Vol 3 Chapter 1142: From the Bahamas, India, to Japan, Cuba...

Latest website address: "Aww! Ah! Aww!..."

The night is vast, and there are cries and sobs. Darkness is the beast in people's hearts, hiding terrifying and cruel power. On the flagship, the navigator Pedro lowered his head and hurried away in the dark night. In the dim captain's room, only an angry Columbus stood with gritted teeth.

"Merda! How dare these idiots commit such a taboo! Do you really think I can't kill someone?!..."

In medieval sailing, there were many strange, superstitious and deep-rooted sailing traditions. One of them is that women are not allowed on ocean-going ships! In the nautical culture of Western Europe, women on ships will bring bad luck, storms and ominousness. Especially on ocean-going fleets, they will attract terrifying beings in the deep sea. Similarly, women can seriously undermine the discipline on board the ship and cause conflicts among the crew...

In fact, Spanish and Portuguese captains preferred God's beloved goats. Because goats can not only be used for various purposes, but also bring blessings of good luck. They can also be sacrificed to giant beasts in the sea and calm storms in the sea... The captains will acquiesce to the sailors burning, killing and looting on the shore, but as long as they do not degenerate into To a certain extent, women will never be allowed on board! More often than not, when sailors bring women on board, it will be considered as a disregard for the captain’s dignity and a provocation…

"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law, are you looking for me?"

After a while, Alana came alone with a red face. He happily opened the door and looked at Columbus with a bright smile on his face.

"Eh? Brother-in-law! Isn't the big glass in your hand the one I just got today? I remember the tribesmen on that island dedicated this big glass bead to you. You thought it was a gem at first, and you laughed. He was grinning from ear to ear. Then he found out that it was a worthless green glass bead. He was so angry that he drew his sword on the spot and cut off the tribesman’s hand with one strike..."

"boom!…"

"Ah! Brother-in-law?! Why did you hit me on the head with a glass bead!...Are you crazy?..."

"Vaffanculo! Merda! It's you who are crazy! Don't give me this nonsense! Call me Commander!..."

Columbus had a ruthless look on his face, holding the hilt of the sword with one hand and the open skirt of Alana's clothes with the other, and asked fiercely.

"Alana! Let me ask you! What's going on with this woman's crying? How dare you break the rules on my ship and bring a woman on board?..."

"Ah! Ah this! Brother-in-law... Oh, Commander... We were at sea, risking life and death, and drifted for more than a month. The sailors had already gone crazy with the stress!... Now that we have finally reached the shore, we encountered these again The islanders who don’t wear clothes. The beautiful and well-proportioned women on the island have alluring figures. They are naked and don’t even have much hair. They even use paint to draw on their lower abdomens... This... who can resist this?... "

"Merda! Alana, you idiot! Whether you kill people on the island or play with native women, I don't care!... But let me ask you, who is it? Who asked you to bring women on board? Are you messing around and breaking the rules on my ship?!…”

"Ah! I...this!..."

The hanging oil lamp emitted a faint orange light, shining on Columbus's fierce and blue face, like a zombie crawling out of a grave. Seeing Columbus's eagerness to devour others, the guard chief Alana shuddered and finally realized the seriousness of the problem. He licked his lips nervously and replied quietly.

"The Lord witnesses! The commander... is... the second boatswain Chachu took me and a few sailors to the village on the shore, and grabbed a few good-looking young women to have some fun... After they came up, the little half All the sailors participated. They all gagged their mouths at first, but it was just because they got anxious that the woman started crying..."

"Well, what I'm doing...didn't you ask me to have a good relationship with the sailors and win them over?..."

"Vaffanculo! Alana, you idiot, you don't understand anything!... Damn it! It's Chachu's thorn again!... Go! You immediately gather a few cronies, get weapons, and come out with me!...Merda! Today At night, I have to cut off this guy’s head and hang it on the mast to feed the birds!…”

"Ah? Commander! Brother-in-law! You don't mean it! ... Lord! Brother-in-law, stop, don't be impulsive! You also know that Cha Chu is a thorn in the side, and he has several sailors under his command. The sword skills are so strong... How could he just let us kill him?... You really have to leave the captain's cabin and go find trouble for him... When the time comes, he will come over to kill him, and he will be hung on the mast... I don't know who it is... Woolen cloth!…"

Alana turned pale and blocked the door of the captain's cabin, hugging Columbus's waist tightly. Columbus, with an angry look on his face and a rapier in his hand, breathed rapidly for a while before gradually suppressing the urge to kill. He knew that Alana was right. After discovering the land, he had just established his authority as a commander. This majesty is enough to command the fleet normally, but when it comes time to lick blood from the blade of the knife, it may not be as good as the two bosuns who mingle with the sailors...

