"Free the slaves!"

"Fight for freedom!"

"Don't be free, I'd rather die!"

The slogans of abolition were resounded on the battlefield - these three slogans were repeatedly shouted during the great slave revolt in West Africa 500 years later, and finally became the slogan for the burial of the Solomonic dynasty. But at that time, people never imagined that the two ancestors of the Solomon Dynasty actually shouted such a slogan, in the battle of the Maldives that decided the ownership of the sea rights of the Little Western Ocean.

In fact, in later generations, no one knows about the Black Taizong Gudit of the Solomonic Dynasty. Solomon played a huge role in this great war. Because the credit for this battle was attributed to Chen Defang, who was almost scared to pee his pants, and Lei Batian, who later became the commander of the British Navy.

In the historical materials and the reports of the Nanyang Fleet and the British Navy at that time, there are records of how Chen Defang responded calmly, how he took the lead, how he inspired the morale of the soldiers, and how Lei Batian was good at fighting and how brave. And Goodit. In historical records, Solomon was just a hostage of the Solomon family who waited by Chen Defang's side throughout the war, and was overwhelmed by his bravery and wisdom. After the war, he even recommended himself as a pillow and became Tran's lover, and later became Tran's agent in the Atlantic trade and the West African El Dorado, earning him a lot of money. In short, the queen of this slave kingdom in West Africa is just a puppet manipulated by Tran......

And in real history, the situation is certainly somewhat different.

"Damn black female slave, let your master whip your tits hard, those two balls of meat seem to be huge......"

An Arab pirate leader was captured by his slave oarsmen by Ghudit. Solomon came to him. The pirate leader was still stiff-mouthed when he was dying, and he said humiliating things about Goodit.

"Haha, thank you for the advice, I'll pass it on to my master, and I'm looking forward to his whip." Goodit. Nor was Solomon angry. Instead, he laughed, "But now it's time for you to go to hell too!" After saying that, he swung his scimitar and cut the throat of the other party.

"Ma'am, we've taken this galley!" A strong black warrior rushed to Goodit, gave a salute and reported happily.

"Good!" Gooditt jumped onto the bow of a ship with great skill. Then he shouted in Arabic to the newly freed slave oarsmen on deck: "Fighters for freedom! I, Goodit. Solomon, the Indian crown princess, the wife of the brother of the Ming sage (Chen Dexing's black sister-in-law?) Here's a declaration that you're free! ”

"Long live freedom!" A group of newly freed slave oarsmen were ignorant, and they couldn't recognize Goodett's true face, and they shouted long live when she flickered them.

Goodit waved his hand, and the crowd stopped shouting. Goodit said loudly again: "Your freedom is not easy to come by, and it is even harder to defend it!" The battle against the sinful Arab slave owners is not over! She drew her scimitar. One finger is the endless Arabian galleys and sails on the sea. "There are also eight hundred Arab pirate ships there, and there are at least eighty thousand evil Arab pirates on them, and if they are allowed to win this war, all of you will become slaves again, and you will not even be able to save your lives!"

And this kind of thing!?

A group of slave oarsmen who had just won their freedom were all startled, and they all gasped when they turned their heads to look over. The sea was filled with Arab warships, sails of all colors almost obscuring the sky.

It turned out that these slave oarsmen were stuffed in the oars cockpit after they went to sea, and they could not leave it after eating, drinking, and Lazar. I don't know what's going on out there. During the battle, the hatch will be locked to prevent them from coming out.

So they don't know where they are. I don't know how many enemies and how many allies. Just now I saw someone enter the paddle cockpit and thought that the enemy had won a great victory, so I was confused and followed together to fight for freedom.

But I didn't expect this freedom to be so easy to get!

If I knew this was the case, I should have been an honest slave, and I could survive as a slave, and I still stuttered, right? This is also the right to live, and this right to life should be more important than liberal democracy, right?

But there is no regret medicine in the world. When did you hear that slaves who had rebelled could still shrink back? Even if we retract, those Arabs will not be able to spare us!

