- The British affairs could not be concealed from the intelligence departments established by Zhao Hongyu in Lisbon and the Marseille Concession.
The intelligence agencies in the European concessions have always been paying attention to the vassal states of the Church Alliance and the Protestant Alliance.
Like the British, the Song Empire wanted to see turmoil in Europe.
And the longer the turmoil in Europe lasts, the more beneficial it will be for the Song Empire.
Because their experiences will be wasted in the war in Europe, and they have no time to care about other places, right?
The Song Empire can now develop urban construction in America, increase the population, and at the same time set its sights on the ocean.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When the war in Europe comes to our senses, the Song Empire, by that time, will be completely capable of changing from shotgun to cannon.
¡°It¡¯s just that the British also have this idea.
But the British were different from the Song Empire. The Song Empire was far away in the American continent and not close to Europe.
Therefore, the American Song Empire outside the country can start its own development and construction plan as it pleases, without having to consider the problems of the European vassal states at all.
But the British are different.
Compared with the Song Empire, the British had to deal with the Portuguese before they could send their fleet to Africa and use African ports as a base to plan for India and the East.
Of course, Britain can also let its warships go far away and make a wide circle on the sea to Africa.
But not only will this take time, but it will also be intercepted and defeated by the Portuguese.
Therefore, the British must defeat the Portuguese and then capture the two small islands at the mouth of the Mediterranean Sea as ports for entering Africa.
Unfortunately, the Portuguese and the French have established a cooperative relationship, so it is simply impossible for the British to deal with the Portuguese and French countries on their own.
Therefore, the most urgent thing for the British now is to drag in the coalition forces of the church princes.
The war in the Netherlands is already like this.
Neither the Protestant coalition nor the church can defeat their opponents in a short time, so the military confrontation there will continue.
However, after Portugal and France destroyed Spain, their strength skyrocketed, which is an issue that cannot be ignored.
Now that Portugal and France have just occupied Spain, the church states have every chance to defeat Portugal and France, and then restore the Spanish Empire.
¡°If they don¡¯t take action now and wait for Portugal and France to deal with all the Spanish rebels, it will be difficult to deal with it.
And the attack of the coalition forces of the church princes will also overwhelm Portugal and France.
At that time, the British can withdraw and let the fleet go to Africa to start taking over the colonial interests of the Spanish.
The coalition forces of the church princes will fight on two fronts, with the Portuguese and French forces in the west and the Protestant coalition forces in the east.
? Continental Europe is in complete chaos, and no one will pay attention to the actions of the British at all.
"It doesn't matter even if they know. Anyway, they just send an army. The British have their own ways of dealing with it.
Strictly speaking, the British plan is similar to the Song Empire's plan.
It¡¯s just that the British are more vulgar.
Because the Song Empire only wanted stability in Europe, but it had no interest in African and Indian colonies for the time being.
But the British were different. After they were kicked out of the American continent by the Song Empire, they urgently needed to find a colony to obtain benefits and ease the domestic economy. Therefore, for this purpose, they even proposed this idea to the Spanish in an alliance. .
Completely ignoring the fact that they are now teammates in the same camp.
It can be seen that the British are vulgar, shameless, and despicable since ancient times.
????????????????????????????????????????????OUT????? Outwardly they acted like gentlemen, but in their hearts they were just hooligans.
??The poor Spaniards, not only were defeated by Portugal and France, but now they are also worried about the British in the same camp.
I have to say that the Spaniards are really tragic.
For the British, Spain¡¯s own territory was occupied by Portugal and France. There was no news after the royal family fled. It can be said that the country has been subjugated.
From now on, on the maps of various countries, the Spanish Empire can no longer exist.
Therefore, it can be said that the Spanish colonies in Africa and India belong to whoever has the ability to seize them.
Rather than benefiting others in the end, it¡¯s better to benefit yourselfAs for myself.
??Besides, the British also understand this very well: strike first to gain the upper hand.
Portugal and France received intelligence from the Concession Intelligence Office of the Song Empire, relaying in detail the current actions and goals of the British, and judging the British's plans.
Both Portugal and France attach great importance to this information.
Because of the British plan, this is simply challenging their bottom line.
You said it would make sense if Britain helped the Spanish Empire to seek revenge. After all, you are in the same camp.
