Georgia nodded: "Yes, the girl I know was indeed sent to the Inquisition by the bishop of the region in the name of a witch, and was tortured to death by the bishop and others inhumanely. ”

Speaking of this girl, Georgia's face was full of grief and indignation, which showed that he and the girl in his mouth were not as simple as friends.

Gladys didn't ask Georgia what the relationship was with the girl, because even an idiot could see it, wouldn't it?

"Actually, that girl is not a witch at all, but the bishop took a fancy to her beauty and took revenge on her when she prayed to her without success."

Georgia knows the reason for this very well.

Gladys said: "Women, sometimes they are too beautiful, and sometimes they bring disaster to themselves. ”

Georgia's voice was low, and there was a deep sadness in her tone.

She was only fourteen years old at the time, and how could she react to the bishop, who was already in his fifties. And she rejected the bishop's plea, which seemed to me nothing wrong at all. ”

Georgia was still a little excited when she mentioned this incident at the beginning.

"But that's why she's been slandered as possessing demagogic powers of darkness and being a shrine maiden." Georgia's teeth squeaked! Creak! 'Rattle.

In order to save the girl, her parents sold the vegetables to buy indulgences, hoping that the bishop would be gracious enough to spare her. But they knew that their daughter had died under the torture of those beasts. ”

"But the bishop joined forces with the Inquisition to deceive the poor couple and squeeze them out of their fortunes."

Georgia's story comes from what he saw and experienced.

There is an incomparably dark humanity in it, and it is very cruel.

It also exposes the most shameless nature of the church and their original sin of greed and darkness.

But it's exactly such people. But in the name of God, he did evil and oppressed the good people on the European continent.

This has to be said to be a very ironic thing.

Equal! Friendship! Fair! Fair! There is no such thing in the church, but betrayal, betrayal, intrigue and subterfuge, and all kinds of original sins are happening all the time.

This is completely different from what the bishops of the Church advocate.

These people say one thing and do another, which is simply a typical example of double standards.

"Georgia, don't worry. The church has no foothold here in the Americas, it's not Europe at all, and their approach won't work here at all. ”

Gladys said to Georgia.

Georgia nodded and said, "Of course, the church is not omnipotent, and if there really is a God, then they have done so many evil things. Retribution is long overdue, isn't it? But the bishop who committed such a sin has now gone to the Vatican, and I have long since ceased to have faith. ”

Gladys couldn't comment on this, after all, Georgia's experience was something he didn't have.

Then, the two of them chatted for a while, and they talked about pirates again—

Dividing Line –

lake ontario

Dozens of tin fishing boats, which will only appear in later generations, float quietly on the quiet lake.

Not far away, one was bought from pirates. The already somewhat dilapidated Spanish sailing ship was parked there.

After Zhang Tie bought this ship, he barely repaired it and sent it over and handed it over to Song Hu.

And Wang Hu wants to come to such a Spanish sailing ship, the main purpose is to do a test.

Sou!

This time. Five or six figures appeared on the quiet tin fishing boat. On the shoulders of these figures, they were carrying an iron pipe-shaped object, and then a flash of fire flashed from the front of the iron pipe, and a line of fire quickly rushed towards the Spanish sailing ship.

About a dozen seconds later. The dozens of fiery red lines hit the hull of the Spanish sailing ship.

Rumble!

The entire Spanish sailing ship suddenly disintegrated and burst apart, turning into debris and spilling on the surface of the lake with a huge explosion.

