"Oh...negotiation will be held in a month."

When Yang Feng heard this, he burst into laughter. This old man actually played a delaying strategy in front of him. Little did he know that our ancestors had all played such a trick, and you dare to play with an axe in front of Lu Ban?

He smiled and said, "Why does it take a month later? There is an old saying in the Ming Dynasty that it is better to choose a date than to meet the day. Since you have come, isn't it good to start the talk today? It's not that good to save everyone's time. What do you think of you?"

Castro knew that his little thoughts had been seen through as soon as he heard this, but this guy was used to being shameless and laughed dryly: "Marquis Marquis, I am just a colonel. Negotiating such things requires authorization from the Governor. We also need to report to His Majesty Philip IV and his approval. As far as I know, you must also report to the Ming court for such a big thing?"

"Oh!"

Yang Feng couldn't help but be happy. It was now, and this old man was still thinking about rebeling himself. He was worthy of being an old colonist and refused to suffer any loss. At this time, he still didn't forget to mock himself.

But when things come to this point, how could he miss such a good opportunity? If he remembers correctly, in more than a month, the combined fleet of Spain and Portugal led by Antonio de Okundo will be defeated and fled by the Dutch Navy led by Marton Trop in the Battle of Towns. It was through this naval battle that the Dutch officially replaced the Spanish and became the overlord of the sea.

Since the Spaniards were about to be finished, Yang Feng naturally didn't mind taking advantage of the situation, and he said decisively.

"Col. Castro, you need to say nothing. I will announce to you now in the name of the Marquis of Jiangning, the Ming Empire, and the Ming Dynasty's Grand Commander-in-Capital Commander-in-Capital South, that from now on, Luzon and the entire Nanyang will be included in the protection scope of the Ming Empire. The army or individual of any country who has not received permission from the Ming court will be regarded as a provocation to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Empire will carry out a devastating blow to him. The army of other countries entering Nanyang before this must also withdraw from Nanyang within one month. For those who have been constantly advising, the Ming Empire does not rule out the intention of using force."

"Bang..."

Castro threw the teacup in his hand to the ground, and pointed at Yang Feng with his right hand tremblingly for a moment, so angry that he couldn't speak.

Yang Feng's words are really bullying. Castro's career in Yung has been over 20 years and has experienced dozens of battles. In recent years, he has gained a lot of insights.

But even so, it was the first time he saw such a shameless person.

You should know that in 1565, the Spaniards occupied Cebu Island. Since then, the Spaniards have continuously strengthened their rule over the Luzon Islands. So far, they have built two castles in Cebu Island and Manila.

That's not all, the Spaniards also used Luzon as a springboard to penetrate the east. At the farthest time, they even built a city called the Holy Savior in the northeast corner of Taiwan.

It’s a pity that the Spanish have been in bad luck over the years. First of all, their expansion in the East was hit by the rising Dutch, and then was driven out of Taiwan by Yang Feng. Now they are chasing Luzon and threatening to drive the Spanish out. This is really something that uncles can’t bear tolerate, and even Castro can’t bear even if he is reincarnated with a turtle of ninjas.

Castro sneered: "Marquis Marquis, although our Spanish Empire is now preparing to go to war with the Dutch, it is not something that any country can provoke. It is related to Spain's interests in the East. If the Ming Dynasty really wants to provoke, then you must be prepared to bear the anger of the Spanish army. I hope you don't regret today's decision then!"

Yang Feng was not surprised by Castro's reaction. The Spaniards have been operating in Luzon for more than half a century and have transported a steady stream of benefits to the Spanish mainland every year. It would be strange if they were willing to give up Luzon obediently.

He nodded softly: "Since the negotiation cannot be reached, don't talk. And I am looking forward to meeting you again in the prisoner-of-war camp in the Ming Dynasty in the near future. At that time, I will give you treatment that matches your identity."

Castro also sneered: "Dear Marquis, what you said is exactly what I want to say. If you are captured by us, I will ask the Governor to give you a separate room."

Yang Feng laughed: "Okay, then let's talk with muskets and cannons! People are here... to see off guests!"

"Crash!"

As Yang Feng's voice fell, two fully armed servants walked in from outside the door and looked at the three people in the house with a fierce look. One of them made a gesture of inviting them.

This is a posture of rushing people. Castro stood up in anger, snorted coldly and made a fist gesture at Yang Feng, then walked out without saying a word, Mitchell and the other three followed behind and walked out.

Looking at the backs of several people, Yang Feng burst into laughter. Castro, a white man, actually had Chinese etiquette. I guess this old guy learned it specially before coming.

Catherine, who was standing beside her, looked at Yang Feng laughing and asked curiously: "Marquis Marquis, are you...we really going to fight the Spanish?"

Yang Feng turned his head, looked at her with a smile before asking, "Why, are you worried about those Spanish? But no wonder, your father is Spanish, and they are half of your compatriots, so it is also right to worry about them."

Catherine shook her head: "Marty, although my father is Spanish, I don't think I have anything to do with Spain. Their life and death have nothing to do with me. What I worry about is whether the war with the Spanish will affect my mother's treatment."

"So that's how it is."

Yang Feng was relieved. Although Catherine had half of the bloodline of Luzon and Spain, she had no feelings for these two countries. The latter was just a symbol for her, while the former was a place full of humiliation for her. This can be seen from the ridicule and sarcasm of the surrounding vendors when Yang Feng bought the gloomy wood in her hand.

"You don't have to worry about this. Even if you fight, it will not affect your mother's treatment. But instead, you have to hurry up and study. Otherwise, once the army goes to the battlefield, the wounded will continue to enter the medical camp. Do you know what this means?"

"I understand!" Catherine's expression also became solemn. She nodded heavily at Yang Feng: "Don't worry, Lord Marquis, I will definitely not let your hope down."

"Do it well!"

Yang Feng patted her on the shoulder. At this moment, he didn't know what he remembered, and a sneer appeared on his face.
