"Bring the carriage over, we intercepted more than twenty boxes of silver coins and treasures from the evil Barbary pirates and transported them to the city!"

The Grand Commander Castella announced the results of the battle to the knights who stayed in Valletta City this time to dispatch the fleet, and the knights of the Knights in the Hospital cheered!

"But in this battle, there were 17 of our heroic knights and warriors who paid their precious lives to capture the pirate's turret! Let us pray for them that their souls will go to heaven after their death, and they will be with God!" Castella said heavily.

Next, Castella pronounced the name of every sacrificed person. There were not many core members of the Knights of the Hospital, and almost everyone, Castella remembered that his voice was low and sad.

The people of the Knights' Order of the Hospital were sobbing, and the families of the Knights who died sobbed.

The situation in the Mediterranean is very complicated. In order to survive and fight against the Ottoman Empire, many people sacrificed every year, and everyone is struggling to survive. It is hard to say which side is a sin or which side is justice, just to survive.

"Compared with them, we are much lucky in the East." The officers of the Fourth Fleet whispered in private.

"Their sacrifice is for the people in the world to live better. We cannot live up to their sacrifice. Our Hospital Knights will continue to protect our world from the evil Ottoman Empire and the Barbary pirates!" Castella said to the people of the Hospital Knights after the prayer ended.

He is a believer of God, but he is also the leader of the Knights of the Hospital. He still has to return to the reality. He wants to lead the Knights of the Hospital to survive better on this island in the middle of the Mediterranean.

"Everyone, come to the city." Castella comforted everyone who had lost their family members and led them into Valata City.

"Brother, who are they?" The female knight blocked Castella with several young knights.

Everyone looked at the female knight who suddenly appeared, with a height of 1.7 meters, long golden hair draped behind the helmet, a beautiful and clean face, a tight figure, and the octagonal red cross sign on the breastplate was as red as blood, and her heroic appearance was cool.

"Hannah, why have you put on this armor again? It's no longer the Middle Ages. This kind of armor cannot block the musket. It's better to change into a convenient dress." Castella frowned slightly when she saw this female knight.

"Only medieval armor can show the spirit of our hospital Knights! Well, brother, who are those with black hair and yellow skin? Are they from East India?" asked the female knight known as Hannah.

"As close, their country is in the northern continent of the Spice Islands, a wealthy country recorded in Marco Polo, China. They plan to come here to deal with the Barbary pirates and the Ottoman Empire behind them." Castella said.

"The kingdom depicted by Marco Polo..." The female knight was surprised.

"This is my sister Hannah. She can speak the languages ​​of the Six Kingdoms, Italian, English, Spanish, German, French, Greek, and not Latin. She always wanted to be a brave knight, but I did not allow her to go out to participate in the battle. The battle with the Barbary Pirates, the Ottoman Empire was too dangerous. The failed party was captured and sold as a slave." Castella introduced the identity of the female knight to the arrival of Chinese and British people.

"You know the language of the Six Kingdoms at such a young age, and your language talent is excellent!" Sir Greenville couldn't help but exclaim.

"There is no way. Our hospital Knights Order is located in the center of the Mediterranean. There are merchants from all over the world who come to trade. If you want to trade, you have to communicate with merchants from all over the world. There are also many believers from all over the Mediterranean who join our Knights Order or settle on the Island of Malta for various reasons. Many knights on the island know more than two languages. Of course, we basically didn't see Chinese people here before, so no one knows Chinese." Castella said.

"How far is it from us in your place? Why did you go to the Mediterranean?" asked the female knight Hannah tirelessly.

"Hannah, don't be so rude in front of a noble guest!" Castella shouted.

Hannah didn't dare to disobey her brother's words and pouted dissatisfiedly.

Castella led the Chinese and Britons to cross the walls of Valletta and walked into the fortress that was built decades ago.

The Knights of the Hospital regarded Valletta as a fortress to deal with the Turkish army that could attack at any time, so the city has many fortifications, and the thickness of the limestone wall is also amazing.

The entire city is completely regarded as a defensive fortress. As long as the defenders inside have the determination to resist to the last person, even if the 100,000 Turkish troops arrive, they will not be able to conquer them.

The female knight Hannah was still a little depressed. She followed the team and saw Zheng Zhibao. She originally wanted to use Italian, but she thought that her brother seemed to be communicating with them in English, so she also asked Zheng Zhibao in English: "What are you doing when you come to the Mediterranean?"

Zheng Zhibao was a little suffocated after hearing this. He was not familiar with English and usually had translators, but the translator is conveying the words of the leader of the group, Castella. Now a female knight who is almost as tall as him suddenly asked him, how should he answer this?

Zheng Zhibao looked at the only Li Jinde, who was more familiar with English, as if he asked for help.

Li Jinde was originally looking at the fortress-style layout in Valletta City, but Zheng Zhibao kicked Hannah, the troublesome guy, to him.

"This is a very long story. In short, I was caught by the Barbary Pirates, and then our people came to save me from the city of London and happened to meet your fleet. The so-called enemy's enemy is friends, so we plan to unite to teach the Barbary Pirates a greater lesson." Li Jinde briefly summarized.

"Why do they want to save you? Is your identity important?" Hannah asked in confusion.

Usually, even if an important member of the Knights of the Hospital is captured by pirates, there is nowhere to rescue him.

"It's not that I'm particularly important. In short, there are very complicated reasons..." Li Jinde didn't want to tell the little girl who looked innocent about the complicated reasons behind it.

It is true that the Fourth Fleet is here to save him this time, but the Fourth Fleet has a more complex purpose. It is estimated that in Hannah's worldview, the world is either black or white, and there are not so many tricks. Li Jinde, like Castella, does not want this young female knight to get involved in the dangerous Mediterranean struggle.

She might marry and have children in the sturdy fortress of Valletta and live peacefully in troubled times.

However, Hannah seemed to be curious about the outside world: "How did they treat you after you were caught by the pirates? Have you sold you as a slave?"
