The city of Tunis, to which Aruj returned in triumph with his two capturedpapal galleys, was very suitable for its new role as a haven for the corsairs. LaGoletta, the harbour, was more than adequate for the shallow-draft galleys; therewas ample water nearby; the harbour was protected from attack. barbaroslar episode 25 bangla subtitles watch now

 

fortifications;and the Sultan of Tunis had already shown himself friendly to the Barbarossabrothers. Indeed, upon his first arrival, Aruj had paid intelligent court to thisSultan of the house of Hafs, Mouley Mohammed. Both he and his brother “werekindly received by the King, who granted them free entrance and protection inhis ports, with liberty to buy whatever they wanted; in return to which favour,the corsairs agreed to give him the tithe of all their purchase or booty …”Now, within a brief year of concluding this business arrangement with thebrothers, the Sultan had good proof of the advantages that could accrue to himand his state.

“A great procession was formed of Christian captives marchingtwo and two. Four young Christian girls were mounted on mules, and two ladiesof noble birth followed on Arab horses sumptuously caparisoned.These unfortunates were destined for the harems of their captors. The Sultanwas greatly pleased at the spectacle, and as the mournful procession defiledbefore him, cried out: ‘See how Heaven recompenses the brave!’ Barbaroslar Episode 25 English Subtitles.

Meanwhile the galley slaves were transferred from the two ships to the bagnioor slave quarters. Until such time as they might be required again at sea, theirlabour would be used to restore the fortifications and improve the harbour wallsand defences. Fine ships though the captured galleys were, they were larger thanAruj really needed for his future operations. Throughout his life it is noticeablethat he rarely used large galleys, which required a captured slave population torow them. barbaroslar episode 25 bangla subtitles watch now

The large galley of those days was the battleship of a later century—and a battleship was not what the determined corsair needed for his business. Topursue the modern analogy, he needed a destroyer: a swift, easily manoeuvrableraiding vessel. The time would come when the Barbarossas were forced to keeplarge galleys, manned by slaves, in order to engage their enemies on equal terms.But so long as their main objective was raiding the European shipping lines,

Aruj’s brother Khizr (Kheir-ed-Din) is reputed by some authorities to havebegun his service as an oarsman in Aruj’s ship. Certainly, it is a fact that at thefamous battle of Preveza in 1538 many of the victorious Turkish galleys underthe younger Barbarossa were part-manned by Turkish freemen.

volunteers, often janissaries by origin, were regarded as more efficient (andnaturally far more trustworthy) than slaves, who might be expected to mutiny atthe first available opportunity.

Another great advantage in employing your ownrace at the oar was the fact that, when battle commenced, the oarsmenthemselves became part of the fighting force. In the large Christian galleys, onthe other hand, the oarsmen were redundant—indeed a dangerous liability—themoment that an engagement actually started.

A Turkish galleot, therefore,manned on the system adopted by the Barbarossas, might be half the size of aEuropean galley, but every man in her would be a fighting man, and every manin her would be a Turk, or fellow Moslem, eager for battle.Aruj’s technique in these early years seems to have been to keep one largegalley, manned by slaves, in company with him, while relying upon a number ofgalleots to do the fighting and secure the prizes.

The galley was something of an“insurance policy,” kept at hand in case a fighting vessel of her own size mightbe encountered. In our own century this method of operating against enemy shipping might be compared to having a flotilla of destroyers in company with aheavy cruiser, the latter being on call if need be, but otherwise nearly all the work being done by the destroyers.

As evidence of this we find that Aruj now “armed out both the galleots and one galley.” Leaving Tunis quickly before the advent of winter closed the sea toshipping “he scoured the coasts of Sicily and Calabria, taking several vessels,and a considerable number of slaves …” As in the ancient world, the sailingseason was extremely limited,

and with the first signs of bad weather bothmerchantmen and warships were laid up until the spring (usually the month ofMay), when they were launched once again.The astonishing success of this first year’s operations out of the port of Tunismust have been more than encouraging to the brothers and the Sultan.

westernMediterranean of Turkish warships would go unnoticed in the courts of Europe.For the first time for many years the news of these shipping disasters began tosuggest to the European powers that some concerted action might have to betaken. But the time was not ripe for any such combined effort.

Countries andnations that were just beginning on the road towards nationalism were unlikelyto be able to co-ordinate against a common enemy. The extraordinary success ofthe Barbarossas over the years to come was largely promoted by the fact that “ahouse divided against itself cannot stand.” It is a lesson that, even four centurieslater, has not yet been learned by the nations of Europe.The terrain, the coastland, and the natural harbours, lakelike lagoons, sal
