The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

Elizabeth looked back nervously. Philip made a massive invasion. Her greatest hope at the moment was the British Navy.

However, the strength of the British Navy is far inferior to that of Spain.

There are only 200 naval warships under the Queen's name.

The enemy and we are outnumbered.

Fortunately, there are Pirate Kings like Drake!

There are more than 100 pirate warships under their control.

Calculated in this way, it is still much less than the Armada.

Can this battle be won?

Seeing the Queen's worried eyes, Drake just smiled evilly, took off the pirate captain's hat, and bowed: "Your Majesty, please rest assured! Although the Spanish Armada is indeed powerful and overwhelming, this battle However, our country of Ying also has a chance to win!"

"Oh?" Elizabeth's beautiful eyes lit up: "As expected of the legendary pirate king, Lord Drake! Do you have a way to surprise and win?"

Drake calmly said confidently, "Although the Spaniards have an absolute advantage in numbers, God bless me, Great Britain!"

. .

Chapter 1441 History, something went wrong [5]

Ke walked to the window, pointed at the dense fog outside, and said proudly: "This fog is the best example of God's protection of my king!"

Elizabeth's eyes became brighter, and she said repeatedly: "Then, please tell Lord Drake, how can we defeat the invincible Armada?"

Drake was confident, like Zhuge was alive, burning Chibi, he almost took a feather fan and said proudly to the queen and many generals: "Although there are many armadas, the speed of the Spanish galleons is relatively slow. There are so many of them. In the English Channel, the troops cannot be deployed, and the sight is obscured by the thick fog. Instead, we are at a disadvantage. As long as we organize a surprise attack fleet and suddenly enter from the flanks, we will surely catch the Spaniards by surprise and make them regret that they invaded our British Empire! "

Admirals, loud applause!

Elizabeth, thankfully, she had the foresight to take in the pirate king despite all the arguments.Now when the Spaniards are pressing down on the border, the admirals are helpless, but this resourceful and experienced pirate king is the final word~!

"Okay!" Elizabeth said excitedly: "In the name of the Queen of Great Britain, I appoint you, Lord Drake, as the commander of the United Fleet of Great Britain this time! Be sure to catch Philip II by surprise and teach Philip II a hard lesson!-"

Drake took off his hat gracefully and bowed, and said politely: "My honorable queen, this will be my supreme honor, Drake! The pirate fleet under my command will shed the last drop of blood for Her Majesty the Queen!"

Elizabeth was even more excited.

Usually Drake is a bit selfish, and he would never charge forward when there is no benefit to it. This time, Drake has shown his loyalty to the country, and Drake has performed very well.

However, the young queen immersed in the fantasy of victory did not notice that the delicate mustache was slightly raised on the mouth of the pirate king Drake, who lowered his head and looked respectful, showing a treacherous look.

But this scene fell into the eyes of another person.

a jazz.

Isaac Newton.

Yes, that's right, this Newton is the one you are most familiar with.

(Note, Isaac Newton was born in 1643, which is equivalent to the 14th year of Ming Chongzhen, one year before the demise of Ming Dynasty. Here, for the sake of the plot, he was born in 100 in advance by 1543 years.)

Newton is a professor at Cambridge University and a fellow of the Royal Academy of Sciences. At this time, he is a knight and the queen's personal adviser.

Newton stayed on after the Queen's Council was over.

"Newton, what's the matter?" Elizabeth asked.She has always attached great importance to this young and talented scientist.

"Your Majesty" Newton frowned and said, "I don't think you should trust that Pirate King Drake! Not to mention, handing over the entire United Fleet to his command. This is tantamount to entrusting the safety of the entire Ying Kingdom on On a capricious pirate."

Elizabeth frowned: "But only Drake can lead the United Fleet and win the victory against the Armada. The other admirals are helpless."

Newton said sternly: "Entrusting other generals, at most, the battle at sea is not good. Our country can still stick to London, but if Drake has a second heart, our combined fleet will be in extreme danger..."

Elizabeth was also caught in a dilemma.

On the one hand, she believes that Drake is the only wizard who can lead the country to victory; on the other hand, she is unwilling to ignore Newton's reminder.

"That's good." Elizabeth called a confidant: "Is the inside line next to Drake ready to ambush?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty the Queen!" said the confidant, "That is a pirate leader who followed Drake very early, and Drake trusts him very much."

"Okay, keep an eye on Drake!" Elizabeth ordered.

Newton still frowned.

The queen's arrangement still made him uneasy.

But he couldn't make any further admonitions, so he could only think of a way.

In the thick fog, a powerful fleet quietly left Portsmouth, the largest military port in the UK.

This fleet has almost exhausted all the main naval forces of the UK, more than 200 royal warships, and more than 100 various pirate ships.

Compared with the 1000 uniform Spanish Armada, this joint fleet undoubtedly looks a bit shabby, but in fact, looking at the whole of Europe, it is also an absolute maritime power that can produce more than 300 naval warships.

·····

Under the cover of dense fog, the combined fleet barely attracted any attention and disappeared on the cold sea.

"At the Queen's order! Sail! Forward!" Drake, the commander of the United Fleet, held up the pirate knife in high spirits and shouted to issue an order.

The admirals of the British navy are a little uncomfortable with obeying the orders of a pirate king, but the queen did appoint him as the commander-in-chief, and they can only obey orders.

However, the fog is really strong today, and there are no people on the opposite side.
