October 1696 AD, Chapultepec Castle, Emperor's Audience Hall, Mexico City.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, you can absolutely believe King Montezuma and Shang Fangxibohou. King Montezuma just wants to take back the land that originally belonged to us Aztecs... Isn't the Mexico City where you are now the original land?

Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztecs? You Spaniards have occupied our land in vain for more than a hundred years, and now it is time to return it. And this is also the common response of your God and our most holy will.

, if God really approves of your occupation of Aztec land and massacre of Aztecs for more than a hundred years, then how do you explain the loss of the Holy Spear and the murder of Philip, the chief exorcist of the Holy See?

What about capture and death? Emperor Leopold, you should recognize the reality. Your persistence in Mexico City is meaningless. Mexico City has been surrounded by the merchants-the Aztec army. Although your persistence

It will delay the time for the Aztecs to regain the land, but it will not change the outcome. Moreover, a long-term siege will turn Mexico City into a hell on earth. In the end, all the Spaniards will starve to death, and there will even be people eating them before they starve to death.

Human tragedy!

And we, the most holy believers, do not want such human tragedy, even though this is how you treated us Aztecs in the past! But we are humans, not animals! We just want to take back the land that belongs to our ancestors...

...We don’t want to take crazy revenge for the national tragedy that happened more than a hundred years ago, nor do we want to seize the land that originally belonged to the Mayans and Incas. We just want to take back the Aztecs who were given to us by the Holy Spirit.

The land. So we allow you to pack your bags, take everything you have plundered from the Aztec land in the past hundred years, leave safely, and return the land to us. If you are not willing to do this

If we do, we will always besiege Mexico City!

Don't think that we will run out of rations and then retreat. This is impossible. Because except for Mexico City, which is surrounded by us, all the land in the Mexica Valley has been recovered by us, and our people are in the fertile valley.

Planting corn and wheat, we will stay in the Mexica Valley and never leave!”

The person who was persuading Emperor Leopold to hand over Mexico City was King Montezuma's envoy Varzin. This man was actually a descendant of the Aztec royal family. His ancestor was the nephew of Montezuma II and was also related to Montezuma.

The king's ancestors also took refuge in Spain, so they were spared from being killed. However, his ancestors were not as valuable as King Montezuma's ancestors, so they did not mix with the Spanish nobility, but became small local aristocrats in New Spain. But they also accepted good

With his education, he can speak fluent Spanish and Latin, as well as the Nahuatl language of the Aztecs. He also learned "Business Language" in Xinchaoge. With this language talent, he

He prospered in both the Merchant State and the Aztec State, and is now the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Aztec State.

In the audience hall of Emperor Leopold, there were many ministers and dignitaries of the Spanish Empire accompanying them. All of them had sad faces. When they heard that they could leave Mexico City with the looted property, everyone inadvertently revealed their faces.

There was a hint of surprise, and then he turned his attention to Leopold, the Emperor of the Spanish Empire.

Of course, the Spanish emperor would not agree to leave in despair, and he did not believe that the Aztecs would give up revenge. There are two to three million whites or mixed-race whites in Mexico City, accounting for almost all the whites in the entire Spanish colonial empire.

, 20 to 30% of mixed-race white people! If all these people are killed, the Spanish colonial empire will be severely weakened.

In addition...the Aztecs who betrayed God were soulless non-human beings to the white people who believed in God! So how would the Aztecs who believed in the devil (holy) view the people in Mexico City?

What about white people?

Thinking of this, Emperor Leopold replied in a firm and gloomy tone: "The so-called Aztec country has long ceased to exist. The land in Mexico is the territory of the Spanish Empire. This is recognized by the entire international community.

reality, any country that tries to change this reality will become a public enemy of the entire international community...and will not succeed.

Because the emperor and soldiers of the Spanish Empire will defend their capital...and the entire Christian civilization is standing behind us, a large number of reinforcements from Europe have arrived in Cuba, and will arrive in Mexico soon.

Ka Valley. And reinforcements will continue to arrive until every intruder is overwhelmed! If you don’t want to be wiped out by us, it’s still too late to escape now. You can still leave our land now!”

"Emperor Leopold," Varzin shook his head and said loudly in Spanish, "are you living in your own fantasy? The Aztecs have regained their kingdom, and the Aztec warriors have

Mexico City is surrounded, how can you pretend it doesn't exist? And there are no continuous European reinforcements, because the Frankish Emperor Louis XIV has long given up supporting New Spain. His daughter, Countess Sophie Maggie of Texas

Si is already the wife of the Shang King!"

"Oh God, the rumors are actually true!"

"How could Louis XIV do this! How could he marry his daughter to the devil's son?"

"This is betrayal!"

"Oh God! The French have betrayed the Catholic Church once again..."

"Damn French!"

The Spanish dignitaries in the audience hall all exclaimed! However, Leopold I had not given up his fantasy yet. He shook his head and said: "Emperor Louis will not give up New Spain! He is now the leader of Christendom, there is no reason

Do this. And we also have the Legion of Eugen, the Legion of Lorraine and the Legion of Diego... These three legions together have at least 200,000 troops, and they still control most of the land in New Spain.

As soon as European reinforcements arrive, the major counterattack will begin!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Your Majesty the Emperor," Walzin shook his head and said, "You are really living in your own fantasy... Eugen von

. Savoy, Don Diego and the Duke of Lorraine cannot save you and Mexico City. Because just a few days ago, the Shang King and Sophie Princess and tens of thousands of Ming-Shang coalition forces had already arrived at the port of Acapulco

Landing! Now they are coming to the Mexica Valley, and the road from the Port of Acapulco to the Mexica Valley is clear, because the Merchant King’s messenger has arrived in the city of Turtitlan this morning!”

