Capital Datang

Cen Changqian is resourceful and resourceful, but she is still a scholar in essence. She has the common fault of a scholar and is narrow-minded. Coupled with her youthful vigor, she regards today's encounter as a great shame in her life.So from the moment the gun was fired, he had been standing on the top floor of the warship, looking out through the parapet.

When he saw that the Gothic warships were horribly beaten by artillery, and countless Gothic soldiers were "forced" to jump into the sea, the sullenness in his heart finally eased a little. When the domineering posture crushed the remaining Gothic warships, Cen Changqian felt extremely happy, and couldn't help laughing on the spot.

"Sir, look quickly, is that guy in the sea the Gothic general you saw?" At this moment, a guard who followed Cen Changqian to meet the Gothic suddenly shouted.

Cen Changqian followed his arm and looked into the sea, only to see a Goth struggling in the sea, and judging by his attire, he should be the one-eared general.

"Bastard, get him up quickly!" Cen Changqian said ruthlessly with a look of hatred on his face, it was the first time he had been bullied like this since he was a child, and he had to pretend to be timid Well, this bad breath can't be dispelled just by taking revenge on this Gothic navy.Capital Datang 664

At this time, the naval battle had come to an end. Except for a few gothic warships whose character exploded and escaped, the other warships were either sunk by artillery or by large ships in Li Ke's fleet. It was smashed and sunk by the ballista on the merchant ship. Now on the sea, except for the rotten wood, there are Gothic soldiers shouting for help.

"Shoot and kill them all!" Following Li Ke's order, all the soldiers or ordinary crew members on each ship took out their bows and arrows.Then aim at the Goths in the sea and shoot them one by one.Don't talk about human rights with them, the war in this era is so cruel.What's more, it was the Goths who took the initiative to provoke Li Ke and them, so these Goths would have to bear the corresponding consequences.

The guy in the sea is indeed the one-eared general.But when Cen Changqian sent someone to salvage him, this guy was already half dead.His five-oared warship was the most conspicuous target among the Gothic warships, so it attracted a lot of artillery fire, but in the end it was blasted to pieces, and the one-eared general was also blown away by a wooden log. The strip was inserted into the thigh, and it was likely to hurt the main artery. The blood continued to flow, and after being rescued, he fell into a coma and has not woken up until now.

Wang Fangyi looked at the one-eared general on the deck.He untied the waist knife and handed it to Cen Changqian, saying: "Brother Changqian, it seems that this guy will not survive. I think you can take revenge for what happened before by giving him a knife while he is still alive!"

However, Cen Changqian pushed Wang Fangyi's waist knife away after hearing this, and said with a strange smile: "It's too easy to kill him with one knife, and you have to use the rules of the sea to solve it at sea."

Wang Fangyi was taken aback when he heard it, and quickly reacted and said with a smile: "Brother Changqian is right, then let's follow the rules of the sea. Bind his hands and feet and throw him into the sea. If this is the case, he will not die." If so, that would be his fate."

I heard the conversation between Wang Fangyi and Cen Changqian.The surrounding soldiers also burst into laughter. There is indeed such a rule at sea, that is, for the enemy or the crew who committed a capital crime.After being caught, they will be punished with the method Wang Fangyi said.And if the opponent can escape from the rope and find a piece of land in the vast sea.Then the grievances of his fleet will be wiped out.However, in this case, the possibility of escape is very small.

There was nothing more to say after that, General One Ear was tied up with sticks, and then Cen Changqian threw him into the sea with his own hands.And when Cen Changqian was dragging the opponent on the deck, the one-eared general who had been extremely arrogant before just woke up, but after seeing the current situation, he loudly begged Cen Changqian for mercy. Ren, ignoring the other party's pleas on the spot, directly threw the other party into the sea and fed the sharks.

After annihilating the Gothic navy, Li Ke immediately escorted Lu Wan and the others out of the Strait of Gibraltar, and then entered a north-to-south ocean current. According to their estimation, this ocean current is likely to turn west near the equator , then they will be able to reach the east coast of America along this ocean current.

After sending Lu Wan and the others away, Li Ke returned with a fleet mainly composed of four warships, and when passing through the Strait of Gibraltar, the four warships found the naval station in Port Dingis, and then lined up to follow There was a loud bang in the military port.Although the warships in the military port had been almost wiped out in the previous battle, the port facilities in the military port were still there. After these things were dropped, it was enough to make the Visigoths in the city distressed.

However, it was also this bombardment that gave Li Ke and the others a sudden thought: Anyway, they will be enemies with the Visigothic Kingdom in the future, so why not take this opportunity to weaken the opponent's strength as much as possible, and put Li Ke's name on the table? Spreading the trumpet will also lay a good foundation for future rule here.

