At noon, the streets became scarcer, and they hurried home for lunch. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Only the merchants who looked in a hurry, still talking to customers on the side of the street or in the shop, wanted to buy high-quality timber from Constanta in large quantities and ship it to Istanbul for a high price.

Timber was in high demand in Istanbul because, after the Ottomans conquered the area, they began to invest in the construction of shipyards and the mass production of warships in order to provide a strong force for the imperial navy.

Today's sun is unusually hot, making people feel like summer is coming, and the dim sun spreads on the streets, which looks hot and dry, as can be seen from the shepherd dog lying in the shade with his tongue stretched out and panting.

Even more painful were the beggars squatting on the street corners, who could only face the sun without any shelter, the stinking sweat running down their cheeks and into their necks, and the dirty clothes sticking to their bodies, disgusting.

Even when a passing well-wisher threw them a few coppers, they didn't bother to get up to pick them up, and they didn't even have the strength to say thank you, and leaned loosely against the wall.

"Poor man. Zheng Fei shook his head and sighed.

"We're being targeted. Brad said coldly, with sharp eyes and professional killing intent.

"How could it be?" Zheng Fei keenly glanced around the tavern and found nothing unusual.

"The beggars outside are specially here to keep an eye on them, pay attention to their demeanor and demeanor, indifferent to the handouts of passers-by, obviously they can buy a large bucket of water to quench their thirst with those few coppers, but they would rather have a dry mouth than endure it, and what is even more ridiculous is that one of them has just picked up a silver flask and drank it...... All this shows that they are not real beggars. ”

Brad methodically finished his analysis and made a triumphant gesture.

Zheng Fei pondered, pondered for a moment, and gave him a heartfelt thumbs up: "The observation is really meticulous. ”

"It's my instinct, otherwise how could I be at large for more than ten years under the arrest of various countries?" Brad raised his wine glass, took the last sip of wine, and his eyes fell on the beggar on the street corner, with a solemn face: "Most of them are from the Harrison family, we may be in trouble." ”

"Not necessarily. ”

Zheng Fei smiled mysteriously, and then shouted, "Hans!"

Hans, who had two glasses of wine, was fighting with Santiago, and when he heard the summons, he immediately responded: "Yes!"

"Go back to the horse farm in the suburbs, bring our men into town, and hurry to the docks. ”

"Bring it all?......" Hans hesitated slightly.

"All. ”

Zheng Fei repeated, not knowing what he was thinking about, a smile could not be stopped on his face, and he leisurely took a drink from his wine glass.

"Well, you seem to have some secret weapon. Brad frowned as he smiled.

"You'll find out soon. ”

Zheng Fei shook his clothes, got up and walked out the door, ready to go to the dock.

Brad pouted and followed with the sailors.

Brad didn't know about the existence of Spartan descendants, and most of the people in the fleet didn't know about it, and Zheng Fei hadn't told anyone else before he set off to find Sparta in the mountains, after all, the less people knew about it, the better.

Walking through the spacious streets of Constanta, it was really hot as if he was sweating, so Zheng Fei called a few carriages.

The grapevine is true, it seems that the Ottoman Navy is really going to force a landing in Constanta in the near future, and the guards in Constanta have increased a lot, from a few thousand to 20,000 when they first arrived, and there is still a steady stream of troops on the way.

But it's a pity that these guards are all miscellaneous troops in Zheng Fei's eyes.

Oh no, in the eyes of the Spartan warriors, to be exact.

This is because the guards who came to defend Constanta were almost all melee troops, mostly sword and shield soldiers and heavy cavalry.

For one, the musket unit is a rare class of troops, and it cannot be withdrawn from the frontline battlefield.

Second, the town defense battle is mainly street fighting, which requires strong melee combat ability, the effective range of the medieval musket is not more than 50 meters at most, and the enemy can run in front of him in just a few seconds of charge, plus there is the cover of the iron shield, the musketeer can not play a role in the alley at all.

In addition to the melee troops, Constanta also brought in an artillery unit to build batteries along the coastline to inflict heavy damage on the enemy's fleet before they landed, but the artillery did not threaten the Spartan soldiers who were about to enter the city.

Just imagine, it is impossible for a commander to order the muzzle of the cannon to be turned and open fire on his own people in his own city, right?

on the carriage.

Zheng Fei leaned on the back of the chair and rested with Erlang's legs, seemingly leisurely, but his eyes were not idle, carefully observing the movements around him.

The wheel rolled against a rock and jolted, and Brad took advantage of the momentum to glance backwards.

"The beggars really followed, it was really unprofessional, and they even paid to follow them in a carriage. ”

"On such a hot day, if we run to the docks, they won't die. ”

The corners of Brad's mouth curled, and after a moment of thought, he asked, "Have you really decided to be an enemy of the Harrison family? ”

"When did I say I was going to be their enemy? I was going to give them business. ”

"What business?"

"You'll find out soon. Zheng Fei smiled like a pass, urging the driver to hurry up.

Brad couldn't guess what he was thinking, so he simply stopped guessing, and began to browse the beauties on the street, covering the scars on his face with his left hand, and whistling flirtatiously at the beauties.

"You know, a few years ago I went to a place in the north of Romania, where the girls were so beautiful and sexy that I would have been reluctant to leave if I hadn't received a big order. Hiss, stunners all over the street~" he said.

Hearing this, the coachman seemed a little excited, and pulled the reins and almost stopped the horse.

"You'll be back soon again. Zheng Fei squeezed his eyes and smiled.

Where is the north of Romania? In the 21st century it is known as Ukraine, the land of beautiful women.

"yes, then I can't wait. Brad rubbed his hands together and accidentally revealed the scars on his face, causing the girls on the street to scream.

"Oh my God, I thought it was a big guy, but I didn't expect it to be a monster!"

Brad covered his face in embarrassment, regretting for the first time that he had disfigured himself.

After about half an hour's journey, the carriage arrived at the busiest part of Constanta, the marina.

Thousands of laborers load and unload like ants, going back and forth between the deck and the ground, earning some hard-earned money to feed their families.

Officers and soldiers watched the ship that had just docked, fearing that there would be Ottoman raiding troops on it.

From a distance, today's pier seems to be different from usual, with countless soldiers crowded on the shore, waiting for them. (To be continued.) )
