Zhu Jingyuan looked at the representatives of Spain and Portugal.

The two British representatives also looked over at the same time.

If the Dutch are not stopped, then the Spaniards must be stopped.

Guyana can barely be surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, but the Antilles must not be surrendered.

Prime Minister Peter has already reacted. He no longer wants to confront Zhu Jingyuan, but directly tells the Spanish Prime Minister and the prince:

"You must not give up the Antilles, otherwise your route to New Spain (Mexico) will be completely controlled by the Ming Dynasty!"

Spanish Prime Minister Manuel thinks so too:

"Yes, His Highness Prince Dashi, we cannot give up on the Antilles."

Zhu Jingyuan was not surprised and immediately changed direction:

"What about replacing the Greater Antilles with Texas? This will ensure that your route will not be interfered by the Ming Dynasty."

The Spanish representative grinned after hearing this. This big food king was really talking nonsense.

The Texas area at this time was larger than Texas in the United States in later generations, and its east side extended to the shores of the Honey River.

The northern part has no specific boundaries and is integrated with the entire Louisiana region.

And going north from Texas is the historical Louisiana region, the area between the west bank of the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains.

It is now a disputed area between the Ming Dynasty and the West, Britain and France.

If Spain handed over the Texas region to the Ming Dynasty, it would completely isolate this disputed area from the Spanish colony.

This is tantamount to allowing New Spain to completely give up the fight for this disputed area.

Of course Spain cannot accept it.

Spanish Prime Minister Manuel shook his head and said:

"This is even more impossible. Even if Spain accepts it, the British will not accept it."

Across the Honey River from what is now Texas is the British American Colony.

Texas was given to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty's colonies were across the river from the British, much closer than the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico.

When the British Prime Minister heard what the Spanish Prime Minister said, he agreed without hesitation:

"Yes, Texas cannot be handed over to Ming."

Zhu Jingyuan nodded slightly:

"Then the question is, how do you Spaniards plan to end this war?

"Tell yourselves, what price can Spain pay?

"We will evaluate and give a reasonable truce period.

"If you can't decide, then it's better to just call a truce on the front."

At this moment, Manuel suddenly became a little stunned.

Subconsciously, he seemed to have watched Holland exit easily, so he relaxed.

Daming's requirements are not so easy to meet.

Since the war was theoretically initiated by the countries of the Anti-Ming Alliance, the peace talks were also initiated by Taixi, which had already been established as a practice in previous negotiations.

All countries in the Anti-Ming Alliance must pay a sufficient price for the armistice.

In particular, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and Lucia were the countries that originally signed an armistice agreement with the Ming Dynasty.

Under the nervous gaze of the British, Manuel reassessed the situation:

"You can give up the Yinzhou area south of Panama..."

Zhu Jingyuan immediately laughed:

"Do you realize now that my request is not excessive at all?"

Manuel's expression has become very ugly.

This period of time was originally the era when the Nanyinzhou independence movement was rising.

Historically, it was the news of American independence and the French Revolution that inspired the courage of Latin American rebels.

Then the Napoleonic Wars shattered the European order, especially directly subverting the Spanish royal family, giving Latin American countries a chance to become independent.

In this world, it is the continuous world war between the Ming Dynasty and the anti-Ming alliance that gives opportunities to the rebels and careerists in Yinzhou.

In this world, Spain and Portugal have far more control over Nanyin than they did at the same time in history.

But the historical South American liberators, Bolivar, San Martin and others, Pushkins and others also learned the experience of rebellion from the history of the Ming Dynasty.

They first gathered young people who were equally ambitious, secretly accumulated strength, and then launched an armed uprising.

First, they learned from Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, and started to engage in roving warfare and mobile warfare. The size of the rebel army grew rapidly like a snowball.

They also summarized the lessons from Li Zicheng's failure and referred to Zhu Yuanzhang's successful experience.

When the armed forces develop to a certain scale, they will negotiate peace with more ambitious local officials and the bourgeoisie.

Absorb them into the team and establish your own court and system.

