Chapter 1541 (??) I am here, I see, I conquer!(2/3)
"Yes, I should teach them a lesson."
"And, you know?"
"This reminds me of the Mongols hundreds of years ago. At that time, I heard that our ancestors were beaten so miserably. Fortunately, their emperor died at that time, so all the terrible devils ran back to fight for power and profit. Otherwise, today I would not have our powerful Spanish kingdom."
"You're right..."
"However, hundreds of years have passed, and now they are here again. This time, their orientals come by the sea, and I don't know what they will become in the end?"
“…”
“…”
Speaking of this, the two soldiers couldn't help but calm down together, not daring to imagine that terrible thing.
"Okay, that kind of thing is not something that people like us should care about, so there are so many of them!"
"If you want to fight, it's the navy to fight. We are not sailors, so we don't care about those!"
"ah!"
"That's right!"
"Ah~!"
"It's still early now, the sun hasn't risen yet. It's so sleepy. Why don't we take a look?"
"Don't!"
"It's almost dawn. If you sleep again, you will be seen. Then there will be a whip!"
“…”
"Too……"
“Hmm?”
"It seems like a boat is coming again..."
Suddenly, the soldier Louis seemed to have discovered something and began to stretch his neck to look at the hazy sea level beside the sky.
"I'll take a look..."
Seeing this, another soldier on the side reached out and picked up a simple pair of monocular telescopes next to him that could not be stretched and started to observe.
"Yes, it's a ship!"
"I seemed to see their masts..."
"Tsk!"
"The flag I don't recognize is too far and I can't see it clearly, but the bastards below must have benefited again!"
Putting down the telescope, the soldier said to the soldiers and tax officials who had just been on duty at the port with some envy.
Because they don’t recognize the flag, it proves that they definitely don’t come to the Port of Seville often, otherwise they can recognize it from afar! Instead of coming to the Port of Seville often, they are definitely not big businessmen with backstage. Then, here, they will inevitably be troubled by their Spanish officials and demanding property.
"Hey!"
"Or let's guess where did those ships come from?"
"I'll bet on Riyal!"
"That's from the New World, do you dare?"
As he said that, the soldier Louis suddenly took out an irregular silver coin and placed it on the windowsill of the tower.
"Go ahead!"
"I bet they come from Africa!"
Seeing this, another soldier took out an equally irregular silver coin and slapped it on the windowsill without being outdone.
"Look at it!"
"Which chamber of commerce is it from..."
As long as you see the flags hanging on the ship, recognize the nationality of the ship or the style of the chamber of commerce, soldiers like them who stand guard at the towers of the dock every day can roughly determine where the other party came from!
Because every chamber of commerce and every country usually takes a fixed route, and the cargo transported is also fixed. They don’t even need to go to the dock below to ask and can guess it.
At this time, in the distance, the sun gradually rose, and the ships that appeared on the horizon became larger and larger.
"I still can't see clearly..."
"Damn, the sun is rising from behind them, and I see blood red, and I can't see the color of their flags at all!"
"Take it, I'll take a look!"
"ah……"
"I really can't see clearly, but don't worry, wait and see again. I think I will definitely win in the end!"
"Pooh!"
"Dream! I must be the one who wins!!"
After glaring for more than ten minutes, the sun rose higher and more dazzling, and at the same time, the outlines of the ships in the distance became clearer.
“…”
“!!”
"Not good! That ship..."
At this time, the soldier Louis, who was holding a telescope in his hand, finally realized something and began to exclaim.
"What's wrong?"
And his reaction naturally attracted the attention of his companions.
"wrong!"
"The ship feels so big, please see if it's right!"
"Usually, when we look at it from such a distance, how can we see such a big ship?"
"And, it seems there are exactly five ships..."
He handed the telescope to his companion. When the other party started looking, soldier Louis did not forget to explain in confusion.
"oops!"
“It’s really big…”
"etc!!"
"Five ships? That's right, they're five big ships?"
"That flag..."
Finally, the soldier holding the telescope seemed to realize something, and opened his mouth and widened his eyes, slowly lowered the telescope in his hand and looked at his companion beside him.
"Oriental!!"
"Admiral of the Devil!!"
Almost in unison, the two of them exclaimed the terrible name they least wanted to hear.
In their opinion, the admiral Barudis, who should be waiting for them in Madeira, led the Invincible Armada to annihilate, but now it actually appeared outside the port of Seville City?
"quick!"
"Roll the alarm!!!"
"Together!"
"Tight!!"
Dang~! Dang~!
Ding~! Ding~! Ding~! Ding~!
Soon, in the orange light of the morning light, the bronze bell that had not ringed for at least several years began to ring rapidly on the tower above the port of Seville.
...
"ha!"
|?˙?˙)?
"So, the city in the distance is Seville, the old nest of the enemy fleet?"
?(ψ`▽′)o
It was already dawn. Anne, standing on the bow of the flagship "Xiang Feihu" and moving forward at full speed with the sunshine and sea breeze on her back, could see clearly the outline of the big city located at the mouth of a large river in the distance without using a telescope.
"Yes!"
"Report to the Admiral, that is the city of Seville in Spain!"
"At least……"
"That's what the two Portuguese guides on our ship said!"
