Chapter Forty-Six: The Beginning of the Age of Sail. Sequence. middle

Kalas turned his head and glanced at the silver-haired female knight next to her, dressed in ornate silver armor with waist-length silver hair. Her beautiful eyes reflected the king's figure, and she never looked away from the beginning to the end. That increasingly fanatical attachment is like a pile of burning dry wood, which has a tendency to become more and more intense.

It's just that when Yania shifts her gaze to the others, her eyes will become exactly the same as Wang's in an instant, with a faint disdain and a hint of arrogance above others. I have to say that these two people are really getting closer and closer in every sense, it's like the relationship between the master and the shadow, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for each other to adapt to the days without each other after a long time.

At this moment, a soldier who had come on horseback turned over and dismounted, ran to Yanya's side, whispered a few words in his ear, and then turned away.

Jania walked up to King Pullen's side, and she whispered: "King, according to the news sent back by the sunspots on the front, the English are already preparing for a general attack, and they will start in about three days, and they may end the Northern War by the middle of spring, when William II's army will completely conquer all the territories in the north of England, and the Scots are almost unable to hold on." “

"I see." King Pullen looked at the battleship that was going into the sea in the distance and said lightly. "It's not unlike what we expected, the Scots' defeat is just a matter of time. Now that our Sixth Sun Force and the Maritime Military Force have been formed, and the Miracle November Regiment is also being trained, if we can pull those 500 heavy cavalry troops together before June, we will be more certain in the upcoming conflict. “

"How's that guy doing now?" King Pullen asked.

"Yes, according to the king's orders, Ni is now serving as the chief instructor and commander of the June Sun Legion, and my October knights have been scattered into the Miracle November Legion, and now they should be intensively training those cavalry. At the same time, the Weapons Development Department of the Ministry of Iron Weapons has been working overtime to produce iron armor covering horses, and it is believed that 500 horse armors will be built in the next month. “

"What about the French?"

"Although our intelligence services have tried their best to bribe with gold coins, they still have very limited information. After all, the flow of news from where they are far less than our royal city of Plun, and the hundred watchtowers and ten post stations we have recently built are scattered within a hundred miles around the royal city and the harbor city, and both the circulation and transmission of news are far faster than in France. “

"But thanks to the efforts of those sunspots, I finally found something useful. The French, for example, have recently been mobilizing ships on a large scale to recruit sailors. In addition, the army they had placed in the Iberian Peninsula was drawn from two-tenths, about 800 men, and rushed to Paris. “

"Eight hundred?" King Pullen's eyes narrowed slightly, and although he saw the cheering of hundreds of craftsmen on the beach, his eyes pierced through the space, looking across the shore at another royal city hundreds of miles away.

The Kingdom of France, the first power on the European continent, drove back to Paris with two tenths of its garrison in spite of its own interests in the Iberian Peninsula? Hmph, it seems that some time ago, the mobilization of troops within the Holy Roman Empire touched the sensitive area of the French, reminiscent of the private agreement between the envoys of the two countries...... I'm afraid that France was worried that Holy Rome would take the lead in snatching all the royal cities in a defensive reaction, right?

However, 800 people are insignificant. It would be foolish for such a few people to try to capture the royal city of Pleon, but if it was to prevent the Holy Romans from succeeding in their plot to monopolize it, there would be too few people. Well, these eight hundred are not so much a deterrent and a deterrent as a warning, and a very hasty one.

If I were the King of France, it would be impossible for me to use just 800 soldiers to warn my greedy neighbors, because everyone knows that those 800 men are not worth mentioning in the number of soldiers between the two countries. However, if it is not a warning but just to show one's own save, it also represents the meaning of warning the other party not to mess around.

However, in such a panicked layout and dispatch of 800 soldiers in a hurry, it looked like a cat that had been stepped on by its tail, not to mention extremely nervous. From this point of view, I am afraid that the Kingdom of France should be troubled, and this trouble will make it difficult for the Kingdom of France to withdraw from worrying about the technology of the King of Pleen for a while. But they were unwilling to let the Holy Roman Empire snatch away a qiē, which is why they had to make such an ugly show......

Then the question is simple...... On the Iberian Peninsula, what happened so much that the Kingdom of France would feel troublesome and even have to go all out? “

King Pullen looked at the rough sea, touched his chin and muttered to himself.

"What's wrong with the king? Did something happen? Yania looked at Char with a question glint in her radiant eyes.

“…… Hehe, nothing. Speaking of Yania, you've been dealing with Pandora's affairs lately, and it's been a hard time for you these days. “

"Nope! It is my honor to be able to dedicate myself to the king, so please don't ...... Forehead? “

Before he finished speaking, King Pullen had already gently placed his big hand on Yania's head, and then rubbed it gently and gently, as if comforting a coquettish little girl, and at the same time had a doting smile on his face that was difficult for outsiders to see.

Yania looked at Char's smile, pursed her mouth and lowered her head, her long hair covering her slightly hot face, and complained softly.

"Hmm...... Every time...... Cunning ......"

"Thank you for your hard work."

Lowering his arm, the armor made a kerala sound.

King Pullen's smile vanished the moment he turned outward, replaced by a stern and indifferent expression as usual.

"Workers and shipwrights of the Pulon Marine Bureau! I've worked hard for you in the past six months. I guess I'm very tired from spending every day and every night at work. So today, the king has specially allowed you, as the first special passengers to land on the battleship Age, where to hold a grand banquet at sea! Bring your family and children with you!! Eat and drink for free, get free to eat! Take this qiē as the king's reward, and the reward of the royal city of Puren to you meritorious people! Have fun and have fun! Then after the five-day vacation, continue to work for the Puren King City to the death!! “

"Oooo

The workers in the harbor cheered collectively and chanted the slogan of the Glory Rose of the Puron King. At the same time, they took off their clothes one after another, and directly jumped into the sea naked one by one and swam towards the Times.

Obviously, they can't wait to have a zero-distance and first-time sailing experience with this ship, which represents the beginning of the Age of Discovery.