San Martin was founded in the central part of the Brazilian plateau, north of the Ming Dynasty’s Xintianfu Imperial Village and west of the Portuguese Brazilian colony.

Saint Martin proclaimed himself king, and the name of the country was directly called the Kingdom of Saint Martin.

Saint Martin took the lead, and other rebels followed suit.

O'Higgins established the Kingdom of Pushkins in southern Peru, behind the Andes Mountains.

On the Mexican plateau in Northern Yinzhou, the rebel army led by Indalgo, who was born in the church, established a theocratic Holy Mexican Kingdom.

The young Bolivar can be regarded as a rising star in the rebel army, but he is developing and growing very quickly.

He established the Kingdom of Bolivar in the northern Andes, in the middle of Spain's Viceroyalty of New Granada, and later in Colombia.

I have been leading troops in battles, and also seeking to join forces with other countries to overthrow the colonial rule of Spain, Portugal, and Ming Dynasty.

Bolivar went south to cooperate with San Martin last year in an attempt to seize the land of New Tianfu from the Ming Dynasty, but did not achieve any results.

This battle was also classified as a raid by the Ming Dynasty.

Although the Xintianfu Imperial Palace of the Ming Dynasty has been harassed by them, the impact is relatively small.

Because the situation in Xintianfu Imperial Village is more stable.

The immigrants in Xintianfu Huangzhuang are basically from the Ming Dynasty, and the original Thai and Western immigrants were driven to Spanish and Portuguese colonies.

Saint Martin and Pushkins are the descendants of the Thai and Western immigrants who were driven out of the Ming Dynasty colony.

The environment of Xintianfu is really the land of abundance for the farmers of the Ming Dynasty.

Originally the area was sparsely populated, and there was a lot of land waiting to be reclaimed, and it was all extremely fertile.

As long as we farm here honestly, our whole family will be able to have enough food and clothing.

I was too busy having children and had no motivation to rebel.

Instead, a large number of young people will join the army to seize more land on the northern border and resist the harassment of white ghost bandits.

This led to the fact that the main body of rogue bandits was originally Western Yi.

Xiyi was originally discriminated against by the people of the Ming Dynasty. The key was that the image of the two sides was very different, and the other side could not hide it in Xintianfu.

Therefore, the places where bandits caused the most serious troubles were basically in the colonies of Spain and Portugal.

In addition to several kingdoms owned by Saint Martin and others, other native-born Thai rebels also established more than a dozen large and small dukes and counts.

After these new monarchs each had their own bases, they began to expand wildly, sending troops to attack cities and plunder lands.

From Mexico to Peru, from Brazil and New Grenada, most of the Yinzhou region is filled with smoke, and the era of war between princes is about to come.

The main forces of Spain and Portugal were resisting the Ming Dynasty's attack, and they could only struggle to cope with these rebels.

This is also an important reason why Spain and Portugal accepted peace negotiations and hoped to negotiate peace as soon as possible.

Spain considered giving up Peru in the South Yinzhou, or even giving up the entire South Yinzhou, and tried its best to suppress the uprising in Mexico and save New Spain.

The most valuable areas of the Peruvian Governor's Palace in Nanyinzhou, including the largest Potosi silver mine and the Chilean region, have now been occupied by the Ming Dynasty.

Although the Palace of the Governor of New Granada is still there, it is the nest of Bolivar who caused the most trouble, and it is extremely difficult to eradicate.

In this case, Zhu Jingyuan asked Manuel the price for peace talks.

Manuel didn't think much about it at the scene, and just gave the plan that there was too much planning in the first place and Nanyinzhou.

Spain is handing over the land. Whether the Ming Dynasty can suppress those uprisings and truly occupy those lands is the Ming Dynasty's own business.

Zhu Jingyuan only asked for the Antilles and the California Peninsula on this basis. This asking price is really not high.

Zhu Jingyuan's rhetorical question only exposed Manuel's plan.

Manuel looked grim for a while and considered the current situation again in his mind.

The Antilles are all islands, several times closer to mainland Spain than the Ming Dynasty.