Song Hu on a tin fishing boat not far away put down the monocular in his hand. Bar sighed and said to the adjutant beside him: "The power of this cottage shoulder-mounted bazooka is not bad, and the wooden hull of this era can be disintegrated and lose combat effectiveness as long as it is fired by fifteen bazookas at a salvo." ”

The adjutant standing beside Song Hu replied with a smile: "Yes, although we don't have enough ships at sea now. But with such fishing boats and shoulder-mounted rocket launchers, we will be able to control the situation at sea. And it can also be promoted to the army and become a weapon for land warfare. ”

Song Hu nodded: "It's a pity, that is, the fishing boat is too small to carry up to thirteen people, and the effective range of the bazooka in the cottage is only fifty meters, which is a bit disappointing to me." ”

The adjutant said: "My lord, this is already very good, isn't it, at least we have this kind of weapon in the cottage, and it is still very effective and powerful." The shipborne guns of sea ships of this era had a short range and insufficient accuracy. With the tin fishing boats, we can easily get close to the other party's boats, and then what awaits them will be destruction. ”

After listening to the adjutant's words, Song Hu agreed very much in his heart.

Yes, no matter how the iron fishing boat is, its mobility is not to be underestimated, it is much faster than the sailboat of this era, especially its steering ability, which is incomparable to the sailboat.

Therefore, this kind of tin fishing boat can easily get close to the sailboat and then use the cottage shoulder-fired bazooka to kill the opponent.

A tin fishing boat can carry at least 50 shoulder-mounted bazookas, with a capacity of 13 people.

This means that tin fishing boats can be guaranteed to be sustained, making them more terrifying and lethal.

"Homecoming!"

Song Hu ordered.

Bump Bump Bump!

Every tin fishing boat was equipped with an engine, so when Song Hu gave the order, he didn't have to be as troublesome as a wooden sea boat, and he could start it immediately.

"Now that I have one hundred and twenty ships in my hands, do you think that this kind of strength can be handed over to Zhang Tie and immediately put into the matter of suppressing those pirates."

On the way back, Song Hu asked his adjutant.

As senior leaders, whether it is Song Hu or Zhang Tie, they now have adjutants on their side.

At the time of encountering some problems. They would discuss it with their lieutenants, so as to avoid unnecessary mistakes in their arbitrariness.

It's not the early days, and they have to decide everything.

The adjutant thought for a moment: "According to the information sent by Manhattan, the pirate ship has gathered more than four hundred ships. And it is still increasing, but their hull is large, and the mobility is not very strong, so this kind of iron fishing boat still has a great advantage. ”

Then, the adjutant analyzed the advantages and disadvantages for Song Hu.

When the adjutant finished analyzing, he said to Song Hu seriously: "In my opinion, one hundred and twenty ships are enough to deal with these pirates. Although these fishing vessels are not allowed to go on ocean-going voyages. But it's still okay to fight in the near sea. ”

After listening to the adjutant's analysis, Song Hu weighed it.

"In that case, what are we waiting for, let's hand over this maritime force to Zhang Tie immediately. The pressure on his side is much greater than ours, so it's better to have him solve the pirate problem right away. ”

Song Hu made up his mind to hand over this maritime force to Zhang Tie so that he could use it to deal with the pirates who were peeking at Manhattan.

After all, pirate matters have been dragging on for a long time.

If you solve it one day later, you will have one more day of danger, and when you buy a fishing boat that has accumulated iron. Aren't those pirates accumulating energy?

Therefore, every night and day will be one more point dangerous.

"Take the St. Lawrence River to the Atlantic estuary and then to Manhattan. Manhattan now has sixty-seven sailing vessels of all kinds, plus one hundred and twenty tin fishing boats. Those pirates can still be dealt with. When the British faced the Armada of the Spaniards, didn't they only have more than 300 ships? You must know that the Spanish team had no armada at that time, but it had thousands of warships. ”

With Song Hu's order, everything became very easy.

When they returned to the lake. The adjutant hurriedly conveyed the order.

One hundred and twenty tin fishing boats, all loaded with diesel, began to stream in from St. Lawrence and the river that connected Lake Ontario. Left Ontario.

As for the diesel fuel problem after the iron fishing boat arrived in Manhattan, that is something that Zhang Tie has to consider.

At the same time, each ship carries fifty shoulder-fired rocket launchers.

