The city of Skarna is still icy and snowy.

The news brought by Noah shocked Ainsey, the original naval strength of the Alchemy Country was comparable to the naval strength of Shenlong Island, although the princess fleet took away forty capital warships, which is equivalent to one-third of the naval strength of the Alchemy Country, but the remaining warships of the Alchemy Country, relying on the harbor, are enough to deal with the fleet of Shenlong Island that is pouring out. However, if the seventy warships of the Sixth War Zone were to encircle the warships of Shenlong Island from east to west, the fleet of Zhan Xini Harbor, which knew nothing, would really be doomed.

For the first time in many years, the city of Skarna sounded the alarm of war. Ainsey immediately summoned the civil and military ministers of the Alchemy Kingdom to convene an emergency military meeting, hoping to resolve the crisis.

At the meeting, there was a fierce quarrel over whether Zhan Xini's warships should leave the port or guard the harbor. The argument of the side advocating the departure of warships from the port is that even if the harbor is destroyed, the main fleet of the Alchemy Kingdom can still preserve its strength, and if it does not leave the port, it may destroy the fleet and the harbor at the same time, whichever is the lesser of two evils; The reason for advocating that the battleships guard the harbor is that when the battleships leave the harbor, the enemy is prepared, and it is impossible not to send people to reconnoiter the movements of the Alchemy Kingdom warships and leave the port easily, the enemy is likely to destroy the fleet first, and then occupy the harbor in turn, and now it is the southern monsoon, and the Alchemy Country fleet that has lost the harbor is impossible to cause much trauma to the enemy at all, and even many warships may be captured, which is simply the enemy, so it is better to burn the jade than let Shenlong Island and the Sixth War Zone succeed easily.

Ainsai himself couldn't make up his mind, and watched the courtiers arguing and hesitating. The Alchemy Kingdom has not been at war for many years, and although the war preparations have not been wasted, Ainsai has rarely asked about military matters because of his health! Now these headaches are in front of him, making it difficult for him to decide. At this time, he was the presence of Nicole, a powerful princess, she must have her own opinions, and she can overcome public opinion and help the Alchemy Kingdom resolve the crisis!

"Your Majesty, Count Higg, the revival city lord of the Erathia Empire, asks to see you!" The ceremonial officer at the door came to report.

"Please!" Ainsai seemed to have a backbone, and immediately perked up and shouted.

Almost all the important ministers of the Alchemy Kingdom in the conference hall were angry, and they almost all believed that the crisis of the Alchemy Country was caused by Fuxing City, and at this time, Xige, as the Lord of Fuxing City, dared to come to the palace hall of the Alchemy Country, which was simply too deceitful.

"See Your Majesty!" Higg soon entered the main hall, this was the first time he had seen the whole class of the Alchemy Country's court and central officials on such an occasion, in the past, he had met with Ainsey alone, he didn't like this kind of scene in the first place, but now that the situation is in crisis, he must stand up and stabilize the morale of the army.

"You've come just in time!" Ainsey said with a smile, "I can't imagine that when my alchemy country was in danger, you not only sent General Noah to send intelligence, but also personally came to help this king, this king is so happy!" ”

Higg said: "Your Majesty's protection of Fuxing City is obvious to the whole world, since Your Majesty was willing to advance and retreat with Fuxing City, now there are small people who want to be detrimental to the Alchemy Country, as an ally, how can I ignore it?" ”

"You don't have to be a fool!" Arahand, the head of the military department, stood up and said, "If it weren't for you Fuxing City to lure wolves into the room, how could my alchemy country be in danger today!" Brought in all the wolves, why did you come here with hypocrisy, don't you think it's enough to harm my alchemy country? ”

"That's a good point!" Divara, the prime minister of the Alchemy Country, also stood up and said, "Although Lord Earl is warm-hearted, I don't need others to point fingers at my own internal and military affairs of the Alchemy Country!" The crisis of the Alchemy Country is naturally solved by the Alchemy Country itself, whether it is life or death, survival or death, and it has nothing to do with Lord Earl! ”

"Shut up, cough cough!" Einsey said angrily, "The Earl is an outsider? Says who? Not to mention the alliance, just say that the righteous daughter Princess Lan Xian'er recognized by the queen is his wife, and the earl is the colt of the Alchemy Country, is the colt an outsider? The reason why my Alchemy Country has made great economic progress in the past few years is not only because of the business exchanges with Fuxing City, but also the sleds and skis they offered, this alone has solved the livelihood problem of how many people, and what have you done for the Alchemy Country, the leaders of the Alchemy Country who are in the temple? When encountering things, except for arguing in the court, I didn't have any opinions at all for a long time, and it was not an exaggeration to say that although your corpse vegetarian meal was a little ugly...... Ahem, ahem! ”

Ainsey's anger made everyone in the court want to stop talking, and no one dared to speak up anymore.