"Merda! I'm going to hang these idiots sooner or later! ... No! No! Although this guy can fight, he has no brains... Tonight's scene, maybe he was instigated... Hmm! This thorn If the sword stays here, it’s probably aimed at me!…”

Columbus stood there, his face uncertain, his thoughts racing. After a moment, he suddenly sat back on the chair and asked in a deep voice.

"Alana! Think about it again! Was Boatswain Chachu the first to take the lead? Or was there someone else who instigated..."

"Well!…"

Guard Chief Alana stood nervously at the door, pulling her hair and thinking for a while, before answering uncertainly.

"It seems that at the beginning... Boatswain Bato mentioned that he hasn't touched a woman for a long time? Then two people started making noises. They seemed to be senior sailors following Captain De La Cosa... Could it be..."

"Bosun Bato, Second Captain Dracosa!..."

Hearing this, Columbus' eyes sharpened, the expression on his face became more ferocious, and his voice was as low as a wild beast.

"Alana, what is Dracosa doing now? Did he see you bringing women on board? What did you say?!"

"Uh!... The second captain seems to have gone to sleep in the cabin early... I didn't see him appear this night, and I didn't pay attention to the messy sailors... It's really strange to say that..."

"Merda! This guy Dracosa must be seeing my joke! Maybe, this is what he did secretly and instigated! He wants to harm me!..."

Columbus' anger surged, and he thrust the sword in his hand into the floor, as if stabbing the "idiot" crew members.

"Vaffanculo! These idiots and bad guys! As soon as they discovered the new route, they all started thinking about it... If I had a 'knife' handy, I would pull out two thorns and chop them to death, and establish the rules on the ship. !…”

At this point, Columbus gritted his teeth and his face was filled with murderous intent. It's a pity that he doesn't have anyone who can kill people, so he still can't control the scum on the ship. At this moment, he suddenly missed the group of Shinra mercenaries he had encountered. Those people were all good at killing without blinking an eye! …

"Merda! If I leave the captain's room now and see those idiots doing whatever they want... If they kill people, it might trigger a rebellion. If they don't kill people, the dignity of the commander will be trampled under their feet again..."

"As a captain, if I can't hang sailors, how can I establish real authority? And as long as I have enough gold, I can hire those lawless guys... not only to kill people and write off the accounts, but also to suppress the sailors... etc. Next time you go to sea, you must”

Columbus's expression changed, and in the dim light, he gradually became a little gloomy and dangerous. After a while, he looked at Alana and gave instructions in a deep voice.

"Witness the Lord! After having been making trouble for so long, these idiots must have vented their anger... Alana, you are the captain of the guard and the person I trust most! I can only ignore what you have done. To...you go back now, gather your cronies, and deal with the women you brought aboard!"

"Ah! Commander, I'm going to deal with it? How to deal with it?..."

"Merda! How to deal with it, do you still need me to tell you?!"

Seeing Columbus's ferocious expression, Alana was startled and nodded knowingly.

"Yes! Commander, I understand..."

"Then why don't you get out of here! Merda! Remember to keep an eye on that guy De La Cosa! If I find the opportunity, sooner or later I will kill him..."

Columbus's ferocious voice gradually became deeper and quieter. Alana's heart trembled slightly, she took a deep breath and walked out of the captain's room with a ruthless expression. After a while, there was a quarrel among the sailors on the ship, followed by several women's screams, and vague curses from the sailors. Then, there were a few "plops" of heavy objects falling into the water, and everything became quiet again.

In the captain's cabin, Columbus listened for a while and finally smiled a little. He lowered his head, continued to write the end of today in his voyage diary, and prayed to the merciful Lord.

