On the offshore edge of the island, waves have been set off on the surface of the sea, and the waves from the deep ocean have been exhausted, but for some smaller fishing boats or light merchant ships, it is a point to pay attention to. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the past, Levi's flagship, the flexible Devoe merchant ship off the coast, did not dare to set foot in the real North Trumming Sea, and could only operate in the waters around Dayinpan Island.

But now in the offshore area on the edge of this big silver pan island, a huge ocean-going ship has run over the undulating waves, even the waves surging in the North Roaring Sea, and it is difficult to shake it at all, but with the sea breeze puffed up by the ten sails on the four masts, it is like a terrifying giant beast floating on the sea, unscrupulously venting its power.

This is the Glen, the pride of the Spaniards, the ancestor of modern battleships in Europe, and the favorite of explorers and conquerors from the New World.

Levi's current flagship, a merchant ship that is not outdated in the Age of European Discovery, and now it is also the most hideous and terrifying arrogant monster in this new world, and Levi can guarantee that the Galen galleon under his feet is invincible in the North Trumming Sea.

Because Levi, who has been in the North Trumming Sea for two years, is sure that even the so-called ocean-going warships in this sea area are mostly equipped with ballistas, and even if they are equipped with dwarven guns, they are only installed at the bow of the ship.

The naval warfare in this world is only at the point of the Middle Ages on Earth, and a large number of ballistas and trebuchets are the mainstream, and the final victory of a naval battle is still determined by the sailors who are responsible for hand-to-hand combat.

Although in the era of artillery-ridden sail warships, broadside jumping gang combat was still prevalent, but it was also a last resort, if the enemy ship could be sunk alive into the sea from a distance of tens of meters, then why did it need hand-to-hand combat in close combat?

This is a world of asymmetry of the times, in the real world, there is only the law of the jungle, but there is no so-called mercy and chivalry, everything is a fight to the death.

Levi was standing on the upper deck of the bow, and at the bottom was the bow keel, replacing the ramming foremast and the crosssail, absorbing the power of the sea breeze and driving the huge ship forward, splitting the waves of the sea, and sailing on the edge of the shore near the coastline of the island.

The current galleon has 175 sailors, the huge hull and two decks, and the sailors have also been scattered, they have all kinds of sailors, gunners, observers, and sailors who are specially responsible for hand-to-hand combat are also holding mops on the deck, carefully and meticulously dragging the strips of wood that make up the deck under their feet, and wiping them very cleanly and shiny.

This is the real feeling of riding the wind and waves, which is completely different from the Dvo merchant ship and the heavy Galie warship, this is the real sail warship, crushed by the era from the earth!

Although the heavy galen warship is more than 30 meters, it belongs to the warships of rivers, lakes and offshore waters, and it is still in the concept of a ship, which looks like a slender shuttle, which is still far from the real ship of the Galen sailing ship.

Therefore, this Galen sailing ship cannot enter the offshore area of the Great Silver Pan Island at will, especially the ubiquitous reef can swallow any reckless warship, and the experienced captain will not let his eight-meter draft Galen sailing ship enter the offshore sea full of reefs, even if it is a diving port, it must be explored clearly before sailing in, otherwise the wood at the bottom of the ship can not match the quality of the reef, no matter how strong it is.

"There are a lot of reefs in this area, pay attention."

First Officer Green put down the telescope in his hand, and standing on the stern of the boat, he was also observing the sea in front of him, turned his head and glanced at the helmsman who was also cautious, and nodded reassuringly, or advised: "Be careful, don't relax." ”

"Understood." The helmsman was also an experienced middle-aged man, and his face was also looking ahead, not only he was observing, but even the bow and the top of the mast were sailors who were specially responsible for observation, and they were carefully scanning the surrounding sea with binoculars, cautiously paying attention to any abnormal currents.

The reefs around Cape Town are quite famous, and even they are very careful not to raise their sails and move forward at full speed, so they have to move forward very cautiously.

Fortunately, the previous light Galie warships had also briefly explored the surrounding waters in order to familiarize themselves with the waters around them when they were fishing, and except for a few reefs scattered on the edge of the offshore waters, the waters north of Cape Mountain were basically safe.

