou City.

At that time, he would be like a beaten stray dog, wandering around with his tail between his legs, and he very much agreed to go to Shaozhou Mansion with Ling Jingyang to participate in the four-party joint meeting.

Because the Dutch attack was very rapid, Jin Sheng asked all forces to assemble in Qujiang City, Jin Sheng had more than 7,000 soldiers and horses in Shaozhou Prefecture, and most of the troops were stationed in Qujiang City, responsible for protecting the smooth progress of the Quartet Conference.

In order to solve the Dutch attack as soon as possible, Ling Jingyang took Edmund and others, and Du Yinxi took Anderson to Qujiang City.

Jin Sheng and Paul looked forward to it, and Du Yinxi and Anderson led the troops to Qujiang City first.

The four of them met first to decide on the place of the meeting, and Jin Sheng wanted to put the address of the meeting in the barracks, and the other three agreed.

Jin Sheng's subordinates rushed to Ling Jingyang's army, Ling Jingyang was still on the way to Shaozhou, Jin Sheng's subordinates arrived at Ling Jingyang's team and told the meeting place, but Edmund strongly objected, thinking that the Ming army camp was very dangerous, and the grenadiers were annihilated by the Ming army, and he asked for a meeting in a very safe place.

Ling Jingyang also supported Edmond for the first time, after all, there were still an unknown number of Spaniards in Qujiang City, and after Jin Shengbu got the attitude of Ling Jingyang and Edmond, he immediately rushed back to Qujiang City and gathered with Jin Sheng and others.

Because the venue of the meeting was strongly opposed by Ling Jingyang and Edmond, Jin Sheng and everyone discussed it, and finally put the meeting place in Lotus Mountain outside the city, Lotus Mountain is dozens of kilometers away from Qujiang City, and all forces recognized it, and the final meeting place was placed in Lotus Mountain.

Jin Sheng led a thousand Ming troops to deploy on the south side of Lotus Mountain, Paul led 500 Spanish pikemen to garrison on the north side, and Gao Yinxi and Anderson also led a team of more than 1,000 people to arrive at Lotus Mountain, just waiting for Ling Jingyang and Edmund to arrive.

Because Huizhou City has a long way to go to Lotus Mountain, it was not until the evening of the second day after Du Yinxi and others arrived at Lotus Mountain that everyone arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Ling Jingyang walked the official road, and the troops came to the foot of the south side of Lotus Mountain, where the Jinsheng troops were stationed, and seeing that they were all soldiers of the Ming army, Ling Jingyang and Edmund nodded, and they could rest assured that they could enter Lotus Mountain to participate in the meeting.

Anderson, Paul, Du Yinxi and Jin Sheng waited until Ling Jingyang and Edmund arrived, and hurriedly invited the people of Huizhou City to rest in the mountains, Ling Jingyang also knew that the Dutch attack was fierce, and after the army found a station, he didn't care about resting, and asked for an immediate meeting to discuss how to face the Dutch attack.

Everyone wanted to hold a meeting as soon as possible, and the Spanish governor Paul, who was in a hurry, was ready for a meeting tonight after the people from Huizhou arrived at Lotus Mountain.

An hour before the meeting, he brings

The guards quietly came to the French military camp and asked to meet Lieutenant General Anderson, the supreme commander of the French Empire in China.

Forty-five years old, Anderson was an experienced general, but also a white man with a serious sense of racial superiority, believing that only the French were the masters of the world, and that the black Africans, the Caucasians of the Middle East, and the yellow race of the Far East were all parasites of the world, and even the Spaniards and the British were only slaves of the French.

The adjutant told him that Paul, the governor of Spain, was asking for a meeting outside the door, and Anderson did not want to receive him, but at this time the Dutch were too strong to hold the head of France high, so he asked the guards to arrest Paul in, and he sat in the center of the room, and Paul came to the hall with a command knife on his shoulder, and as soon as the two met, sparks were reflected in their eyes.

Paul blamed Anderson, when the British were attacked by the Ming army, why didn't they go to Lufeng for reinforcements, and let the Ming army destroy the British grenadier regiment in Huizhou, Anderson was angry at Paul's dereliction of duty in intelligence work, and Paul's troops were closer to Huizhou Mansion, so he could lead the army to relieve Lufeng, and he could also cut off the reinforcements of the Ming army.

Neither of them gave each other a face, and the translators on both sides also had strained faces, and in the end, Paul relented and said to Anderson: "The Dutch have occupied Ganzhou Mansion, and if we don't make any action, the Dutch will think that we are easy to bully." ”

The Dutch are really too victorious, and Anderson is a little overwhelmed, but he is not afraid, with 3,000 French soldiers under his command, belonging to the French elite troops in the Central Guards Regiment, Anderson is sure to resist the attack of the Dutch, but he angered Paul, is he afraid of the Dutch?

Paul was of course afraid that the Spanish in China were only more than 4,000 people, although they were well armed and equipped, but after all, compared with the Dutch, this was not enough, so he had to lower his tone and ask Anderson to advance and retreat with him.

"The British are useless, but the British cavalry regiment is about to arrive in Guangdong, and we have so many people, how can we resist for twenty days."

