  Chapter 1772 Victory

  In this expedition, the biggest variable is breaking through the Strait of Gibraltar.

  Although there is roughly information on this sea area, it is still unknown whether the hydrological data is accurate. Once it hits a rock, it will be bad.

   What's more, in order to ensure that they will not be noticed, they must pass at night. The vision at night is even less clear, and the danger is even greater.

   Zhu Houzhao was very interested in this.

   Sometimes Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao and didn't know what was going on in this guy's mind.

  The Creator is really great, to be able to design such a bastard.

  …

  Cyprus waters.

  When a fast ship of the Armada spotted the Ottoman navy advancing in the sea, it set up its sails and quickly retreated.

  On the flagship of the Ottoman Navy, the general squinted his eyes, took out a telescope, and kept looking in the direction of the Spanish fast ship.

  He took a deep breath and immediately issued an order: "Get ready to fight. This fast ship is owned by the Royal Spanish Navy. Their main fleet must be near here, and they are coming soon."

"Ready to fight…"

  Hundreds of ships suddenly began to swell up.

  The original Ottoman navy was once extremely powerful.

   It was only later surpassed by the Spaniards. More than a decade ago, even the Portuguese navy defeated the Ottoman navy in the Mediterranean.

  Since then, Ottoman learned from the pain and created a stronger fleet.

   And now... it's finally time for a new round of confrontation.

To the south of here is Alexandria, Sinai, and the Matruh area. These areas are important nodes for Ottomans to control North Africa. What's more, the Ottoman Guards have begun to enter Hungary. The countries of Lachia and Moldavia also sent a large number of knights, and even the Tatars from Crimea also sent cavalry.

  In Zatar and other places, that is, in West Africa, the mighty Spanish army crossed the strait and attacked the city. Wherever it passed, there was no grass.

  Emperor Suleiman, who personally supervised the battle in Alexandria, boosted morale.

As for this Ottoman navy general with rich experience, his goal is to lead the Ottoman fleet to meet the Spanish Armada here. He will never allow Ottoman to lose his command of the sea. Otherwise, the entire Mediterranean Sea will become Spain's interior. lake.

  The soldiers on the side stepped forward cautiously, and said in a low voice: "General, before fighting, do you want to discuss the battle with Liu Yushi..."

  The general held his head up, with a look of disdain on his face: "A group of scribes from the east don't know much about naval warfare. He has been seasick for half a month, and he vomits and diarrhea all day long..."

   But the soldiers seemed worried. The imperial imperial envoy who came with the ship was appointed by the emperor to supervise the fleet. Although he was seasick, this imperial envoy was prone to rage at any behavior that disrespected him.

  But the general had already drawn out the scimitar from his waist, and made a gesture of a decisive battle. The soldier still retreated obediently, not daring to continue talking.

  At this time... Countless ships raised their sails.

   Countless sailors and sailors chanted, and a small number of artillery and ballistas on the ship were placed on the deck at this moment.

  Two hours later, on the sea level, the shadow of the ship really began to appear.

   Still still the Clippers, they came across the waves presumptuously, seeming to be observing every move of the Ottoman fleet.

   Immediately afterwards... warships one after another slowly emerged from the sea level with their majestic figures.

   "King Carlos, it's King Carlos..."

   Someone shouted.

   The Ottoman Navy is no stranger to this ship.

   This was once the most powerful fleet of the Armada and the main force of the Armada.

  It is like a beast in the sea, and it is said that it has never suffered a defeat.

  Once the King Carlos appears, it means that the main force of the Armada has appeared.

  The watchman holding the binoculars then shouted again: "Portuguese, it's Portuguese..."

  The Portuguese are coming too...

  The general’s hands trembled a little, he closed his eyes, his brows squeezed into Sichuan characters, but then he opened his eyes and gritted his teeth: “Form up!”

   Ottoman navy, did not retreat.

  In fact, even if you evade now, it's too late.

  Because Ottoman's ships have never been as fast as the ships of the Armada. Once they retreat, they will be chased by the opponent sooner or later, and eventually hit the bottom of the sea one by one.

  On the sea, more than 300 huge warships lined up, covering the sky and the sun.

  At this moment, the vast sea is at the bottom of its boat, and it seems that it has also become awed.

  This is almost the entire Mediterranean coast, the largest navy, the Armada mixed with Portugal, with as many as 3,000 artillery pieces and tens of thousands of soldiers.

  In addition to nearly two hundred warships, there are hundreds of other fast ships, auxiliary ships, and light small ships.

  The huge battleship was in the lead, like mountains, rolling towards the Ottoman navy.

  The Ottoman Navy followed suit.

  The two sides approached, and then all guns were fired.

  The Ottomans only hoped to get close to the opponent's warship quickly, because they knew very well that the Spanish ships had extremely strong combat capabilities, and their artillery was sharper than the Ottomans. If they wanted to win, they had to try their best to get close to the enemy ship and rely on close combat.

  Countless people wailed, and immediately, the sails began to roll and burst into flames.

  Those naked soldiers with knives, once the two ships collided, immediately leaned on the hook locks, fixed them, and then climbed overwhelmingly to the enemy ships like ants, fighting each other and fighting each other.

  The sound of guns, gunshots, and countless arrows, in this small sea area, is like rain.

  The Armada easily broke through the left flank of the Ottoman Navy, and then launched rounds of artillery fire from its back.

  Countless people fell into the water, and no one can tell where they came from, and what traces they have had in this world.

   "Liu Yushi fell into the sea, Liu Yushi fell into the sea. No, Liu Yushi escaped in a boat, escaped..."

   Ottoman's general, at this moment... has no time to take care of.

  His flagship has been targeted by the Spaniards.

At this time...he discovered that the latest warships of the Spanish and Portuguese are more powerful than before. He raised his head and saw the overturned Ottoman ships all around him. And imperial envoy, his heart...bleeding, this is Osman, the last bit of property, and now...

  The fierce battle lasted for four hours, from noon to evening.

  Under the sun, there were floating corpses everywhere on the sea, as well as broken ship boards and half-burned sails.

   The sound of shouting and killing is getting weaker and weaker.

   More... just moans that hurt.

   And at this time, the King Carlos was on board.

  Duke Derek, who was born in the oldest and most prominent Alba family in Spain, slowly put down his binoculars.

  He greeted the evening wind, showing a relaxed and happy expression, and muttered in his mouth: "The Ottoman navy...is really vulnerable. From now on, the sea will belong to Spain, from today to forever."

  The corners of his mouth raised slightly, expressing his satisfaction with this unsurprising naval battle.

   "From now on, the Ottoman who controlled North Africa will cease to exist!"

   "Now, send a fast boat and return to Spain immediately to inform His Royal Highness the news."

  The Duke paused, put down the binoculars, and gracefully put one hand on his waist: "Tell Your Highness, the war is over!"
