Chapter 187: Macallon's Sigh
Royal Naval College
"Has it been confirmed that this is true news?" Mecarron, who was slumped on the couch, asked softly, her old face filled with deep weakness.
The telegram from the front just now made him deeply disappointed, such a powerful deep sea was lost to a fledgling rookie Admiral. He had expected such a situation before making these choices, but he didn't expect it to happen, and it became the straw that broke the camel's back, shattering his dream completely.
"Yes," Scar nodded slightly, although he didn't want to believe the battle on the telegram, but it was the truth, a loss is a loss, and no matter how anything can change the set outcome. "The battle reports from the front line did say so, and it was the ...... who won the battle in the end Gather prayers, the new Admiral. ”
"Gather prayers, gather prayers!" Mercaren let out a cold snort, the hand holding the teacup turned white with exertion, and then slowly let go of it weakly, and sighed deeply. "What Cecicar said is not wrong, he did not win, he did not win at all."
"So what should the principal do now? Do you give up or give it up? "There are only two options now, but due to the presence of the deep-sea battleship Kaga, the latter is not necessarily without the possibility of victory. After all, the other side is an extremely powerful deep sea, and if the fleet of Jiqi is seriously damaged, they have a great chance of victory.
"I know you don't think we've completely lost control of the situation right now," Mecarron said, standing up and putting down the bone china teacup in his hand. "But the truth is that we've already lost and giving up is the best option right now, although I don't know if I'll be able to make it to the next chance." Speaking of this, he smiled weakly and bitterly.
Naturally, the person who drank the poison was slowly eroded by the demons all the time, and although he now had the youthful power he coveted, it was all obtained by burning his life. In other words, after that, Macallon's life would be drastically shortened, and even he could clearly feel the approach of death's footsteps and smell the breath of death on it.
He was no exception to not being able to escape death, but it wasn't the moment he wanted.
"But don't we still have the support of the deep sea? The battleship Kaga was also on our side. Scar retorted loudly, not at all in his opinion.
"Scar, you're still too young." Mercaron sighed and shook his head, "What we have in our hands now is only those nobles, and the real force is still in the hands of Jiqi." The nobles only accepted our bribes and promised us to restrain the admirals of their respective families so that they would not go to the front line for reinforcements, but did not promise us to fight the fleet of Jiqi. ”
"Is there any difference between the two? It's all the same nature! "Scar didn't understand, since they had already disobeyed the orders of the Governor's Palace, why couldn't they just turn their faces?
"No, there is a fundamental difference between the two." Mecarron shook his head, "The former Governor's Mansion can only be regarded as disobeying orders, and the latter is a naked rebellion, for rebels, every superior has never been soft since ancient times, and for those who disobey orders, as long as there are enough people, the Governor's Mansion cannot severely punish them one by one, after all, the law does not hold the people accountable." Moreover, the major families knew very well in their hearts that if the whole world became a deep sea world, they would have no way to escape. So for the sake of the immediate great benefit, they can pretend to be deaf and dumb, but they will never take up arms and point their guns at humans, which is tantamount to self-inflicted consequences, so when you force them to do so, they will even bite back and turn their guns at us. ”
"But even without their support, wouldn't we still have the deep-sea battleship Kaga? She can help us deal with Jiqi. ”
"This situation is based on the fact that the Jiqi fleet has been severely damaged, if this battle is nothing to him, and he is not even injured in the bones, do you think a Kaga has any chance of winning?" Mercaren asked softly, although he now believed that the delusional fleet of the deep sea must have dealt a heavy blow to Jiqi, they still had a little hope.
This is the territory of the Royal Naval Academy, the Governor's Palace, and no matter how weak the government is now, it is still a sick lion, and as soon as the avant-garde comes, this lion will stand up and roar hard.
The reason why the Governor's Mansion was able to govern all the nobles in the first place was because of the avant-garde existence of the Iron Lady, who acted like thunder and showed no mercy, even so, she still had many supporters, and the number was not a few.
So once you choose to fight hard, nine times out of ten it is not the Jiqi that loses, but them. At that time, there was really no hope at all.
"And the battleship Kaga was not very powerful, just to the extent of Bismarck." Mercaren recalled the evaluation of the girl known as the king of the deep sea, as a battleship but without a large-caliber main gun, so although the strength is strong, it is not much stronger, it is not as powerful as converting into an aircraft carrier.
Therefore, this deep sea is just an ornament to show the sincerity of the other party, and it does not have much substantive significance.
"Just Bismarck's strength?" Hearing this Macallen's evaluation of the deep sea, Scar opened his mouth in a daze, looking depressed.
He thought that the other party and Yamato had the same strength, with powerful firepower and heavy armor that were even better than the strongest ship in history, Yamato, but now it seems that it is only a top-notch combat power, and there is no shortage of such top-notch combat power in Jiqi's fleet.
Indeed, as the principal said, the only option now is to give up and wait for the next opportunity. After all, the king of the deep sea has not made a move from beginning to end, although she doesn't know the other party's combat ability, but she can become the king of all the deep sea, her strength is undoubted, and it is definitely beyond her imagination.
"Yes, she is just a manifestation of the other party's sincerity, and she does not play a decisive role in the current situation." Macallen stood, his straight back stretched on the ground. "Perhaps, as Cecicar said before he died, I really have no chance of success, never from beginning to end."
"The headmaster is just a small accident this time, it doesn't mean that we have failed, at least we still have a chance now, and we can still negotiate with that king." Scar remains confident about the future, believing that Mercarron's dream will come true one day.
"That king has the majesty and strength of a king, but he does not have the ambition of a king." Mercaren looked down and sighed as she recalled the scene when she met the girl. In the eyes of the other party, he only saw laziness and curiosity, as if the whole world was just a plaything for her to be amused, and he had no idea of conquering the whole world at all.
On the contrary, what made her more interested was those boring game CDs and comics, which were no different from human otakus, and could not be called a king of the deep sea at all. Counting on that otaku queen is probably really no chance, Mercaren sighed in her heart.
"So, the only chance we have hope for is this one time, and the rest of the chances of success are very slim." He looked up at the sea in the distance of the academy and slowly closed his eyes, letting out a desperate sigh from the bottom of his heart.
Theodore, it won't be long before I'll be with you, I really ...... It's almost the limit. He clenched his fists and whispered in his heart.
