Chapter 140 The Super Consortium Asks for a Monthly Ticket
After Yang thanked everyone, he boarded the Arab warship and sailed towards the east, not wasting half a day.{}中文网 At this time, the British naval fleet carrying Richard and Charles Gilbon had just finished sailing
Halfway to Africa.
The next day, Richard left alone. The result of James' tracking was that Richard boarded a British Navy warship. The other party finally started to take action.
Clifford took out a red wooden box from the bookshelf, which was covered with white satin. He put the six Certificates of Overlord into the box, and then rang the bell to call the orderly Miller. Miller asked "Go and get it"
"Invite the guests on the third floor", he left and came back soon. Behind him was Camille.
But these problems are not a problem for Bergström. He has a close relationship with the pirate king Barbarossa, and he travels the southern Mediterranean just like other coasts of Africa, and it is very safe. As for the Islamic people, as long as Bergström
If they make a request to their king, not to mention it will be approved, maybe they will prepare fast ships and sailors to escort them all the way out of the Red Sea.
"You rushed in so boldly, and he just happened to catch you. By then, the Overlord's Certificate will not be guaranteed, and Camille will not be able to save you!"
Without saying another word, Serra could clearly see Bergstrom's heart. He was not a person who would talk sweet words to begin with, not before, and never again.
Things went as smoothly as President Bergs said. When Li Huamei and Lilu's ship arrived in London, England, Yang Xien also set foot on the land of Egypt. Gerhart had already prepared fast horses and dry food, and Yang followed him and
Under the escort of Bergström, he headed to the Red Sea. The hardship of traveling all the way was not to mention, but Gerhardt had made sufficient preparations and calculations in advance, and he was no match for Bergström when he occasionally encountered a few groups of thieves.
For the time being, there was nothing else that bothered him except being on his way.
Her words didn't get an answer, but they got a response a hundred times better than words.
Camille looks the same as she did three months ago. She is not shackled or tied with ropes, nor does she appear to be injured. She is not emaciated and depressed due to hunger, nor is her face pale due to malnutrition.
The head is slightly longer.
Before the footsteps of Lilu left had gone far, the news that Li Huamei was favored in the palace had broken into Clifford's mansion like a cold wind. This news came a day late. Of course Clifford knew that Lilu and
Li Huamei came to London together, and of course he knew what they were for. But he had to solve Lilu's matter first. When he was concentrating on Li Huamei, he didn't expect that the other party would seize the opportunity in such a short period of time. This
It can only be considered that he asked for it. Everyone knows that it is very dangerous to make two enemies at the same time. You must always divide your spirit into two and fight against an enemy with 100 energy. In this case
, it is perfectly normal to be careless.
This was the most heartwarming thing Sierra had ever heard.
"Sierra..." Bergstrom hadn't called this name for a year, but now he didn't feel unfamiliar at all when he spoke it. Perhaps that was because he had called the name tens of millions of times in his heart. He held the owner of the name tightly.
He held her in his arms, almost crushing her.
There was only one bed and one window in the room, and the thin sunlight shone through the window on the person next to the bed. The person sitting next to the bed was wearing a snow-like robe, with a long black shawl on his shoulders, and dark purple eyes.
With a warm smile, the face in Bergstrom's mind suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, making him wonder if he was dazzled. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to touch the image in front of him to see if it was
It will be broken. This scene is just like when the two met for the first time. The difference is that they have already had memories between them for half a year.
At about the same time, another reunion scene took place in London. The protagonists were naturally Lilu and Camille.
The others waited until Lilu had hugged her enough before gathering around to greet Camille. Fernand did not join them. There must always be someone who remains calm, and usually this kind of role is played by him. In other words, it is not.
Fernand could keep calm all the time, but after the first and second times, others developed a habit, which made Fernand, who did not have this habit, have to follow suit.
Do what others want. Of course, this also requires your own willingness.
While Fernand went to the tavern to collect intelligence, Li Huamei also took action. James was very familiar with London and had made many friends with similar interests. It didn't take much effort to find out Clifford's identity.
Things. Clifford is a well-known figure in the UK, and his popularity is no less than that of Her Royal Highness the Queen. Whether it is his legendary story when he was a pirate, his rise to prominence overnight, or his great achievements after joining the navy,
They are all topics that people talk about. However, no one dares to say these words openly in the pub. Only very familiar friends will chat in a low voice after buying a few drinks. So people will always end up talking about it in the end.
Add a sentence: Don't provoke him if you have nothing to do! After hearing this, James muttered in his heart: It's not us who provoke him now, but he provokes us!