"No!" the Spanish Emperor roared, "This is impossible! It is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to send troops, and it is impossible for Louis to betray me..."

"My Majesty," Count Stallenberg reminded quietly from the side, "Louis XIV has betrayed you once!"

"This..." Leopold's face turned livid, "No, no, he will not betray me. I have already given up the Roman Empire to him! What else does he want?"

Count Stallenberg said with a sad face: "Maybe... he needs to make a deal with the devil and exchange New Spain for Austria?"

"No, no, this is impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."

Walzin sighed and said to the Spanish Emperor in a sympathetic tone: "Your Majesty the Emperor, the Ming-Shang coalition forces led by King Shang and Princess Su will arrive soon... and they are still

Enough cannons and rocket launchers will be brought! You will be able to see them with telescopes from Chapultepec Castle!”

He paused and glanced at the dim audience hall: "I reiterate once again that the Aztecs just want to take back the land that belongs to us. We don't want revenge or massacre. We just want to treat everyone fairly.

People! But if you choose to fight to the end, then...I guarantee that you will lose everything!

Think about it carefully, even if the Spanish Empire lost all the land north of the Sierra Madre del Sur, it still has many vast and wealthy territories, enough for you white gentlemen to continue to enjoy life, but only if you are alive!"

Yes, you can continue to be a master only if you are alive. If you die... then you will have nothing!

And as Varzin said, even if the Spanish Empire lost the land in Mexico, it would still be a world empire! Even the fiscal revenue would not be reduced too much - as long as the Tobosi silver mine increases production, it is not everything.

Already?

In addition, there are many industries that can be developed in the vast colonies of the Spanish Empire. Cuba alone has now developed three major industries, including sugar production, shipbuilding and tobacco. The output value can even be comparable to that of Spain. If the entire empire's

With all the colonies developed, what a wealthy country it would be!

The Spaniards present lowered their heads. No one knew what they were thinking.

Leopold was a rather stubborn man...or a bit stupid. He should have left Mexico City long ago. He should not even have placed the American capital of the Spanish Empire in Mexico City at all.

Consider Havana, Cuba, the capital. Because it is the first choice place for Germans to immigrate to the Americas, and it also has absolute safety.

However, Leopold chose Mexico City, a territory belonging to the native white people of New Spain, as his capital. The loyalty of the native white Spanish-speaking people in Mexico City to Leopold was quite limited.

Moreover, their long-term comfortable life has long worn away their martial spirit, and their fighting will is more than one level behind those of the German veterans in Cuba!

And after Leopold sent away the Aztec envoy Walzin, he had no way to cheer up these white men and mixed-race white men who could only act as masters, and he was not good at doing this either.

So in the next week or two, all the Spanish emperor did was pray in Chapultepec Castle, asking God to quickly send General Eugen, the Duke of Lorraine, to save Mexico City...

On October 15th, as usual, the Spanish emperor knelt in front of the icon of Jesus and muttered, sometimes praying to God for salvation, and sometimes talking endlessly about the crimes of Louis XIV - if it were not for his betrayal, the Ottomans

It was impossible to capture Vienna, and he was still the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire! When he was excited, Emperor Leopold couldn't help crying. When he was crying sadly, he suddenly heard "bang"

"With a sound, the church door that was originally closed was suddenly knocked open.

Immediately afterwards, Emperor Leopold heard bursts of noisy sounds pouring in from outside.

He had a premonition that something was not going to happen, so he quickly stopped praying, then stood up and stumbled towards the door of the church. When he arrived at the door, he found that Count Stallenberg's face was ashen, standing there panting, followed by a group of panicked people.

of the German Guards.

"Count, what happened?" As soon as Leopold's words came out, he faintly heard a series of gunshots!

"Where is the shooting? Why is it so noisy outside?" Leopold looked flustered, "Could it be that someone is rebelling?"

It turns out that these days, he has also vaguely felt that there is something wrong with the Spanish and native white people in Mexico City who do not have enough "white content", and the mixed-race white people!

"No," Earl Stallenberg shook his head in pain, "Your Majesty, this is not a rebellion, but a surrender!"

"Surrender? Surrender to whom?"

"To the Son of the Devil..." Count Stallenberg said, "Yesterday evening, the army led by the Son of the Devil entered the Mexica Valley from the south... There were tens of thousands of people!"

"From the south..." Leopold's legs and feet were messed up, and he sank straight down. Fortunately, two Guardsmen quickly helped him up, preventing him from sitting on the ground.

"Your Majesty the Emperor," Count Stallenberg said again, "this morning someone opened the gates of the outer and inner cities of Mexico City and let in the Ming-Aztec coalition forces... All

All the Spaniards have given up resistance, and only the German Guards are still holding on, but there are so many of them that we can't reach them at all!"

"Betrayal! This is betrayal! They all deserve to go to hell!" Leopold roared in despair, and then he asked Count Stallenberg, "Count, what should we do? Can we still rush out now?"

Count Starenberg shook his head in pain, "There is no way to escape... Your Majesty, I suggest you surrender to the Shang King and the Aztec King!"

"What? Surrender..." Emperor Leopold exclaimed, "No, no, I cannot surrender. I am the emperor of Spain, how can I surrender?"

Count Starenberg looked at the emperor and said with a painful look on his face: "Your Majesty, King Montezuma has already said that he will not hurt you. All he wants is the Mexica Valley! And Sophie Maggie

Jue also guarantees on behalf of King Shang... As long as Shang Kingdom gets the compensation, it can release you back to Cuba, and you can continue to be the emperor of the Spanish Empire in Cuba!"
