324. The crown of the gods

As the fleet headed east first and then headed south, I kept thinking - I wonder if the Spanish liked the gifts I left to them? Did they have fun?

In this era when information was not developed, advance measurement is the most important parameter of any strategy and tactics.

According to my expectations, the Spaniards made a round trip between New Mainland and Europe, and they would not give up the entire plan because of a little change.

What's more, the Spanish are proud, old-fashioned and conceited. If they were as Reykjavik said, they mobilized three squadrons and formed a crushing force in their strength, they would never let us "disobedient small forces" go!

For them, defeating us and taking Virginia is just a natural thing, so they will never leave any backup plan!

So their attack will definitely come soon, and once it is launched, it will be a storm-like attack! With such an attack intensity, with my current strength, I will definitely be dead and unborn, so leaving is the best and wisest choice.

As for whether the left-behind personnel led by Raleigh will be attacked after we leave, the answer is yes, they will definitely be attacked! So what is the result?

This is not within my consideration. At least I left them a solution, giving them amulets, and self-protection methods. As for the outcome, I have to ask their God, not me.

As for the fleet I led, many people were wondering, where are we going? The answer is very simple - since he is going to attack me and I can't resist it, then the best way for me is to exchange it with him!

The one I was attacked on was the Virginia wasteland, and it was not fearful even if it was lost. But what I was about to attack was the Spanish's core position in the Americas!

There are four targets in total - Viagra, a port city in modern Mexico, Havana, Cuba’s important town, Belize Port in Guatemala, and Haiti port city. Currently, the trading distribution centers of various countries in Central America - Port-au-Prince!

Our fleet took advantage of the convenience provided by the low-latitude trade wind belt in the northern hemisphere and headed south all the way south! When we arrived near the port of Nassau in the Bahamas, we took a little supply and turned west!

At this time, we were already in the central America and completely entered the sphere of influence controlled by the Spanish. Therefore, our actions cannot tolerate any carelessness. We can only act quickly and leave no traces to win more time and space!

We must complete the robbery of the three target ports before the Spaniards return to the rescue, and then find a way to escape the other party's roundup and return to Europe!

The first goal is Port-au-Prince, not far southeast of our current location!

Port-au-Prince was the first port to be discovered and built in Central America. In 1492, after Columbus discovered Haiti, the Spaniards flocked to them and transported black people from Africa to serve as slaves. This small island on the Central American island chain began its own turbulent life.

Its name is said to be a huge storm blew on the sea. After a French ship named "Prince" sailed into the port in the wind and rain, he found that it was safe! Later, in order to get a lottery, people named Port-au-Prince after this lucky ship.

This was originally the Indian world, but now these indigenous people have been driven away by the Spanish and have lost their rule over their homeland.

When we arrived in Port-au-Prince, it happened to be the local rainy season. The heavy rain in the sky provided extremely convenient conditions for our smooth infiltration!

We landed from the modern * near *, and went deeper and shallower towards the hinterland of Port-au-Prince. I led a small number of people, and this trip was not for destruction, but for investigation.

After wandering around the small Port-au-Prince, I only have one experience - desolation, silence, full of killing and hatred! Fighting, robbery, and various vocabulary that are not in line with civilization are being staged here at all times!

But I also found that there is an area in the harbor that is particularly gorgeous and rich, as if it was a place of blessing, surrounded by laughter and joy, and surrounded by guards patrolling back and forth, which seemed to be the safest place in the world!

Judging from my unsimple understanding, this place may only be a kind of place - the Governor's Office and a gathering place for local dignitaries.

So if you commit robbery, this place seems to be the best place to start!

I asked Jiugui Zhengxiao to arrange for people to observe inside and out, and even found the secret hiding place of the Indians! This is simply a blessing given to me by God!

Seeing that the situation had been roughly understood, I decided to do it tonight! So I immediately sent someone back to the fleet and mobilized a backbone force with a total scale of about 200 people, including the Ninja team, the Special Forces and the elite sailors. After an hour, I completed the assembly next to me!

I summoned several persons in charge and quickly arranged my plan. The guys' eyes lit up when they heard this, and then they took action and started!

Jiugui Masato led the ninja team and the members of the special forces rushed into the Governor's Mansion with lightning speed. While these big-bellied officials were still sleeping soundly, they lifted them out of the bed and threw them into the rain!

Of course, it took no effort to do this. They focused more on finding valuable things, and this search turned out to be quite fruitful!

I don't care who the local governor's name is, what I care about is the property he robbed from the Indians and from the past trading caravans!

So, the Nine Ghosts Masayoshi and the others found a huge wealth that was almost the same as our fleet's gross income in two years! Several older Spanish nobles screamed and rushed towards the special forces that had revealed their wealth accumulated over the years, completely forgot the threat of death!

In their worldview, you can take my life, but you can't take my money - just like the goblins in Western mythology! So I took their life as they wished!

During this period, Nine Ghosts Masayoshi brought me something very magical - a crown!

This crown is made of gold, inlaid with many precious gems of various colors, and a small cobra on the top that looks like a dancing one! Especially the eyes that shoot, they are inlaid with two hexagonal and crystal-sparkled emeralds, which is obviously not an ordinary product!

