"Really, there really are artillery roaring!" Someone immediately shouted in surprise.
No matter what kind of artillery roar, in short, no matter how bad it is, it will not be worse than the current situation. Therefore, even if they did not understand the situation, they were very happy!
With a "pop" sound, a wine glass was suddenly thrown to the ground.
The bartender was the most sensitive. When he turned around, he found that it was Rafe who had provided him with a free glass of wine before.
Raf also saw the bartender looking at him, smiled apologetically, and then raised his arms and shouted: "Guys, let's go and see if the weather will change!"
The implication is to see if there is a chance to overthrow the Spanish rule.
If you think about it carefully, you will realize that this is impossible. The previous Portuguese independence was suppressed by Spain! The situation is worse now, so what if they have a chance to beat the Spaniards in Lisbon? If Spain sends troops again, it will still be suppressed!
However, at this time, they didn't think so much at all. They all followed Rafe's example and slammed the wine glasses in their hands to the ground. Suddenly, the bar was filled with the sound of broken wine glasses. Then a group of people rushed out of the door.
"You guys are damned!" the bartender looked at the broken wine glasses on the floor and cursed angrily. But after he finished cursing, everyone in the bar was gone.
He seemed to be dumbfounded for a while, and suddenly, he suddenly threw the wine glass he was holding for the guests to the ground with a "pop" sound, and then rushed out of the bar door.
This bar is remote, but not far from the sea. After all, in the past, people who went to sea liked to drink the most. A group of people in this bar heard the "boom boom boom" of cannons more clearly after going out, and from time to time saw the sound of iron bullets hitting the city wall in the direction of the port.
What made them even more delighted was that they actually saw that the Spanish defenders did not rush toward the port, but instead ran in the opposite direction. He looked panicked, as if he was running away!
After a while of surprise, everyone was a little dumbfounded: What is going on? What was attacking from the sea that could make the Spaniards escape in such a desperate situation?
Thinking like this, Ludkin came to his senses and was the first to run to higher ground. As this was not enough, he quickly climbed over the wall and climbed onto the roof of the house high up. He stood on the roof and looked towards the port.
But when he saw it clearly, he was immediately stunned.
The fatter Rafe was not as skilled as him. When he saw that he was already standing on top, he shouted: "Who is calling?"
"Yeah, tell me, who scared the Spaniards so much that they pissed themselves off? I'm so happy!" The person who had just come back was impatient, so he asked directly below. Others asked, equally anxious to climb onto the roof.
However, they saw Raph's face full of shock, dumbfounded, and did not answer their words at all.
Seeing this, Rafe became even more curious. In desperation, he picked up a stone and threw it at Luther King.
I’m so curious, I really can’t guess what’s going on at the port!
After being hit by a stone, Ludkin finally came back to his senses, looked down at the anxious crowd on the ground, laughed suddenly, pointed a finger in the direction of the port and shouted loudly: "The fight is back, the fight is back, we Portugal fleet, and..."
"What, the Portuguese fleet, the ones in South America? How many of them will scare the Spaniards to shit?" When Raf heard this, he didn't believe it at all and immediately asked loudly.
"No! I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you anxious?" Ludkin laughed after hearing this.
But before he could explain, another person who climbed over the wall shouted ecstatically: "Wow, so many fleets, thousands of fleets, the Ming army, the Ming army is coming!"
"Yes, the Ming fleet is coming! Hahaha... The Ming fleet is coming!" Another man on the roof shouted ecstatically.
"It's the Portuguese fleet from South America leading countless Ming fleets to come!"
"..."
Once upon a time, those who went to the colonies were those who could not make it in the local area, or those who dreamed of making a fortune, which were looked down upon by many people. But at this time, the vast majority of the Portuguese wished they were a member of those fleets and fought their way back to Portugal, just like what they saw before them.
"Haha, my neighbor's eighth aunt's son must be on that battleship. Okay, give me a good beating!" Someone shouted with joy.
Rafe couldn't see it, but he could already imagine how many battleships were coming back. Thinking of the Spaniards running around with their heads in their hands, he simply waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Guys, what's the point of just watching? Kill the Spaniards!"
"Let's go, we must not let them escape like this!"
"And those Portuguese traitors, go fuck them!"
"..."
Suddenly, everyone got excited and shouted, following Rafe to take revenge!