This idea was unanimously agreed by Cen Changqian and others. Next, they drove four warships and began to advance along the Iberian Peninsula adjacent to the Mediterranean Sea. Whenever they saw a port of the Visigothic Kingdom, they would enter with artillery "Chaotic" bang a pass.

It's just that because the ammunition on the warship is limited, the time of each bombardment is very short, and the damage to the port facilities is limited, but it can have a good publicity effect, and even the Visigothic Kingdom even set up a bomb for them. The title of "Zeus Scepter" is specifically called Li Ke's fleet.

The reason why there is the title of the Zeus scepter is mainly because when the artillery is fired, there is fire and loud noise, which is no different from thunder and lightning. Zeus is the king of gods in Greek mythology, and he is in charge of the most powerful weapon in the universe. The most powerful weapon is thunder and lightning, and the scepter in his hand is not only a symbol of royal power, but also his weapon. This is very similar to the artillery in Li Ke's fleet, so Li Ke and the others have got this title.

Following Li Ke's bombardment of the coastal ports of the Visigothic Kingdom, it naturally aroused the anger of the Visigothic Kingdom, but there were not many navies in their kingdom. The one that Li Ke eliminated in the Strait of Gibraltar last time The navy has already accounted for one-third of their navy, and the rest of the navy is distributed in various ports along the coast. The assembly may not necessarily be the opponent of the Zeus scepter fleet.

Facts have proved that those few Gothic nobles are still very far-sighted. Ten days after the bombardment of Dingis, the navies of several ports were assembled and began to encircle and suppress Li Ke and the others. Although there are more generals than the one-eared generals before, but because of coordination and other issues, their strength is not as good as the one-eared generals, so they were quickly defeated by Li Ke.

It was also the failure of this siege that made the Visigothic Kingdom finally realize the gap in strength between them and Li Ke, so the navy of the Visigothic Kingdom never dared to fight against them again, and even bombarded the port. At that time, these warships just huddled in the military port and could not come out. Some navies were worried that the opponent would rush into the military port and destroy it, so they temporarily blocked the waterway outside the military port in advance.

With four main warships, a very powerful Visigothic Kingdom dare not fight back. Such a brilliant record can be called the first time in the history of the entire Mediterranean.

And with the passage of time, the identities of Li Ke and the others were gradually found out. It was only then that they suddenly discovered that the legendary Tang Dynasty in the Roman population was so powerful that it was just a group sent to escort the prince. A small fleet can defeat the Visigothic Kingdom helplessly. If there are more such fleets, wouldn't even the Romans be their opponents?Capital Datang 664

When the news of Li Ke's bombardment of the Visigothic Kingdom spread to the Eastern Roman Empire, it also caused a huge commotion in the entire empire. Both the nobles and the common people were glad that they had such a powerful ally as Datang.Especially Irina felt proud and proud of Li Ke after hearing the news.At the same time, many nobles also began to deliberately narrow their relationship with the queen's family, because they all knew the special relationship between Li Ke and Irina.

At the same time, Dashi also received the news that Li Ke had entered the Mediterranean Sea, and also knew about the war between Li Ke and the Visigothic Kingdom, but contrary to the excitement of the Romans, the upper echelon of Dashi was worried about this. In fact, they have already been overwhelmed by Datang, but they did not expect that Datang's navy is so powerful, and this is only a small fleet. I heard that the Daqi Empire, which is of the same line as Datang, has an even stronger navy. , Dashi has such an opponent, it is really depressing to death.

It was also Li Ke's record in the Mediterranean that made them receive warm reception from the cannibals when they passed through the Suez Canal and the Red Sea.And at this time, Li Ke doesn't need to hide his identity anymore. After all, it is different from when he came here. Dashi could prevent him from entering the Mediterranean Sea before, but now he dare not prevent him from returning to Datang, otherwise he will wait to bear Datang and Daqi anger!

In addition, when Li Ke was in contact with the Dashi officials, he deliberately expressed his desire to enter the Mediterranean Sea again if he had the opportunity next time.As a result, as he expected, although the upper echelons of the Dashi expressed their welcome on the surface, they hinted to him in many ways that the Mediterranean Sea will be their battlefield with the Romans, and outsiders are not welcome.

Li Ke didn't care about this at all, and he wouldn't take the threat of the big cannibal to heart. What's more, when he came again next time, he wouldn't simply go to the Roman Empire as Dashi imagined, but It is to take root and sprout in the Mediterranean!

It's just that if Dashi doesn't get stuck in the Suez Canal in the Red Sea, it still needs the help of Datang and Daqi, and even brothers Li Zhen and Li Yun.Therefore, after Li Ke left the Red Sea, he immediately rushed to Taiwan as quickly as possible, intending to discuss with Li Yin a practical solution!
