All of this starts 500 years ago. At that time, it was still the dark Middle Ages, and the Holy See was in Europe. The power of the Papal Guard, which is the top existence in the whole of Europe, plus the Knights Templar, and all kinds of fanatical believers who have been brainwashed by religious concepts, military strength alone is not comparable to any kingdom. Moreover, if there is a war with the church, the brainwashed low-level sergeants themselves will have no morale at all, and even defect directly.

Relying on this power, the church has collected a terrible amount of money. The alchemists, the predecessors of scientific researchers, were all defined by them as heretics, and to catch them was to put them to death. There are also countless innocent women who have been slandered and tortured by the church as witches and burned alive. At that time, an ascetic of the Church, discovering this terrible darkness, had serious doubts about his faith. Sent on a mission by the Church to remove a so-called witch.

As a result, it turned out that it was just an ordinary girl. She is beautiful, kind, and a girl who is loved by everyone. Even, the ascetics fell in love with her, not the kind of love of men and women, but the love of the elders for the lovely juniors. The ascetic knew that something was wrong, and began to set aside the people of the Holy See to pursue it themselves. It turned out that it was the girl who rejected the courtship of the archbishop here, which led to the murder. The archbishop also seems to have quite a background, and is the illegitimate son of a big man in the Holy See.

The girl's father is not a good stubble, although he is only a knight, but he is the duke's own person. The archbishop did not dare to rob by force, so he could only issue an assassination order in this way to remove the traces in his heart. But the ascetics also knew that it was not a bad girl. You said that you are a monk, still in your forties, with a big belly, and the appearance of a pig, why should a girl in the prime of life take a fancy to you. This kind of bastard is the person he hates the most. However, the people were still not interested, and they repeatedly forced the ascetics to do it, and even threatened and spoke all kinds of evil words to each other.

The ascetic was angry and made a mistake, and directly killed the archbishop. After this, the ascetic knew that something had happened, and after thinking about it, he took the archbishop's belongings and began to flee. Unexpectedly, there is a very peculiar thing in this, which the Holy See must get. The Archbishop had also stumbled upon him during a field trip, and had just reported that the Templars had been taken away by the ascetics before they could wait for the Templars who had come to protect him.

Taking advantage of the fact that his pursuers did not appear, the ascetic fled overnight. Relying on this money, he also returned to the vulgar, began to do business, married a wife and had children. And that item, too, was found by the ascetics. Although I don't know what he is, the appearance of this ball is full of Catholic religious atmosphere, and any believer will think that this is a real artifact when he sees it. In order to commemorate his past and to protect himself from being discovered by the church, he hid the ball in the basement of his home and did not open it once for decades.

Unexpectedly, due to fate, future generations actually embarked on the road of studying the secrets of heaven and earth, and became a heretic in the mouth of the church. In order to shelter like-minded people, and to have a place to experiment and study on his own, the great-grandson of the ascetic discovered and opened this basement. No matter what they say, they are all people who explore the secrets of the world, how can they let go of the ball and not explore it. However, with the means of the time, it was impossible to unlock its secrets. The long-term research yielded no results, and the ball was temporarily locked.

Later, the church approached, and the researchers were urgently transferred. In order to prevent this miraculous thing from falling into the hands of the church, they used all means to hide it. When the limelight passed, it was locked in a special combination lock box, and it was also scandalized, so that people would not pay too much attention at first sight. Later, the Free Assassin League was established, and the box was handed over to the Free Assassin League for safekeeping. Unexpectedly, the church later encircled and killed a lot of people.

None of the people who knew about the item survived the hunt. Later, it was brought to the North American continent by Alexei's predecessors, and the number of Free Assassins in the League of Free Assassins was getting smaller and smaller, and it would be good to be able to keep these things, how could it be possible to explore what these things were. When he defected to Xiao Lin, he was cleaned up by Xiao Lin, and all the things he thought were valuable had been taken away. For the rest, Xiao Lin kept it as an antique, waiting for future generations to study the past development, which is still good.

Alexei and his men are helping Shawlin train agents and spies every day, and they don't have time to sort them out. Usually, it is a few old men who are hired by the company to take care of the maintenance. If it weren't for the fact that this hiding room was right next to the Secret Service Academy, anyone could have sneaked in. That's why the Templars felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it. As long as Sholin transferred all the elite troops to the front line to fight the British army, they could easily sneak in, get their things and leave.

