In Taiwan's Governor's Mansion, Wang Guorui has received news that his fleet has destroyed the Spaniards' sneak attack. And next, he just waited for the Spaniards to come to declare war, and then he could think of them declaring war in turn, so it was just an excuse anyway. As for now, he was waiting for the Spaniard to come and make a fool of himself, so he also wanted to see how the Spaniard would behave.

"Governor Wang, on behalf of Spain, I formally represent the alliance with the Netherlands, and then declare war on Taiwan!" said the Spanish consul in Taiwan.

And Wang Guorui accepted the declaration of war with a smile, and this situation made the Spanish Consul General in Taipei feel incredible. In his eyes, if Wang Guorui is angry, furious, or wants to kill someone, then he can understand it. And Wang Guorui was so calm, which made the Spanish Consul in Taipei feel very nervous. He didn't know what was going on, so he felt a little guilty in his heart. And then, he thought that his country's fleet had already wiped out Taiwan's Java Sea fleet at this time, which restored his confidence. Now Taiwan no longer has a viable fleet in Nanyang, because apart from the Banda Sea fleet in Nanyang, there are no other fleets. The Banda Sea fleet is composed of destroyers, frigates, and even service fleets, so it is impossible to fight the Spanish fleet. But now that Taiwan's Taiwan Strait Fleet has been held back by the Japanese, it is impossible to support it southward. In this war, Spain has seized control of the sea. So it is already tantamount to establishing a victory, which makes the Spanish Consul in Taipei feel at ease.

"Governor Wang, from now on. Our Kingdom of Spain will enter a state of war with Taiwan until you withdraw from Nanyang!" said the Spanish Consul in Taipei.

However, Wang Guorui took out a document from the drawer with a smile, and said lightly, "You should take a look at this document!"

The Spanish Consul in Taipei didn't know what Wang Guorui meant by this, so he subconsciously took the document and took the initiative to read the contents above.

"This is impossible!" The Spanish Consul in Taipei exclaimed.

This document is actually a telegram, which claims that the Taiwan Java Sea Fleet successfully defeated the Spanish warships and then the Spanish fleet has surrendered. All three warships have been captured. A total of more than 1,200 Spanish naval soldiers were captured, which can be regarded as successfully destroying the Spanish conspiracy. if so. That situation must be very unfavorable for the Spaniards. Once they lose command of the sea, the Spaniards have already lost this war. And the key to this war is the struggle for sea control!

"Mr. Consul, what do you think?" Wang Guorui asked.

"This is impossible! This is impossible!" the Spanish Consul in Taipei exclaimed.

And soon, the Spanish consul in Taipei also felt scared. Many diplomats in this era are people who have to pass through the military. And soon it can be analyzed that if the Spanish fleet fails to attack Taiwan's Java Sea Fleet, it means that Taiwan's Java Sea Fleet in turn annihilates the Spanish fleet, and this means that they cannot counterattack up. And the command of the sea is still controlled by Taiwan, so the Spaniard's plan to land on Kalimantan Island has completely failed. After all, it is impossible for the army to land without command of the sea. So in the next chain of events, Taiwan has mastered the sea. Wouldn't it be possible to continuously transport the supplies of the troops to Southeast Asia, and then allow the troops to fight for a long time, and then defeat the Spanish army?

And the reason why the Spaniards went to war against Taiwan this time. In fact, there are still many complicated reasons. I thought Taiwan had already occupied Nanyang, and the Spaniards actually vaguely knew Taiwan's intentions for the Philippines. After all, the geographical location of the Philippines is too coincidental for Taiwan, and it happens to be stuck in the middle of Taiwan and Nanyang. If the Philippines is occupied, the Taiwan fleet can get supplies along the way, and it will not be controlled by the French. As for the Spaniards, they are vaguely aware of Taiwan's ambitions for the Philippines, and they believe that the best solution is to force Taiwan back. Let them give up Nanyang. In this way, they can cut off their giant hand reaching out to Nanyang, and this is also one of the reasons why the Spanish team went to war in Taiwan. That is to keep the Philippines. But the situation is completely different now. The Spaniard's calculations have completely failed, and he has also taken the initiative to declare war on Taiwan, which means that they are already in a state of war.

