Latest website: Under the command of Cheng Yu, the South China Army stormed into Venice with lightning speed.

Venice was lost, and the country that once held the most powerful human, material and power in Europe fell into the hands of the Chinese!

Venice is a water city. It began to develop in the 10th century. Around the 14th century, it has developed into the busiest port city in Italy. It is known as the most famous water city integrating business, trade and tourism in the entire Mediterranean. It flourished in the 14th to 15th centuries. During the period, it became Italy's most powerful and wealthy maritime "republic" and one of the Mediterranean trade centers. It was even able to use the power of a small country to carry the mighty Ottoman Empire and launch a vigorous and colorful confrontation with the Baotou guys.

At the beginning of the 16th century, with the discovery of the American continent by Columbus, new shipping routes were opened, European commercial centers gradually moved to the Atlantic coast, and Venice gradually declined.

However, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and the Venetians are quite wealthy.

They store gold and silver in their homes, antiques, and jewellery in their homes...Before they completely ruined their possessions, they were successfully bargained by the Chinese.

Regardless of sacrifice, Cheng Yu pushed forward violently and achieved considerable results.

Of course, there were some losses. More than 1,000 people were killed and more than 3,000 injured.

The harvest includes precious metals such as gold, silver and copper, silk fabrics, leather goods and other materials, as well as jewellery, antiques, and the sale of poor Venetians as slaves. There are countless estimates. It is worth more than 20 million silver dollars. This is the Venetians’ accumulation of four. Five centuries of wealth!

This benefit is very generous. Cheng Yu used more than 50,000 troops. Even if one person rewarded one hundred silver dollars, it only used a quarter, and the remaining silver dollars were handed over to the national treasury.

With such a high income, it is no wonder that the South China Empire became richer and richer and richer!

Within his authority, Cheng Yu rewarded the army, which was one hundred silver dollars per capita, which was the highest reward for the South China Empire to go out for war.

Of course, the points cannot be evenly scored. For example, the Marine Corps squad that captured the Venice Coastal Fort, as a knife-edge forward, must widen the reward and punishment gap. Some people can get ten times more rewards, for the officers and soldiers killed in street fighting. Family members should also be heavily subsidized.

The heroic actions of Major Tian Beiguang, who commanded the capture of the fort, were listed as a model of wisdom and bravery by the tree. He reported it to the emperor. Under the emperor’s reward, he gave Tian Beiguang a baronial title. Since then, his family has received one. Iron rice bowl, handed down from generation to generation!

The titles of the two Chinas are divided into 20 ranks. If there is no title of "hereditary indeterminate", they will be lowered to hereditary, but when they are reduced to the lowest auxiliary general, they will no longer be descended, and the nobility will be passed down to the world.

The generals of the auxiliary country also have five rank officers.

And because of Qi'en, the emperor in the future is happy, and it is not impossible to mention the title of the descendants of the Tian family.

As there are a large number of transport ships available for mobilization near the area controlled by the South China Empire, Venice’s property and population have been moved away, and there is no “waste”. When the South China Army retreats, there are only 5,000 old people in the city!

Since then, Venice has been devastated, and the city of Water has become history!

Cheng Yu not only took away wealth and population, but also broke the local roots!

He used bombs to destroy the Doge’s Palace, the symbol of local rule, and then he transported all the collections of the prestigious San Marco Library back to his country. What’s more, the Basilica of San Marco, which represents the connotation of Venice, was demolished by him. It was in ruins, and the body of Saint Mark, the saint buried in the Basilica of Saint Mark, was exhumed by him, chopped into several pieces, and thrown into the water!

The Venetians had expected St. Mark's blessing. Today, even their saint was killed by Cheng Yu, and the myth has been shattered!

When the news came out, Baipi hated Cheng Yu into his bones, and some Christians gave out 300,000 silver dollars to buy his head!

It was not only Venice that Cheng Yu destroyed. His fleet drove along the Apennine Peninsula into the Mediterranean, looting, killing and setting fire all the way!

As a result, Ravana, Rimini, Pesaro, Ancona, Pescara...the city was captured by him, and he robbed as much as 50 million silver dollars, more than the silver dollars in Venice, because he robbed them. Too many people arrived, causing the price of male white skins in the Egyptian slave market to plummet to one-tenth of the original price!

The price of female white leather has been strong due to how much the two Chinas paid for beautiful female slaves. Even if a large number of female white leather arrives, the price will only drop by a few percentage points.

However, the Chinese people are not very interested in male white skins, and purchases from other countries are also limited, and sales cannot be opened, so they have to cut prices.

The harm that Cheng Yu did to Italy is exhausted. It caused the population to die down in coastal areas. People fled to the mainland one after another. They hated Cheng Yu and remembered this half-human devil!

His fame is so loud, hearing the name of "half-man devil", Baipi Xiaoer dare not cry at night!

After receiving a large amount of supplies, Cheng Yu led the fleet directly to the island of Malta in the center of the Mediterranean Sea. His order was that the island of Malta would be China's territory since ancient times!

The island of Malta, also known as the Maltese Islands, has an area of ​​316 square kilometers and is mainly composed of five islands including Malta Island, Comino Island and Gozo Island. It is 90 kilometers from the Italian island of Sicily and 300 kilometers from the African continent. It is a sea bridge connecting the two continents.

Due to the sea transportation fortresses of Europe, Asia, and Africa, Malta is also known as the "heart of the Mediterranean".

Although this island is a small place, the emperor highly valued the island. Cheng Yu must seize the island for the emperor. Then the "Knights of Malta" stationed on the island must either surrender or become history!

The Knights of the Sovereign Military Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem, Rhodes and Malta, also known as the Knights of Rhodes and the Knights of Saint John, have many titles. They are now stationed on the island of Malta and are also known as the "Knights of Malta".

The Order of Knights appeared during the Crusades in the Middle East during the Catholic European invasion of the Middle East. After the first crusade ended in 1096-1099, four crusade countries were established ~lightnovelpub.net~ in order to defend the Holy Land Jerusalem, Rome The Pope organized several knights of monks, these are the three famous knights in history, namely, the Knights of the Hospital, the Knights Templar and the Teutonic Order.

Later, Jerusalem was taken down by Saladin, the hero of the Middle East, and the Knights had to retreat. The Knights of Hospital first retreated to Cyprus, where they did not stay long, and in 1309 they withdrew to Rhodes. In Rhodes, the Knights used the navy to stop Baotou Lao’s expansion into the Eastern Mediterranean.

When Constantinople fell into the hands of the Turks in 1453, the Knights of Saint John the Baptist on Rhodes was the only Christian force in the entire Eastern Mediterranean.

The resistance in Rhodes continued until 1522. That year, Suleiman I commanded 200,000 troops to Rhode Island on 400 warships, and the Knights on the island had only 7,000 soldiers. Although the strengths were very different, the Knights remained independent for 6 months. The Turkish army reportedly killed 50,000 people in the battle (Siege of Rhode Island). Finally, the Knights reached an agreement with the Turks, and the Knights withdrew from Rhodes.

After they retreated to the island of Malta, today, they face a new test: the Chinese are here!