This time, I really got on a thief ship, and I couldn't wash it by jumping into the Indian Ocean. It seems that we can only follow it to the end! These slave oarsmen who regretted it all showed sad and indignant expressions, even the slaves were not stable, and if they didn't work hard, would they still have a way to live?

"Not free. I'd rather die! "Goodit. Solomon raised his arms and shouted, as if he were not a black-hearted female slave owner, but a female Spartacus.

"It's better to die than to be free!" The slave oarsmen on the deck roared along. There's no way, now it's not a choice between freedom and death, but between death and death. However, the consciousness of these people cannot be compared with that of the white slaves led by the Datong Party in West Africa 500 years later. They are all really good slaves - good slaves who want to be slave owners! And a considerable number of them later became slave owners, and they were the backbone of the beginning of the Solomonic dynasty.

"It's better to die than to be free!"

"Fight for freedom!"

The shouts rang out from all the captured Arab oars and boats, drowning out for a moment the sound of cannons, explosions, and shouts of fighting, and even reaching the "True God's Truth," which was overseeing the battle behind.

"What are they shouting? How does it sound like Arabic? "Scholar pirate Isfahan. Yusuf heard the shout, but he didn't understand it for a moment, or he thought he was hallucinating.

"It's not free, it's better to die......"

Someone on the left and right answered.

"What!?" Isfahan. Yusuf was stunned and stunned, "Isn't that the ship of the Black Jew Solomon?" Aren't they the great slavers of Zela? How can they ......."

Zela's great slave trader is pretending to be Spartacus! Is there anything more absurd in the world than this?

"Damn Jews! Hellfire for everyone! "Isfahan. Yusuf jumped to his feet and cursed.

However, the curse is not a substitute for the sudden reversal of the situation on the battlefield. Due to the sudden strike of the black Jews Solomon and the abhorrence of the Arab oars and the slaves on board, the oarsmen defected. Tran's right-wing situation immediately reversed. The Arabs were defeated on their backs. Eighteen galleys and boats that did not have time to retreat were captured, two of the black Jews who were pursued on the way back were rammed and sunk by boats, and three others ran aground on the beachhead and cut off their masts to surrender. In the end, only seven barely managed to make it back, but most of the Arab warriors were killed. There is no combat power left.

After reversing the situation on the right flank, the slave traders, disguised as Spartacus, turned to the left flank, and fourteen "rebellious" Arab galleys and six black Jews themselves were slaughtered under the command of Goodit. The battlefield on the left flank, which had been a stalemate, was suddenly reversed, and the Arabs fled in disarray, and in the end twelve Arab galleys were captured and four sank. Two ran aground, and only twelve ships barely retreated. What a loss this time!

Eighteen plus twelve plus ten...... That's thirty ships! Chen Defang, who originally had no reserves in his hand, now has thirty more oars and sails at once, and there are at least seven or eight thousand more soldiers!

This is a great victory! It's a big win!

Chen Defang suddenly found that he was a famous general who could go down in history! The water battle in front of him is not much worse than the time when his brother killed the Mongol Khan on the Sichuan River, right?

Famous general, it turns out that it is nothing more than that...... Later, Chen Defang did become a famous general. Under his name, there were not only the victory in the Battle of the Maldives, but also the Battle of the Ganges, the Siege of Delhi, and the Battle of Lahore. After the destruction of the Delhi Sultanate, the British Emperor also engaged in a three-decade tug-of-war with the Brahmanical indigenous states of Tianzhu. In 30 years, he did not meet an opponent, until the 10,000-character flag was planted in every corner of Tianzhu.

Chen Defang is awesome. On the other hand, Gallavin, Maher and Isfahan. Yusuf was dumbfounded.

They couldn't shoot it when they only had 21 ships. Now that they have fifty ships, how can this battle be fought?

Moreover, on his side, the three waves of major offensives collapsed, not only losing more than 40 warships, but also more than 200 warships were damaged to varying degrees. Some had broken masts, some had their hulls set on fire, and some had their sails broken into rags. The decks of many ships were washed and washed with shotguns, and the dead were piled up like mountains.

It was expected to attack from the flanks. Drag the entire Chinese fleet into hand-to-hand combat, and rely on the outnumbers to resolve the battle.

