w Barudis suddenly reacted and asked: "Where is your uncle Kun? No matter how miserable the Kuhn family is, they don't have to go to an orphanage, right?"
"My surname is Agot." Lilu smiled, "Kun is an uncle, not a blood uncle"
Barudis spread his hands: "At least I don't have an inexplicable niece."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
It seems that this room is isolated from the war between countries.
"Tell me about him." Baroudis finally brought the topic there, "I at least want to know how I failed."
"Well, he also told me that I can't talk about this until you ask." Lilu simply tidied the table, brought the meal and put the dishes on it.
After Barudis thanked him, Lilu began to talk.
"The situation in the Mediterranean is very complicated, and even Fang is unwilling to start a war with you there."
"Well, I already know this. He used those two traitors to lure him into starting a war in the New World."
"Yes, this is the first step." Lilu tried her best to say, and put on a serious and cold look, "There are two battlefields, namely the New World and the Mediterranean. Almost at the same time that you are in the ocean, our fleet and Hayreddin simultaneously began attacking Spanish ports.¡±
Barudis laughed dryly: "Where is my third fleet? Who killed it?"
"Hailedin." Lilu comforted, "The fleet was in Valencia and was suddenly attacked by Hayredin. However, Hayredin followed Fang's war principles and treated the prisoners well."
"That pirate? Treat the prisoners well?" Barudis said with a sad smile. "I guess there were no more than 10 prisoners in that battle."
¡°I don¡¯t know the specific things.¡± Lilu continued. "After that, we were flanked by Hayreddin and quickly annihilated the rest of your country's maritime power. The royal family had to surrender, just like Portugal."
"Well, just like Portugal" Baroudis was no longer very sad, "Where is Bashar? Bashar is the best at fishing in troubled waters."
"I guess they are fighting" Lilu prayed, "I hope everyone will treat the prisoners well."
"It's really like looking at Bashar's expression when he saw that fleet." Barudis joked.
The sound of a cannon interrupted their peaceful conversation.
Subsequently, more shells were heard from the port.
The guard rushed into the door hastily: "Miss Lilu. Please seek refuge inland!"
"Escape?" Lilu frowned, "This is Amsterdam."
"Yesbut please take shelter, God knows what will happen."
Just as he was talking, Camille rushed over in a hurry.
"It's not good. It's the British!" Camille roared, "Damn the British, they tore up the peace treaty and started an undeclared war. Are they crazy!"
"How is it possible" The British people in Lilu's mind were all strict gentlemen, or handsome men with unique charm. It was hard for her to believe that this neighbor would do such a thing.
"You said the British are calling?" Baroudis asked excitedly.
Camille looked at Barudis, nodded, and then said to the guard: "Tie him up, we are leaving here."
The guard responded. As usual, he walked towards Barudis holding the shackles.
"Child, don't do that." Baroudis suddenly smiled, as if he had changed from a gentle rabbit to a hidden lynx, "It's not good for anyone to attack me, right, Miss Lilu."
Lilu read a hint of terror in his eyes. Could it be that the Baroudis just now were all fake
"We have always treated you well, please come with us."
Baroudis looked at the food on the table and smiled: "Bacon, pea soupit's really a treat."
Then, he walked towards the guard step by step.
The guards were forced to retreat steadily by him.
"Get out of the way." Barudis said expressionlessly.
The guard swallowed and spat.
"Let him go." Lilu waved her arms. "Fang said, let him go when he wants to leave."
"Yes" The guard breathed a sigh of relief and gave way to the door.
Camille stopped in front of Lilu and watched Baroudis go out calmly.
"Thank you for the food." Barudis turned around and bowed after going out, and then left without looking back.
"A beast will always be a beast." Camille sighed. Then he took Lilu and walked out, "I have prepared the carriage. Let's go to Utrecht, which should be safe enough."
"No, Camille" Lilu said quietly, "Our merchant ship"There are cannons"
"Lilu! Wake up! Wake up!" Camille shook her shoulders crazily, "We are the Chamber of Commerce, and our artillery shells cannot match the Royal Navy of Great Britain! That is what the army should do."
"But the troops have all gone to the Mediterranean." Lilu shook her head, "If it were Fang, he would definitely go to fight now. I have heard his stories about fighting Japanese invaders in the East."
"Jesus, don't mention that name again," Camille growled. "Fang, Fang, always Fang. He has his armada, and we only have a few merchant ships full of almonds. Let's smash them to death." Enemy?!"
"Camille" Lilu said softly, "This is Amsterdammy home"
"We will take it back," Camille shouted. "The navy, or the damn Fang, they will come back and drive away the British. These things are not your responsibility!"
"If we leave, our ship will be snatched away by the enemy" Lilu lowered her head and muttered, "That is all our property The whole world is our trading partner I cannot lose my ship ¡¡±
"Fucking world, wake up! We only trade in two ports!!"
