Chapter 405: Meeting at Sea (Part II)
A gust of wind blew, and Robert's tricorne, which was enlarged, shook so much that he had to reach for it.
At the same time, the two clinging warships were pushed together by the waves, and the oak planks of the ships creaked against each other, and the thrust generated by the extrusion pushed the two ships away from each other, but the hook chains that connected the two ships straightened and dragged the giant ship together.
Back and forth, both ships shook slightly, and the swing of the ship caused Robert, who was distracted to hold his hat, to become unstable on his feet and almost fall.
The Galen-class ships at Robert's feet were newly finalized second-generation Galen-class, and their broadside was deliberately built a little higher than that of the Dreadnought. Therefore, at this time, Robert was in a slightly higher position than Obi Lane, and his embarrassed appearance of almost falling down Obi Lane should not be visible.
Grasping the railing, and calming down slightly, Robert spoke:
"I believe that the current situation has changed beyond our previous expectations, and the next plan should be adjusted. ”
"Ahem!" Robert cleared his throat and continued, "Your army does not need to land in the south, the five southern cities will declare their independence from the Duchy of Castia. ”
Obi Lane immediately refuted: "This is not in line with our country's war expectations!"
"Plans can't be set in stone, and my plan can bring greater benefits to Stuart. ”
Obilane didn't interrupt Robert's performance, as if you continued, I didn't believe what you said anyway. His task was not to negotiate directly with Robert, but to listen to Robert's terms, and the bargaining should be left to the politicians.
Robert continued to explain: "As long as I relax the suppression, the army on the western front will definitely take the initiative to provoke the war, and then it will be time for your so-called new army to perform, and of course I will also help you to create difficulties for the Castilian army." How much profit you can capture after that depends on your own ability.
As soon as the war begins, I will declare the five southern cities to secede from Castia, but not to join the Stuarts, but to pledge their allegiance directly to the Crown. ”
Allegiance to royalty?
Hehe!
Obi Lane sneered in his heart.
It seems that the Baptiste family first received the knighthood by sending the nautical formation to the royal family, and Obilane, as a navy, is naturally very familiar with this history.
"In addition, I have the ability to delay the royal intervention in the war, at least ......three days," Robert continued to increase his leverage.
Break away from Castile?
The five southern cities are thousands of miles away from the Gyeonggi region controlled by the royal family, as well as the northern region, and even if they declare allegiance to the imperial family, the imperial family will not be able to effectively control them.
In the future, Robert's position should be like that of the mayor of the New World, and like Hoffa of York, well, it seems that the power is greater than that of the mayor, and it should be hereditary.
Is this a chess piece who wants to leave the chessboard and become a chess player?
His hand was already able to reach out to the imperial capital? No wonder he had to be willing to be a pawn.
Does the Grand Guild of Amon agree?
Robert upped his stakes: "Three days is just the least estimate, I can get the royal family to react five days after the war between the two countries begins." As long as you are fast enough, you can reach the city of Rand in five days. Then declare a truce before the royal family joins the war, swallowing the benefits it gets.
By the way, if you don't need to land in the south, you can still transfer this part of your forces to the colonies in the New World. I heard that the Bright Dog is not easy to deal with, even the city of Tavare has been occupied by them, the Governor of Neutra led the army to break through and retreat to the north, the colony needs support, you ships loaded with artillery can restrain the Bright Dog......"
Robert spoke eloquently, describing his plan quite well, but Obillaine knew in his heart that even if he did not need to land in southern Castia, Grand Duke Amon would no longer send troops to rescue the colonies in the New World, and Robert had received the news behind him, and he had no idea what kind of enemy the colonial army was facing.
"I see!" Obiline, whose heart suddenly became agitated, interrupted Robert's demagogic words, "I will relay your proposal to Lord Amon, now...... If nothing else, let's leave it at that. ”
"Uh...... Okay......" Robert was confident that he could convince Stuart's naval commander to persuade Archduke Amon instead of him, but now it seems that this man should only convey his proposal, and it would be nice to keep making trouble for himself.
Could it be a mistake?
According to the information provided by the Mithril Society, after learning that the Kingdom of Light had attacked Stuart's colony in the New World, he immediately asked for orders from the Grand Duke of Amun, wanting to lead the army to the New World to regain the lost territory.
Why is there so little interest in supporting the New World at this time?
There must be something I don't know about, and it seems that the work of reporting to Stuart needs to be strengthened.
Sailors began to move on the decks of the two ships, and they unhooked their hook chains, adjusted their course, hoisted their sails, and the ships gradually sailed away from each other.
Obilane, who was on the dreadnought-class battleship, watched Robert's ship fade away, but his mind was not about the war with Castile, but drifted to the New World across the ocean.
The day before he left Londinium, the Marquis of Sosa, who had been sent to the city of Tavaré to negotiate with the Kingdom of Light, returned to Londinium.
The news that the beautiful woman brought back did not make people's blood boil, and Obilly, as a high-ranking general, attended and listened to the report of the marquisess.
The Bright God Kingdom has a transcendent at the level of the Beast King!
And more than one!
There are three people known so far!
One of them was able to defeat the Beastmaster who destroyed Tavaré thirty years ago!
Obilane had been involved in rescuing Tavaré when he first joined the Navy, and although the Beastmaster had already had enough to toss and leave when his ship arrived, he still saw Tavaré in ruins.
Tens of thousands of people were killed by the Beastmaster like ants, and even the Grandmaster would be caught and torn apart by the Beastmaster if he ran slowly.
The Light God ** team, which has also mastered gunpowder weapons, is already very powerful, and they also have the Beastmaster, how can this recover the colony?
It is said that during the battle outside the city of Tavaré, the Bright Dog, riding a wild boar of alien beasts, dared to charge at the army formation that had used the "phalanx" of the synergistic source energy technique, and before it was about to collide with the spear of Rulin, he pulled out his musket and struck at the transcendent who performed the synergistic source energy skill.
The "phalanx" could not defend itself against the muskets, and once the caster was wounded by the muskets, the synergistic source energy was interrupted, and the fanged boar could crash into the formation, tearing the formation apart.
Thanks to the muskets, the entire battlefield became a paradise for boar riders.
Originally, everyone hoped to counterattack with the same army equipped with gunpowder weapons.
Now that he has learned that the other party's high-end combat power is so powerful, even Grand Duke Amon has dispelled his mind of retaking the colony occupied by the Bright God Kingdom, and just wants to negotiate and stabilize the existing situation as soon as possible.
The lost land should be recouped by the Castilians, and it is not known what the attitude of the Grand Duke to Robert's suggestion was.
The battleship turned back and sailed towards Lendinium, where Commander Obilane returned to his heart.