But now it has become this virtue. Who is still in the mood to take part in the fourth wave of the Death Journey?

It's impossible to attack anymore!

Kafiel actually won!

The Celestial Cult is losing the Indian Ocean!

All the Arab pirate captains on the battlefield were well aware of this. They are not a regular navy after all, but a group of pirates who have been temporarily assembled. If the war goes well, they are a pack of wolves, swarming up and fighting for their prey. If the war is unfavorable, they are a rabble, and no one will be half a step behind in order to flee for their lives.

The reason why everyone was willing to charge hard before was because victory was in sight. Everyone wanted to get the artillery and steel armor of the Chinese - and now the countries of the Heavenly Sect have also begun to imitate cannons. However, because it has just begun, the results are not obvious. Therefore, the Delhi Sultanate opened a high price to buy cannons, and a Ming 3-inch cannon can be sold to Delhi for 20,000 dinars! As for the steel armor of the Ming Dynasty, it is the favorite of the nobles of the Delhi Sultanate, and a pair of steel armor is sold for two thousand dinars with their eyes closed.

But now. Everybody knows the idea. Those pirate captains who led the charge in front are now either killed in battle or crying to death, and who else is willing to rush behind? Rush to death?

At this time, the "True God's Truth" had quietly turned its bow and sailed towards the "East", which was supervising the battle further behind. Isfahan. Yusuf stood at the bow with a worried face, wondering how to survive the hard days ahead.

The Arabian pirates lost, and 1,000 pirate ships were defeated by 21 ships with cannons. This shows that the future naval warfare will not rely on the pirates boarding ships to fight, but on the sharpness of the cannons. In this regard, the Arab pirates did not have the slightest advantage. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty will soon open up African routes, and when the time comes, they will definitely block the routes to Arabia. The trade routes between the East and the West were about to be diverted, and the Arab pirates would not only not be able to grab anything, but they would not even be able to trade.

It looks like our Arab pirates are going to be the first bankrupt pirates ever! Isfahan. Yusuf thought dejectedly. At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed in his ear: "True God, what is on the east sea?" ”

"That's the sails! It's the sails! Fang Fan of Chinese warships! ”

Chinese warships?

Isfahan. Yusuf jerked his head up and looked to the west, and saw several sails suddenly appear at the intersection of the sea and the sky! It's not the hard sail of the lucky ship, but the soft sail that is blown up by the wind - the tall mast and the huge soft sail are almost the hallmark of the Ming Navy warship!

He hurriedly raised the binoculars, and the sails and masts in the eyepieces suddenly became clear, the mast was as tall as a cloud, and the sails were white and bulging, looking very huge! This is a "New World" class? It seems to be a little bigger than the legend!

Isfahan. Yusuf, of course, saw not the "New World" class, but the "Oceania" with 108 5-inch guns! Immediately after, one sailboat after another appeared in his eyepiece.

Not a battleship, but a fleet!

Gotta run away! Isfahan. Yusuf immediately made a decision. If he hadn't fought before, he might still have the confidence to fight. Can ...... now Even other people's pirate ships can't win, and they dare to compete with the fleet? A bankrupt pirate is better than a dead pirate.

"Quick, quick, get on the 'Vostok'!" Isfahan. Yusuf yelled loudly. He was not yet frightened and knew that he had to take Emile Gaerawin away. This emir of Basra was the one on whom he would be able to live in peace. If you don't become a pirate, you can at least become an official in Basra. And the rich man Maher also had to be taken away, and Basra City was indispensable for this rich man.

And Maher's "Vostok" is too conspicuous, and it is not fast enough, and it will soon be overtaken by the "New World" class. So the emir had to be put on board his "True God's Truth", the fastest Arab ship in the Indian Ocean, one of the fastest!

Although the "True God's Truth" certainly can't outrun the "New World" class, this ship must be faster than other Arabian galleys, and that's enough. Now there are still 900 Arab oars and sails on the sea, how many of those Chinese warships can catch up? As long as you stay up until dark and are not chased, you can escape from Ascension. (To be continued......)