Clifford interrupted the reunion of old friends and reminded Lilu to hand over the last certificate of dominance. A smarter person might have tried to refuse the debt, but unfortunately Lilu did not have this advantage. She still
He honestly handed over the Certificate of Overlord. Clifford was really surprised when he saw Camille take out five gold coins and hand them to Lilu, and then Lilu put the gold coins in front of him.
.Although the muscles on Knowledge’s face twitched slightly, they could not escape Fernand’s eyes. In the end, the result was just a slight sway by the other party. It was innocuous. Clifford had achieved his goal anyway, so there was no need for it.
I'll pursue it again. But if it were that "Devil Pirate" Clifford, he would definitely not let these people out of the gate alive. When did he become soft-hearted? Maybe even he himself
have no idea.
Three days later, they arrived at the port of Suez on the edge of the Red Sea. As they approached the pier, they could see the Arab-style sails erected high up there. The masts were connected one after another, and there was almost no place for seabirds to play.
.Dozens of Arab warships surrounded the dock, frightening the people in the city and thinking that it was a massive Islamic attack.
The gift has already won the favor, and it will be easier to win the favor of Her Majesty the Queen. Li Huamei used a little trick to please, flatter, and add a bit of envy, and he immediately coaxed the Queen into being like her own grandmother. This move is like Go.
The hand tendon that was struck hit Clifford's head.
Lilu placed her own and the borrowed Overlord Certificates on the table, except for one from Southeast Asia.
Al and Shaoud had already seen the three people and walked towards them. After a brief greeting, Shaoud pointed to an Arab warship on the pier and said that it was the ship prepared for them, with soldiers, sailors, food and other supplies.
It is fully equipped and ready to set sail at any time. There is also a special translator on the ship. His name is Akob※#8226; Damai. He is a businessman who travels around the Eastern Continent. He also traveled between the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty along the Silk Road.
In India, he knew a little about the languages of various places. Some people called him a "know-it-all", which was very different from the self-proclaimed "Doctor of Natural History". Such careful arrangements were all given by the king himself, which shows the king's kindness.
Yi An presented greetings and gifts to Her Majesty the Queen of England, hoping to be granted an audience. Such an interview usually has to wait for ten days and a half, but unexpectedly Her Majesty the Queen sent an envoy to invite her the next day.
Although the Queen herself has a strong curiosity about the Orientals, and many ministers around her often talk about that mysterious country, the biggest reason is the gift presented by Li Huamei. The finest silks and satins of various colors...
Hundreds of horses, the soft and smooth feel immediately captured the heart of the noble lady; the luminous pearls that emerged from the depths of the East China Sea eclipsed the gold and silver in the hall; the dragon and phoenix jade pendants carved from a single piece of jade,
The knife work is exquisite, a pair of dragons and phoenixes seem to fly out of the stone, and the color of the jadeite is also emerald green. What is rare is that there are exactly two dots of vermilion on the eyes of the dragon and phoenix, which complement the green and red ones.
The combination of bright red and green is a unique custom in China, which has always been frowned upon by Westerners, but now they all fall under the feet of ancient Chinese culture.
"Sela, I may not be able to make it this year, but I will definitely go to your celebration next year!"
Shortly after Richard left, President Bergstrom came up with a brilliant strategy to return to the Ming Dynasty before the British navy: using the Red Sea between Africa and Asia. Directly from the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea,
By crossing the Red Sea and passing through India and Malacca to the Ming Dynasty, we can avoid having to go around the continent of Africa, shortening the journey by at least half!
According to the results of Fernand's inquiry, I only heard that Clifford defeated the Spanish, expanded British power to the American continent, earned enough face for the navy, and was rewarded for his meritorious service. As for now, he is on vacation. As for
No one mentioned the Evidence of Overlord and Camille, and no words related to it were heard. It seems that this matter has nothing to do with the British Navy and is entirely Clifford's selfishness. Since there is only one opponent, then
It's easy to handle. He definitely doesn't want his boss to know about the Overlord's Certificate, which will be his Achilles' heel.
Bergström also summoned his men and issued instructions one by one. He asked Al to take the message to Basra and ask the king for a way to borrow a boat; he also asked Gerhardt to go ahead and go to Alexander to inform the sea.
Reading, and prepared travel equipment to the Red Sea; Manuel was ordered to stay in Lisbon; he himself and Charles commanded the flagship Vestalos to send Yang to Alexandria.
As soon as the Alenheim entered the dock in London, Lilu hurriedly jumped off the ship to find Clifford, but Fernand persuaded her.
