"God bless the King Henry, the Mary Rose, the Great Harry, and the Peter Pomegranate, all four of which are Clark galleons. The Elizabeth, the Golden Lion, the Intrepid and the Rainbow, four galleons, are the masterpieces of master shipwright Matthew Baker. ”

"Galen's ships are armed with muskets and a lot of crossbows, so it would be nice if they had guns."

Drake, the master navigator of England, introduces King Charles to the eight newly built legendary warships.

As the former overlord of the seas, the English civilization has many legendary warships, master shipwrights, and master navigators.

"These aren't the pinnacle of sailboats, I want a jumbo like the Sea King, and plenty of artillery."

Charles, as the lord of England, was not satisfied with the addition of eight new Clark galleons and galleons of Galen.

Matthew Baker, the master shipwright, said to their king, "Your Majesty, I need a drawing of the King of the Seas to make it. The newest Galen ship at the moment is the Revenge, which is under construction. ”

"Drawings of the Sea King, hard to come by. Shipborne artillery, which is even rarer. If this national war can be exchanged for the blueprint or fire ** paper of the Sea King, we England will become the empire on which the sun never sets again. ”

Charles boarded the four-masted galleon of the Elizabeth Galen and looked down at the English ships in the harbor: "As long as the country blocks the sea in times of war, no lord is the opponent of our royal fleet." ”

In the port of Lisbon, the armada of Spain assembled, Queen Isabella of Spain had conquered Portugal, and the fleets of the two kingdoms united.

The sail warships "San Martín", "San Juan", "San Marco", "San Juan Batista" and "San Mateo" were moored in the harbor.

These are the legendary warships of Portugal.

"All the sailors and soldiers of the St. Martin, are willing to serve Her Majesty."

Duke Medina Sidonia and the captains pledged their allegiance to Queen Isabella.

"We have too little population in Spain, so we should divide more land."

Queen Isabella also knew the shortcomings of Spanish civilization.

The Spanish civilization has the Spanish phalanx, the Invincible Armada, the Knights of Santiago, and the complete range of troops, and there is really no obvious shortcoming of the troops.

However, the population of the Kingdom of Spain was not large, and after the annexation of Portugal, the population was less than that of France.

Population, as the most important resource in Lords, is a problem that every king needs to consider.

Population is even an important indicator of the size of an empire.

An empire with a population of hundreds of millions is very different from an empire with a population of 10 million.

At present, the only empires with a population of hundreds of millions are the Han Empire, the Mongol Empire, and the United States.

Queen Isabella's Spain and Portugal together have a population of more than 20 million, so Isabella has to think about how to increase the population. Otherwise, she lacks a voice in the Western continent.

"The Armada will let them know that we Spain should have a greater say in the 'crusade' conquest and divide more land."

After returning from the Council of Kings of the West in Zurich, the "crusade" conquest joined by Queen Isabella began.

And the kings of the West, including Isabella and Charlie, are veritable kings of the crusaders.

The city of Istanbul, the Golden Horn, Alexander the Great, and the Ottoman Sultan Xurem, who was captured by Alexander, inspect the reconstituted Mediterranean fleet.

The Ottoman Empire's "Naval Reformer" Kemar Reis, the legendary pirate "Redbeard" Barbarossa "Hayreddin" and other famous naval generals gathered.

The era of great exploration not only belonged to Europe, but also gave birth to a number of famous naval generals or pirates in China, West Asia, and North Africa to compete with European civilization.

Spanish galleons, galese warships, light rowboats and sloops dotted the Golden Horn.

The Atlantic Ocean belonged to England, Spain, and the Netherlands, while the Mediterranean Sea was divided between Macedonia, Rome, and France.

Alexander is still at his peak as he enters middle age: "This time, Hayreddin, Kemar Leis, you lead 30,000 of the most elite soldiers to follow me to the national war. ”

Kemar Reis, Barbarossa Hayreddin, and other famous Ottoman naval generals had to submit to the new king of Asia Minor.

Eumenes said to Alexander: "King, this is the list of expeditions—Belisarius, Seleucus, Antigonus, Hephaestion, Ptolemy, Leonidas, Breda......"

"So be it."

Alexandria listened to the list of fifteen famous generals who went out to fight, and nodded by default.

"Shrem, you command the Sipahi cavalry and the Janissary legion, and go out with me."

Alexander asked the Ottoman Sultan, the Spartan king, the Hun chieftain and other vassals to go on the expedition.

Sultan Xurem said coldly: "If it weren't for the fact that Suleiman the Magnificent was killed by the generals of the East and the Janissaries rebelled, you would not have been able to conquer Asia Minor. ”

"That's fate. The Crusader conquest was about to begin, and this war was only a delay in the conquest. Even if you don't surrender, Istanbul will be conquered by the Crusaders. ”

Alexander's tone was equally calm.

Alexander's sharp edge to his momentum converged, but it was even more terrifying.

Sultan Xurem was also a strong woman, and although she was not as capable as Suleiman the Great, who was killed by Huo Qu's disease during the Third National War, it also took Alexander six or seven years to conquer Asia Minor, greatly delaying Alexander's expansion.

However, Alexander the Great at the peak was already a saint-level commander, Athens, Sparta, and the Huns were Alexander's dogs, and Sultan Xurem was finally defeated.

On the island of Malta in the Mediterranean, the fleet of the Knights Hospitaller of St. John of Jerusalem was assembled, along with the Genoese fleet, which was commanded by Andrea Doria, the famous commander of the Genoese naval battle.

Constantine came to the island of Malta and prepared to take the fleet of Malta and Genoa to participate in the Sixth National War.

"The Knights Hospitaller, the Carthaginian war elephants, the Genoese crossbowmen, the Roman legions, and the cavalry of the East...... In this national war, the two saint-level commanders must win one. ”

Constantine couldn't help but blush when he learned that in the sixth national war, he could get up to two saint-level commanders.

Saint-level commanders are quite important to a civilization, especially for a civilization with a small population, it can be a qualitative change.

In St. Petersburg, Catherine had a headache, because she did not have any decent naval generals.

"To build a shipyard on the Black Sea, and to produce at least 500 galleys before the start of the national war."

"Your Majesty, the emperors and kings of the Western Continent, they held secret meetings in the city of Zurich, but they did not invite you, it seems that you have been targeted by them."

Sophia reports to Catherine about an unsettling matter.

Catherine was ostracized by the Western lords.

"If it's just exclusion, it doesn't matter."

Catherine was worried about something more serious.

Catherine could not know what the secret meeting of the Western lords in the city of Zurich was, and only the king-level figures present at the meeting knew the content of the Zurich Conference.

Sophia put a list on Catherina's desk: "This is the list of generals of the Sixth National War. ”

"During the war, 400,000 troops were sent to the border. The Teutonic Knights have been active on the border frequently lately. ”

"Yes."
