Just as the people of Hungshutizgan in Hope Harbor were in chaos because of the approach of a strange ship. On the deck of a Spanish galleon, several Europeans commanding the fleet were also looking at this legendary port city of great wealth and treasures.

It is a pity that the first practical nautical telescope in human history was not invented until 1608 by the Dutch optician, Liberch, and then further improved by the Italian scientist Galileo to make it more practical - so when the Hunsutizgans on the shore used telescopes to reconnoiter the enemy, the commanders of the Spanish fleet, who claimed to be "civilized", had no telescopes to use, and had to rely on the naked eye to look.

“…… It's ...... Rocket?! Well, it seems, there's something really amazing about this place, unlike the natives elsewhere......"

A middle-aged man with a thick beard on his mouth stood on the foredeck of the flagship "Trinidad", squinting at the distant beach, especially an unidentified object that dragged the smoke to the screech, while pursing his lips and muttering so quietly.

The man wore a dark shirt and leather shoulders, and a large hat with ornate feathers on his head, and his appearance was also heroic, and his voice was steady and strong, with the air of a leader, but he seemed to be lame, which made him stand a little unsteadily.

Behind him was a dark-complexed, short-looking servant who was said to be from Southeast Asia.

He was the supreme commander of the fleet, Admiral of Spain, Fernando of Portugal. Magellan.

After more than a year of arduous sailing, Magellan's fleet finally rounded all of South America and came to the Pacific coast of Mexico.

Compared with the history of another time and space, Magellan's voyage in this time and space was obviously much smoother - because in September 1519, when the fleet was about to depart, the sudden news of "the discovery of Chinese in the New World" came from the island of Cuba, so the Spanish royal family paid more attention to this voyage, not only adding a large amount of money, but also sending court officials to select a group of reliable and loyal sailors for Magellan, replacing the original recruits from taverns and even prisons, It's a sloppy guy with a smoky miasma.

At the same time, of course, the ultimate goal of Admiral Magellan's voyage was inevitably made with some minor modifications.

Even more fortunately, the voyage of Magellan's fleet and Director Ma's "Pandora's box" against European germ warfare Jihua happened to be a time lag - when Magellan's fleet set sail, the "Pandora's box" was still in Director Ma's hands and was not given out. If Magellan had left a year later, Spain and Portugal would have ceased to exist by then, and he would have had to ask the Sultan of Morocco for help.

In short, thanks to the attention of the royal family, Magellan's fleet was rejuvenated, and there were no defections among the crew during the voyage, and the supplies and supplies purchased were more abundant than in history. He left Seville in September with five ships, and two months later reached the coast of Brazil, where he continued south to what would become Argentina's Tierra del Fuego. Due to the ideal condition of the fleet, Magellan did not order anchor in this wild place, but continued to look for a way forward, and succeeded in discovering the future Strait of Magellan, thus entering the Pacific Ocean.

During the passage through the Strait of Magellan, Magellan lost one of his smallest ships, the Santiago, due to the twists and turns of the channel and numerous reefs. Later, on a voyage north along the Chilean coast, another ship had to be abandoned by the fleet due to a severe water leak and a twisted keel. …,

From the seasons of Spain to the humid and muggy heat of Brazil, to the snow-capped island of Tierra del Fuego near the Antarctic Circle, and the dry deserts off the coast of Chile...... Magellan's fleet passed through one very different climatic zone, and the sailors of the expedition curled up in damp, cramped cabins, munching on rotten salted fish, salted meat harder than mahogany, hard bread with maggots burrowing around, cheese like a stone that cracked teeth, endured deadly scurvy and terrifying storms, and a drastic change in climate. Every month someone dies, and in addition to someone goes crazy. However, the desire for wealth and honor still supports them to overcome thousands of difficulties and dangers, and explore the strange unknown Shijie little by little.

-- I have to admit that the colonists who ate stinky meat and drank stinky water for three days and died of plague, but still gritted their teeth and crowded into wooden sailboats like livestock, burning and plundering them, although the most ferocious and cold-blooded shameless robbers, but if it were not for the knives of their ancestors and generations of villains, they would not have the comfortable life of today's Western lazy worms and wastes who play every day, do not work, eat welfare, give birth to children, and lose almshouses.

In today's China, some people are typical of being lazy before they get rich, dreaming all day long that they want to live a comfortable life like the Europeans, but they don't think about how their good life came about -- you have no problem learning from those Europeans who eat the benefits of their ancestors, but don't forget that their ancestors robbed, slaughtered, fought wars, or traded, no matter how heinous their crimes, at least they all suffered and played with their lives back then.

Of course, the above is all off-topic, and now let's get down to business.

Off the coast of Chile, the route of Magellan's fleet finally deviated greatly from the history of another time and space - according to the secret instructions of the Spanish royal family to find a "Chinese trading port" in the New World before sailing, he did not turn west at about 30 degrees south latitude and cross the vast Pacific Ocean, but continued north along the coastline of Chile and Peru in South America, driven by the Peruvian cold current.

According to Magellan's Jihua, he would sail north to the colony of Panama - Spanish explorers who landed off the Atlantic coast discovered the "South China Sea" (in fact, the Pacific Ocean) about seven years earlier over the isthmus, and founded a small town on the Pacific coast in 1519 - where he replenished his men and provisions, rested Zuihou, and then sailed north again in search of the legendary city infested by the Chinese.

But...... Everyone knows that on Shijie in 1520, between the deserts of Chile and the Isthmus of Panama, among the majestic Andean mountains, there was another ancient civilization in the Americas comparable to the Aztec civilization and the Mayan civilization - the Inca Empire.

So, Magellan's fleet, which went all the way north, came to the port of Tumbes in the Inca Empire in such a vague way, and then saw that this place was very prosperous, full of magnificent buildings piled up with huge stones, so it mistakenly regarded this place as a colony of the Chinese. When they found out that there was only gold and no silk and porcelain, they realized that they had found a new "El Dorado".

Look at the gold necklaces and earrings on the local citizens, the gold cups and dinner plates at home, and the gold-clad walls of the temple, the flowers and butterflies made of gold...... The Spanish adventurers, who had no mercy for the infidels, were so impressed that they turned their faces and drew their knives while wiping their greasy mouths, and slashed at the stunned master's head, despite the fact that the Inca officials had just warmly entertained them with a sumptuous feast!

In short, taking advantage of the brief gap in the lack of defense of the Incas, Magellan led more than 100 outlaws, under the cover of naval bombardment, broke into the city of Tumbes and plundered, and snatched a lot of gold and silver from the market and temple, which can be described as a big profit.

Unfortunately, although Admiral Magellan was proficient in navigation, his level of land warfare was obviously not very good, and before he could retreat after his success, he was besieged in the streets by the furious Inca warriors, and fell into a bitter battle, unable to get out for a long time. What's even worse is that the Inca emperor Capac happened to be on patrol near Port Tumbes at this time, and when he heard that a white-skinned monster had robbed the city, he immediately brought the Praetorian Guard to suppress it......

In such a scuffle, the group of soldiers and horses brought into the city by Magellan was almost completely wiped out, and a sailing ship ran aground on the reef because it was hastily pulled out of anchor and set sail, and as a result, it became the trophy of the Inca army. Only Mr. Magellan, who had only been hit by an arrow in the knee, limped away in a dinghy with a few cronies, and finally escaped from the port of Tembes in a hurry with the flagship Trinidad and another ship, the Victoria.

Then, Magellan, who was apprehensive, did not dare to delay any longer, and quickly continued north with the only two remaining ships, and finally arrived at the newly established Panamanian colony, and caused a sensation among the local Spanish immigrants.
