"Peak, hover the submarine at a height of five meters from the bottom of the sea, and slowly approach the sunken ship. The bottom of the sea does not seem to be very flat. For safety's sake, don't fall on the bottom of the sea."
Ye Tian took a quick look at the seabed terrain outside the submarine, and then said to Pique driving the submarine.
"Ok, Steven"
Pique nodded in response.
When the voice fell, this small Aurora submarine stopped diving and hovered steadily in the deep sea about 300 meters, only five meters away from the seabed.
When the submarine stopped, Ye Tian immediately said excitedly:
"Guys, it's time to explore the sunken treasure. Let's see what exactly this Spanish Galen ship is for? Is it loaded with attractive gold and silver treasures!"
"Awesome! Steven, get started, I can't wait!"
Johnny said excitedly, his eyes as bright as searchlights.
"The same is true for me, Steven. I can't wait to explore pirate treasures and shipwreck treasures. This is my childhood dream. I didn't expect it to happen. It's so cool!"
Orlando was equally excited, staring at the sunken ship in front of the sea, unwilling to blink his eyelids.
With that said, they had picked up their respective binoculars and began to observe the ancient Spanish shipwreck ahead, so it was fun, isn't it?
"Hahaha, everyone's childhood dreams have pirates and shipwreck treasures, especially mysterious pirate treasures, which are full of temptations. When I was young, I even wanted to be a pirate captain!"
Ye Tian said jokingly, a trace of remembrance flashed in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, he turned his head and said to Pique:
"Pique, drive the submarine over and stop about five meters from the sunken ship"
When the voice fell, the small submarine immediately moved and moved slowly toward the sunken ship on the seabed ahead.
After a while, the submarine had arrived at the predetermined position and stopped steadily.
It was not until arriving here that everyone really saw the full picture of this Galen sailing ship.
This is a 50-meter-long Galen sailing boat with six decks, three of which are located below the main deck, and the other three are located on the main deck. It is mainly a wooden ship building.
The four iconic masts on the main deck accurately reveal the origin and origin of the Galen ship. This is indeed a Spanish four-mast Galen ship, without a doubt!
In addition, the decoration of this sailboat that can be seen from the outside is also a strong proof.
Outside the portholes of this sailing ship, a large number of sculptures can be seen. After hundreds of years of sea water erosion, these sculptures are no longer in their usual colors and appear very dark.
But from its intricate patterns, as well as the characters and stories reflected, it can be judged that the galleon belongs to Spain.
After the completion of the Spanish Galen, the interior decoration is usually funded by the state. This sailing ship that has been sleeping on the Caribbean seabed for hundreds of years is one of them.
During the decoration process, the Spaniards will engrave the inside and outside of the sailing boat portholes, and decorate religious figures and Spanish historical stories in the form of sculptures or oil paintings, which is extremely gorgeous.
These renovations take a long time, often as long as several months.
The decorated Galen ship has a dark main body, bright colors on the corners and ship floor, and sometimes inlaid metal edges.
All in all, the decoration of the Spanish Galen boats carried their strong religious and national feelings, and made the Spanish Galen boats more eye-catching than other European countries.
After the decoration is completed, the Spaniards will also conduct a naming ceremony for the sailing boats. Important ships are usually named after saints and saints, or other religious figures.
The Galen ship in front of me has a good name, called ‘St. Anthony’. The ship’s name is engraved on the side of the ship, not far from Ye Tian and the others, and the handwriting is faintly visible.
Obviously, this is not an unnamed sailing ship, but an ocean-going sailing ship with a certain status, and its information may be found in some documents.
Compared with the three-masted gallons of the same period in the UK and Northern Europe, this galen hull is larger, has a larger carrying capacity, and a deeper draft.
Of course, it also appears more cumbersome at sea, and the response is not very flexible.
Ye Tian visually estimated that the displacement of this Galen ship should be as high as about 800 tons. In the sailing age, it is definitely a majestic behemoth across the Atlantic Ocean!
But this is not the largest Galen ship. The largest Galen ship made in Spain has a displacement of up to 2,000 tons! In that age of sailing, it was very scary!
In the famous Spanish Invincible Fleet, in 1588, there were more than ten giant Galen ships with extremely powerful firepower, which is one of the reasons why they are called the Invincible Fleet!
It is a pity that this kind of giant Galen ship is more suitable as a transport ship, and it is a bit too clumsy and unwise to use it as a warship on the sea!
Because of this, the Spanish Invincible Fleet lost to the British fleet with the smaller Galen ship as the main force in the Battle of Almada in 1588.
The failure of the Almada naval battle marked the decline of Spanish maritime hegemony and the rise of the British Empire.
In addition to quickly judging that this was a medium and large Galen ship, everyone also clearly saw the shooting ports and gun positions on the two decks and the main deck on the waterline, densely packed and numerous!
It can be seen that the initial purpose of the Saint Anthony Galen must be a warship on the sea.
As for whether it will change its purpose, become a transport ship, or a treasure ship to and from the two ends of the Atlantic Ocean, it is not known, only a careful exploration can know.
And why did this warship sink in this sea area? After sleeping on the seabed for hundreds of years, Ye Tian and the others also found the answer on the ship.
This warship must have experienced a very tragic naval battle, and only sank on this seabed after suffering nearly devastating damage!
The right side of its hull was full of scars, and there were more than a dozen holes of different sizes. Some were the size of a human head, and some were more exaggerated. The diameter was close to fifty centimeters, which could not be blocked at all.
Especially the seven or eight holes above and below the water line are shocking. This should be the most direct cause of the sinking of the Saint Anthony in the sea.
In addition to these, the wooden boards on the right side of the sailing ship are full of cracks, like a spider web, very exaggerated, and they are about to fall apart!
Under these circumstances, the Saint Anthony can be preserved intact, sleeping in the depths of the sea for hundreds of years, which can be said to be a miracle!
What Ye Tian and the others saw was only the situation on the right side of the hull. What the left side of the hull looked like was not yet known.
But it is conceivable that the situation over there is not better than there! Even worse!
After a quick observation of the battleship ahead, Pique said excitedly:
"Steven, if I read it right, this should be a warship with a displacement of at least 800 tons, which is very rare! And it is named after a saint! This is even more exaggerated!
It seems that we are very lucky. Maybe we have discovered a huge treasure. Even if there is no gold and silver treasures in this ship, the sailboat alone will probably cause a sensation! "
Hearing his words ~www.novelhall.com~ Ye Tian immediately nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
"Yes, this is indeed a major discovery, and it will definitely cause a sensation, but I hope to find a large number of treasures in this shipwreck, that is the most perfect result!"
"Wow! It's so beautiful, who would have thought that there is such a huge old sailing ship deep in the Caribbean Sea, it's incredible!"
Johnny said with emotion, his eyes fixed on the old sailing ship in front of him.
"What do you do next? Steven, I want to know what exactly this sailing ship does. It's just a battleship? Or is it full of gold and silver jewelry?"
Orlando asked aloud, with the same excitement.
"Guys, don't worry, the answer will be revealed soon, I believe the battleship "Saint Anthony" will bring us a surprise"
Ye Tian said with a smile, full of confidence.
After speaking, he was already looking at the ancient sailing ship that was close at hand.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
