"Merda! Damn it! Bastard! Bastard! A bunch of shit pulled by a local dog! How dare you betray me and take my power!..."
"Minchia! Wait until I return to Seville, wait until I bring the news of the new route to see the Holy Queen...I will definitely expose all your shamelessness, despicability and ugliness! I will kill you one by one.
Hang them all!...Just wait and see! I, Columbus, the wise, brave, and powerful commander of the expedition, will one day chop off the limbs and heads of you traitors and feed them to my dogs!...Watch you being killed
pull out!…"
It was getting late, and dark clouds came from the sea, covering up the lackluster sun and bringing with it the salty smell of the Caribbean Sea. The falling raindrops were intermittent, wetting the sailors' clothes. The wet and clinging feeling of exhaustion,
It seems that the two failures not long ago made everyone feel waned.
On the entire Clark galleon, only the stubborn "Commander" Columbus kept roaring and shouting. He ran around the ship while shouting curses, like an angry and neighing donkey.
"Merda! What a bullshit spare tail sail, it's as short as that guy from the Pinzon brothers!...Pedro, please adjust it again, this tail sail is too short, there is no need to raise it so high!..."
"Minchia! Why did it suddenly rain again? The weather in this sea area is like Pinson's mother being fucked by a native and crying, sobbing and sobbing non-stop! It's so annoying!... Alana, unfold the canvas for me.
Catch some rainwater and keep it to drink!…”
"It's...brother-in-law..."
"God bless! Good job..."
On the former flagship Santa Maria, Boatswain Alana was so weak that he took the navigator Pedro to adjust the new sail on the tailmast, and then tried to collect rainwater to replenish the fresh water on the ship. The morale of everyone was very low, and the people on the ship were
There was also a shortage of sailors, and they could barely keep the Clark's sailing ship sailing.
After experiencing the "power-seizing rebellion" that Columbus called not long ago, the number of crew members on the Santa Maria was reduced from 34 to 22. The number of crew members on the Pinta and Ninha was reduced from 12 to 17 respectively.
The number of people has increased to 20 or 21 people.
In other words, the three Pinzon brothers currently control two-thirds of the entire fleet. As for the remaining one-third, it can only be divided equally between Columbus and the second captain De La Cosa...
What's more important is that two royal representatives of Castile took the kingdom's documents and transferred them from the Santa Maria to the Ninha! This means that the Ninha actually became a new ship.
"Flagship". The three Pinson brothers who hold the title of royal family no longer need to obey any orders from Columbus!
"Brother-in-law!...The Ninia has sent out a semaphore! Let us follow and go south to find supplies on the coast!..."
"Vaffanculo! Bullshit! Bastard!... Damn the Pinson brothers, how dare they turn around and give orders to me, the commander!..."
On a rainy evening, the sea was dark gray-blue. Under the dim light, Columbus stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the southern sky. The two brisk caravel sailboats, like nimble and proud petrels in the wind and rain, sailed across the sea.
The slow Santa Maria lagged behind without mercy.
At this moment, the commander of the expedition force gritted his teeth and was forced to accept the ruthless fact: he had become a mere "commander" in name only, and completely lost the command of the exploration fleet. The Hiramatsu brothers were in control of everything, even
It is very possible to go one step further and completely replace him in the Kingdom of Castile!…
"Minchia! I curse you!...When you meet those fierce natives, your heads will be cut off and sacrificed to the devil!..."
Columbus cursed angrily, his face a little distorted. When he heard the curse "about the devil", Alana next to him was very uneasy. He looked at his brother-in-law carefully and asked in a low voice.
"Brother-in-law... what should we do...? Should we obey the Ninja's order and turn to the south?..."
"Merda! What the hell! That idiot Xiaopingsong, why does he lead me?! Diamine!..."
Hearing this, Columbus cursed repeatedly, as if someone had stepped on his foot. But after a few curses, he took a deep breath, showing his flexibility in the difficult situation.
"Turn, south, and follow Brother Pinson!..."
"There are not many supplies on the ship! We must return to the big island in the south to replenish fresh water and food! ... It is best to find a large native tribe that welcomes us... or a weak native small village!..."
"The Lord is a witness! This is the order of the commander of the expeditionary force, and it has nothing to do with the semaphore of the Ninja! Pedro, you come to command the sailors. Alana, follow me with your weapons!..."
After saying that, Columbus turned around angrily and left the bow deck. Alana quickly called two of his cronies, followed behind and asked.
"Brother-in-law! Where are we going?..."
"Go to the cabin! Find Dracosa!..."
"Ah? What are you doing with that cunning and stuffy old dog?"
"Shut up! How are you talking?! Dracosa is the second captain on the ship, you have to use honorifics!..."
"Uh...brother-in-law, these are your exact words before..."
"Alana, you idiot! Can the situation be the same now as before?! Can we be the same as you?!..."
Columbus stopped and knocked Alana hard on the head. Then, he straightened his black noble clothes and sighed silently. At this time, the second captain Dracosa was also neatly dressed.
The captain climbed up from the cabin, just in time to find Columbus.
The sky was dim and the drizzle was falling. The two captains of the Santa Maria, who were looking at each other in disgust and fighting each other, suddenly met each other. They looked at each other silently at the ladder door of the cabin. They watched each other warily for a moment, and their expressions gradually changed.