Lilu shook her head wildly: "I don't want to lose my ship, nor do I want to lose Amsterdam."
""
"Camille, let's go." Lilu finally shook her head, "I will lead the fleet to surround our city."
"Lilu, listen to me"
"I have made up my mind."
"" Kamil thought for a long time, and the sound of gunfire at the port became increasingly intensive. He finally took a step back. "I wish you good luck, Lilu."
He had no time to linger, so he rushed out of the door.
Lilu wiped her eyes and tried to be as strong as possible.
"So, you are not Fang, Camille."
?Outside the port of Istanbul on the Mediterranean Sea.
With the sinking of the last Ottoman warship, the hegemony of the Eastern Mediterranean ceased to exist.
Hayreddin handed over the mask of Agamemnon as promised, the difficult enemy was once again eliminated by the coalition forces, and the difficult-to-gnaw Mediterranean Sea was no match for the power of the diplomatic alliance.
Fang Xian didn¡¯t care much about Istanbul, but now he has a headache when he sees religion.
After a simple handover of work at the port. Fang Xian hugged Hairedin: "I'm leaving, friend."
"Well, as you wish, the Mediterranean will usher in long-lasting peace. My friend." When Hayreddin smiled, he thought of an old man. Maybe his skin was too rough.
"Admiral!" Gruhart broke the farewell between the two, "The British declared war undeclared, and Amsterdam was defeated!"
Faced with this news, Fang Xian was not surprised: "It's earlier than expected. It seems that the British will not sit still and wait for death."
"Barudis has escaped, Admiral." Gruhart continued to report.
"Isn't this exactly what you want?" Fang Xian laughed, "I'll give you a chance to have a fair confrontation with him."
"It's a great honor." Gruhart was obviously eager to give it a try, but then he showed a sad expression, "Admiral there is also bad news."
"Um."
"Your friendshe defended Amsterdam heroically."
"You mean Lilu?"
"Yes. Admiral." Gruddat bowed his head in silence.
Fang Xian was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "Not all friends have happy endings, she should run away."
As he spoke, he took out the handkerchief Lilu gave him a long time ago and rubbed it gently.
"He was fighting like you, Admiral." Gruhart said, "The survivors said that she fought until the last moment, and in the end the British army had to sink her battleship before they could enter the harbor"
"Follow me." Fang Xian smiled bitterly, "I will definitely run away in this situation. I fled from Macau to Indonesia back then. Why doesn't she know about this deed?"
"Admiral, in the legend you have never escaped. The legend only records your glorious side."
"Okay." Fang Xian waved his arm and let the handkerchief fly into the air, "This is her choice."
Gruhart didn¡¯t feel too sad when he saw Fang Xian. He breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "The Dutch fleet has begun to return. They hope to fight with us against the British."
"Sailors need to rest, we have been fighting for too long." Fang Xian shook his head, "We will go to Beihai in 10 days."
"But Admiral time waits for no one."
"I canIf you want the sailors to riot, are you afraid that the British will attack Hamburg? This is not your judgment. "
"" After being silent, Gruhart still accepted the boss's order.
Hayreddin witnessed the whole process, and sighed after Gruhart left: "I'm sorry, my friend, I made an oath not to sail out of this sea area."
"It's okay, that's the last enemy in the world, I can handle it."
For half a month after the Anglo-Dutch war started, the British army had been in Amsterdam.
The Dutch fleet had not received support from the Fang Navy for a long time, and finally could not bear to take the lead in the war. The entire navy, including the Kuhn fleet, suffered heavy losses under the British artillery fire. This was the first real battle they had witnessed. After several battles, the Dutch were defeated.
Kuhn fled all the way to Lisbon, where he finally met the Fang family navy who was undergoing repairs.
Although he already hated this unhurried guy in his heart, all he could do was beg him to go north as soon as possible.
In fact, Fang Xian did not deliberately delay. Because the plan to annihilate Spain and unify the Mediterranean was too urgent, the fleet had to rush to the Mediterranean non-stop after the battle in the New World to defend against Pasha with Hai Leiding. After a long battle, the sailors We are extremely tired, especially when facing an enemy like Britain, we must ensure that the fleet is in top condition.
Now the whole world knows that the Netherlands and the Fang Navy are allies, and the whole world also knows that the Fang Navy annihilated Baroudis in one round of artillery. The British are never stupid, and they must have something to rely on if they dare to start a war at this time. , Fang Xian did not dare to be careless.
Since the Dutch navy has been almost completely destroyed, Fang Xian simply did not worry. At the same time, he urgently recalled Li Huamei from East Asia and prepared a large and well-equipped Spanish sailing fleet for her. Welcome to come and your support is my biggest motivation. m
