In the side hall of the main hall, Charles I, who had a solemn expression, became more and more gloomy, and he looked at Grand Duke Rose who had been waiting in the side hall with a little scrutiny.

Even when facing Charles I, Grand Duke Rose just stood up and bowed to Charles I, "I have seen your Majesty."

With a swagger of her sleeve, Charles I sat down and stared at Rose and said, "Rose, aren't you sitting in the Strait of Gibraltar? Why did you return it in a hurry?"

Grand Duke Rose said calmly: "Your Majesty, the Ming people invaded the port. I am hereby returning this time because I hope that Your Majesty can send people to reinforce the port to ensure that the port will not be lost!"

Looking at Grand Duke Rose's appearance of being devoted to the country, Charles I, who knew that Grand Duke Rose was running away at the last minute, was so angry that he clenched his fists.

If possible, Charles I wished he could drag Grand Duke Rose down and chop off his head, but Charles I could not do that.

He is just a unified Spain, and the power held by a group of nobles in China is no worse than that of his king, especially Grand Duke Rose, who is a representative of many nobles. Even his king is not easy to target Grand Duke Rose. Otherwise, if he targets Grand Duke Rose, I wonder what kind of associations that would make those nobles have.

Taking a deep breath, Charles I looked at Grand Duke Rose, and nodded with a little smile on his face, "It's rare that Grand Duke Rose is dedicated to his country. I am deeply pleased. Grand Duke has worked hard all the way back, so I'd better go back early to rest."

When he saw Grand Duke Rose, he wanted to get angry, but he had no choice but to deal with Grand Duke Rose, so Charles I could only endure the anger in his heart and did not want to see Grand Duke Rose.

Grand Duke Rose also understood that Charles I didn't want to see him now, so he didn't want to stay and continue to stimulate Charles I.

However, when he got up and left, Grand Duke Rose said to Charles I: "Your Majesty, when I left the port, the Ming fleet was attacking the fleet. If there was no miracle, I am afraid that the port will not last for a few days, so please ask Your Majesty to send troops as soon as possible, otherwise the Strait of Gibraltar will be in danger!"

The fists were clenched and clattered, and Charles I could grit his teeth and said, "I know."

When Grand Duke Rose walked out of the hall not far away, he heard the sound of smashing things in the hall behind him. Obviously, it was Charles I smashing things to vent his anger.

Not long after, many ministers in the kingdom were summoned, and many of them had well-informed and had already received the news, so they had some understanding of the purpose of Charles I summoning them to come, but most of them did not have such a channel, so they did not understand why the king hurriedly summoned them to him at this time.

When Charles I told the news that the Ming people attacked the Strait of Gibraltar, many people exclaimed directly.

Just as the Ming monarchs and ministers all thought that the Ming dynasty was the supreme country of the Celestial Empire and the four barbarians were all barbarians, these kingdom ministers were obviously immersed in Spain's invincible past.

In the eyes of these people, although the world is big and there are many countries, few of them can take it seriously, let alone make them feel a sense of crisis.

But now the king actually told them that someone was attacking the Strait of Gibraltar. Someone immediately blushed and said, "Rampant, it's so rampant. Do you think my Spanish Kingdom is easy to bully?"

Of course, this is something I don’t know much about the Ming Dynasty. Any ministers who know something about the Ming Dynasty are now standing there one by one, their faces full of contemplation, and they have no intention of opening their mouths.

Charles I frowned and his eyes froze: "Let's talk about it, how should we deal with the invasion of our country?"

"War, what else can I consider? Only a great war can let Mingren know what a maritime power is."

Some people remained silent directly, while some were shouting to start a war. As a result, as long as it can be imagined, the Ming people had already come to the door. If he, the king, dared not respond, would be afraid that he would be laughed to death.

The vast army can be said to be followed by Grand Duke Rose. It took only one day. The city of Toledo was more than ten miles away, with flags covering the sun and smoke rolling.

Such a huge noise naturally alarmed the people of Toledo City. The Toledo City Guards who received the warning were rushing to close the city gates, and a group of generals gathered on the city wall and looked out from afar.

I saw a cloud of smoke rolling in the distance, and under the smoke and dust, there was a large army of blackness.

