With that said, General Levi quickly descended from the watchtower and headed straight for Grand Duke Rose's residence.

A fierce naval battle was going on outside the port. Although it was still several miles away from the port, the rumble of the cannons could be faintly heard in the port, so Justice Rose was listening to the report of his attendants.

When General Levi arrived, Grand Duke Rose stood up and grabbed General Levi and said: "Levi, is the Ming fleet coming to attack the port?"

Levi nodded slightly and said: "Grand Duke, the Ming Dynasty is coming fiercely. We are worried that the fleet alone will not be able to stop them for too long. I am sure the Grand Duke will mobilize troops and horses to station in the port, just in case!"

Grand Duke Qiangwei immediately said: "I will dispatch troops to the port."

While speaking, Grand Duke Qiangwei looked at General Levi and said solemnly: "Levi, tell me, with our current strength, can we defeat the Ming army, defend the port, and defend the Strait of Gibraltar?"

Levi's face showed a bit of embarrassment when he heard this, and he slowly shook his head at Grand Duke Rose amid the ugly look on his face.

Although Levi didn't say anything, his attitude showed everything. If Levi was confident, he probably wouldn't shake his head in silence.

Understanding what Levi meant, Archduke Rose couldn't help but angrily punched the void and gritted his teeth and said: "If you can't hold it, you have to hold it. What significance does the Strait of Gibraltar have to Spain, even if it's me?"

If I don’t tell you, you should know that once we lose the Strait of Gibraltar, we will all have to go to court-martial.”

Losing the Strait of Gibraltar, a strait that can be called the throat of the Mediterranean, would have a huge impact on Spain's status as a naval power and its economy.

Spain is known as a naval power with few rivals. If it fails, even such an important place as the Strait of Gibraltar will be occupied, what kind of face and reputation will Spain have?

Staring at General Levi, Grand Duke Rose suddenly said: "I will hand over all the command of the army to you, Levi, are you sure that you can guard the port and the Strait of Gibraltar for my Kingdom of Spain?"

General Levi stood solemnly and said suddenly: "Long live Spain!"

With Grand Duke Rose's order in hand, General Levi strode away.

After General Levi left, Grand Duke Rose sighed and shouted: "Here comes! Prepare the carriage quickly, I am going to move reinforcements to His Majesty the King!"

With Grand Duke Rose's order, coupled with General Levi's reputation and prestige in the Spanish army, everyone naturally obeyed General Levi's orders. Soon General Levi commanded most of the infantry troops stationed outside the port.

They were all mobilized and stationed in the port, setting up three lines of defense and preparing for a battle for the port with Ming Dynasty.

The sound of artillery fire from the direction of the port was shocking. At this moment, a carriage, surrounded by a group of cavalry, left the port and left.

In the port, the ships of the Spanish fleet sailed out of the port one by one, but they quickly sank outside the port. In just over an hour, a large number of ships sank on the sea outside the port.

As many as ten battleships.

So many warships sank, and the hulls of many ships were piled together and even exposed on the sea.

When the last battleship slowly sank, the rumbling sound of shelling finally stopped, and in the port, many people couldn't help but shed tears when they saw the entire Spanish fleet wiped out.
