Chapter 510: Estrangement

Hathaway carefully observed the three perfect objects in front of her, it took her a lot of effort to make these three mines, although there are no problems in the production process, but there are still many imperfections that need to be improved, but this is not Hathaway's biggest headache now, the most difficult thing now is to mass produce as soon as possible.

There is no way to fight on land, either to invade or to resist the invasion, and the Cordillera leads the development of the vast ocean, and the Cordillera fleet has now expanded to more than dozens of large and medium-sized warships. In particular, the newly developed steam ironclad ship will be the hegemon on the sea for a long time.

However, when it comes to the overall strength of the fleet, it is still far from being able to reach the status of 'hegemon'. The Cordillera Territory's ocean-going commercial routes have extended farther and wider across the ocean, where there are more sea monsters and pirates, and the navy needs more and sharper weapons.

Ah Ling. Hegel's side has been repeatedly urging not only to have more powerful weapons, but also to hope that Bilin. Hegel was able to return. It's just that the latter seems to prefer the work of the Pro-Guards and does not want to return to the naval sequence for the time being.

"It's a pity that I really lack knowledge about other ships, and the technical strength to build a shipyard in Cordillera is not enough, otherwise it would be majestic to get an aircraft carrier." Hathaway let out a low sigh.

In her opinion, the sea is where the dreams of mankind come true, and the construction of the navy has been very successful thanks to its own shipyards and the abundant manpower provided by immigrants.

Under the escort of the navy, caravans departing from the Cordillera were able to reach the eastern blue sea region. Weapons, food, and other Cordillera goods, the constant flow of exports, the lucrative profits and the security of security, have further expanded the power of the navy, and this is now a golden route.

However, as the Cordillera navy grew, so did the threat of the pirates, and after the destruction of the original large pirate groups, the scattered little pirates gathered again, and they could no longer resist the greed in their hearts in the face of the temptation of the golden route. Thus Ah Ling. Hegel's fleet was at stake.

If it's a pirate of the size of the Iron Skull. Ah Ling. Hegel thought he could barely cope with it, but after the pirates assembled, they formed a large-scale wolf pack tactical attack. Hegel had some difficulty coping with it. So he asked Hathaway for a new weapon...... This guy doesn't know where he got the message.

However, after Hathaway revealed that he was going to create a mine. Ah Ling. Hegel's demand was heated and cut. If he can equip the fleet with mines in large quantities, he is confident that he can sweep the entire blue sea, and it will not be difficult to completely send the enemy to hell.

Sample-to-batch. It's not too difficult, the key is that the trigger device is very delicate, fortunately, a large amount of gunpowder ingredients have been delivered from the demon plane, and in terms of raw materials, there is no problem.

……

Caesar's distorted face looked extremely hideous, and the momentum that had been accumulated with great difficulty was completely overwhelmed by the momentum of the northwest.

In order to let those big nobles contribute these private soldiers to enrich the war spirit corps, Caesar did not spend a lot of money on these guys, and countless promises and good words made the private soldiers squeezed out by these guys to set up the shelf of this war spirit corps.

The capable officials of the Imperial Praetorian Guard and the Royal Knights have also been enriched into this war spirit corps as officers by themselves, so that this war spirit corps can really look like a corps.

Caesar didn't expect Hathaway's support for Patrek, but he never imagined that Hathaway would directly send an army to build momentum for Patrek, and the influence and significance of the barbarian army far exceeded its actual value.

Caesar didn't believe that the barbarian army could compete with his war spirit army and the knights and court mages behind it, but the problem was that his own spirit had been suppressed by the other party.

The whole of Odegardi talked about this supposedly formidable barbarian army, and no one believed that Dietrich would bow to him in such a situation, but some nobles were worried that if this barbarian army came over, it would cause a great chaos like the rebels in the south, and plunge the entire central hinterland of the empire into complete chaos.

If that were the case, the foundation of his rule would collapse completely, and the lords who had been ostensibly supporting him might soon take the opportunity to declare their independence, a situation Caesar could not have imagined.

"Lord Leonardo, I need the help and support of the Natural Church, especially at this time, as long as I can defeat that crude barbarian army, I will give you more rights to the Natural Church, so, I hope you can invite more magicians and priests to help me, please believe me, it won't be too long, two months at most, everything will be cleared."

Caesar had to suppress the anger in his heart, staring at the other party and saying word by word.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness Caesar, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I can understand your current feelings, but the Holy See has ordered our Natural Church not to intervene in disputes over the internal affairs of the Empire, and because the rebels' activities are quite frequent now, and the Church is also under considerable pressure, our Natural Church needs to focus on the activities of the rebels first, so for the time being, some of the mages of our Natural Church will return to Heidelberg. However, please believe that it will not be too long, and when the situation in the north has stabilized, and I have given a detailed report to Lord Stephen and the problem of the Ordgar Empire, I am sure that the Holy See will soon give you a clear answer. ”

Leonardo had to show a look of regret on his face, but the light in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest, he really couldn't help the requirements of the heir to the throne, and the activities of the rebels were quite rampant at the moment, especially the appearance of those magical powers that caused the vigilance of the Church of Nature.