"What about resisting twenty days, when France and Spain are very badly damaged, in the words of the Ming people, it is to make wedding dresses for the British."

Anderson had already thought of this, but he still didn't care, after the Dutch occupied Ganzhou Mansion, they had already secretly sent envoys to him to discuss how to divide South China, and the Dutch were only conspiring with the French, and the Spaniards were ruthlessly abandoned, Anderson's request to the Dutch was very simple, to ensure that the French ruled in Guangzhou Mansion, and the rest of the places were allowed by the Dutch to conquer the city, and the French would not express any opinion.

When Anderson led his army to Shaozhou Mansion for a meeting, Kui ordered four infantry regiments of Chaozhou Mansion to attack Huizhou Mansion, and two infantry regiments of Ganzhou Mansion attacked Huizhou Mansion from north to south.

It was precisely because of the secret agreement between Anderson and the Dutch that Anderson had the mentality of having fun with this meeting, and Paul's request to advance and retreat together made him scoff.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the Dutch soldiers are pressing the border, and with our French Guards in front, you can just hide in the back and watch the show."

The combat effectiveness of the French Guards is obvious to all, although it is the second top unit in the French combat army, but it is also tougher than the Spaniards, and Anderson's cynical attitude makes Paul

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Suddenly felt that he was playing with him, but he couldn't tear his face, since the French didn't care, Paul retreated and decided to make friends with the British, and if it was not good, he bowed to the Dutch, signed a harsh treaty with the Dutch, and ceded some of his interests in China.

He believed that the Dutch would not disobey the Pope's decree and attack the expeditionary forces of various countries in the Far East, which would only cause public anger, not to mention that there were hundreds of thousands of troops of the Prussian Empire watching the scene on the European continent, which country would dare to disobey the Pope's holy decree, and the Prussian Empire had become the Pope's gendarmerie force.

The two did not talk for more than half a sentence, and Paul returned to the barracks with a belly full of anger, and just wanted to go to the British barracks, but was told by Jin Sheng's own soldiers that the meeting was about to be held, and asked the governor to go to the top of the hill to attend the meeting.

When Paul heard this, he took a platoon of soldiers to the top of the mountain to have a meeting with him, and the three of them were already waiting at the top of the mountain, waiting for the arrival of the representatives of the three countries of Europa, the three of them exchanged views on the current situation, and Du Yinxi was very concerned about His Majesty Hongguang, although His Majesty was in the Huguang Jiangtian Army, but Jiang Tianyi's troops were not elite troops, and it was better to be in the Jiang Xuan Department in the south of Huguang.

Gu Yinxi asked Ling Jingyang's opinion on whether to mobilize Jiang Xuan's troops and horses, and ordered him to attack Jiangxi, contain some of Zheng Zhilong's troops and horses, and relieve Jiang Tianyi's pressure.

Ling Jingyang did not have a strong control over Jiang Xuan, and let Jiang Huang go to Chenzhou Mansion, but it was just to let Jiang Huang contain He Tengjiao, He Tengjiao was defeated and defected to Qu Shiyun, Jiang Huang became an outcast in Huguang, because Qu Shiyun recognized the Hongguang Imperial Court, Jiang Huang lost the meaning of containment, and could lead the army to attack Jiangxi Zhengzhilong.

However, Ling Jingyang opposed this proposal, thinking that Jiangxi not only had Zheng Zhilong's soldiers and horses, but also the Dutch, Jiang Huang's troops might be able to beat Zheng Zhilong's soldiers and horses, but if they encountered the Dutch, it would be a death, rather than this, it was better to let Jiang Hao continue to garrison Chenzhou Mansion and other places, but asked Jiang Hao to mobilize some soldiers and horses to Guangdong to reinforce the Ming army in Guangdong.

Du Yinxi and Jin Sheng felt that it made sense, agreed to listen to Jingyang, and the three talked about how to resist the Dutch, Jin Sheng thought that they could unite France, Spain, and England to attack the Dutch in Chaozhou Capital, as long as the three countries were dragged into the war, the three countries would fight and forget the Pope's holy decree.

This is the simplest trick, plug Yinxi as the head of the three, vision and strategy are higher than ordinary people, he faintly feels that the French and the Spaniards are not stunned, not easy to be fooled, before breaking with the British, because the British were defeated in the main force in Guangdong, lost the qualification to sit on an equal footing, but the Dutch are different, they have more troops, and Zheng Zhilong supports, they can be the first chair, France and the Spaniards have at least one country, will recognize the Dutch in Guangdong's status as the boss.

I have to say that Du Yinxi's guess is very accurate, although he doesn't know the French and Dutch conspiracies, he relies on his extraordinary vision to see the truth behind it from the fog.

This is the hero in history, no matter that Ling Jingyang has more history than them, in the face-to-face, Ling Jingyang is still not as good as Plug Yinxi, he also admires Plug Yinxi, it is because Plug Yinxi suspects that the Europa people are not reliable, so that Ling Jingyang becomes more and more cautious, especially in the Quadripartite meeting not long after, as a representative of Huizhou Mansion, he decided to lower his posture and sit back and see the views of other Quartet forces on the current situation, and then express his opinion.