As the saying goes, if there are more than ten thousand people, there is no boundaries. What's more, Yu Dayou brought nearly 20,000 people to kill him, and tens of thousands of people were arranged, which was really amazing.

Several generals looked at the Ming army formation that seemed to be a divine weapon falling from the sky in the distance, and were stunned, with unbelievable expressions on their faces.

Not long ago, they discussed with King Charlie how to mobilize troops and how to rush to the port to block the Ming people.

As a result, it was only one day before the Ming people's army had already appeared under the city.

A general squinted his eyes, but he was calculating the time in his heart. According to the speed of Grand Duke Rose, he had been rushing back from the port for nearly ten days. However, the Ming army was only delayed Grand Duke Rose Rose for less than two days. If he calculated this way, there would be more things to indicate.

At least we can see a lot of things from this time alone, first of all, the approximate time of the port falling, the speed of the Ming people's march, etc.

The more you think about it, the more shocked you are.

At the same time, in the palace, Charles I was having lunch break. When the attendant shouted outside the dormitory, Charles I angrily pushed a noble lady away in her arms, walked out in her clothes, and shouted angrily: "Didn't you see that I am resting? What's wrong? I'll disturb my rest."

The attendant said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, the Ming people... the Ming people are here!"

Charles I was stunned for a moment, and looked at the attendant in confusion with some confusion. After a while, Charles I realized it and said loudly, "What, what are you saying, the Ming people are here, how is this possible?"

The attendant was startled, obviously being shocked by Charles I's reaction, but the attendant said to Charles with great certainty: "Your Majesty, the Ming army is outside the capital at this moment..."

"With this king's departure from the palace, I want to see who is pretending to be a god. How could they suddenly kill from the port to the capital? Could it be that these Ming people are all divine weapons, and they actually appeared under the city in such a short time?"

Not long after, Charles I appeared on the city wall in a panic. When the generals saw Charles I, they hurriedly came up to him.

Charles I waved his hand and signaled that the generals would not have to be too polite, then stood at the city wall and looked outside.

With just one look, Charles I's expression changed drastically, because in the range of his sight, there were all black heads. Just looking at the scale of the military formation, judging by Charles I's experience, there were at least tens of thousands of Ming troops under the city at this moment.

You should know that the defenders in the city are only three or four thousand at this moment. After all, a considerable number of the troops in the country were previously recruited by Grand Duke Rose to gather in the port.

As a result, tens of thousands of troops were defeated in one battle, and the direct consequence was that the country was empty, and even such a powerful place was only protected by thousands of soldiers.

In fact, if the Spanish Kingdom had not been targeted by the Ming army, Spain would have been in full swing, with 60 to 70% of its troops overseas, and only a very small number of troops were left in the country, and it would have been normal that people would have been at the gate of the city.

However, Spain provoked the Ming army, and this situation occurred.

It was precisely because of the emptiness of the country that Charlie I was so panicked when he saw the numerous soldiers and horses of the Ming army below.

Facing tens of thousands of troops, Charles I was able to establish Spain and lead it to become the monarch of a maritime power. Naturally, he was not a fool. He knew very well that the thousands of people in the city alone would not be able to defend the city.

Since there is a risk of losing the city to defend the city, we must find a way to solve the current problem.

With a rolling look in Charles I, he thought of it and glanced over the ministers around him.

After all, after a while, many ministers who received the news rushed over and accompanied Charlie for the rest of his life.

"Whoever wants to go out of the city on behalf of me to talk to the Ming people, even if they want, they will not refuse as long as we can do."

I was beaten to the door of my house, and there was nothing to be embarrassed about. As long as I could overcome the current difficulties, gather people and find a way to take revenge.

As the saying goes, being able to bend and stretch is a real man.

Although Charles I didn't know this, he did this. As the lord of a country, he would lose face if he begged for mercy. In his eyes, face is more important than his own safety.

Among the rumors, the Ming people were like killing people. These ministers and generals were so upset. If they had known this, they would have come later. It would have been better than being stared at by Charles I at this moment. If they were chosen to be messengers, wouldn't they go without returning?

Whenever Charles I's eyes fell on someone, the man lowered his head and wanted a crack to appear on the ground so that he could hide it.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Charles I sighed in his heart, pointed his hand and said, "Earl of Bauhinia, why not let you go out of the city on behalf of me."