In this way, Taiwan can attack the Philippines at any time, isn't that very terrible? Originally, Taiwan also had ambitions for the Philippines, but now it has a suitable reason, and then it can land in the Philippines. Isn't this very appropriate? Now Taiwan has enough excuses to occupy the Philippines, which means that Taiwan can swallow the Philippines into its stomach at any time, and this is an excuse given by the Spaniards themselves. They have already taken the initiative to declare war on Taiwan, so naturally Taiwan is also qualified to fight back, so the Philippines is already a piece of fat that Taiwan can swallow at any time.

"The two armies are at war, and if you don't kill them, then I won't embarrass you. However, since we have already started the war, we can also send you back." Wang Guorui said.

According to the rules, after the start of the war, both countries will repatriate each other's missions, which means a complete severance of communication and the start of the war. And this is also to avoid leaking secrets, or to let those envoys ask for information everywhere, so as to prevent all kinds of information from leaking to the enemy. So Wang Guorui has now repatriated the Spanish consul in Taipei and told them to go away.

Soon, the Spanish consul in Taipei didn't know how he left Taiwan, so he got on a boat and left. But the current situation has exceeded his expectations, he can only return to the country as soon as possible, and let those big bosses in the country solve it.

"Order, order Sa Zhenbing, the commander of the Banda Sea Fleet, to immediately send ships to occupy the coast of the Philippines, and send service ships to transport our army from the East Borneo theater to the Philippines. Order Zhu Yuan, this time we are two His East Borneo theater is responsible for attacking the natives there. Now the Philippines has held a major uprising, and the Filipinos have begun to expel the Spaniards, and the Spaniards are struggling with this. And if my predictions are correct , the Philippines will soon establish a country composed of rebel troops, and then maybe a republic will be established. However, tell Zhu Yuan that we Taiwan will not recognize that as a legal republic, we will only recognize the Philippines as belonging to the Spaniards A colony. As for the Philippines, since it is a colony of the Spaniards, the Spaniards have already declared war on us, so we don’t need to be polite. No matter whether those natives establish a republic, we will not recognize it.”

According to history, the so-called First Philippine Republic will be established, and at that time the current national uprising in the Philippines has reached its peak. The Spaniards actually only occupied the Philippines in name, but this is what Taiwan wants. As long as it has this name, Taiwan can directly occupy the Philippines, and the rebels will be helpless at that time. On the contrary, at that time, Taiwan's East Borneo Military Region will severely attack the Philippine insurgents, and those Philippine insurgents will definitely be beaten miserably by Taiwan's troops. Because the Philippines can't even beat the Americans, how can it beat itself?

After all, the Philippines has no industry, and their weapons are actually inferior to those of the Manchu Qing mainland government. We must know that the Manchu Qing mainland government still had preliminary industries, but the Philippines really had no industry at all. And many of them also fight with weapons such as sticks and stones. Their only advantage is their strong willpower to fight. But the will to fight cannot replace the inferiority of weapons~lightnovelpub.net~Their inferiority of weapons is larger than that of the revolutionary army and Japan during the later anti-Japanese period. At any rate, China's revolutionary army can still have a lot of people with rifles, and it also has its own firearms repair shop, which can make its own grenades. And these Filipino rebels don't have any industrial capabilities at all, they can't even beat the Americans, so naturally they can't win. For this, Wang Guorui has full confidence. In the future, the East Borneo Military Region will become a mountain warfare force, specializing in mountain warfare.

"Order, Chen Liyan's West Borneo Military District closely monitors the Strait of Malacca, and then asks Li He's Java Sea Fleet to keep an eye on the Strait of Malacca. If any Spanish troop transport ships come over, then you don't have to be polite and destroy them directly. I don't believe that the Spaniard's ship can land on our Borneo smoothly," Wang Guorui said.

Now that the Spaniards have lost their command of the sea, it is impossible for the Spanish army behind to land on Borneo. If they leave the Strait of Malacca, they are looking for death. So if they dare to pass through the Strait of Malacca, Wang Guorui's Java Sea Fleet will naturally not let them go. At that time, when the Spaniards arrived in the army, they might have sunk with the navy.

The Spaniards were only out of a gamble, but as a result, this gamble has been seen through by Taiwan, then they simply do not have the strength to fight Taiwan for a long time, they can only be blocked outside the Strait of Malacca, and then gradually eliminated by Taiwan. (to be continued)
