Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

When the Aragonese fleet crossed the Strait of Gibraltar and entered the Mediterranean Sea, Barbarossa Redding's fleet was cruising the sea not far from the North African coast.

Today Reding does not yet have a nickname of Red Beard. This nickname now belongs to his brother Schoen. Although the current Redding is also famous, it is not the head of the whole family.

His two elder brothers hold the main power of the entire family. Hayredin is the third son of the family, and his men are only part of this pirate family.

Hereding's ambition is stronger than that of his brothers, and he looks farther, so he hopes to get more.

The cooperation with the Mamluks has given their family a few good sites along the coast of Africa. With these ports they can quickly attack or hide, but Haiding is not satisfied with the current situation.

This is because he always feels that relying on others is not so reliable. Moreover, the Mamluks themselves are now overwhelming. The pressure of the Ottomans is increasing, especially in order to compete for the throne of Sudan. The expansion of the power is crazy, and now Mahmoud has regarded the conquest of Mamluk as an important bargaining chip for his throne, so Haileding feels that he should find a more reliable backing as soon as possible.

Today, he did not go to sea to rob because he was waiting for a very important guest who could provide him with more help than the Mamluks who just let out a few barren ports as their shelters. , Although I know that the other party must have his own purpose, but this does not prevent Hayredin from dealing with that person.

A large Clark sailing boat came from afar. The boat was cautiously anchored far away from the fleet of High Reading. The three main masts had fallen halfway, but a few spinnakers were only biased. In the direction of the wind, even if it is far away, Haiding can also see the other party's vigilant look.

But it ’s no wonder that they are notorious pirates. Promises and credits do n’t exist for them. If they do n’t talk properly, he will order heist, captive, or simply sink each other without hesitation. Ship, so seeing that ship looks like Redding does n’t mind.

A boat was slowly rowed over, although the sea was calm, but the boat was still bumpy, which made Hayreding wonder how the people on the other ship had the guts to meet with themselves alone until the ladder was lowered and followed a while. A woman boarded his boat with the help of sailors.

"Dear Haiding, I am very glad that you promised to meet me. I had hoped to meet with your brothers before, but they all refused me." Mrs. Connie bowed to the famous pirate leader, and was very He lowered his head cautiously and did not meet his gaze.

Many years of experience in the East let Connie know that even though he possesses the funds and weapons these people desire, the arrogant Orientals still treat her with a high attitude, not because of race or belief, but because of She is a woman.

"I know this. Rest assured. I'm not like my brothers. They are the best warriors. They have short-sightedness. I won't take you lightly because you are a woman. The information you disclosed to me helped me a lot. I ’m very busy, but I ’m grateful for that. ”

Connie smiled. She knew that Haileding was talking about the fact that he had successfully attacked the Sicilian tax fleet before.

After waiting for conclusive news, the Reading Pirates ’fleet unexpectedly attacked the Sicilian transport fleet in the waters close to the northern coast of the Mediterranean Sea. This move completely shocked the Europeans along the Mediterranean coast because they did not talk about those terrible ones. Pirates will be brave enough to launch attacks so close to the European continent.

Connie said nothing but waited for her to speak, but Heredin, who had a smile on her face, suddenly gloomed and stared at her and said, "But those are all past, if you cheat me next I will Kill you mercilessly. "

Haileiding stared at the woman in front of him. Of course, he did not treat all women equally as he said, but this one is obviously an exception. This woman is said to have a big backing. She can get a large number from Europe. Weapons and even artillery, and then transported these goods to the East through many obstacles, I heard that she even had dealings with the Safavid Church in Tabriz, and even Haireding himself had more than once Has taken care of her fleet passing her own site.

And it was a great Ottoman nobleman who was said to have been very influential in Constantinople, who passed the word and let them lift their noble hands to let the woman merchant ship off.

Such a woman who can eat everywhere is certainly not simple, so when she heard that she offered to contact her family, Haiding was very happy.

But his brothers refused this rare opportunity. After hearing this result, Haireding was very annoyed. He originally wanted to stop this stupid decision immediately, but in order to take into account the brothers ’ideas, he had to quietly send someone Contact this woman.

What made Reding a little surprised was that the woman named Connie immediately agreed to meet him privately and really went to the appointment soon.

"Your guts make me admire," Haileding said to Connie, not many people dared to deal with pirates, let alone a woman, which made him pay more attention to Connie and the people behind her. "I know you have a good relationship with Sicilian people. You should know someone named Grogning."

"Of course, he is my business partner, just like you and others." Connie Ottaran admitted that, as she said, the conflict with Grogening would not affect the cooperation between them, Although she knew that Grogening was rapidly developing his own strength through his relationship network in the Mediterranean, it had nothing to do with her. Her cooperation with Alexandria now seems to be going smoothly, and now she is not only Tabriz's Safa The VIPs in the Uighur Palace, but also took the opportunity to get in touch with the Mamluks.