, everyone smiled in the end.
"Greetings to you! Your Excellency Columbus, Commander of the Expeditionary Force!..."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Ahem! Greetings to you! Captain Dracosa..."
"Witness the Lord! The natives on Sipangu Island are fierce and dangerous, and the exploration fleet may have encountered a crisis... I think the current predicament can only be solved by your wise and brave commander!..."
"That's right! As the wise and brave commander of the expeditionary force, I, Columbus, have my unshirkable responsibility!... Of course, I also need a pious and brave second captain, and I need your assistance..."
The two smiled and chatted, one with a vulgar and fierce look, the other with a humble and calm face. Under Alana's surprised eyes, after just a moment of conversation, the two captains who were originally hostile to each other came together in close proximity. Here.
In the falling raindrops, they looked forward side by side, looking at the two caravel ships that were leading the way south, returning to the Sipangu coast.
"God bless you! Your Excellency, Commander Columbus, why don't you leave the task of communicating with the Flat and Ninja to me in the future?..."
"Huh? Captain De La Cosa, we are sitting on the same ship now... What do you think?..."
"Witness the Holy Mother! The natives on the Sipangu coast are very fierce, and they have inexplicable hostility towards the kingdom's fleet... The Saint Mary's ship is slower, so it is better to follow the two caravel sailing ships and let the Pinzon brothers act as
Pioneer...this will make it much safer for us!"
"Huh? But...if we find a large tribe of natives who can trade, and let Brother Pinsong take the lead...then won't all the wealth of the natives fall into the hands of Brother Pinsong?..."
"Dear Commander! With the current strength of the Pinson brothers, they are indeed enough to occupy the majority of the wealth... If we fight with them and they are determined to take action..."
The second captain, Dracosa, smiled slightly and bowed his head to Columbus. Then, his eyes flashed and he gave a meaningful admonishment.
"God bless you! During this voyage, we have discovered the land deep in the Atlantic Ocean, discovered new shipping routes, and even discovered books from the East! ...Such a shocking discovery is enough to make you famous throughout the world of God, Commander."
, enough for you to proudly report back to the queen, making all the nobles in the kingdom pale in shock!…"
"As long as you can return safely, are you afraid that there will be no chance of a second voyage?...The naval power of the Kingdom of Castile, with so many ships and troops, will be overjoyed at the news you have brought back!... And
On this Eastern Route where wealth flows, as an admiral of the kingdom, you have the support of the queen and the kingdom's navy, so are you afraid that you will not be able to make a fortune? Why are you in a hurry to fight with the Pingsong brothers?..."
"The Lord witnesses! The key now is that we can return! We must return first and return alive!!... We must return to the Kingdom of Castile before the Pinzon brothers and report back to the Queen! We must also be doubly careful.
, be careful of the fierce and warlike native tribes on the coast of Sipangu Island..."
"So, dear Lord Columbus! It's time to consider the return journey!..."
It rained continuously, and the dripping rain fell on Columbus's gloomy face, and also fell into his mouth. He licked his chapped lips and sucked greedily for a while, as if the rain on this piece of Sipangu coast
, all with a touch of sweetness.
"Captain De La Cosa, look, the coast of Sipangu Island has appeared in the south again! ... Although the natives here are far more ferocious than those in the Bahamas, look at this verdant coast and narrow beach.
The faint schools of fish, the pearl clams in the shallows... This is really a beautiful and rich tropical island!..."
"According to the exploration agreement signed by the Queen and me, I will become the well-deserved lord here, with the power to recommend governors and tax collectors! ... As long as we can control the kingdom's fleet and conquer the natives on this big island,
Conquer these ignorant and fierce barbarians!…”
Hearing this, the second captain de la Cosa squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. At the end of the sea and sky ahead, the vast and beautiful Cuban coast spread out silently again. This time, the coast that originally stretched from east to west quietly changed its direction.
It begins to turn from northwest to southeast. The green rainforest, reddish-brown hills, and gray-brown swamps all intersect along the narrow coast, like the most moving bright oil painting...
Those chasing and fighting native boats disappeared without a trace like the drifting clouds yesterday. Everything was so peaceful and beautiful, like a sleeping mermaid, sending out a silent invitation with her seductive and graceful figure...
"Your Excellency, Commander, you are right. This hot coast is so beautiful!... You have the Queen's agreement, and you are the lord promised by the Queen... But such a vast and rich island thousands of miles away, with so many uncivilized native tribes,
But it is by no means so easy to conquer!...And the current situation of the fleet..."
"Well, Captain Dracosa, you understand what you mean! Our first voyage was just to explore the road. When we took the second voyage and brought the power of the Kingdom's navy, the situation at that time... Haha! We have
With a common goal, we can indeed achieve more! And the cunning, despicable, greedy and shameless Pinson brothers are our common competitors and enemies...Merda! The Ninja waved a semaphore! Damn little Pinson idiot, he wants to do it again
Command us, command his commander!!…”
"Hmm? Red flag? Warning?..."
The two captains of the Santa Maria stood side by side, their expressions suddenly changed. They looked at each other in surprise, like frightened grass snakes, and at the same time uttered uneasy low hisses.
"O Lord! Another tribe of natives has been discovered in the south!..."
