Fragmented dreams......

In the dream, the tunnel cracked like a spider's web, and a large piece of cement fell in front of the car, and the yellow soup of the lake poured in from all directions, stirring up huge waves and lifting Zheng Anyue and his car into the air.

Fall...... Fall......

Zheng Anyue sat up suddenly!

The wrought-iron bed frame shook and made a "squeak" and "squeak" sound, and the silk quilt as light as a cloud slipped from the side of the bed and spread silently on the ground.

"It's ...... Where? ”

He looked blankly at the classical and luxurious English-style bedroom in front of him, and his dilated pupils gradually condensed.

Memories revived......

He hugged his head and smiled bitterly: "How can it be like wearing it again, but here...... Home. ”

The home is a luxurious bedroom of 100 square meters.

The plaster roof is overhung with a large wrought iron chandelier, and the floor is covered with a woven carpet of Axminster.

The pale yellow cashmere wallpaper on the walls is the latest steam weave of the moment, and the wallpaper is covered with oil paintings, documenting the Battle of Gravolinne, which was in full swing.

Under the oil painting is a large wrought iron bed painted in pure white.

The bed frame's soaring curved grille is a reference to the London Bridge, and a Gothic-style wooden bookshelf is placed next to the bed, and the bookcase is opposite a Victorian-style single sofa that sits against the room's fireplace.

There is no fire in the fireplace, and the plain cabinet stands around the hearth, only two palms wide, with three beautiful decorations on the side.

On the far left is a Doucai porcelain display panel from the Chenghua period, in the middle is a wooden table clock in the shape of Big Ben, and on the right is a model of a sailing ship named the Golden Deer, with the nameplate of the model reading: "For Lorraine, my dear brother".

Lorraine is Zheng Anyue.

Three years ago, a mudslide brought him from 21st-century China to 18th-century Europe, where he became the second son of the hereditary Baron Drake. Arnason. Drake.

Strange environment, strange times, strange celebrities.

He thought he didn't know anything about this era, but he was lucky enough to escape a lifeless killing, and he was lucky to inherit everything from a drowning teenager, including a strong body, excellent talent, and a happy family......

He rightfully took on a new life carefree and carefree.

There is no need to think about what the future holds, because in this day and age he knows no more than the original Lorraine.

The Drake family is a traditional navy family.

Its ancestor Francis. Drake is a legend in the history of British naval aviation and one of the main founders of the Royal Navy.

More than 200 years ago, he was ordered by Elizabeth I to sail the Golden Hart across the Atlantic, plundering French, Dutch and Spanish merchant ships in the New World as a privateer merchant.

Later, the Spaniards blocked his way home, and he became separated from his men, discovering a new route to the Pacific Ocean south of the Strait of Magellan, the Drake Passage.

The Drake Passage broke the Spanish and Portuguese monopoly on the trade routes between East and West, and British maritime merchants rose to prominence, making Francis the second adventurer in the world to complete a round-the-world voyage and the first to command the entire circumnavigation of the globe.

Upon his return, he joined the military and as a vice admiral initiated the Battle of Gravoline, defeating the Spanish armada, making England the first maritime power, and Francis knighted for his official duties, thus establishing the Drake family.

To this day, his descendants have become an indispensable leader of the Royal Navy.

Lorraine's father, Elijah. Drake is the current patriarch, hereditary baron, vice admiral.

Not long ago, Elia was appointed Admiral of the Royal Navy's New World Fleet, and awaited the delivery of the new flagship HMS Lion, before departing for the port of Kingston, Jamaica.

Lorraine's half-brother Shack. Francis. Drake is the next Patriarch, ten years older than Lorraine, and now a lieutenant commander in the Royal Navy and captain of the Channel Fleet HMS Sea Lion, with a great future.

Lorraine is not simple, either.

Since the age of eight, the child has been on the sea with a relative's fleet, visiting India, the Americas, circumnavigating the Cape of Good Hope, and boarding a research ship that used to go to the North Pole.

After drowning in the Arctic, the new Lorraine returned to shore and was admitted to the Plymouth Naval School under Elia's arrangement, where he studied for two years, learning drills, command, charting, fencing, and navigation.

As a third-year student at the Maritime Academy, he was already a sergeant in the Royal Navy and an assault captain on HMS Heir.

At the end of this vacation, he will take part in a one-year internship in sea exercises. When he passed the sea exercise, he would officially serve as a lieutenant and become a young officer in the Royal Navy of Great Britain.

This was the trajectory of Lorraine's life.

By middle age, he might become a general, a colonial admiral.

He wanted to go to the East Indies.

Because it is close to China, one day, he may be able to use the identity of a crooked nut to open up the wisdom of the people to his soul compatriots.

However, God played a big joke on him.

This morning Elijah returned from the dockyard in Devon Harbour, and spoke to him in a mocking tone about a trivial joke in aristocratic circles.

The famous anti-British fighter Patrick. Mr. Henry, who gave a speech at the just-concluded Virginia State Assembly, said "Freedom or Death."

Lorraine had never heard of the name of Mr. Henry before, but this slogan unexpectedly awakened the memories of his past life.

1775......

The speech of the Virginia State Assembly, the gunfire of the small town of Lexington, Washington will take over the banner of North American independence, the vigorous war of independence is about to begin, and a great era is about to begin......

After the loss of the rich North American colonies, the contradictions in Europe will be completely intensified, the French Revolution is just around the corner, and Napoleon will get out of the ruined Sicilian farms and start his own hegemony on the vast European continent.

Washington, Napoleon, Archduke Karl, Peter I, and the British duo who ended Napoleon's legacy, Nelson in the Navy and the Duke of Wellington in the Army......

It turns out that I am not ignorant of this era.

In a trance, Lorraine survived the day, fell into a real nightmare at night, and relived the mudslide in an even more tragic way, and for a while could barely recall everything around her, as if she had re-crossed again.

Why?

At this time, after such a nightmare, what does God want to tell me?

He got out of bed in a daze, walked barefoot to the dressing mirror, and saw a tall, thin white teenager in the mirror.

With black curly hair and brown eyes, his skin was pale, whiter than the average Caucasian, and he was tall and strong, with slender hands and feet.

He is a Viking and Anglo-Saxon half-breed, with brains, strength, skill, two-life composure in his body, and a prestigious family behind him.

"The great era is coming, with these, are you willing to be a subservient navy?"

He muttered to himself, and suddenly saw the reflection of the Golden Deer in the corner of the mirror.

Francis. Drake's Golden Deer is sailing on the fireplace, with its head held high, its sails puffed, riding the wind and waves, and moving forward.

Lorraine walked over and gently picked it up.

"The Golden Deer, a light galenic three-masted schooner, twenty-three meters long and six meters wide, fully equipped with crosssails, bow and stern spinnakers, top sails and slash sails between the masts, and eighteen cannons. It is the legendary pirate, the legendary adventurer, the legendary merchant, the legendary officer Francis. Drake's flagship, known as the Pirate King's car. ”

"And its owner is just a privateer merchant......"

Lorraine's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

The privateer merchant is the true darling of the times, ever-changing.

In the face of their enemies, they are ferocious pirates; In the face of friends, they are generous businessmen; Encounter mysteries, they are fearless adventurers; Entering the battlefield, they are fierce warriors.

They sailed the vastness of the seven seas, piloted ships of the same size as the navy, and were on the one hand rulers of backward lands to be taken away, and on the other hand they were the rich and powerful men of the civilized world.

Freedom, autonomy, self-confidence, self-righteousness......

He wanted to be like that.

Because the coming new era will be the last and the most magnificent......

The Age of Discovery!