"Your Majesty is angry!" Higg hurriedly said, "Since you have any objections to me, you might as well say it, and please don't stop Your Majesty, please speak freely!" Since you said that I lured the wolf into the room, please also make it clear how I and Fuxing City led the wolf into the alchemy country? ”

Arrahan raised his eyes to look at Ainsei, and saw that he did not speak, so he said: "My Alchemy Country has not had any major wars for hundreds of years, since the Earl Earl took the warship from the Alchemy Country Concession, he slowly dragged the Alchemy Kingdom into the war quagmire of Aracya, until it was tied to the safety of Fuxing City, angering Arad's Sixth Theater Fleet, which led to today's disaster!" Lord Earl, do you dare to say that it wasn't you and your Fuxing City that lured the wolf into the house? ”

"Lord Arahan, although I am the one behind the scenes, I am the one behind the scenes, but it is done in the name of Daniel, the son of the Holy Maiden of the Mizusawa Country, the various forces of Erathia, the various forces of the countries of the world in Middle-earth, including the Alchemy Country and Shenlong Island, at that time, everyone knew that this was a fleet independent of all the forces in Middle-earth, just to escort the trade routes of Fuxing City!" Higg smiled, "Hehe, the Revival Fleet has indeed been doing this all along, and it hasn't caused any trouble to the Alchemy Country, otherwise you would have raised doubts in the first place!" The Alchemy Kingdom has made a lot of money in Fuxing City, and everyone, including all of you here, has more or less dealings with the business of Fuxing City! When you made money at the beginning, you didn't say anything, and the collective silence was equivalent to acquiescing in the reasonable existence of the Revival Fleet, and supporting this fleet to escort your merchant ships, and now because the Alchemy Country was attacked by Shenlong Island and the Sixth War Zone, you are in a hurry to jump out and clear your responsibilities and pour all the dirty water on Fuxing City and the Fuxing Fleet, don't you think it's funny? As everyone knows, Shenlong Island and the Alchemy Country have always been in a state of war, without the existence of my Fuxing City, Shenlong Island would not covet Zhanxini Port and the fleet of the Alchemy Country? Shenlong Island has been secretly supporting the Arad camp for many years, which is also a well-known thing, and why they did this, I think it is self-evident! I dare say that without the existence of the revival fleet, Catherine's fleet would have been wiped out by Arad's Sixth Theater of Operations under the support of Shenlong Island! Hehe, without the restrictions of the Revival Fleet and Catherine's Fleet on the Sixth War Zone, as early as a few years ago, Shenlong Island had already united with the Sixth War Zone to exterminate the fleet of the Alchemy Country, why use it today? ”

"That being said!" Prime Minister Devara said, "But if there is no security binding for Fuxing City, the Alchemy Kingdom will not send forty warships to the waters of Alasia to help, and if it does not lose this one-third of its sea power, the Alchemy Kingdom may not be afraid of the combined fleet of Shenlong Island and the Sixth War Zone!" ”

Hig turned to Divara and said, "Hehe, Prime Minister, you have to make it clear that I didn't force anyone to help Fuxing City, it was His Majesty who didn't want to see the Alchemy Kingdom's interests in Fuxing City suffered, and voluntarily declared war on Arad!" I think that when His Majesty sent the princess fleet to the sea area of Aracya, everyone here was secretly happy when they saw that their interests were protected by the state! Why, does what the Alchemy Kingdom has done itself need to be held responsible by me Fuxing City? If the Prime Minister had to say that I instigated His Majesty or the princess to protect Fuxing City, then I don't think His Majesty and Princess Nicole themselves would admit it, if so, then the Alchemy Country is still an independent country, and you have become the puppets of my Fuxing City! ”

Devara said angrily, "Anyway, now the combined fleet of Shenlong Island and the Sixth War Zone is heading towards the Alchemy Country, and it is always related to your Fuxing City, right?" Lord Earl, even if you are clever in your words, you will not escape this layer of stake! ”

"I admit this, the Sixth War Zone was indeed stimulated by Fuxing City to unite with the forces of Shenlong Island to hunt in the Alchemy Country, but that is just an inducement, not the main reason, in the final analysis, it is the thousands of years of hostile grievances between Shenlong Island and the Alchemy Country that will make the Sixth War Zone feel that there is an opportunity!" Higg said, "So, this little crisis, the war relationship between Shenlong Island and the Alchemy Country is the key, with or without Fuxing City, this crisis will definitely come, but if you want to use Fuxing City as a scapegoat for you to vent, I'm not very happy!" Since I have an inseparable relationship with Fuxing City, I not only sent someone to inform the news in advance, but also came to help in person, which is my intention to abide by the covenant, if you don't appreciate it, then I can't do anything! However, I want to remind you that the court of the Alchemy Country is not yet the turn of the Prime Minister and the head of the military department, right? ”

"Hehe, you're scolding this king for being a faint king, aren't you?" Ainsey smiled coldly, "Regarding the relationship policy of Fuxing City, this king and you have been debated by the court, and you didn't have too many doubts at that time!" It is to send the princess fleet to the waters of the Alasia Empire, to deter Arad's sixth war zone, and to safeguard the commercial interests of the Alchemy Country, you are also strongly in favor, you are now arguing about the right and wrong of the resolution at that time, it seems that these dirty water will be broken to Fuxing City, but in fact, it is poured on this king, embarrassing this king...... Ahem, ahem! ”

"Your Majesty, we definitely don't mean this, how dare we be disrespectful to Your Majesty!" All the ministers and generals in the Manchu court immediately knelt down and said tremblingly.

"It's best if you don't have that!" Ainsai stood up and said angrily, "Now that the great enemy is present, you are arguing endlessly in the court without results, and you have shirked your responsibilities cleanly, which is simply a shame for the court of my alchemy country!" It seems that there has been no war for many years, so you have developed a problem with grinding your mouth! The decision on the relationship between Fuxing City was personally formulated and approved by this king, and whoever dares to discuss the rights and wrongs of Fuxing City is insulting this king as a faint king! ”

Seeing that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were no longer noisy, Ainsai said calmly: "Donkey, I haven't experienced a war in the Alchemy Kingdom for many years, if Nicole was there, this king could still rely on her to preside over this war, since the princess is not at the moment, this king wants you to temporarily take the position of commander-in-chief before the war, I hope the horse will not shirk!" ”

Everyone was shocked, including Higg, no one would have thought that Ainsey would issue such an appointment, in the eyes of many people, it was really stupid.