¡°But you British people use this as a cover to fight us on the surface. In fact, you just want to drag other people into it, and then you withdraw and take advantage. This is a bit too much.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? There¡¯s still no sign from the coalition forces of the church princes. You¡¯ve just started to provoke us at sea. This simply doesn¡¯t take us seriously.
The British in this era are far from as powerful as they would be more than a hundred years later.
At this time, the British could not even defeat the Dutch.
Only decades later, after the British defeated the Dutch, the sea coachman, did they truly confirm their status as maritime overlords, and then relied on the wealth of their many colonies to rise to the top of the world.
But in this era, due to the emergence of the Song Empire, there are also reasons why history has deviated.
Only God knows if the British can develop and rise from time to time as the historical process does.
Today¡¯s British people are actually still little shrimps in the eyes of European countries.
Although they defeated the Spanish Armada decades ago, that naval battle was filled with too much luck and coincidence.
Therefore, the European countries did not regard the British as an opponent they could take seriously.
Therefore, in the face of the British provocation at sea, Portugal and France must immediately counterattack them and give the British a taste of their power.
And with the information about the Song Empire¡¯s European concessions, Portugal and France finally understood the British¡¯s real plan. In this case, how could they not hate the British to the bone.
The intelligence analysis is very clear, and everything makes sense.
The British are so eager to jump out and use their own power to fight against the maritime authority of Portugal and France. In fact, they are not trying to defeat Portugal and France.
The British had a good plan, which was to drag the attention of Portugal and France to the Mediterranean area, leaving them no time to take care of the Spanish colonies in Africa and India.
??And for Portugal and France, the church coalition will definitely take action.
?????? Due to emotions and reasons, Spain will not let it be destroyed like this.
Therefore, the British saw the situation clearly. As long as they dragged Portugal and France to join the church coalition, they could find an excuse to get out.
As for the excuse, isn¡¯t it simple?
The British have been fighting you alone for so long, so they just need to recuperate for a while.
And as long as they withdraw, all European countries will be involved in their own wars, and they will not care about other places.
At that time, the British could not help but do whatever they wanted.
This plan is really good.
With the intelligence reminder and the clear analysis of the Song Empire¡¯s intelligence, Portugal and France also remembered the Spanish colonial interests at this time.
??It is clear that the Spanish were defeated by Portugal and France, but now you British people actually want to pick peaches and take advantage. How is this possible?
You know, now Portugal and France have to face attacks from the coalition forces of the church princes at any time.
Portugal and France will never let something like this happen.
Since you British people want to play, then I¡¯ll play with you.
After being reminded, Portugal and France quickly came into contact, and in a short period of time, they carved up all the former Spanish colonies in Africa and India on paper.
Aren¡¯t you British trying to hold us back?
We just made it impossible for you to hold on and made all your plans come to nothing!
The two countries also organized pirate fleets and issued privateering licenses, allowing the fleets to rush into the Mediterranean Sea and the waters west of Portugal.
Their target is the British and the ships of the Church Alliance Group.
Due to the relatively superior geographical location of Portugal and France, the alliance group of church princely states began to fail.
Their merchant ships were constantly attacked and they were unable to leave the ground.Zhonghai.
If you take the Northern Sea Route, you will be attacked by the Protestant coalition fleet headed by the Dutch.
It can be said that now the merchant ships of the church princes have completely lost their trade channels, and they are all tightly blocked.
On the other hand, the British are not having a hard time either.
"You think it's a privateer's warrant that only you, the British, can issue, but other countries can't issue it.
¡°And the British ships at this time were not that high in technology.
In fact, everyone has similar strengths and weaknesses, and no one is better than anyone else.
"To say that the most powerful country in this era is the Song Empire.
Therefore, the British privateers were attacked one after another by the Portuguese and French warships who responded, and suffered heavy losses.
Because the British are now facing Portugal and France alone, the British are at a very big disadvantage in terms of the number of warships.
The Portuguese-French combined fleet defeated the British fleet and retreated to the waters around the North Sea.
Then he detached some of his warships and began to go south to Africa to seize the Spanish colonies.
Faced with such a situation, the British are really angry.
But there is nothing they can do now.
Even the British didn¡¯t know how Portugal and France could see through their intentions.
Because earlier, Portugal and France focused their energy on annihilating the Spanish resistance.
In fact, how did the British know that the European Concessions of the Song Empire played a big role in this matter?