The people on the roof saw everything correctly. In the direction of the port and on the sea, there were densely packed masts, just like a moving forest on the sea.
The ones rushing at the forefront are the warships of the Portuguese in South America. They are familiar with the roads and want to liberate their motherland. Many people on the battleship are Lisbon, and they don't know how worried they are about their relatives back home.
Now that he has countless Ming warships as his backing, he is very strong-willed and wants to take Lisbon back as soon as possible and go home to see his relatives.
Behind these Portuguese warships is the Ming fleet. On the bow deck of the flagship, Catherine was here, most excited.
Originally, she wanted to go to Anders' flagship and rush to the front. But Zheng Zhilong didn't agree and asked her to stay with him, so she couldn't go. If something happened, he couldn't bear the responsibility.
At this time, Catherine looked at Lisbon in front of her, feeling familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.
The palace can be seen and is still there. However, the owner of the palace is no longer there.
Lisbon is still Lisbon, but the owner of Lisbon has changed.
There are still memories of his father and several younger brothers in his mind, but they will never be seen again. All the memories of the past in Lisbon are as vivid as yesterday. But when I look at Lisbon in front of me, I can't go back to the original time.
Things have changed and people have changed, just in less than ten years!
"Father, my daughter is back!" Catherine murmured to herself, and the tears never stopped flowing down her cheeks.
Although Zheng Zhilong was old, he still had sharp ears and heard what she said. Although Catherine spoke in her native language, you can probably guess what she meant by her tone and expression.
So, he comforted him: "Your Highness, don't feel sad. As soon as the army arrives, the Spaniards will run away. I believe Lisbon will be able to avoid the damage of the war to the maximum extent."
Zheng Zhilong did not have the ability to resurrect Catherine's family, so he could only persuade them from other aspects.
The Spaniards only resisted slightly at first, then abandoned their position and fled. Catherine saw this herself. When he heard this, he nodded, without wiping away his tears, and said in a sincere tone: "Thank you so much!"
Of course, she expressed her gratitude as a former Portuguese, and even as a member of the Portuguese royal family. Only at this time can she use this identity. Because she knew that according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, if you marry a chicken or a dog, you will be a member of the Ming Dynasty. In the past, it would not have been suitable for her to think of herself as Portuguese.
But this thank you should be said.
You know, the Ming army really came from thousands of miles away. For them, it was a farewell to their loved ones at home, not knowing when they would be able to go back, but all they wanted to do was help Portugal recover and take revenge!
"Haha, Your Highness said that, you are out of touch." Zheng Zhilong smiled after hearing this and tried to minimize Catherine's sadness and said, "If you really want to thank your Majesty, it will be enough to thank Your Majesty when I see you again in the future!"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Catherine to reply, he pointed to the shore and said: "Look, those must be the Portuguese, they are also beating up the Spaniards. And over there, they all came to the shore and came to us. The fleet is waving and cheering. If they know that His Highness is here too, they will definitely be very happy!"
When Catherine heard this, she really forgot about her sadness for a moment, and quickly looked in the direction of Zheng Zhilong's finger.
Sure enough, on the shore, some Portuguese were attacking the panicked Spaniards, while others were crowding towards the shore, waving their hands and cheering desperately. Some of them hugged each other, then separated and cheered, hugged again and so on. In short, there was an ecstatic mood that spread to the fleet through the air.
"I'm back, I'm back!" Seeing this, Catherine couldn't help but wave, even though she knew that even if she waved, the compatriots on the shore would probably not be able to see it, but she still waved in response and said excitedly at the same time.
At this time, the Portuguese warship as the vanguard of the fleet had already docked at the port. Some of the Portuguese sailors on the battleship jumped off the ship directly, while others swung off the ship with ropes. With their unprecedented bravery, they shouted and stepped onto the land, rushed to the streets of Lisbon, and then disappeared into the buildings. middle.
Then the Ming warships docked, and groups of Ming sailors wearing red military uniforms came ashore. They did not rush into the streets immediately. Instead, they immediately began to stand guard near the port and advance in depth in this way.
The Ming Dynasty fleet was so large that in the end, the warships could no longer dock, so they had to go to the warships docked in front and then go ashore.
By the time Zheng Zhilong accompanied Catherine ashore, the gunshots from Lisbon could no longer be heard. Obviously, the army should have completely controlled Lisbon.
