Chapter

"Your Majesty, please give me a glorious notice. I have eliminated the obstacles. Crete belongs to you! Others outside the city."

Conrad IV looked at the former port official Hesai in front of him. For some reason, from the joy of his "honored report", he felt that he had read a shallow sorrow. However, the person in front of him had no weapons, so he himself did not intend to be troubled.

Former port officer Hasse saw Conrad IV look away from his face and turn to his wife, Queen Isabella. The latter was holding a long knight sword in his hand. Seeing this, Hasse's heart jumped up.

"Very good, Mr. Jose, kneel down!"

At this moment, he had thrown away all other "distractions" and served His Majesty in front of him wholeheartedly. According to the order of Conrad IV, he bent respectfully, then knelt in front of him on one knee, and lowered his head.

"I, by the will of God, as the king of the Kingdom of Germany and the king of Jerusalem, enthroned Mr. Jose, as the baron of the Kingdom of the Kingdom. At the same time, I appointed you as the governor of Crete, and hope to see the prosperity and prosperity of your governance here!"

The government official is like a governor. As for the Lord, it means that Jose is already a nobleman at this moment and is already the governor of Crete.

"Okay, okay, my sir, you don't have to be too restrained. Because of your efforts, you are the one with the most extraordinary glory on the dining table today!"

It was naturally a very honorable thing for the nobles at this time to have a meal with the three kings and the two queens. The food on the table was rich and exquisite, and many food utensils were not anything that José had ever seen.

"Of course, I will stay until the rebels on the island are cleared!"

"Of course, with your leadership, I think these things will go very smoothly."

This is not as expected by the new consul of Crete, Hasse, who only had a few hundred men under his command. The Venetian army, which was a regular army yesterday, became a rebel or an invader today.

"To celebrate your success, Your Majesty, I will arm you a cannon team that protects the city, as my congratulations to you for the island!"

Since Zhao Fubo said this, Louis IX naturally was not willing to fall behind. He provided 300 English archers as congratulations. Naturally, he was responsible for hiring these archers. At this moment, these archers have been equipped with pulley bows and sting swords, and have undergone related training. It can be said that they are a very powerful infantry and infantry.

It can be foreseen that if they were under the protection of a team of cavalry and other infantry, they cooperated with the artillery team provided by Zhao Fubo, the Consul Cretan would have a very powerful force in his hands.

In fact, the contribution provided by Zhao Fubo is nothing but the bronze barrels of some grenade launchers and the first ten ammunition. In addition, it is a production line for manufacturing more ammunition, which is nothing to Zhao Fubo. To put it bluntly, the production line of the "hot projectiles" thrown on the grenade launcher and the "reincarnation cannon" (the stone thrower that fires hot projectiles) is just the production of gunpowder plus low-level porcelain.

Conrad IV on the dining table thanked the two of them. Although he was still a little worried at first, he had 300 longbowmen who used pulley bows, as well as weapons such as reincarnation cannons and grenade launchers, he no longer worried about the problems on Crete.

"Thank you very much. If the muskets I purchased can arrive in large quantities...!"

Zhao Fubo was not worried about this. It was just from Socotra, which was produced by arms, after receiving messages that could only be transmitted with light signals from Cyprus. Even if it took not much time to prepare the goods, Socotra was shipped from Socotra, and then passed the "road" to Mietta City, and then sent here, and the time was not a little longer.

"I think it will take a month, mainly because our message is too slow! But for the time being, with the grenade launcher, I think you can fight this way with the reincarnation cannon. First, use ordinary soldiers and newly recruited soldiers from slaves, equipped with grenade launcher, reincarnation cannon and ordinary bow to defend the city.

As for yourself, you can use a large ship equipped with reincarnation cannons to bring your elite troops to cut off the other party's shipping. I believe that there are also many official Venetian cargoes at those ports, so..."

Having said that, Conrad IV understood that Zhao Fubo had just suggested him a promising position - Pirates. And the favorable condition was that when the Cretans gained real freedom, they would support themselves.

"I see!"

Conrad IV nodded, turned his face and asked the consul Hasse again.

"Then, Lord Consul, can you tell me how many slaves are there?"

Jose's face was a little embarrassed. At this moment, the pirates' slaves were collecting the people under his command, and the specific number was unknown.

"Well, your majesty, my subordinates are doing this quickly. I believe there will be an answer before tonight!"

Conrad IV nodded and began to urge José, the new official, with an impatient look.

"Okay, things are not going very slowly, but I'm afraid there won't be too much time to rest tonight. We collect many people who know combat skills among the slaves and ask them to add the army. At the same time, the city will also post a notice of recruitment. The rest of the slaves will be sent to me! We have great use for those slaves!"

Conrad IV's arrangement obviously hoped that Zhao Fubo's signal tower on the other two islands would be completed soon. After all, the war had just begun at this moment. If he lost in the subsequent battle, Zhao Fubo had already agreed to him, and if necessary, he could draw troops to help him.

Conrad IV had nothing to choose from for the ability of the Great Song Yulin Army. Although there were not many troops in the three cities of Alexandria and Damietta Ashtrite, they were all equipped with weapons such as Rambo folding bows and reincarnation cannons.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your dedication to the construction of the signal tower. For this reason, I will handle the discount that I promised you!"

Speaking of discounts, it is about the discount for muskets. In Conrad IV, this is Zhao Fubo fulfilling his promise. When it comes to this, basically the matter on Crete has come to an end. Zhao Fubo and the others will continue to go to Europe.

"Well, I don't have to worry too much about my affairs, after all, we have the help of respectable allies. My wife and I, as well as the consul here, wish you a smooth journey to Europe!"
