Rodriguez has been rooted in Africa for a long time, but because he is separated from Europe, he is very informed and told me a lot of the latest news.

After the decisive battle between Spain and Britain in the English Channel, several consecutive skirmishes occurred on both sides, which is consistent with history.

In particular, in order to completely eliminate the remnants of the Spanish Invincible Fleet, Britain sent Sir Drake to attack the damaged and repaired Spanish fleet. Unexpectedly, this private equity war dominated the shareholders' opinions and did not attack the maintenance fleet in Seville and Barcelona and other places as required by the Queen, and instead robbed the Spanish towns in La Coruna.

This led to the attack not destroying the final power of the Spanish Invincible Fleet. Although it destroyed a town, it left a breathing opportunity for the Spanish Navy, which is also the root of today's situation.

As mentioned in the past few years, the only variable is that the emergence of the Netherlands has disrupted Britain's plan to dominate.

How can I allow others to snore on the side of the bed? The flies in Britain and the West are not needed to be described in detail, but my plan has disrupted the activities.

Europe now reappears in the chaos of previous years, or even more so.

Britain attacked on both sides, using and suppressing Spain while curbing the Netherlands.

The Spanish PUBG battle has become more rampant after it has broken up with the UK. Recently, it has even begun to have the idea of ​​keeping a private land in Africa.

Dutch sword takes a detour and strives to develop maritime transportation, and its comprehensive national strength continues to rise.

Under the leadership of my old friend Henry IV, France gradually embarked on the road of prosperity and strength. In addition to fighting for power on land, it also had new ideas and initiatives at sea.

Portugal has been dormant for a long time, as if it had lost the motivation to regenerate and became a fence-between powers.

At this time, the invitation from Queen Elizabeth I of England seemed particularly bizarre. How did she know that I had returned to a place close to Europe? Or was it just a guess?

Does she know anything else besides this? How much does she know?

Especially the Spanish merchant fleet, is she aware of it?

After thinking about it, I think she should not know the specific situation of this matter. Maybe she has doubts, but she has no evidence.

Because I didn't leave her any evidence available.

All that remained were the things and things of the British and Spanish, so although she might have wondered if someone would make a fool, she could not conclude it to me.

Since this is the case, what can I be nervous about? To deal with me? It will be of no benefit to her. Only by working in-depth with me can it be in line with her fundamental interests.

Just like when it first worked in-depth cooperation to defeat Spain.

But I also need to prepare in advance and not be too busy at the moment.

After thinking about it, I think I still have to leave a backhand. This backhand can be useless, but not without it.

Rodriguez Hua Meimo and others also agreed with my opinion. When we were discussing, we thought of many possibilities, proposed countermeasures and solutions one by one.

However, insurance is after all, after all, what can we do in terms of precautions?

The discussion continued until supper time. Several girls helped Christina, who was already inconvenient to walk, and saw the stubborn and strong sea overlord become such a gentle and gentle appearance in front of me, I was really not used to it.

But this is the fact. No matter how powerful a woman is, she will change after she becomes a woman.

Dinner was a very local barbecue and juice, and we had a great time. Especially the girls, who had been at sea for a long time, ate some pickled food every day, and were naturally very happy after having fresh food.

But I ate a bit tasteless, thinking about my future and destiny, and I really don’t pay much attention to this desire for taste.

Qi Lan, do you have no appetite? Lan, who was sitting next to me, asked with concern, and handed me a large area near the field that was well-examined.

The Spanish were disrupted in the Indian Ocean, and they naturally doubted all the fleets in this area.

Especially the fleet like me who is not in dealing with it, I focus on the target.

So if we want to pass this area smoothly, we must use some small means.

According to the plan, Rodriguez led the merchant fleet to advance north first. Our goal was to make him the target fleet and attract the attention of the Spanish fleet, and then my main fleet passed quietly from the side.

Their fleet left first, and we will leave in a day.

The next morning, our fleet left Sofara and began to continue south by taking advantage of the currents. The first goal was to reach the Cape of Good Hope, and then calculate the distance from the Rodriguez fleet and set off again.

About a week later, our fleet finally approached the Cape of Good Hope, and every time I get here I think of something interesting.

It is said that at the southernmost point of the African continent, south of the Cape of Good Hope, a huge dark vortex will form due to the intersection of the east and west ocean currents.

Countless people who didn't know how powerful people came here to challenge the stimulation of the intersection of the cold current and the warm current, and they all became Poseidon's offerings.

There are countless swimming enthusiasts drowned here every year, but there are still people who are not afraid of death and love to challenge here to fight, just seeking recognition in their hearts.

So I made a name for Hongyuan. In my lifetime, I must go to the Cape of Good Hope and watch others swim carefully! Haha!

As we headed north further north, we encountered a relatively difficult north wind, and the ship happened to be facing the wind, so the old cow pulled a broken cart in terms of speed.

The only thing that is thankful is that we went up against the wind, and Rodriguez also went up against the wind, so our relative distance is certain and we will not pull too far from the wind, causing the plan to fail.

It took us almost half a month to drive from the Cape of Good Hope to Sao Tome and Principe. I remember that many years ago, I was seriously injured here and was unconscious for many years to save me.

Nothing goes without saying, I held Yuan tightly in my arms and sweared firmly in my heart that I would never let her suffer any harm any more.

Lan and Huamei are also full of emotion. How many years have passed since this time? Life is like a flash of time, and the world changes in the blink of an eye.

But the past will never come back. Cherish the present and cherish the possession is the most important thing.

When the fleet arrived at St. George, I wanted to go and see my old Portuguese friends, but I heard that they had left here and went to the New World. The newcomers were all newcomers I didn't know, so I lost the interest and value of visiting.

Continue to sail northwest, pass the Green Corner, and head north at full speed, and we have already entered the European sea area.

I'm back! Europa. How are you still doing when you are good?

However, the response to me was to start encountering naval battles the next day!

The battle was chaotic, with the Spanish fighting with the British, the Portuguese fighting with the Italian, the Dutch fighting with the Spanish, the Ottoman fighting with everyone!

The scale of each battle is not large, but it is very dense. It seems that the whole of Europe has lost the main theme and tone of peaceful development and has begun to enter a long melee stage!

I don’t know how much this situation has to do with what I do, but I’m sure it must be unrelated.

And I really don’t plan to be responsible for this matter. My first step is France. I want to find my friend, King of France, Henry IV!

Why look for him? It's very simple. Now the one who desires the most at sea power is not others, but my ambitious friend, Mr. Henry, who wants to achieve great things outside the land!

This is my plan! I want to find a fulcrum to support all my dreams in this area to realize.

Only in this way can I find my own focus and ending point between several forces.

Rodriguez, who completed the mission, began to go south and return - they attracted a lot of attention from the Spanish, so when we passed, we simply hung the flag of the Indian Ocean Chamber of Commerce and passed by smoothly without any difficulties.

In the autumn of 1599, the fleet was in Nantes Port and officially announced that my fleet and I had returned to Europe, the core of the Age of Discovery.
Chapter completed!