"We also have some business dealings with that Grogning," Hayred nodded. He knew that the woman was not simple, but now it seems to be more powerful than he thought before. "Tell me what you can give me ? "

"The best muskets, the artillery that can be installed on your ship, and provide you with a reliable way to sell stolen goods. After all, you have to exchange the robbed things for what you need. I can assure you that all of this is safe, And ... "Connie stepped forward and whispered," I can provide you with all kinds of information about Sicily and Aragon. For example, as far as I know, Ferdinand of Aragon has ordered his fleet to enter the Mediterranean, Maybe you really angered him this time, I think the news is more important to you than weapons. "

Haileiding looked at the woman silently. The conditions given to him by the other party were too generous, which made him cautious.

What he needs to pay behind such rich conditions is still unknown, but it must not be easy to come.

"We can help you gain a foothold on the African coast," Connie continued. She knew that Redding must be hesitating, and that she did not have the luxury of having negotiated once this time, but they had cooperated before. It is indeed good. At least the success of the attack on the tax fleet on the route from Sicily to Aragon shows that this pirate has greater ambitions than his brothers. "I am not talking about helping you find a few like now. A place to hide, but to provide you with the help to truly build your own power. "

Hearing Connie ’s words, Hai Leiding still looks calm, but only he knows that the waves in his heart are about to catch up with the wild waves in the sea.

Establishing his own power, even a country, is Haileding's dream. He once talked to his brothers about his dream, but what he exchanged was their joke.

His brothers believe that the days are very good now, with a sea power that many people are eager to associate with them, from time to time robbing merchants, they can also attack a coastal port city if they want. After stealing a lot of wealth, he returned to free at sea. This kind of life has reached almost nothing for his brothers, so the unrealistic idea of ​​establishing a country is pure sea for them. Reading was thinking wildly.

And even Redding himself knows how far his dream is. It's one thing to bring a group of pirates to wreak havoc everywhere, but it's another thing to really build a country.

No one wants to see the birth of a new force, not to mention that they just contain the coastal route from the east coast of the Mediterranean to Africa ’s inland, but this is enough for many people to regard them as a nail, perhaps those countries can tolerate A group of pirates, but can never tolerate a country's navy for a long time occupying such a sea area that is very important for everyone.

Therefore, Redding knows how difficult he is to realize this dream, and he ca n’t guarantee who will be his strong enemy on this road, whether it is Mamluk who is working with him today or The Ottomans of the dark tunes will immediately be ruthlessly cut off once they realize his ambitions.

As for the woman in front of her, Haiding believed that she should have been ordered by some big European nobles to meet him. He thought about it and thought that the possibility of that trade union was very high.

He had worked with them before, and his pirates were responsible for combating merchant ships that did not belong to the trade union to ensure that the union had a monopolistic market in Europe, and they paid him considerable rewards.

Only now, that trade union seems to have a greater appetite. Have they reached the point where they want to support a country?

Hereding now wonders what the smart businessmen want him to do. He knows that they are willing to spend such a large cost, so their conditions should be equally harsh.

"What do you want?" Hereding asked, and he couldn't think of any conspiracy behind the big handwriting of these merchants.

"Help us to contain the Aragonese fleet," Connie drove her condition, and saw Hayred show a slightly unexpected look. She shook her head. "Don't think this is a simple thing, Ferdinand. Already crazy, you attacked his tax ship, not only caused him heavy losses but also lost his face. King Aragon has vowed to retaliate against you with severe attacks, so your situation is not very good. "

Hereding stared dullly at the woman in front of him. He knew that Connie was right. He did anger Ferdinand completely, which made him even doubt.

From the beginning, the woman disclosed to him the news of the Sicilian tax ship, but she was not so kind, but now it is too late to say that.

The Aragonese fleet has arrived in the Mediterranean Sea, and their days will definitely become very difficult. If they turn their face with this woman again at this time, then they may really be in a bad situation.

"Help us contain the Aragonese, and we provide you with sufficient assistance," Connie said to Hayredin. "This is a method that is beneficial to all of us. Believe me that your choice today will never make you regret . "

Hearing Connie ’s words, Haileding could n’t help but stretch out his right hand to caress the woman with the thick beard of her jaw.

He can be sure at this time that the people behind this woman are brewing a plan that is bigger and crazier than he suspected.

Just as the valuable prey can always be found keenly while hunting at sea, Haiding seems to smell the wealth and opportunity.

He felt that he should get involved, no matter what kind of ideas those people are playing, they can definitely get more benefits than he imagined, since this makes no sense for him to face the Aragonese alone, but put He threw it aside.

