In 1547, on the 5th of May, England was still giving Edward face, and it was a sunny day. At least it lasted most of the day on sunny days.

At noon, a carriage embroidered with red and white roses, protected by more than 20 knights around it, slowly marched forward, and if the nobles of insight saw it, they would know that it was the carriage of the Tudor royal family, who ruled all of England.

The dirt roads built in the area gradually hardened under the long rays of the sun, as if to alleviate the symptoms of motion sickness of the teenagers in the carriages.

That's right! The procession of carriages that sailed along the dirt roads of the area was the entourage of His Majesty King Edward, who had recently left Fort Hudley.

After striking a deal with Baron Thomas at night, Edward rushed to Portsmouth with his maid Lucie Luna and more than twenty of the guards who had eaten and drunk at the wedding feast.

In fact, almost the entire English Navy was stationed in the small city of Portsmouth, so when you come here, you can find the English Navy.

Portsmouth was a small port when King Henry V founded the navy here in 1415, but it has since been expanded to become a British naval base and shipyard.

Gloucestershire is 94 miles from London, and a mile equals 1.6 km, so Gloucestershire is about 151 km from London.

Portsmouth is a port city at the southwest tip of England, located 70 miles southwest of London, with a population of about 3,000 people.

It is bordered by the commercial port of Southampton in the west, the English Channel in the south, and the mouth of Portsmouth Bay, and the location is very dangerous.

And the city is located on Porttin Island. However, the island is only separated from the main British island by a body of water to the north, and is connected by several bridges, making it look like a peninsula. The west port of the city is like a bottle, and the entrance is less than 270 meters wide. The sea area of the port area is more than 6 kilometers long and 3 kilometers wide, which can accommodate huge ships such as aircraft carriers. The harbor is calm and easy to defend, and with the Isle of Wight as a natural barrier, it has long been the largest and most important naval base in the United Kingdom.

And from Gloucester to Portsmouth it was about 135 B

, which is equivalent to a distance of 216 kilometers.

At that time, horse-drawn carriages traveled almost five kilometers in an hour, and Edward had to travel in a horse-drawn carriage for three and a half days based on twelve hours a day.

So, at this time, our Majesty Edward was already lying in Luna's arms dizzy, ready to relieve the pain of her body with the tenderness of a girl.

Every night, the carriage is the hardest to sleep, even with a thick goose-down quilt. So, Edward counted Luna's little peaches to sleep, and of course, Lucy's little oranges.

"Your Majesty! Ten miles ahead is the city of Portsmouth! Sean, the big man who was leading the knights in front of him, was sitting on a horse, holding his right chest with his left hand, taking off his hat with his right hand, bowing forward slightly, and said to Edward in the carriage.

"Oh! Is it! Let's speed up! Edward was surprised to hear Sean's voice outside the car, and couldn't help but say to the driving groom.

"As you wish! My Majesty! The groom in the car immediately responded.

"Do your bidding! Your Majesty! Sean's voice outside the car was still so loud that even Edward in the car felt a little deafening.

"Ladies and gentlemen! It's time to cheer up! Sean kept wandering around the carriage, shouting at the guards in his loud voice!

The knights, who were relaxing, suddenly sat upright, and they silently began to urge the horses under them to speed up, and basically no one dared to say anything.

The acceleration of the carriage gave Edward an even greater sense of vertigo, but the long pain was better than the short one! He had to endure it.

Then Edward and his party cautiously crossed a wooden bridge that was only eight feet wide and a mile long, and only then did they see the real city of Portsmouth.

Half an hour later, in front of Edward and the others was a dilapidated city wall. and the bazaar within the city walls.

The entire wall is more than 20 feet high, about seven meters high, and because Portsmouth is a port city, the city wall is only half encircled.

Looking at the small city wall in front of you, the height of a two-story building in the countryside in the 21st century, such a wall was a joke in ancient China. But in Europe today, this is already a good defensive structure.

The guards at the city gate saw a carriage slowly driving in front of the city gate, followed by more than twenty knights.

It's a great opportunity to fish for oil! The young guard couldn't bear it anymore and just wanted to jump out and grab some benefits and enrich his wallet!

"Hey! Bub! You're dying! Old Lacey, beside him, hurriedly patted Mock on the head to stop his reckless behavior.

"You're dead!" Old Lacey's nervous look and the wrinkles on his old face were rolled up, which further highlighted his old state.

"Little Mock! Don't you see the pattern on the carriage! Old Lacey lectured him, his mouth resting on his ears, and his hands tugging at Mock's sleeves.

It wasn't until Edward and the others had walked past that he let go of his voice and continued.

"That's the royal carriage!" Old Lacey's words were not long, but they were no less than a thunderbolt exploding in Mock's heart, which scorched him inside.

"That! Thank you Uncle Lacey! Mock said in a trembling voice.

"Little one! Let's learn slowly! Old Lacey was back to his usual laziness, but Mock never looked down on him again.

Passing through the city, the chaotic streets and buildings form a strange cobweb, and many medieval towns developed haphazard rather than planned construction.

In the Middle Ages, cities grew rapidly where transportation was readily available, workers were skilled, security was good, and food and water were plentiful, but civic leaders lacked long-term planning.

Many central cities, including London, Florence, Cologne and Milan, developed in the residential areas of Rome; However, with the exception of a few core areas that still maintain the criss-cross shape of ancient streets, their development in the Middle Ages was very different from the Roman town format.

Streets tend to conform to a rough central concentration pattern, but sometimes there are sudden and rapid changes, and the direction of the streets is often dominated by mountains, boulders, and rivers.

The streets of Portsmouth were less than ten feet wide, and the open ditches on both sides were littered with sewage and garbage, and suddenly a foul stench ran into the carriage.

And the knights covered their noses and sped up like the carriages. Head to Bojeste Castle in the heart of the city.

The curving streets make the city look bigger, and it also reverses the direction of the strong winds in winter, creating an even distribution of sunlight and shade, giving each house a different landscape.

This would also have a military purpose, with bends and bends making the invading army feel trapped in a labyrinth, which would help increase the defense of the defenders.
