……

But America will not be affected, because ...... He's got a map of North America! He knew exactly who he was, where he was, and where he was going. If he were given time, perhaps the daring captain would actually sail through the Bering Strait.

However, Amerigo did not have this free time, and according to Ferdinand's arrangement, he was now going back. Fonseca also has to go back with him, because he has been in Newfoundland for a long time, and he really should go back to see it (he is also an influential aristocrat). The second is the most important, to receive the centaurs, the big team!

……

By the end of 1495, Spain was ready to send a large number of troops to the New World, but it was embarrassing that experienced navigators were lacking...... This is not a small fight like Hispaniola, but all over the Americas, and even into the South Pacific.

Those who are mediocre lose a lot if they cause the ship to capsize or get lost or the team mutiny.

So veterans are needed to lead the way.

America is going back, and then next year with a few thousand men back to Newfoundland, and then starting from Quebec and going south, all over the east coast of the United States, and finally around the Gulf of Mexico, establishing various bases on the Canadian and American coasts.

In addition to the establishment of a base in North America, there is another place that is very troublesome, that is, the voyage to Chile...... This is very bad, because Magellan has been lost, mutinied, disappeared, and some of the ships fled back to Spain.

Although Ferdinand had a map in his hand, so the team knew exactly where they were going and how long it would take, not everyone had the stamina to run a marathon, and if the leader of the team led by him had poor skills, he would also die at sea, and there were many Atlantic shipwrecks in later generations!

So, which one is suitable to lead the fleet to Chile?

Yes, of course...... Christopher Columbus is gone!

You're still going to have to use him! This man was well versed in navigation, astronomy, and the calendar, and gave him complete maps and charts, and if his fleet could survive in the ocean, no one would make it to Chile.

……

But where is this guy Columbus now?

Still in the West Indies!

He was not supposed to return to Spain until March 1496.

He was either recuperating from his illness, building a city, or running around in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean following Ferdinand's instructions. But now it's supposed to be the governor's palace in Santo Domingo.

Columbus now felt that he still had some unexplored areas, and at the same time he felt empty.

It's really empty-hearted!

Go to the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean, and then go to the vicinity of the Cologne fortress to communicate in detail, Columbus is not good all of a sudden!

This "India" is too big, right?

Moreover, on the opposite side of the Isthmus of Panama, there is a very vast ocean!

Some also revealed speculations about His Majesty and his entourage......

Columbus drew a picture and immediately felt terrible, according to the information he had now obtained and some of the information he had heard......

What he found was a new wild continent! Not India!

As for India? It is also separated from this continent by a vast ocean, "The Pacific Ocean".

As for how this ocean will be navigated, and where exactly is India...... Then no one knows.

So Columbus is now afraid that His Majesty the King and Queen will be furious and tear up the agreement...... Moreover, his management level on the island is poor, and his popularity is not good, and he also knows that many people go back to complain to the king and queen.

There is no need for someone to denounce it, His Majesty King Ferdinand had personally come to the New World and knew his many black histories.

It's possible to go to jail if you don't get it.

Columbus really guessed correctly, he was going to be handcuffed back, but of course not this time.

Although appointed governor of the West Indies, Columbus was still unsteady. In order to appease the anger that might come from Iberia, Columbus collected some gold, silver, and pearls very hard, and decided to bring them back to His Majesty, at least to prove that he would not lose money in America......

But before he could get ready, Ferdinand asked him to hurry back.

Columbus was on his mind, but he still had to return to Spain.

Nervously arriving in Cádiz and then arriving in the port of Barcelona, Columbus once again saw the two kings of Spain.

They didn't seem to be dissatisfied. But after the meeting, Ferdinand summoned Columbus alone.

"After the analysis of many bricks and navigators, and my experience, I think that the place you have discovered is not India or China in the East, but a new continent."

"Your Majesty......" Columbus argued. However, after Ferdinand showed him the map of the world in the "Atlas of the World's Knowledgeable Tributes (Maps and Artillery Tricks All Rely on the Ming Empire's "Masterpiece of Conscience")", Columbus ...... Speechless......

Your Majesty, don't you want to take the opportunity to regret it?

If you have read the fourth chapter, you will know that Ferdinand really considered repenting.

But now, Ferdinand thinks that such a thing as repentance is too low-end and extreme to be promoted. Even if Ferdinand wanted to repent, he couldn't shout and say, "I want to repent!" "Instead, we should just do it and not say it, and regret it invisibly.

For example, he set up several provinces and appointed Columbus as governor of the West Indies, which was ostensibly a reward, but in fact limited Columbus's rights to the West Indies.

Under the Santa Fe Agreement, it was clearly impossible to give 10 per cent of the output of the Americas to Columbus. But the output of the West Indies, to make him a rich man in part of it, is no problem, so that everyone is happy.

Moreover, New York, Panama and other places were led by Ferdinand, and His Majesty had already snatched the claim, and Columbus could not say that it should be his newly discovered land.

But Ferdinand did not discuss this with him.

"Privately, you should admit it, right?" What Ferdinand means is, you just have to know what you know, I won't make a big deal about it.

Columbus breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that if His Majesty the King did not forgive him and tore up the agreement, then his future situation would be very bad. Not only do many people think that he is unlucky, but there are also many people who want his life. Because syphilis has spread recently......

He had no choice but to admit that the land he found "may not be India, but a hidden holy place". Ahem, don't forget to put gold on yourself......

"It's good to admit it, I'm afraid that if you don't admit it, you'll delay a big thing! I'm in this new world, and I have important tasks for you! Ferdinand said solemnly.

Hmmm⊙?⊙! Columbus also hurriedly made a serious statement, put away all kinds of careful thoughts in his heart, and could see that His Majesty was afraid that he really had something big to explain to him.