The Bauhinia Earl was named, and was stunned at first, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face, but he did not refuse, but responded.

The city gate opened, and a few figures walked out of the city gate. Then the city gate closed with a bang, leaving only the Bauhinia Earl who had walked out of the city.

Several whistle detectives came quickly, staring at the Bauhinia Earl and shouting: "Who are you, why did you leave the city?"

The Bauhinia Earl tried hard to use the extremely bad Ming Dynasty official words: "Emunique, we are messengers!"

Several whistle detectives had been wasting a lot of effort to hear the words of the Bauhinia Earl and figure out the purpose of the group.

In the temporary camp, Yu Dayou looked at the Bauhinia Earl and his group brought by the provocateur, and sat there, watching with interest.

The Bauhinia Earl, who felt as if he was regarded as a monkey, was so angry in his heart, but the situation was not as good as that of others. This time he came to seek peace on behalf of the king. If he was determined by his own nature, let alone the peace talks failed, he might even lose his life.

Having abolished a lot of energy and suppressed the anger in his heart, the Earl of Bauhinia said to Yu Dayou: "My country and your country are a harmonious country, but somehow they have reached this point. My king sympathizes with the people of both countries and is unwilling to provoke a war with your country. He is here to come and is willing to negotiate with you."

Yu Dayou raised his mouth slightly, glanced at Jiao Yuan beside him, and signaled Jiao Yuan and Earl of Bauhinia to speak.

Jiao Yuan, who was sitting aside, nodded to Yu Dayou, then looked at the Earl of Bauhinia, and shouted suddenly, "Do you know your guilt?"

Whether it was Jiao Yuan or Yu Dayou, he had learned Spanish fluently in recent years, so the Bauhinia Earl could hear it clearly and clearly.

He said with a little aggrieved look on his face, "What does this mean by this lord?"

Jiao Yuanyi waved his hand and said with a little domineering attitude: "You and the small countries dare to attack our fleet of the Celestial Kingdom at sea. Is this not a sin or what?"

"Misunderstanding, this must be a misunderstanding. Our country has always liked peace..."

With a puff, Yu Dayou, who was sitting beside him, couldn't help but squirt out a mouthful of tea. He saw Yu Dayou look at the Bauhinia Earl with an incredible look on his face. He said for a long time: "I admire you, I admire you."

To be honest, even Jiao Yuan deeply admired the shamelessness of Count Bauhinia who opened his eyes and told lies. At least he could not say such shameless words.

After slamming the table, Yu Dayou stared at the Earl of Bauhinia and said, "No need to say more nonsense. Didn't you come on behalf of Charles I? Then you will pass on a message to Charles I for me, let him honestly apologize and surrender. In this way, I will definitely give him a life and protect his life's glory. If not, hum..."

The Earl of Bauhinia, who showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, said to Yu Dayou: "This master, His Majesty the King is full of sincerity. Our country is willing to take out a million gold coins to apologize to your country, and ask the Lord to withdraw his troops..."

Holding up the tea cup, Yu Dayou ignored the Earl of Bauhinia and just quietly savored the tea. However, Jiao Yuan stood up and reached out to the Earl of Bauhinia and pointed out: "There is nothing else to talk about, please ask a few of you to go back to the city to pass on the message."

The Earl of Bauhinia couldn't help but shout at Jiao Yuan, and Yu Dayou said loudly: "Two, two, we are full of sincerity. War is inhumane. If you are not satisfied with the compensation, we can talk about it again, and we can talk about it again..."

He glanced at the Earl of Bauhinia with disdain, and heard Yu Dayou slowly say: "Tsk tsk, your country is really sincere. He is just willing to take out a million gold coins. I am afraid that the property of any of the great nobles in your country will not be less than a million gold coins." As he spoke, Yu Dayou waved his hand with a little unexpected look on his face and said: "Mr. Jiao, let me see you off for you!"

The Earl of Bauhinia said with a panic look on his face: "We can talk about what you want!"

The Bauhinia Earl was very uncomfortable with Yu Dayou's unreasonable performance. In his opinion, Yu Dayou must want more benefits. As long as Yu Dayou is willing to talk about it, no matter how many benefits they have, they cannot give it, but the premise is that they can continue to talk about it.
