King James II of England has been in a very good mood recently!

Because he had embraced the thick legs of the Frank Emperor Louis early on, he now became the second shopkeeper of the North Atlantic Alliance. Although he was still a big follower internationally, relying on Louis' support, his status in China was as stable as the Alps. The Protestants who opposed him had long been settled when they saw a great emperor supporting him, and some of them were not very settled. They were also driven to the twelve states of North America to eliminate the soulless Indians there!

And his eldest daughter, Mary, who always coveted his king's throne, died a few years ago because of smallpox. Once Mary died, the ambitious consul William III of the United Republic of the Netherlands had no hope. William III and Mary had no children, so once Mary died, the Orange family was completely insulated from the British throne.

As for James' second daughter, Anne, she is a person who can give birth to her. She has given birth to more than a dozen children with her Danish husband one after another, but none of them can be raised. Will the throne be passed on to her in the future? Besides, Old James now has a legal marriage and childbirth, James, the Duke of Cambridge, and she is in good health and healthy to the age of ten. According to the practice of inheriting the throne in Christian countries, if she has legal marriage and childbirth, her daughter has no right to inherit.

What's more, Louis the Great is also the godfather of James Jr.!

Because he was counting on Louis the Great to support his son who believed in Roman Catholicism as the king of England, and with Britain and France approaching, he was separated by an English Channel. So James II has been running very hard in Versailles in recent years and has built a palace in Versailles, next to the Palace of Versailles in Louis XIV. As long as he was happy, he could take his son James and live in Versailles for a long time.

During this period, Old James led his son James to Versailles, France. It was Frank's Greatest Emperor Louis who sent someone to London to invite them. Old James probably wanted to be a matchmaker for James. Old James had long been thinking about the daughter of his former Polish king Jan Sobesky, who was a pink and tender Polish little loli! And she also had a huge heritage and network of relationships left by Jan Sobesky. In Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine on the right bank, there were large territories, and he could also hire brave and faithful Polish and Lithuanian knights through his retainers left by Sobesky!

It would be difficult for the thought that there would be thousands of brave Poles in the future, and for the rule of the Stuart Dynasty, the Lithuanians could suppress the evil British Protestants and Puritans, and James II, who came out of a luxurious gilded carriage with flowers, to be in a difficult mood!

"His Majesty the King, Emperor Louis is here to welcome you."

The voice of Old James' confidant General Churchill sounded. Churchill was a rare talent - he was able to flatter, win battles, and also do diplomacy and politics, whether it is court politics or bed politics! He was really a talented person who "will see the king and love the king"!

This guy is not only the confidant of Old James (his sister is the mistress of Old James), but also a good friend of Old James's mortal enemy William III. He also has a close relationship with Old James' second daughter Princess Anne, and is also a talent that Frank's Louis Great looks for!

This is no longer a stepping on two boats, but he has stepped on all the boats!

In the original history, Churchill turned against him when James needed him the most - this kind of thing was really rare in the European circle! And after doing such a seller's pursuit of honor, he continued to gain the trust of Queen Mary, William III and Queen Anne, and finally named Duke of Marboro! Even the pounds for the construction of the Marboro Palace in his later years were sponsored by Queen Anne.

At present, because Mary and William's covetousness of the British throne was already dead, Churchill continued to be the most important minister as the mistress of old James. After returning from America, he was named Earl, promoted to general, and became the Minister of the Army, and was about to become Prime Minister.

When Old James heard that Louis came out to greet him in person, he felt much more proud again. He smiled and walked into the gate of the marble courtyard. While walking, he greeted Louis the Great in French: "Louis, I'm glad to see you, you called me from London so anxiously. Why? Could it be that the Ottoman Sultan finally gave up?"

Although the Christian coalition had already won a great victory in the Great Southern War, the Ottoman Empire was still struggling to support it and did not immediately admit defeat. Because the price of admitting defeat was too high!

Louis the Great had a great appetite. He not only wanted to recover all the lost lands in Austria and the Czech Republic, but also wanted the entire Great Hungary - that was not the small Hungary in later generations, but Great Hungary, which included Slovakia, Croatia and part of Romania and Ukraine land!

In addition, Louis the Great also wanted the Ottoman Empire to compensate at least several million gold francs! Louis also needed this money to reward these Christian brothers in England, the Netherlands, and Sweden who could not get ceded from the Ottomans.

Of course, the Ottoman Empire was unwilling to accept such a costly peace, and there was also the Great Ming Dynasty behind them! Moreover, the Sultan also had powerful anti-ship cavalry in Jenicheri, so he had to resist.

The Christian camp is now a little exhausted, especially England, the Warring States countries that have no land to divide, are a little tired of war. The situation in England is the same. The Protestants and Puritans in China don’t want to fight. Catholics hope that the king can give them the same rights as the Episcopists after the victory of the Great Southern War and return the property of the Catholic Church. In short, if this battle continues, James II will be under great pressure!

Because the longer the war is, the greater the efforts of all parties, and the greater the demand for post-war interests. If James II cannot provide enough war dividends to satisfy all parties, then his king may end up doing it!

Although no one in the Stuart Dynasty can replace old James and young James now, the British have another way to deal with the Stuart Dynasty - chopping the king's head!