Therefore, they must eliminate the surrender mentality of these nobles like Lin Man. Under the pressure of both the people and the locals, even if these nobles did not want to fight again, they could not blatantly surrender to the Yanhuang Trading Company. As long as they fight, they have a chance. It was very easy for the Templars from the Church to stir people's hearts. Relying on money and brainwashing, the Templars spent half a month pushing the boat down the river, and finally triggered an explosion of public opinion.

Their strategy was indeed more effective, and now that the three Earls of Linman were no longer thinking towards the surrender company. The three earls didn't want to be subservient to others and join the company, but they were more of a choice out of desperation. If it weren't for the formality, they wouldn't have had this idea. Looking at the current situation, if you really want to join the company, the people below will make trouble first. At that time, even if the riot can be quelled, it will be left with an incompetent image in the eyes of the company, and most of them will not be able to have a good position in the past.

The Templars had a next step, and that thought had to be extended to the private army. At that time, as long as Lin Man and the others had the slightest idea of surrendering, they would be overtaken by the private army, or even arrested. Neither Shawling nor Lin Man knew about the Templars' plans. Lin Man's men searched for more than ten days, but still didn't get any clues. The long-term private raid even affected Boston's commercial and agricultural operations, and in order to calm people's minds, Lin Man had no choice but to stop the raid.

Shoreling's spies were now largely scattered across the territory of the British, and the Boston men were temporarily out for a mission before the fluctuation began. When I came back, I checked with the private army, but I didn't find any clues. Shaw Lin also only knew that the British began to have an anti-corporate trend. For the first time, there was a rare surplus of the company's goods on their territory. To be honest, now, Shawlin really doesn't look down on the British.

All the Britons who were really able to take refuge in the company had already joined the company. There is no blockade on both sides of the border, and since these people don't come, it means that they are not interested in the life of the company. After eating the territory of the French, the number of whites in the Yanhuang Trading Company had surpassed the Indians, not to mention the Asians who could only be transported by the fleet of Igic. Igcik began to be busy with the affairs of the fleet, and the source of Asians was cut off. Too many whites are not a good thing.

As the leader, Xiao Lin and others are not white, and there are too many whites, and if they can't keep it, there will be dissenting thoughts. If it weren't for the fact that the company's reputation had spread across the continent and many Indian tribes had begun to defect on their own, Sholin might have put the police force and the newly established NSA on emergency alert. Since the British were reluctant to join the company, and the peaceful annexation of the British North American colonies was no longer possible, Shoren began to actively prepare for war.

The arsenal was in full swing, and bullets and shells came off the production line, were packed in a centralized box, and then escorted to the front line by tank troops. Apache led everyone to start building an arms depot as a logistical basis for future wars. The entire warehouse was guarded by the Night Stalker Special Reconnaissance Battalion, and with the means of the British, it was impossible to sneak in and destroy it. At the same time, the militia division began to enter a period of intense and high-intensity training, and when the time came for the battle, they had to guard the rear.

The final burden was the Ijik naval fleet, and after five months of intense training, they were finally able to drive the 037 submarine hunter and the 024 missile boat. It's just that the artillery shooting training is still a little close, and there is still not much accuracy at about 3,000 meters, and they really don't understand the fire control system. The company was already able to produce the diesel fuel needed for the two ships, and Xiao Lin bought a set of backward oil production and refining equipment from the Huaguo Petroleum Group as early as possible, and after cleaning up the tribal alliance that rebelled against the company, the construction began.

It was in the place of the original alliance of the Wolf Warrior tribes that rich oil deposits were found. Although the production was not much, it was enough for ten small boats. The maximum caliber of the guns on both ships is only 57mm, and it doesn't matter if the shells are made by the company. At the same time, of the ten ships under the original Igik, only the frigate has not yet completed the refit. All front-loading guns were dismantled, the deck was pressed down, and steam engines and steel plates were added to the gun compartments.

On the battleship, a Spitfire battery was installed, and at the same time there were three direct-fire defense 60mm mortar batteries, one battery with three mortars. And, of course, five batteries of 75mm caliber guns. Although the specifications are not several times that of regular naval guns, they are also direct fire guns that have only just been developed, and each battery also has two guns. The number of guns on the cruiser was only about two-fifths that of the battleship.
