Old Sword Master

heretic has been withdrawn.

Coplulu immediately asked the secretary to investigate and understand the situation, and at the same time ordered one third’s troops to participate in the disaster relief.

“Bellebey Lord, Bellebey Lord, this is Abdullah Rahab mage who repelled the heretic.” Coplulu’s secretary came with Abdullah Rahab, “Last night , That is, he took the local righteous men to repel the heretic.”

“It’s you, Abdullah.” Coplulu knows such a strong mage. “You did a good job.”

“I don’t have the ability to repel such a strong heretic.” Abdullah Rahab waved his hand again and again. “It’s the heretic who retreated after burning and looting last night. You know your lord, the half-orcs are Pay attention to a quick action, hit and run.”

“The half-orcs are true, but if it weren’t for the caliph Your Majesty’s people who dared to fight them, they wouldn’t have such a stray style.” Coplulu laughed. Although Mage has enough IQ, sometimes EQ is not enough.

“Master Bellebey, I think this is suspicious.” Yusuf also followed to regain Bazaar. As the manager of the Lord, he has guard duties. It is guilty for him to escape. He succumbed to meritorious service, “And the enemy was killed from the fire escape yesterday, Abdullah Rahab, how do you explain this?”

He didn’t expect that the crimson sewage was made by this man and Wood together, but he was instinctively protecting himself, and he hated each other deeply.

“Most of my discipline was killed by enemy raiders, a Moorish apostate, very strong, Belle Bey must be careful.” Abdullah Rahab first talked about his loss and provided intelligence , And then held the (胸xiōng) with one hand, bowed his head and said, “When the heretic attacked yesterday, I did escape and escape. Yousef Lord’s accusation I have nothing to say, and this fire escape is indeed a heretic killer, but There are more heretic on the front, and the orcs are in trouble.”

“Hmph, talk about your own problem first.” Yusuf was coldly snorted, and he was about to say it again, suddenly finding that his body was being held down.

Copley really didn’t want to endure this guy’s shameless incompetence. This guy obviously didn’t keep his duties, so he hated him.

“Think about your own problems first.” Coplulu gave him what he said again, then waved his hand to let the guards take him away, “Abdullah, don’t worry, I will investigate later. Look at the fire exit, but don’t worry, you don’t have an official position, and it’s great to be able to organize the righteous people to repel the heretic. No one can blame you.”

“Many thanks, Lord Belbey.” Abdullah-Lahab greatly sighed in relief. Fortunately, Wood insisted on retreating overnight, otherwise there will be a bloody battle today. The Crimson servants he just recruited will have suffered heavy losses, and he His identity must be exposed, not to mention being able to hook up with Copley.

“Please write me a document first, and remember who played a big role last night, and you must not cover up the merits of the righteous people.” Of course, Copley likes to rule the righteous people to repel the heretic version of the facts. .

“Yes, sir.” Abdullah Rahab showed a dazed expression. Mage can’t be too stupid, otherwise it will be too late.

“I’ll leave it to you for the time being. I’ll give you 100 soldiers. I want to go back to Athens. There is still something to do there.” Coplulu has to go back to solve the 100 orcs in the city.

…

After leaving Athens, “Wooker Oil 01” not at all returned to Gandia City, but after leaving the coastline a little bit, it first went south and bypassed the Peloponnese, then turned northwest and entered the Adriatic Sea .

As they headed north day by day, the ships on the sea gradually increased, and on the tenth day they left Athens, the appearance of the ships also changed.

“Wood, wipe your face again.” Santaalali handed Wood a hot towel. This soft wool is the spoils of war from Rahmani’s carriage this time, as is the tranquilizer used to soak the towel.

Wood took the towel and wiped his face fiercely. Using the crimson sewage to fight, it would inevitably splash a bit. His battle was on the front line again, so the past few days used various methods to calm the mind.

“Lord Vernell.” Santaalali handed Vernell another towel.

“Thank you.” Vernell took the towel and wiped herself more seriously than Wood.

“Can that kind of ship go to sea?” Santaalali asked, pointing to a ship with the Dark Sun flag of the Roman church country, which was very different from her understanding.

“People are running on the sea, and you still ask if you can.” Wood laughed and answered Santaalali’s silly question.

“The bottom of the boat is so flat, the bow is round, and there is no oarsman. This speed can’t even run at 8 knots.” Santaalali felt that the reason was incomprehensible here. “Does it all depend on accelerating the array?”

“This kind of ship It shouldn’t be an acceleration array.” Wood shook his head, but he asked Vernell again, “Your Excellency Vernell, isn’t that?”

“?” Vernell stood on the deck, some thoughts did not belong, “Oh, flat-bottomed round-head boats basically don’t have an acceleration array, what they want is cheap, a 30-ton boat, maybe 1000 talers are enough. It’s no problem to run in the Adriatic Sea, and you can drive into the middle and lower reaches of the Po River.”

Wood answered the question Santaalali did not ask: “In the safe inland seas and rivers, this kind of boat is the most cost-effective. In the past few years, the Spanish fleet has been shielding the entrance to the Adriatic Sea.”

“Then their good days are coming to an end soon?” Santaalali was not slow.

“That’s not necessarily.” Wood was talking, and they saw a formation of neat and tidy, half a dozen giant sail boats were advancing from northwest to southeast, and behind them was a larger ship. It looks like there is at least a 300-ton Galen lined up.

The ship was hung with a golden black double-headed eagle flag, which fluttered in the breeze and reflected the ripples of the sea.

Chapter 300 77 Wood Sees Venice for the First Time

The city of Venice is established by connecting several islands at the northernmost point of the Adriatic Sea by means of canals and trestle bridges. It is a bridgehead connecting humans to land and sea, and has an extremely advantageous geographical location.

However, this advantage was not revealed until after the fall of the Roman Empire. Before that, the Roman Empire was able to deal with robbers, and staying away from the mainland seemed not so attractive.

In the process of the death of the Western Roman Empire at the Germanic Barbarian Race, the superiority of this place was fully demonstrated. Taking this as a stronghold was not only convenient for business, but also free from the threat of robbers.

About 1100 years ago, Northern Italy, one of the quintessence of human civilization, was repeatedly ravaged by Germanic bandits. Ancient Roman cities built on the mainland were ruled, destroyed, and declined by Barbarian Race. The fertile farmland could not be defended and could not be planted.

“Wow, that’s the Flying Lion of San Marco?” Santaalali’s hair was moving with the wind in the midday sun, weaving and dancing in front of Wood’s eyes. Of course, this is the same as the name of Wood-Lombard. It cannot be said that they must have Germanic Barbarian. Race’s bloodline can only be said to be 100 out of 1 possible.

Following Santaalali’s hand, Wood first saw many citizens in the city. It was true that most of them were Roman black hair. Looking down, Wood saw a beautiful bronze sculpture.

Wood and Santalili have seen ships with the flag of San Marco flying lion in Gandia City countless times, but the feeling of seeing the real thing is completely different.

Moreover, there are countless ships flying the flag of San Marco flying lion shuttles on the water, which is interesting to the sculptures of flying lions beside the channel.

“That’s the San Marco Major Sect Church?”

Some Romans who could not stand the swordsmen fled toward the silt and isolated islands, built churches here, drained the marshes, and reclaimed farmland.

The small towns they built here were protected by the rising Eastern Roman Empire and survived the collapse of Western Rome.

In the next 1000 years, the town grew and eventually destroyed and inherited the hegemony of the Eastern Roman Empire in the Mediterranean.