"James, you guessed it right." Louis looked solemn and pulled James to the gate of the King's suite, while saying to his "old brother", "Hugo just came back, and he brought us good news. The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty advocated a ceasefire, and also proposed a more favorable plan for England and the Netherlands."

"What plan?" James asked quickly.

"He advocated the use of excavation of the Suez Canal to replace part of the Ottoman reparations."

"Digging the Suez Canal?" James asked in surprise, "Is it the canal connecting the Red Sea and the Mediterranean?"

If this canal had been excavated a hundred years earlier, it might not have much benefit to England, but almost 20% of the merchant ships on the Western seas are from England! And those "sea countries" in Italy have no overseas trade now.

Therefore, at least 20% of the huge benefits brought about by shortening East-West routes belong to the English!

"Yes!" Louis nodded, "The cost of digging the canal is provided by the Ming Dynasty and the Great Mongolia, and we can get a quarter of the equity. If these equity is taken to the London exchange to issue stocks, they can be worth millions of pounds, right?"

"It must be worth so much!" James nodded while thinking in his mind how much England can get?

Louis, James, Churchill, and Frank Foreign Minister Hugo Leona had already entered the hall of the King's Suite together. At this time, Louis suddenly stopped and turned around and asked, "James, are the Indians on the territory of the 12 North American states? "

James was stunned. Why did he ask about the Indians?

But he still answered truthfully: "Okay, all are fine, all are going where they should go."

Fortunately, Louis's tense face finally smiled, and he asked with a smile: "Where is the place they should go?"

James II smiled and said, "Hell! They have no souls, of course they will go to hell after death!"

"Everything, all killed?" The smile on Louis's face froze.

James also nodded with a smile: "Of course. When I was king, the Indians there were already almost killed by those Protestants and Puritans! I didn't want to care about the remaining Indians, but Leopold's fate reminded me. So I issued an order to destroy all the Indians in the territory unless they converted to Catholicism! Now, there should be no Indian in the colonies of the 12 states!"

The Great Emperor Louis was so angry! You British guys are so cruel, why do you like to extinction so much? They are so savage, but we are still French civilization!

The French were indeed the most civilized among Westerners to the Indians, and they are worthy of being the European lighthouse!

However, the population of New France has always been very small, with a total of only tens of thousands. Moreover, the Indians they faced were all hunting and nomadic peoples, and it was very difficult to exterminate them! So the French were more civilized.

"Louis, what happened?" James also saw something wrong from Louis's face.

Louis glanced at the Foreign Secretary Leona beside him.

Hugo Leona frowned and said, "His Majesty the King, because the Aztecs accused the Ming Emperor of the Ming Dynasty of genocide against Indians in North American colonies, the Ming Emperor proposed that the matter would be investigated, discussed and mediated at the upcoming Versailles Congress."

"What? What's going on in Daming?" James II's face changed suddenly, and the back of his neck was not very cold.

Hugo Leona shrugged: "This is not about the Ming Dynasty. But the Ming Dynasty just needs to meddle in other people's business!"

"Louis, do you let the Ming Dynasty intervene in Atlantic affairs?" James II looked at Louis, "Are our North Atlantic Alliance still afraid of the Ming Dynasty?"

Emperor Louis thought to himself: "I am afraid. I must not be afraid, I just have a headache!"

"This is not a question of whether to be afraid or not!" Emperor Louis said carefully, "It is always wrong to genocide."

"No?" James II looked at Louis in surprise. "Those people don't believe in God!"

He was actually a relatively moderate English Catholic. When he ordered the elimination of the Indians in the twelve states, he could live by believing in God! Of course, they must be baptized by the Roman Catholic pastor.

But how could the Anglicans and Puritans in North America help the Roman Catholic Church to attract people? Don’t even think about it!

Emperor Louis said with a pale face: "But the Emperor of Ming and the Great Khan of Mongolia are not Catholics either! One of them believes in Buddha, and the other is likely to be the devil himself. Should we exterminate them?"

James said: "The Ming Dynasty and the Great Mongolia are too powerful!"

"What about Aztec?" Louis looked at James.

"Aztec. That's a problem for Spain!" James II dared not personally conquer Mexico and the Spanish emperor died there, and he could not die again!

Moreover, it is impossible for those Protestants in the UK to pay money to support the British to help the Spaniards fight the Aztecs. Before, Churchill led his troops to North America to defend England's own colonies, not New Spain.

After the Battle of Texas River Bay, the English army actually stopped moving, and only the English navy moved into the Caribbean under the name of opposing Aztec. Everyone knows what they think, so although England will not land in Mexico, it will not make peace with Aztec.

Because the powerful English navy was supporting the Spaniards, the coastline of the Aztec kingdom was always under the threat of the Spanish, which made the Aztec king Montezuma very troubled. Montezuma sent people to sue Zhu Hezma for genocide in North America in order to give the Ming Dynasty an excuse to interfere so as to force the English to make peace with the Aztecs.

But no one expected that Zhu Hezang would take advantage of the situation and play!

"Now is a trouble for England!" Louis the Great said with a gloomy face, "The Emperor of Ming Dynasty has made it clear that if the Indians in the twelve states of North America are really exterminated by you, he will provide a large amount of military aid to the Aztecs and support the Aztecs and various Indian tribes in North America to go to war with England!"

"This, this," James II didn't know what to say, and after a long time he put it in, "His Majesty the Emperor, aren't you going to do anything for England?"
