- In the Spanish colonial settlement of Accra in the Bay of Nenin in West Africa, Governor Perez of Arak is inspecting the city of Arak. Since it was looted by pirates last year, Accra, which suffered heavy losses, has had to strengthen its defenses in all aspects.
Additional forts were added to the port. They were numerous and powerful enough to easily cover the entrance and exit areas of the port. At the same time, the city walls of Arak were reinforced and heightened, and an additional 2,000 soldiers were stationed in Accra.
As the governor here, Perez has also developed the habit of patrolling here every day. He does not want to be captured and sold as a slave to the Ming Empire as soon as he wakes up.
He has heard some rumors. Rumor has it that what those raging pirates like to do most is to treat people as slaves to the Ming Dynasty. After all, a white slave can be sold for dozens of taels of silver in the Ming Empire.
"Damn pirates, sooner or later you will all be guillotined!"
While patrolling, Perez could not help but curse.
Because pirates are rampant on the Gold Coast and even pirates on the Mediterranean have become rampant, the governors of their overseas colonies are also facing tremendous pressure.
牺如 baolaixsw.com 牺如。The colony was attacked by pirates, looted, and transported treasure ships They all bear huge responsibilities for being robbed. The King of Spain has dismissed several overseas governors one after another, which has added tremendous pressure to Perez.
? Overseas, the income is indeed good.
As the governor of an important colony, Perez is able to make a lot of wealth every year. From the gold, silver, ivory, gems, and slave trade on the Gold Coast, he can also make a lot of profits every year. From here, he obtained a huge wealth of more than one hundred thousand taels of silver.
This is also the reason why he has persisted here. Money is the most powerful motivation.
"Perhaps we should consider attacking Chief Songhai. Anyway, the young men are idle here, and they should give full play to their role and value."
Looking at the soldiers who were lazily basking in the sun, Perez thought in his mind.
The colonial stronghold of Accra is located in Nening Bay, backed by the Songhai Empire, the only relatively powerful country in West Africa. Of course, this Songhai Empire is called an empire.
Si minus 75zho*n gwen .co*m* Si. But in fact, they were very weak and very primitive. Peres did not take them into consideration at all. In his words, he described the emperors of the Songhai Empire as the chiefs of Songhai. This shows that he has great regard for the indigenous people here. Despised.
Holding a telescope and looking at the sea outside the port, it is very calm, with blue sky and clear water, sea and sky connected, seabirds flying in the sky, very peaceful.
¡°What a great day!¡±
Perez praised.
He was about to get up and return to his Governor's Mansion, ready to have a good sleep.
Everything is good here in Arak, but the weather is too hot. It is already winter at this moment. However, the temperature here is still very high and there is no coolness at all. Taking a nice nap is a habit he has developed all along.
¡°Dang~dang~¡±
However, at this moment, the alarm sounded on the watchtower, and the clanging sound echoed over the colonial stronghold.
"What happened?"
Peres suddenly lost all sleep. He picked up the telescope and looked at the sea again, but there was nothing on the sea.
"On land, on land~"
On the top of the watchtower, the watchman pointed to the land and shouted.
"On land?"
When Perez heard this, he quickly looked over and saw the shadows of the flags moving in the open field. There were many of them, not just two. And the key is that one look at these flags and you know that these flags are definitely not something that the native Africans can do. from.
Because whether it is the fabric of the flag, the color dyed on it, or the pattern on the flag, none of it shows that this army is an army from the civilized world.
"This is impossible!"
Perez held a telescope and looked at the mighty army marching towards the colonial stronghold on the ground, showing an expression of disbelief.
The fluttering lion and sun, as well as the green background, are undoubtedly the army of the Persian Empire.
"Did they cross a distance of tens of thousands of miles and directly cross over from land to West Africa?"
Perez frowned.
About Persian Emperorsp; "Bang~"
The sound of gunfire, like fried beans, kept ringing out. The Persian soldiers at the front kept falling, but soon, the soldiers behind them came up.
Soon, they came to the moat staring at the huge pressure.
"Prepare~"
"Aim~"

The Persian officer in charge roared angrily, and soon groups of Persian soldiers raised their muskets and aimed at the Spaniards above the city.
¡°Bang~¡±
A dense burst of gunfire rang out and billowing white smoke shrouded the Spaniards above the city. Suddenly there was a burst of screams. Faced with such a dense volley, it was almost difficult for anyone to escape, even though many of them were exposed. The lead bullets were all placed on top of the city.
"Team 2~"
"Ready to aim~"
"Shoot!"
牺如 shucang.cc 牺如。Soon, the first team finished fighting, and the second team continued to aim They attacked the Spanish defenders on top of the city. These Spanish defenders were about to counterattack, but what greeted them was a dense barrage of bullets.

The bridge was lowered.
"Hit me, hit me~"
"Oil pan, pour hot oil on it~"
Perez anxiously continued to direct at the top of the city. He was very anxious and frightened
