Chapter 1538(Q.)? Do you know you very well?(1/3)
First, after Sofara was unwilling to fight with the Li family's fleet again, the unhealthy merchant Gianlonime de Espinosa lost several ships. Then, he decisively led a dozen remaining fugitive fleets composed mainly of Spanish square large Garen ships and the Dutch sea coachman's favorite commercial three-masted square sailing wide-body ships (the hull is wide and the deck is small, which allows for less taxes and convenient transportation of slaves) to run gorgeously!
He directly threw important port and trade stations such as Mogadishu, Mombasa, Mozambique, Madagascar and Sofara on the eastern coast of Africa to the Li Family Chamber of Commerce who came from afar. He led the fleet south and didn't know where he went.
But there is no doubt that the unethical businessman Gianlonimer de Espinosha must have been frightened.
Before, when the Li family admiral Li Huamei came, he had sunk and injured several ships from their Chamber of Commerce. But at that time, he didn't think that the Ming people were of any power, at most they were just a little cunning. However, when he dispatched the fleet back and searched all over Africa and waited for an opportunity to retaliate, the reality gave Espinosha a blow!
First, the defeat of the Battle of the Comoros, followed by the battle outside the port of Sofara. It was just two naval battles. The huge fleet of nearly seventy ships in the Espinosha Chamber of Commerce was beaten to only a dozen ships. The enemy was basically unscathed and captured several of them in vain. Looking at the whole world, it was simply unheard of and unseen!
Therefore, the unethical businessman, Gianlonime de Espinosha, ran away decisively, and with his last possessions and more than a dozen ships that were as frightened as him, he left behind his forces and ports that had been operating on the east coast of Africa for many years, and ran directly and gorgeously.
Anne did not choose to chase him because after the two battles, all kinds of supplies and gunpowder shells were consumed so much that she planned to replenish and repair the port of Sofara first, and wait for the fat man Nagopur in the Indian Ocean to send soldiers and merchants to take over the territory she captured in East Africa.
As early as Mogadishu, she had someone to send letters to Nanyang and Daming. Now Nanyang must have received the news, but she couldn't guarantee whether the Ming Dynasty received it and sent people to her, so she could only let a fat man take charge of it first.
But no matter what, she must not think about the facts of such messy things. She just wanted to wander around. Of course, she also wanted to open up commercial routes, routes, and find those idiots such as Li Huamei?
Well, now Annie can no longer tell which thing she is doing, but she also vaguely knows that in a short period of time, she may not be able to catch up with some idiots.
Because the captives of the Espirosha Chamber of Commerce have already honestly explained:
The Li family fleet had indeed been stranded in Africa before, and even fought several times with them. But as a result, after taking some small advantages, the Li family fleet had run away without a sign before the large fleet of the Espinosha Chamber of Commerce was mobilized, and it seemed that it had run to the Mediterranean to the north?
Then, there was a naval battle between the two sides in Mogadishu and Comoros, and the two sides would start a conflict and develop to this point now.
Therefore, Anne could only temporarily prepare to supply and repair the Sofara, and then she planned to wait until a fat man, Espinosha, sent someone to take over the various ports and trade stations in East Africa, and then wait for an opportunity to go north and go to the Mediterranean to find the useless bad guys Li Huamei who ran very fast.
Before that, she would have to stay in this port city called Sofara, which is actually just a small town with a pier.
This is Sofara. Although the Espinosha Chamber of Commerce has been entrenched here for a long time, the population and towns here are not very large. Anyway, after the ships of the Li family fleet docked and more than 2,000 fully armed sailors landed, this so-called city is actually just a place with a population of more than 10,000, and at most it is just a small town or a large commercial station, and it was directly declared to be occupied by the Li family chamber of Commerce.
So Anne began to stay in this cooler town located at 24o south latitude and 34o east longitude, and stayed for several days.
“…”
(? ̄?  ̄?)
Although it is also very hot here, compared to the equator and Mogadishu, it is really much better here.
“…”
?华?华?
Anyway, Annie saw it, that guy Song Yifeng no longer hid naked in the house to enjoy the cool air.
Although, Anne doesn't mind if she likes to dissipate heat in the house naked, she always has to listen to the research and muttering about food by the bad bear Tibers, which always makes her feel quite annoyed.
Moreover, the most important thing is: after listening to the muttering too much, she couldn't help but think about it several times. Occasionally, she would have the crazy idea of whether to try to cut the white and tender flesh on Song Yifeng's chest and arms, or chop it up from the egg on her butt and roast it and eat it?
“…”
(?~?)
Fortunately, Anne is different from her bad bear. She is still very bottom-line and will not eat people easily. Even if Song Yifeng looks very "delicious and delicate" in Tibers' eyes, it is the same.
