Chapter 971 Don't worry

If the Ming fleet in Lisbon had not been dispersed, all countries would definitely contribute all their warships.However, the fleet of the Ming Dynasty, even with the addition of the Portuguese fleet, is less than [-] ships. The fleet assembled today is considered by European countries to be absolutely enough!

Of course, some people are worried.For example, on the British side, Robert is worried about that kind of iron-clad smoking warship.

However, they don't know how many new warships there are in the Ming Dynasty's fleet?Although some people were sent to inquire about the news, the Portuguese were very united. The people sent there were either discovered or basically unable to move, so they did not get much useful information.

However, after Robert and others discussed it, they could probably estimate that there should be no more than ten ships at most.

As far as ordinary warships are concerned, the joint warships of European countries are definitely more powerful than the warships of the Ming Dynasty.In this way, the advantages will offset each other, and the number of warships on our side is three to five times that of the warships of the Ming Dynasty. With a high probability, the United Fleet will win.

As a result, after the fleets of European countries were assembled, they set off for Lisbon in a mighty way.

........................

Warships from various European countries assembled with such fanfare, as long as Portugal was not deaf, of course they would have known about it for a long time.Therefore, from the very beginning, some people suggested that before the fleets of European countries have assembled, they should pre-emptively dispatch the fleets to destroy them one by one!

However, this suggestion was not adopted.Princess Catherine told them, don't worry, with the Ming Fleet stationed here, nothing will happen.

Seeing that she was so confident, the Portuguese were relieved a lot, and turned to heated discussions, asking Catherine to change her name to queen.It can be said that this topic has become the hottest topic in Lisbon.

The bar in a remote place has been renovated now. Although the location remains the same, it is much more luxurious.The people who come in and out, whether they are dressed or mentally, are all very good.

In the bar, it's no longer just drinking that bad wine.Many of them were even drinking alcohol they had never drunk before.

This wine is yellow, not iced, but needs to be heated, and the air is filled with the smell of wine.

The tall and thin guy who used to be one of the bar's regulars, Ludkinfu slapped on the counter and said, "Give me a cup of daughter's red, it needs to be hot."

"Daughter red? I suggest you have a cup of champion red, this is good!" The drinker next to him laughed and said, "Do you know what a champion is? It is the No. 1 imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty. In the future, it will To be the prime minister. Have a drink, and then go to make a man at night, maybe he will be the son of the number one scholar!"

When Raf heard this, he also laughed and said: "Wrong, it's not the prime minister, but the chief assistant!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the bartender and said, "Okay, let's have a cup of Zhuangyuanhong! The longer the year, the better, I can afford it now!"

Afterwards, he spread the knowledge to his partners: "Let me tell you, this kind of wine from Daming is more fragrant the longer it is aged. There is a custom in Daming, if a boy is born, the wine will be brewed and buried in the ground Wait, in the future, if your son wins the number one prize, he will dig it out, and this will be the number one prize!"

"Tsk tsk, Daming's wine is cultured! Compared with European wines, it's really too tacky!"

"..."

After chatting about wine for a while, the topic quickly shifted to the topic they were most concerned about.

"Tell me, why has Her Highness Catherine refused to become queen for so long?"

"Could it be that His Highness wants to return to Daming, so he doesn't want to become king!"

"Then what should we do in Portugal? Her Royal Highness Catherine is the only one in the royal family now!"

"Could it be possible that we will establish another king in Portugal in the future? Could it be General Anders?"

"This is not good. Although General Anders has made a lot of contributions, at least His Highness' bloodline has not been cut off!"

"Exactly! Besides, if Portugal leaves Daming now, it will perish again. I don't want to live in the past. If Her Royal Highness Catherine becomes queen, then Daming will definitely not ignore Portugal. When the next emperor of Ming comes At that time, maybe we value Portugal more!"

"That's right, the king of our Portugal cannot be someone else. Her Highness Catherine refuses to agree, so how about we go to petition?"

"Okay, let's go together, for the future of our Portugal, everyone!"

"..."

Just as the atmosphere in the bar became lively, it was unknown whether they were really worried about the future of Portugal, or because they drank too much alcohol, the crowd waited, all booing and preparing to go out immediately.

But at this moment, a rich middle-aged man walked in from the door, and seeing the appearance of the bar, he couldn't help asking in surprise: "What are you going to do?"

When Luther King saw it, he couldn't help but immediately smiled and said, "Raff, you came just in time!"

When the others heard it, they also shouted.

Losing his head, Raf said in a bewildered way: "What's going on, could it be related to me?"