Clearly, the rebels are good at hiding their power. Without more than a hundred years of cultivation and preparation, it is impossible for their magical power to create such a big momentum at once, and they also put on a posture of fighting against the Imperial Court Mage Regiment, which caught the Natural Church a little off guard, and they had to consider what measures to take if the rebels attacked the Natural Church, so they concentrated the power of the Ostiga Empire on Heidelberg.

If this decline is not reversed in time, Leonardo's pessimistic estimate is that the dominance of the Church of Nature in the Otiga Empire will be severely challenged. In the face of the interests of the church, how can the interests of an heir to the throne be in his consideration?!

Caesar's face became unusually ugly. This damn guy. At first, he defected from the province of Casef to Heidelberg like a lost dog, and was arranged by himself in the court mage.

He had promised himself that he would fully support him, and now he used such a pretext to push himself.

What bullshit rebel threat, think you don't know?

If it weren't for the fear of bad impact. I'm afraid these guys would have turned their heads in favor of the rebels a long time ago. But now. Once these natural church mages leave. The strength of the court mage group was half lost, and he did not know how many cards he still had hidden in his hand that had not been played. The conquest of the southwest is impossible to mention.

"Lord Leonardo, I can understand the embarrassing situation of your Natural Church right now, but I believe that the rebels will never dare to harm you. Look at the current performance of the rebels, after capturing Heidelberg, there is almost no other move except to pretend to get a so-called Confederation of Southern Will out, if their power is really strong, then why not take the opportunity to go south? ”

"The Empire's armed forces have been largely lost, and the rebels know better than we do that with the support of a powerful mage force, they can fight all the way north to Zimwe. But they didn't, which only shows that their power is still weak, and it is not as strong as we think.

As long as the Northwest issue is resolved, with the support of the four major lords and the help of your Natural Church, I believe that the rebels' stay in the territory of the Ostiga Empire will be short. ”

Leonardo listened politely to the other party's opinion, it was obvious that the other party was very dissatisfied with his attitude, but he was helpless, he must obey the orders from the Holy See, not to mention that the situation of the natural church is indeed not good now, and shrinking the strength to resist the threat from the rebels is the most urgent problem.

"Your Highness Caesar, I will report your opinion to the Pope and the two archbishops as soon as I return to the Holy See.

Now the north-west side is violent, but there is no real action, those barbarian armies are nothing more than a faΓ§ade, not enough to worry about, you just need to keep calm and restraint, this momentum created by grandstanding will not be long before it will disappear, and then as soon as the Holy See accepts your advice, we will help you get back what belongs to you. ”

"Oh, I really hope that His Excellency Leonardo will be able to get the exact instructions from the Holy See in the shortest possible time, I have waited too long, the Ordga Empire cannot drag on like this any longer, otherwise it will be an irreparable disaster, please be sure to convey my request to the Pope and the two archbishops."

Leonardo had a comforting smile on his face, which was extremely depressed in Caesar's eyes, this guy always pushed himself so lightly, and said it was extremely easy, but now the situation is changing day by day, once the mages of the Church of Light of the court mage group return to the Holy See, who can say clearly what the southwest side will do when they get the news? At that time, what role could the Holy See, thousands of miles away, make, perhaps they had already made up their minds to cooperate only with the ultimate victor

Caesar shuddered at the thought of this, if he lost the support of the natural church, and the big lords were all thinking of changing their positions at any time, maybe they were also expecting Dietrich to overthrow him, so that they could take advantage of the situation and become independent, which was the last thing Caesar wanted to see.

But now he can't change this situation, and it all stems from that damn Marquis of Cordillera!

Who would have thought that this worthless marquis would create such a big trouble for himself at this time, and the best way to solve the problem in front of him is to cut off Dietrich's reliance, that is, to make an idea from Hathaway.

So can you only keep a low profile and restraint now?

Caesar thought reluctantly, Dietrich was now in a state of momentum, openly threatening that the royal court had rejected his succession qualifications, and that he was the only one who was qualified to inherit the Phiwenlie dynasty.

He is now using this demonic wind to make the small and medium-sized nobles and businessmen in the entire northwest region ready to move, looking like they are ready to change the sky, and even those small nobles in the central region who have not been silent are also a little moved, if they take countermeasures at the right time, they may really be overturned by the other party.

As for the great nobles, although they support them now, in fact, their demand is very simple, that is, to defend their own interests, if Dietrich succeeds, and then make a promise to them, I believe that those great nobles will also not hesitate to abandon themselves.

……

"How can this be true? What did he mean by letting that girl go to the Cordillera at this time? Dietrich slapped the table in a gaffe, the cups on the table shook, and the tea overflowed.

"Your Highness, you don't have to worry. You can give her what Caesar can give, and if he thinks that he can talk by sending a woman over, then he is very wrong. "Leonardo. Beirut said.

"Humph! If he promised her a large territory, and then gave her the duke, would Hathaway still be able to resist the temptation? Dietrich said with a calm face.

"Really? If Caesar had done this, he would have had the courage. However, he seems to see Hathaway as one of those insatiable lords. As far as I know, Hathaway has no interest in the status of a duke, or the status of a high lord. If it weren't for the fact that she was trying to plug up Grand Duke Kasef, she wouldn't even accept the northern part of the province of Casev.

What's more, if Hathaway can really help the empire solve the problem of division or those big lords, what if she is given the title of grand duke? But this is definitely not a casual promise. "Leonardo. Beirut said. (To be continued......)