“…”
(lll¬▽¬)
As she thought about it, Annie couldn't help but secretly glance at Song Yifeng, who was lying beside her playing game console while her feet were swaying in an North Korean specialty gauze dress, and her feet were swaying in the air intentionally or unintentionally.
The other party was not naked today, so Anne never heard the little bear's moans again, and she no longer had to worry about being eaten by the little bear one day. Then when she came back, she only found one or two broken palms or a large pool of blood.
If possible, Annie really wants to explain to the spicy Song Yifeng, for example, to make the other party aware of food, be sure to be vigilant and protect yourself at all times, and never be alone with Tibers and easily expose the meat on her body?
"Report!"
Suddenly, while Annie was thinking about something messy, the chief lieutenant Sword Fleet on her flagship "Xiang Feihu" suddenly shouted outside the door of the house, and then the other party walked straight in.
"Great Admiral!"
"The president of the Siruvera Chamber of Commerce just sent someone to send a handwritten letter. Please check it out?"
Then, after curiously looking at the second Admiral Song Yifeng, who was fiddling with something, the first lieutenant raised a waterproof parchment letter printed with mud in his hand and said.
"don't want!"
(??? 3?)
"I don't know anyone who is the president of La!"
??(?? ̄? ̄)?????
"You should just read it to others!"
∠(?”∠)_
Anne lazily lay on the big wooden chair she was sitting on, then used the reed tube to suck the coconut juice, and signaled the first mate to just recite it to her casually.
"yes!"
The first mate did not hesitate. He directly uncovered the seal mud covered with the seal, and then pulled open the handwritten letter from the president of the Siruvera Chamber of Commerce.
“…”
However, after pulling the letter down, his face changed dramatically.
Then, he turned the letter over again.
“…”
After a long time, except for the subconscious opening of his mouth, he just looked at the Grand Admiral who was lying on the chair, and then looked at the letters in his hand. His face was full of embarrassment, but he just kept chanting it without saying anything?
“??”
∑(′△)?!
"What's wrong? Did you say something bad about someone else?!"
.(,,???,,)?
Annie sat up straight slowly, and then she began to think in her heart:
If it was really like she thought, maybe she should let the fleet set off tomorrow, bypass Cape Cape Town, and then head north to the coastline of West Africa, clean up the chamber of commerce, and go to the Mediterranean in advance to find those idiots, Li Huamei and his sister?
"No, not..."
"this……"
"Great Admiral, you should read it yourself. Subordinates... It seems that they don't know their Portuguese writings?"
He smiled awkwardly, and then the first mate stopped pretending, but smiled embarrassedly and gently placed the roll of parchment letter on the wooden table in front of their Admiral Anne, where there were a lot of snacks, dried fruits and cut open coconuts.
He came here to report and did not bring a foreign translator who could speak the Ming language. So he didn't even know whether he was looking backwards or straightforwards just now. Anyway, he tried all of them, and he didn't know any of the tadpole-like words no matter how he looked at them!
“…”
(*ˉ?ˉ*;)
"It's really useless!"
(??ˇεˇ??)
Blinking, looking at the embarrassed first mate, and then looking at the roll of parchment, Anne scolded the other party with dissatisfaction, then stretched out and used her wet little hand that was sticky and covered with a lot of coconut juice to pick up the so-called handwritten letter, and opened it and browsed it quickly.
“…”
(??ˇ?ˇ?ˇ??)
“…”
(ˉ▽ ̄])Tsk~~
Soon, Annie finished reading it and threw it directly into the wooden box she used specifically to store garbage.
“??”
"What's wrong, Annie, what's written in it?"
At this time, Song Yifeng rarely stopped her entertainment, turned her face and said this to the first mate who wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.
"It's nothing!"
ε=(′ο`*))) Alas
"It's just a guy named Fenan Siruvera. He said he has nothing to do with Malay Governor Preyra in Nanyang. He is sure that he is not our enemy, he is not familiar with the Espinosa Chamber of Commerce, or even a competitive relationship?"
(;¬_¬)
"Anyway, the general meaning is that we hope we don't make things difficult for him."
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"Then he also said that the strongholds and commercial ports operated by his Chamber of Commerce, such as Sao Tome, Sao George, Sierra Leone and Green Corner, are willing to provide our Chamber of Commerce with supplies and docking services, and at the same time, they can also give us a certain market share?"
(′???`)
"It's probably that way anyway!"
(*^▽^*)
That was just a trivial matter, and Anne didn't care about it, nor did she take it to heart.
Besides, she had no intention of actively attacking the West or Wei Chamber of Commerce. As long as their ships could dock and trade normally, she would not be too busy to rush the ports and commercial stations that others had finally built!
To be continued...
