At some point in the vast field on the outskirts of Port Hope, many messy tents like mushrooms after rain suddenly appeared, and piles of blazing bonfires complemented the burning city fire in the port not far away.

More than 200 Spanish soldiers who landed from the sea and thousands of Mayan warriors and handymen who acted together with them are here, admiring the eternal fire that burns the city and feeling the scorching heat waves blowing in the wind. Cheering and celebrating the victory he had just achieved.

Having finally won a pitched battle, Magellan will happily walk through the fertile fields, rubbing his hands together in excitement.

You can see canals flowing with gurgling springs everywhere here, and rice, wheat, corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other food crops are planted in a patchwork pattern, as well as peppers, carrots, spinach, eggplant, cucumbers, lettuce, watermelon and other fruits. Vegetables, some of which were not even recognized by the well-informed Magellan, but each

"...This place is really nice. It reminds me of the Indian maharaja's manor, which has much richer products than your Panama colony."

He conveniently picked a few small cucumbers that were not yet fully ripe and gnawed them while walking towards the camp, and at the same time happily said to Pizarro who was by his side, "...the sun, the beach, and the fruit seem to smell the smell of spices in the air." oh my god how wonderful it all is!"

Pizarro, who was still a little absent-minded at first, was slightly moved when he heard this: "... Spices?!"

"...That's right, I just saw that there are some cloves and nutmeg growing here..." Magellan dropped the little cucumbers that he had only gnawed a few bites, turned around and went to harm those red tomatoes "...It seems that the Chinese want It really took a lot of work to manage the land.*”

"...Hehe, but all of this is ours now! Hahahaha!" Pizarro raised his head and laughed boldly, "...I will go back to my hometown in Spain after I completely conquer this land. Move here and let the natives grow spices for me!"

"...It's best not to be careless. Although the natives were driven out of the city by us, their strength has not suffered much loss."

Magellan immediately warned with a serious face, "...now we have lost a lot of soldiers and ammunition is very consumed. Of course, it is not a problem to just loot, but if we really want to conquer this place, there will definitely be hard battles to be fought. I hope you don't take it lightly. ..."

Talking in low voices, the two bandit leaders stepped on the narrow field ridge to a small mound by the sea.

In one of the most beautiful places on the top of the mound stands a two-story color steel prefab house—it was originally a beach villa built by Desi and Princess Maca for themselves, or a residence of the Hongxiutizgan Kingdom. A palace.But after the Spanish landed, this building, only a stone's throw away from the beach and overlooking the entire harbor, became the field headquarters of Magellan and Pizarro.

Magellan and Pizarro walked side by side through a large area of ​​smoky and rough tents into this beautifully decorated color-steel prefab house.

Although the bright woolen curtains, lace-lined sheets, tablecloths, and all kinds of knick-knacks in the house have been taken away by the Spanish soldiers who broke in and robbed many of the solar panels on the roof, they were also blown up by a shell. Smash smashed a hole in the wall on the second floor by the way. [Just look for novel materials] But after the two commanders checked in, they finally went through some tidying up. At least the room on the first floor didn't look too messy.

After entering the room, Magellan and Pizarro first picked up two wet towels from the sink to wipe off their sweat, and then each picked a rattan sofa covered with mahjong mats to sit down.Then the Malay personal servant that Magellan brought from Southeast Asia brought them a large bowl of tropical fruits of various colors, a few plates of fresh mixed vegetables, and exquisite white bread found in this "villa". Candies, biscuits, and several bottles of Red Star Erguotou Shaojiu were all spread out on the long coffee table, allowing the two of them, who were already tired of the ship's rough diet, to have a very enjoyable meal for a while.

——Due to the backward shipbuilding technology, the sailboats in the early days of the great navigation age were narrow in space and the bottom of the boat was easy to enter water. The living environment was very difficult.Even the captains and officers of the privileged class usually have nowhere to go comfortably. They can only smell the rotten smell of sea foam and garbage in the damp cabin, eat maggot-ridden dry bread and bacon, and drink stinky water. If you don't eat fresh vegetables for a long time, your gums will swell and rot and you will suffer from the terrible scurvy.It is simply a dream to drink beer and eat seafood while enjoying the scenery, enjoying the sea breeze and sunbathing.

