Chapter 65: The Harbor

Margaret, who hadn't been so happy for a long time, had a growing affection for Eugen. Moreover, with the approval of the church, at least it can show that there is no problem with Eugen's position.

In this way, Margaret has no reason to hate Eugen.

On the way back to Schönbrunn Palace from the church, Margaret invited Eugen to ride in the same carriage with her, and the two chatted happily in the carriage.

Along the way, Eugen didn't say that he was in his heart, but he also told Margaret some basic information. Margaret finally understood Eugen's contact with the mafia, and said that she could give Eugen some support on behalf of the Grand Duke.

Eugen is overjoyed, and this guarantee can be said to be too important. With Margaret's assurance, the whole of Italy was monolithic, with the mafia and the aristocracy working together to fight the terrible disease.

When he returned to Schönbrunn Palace, one of his attendants approached Eugen and gave him a letter from Rambo from Messina. The letter gave a brief account of the mission, and stated that the next step would be to contact the local nobles and gather strength to fight the disease.

Eugen also showed the letter to Margaret, who had nothing to doubt and immediately wrote a letter and sent it to Florence. The letter made it clear what was going on here, and asked the family to support Eugen's actions.

Seeing that this matter ended successfully, Eugen also showed a hearty smile. Heidelberg's affairs were left to Mordesal, and Eugen didn't have to deal with it anymore. He decided that in a few days, he would go south to his fiefdom to establish a castle, and at the same time he could go to the front line and personally direct the war against the Black Death.

........

Messina, the largest port in Sicily, suddenly announced a complete closure two days ago. All ships are not allowed to go to sea, and those that have returned are to dock outside the port and are not allowed to enter the port.

The news caused a great shock throughout Messina, with a loud shout in the city and even an angry crowd clamoring for revolt. After all, the whole city lives by the sea, and not letting them go to the sea is equivalent to cutting off the livelihood of these people, so it is no wonder that it will cause such a big fluctuation.

However, in the end, all the voices of resistance subsided, and although the people complained, they still did not make any substantial resistance.

The reason for this is because it was the local underground emperor ---- mafia who announced the news of the port stop.

At this moment, Rambo was standing on the lookout at the front of the harbor of Messina, looking at the ships around the harbor. So far, everything is still under their control, and no ship dares to go to sea.

As for those ships arriving from outside, they were all parked outside the harbor for more than two days, and only after checking that there were no sick people above were they allowed to enter the harbor.

Now, some of the ships have been stuck for three days and are starting to move into the harbor one after another.

Triangle Eye stood next to Rambo, holding a small notebook in his hand, and said according to the contents of the notebook: "Mr. Rambo, according to the records, there are no ships from Gafa City among the ships entering the port at this moment, and no sick person has been found, so now it has been allowed to enter the port. ”

Rambo nodded, their purpose was to block the influx of disease, so as long as they stopped those who were sick, they would naturally be able to successfully achieve their goal.

There was no problem with this idea, and Rambo and Don Ofarucci discussed it and finally decided to go this way. At the same time, with the mentality of preferring to kill the wrong and not let go, Rambo stopped all the ships, but so far only two of those ships have come from the direction of Gafa City.

Rambo gave special treatment to the two ships of Galla, asking for a week to observe them. At this moment, I saw a small spot faintly appear on the sea in the far distance, and it seemed that another ship was about to dock in Messina.

While Rambo was paying attention, the fathead fish under Triangle Eyes suddenly ran to the lookout from behind and said, "Mr. Rambo, you have a letter from Vienna. ”

Rambo hurriedly took the letter from the fathead fish, and saw that the lacquer was indeed Eugen's letter. He immediately opened the envelope and took out the stationery, and quickly skimmed through it.

Among the ships entering the port was a multi-orbital galleon from Venice, named the Gunevere. The captain of the Gunnevere was standing on the deck, glaring viciously at Rambo and the others on the lookout, and spat hard into the sea in front of him.

He knew that it was these mafias who prevented their ships from entering the port, and they had to do some kind of inspection. As a result, in the past two days, he lost an unknown amount of gold coins.

In his heart, the captain already hates these mafios.

On the lookout, Rambo and his entourage looked at the letters in their hands, and their faces became more and more ugly. Triangle Eyes looked at Rambo's face from the side, knowing that something seemed to be happening. But Rambo didn't say it, and he didn't want to ask questions.

Finally, Rambo finished reading the letter in his hand. His whole body trembled violently, as if he was about to fall backwards, and his face showed an expression as if he had seen the end of the world.

Triangle Eyes was about to ask a question, but Rambo suddenly jumped up and shouted hoarsely towards the harbor in front of him: "Stop those ships!" Don't let them in! Stop them! ”

Rambo roared as if he had gone mad, and he pulled out the sword at his waist, wielding it like a samurai half as hard as he did.

Triangle Eyes and the others were stunned for a moment, and immediately ran to Rambo and shouted after him. Although they didn't know what was going on, they chose to follow Rambo's orders.

Some mafia members in the harbor were guiding the ships into the harbor when they suddenly received orders from Rambo, and they were all a little overwhelmed. Moments later, however, the people who reacted began to tell the ships to turn around and go back.

The captain of the Gunevere was furious, and he couldn't help shouting at the mafia, "You damn monkeys, I've had enough, my ship is coming into port now, and no one can stop me." ”

The mafia members on the shore saw that the boats did not obey the order, and without saying a word, they took out their muskets from their bosoms, pointed them at the ships in front of them, and opened fire.

A series of loud bangs were heard, and a light cloud of smoke drifted over the sea. These muskets don't have enough range to fly to the ships, but the momentum is still very scary.

The captain of the Gunevere was taken aback and immediately remembered the horror legends of these mafia. Although he was a little reluctant, he still ordered his crew to prepare to slow down and leave the port.

"Wait, what's going on with that ship? How it doesn't slow down. Standing on the lookout, Rambo suddenly noticed a ship rushing towards the harbor at high speed, the same ship he had just seen, coming from a distance.

The triangular eye next to him suddenly changed his face when he saw this ship, and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Rambo, this ship is the Stasia, and it is from Gafa City!" ”