And he feels that he is qualified to cooperate with the people behind this woman. Not only does he have a strong pirate fleet, but their brothers also firmly control large areas of the North African coast, no matter what their future plans are. As long as they still want to do business in the Mediterranean, they must deal with their family.

Connie also looked at the pirate leader in front of him.

According to Alexander's arrangement, after getting in touch with Safavid, Connie provided the young Safavid dean with a large number of firearms, and the little fart boy who she didn't really like was shown immediately. The extraordinary ability that surprised her.

Just at the beginning of the year, the young Ismaili ’s army had swept away the Kuinu tribe, a long-time enemy of Azerbaijan, and after taking revenge on his dead brother, the young priest had set his sights on his west. The Ottomans on the border are a huge threat.

But what really inspired Mrs. Connie was the arrival of Pedro Cardron.

When he saw the Cardron who was brought to the front like a cargo, Connie was so excited that he could not hold the beautiful young man and kissed him constantly because of the accident and joy.

But when Cardron thought he might have good luck again, and intended to approach Mrs. Connie by virtue of his beautiful appearance, he was ruthlessly rejected.

Connie is very clear about the usefulness of this illegitimate son of Jim and knows who can really bring her enough benefits.

So instead of being seduced by Cardron at all, she told him clearly that his task was to play as a prince of distress.

But because the long-awaited plan has already begun, the dependence on traffic in the Mediterranean Sea has become stronger, which is the main reason why Mrs. Connie decided to take the risk to negotiate with the infamous pirate in person.

She needs to ensure contact and transportation with the European continent, and also ensure that the pirate can hold the Aragonese fleet firmly in the Mediterranean as they hope.

This was not how faithful she was to Alexander's promise, but only that she could get more support from Sicily.

And as a wise man, Connie can clearly feel that Alexander ’s ambitions are much larger than she imagined, even if Haileding was only keenly aware of the possible benefits, he immediately figured out how to learn from them. As for the last one, Connie will of course not let go of what might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

A negotiation took a long time, until the person in the far ship was worried because he began to worry about sending another boat close to Redding to inquire about the news. Connie was happy with the result that satisfied both parties. Boarded the boat to pick her up.

Looking at the Clark sailboat that was going away, Haiding rethought the agreement he had just reached with the woman.

This woman will provide him with a large number of the most advanced firearms in Europe, and all he has to do is to do his old business, continue to attack and harass the maritime traffic between Aragon and Sicily, which is really for him A good thing that benefits others.

Haileiding firmly believes that he is not wrong, he anticipates what may happen in Sicily, and he can take advantage of the opportunity to fish in the water.

Connie also laughed. She not only fulfilled the agreement that Alexander had ordered with Hailedin about Sicily, but also received a promise from the pirate to support her actions on the east coast of the Mediterranean.

This made Connie overjoyed, and at the same time had greater confidence in using Cardron's development in the East.

In mid-October, a large-scale maritime conflict broke out near the Azores in the Atlantic Ocean away from continental Europe.

With 16 armed merchant ships, the Portuguese launched an attack on the Castilian merchant fleet also in this area.

In this maritime battle, which has long been fought for both sides, the Portuguese destroyed and captured 11 ships loaded with a large number of looted from the new colony at the expense of three cruavers Merchant ships with pepper, ivory and gold.

This huge loss made Queen Istia, who was ill in bed, furious. She dragged her tired body and insisted on holding a small imperial meeting in her living room.

At the meeting, Isabella ordered Gonzalo, who is facing the French against the border, to give him the power to gather the Portuguese army on the border between the two countries.

At the same time, Isabella wrote a letter to King Egmond III of Navarre, demanding that he must let the French army leave the border between the two countries within a week, and retreat so that it will not let Cass. The Tillians felt threatened, or she would view the French and Navarre forces as an intervention in Castilian affairs.

The Queen's tough attitude made the Castilians cheer for it, and at the same time another news made the people feel overjoyed. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

After more than half a year of turmoil, the Andalusian noble coalition forces in the south finally sent their official negotiators.

At about the same time, a large number of pirates suddenly became rampant in the Mediterranean.

Their crazy attacks on merchant ships traveling to and from the sea, especially those related to Sicily, were the main targets of their looting and destruction. In just ten days, several merchant ships were attacked, and two more The ship was directly sunk by the pirates.

For a while, the businessmen in Sicily suffered heavy losses, and the governor, Flamenca, had to once again request the Aragonese fleet that had just arrived in Sicily to attack the pirates as soon as possible.

On October 17, the rested Aragonese fleet finally sailed out of the port of Pakino in southern Sicily. Their target was the vast waters off the Mediterranean coast of North Africa, where pirates were most rampant.

Two days later, Queen of Naples, Rosa, received a secret message from Sicily, and looking at the content of the secret message, a sweet smile appeared on her face.