Under such difficult conditions, sailors are naturally prone to illness and death. It is common for half of the sailors to die in a long voyage, which is even more cruel than war.

After drinking and eating, Magellan and Pizarro started chatting while ordering the servants to make tea and prepare snacks while stroking their protruding bellies.Pizarro told some stories about his extermination of indigenous people and establishment of plantations in Panama, while Magellan naturally mentioned his adventure in the "Country of Gold" Inca Empire a few months ago.

"...When I was in the Inca Empire, I saw with my own eyes that the utensils and wall decorations used by the indigenous people for eating and drinking were almost all made of gold. The gold there was as cheap as our iron. Alas, the iron of the Chinese seems to be Cheaper Before I saw this villa, I really didn't think that they are so extravagant that they can use iron plates to build houses!"

Magellan bragged about his experience in the Inca Empire, while Pizarro was fascinated by what he heard, "...there is so much gold in the Inca Empire in the south? Hearing you say this is really fascinating! Maybe after the battle is over After the battle, we should prepare for the next expedition to conquer the land rich in gold-everything is good in this port under our feet. The only regret is that there is not much gold..."

"...though you won't find much gold here but silk and china are just as delightful! And these delicious sweets too."

While licking a large strawberry-flavored lollipop that he suspected to have snatched from a little girl, Magellan said enthusiastically, "...you see, this blue and white porcelain tea set on our table is worth more than a box of gold coins. It’s worth the money. Don’t say that in Europe, even in India, as long as you bring this set of tea sets to the market, you can get a whole box of gems!”

——As a Portuguese explorer who spent a lot of time in Southeast Asia, although Magellan did not set foot in the Ming Dynasty of China in this era, his eyesight for tasting various porcelains is definitely not bad.And the set of blue and white porcelain tea set found in this metal house before made him open his mouth wide as soon as he saw it - the whole set of tea set is beautiful in shape, smooth in lines and glazed in a rich blue color, exuding jewel-like The glossy outer wall is as thin as a piece of paper, and the sound is like a chime when tapped; the outer wall is also painted with patterns of swimming fish, bamboo forests, waves and mountains with oriental-style ink brushwork. The slap is so exquisite and vivid that it makes people sigh.

According to Magellan's speculation, this indigenous city is at most just a trading post opened by Chinese businessmen, and such precious things can be seen thousands of miles away from the mainland.Then the mainland of China in the east really does not know what kind of natural treasures and beautiful things are everywhere.

Although the Spanish soldiers under their command suffered many casualties in the battle, those who survived also gained a lot. The shiny stainless steel tableware, the bright silk and cloth, and all kinds of Chinese porcelain are more refined than the products of Venice. Exquisite glassware, spices, fine salt, various delicacies that have never been seen before, and more practical ointments that can treat wound infections... These things that were looted from the city while taking advantage of the chaos were brought back to the camp and counted one by one. The Spaniards were dazzled and overjoyed and couldn't help singing and dancing.

It's a pity that the aborigines in this place are really difficult to deal with, even if they retreat, they are very strict, so in yesterday's landing battle, they didn't have time to catch many women so that the tense soldiers could have a good time... This made Magellan a little bit Sighed regretfully.

However, although there were very few aboriginal women captured, there was still some for him, the supreme commander.

For example, at this moment, in the bedroom of this villa, there is a little indigenous girl who "respects" Magellan: the soft skin like wheat, the plump and plump body, the slightly raised breasts, and the smooth and slender thighs all make Magellan feel Obsessed.

Well, according to the confession obtained by interrogating the captives, she seems to be a princess named Tia of the local king... Thinking of the noble blood and cute appearance of this little girl, Magellan felt even more excited in his heart, as if a cat was scratching him, and he didn't even want to When it gets dark, I want to find a way to spend Pizarro and drag this delicious little princess out to enjoy...