This is already Song Hu's limit, after all, here in Lake Ontario, the number of this kind of copycat bazooka produced every month is very limited, and at the same time, it is very troublesome to buy seamless steel pipes from the virtual world.

Therefore, if you want to produce in large quantities now, there are still many problems to be solved.

But, it will take time.

When Song Hu ordered 120 iron ships to leave Ontario and go to Manhattan, a city belonging to Zhao Hongyu's empire was slowly developing in the Detroit area, west of Ontario.

The administrator of this city is the Chinese gene person who was cultivated by Zhao Hongyu in the back, in addition to Wang Shan, Zhang Tie and Song Hu.

The name of this genetic person is Wei Dayong, a native of the Northeast of the Virtual World Realm, twenty-three years old, with a primary school education.

Because he took Quebec at that time, solved the threat from the north and had a new function of the space-time trader, Zhao Hongyu created five genetic people and gave them the title of 'village chief', and let them be pioneers to open up new territory for themselves.

These five genetic people choose completely different places of development.

Some went to the southwest, some to the middle of the Mississippi River, and some to the middle of the Americas and near the Ohio River, and only he came to the place where Lake Erie and Lake Huron, which belonged to the Great Lakes region, and developed near the city of Detroit.

Because of the defeat of the Iroquois, there was no longer a hegemon in the Great Lakes region. And some small tribes were slowly absorbed and integrated into Ontario City by Song Hu.

Therefore, Wei Dayong did not encounter any threat at all on the side of Detroit.

Although there were quite a few small tribes here, their numbers were scarce, and it was impossible for them to pose any threat to Wei Dayong.

This area is rich in iron ore and is the main iron raw material mining place in the later rice country.

It's a pity that Wei Dayong's current skills are not enough to support him to dig iron ore here and use this resource. So when Wei Dayong first came here, he did the same thing as Zhao Hongyu did when he first came to the American continent.

They were all exchanged with local Indians for profits on rice and mustard, as well as other goods.

Furs, American ginseng, fresh mushrooms, and some loose gold particles...... In this way, after a few months of operation, Wei Dayong finally established a small village in this area.

All the people living in this village are genetically generated by the Chinese germline, and the number is about 700 people.

Because Zhao Hongyu had already confessed that when Wei Dayong and the five 'township chiefs' they cultivated later developed the city, they must all cultivate the genetic people of the Huaxia germline, and they must not cultivate other germline genetic people.

Because now under Zhao Hongyu's command, the number of genetic people in the Huaxia germline is somewhat disadvantaged, and the space-time trader has already given a reminder in this regard, so Zhao Hongyu is very attentive.

As Zhao Hongyu's subordinate, he must carry out the boss's orders, isn't it.

Although the Detroit area is rich in resources, it is now unavailable, which makes Wei Dayong a little disappointed.

Because it will make his development very slow.

But there is nothing he can do about such a situation now.

The entire small village houses are built with logs cut down from the nearby forests, after all, the Americas have a lot of forest resources in this era, so there is no need to worry about it.

Outside the village, the circular wooden fence serves as a city wall, providing safety for the genetic people living in it, so that they can live in it with more peace of mind.

Although the Indian tribes here are small and each tribe has a small population, the relationship between the various Indian tribes here is very complicated.

In the six months since Wei Dayong came here, he has seen many tribal vendettas.

And it was also attacked by some Indian tribes, and there were two or three such attacks almost every week, which is converted into once every two or three days.

That's a terrifying number of times.

Fortunately, Wei Dayong is not stupid, he has learned a lot from Wang Shan, Song Hu and Zhang Tie.

Therefore, he made good use of this knowledge and rallied a group of Indian tribes to unite with them against other Indian tribes.

And with his good weapons, he began to slowly show his head and feet in this area.

For everything that happened on the American continent, Zhao Hongyu, who was far away in Europe, could not know the way.

Now Zhao Hongyu is discussing with Mary about Spain. (To be continued.) )
