Teenagers are ambitious and show their talents abroad.
In A.D. 1480, Magellan was born into a declining knight family in Portugal. At the age of eight, Magellan was sent to the palace and became a waiter. There, he began to receive some education. Magellan lived in the palace for nearly five years. He used to be the queen's maid and was deeply loved by the queen. After coming out of the palace, Magellan continued to study, and he soon became interested in sailing. /kloc-at the age of 0/8, Magellan entered the maritime affairs office. There, he learned about the great voyages of Columbus and da Gama, and began to study the most advanced geography and navigation technology at that time. Soon, his research was interrupted. 1505, Magellan was drafted into the army and participated in the Portuguese military conquest of East India and Malacca until the end of the war in 15 1 1. After several years of navigation and war, Magellan gained a lot of navigation knowledge and experience, which laid a solid foundation for his great voyage around the world. 15 1 1 year, Magellan who just returned from Malacca was sent to the battlefield in North Africa. After returning to China, he continued to work in the maritime department. At this point, Magellan's mind was already conceiving a grand adventure. He firmly believes that starting from Portugal and sailing west, bypassing the southern tip of the "New World" discovered by Columbus, you can definitely reach the Damo Luca Islands. He consulted relevant information and referred to the experience of many other navigators, and put forward a complete plan. He longed for the plan to be accepted by the king, but the Portuguese king regarded Magellan's plan as a fantasy. Magellan felt greatly insulted. He left his motherland in anger and went to Spain. He wants to find a supporter and sponsor for his plan. Shortly after Magellan arrived in Spain, he met astronomer Luis Farreru, who had the same experience as himself. Louis Faleru, also a Portuguese, found a method to measure longitude accurately, but it was ignored in Portugal. Magellan and Louis Falleru hit it off at once. Magellan explained his plan to Farrell, who agreed and was willing to help Magellan realize his ideal. Magellan and Falleru came to the India Committee in Seville, and they declared that the Moluccas, Portugal's most important source of wealth, should belong to Spain, because it is located on the Spanish side of the western hemisphere (according to the world demarcation line 1494). But if the Spanish want to reach the "spice country", they must sail west to avoid attracting the attention and suspicion of the Portuguese. Magellan eloquently argued that there must be a strait discovered by Balpuya between the Atlantic Ocean and the South China Sea (Pacific Ocean), which is located in the south of the Holy Cross. From Spain, cross this strait to the west, you can enter the South China Sea, and then you can go to Damocka Islands. Magellan's plan and exposition persuaded the people present, and the Spanish king sent representatives to summon them. Finally, King Charles I of Spain promised to equip five ships with treasury funds and provide food and supplies for the expedition for two years. The material conditions have been met, and the next step is to recruit crew members. Because Fallujah refused to take part in the expedition on the eve of sailing, Magellan became the only leader of the expedition. The crew recruitment is progressing smoothly. The crew of the fleet includes 225 crew members, 26 volunteers, 4 captains appointed by the King of Spain and Magellan himself, totaling 256 people.