The inside of the crown was also engraved with a strange hieroglyph. It seems that its original owner should have come from a relatively backward civilization - such as the local Indians!

Seeing that I was thinking about holding this crown tube, Jiugui Zhengxiao keenly realized my intention-the fundamental purpose of this trip was not to rob, but to cause the Spaniards' backyard to catch fire!

So he quickly contacted Mavi and Old Tucker who were going to mobilize the Indians and asked them to invite Grihagus, the leader of the Indians, to the location of the Governor's Mansion.

In fact, Grihagus was really wary of the black eyes, black hair, yellow skin, and the old Tucker, who was obviously European, although they repeatedly claimed that they were here to help the Indians - after all, when the Spanish first arrived, they also used the slogan of "liberation".

But in the end, Grihagus came to me with the mentality of "what else can we lose" and followed the two of them to find me.

As soon as we met, we saw the crown in my hand. Grihagus and the two Indians who came together immediately knelt on the ground with their bodies, shouting prophecies that I couldn't understand, and worshiping the crown in my hand!

I have seen this kind of worship - many people who appeared on the Sichuan-Tibet Line to make pilgrimage. When I saw it again today, I was not only shocked, but also a little more joy in my heart!

This is very important to them! I had such a hint of enlightenment in my heart, and Old Tucker translated his language to me. This quaint crown is called "the crown of God"!

I fell into deep thought. I had no intention of understanding the profoundness of God or not, but it did not affect my enthusiasm for further understanding of this crown.

"Ask him, what is this for?" I pointed to the old Indian man. Of course, I asked them to sit down politely and gave them food and water - I would never be stingy with these cheap kindness.

My kindness was immediately rewarded. This crown is the relic of the Aztecs, the homeland of these Indians!

I was shocked. In history, there were countless legends about the mysterious Aztecs, and they were also one of the most fascinating ancient civilizations.

Grihagus murmured about everything he knew. It is said that in his grandfather's still young, their hometown, kingdom, Aztec, was ruthlessly destroyed by the Spanish!

That night was called the "Miserful Night", and the Spaniards destroyed their capital, Tenochtitlan. In the fight between the two sides, countless Indians and Spanish died in the sea water around the city.

After the Spanish left, Aztec was attacked by smallpox again and its strength continued to decline. Finally, it was completely destroyed by the hands of the Spanish more than 60 years ago.

However, although the kingdom was destroyed, several princes of the kingdom escaped! They carried four treasures from the Aztec kingdom and escaped at the last moment.

These four treasures are the shield of the war god Vizilo Pochitli, the dagger of the sun god Tonatiu, the tear crystal stone of the rain god Tralok, and the crown of the feathered snake god Quizalkoyatel!

Over the years, most of the escaped princes have passed away, and later people have survived under the conquest of the Spanish-led colonists, and the four treasures have gradually faded away.

But there has always been a legend among the descendants of the Aztecs, that is, when four treasures reappear on earth and gather together, the Aztec kingdom can be revived! The royal power will be restored! Glory will be added again!

So over the past few decades, the descendants of Aztec have been trying to find four treasures. Currently, according to Grihagus's understanding, there are two treasures in their mastery, and two are still missing!

One is the dagger of the sun god Tonatiu, and the other is the crown of the feathered snake god Quizarkoyater held in my hand!

So that's it... I looked around and looked at the crown in my hand, and couldn't help but think of it - it seemed that I had found a good reason! Do I really have the protagonist's halo?

After a long time, I withdrew my gaze and thought from the crown and stared at Grihagus and said, "I am honored that I can find the treasure belonging to the wise nation! I am willing to hand it back to you! But..."

Grihagus and the follower immediately fell to the ground and kowtowed to the blood: "For this crown, we are willing to pay for all the price you have requested!"

I shook my head and said seriously: "No, no, no! You misunderstood!"

As I said that, I raised the crown slightly and said in a serious and almost sacred voice: "I have been committed to finding fairness, justice and truth for the past half of my life! I only have one requirement, that is, those who welcome the crown back, don't give up fighting! For the sake of the kingdom and glory, I want you to fight forever!"

Grihaguslen was on the spot, and he almost didn't believe in his ears! Even if this crown was aside its sacred meaning to the Aztec remnants, its own value alone was definitely worth ten thousand yuan!

The young man in front of him was really just giving it back to us like this? As he thought about it, he almost burst into tears - was there the legendary envoy who found the treasure for the kingdom?

Next, I was naturally bound to bow and praise, and I respectfully returned the crown with both hands, but opposite to it, I got a string of pendants that seemed to be made of bronze and tortoiseshell.

Grihagus said this was a token, and as for what it was useful, I don't know.

Looking at Grihagus and his party leaving in fear and fear, I smiled. Huamei asked me: "Qi Lan, are the things you just said true?"

I asked without looking back, "What?"

Hua Mei also smiled and said, "It's just fairness and justice, insist on fighting those nonsense!"

I smiled faintly and said, "Of course it's true. I need them to continue fighting with the Spaniards!"

Huamei finally asked, "Will they not sacrifice more for this?"

I raised my head, looked at the bright moon, and replied faintly: "They will sacrifice better than us. Is it right?"

Huamei was speechless and stood side by side with me.