Mr. Ludkin was the most familiar with him, and he immediately asked him loudly: "You are the most familiar with Her Royal Highness the Princess. Now that the position of Queen has been suspended, what does Her Royal Highness mean?"

"Yes, what does Her Royal Highness mean? You have to ask!"

"..."

Hearing their chatter, Laf immediately understood, and immediately laughed and said, "I really just got a letter of approval for this matter!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was happy, a little curious in their hearts, and asked questions one after another.

After Raff walked in, he was ready, and the bartender didn't wait for an order, and brought him a glass of the best-selling champion red in the bar.And the other drinkers didn't care about drinking anymore, and surrounded him one after another.

Laf took a sip of Zhuangyuanhong with a smile, tasted it for a while before swallowing it and said, "Let me tell you, this specialty wine of Ming Dynasty should be accompanied by some side dishes. Do you know if you are a hero when cooking wine..."

If they usually heard about this kind of wine culture, these drunkards would like to hear it the most.But at this time, he was interrupted and asked directly about Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine.

Seeing their anxious looks, Raff finally gave up their appetite, and immediately said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine gave birth to a prince, and he is already three years old. With the consent of Emperor Ming, Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine's prince is allowed to come. Be king of our Portugal!"

Speaking of this, he raised his voice and said: "This is His Highness's bloodline, and he is the grandson of the Ming Emperor, the son of the future Emperor Ming. You say, if he becomes our king, will our Portugal be stable in the future? "

Hearing this, after the bar was quiet for a while, a commotion broke out suddenly.

"Okay, this is really great, let's see who will dare to bully us Portugal in the future!"

"That's right, that's right. It's His Royal Highness's bloodline, and he's also the grandson of the Ming Emperor. Didn't His Royal Highness have such a plan when he married Catherine to Daming?"

"..."

All these people in the bar breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that they will be safe in the future.Among the cheers, the sound of cheers can be heard endlessly.

Seeing this, Raff clapped his hands and made a "snapping" sound, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Everyone!" Raff said loudly, "I will pay for all the news in the bar today, everyone drink to your heart's content!"

Hearing this, there was a sudden bang, and everyone cheered.Luther King even smiled and said, "Raff, don't think you have a lot of money to make, believe it or not, I'll make you poor!"

"It's my brother's, just make me poor, haha!" Raf responded with a smile after hearing this.

When the others heard this, they all interjected to compliment Lafu, this is a big benefactor!Who let him have a relationship in the palace.

The bar was laughing and laughing. Suddenly, another person rushed in from the outside. His expression was a little nervous, and he shouted loudly to the people in the bar: "No, the latest news, the United Fleet is coming to kill us in Lisbon!"

Hearing this, the bar fell silent again.

Afterwards, some of the drinkers said disapprovingly: "It's nothing, Her Highness Catherine has known about it for a long time, and the people above are not in a panic, they must have been prepared for it."

"That's right, the emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuchs are in a hurry, and the princess is not in a hurry. What are you in a hurry for?"

"..."

Hearing such words, the man became anxious immediately, and hurriedly shouted again: "The United Fleet has more than 1000 warships, and they are all of that kind of large warships!"

After hearing so much, the bar suddenly became quiet again.Such a large-scale fleet is really very rare in Europe.The most important thing is that there are currently three hundred warships parked in the port of Lisbon, including Daming and Portugal's own.

The difference in the number of battleships seems to be a bit too much!
Therefore, after Ludkinfu came back to his senses, he became a little anxious, and quickly said to Raff: "The combined fleet seems to be too many. You should hurry up and tell Her Royal Highness, and hurry up and recall the Mediterranean fleet?"

If the warships of the Ming Dynasty were all in Lisbon, let alone more than 1000 ships came now, even if there were more, that would be nothing to be afraid of.

"That's right, hurry up and urge Her Royal Highness, if you come back late, Lisbon will be in danger!"

"..."

Earlier, the reply given to them by the palace made them feel that if a war really happened, Daming's huge fleet would definitely come back.This is confidence, so don't be afraid.

But now, the United Fleet has already arrived in Lisbon, but Da Ming's huge fleet has disappeared. Whether they can make it back in time is what they are most worried about.

After hearing this, Raff reached out his hand to make them all quiet, and then said to them: "I asked Her Royal Highness about this matter before, what should I do if the fleet can't come back in time? It's better to send battleships in time. It’s safer to break it.”

Hearing this, everyone nodded, but they didn't want to change the subject of Raph's words.
