    The Aegean Sea Island, West Island and several surrounding islands originally belonged to the Ottoman Empire. However, through the "Erzinjan City Agreement", several islands were ceded to the Ming Empire and became the Ming Empire's second place in the Mediterranean.  colony.

    Because of its unique geographical location, Xihai Island is located in the Aegean Sea and is the only way to the Black Sea. A large number of commodities from the Ming Dynasty passed through Nayun Province, then through the Black Sea and the Turkish Strait to the Aegean Sea, and then were transported to the northern coast of the Mediterranean Sea.  Italy, France, Spain, Portugal and other countries.

    Relying on such an emerging golden sea trade route, Xihai Island also developed rapidly and became a famous trading island in the entire Mediterranean, gathering merchants from all over.

    There are merchants from the Ottoman Empire who brought slaves from Eastern Europe, which is currently the largest business in the West Island; merchants from the Arabian Peninsula, they brought tall Arabian horses; merchants from France, their goods are mainly wine, this thing  Very popular in Daming

    A large ship flying the flag of Ning State sailed towards Xihai Island from the south. On the deck of the ship, Alexei and Andrei stood upright, facing the sea breeze and looking towards Xihai Island ahead.

    ¡°The scenery of the Mediterranean is really good!¡±

    Alexei looked at the West Island in front of him, with blue sky and white clouds, tall buildings standing on the top of the West Island, seagulls flying in the sky, warm sunshine, beautiful beaches, and ships extending in all directions.

    The last time he passed by here, he was still a slave. In the cabin where the slaves were held, he could not see the beautiful scenery outside at all.

    This time, I can finally appreciate the beautiful scenery of the Aegean Sea. It is so beautiful that it is intoxicating.

    "Actually, they are almost the same~"

    Andrei didn¡¯t really know how to appreciate the scenery. In the Principality of Moscow, he was a serf and came from the lowest level, so naturally he never cared about these scenery.

    "Yes, it's actually the same. It's just that our situation is different, so the world is different."  99&#32&#29306&#22914

    When Alexey heard this, he smiled and sighed.

    The two of them traveled thousands of miles this time. From Tianzhu Ningguo, they first took a ride to Egypt, then took a boat from Egypt to Xihai Island, and later planned to take a boat to the Black Sea and reach Crimea, the northernmost part of the Black Sea.  Khanate, and then from Crimean Khanate to Muscovy.

    They want to return to their hometown, to the Principality of Moscow, and then bring all their relatives to live in Ningguo.

    The two people, who were originally just humble slaves, fought bravely and performed outstandingly during Ningguo's attack on Beitianzhu. Not only did they regain their freedom, but they also received a large amount of land, wealth and slaves as rewards. On the Ningguo side, they realized  The salted fish turned over.

    But the two of them have not forgotten their family members who are far away in the Principality of Moscow. They have also traveled thousands of miles and taken huge risks to return to the Principality of Moscow to pick up their families and live together in Ningguo.

    The whole journey has been very smooth, because the areas around the Indian Ocean are basically the vassal states and colonies of the Ming Dynasty. For the people of Ningguo, it is no different from their own home. ãá reduce .com ãá

    As for the Red Sea area where there are many pirates, after the Red Navy's suppression in recent years, they have been wiped out. In Egypt, the relationship between Egypt and the Ming Empire is very good. Both sides are building the Egyptian Canal, which will be opened next year.  It will then be much more convenient to travel between Europe and the Indian Ocean.

    The truly dangerous place is the Mediterranean. Since ancient times, there have been so many pirates, including Ottoman pirates, Arab pirates, Viking pirates, English pirates, etc. Almost every merchant ship walking on the Mediterranean Sea will turn into a pirate ship if given the chance.  .

    Of course, here in the Mediterranean, everyone has a consensus that it is best not to provoke the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty has two colonies in the Mediterranean and stationed two navies to protect the Ming¡¯s interests in the Mediterranean.

    As long as you dare to loot the ships of the Ming Dynasty, these two navies will pursue you. No matter which country or place you escape to, no one will dare to take you in unless you are prepared to withstand the artillery fire of the Ming Dynasty.

    Of course, although the majesty of the Ming Empire is very useful, anything can happen on the sea. The ships of the Ming Dynasty often carry a large amount of goods and treasures, and looting one is enough for these pirates to live a good life.  .

    There will always be some people who are not afraid of death to attack passing Ming ships. This has also led to the fact that in the Mediterranean, besides the slave trade, the hottest business is the escort business., because even the Ottoman Empire was unwilling to bear the anger of the Ming Dynasty.

    ??????????????????????????????

    Mi He Mi.  Looking at the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty, Alexei and Andrei couldn't help but straighten their backs. They are now considered people of the Ming Dynasty. Ning Guo is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and the people of Ning Guo are also protected by the Ming Empire.

    It¡¯s just that the two of them are Slavs after all, and there is a huge difference in appearance from the people of Ming Dynasty.

    "I think so too. If it were just the two of us, we would have died without a burial place before we even reached the Principality of Moscow."

    Andre thought for a while and agreed. Although they were from Ningguo and were protected by the Ming Empire, they were Slavs after all