"Merciful Lord! Merciful and wise Queen and King... These weak and friendly islanders are Christians who can convert to the Lord, and they are also subjects who can obey His Majesty... The brave commander of the expeditionary force will definitely dedicate himself to the service of the Lord. The Lord spreads the faith and also spreads the glory of the Queen...Bless these ignorant Indians and bring them into Your Majesty's merciful rule!..."

The tide surged, blood drifted in the night wind, and also merciful prayers drifted. And when the long night passed, Columbus's fleet set sail again.

On October 14, Columbus's fleet left San Salvador Island, sailed southwest, discovered and named Santa Maria Island (Crooked Island). The island has a very wide bay, suitable for building a port. On this long and narrow island, they were once again warmly welcomed by the Taino tribe, traded for more valuable cotton balls, and forcibly collected all the fragmentary gold. After confirming that there was no threat from the Tainos, they had a good time in the village and captured six young Tainos on board the ship as gifts to the queen.

"God bless! They know nothing about military affairs... As long as the queen and king give an order, we can bring all the natives back to the Kingdom of Castile, or detain them all on the island! Because, with fifty of us, we can conquer thousands of islanders. No matter what we want to do, we can do it..."

After writing such a diary, Columbus also learned more details about the surroundings from the captured Tainos. There were obviously many large and small islands in the offshore sea where he was located, which he named "Bahamas", which means "shallow sea". What he is looking for is the island tribe with gold and more wealth...

There is no doubt that the Taino's weakness in these Bahamas has greatly stimulated his ambition and the desires of all the crew! Their superficial humanity gradually disappears, while the beasts inside are more and more stimulated...

"Witness the Lord! The outstanding naval commander has made up his mind! Whenever you arrive at an island, you must occupy one! Only in this way can you claim to occupy all the islands and control the entire archipelago!..."

The fleet sailed along the narrow island of Santa Maria and discovered the island's northwest promontory. Here they gathered the Taínos, first with small gifts, and gathered all valuable goods. Then, they discovered traces of gold, forcibly obtained all the gold jewelry, and for the first time discovered strange leaves with unknown uses, as well as the cassava eaten by the islanders. In fact, this was the first time Europeans had seen tobacco from the Caribbean islands...

On October 16, Columbus's fleet discovered and named Fernandina Island (Long Island). They continued to capture and interrogate Taíno people, wanting to know where the big island and tribe that held the gold were? And the information they received was mixed between true and false, making it difficult to tell the difference. On the one hand, the reason is the language barrier between the two parties. On the other hand, if the captured Tainos cannot answer valuable information, they will be whipped or even killed by the sailors, and they can only talk nonsense...

"The natives of the Indian Islands call gold 'Samote'... It is said that there are large islands rich in Samote around here, and they are also to our south, or southwest... In addition, we also saw a very Big chickens, a thin white dog, and several kinds of trees with strange branches... The natives here have larger wooden houses, which are very clean and tidy inside, with coarsely woven cotton threads, and unmarried women don't have them. clothing…"

On October 19, UU Readingwww.uukanshu.com Columbus’ fleet discovered and named Isabela Island (southwest of Crooked Island). Here, they "traded" with the Tainos several more times, but some Taino tribesmen had already begun to flee into the woods. They hunted some iguanas near the woods, and learned the name of the big island "Cuba" from some Taíno people.

"God bless you! There is indeed a huge and rich island to our south, which is called 'Cuba' by the local natives! There is a big kingdom there, and there is a lot of Samote gold and a lot of cotton in the kingdom. And the big glass beads we obtained from the natives along the way did indeed come from there. It is said that there is a very big ship on that big island, and the natives said it is as big as our ship!…"

"The Lord is witness! The wise commander of the expedition has determined that the big island called Cuba is the 'Sipan Ancient Japan'!... We are not prepared to fight in this fragmented Indian Islands, among these poor and naked natives. No more time wasted on me... We have to go directly to Japan in the south, which is only a hundred or two hundred kilometers away!..."

On October 24, Columbus’s fleet finally set sail again from Isabela Island. But this time, the fleet's course was adjusted due south, heading straight to the eastern section of Cuba's Snake Island, and sailing quickly towards the ancient Japan of Sipan that everyone had longed for!