It was an excellent deep-water passageway, so the galleon could easily reach the north side of Cape Hill, where the makeshift fortress built on the pier of Cape Town was already in sight, and many sailors could even be seen standing on the rudimentary walls more than four meters high and cheering towards this side.

Most of the sailors recruited by Levi were from the Spanish Empire, so when they saw the galleon, which was almost much higher than the city wall, anchored in the deep water not far from the pier, they all had a smile on their faces, because that was the pride of their empire, a symbol of authority.

The Hall who stayed behind had also arranged for a light Galie warship to go over to take care of the Galen galleons that were docked in the deep waters, after all, like the dock of Cape Town, which is only more than four meters deep, can only dock fishing boats and large warships.

The docking of ocean-going merchant ships not only requires specially built ports and docks, but also needs to be a good natural deep-water port itself, in this era of wooden sail warships, the definition of deep-water ports is twenty meters deep, although the tonnage of merchant ships on the earth in later generations is not worth mentioning, but at present it is a deep-water port for sailing ships to dock.

The heavier iron anchor had been lowered, and the entire galleon had docked in the deep waters, and although there was no professional port, as long as it was not a very large storm, this huge warship could be safely docked in the deep water more than fifty meters from the shore like a wooden island on land.

And the short-barreled heavy guns on the side have also been prepared on the artillery deck, and under the windows of the black holes on the side are the large-caliber heavy guns that Spain has always loved!

These guns are not comparable to the 7-pounder guns on the warship, all the naval guns professionally cast for the navy are 24-pounder short-barreled heavy guns, although the effective range is only 200 meters, but a round of broadside salvo is more than 30 24-pounder large-caliber guns, comparable to the army firepower of a corps of the army, even more!

This Galen merchant ship has been able to completely block the mouth of the Yuqiao River, and even the sea area on the east coast of Dayinpan Island has been occupied by this hideous monster, and the first blow that any enemy wants to attack Cape Town will encounter is the violent bombardment of a total of 60 guns on the left and right sides.

"The light Galie warship has already arrived, and when the time comes, we will use ropes to carry all the supplies we have purchased to shore."

Standing on the side of the ship, Levi watched the six light galleried warships gradually rowing towards this side, and also stretched out his hand to make a gesture to the first mate Green who was directing the sailors to act, signaling that the warship that came to meet the side of the ship had arrived at its destination, and also commanded loudly: "Be careful, don't throw all our supplies for a month into the sea!" ”

"Your Majesty, please rest assured of this."

Although Levi's tone was a little joking, First Officer Green walked over and nodded very solemnly, the change of factions and countries and even beliefs did not change his calm character, he still nodded solemnly, and even regarded this order as the will of the king, and said very solemnly: "Everything will be completed successfully." ”

"Take it easy." Levi looked at the serious and solemn appearance of the first mate Green, and he shrugged his shoulders a little boringly, they had made a few jokes with each other before, but now it seemed that this kind of joke could not be made.

The change of identity had been deeply imprinted in the hearts of this group of sailors, and even those light Galie warships who had come to meet them took off their hats and bent down to salute when they saw Levi, and they all seemed quite excited, as enthusiastic as civilians meeting their kings.

Of course, Levy's current identity is really the king of the Spanish Empire, but he stood on the side of the ship, looking at the ruins of the still desolate Cape Town, his eyes swept over the simple temporary fortress, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

The sheriff's mansion from the game system is still waiting for him to be released, and it can become the most basic administrative unit of a city, and even the future recruitment and maintenance of soldiers will completely depend on the existence of this sheriff's mansion, after all, according to the experience in the game, this is the most important building in a city.

"It seems that we need to plan well."

Slowly exhaling a breath, Levi turned his head and glanced at the wooden barrels that were being slowly lowered by the sling, and his face was also a little dignified, especially when he swept through the ruin-like Cape Town, he still subconsciously clenched his fists and said lightly as if talking to himself: "This is the real beginning." ”
