Concise language sums up the deeds of Columbus.

Christopher Columbus was born in the Mediterranean city of Genoa in 145 1. He is a world-famous explorer.

He was deeply attracted by the East described in Marco Polo's Travels since he was a child, longing for exploration and navigation.

When he was young, Columbus became a sailor, studied navigation, astronomy and geography, and mastered Latin, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian.

Columbus often thought: Since the earth is round, people can go east around Africa and go to China. Then, sail west from Europe and cross the Atlantic Ocean, and you will definitely reach Asia. However, this sea route has never been crossed by anyone!

Columbus decided to find a sea passage from the Atlantic Ocean to Asia and China! He asked Tuscany Neri, a famous Italian geographer at that time, and received enthusiastic and selfless support.

At that time, America had not been discovered, and European countries rumored that Asia was a treasure land, and arachis duranensis was drooling over the legendary gems, silk and spices there. So, when Columbus asked the king of Spain for support, the king gave him ten thousand pounds.

1On August 3rd, 492, Columbus set out from the southern tip of Spain with three sailboats and 87 crew members, and sailed into unknown sea areas that were not marked on all charts at that time.

After more than a month's voyage, the fleet encountered a green sea covered with thick Sargasso. It took the ship more than ten days to get rid of their entanglement, but the sea is still boundless.

The crew lost patience and confidence, and they demanded to return. Only Columbus is still full of confidence. After he said that he would double the reward for everyone, the fleet continued to move west.

After 7 1 day continuous sailing, the fleet found a piece of land! The crew cheered, and the depressing atmosphere was swept away. They landed on land and raised the Spanish flag. Columbus announced that he would occupy this place on behalf of the king and named the island "San Salvador".

The indigenous people here are half naked, their skin is neither white nor black, their faces are painted with colorful patterns, and women have gold pieces hanging on their noses. They think these white people are gods and dance to welcome them. Columbus found that the island was poor, with neither jewels nor gold. He asked the local people, "Where did the your gold plate come from?" "It was brought from the south." The local people replied, but where is the south? They don't know. The next day, Columbus once again led the fleet to the vast sea, continued to look for the so-called gold-rich South, and crossed the Mahama Islands in Central America.

On this day, the fleet landed on a piece of land, which Columbus thought was the Asian continent, and the land under his feet was a peninsula in China. So he sent two men as envoys to the mainland to see Emperor China.

A few days later, the messenger came back dejectedly and said, "There are shacks all the way, and the village is very poor, unlike China, which is prosperous and rich." Columbus didn't know it was Cuba Island, and thought it was the poorest province in China, so he ordered the fleet to continue southward.

Soon, Columbus discovered two big islands one after another and named them "Spain Island" and "Haiti Island" respectively. He still hasn't found China.

At that time, Columbus didn't know. He discovered a new continent that Europeans had never known before. From here to Asia, there is a Pacific Ocean much wider than the Atlantic Ocean.

On March1March 16, 493, Columbus led his fleet back to Spain, which was the day when the Atlantic route and the discovery of America were opened. Columbus always thought that the land he discovered was Asia, but why was it in Kyle's place? What's the difference between Poirot's description? He wanted to find out whether it was Asia or not, so Columbus led the fleet across the Atlantic for the second, third and fourth time and discovered South America. But he didn't know it at the time.

After several voyages, Columbus found that the mainland was not rich and had nothing in common with the Asia people were talking about. He gradually realized that these new lands were not China.

During the long voyage, due to the threat of hot weather, food decay, rainstorm, seawater corrosion and yellow fever, the voyage became more and more difficult, and Columbus had to leave the New World with regret.

The porcelain he was looking for never appeared.