Bergström explained the key to Li Huamei, but when he mentioned the Islamic King, he simply said that he had helped him a little, and that the other party would never embarrass Bergström's friends.
He didn't even mention Wang's name, and Li Huamei didn't ask any questions. Since Bergstrom just said, "Leave it to me," that was the best guarantee.
Li Huamei immediately summoned Yang Xien, Xingjiu, Yi An and James. After discussion, it was decided that Yang would rush back to the Ming Dynasty, notify the navy commander, and lead Li's fleet to closely monitor the southern ports to prevent the British navy from entering.
Not long after, a familiar figure appeared among a group of Islamic people. Standing with his arms crossed was Al, and standing next to him was Sheoud. Sheoud was no longer dressed in black. He was wearing white.
robe, the piping of the robe is embroidered with exquisite patterns.
Although Lilu was uneasy, she pestered Camille and asked him questions from head to toe. But before that, she looked like she was about to cry and threw herself into Camille's arms. She felt the other person's body temperature and warmth.
The sound of a strong heartbeat made her really feel at ease.
Not to mention Li Huamei, no one with a bit of common sense would have thought of this method. The first level is in the Southern Mediterranean, which is the domain of the Pirate King. Intruders will die; followed by 6 bridges connecting the Mediterranean and the Red Sea.
The roads are all in Egypt, a place where thieves are rampant. The most important Red Sea is under the surveillance of the Islamic people. Not to mention ships, not even a fly can fly at the outlet of the Red Sea. You know how powerful the pirate king and the Islamic fleet are.
No one dares to get close.
After seeing Yang off, Scheud invited Bergstem to board the boat for a drink. Bergstem did not refuse. He was just thinking about his own thoughts, and the same face kept turning around in his mind.
I also want to ask Scheud how his master is doing now.
Being able to see his old friend, Bergstem was in a particularly good mood and said jokingly: "It's true that people really care about clothes! Sheewud's clothes are quite decent too!"
The affairs of the palace have always attracted accomplices all over the city, and the news that the Japanese became the guests of Her Majesty the Queen spread to every tavern. However, because Clifford's mansion is located on the outskirts of the city, it has not yet received the invitation.
The news. Besides, he is busy dealing with Lilu now and has no time to pay attention to Li Huamei.
Lilu suggested that for the sake of fairness, she should first hand over the six Certificates of Overlord to Clifford, and then give him the last one after he releases Kami.
"If Clifford doesn't agree, threaten him that he will report the matter to the Navy. Then the Navy will order him to hand over the Overlord's Certificate, and he will get nothing in the end!" This is Fei
Nan De's strategy, he believed that Clifford had to accept this condition. However, it did not work because Clifford only thought about it for a second and agreed to Lilu's condition.
Gerhardt didn't have so many worries. On the one hand, he saw that Bergström was uneasy. On the other hand, he also noticed that the arrangement of the ship was particularly gorgeous. There was no tool that was not carefully carved.
The corridor is also covered with carpets, and there is no sound at all when walking on it. On the contrary, except for the necessary sailors, there are almost no traces of soldiers on the ship. Walking in the narrow corridor, no one feels that it is very spacious, but Alcho
He also deliberately squeezed him. When he was squeezed for the second time, Gerhardt understood and slowed down.
Lilu and her group came to Clifford's mansion with the Certificate of Overlord and asked for exchange for Camille. Compared to their anger, Clifford received the guests with a smile.
That was almost a year ago. Bergstrom did not go to see the celebration that day, and left Basra without even saying goodbye to the most important people. He traveled at sea for three months before returning again.
He set foot on land, but three months of sea water and sea breeze still couldn't fill his empty heart. One year was not enough to heal his trauma. Gerhardt's casual words reminded him of that time again.
The scene at that time immediately made my heart extremely depressed. I don’t know how many days and nights it would take to recall it before the heartache would stop. It might be ten years, or it might be the day when his heart stops beating.
Gerhardt said seriously: "He is now the king's guard captain. This is just the uniform of the palace guard. I hope he will wear this on the day of the enthronement celebration!"
The person beside the bed stood up, took hold of Bergström's outstretched hand, and said, "I didn't know if you wanted to see me, so..."
Scheud took Commander Bergström to the innermost room, saying that he was going to get some wine and asked him to go in and sit down first. Commander Bergström didn't realize that his always loyal adjutant was no longer behind him, so he opened the door and left.
Go in.
When Camille was mentioned, Lilu immediately calmed down. She could not let Camille have another accident because of her, so she obediently listened to Fernand and stayed on the ship, leaving the matter of finding out the information to professionals.
