Chapter Seventy-Five: Zagu's Hole Cards (Part II)

Qi Daoxue's face changed slightly, although he didn't know exactly what Yun Yi had judged from it, but the unreserved trust that his inner world had established in Yun Yi for a long time made him immediately call his adjutant and immediately use the highest priority authority to pass through the secret line and forward Yun Yi's words just now to the rebel fleet.

Then, he asked Yun Yi why he did this.

"In Iseras, only officers, especially those with troops, are the most powerful. The rest of the planetary governors, the political departments, and the powerful armies are nothing more than a pile of rotten wood. ”

Yun Yi suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and explained to Qi Daoxue: "The current Isselas, I'm afraid that apart from Douglas, there are probably few other fleet commanders who hope that Zagu can survive. ”

Qi Daoxue was a little puzzled: "Since Douglas is loyal to Zagu, he will definitely protect the rebel fleet and will not let anyone attack it." Moreover, Douglas controlled more than half of the fleet strength of Isseras, and no one dared to offend this military officer easily. ”

"Of course someone would dare to do that."

Yun Yi shook his head: "Cai Hongzhang of the Royal Second Fleet, if I guess correctly, he should be the representative of the Dragon Slaying Society. Iserras now relies entirely on the Dragon Slayer to have the current strength. If the Dragon Slayer Society cuts off its support and only relies on the level within their country, I am afraid that before we send troops, this country will completely collapse from within. ”

"Dragon Slayer will ......" Qi Daoxue read the name, her voice full of coldness.

If Zagu hadn't received the support of the Dragon Slayer Society back then, Zhao Song would not have perished so quickly. It's a pity that the power of the Dragon Slayer Society is too great, and it is far from what Berwick can compete with now. Only after overthrowing Iseras and rebuilding the Zhao and Song empires, and then relying on the power of several generations, could it be possible to pose a threat to that behemoth.

Qi Daoxue is not stupid, Yun Yi said so much, he can also understand.

The two of them raised their heads and looked at the starry sky in the distance, and a faint anxiety appeared in their eyes.

……

Lorraine retracted his gaze on the light brain screen, and said to Gu Yi worriedly: "Old Gu, things are not going well. ”

Gu Yi was arranging for a new warship to tow another Wumu-class battleship, and when he heard Lorraine's voice, he frowned: "Don't worry, there will definitely be warships that will continue to be damaged." But at most two hours we will be able to cross the border, and nothing will be a problem. ”

Lorraine shook her head with a bitter face: "I'm afraid that in two hours, we will still be in the territory of Iseras." ”

Gu Yi walked over at this time, his eyes fell on the screen, and his eyes widened suddenly: "What is this old thing Peng Sen doing, why did he suddenly adjust his formation?" But in an instant, he understood: "Damn, they actually shrunk and shaped, completely enveloping us inside their fleet." ”

"That's not the point......," Lorraine said with an ugly face, "I just calculated that the speed of the Iserras fleet has dropped by twenty percent compared to before. And their speed continues to decline. ”

Gu Yi was shocked: "So, the Iserath side is trying to use this method to force us to slow down?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken," Lorraine said, "...... I'm afraid that's true. ”

Gu Yi walked back and forth in the command room a few times with some anxiety, suddenly stopped, turned around and walked towards the room on the side of the command room. Lorraine glanced at it and hurriedly followed.

"Lord Syrumis."

Guarding the doorway to this area is Syrumith. Originally, the three of Guyi didn't want her to come to this sentry. But before, because the fleet needed Gu Yi and Lorraine to coordinate and arrange, they couldn't relax for a moment, and Hua Yonghao stood here for more than ten hours until Hiluffis came to the command room to find out, and proposed to replace them to stand guard.

With the help of Syrophys, Hua Yonghao got some rest time, and at this time he was sleeping with his head covered.

"Are you about to enter Berwick?"

Hiluffis smiled and looked at the visitor.

Gu Yi shook his head: "Something went wrong. I need to make an inquiry with Zagu. ”

Hiluffis nodded disappointedly and opened the door to the room. After Gu Yi entered the password, the three of them walked in.

This room was originally used as a temporary rest for the captain, and the environment is better than the ordinary crew room, not only the rest room, but also the office, living room and bathroom. However, after dismantling the light brain and other equipment, it became Zagu's prison cell.

When the three of them entered, Zagu was kneeling on the floor doing push-ups. A small puddle of liquid on the ground and Zagu covered in sweat can show that this guy is working his body at this time.

Seeing that someone was coming, Zagu, who was not tall, stood up, took a towel next to him and wiped it on his face, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "I used to be busy every day, but now it's okay, and I finally have time to exercise." Unfortunately, after so many years of not exercising, my physical fitness has deteriorated a lot, but I used to be able to do 500 push-ups in a row without breaking a single drop. ”

Although everyone doesn't like Zagu very much, no matter what, the other party is the king of a country, and there should still be etiquette.

After motioning for Zagu to sit down, Gu Yi stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, there are some things I need to ask you about. ”

Zagu waved his hand magnificently: "As long as it doesn't involve my top secret information about Iseras, I can answer you." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your cooperation." Gu Yi nodded and asked, "Then the first question." Why did His Majesty hand over command to Douglas because of his talent, or because of his loyalty? ”

Zagu gave him a deep look, as if pondering why he had asked the question.

After a few seconds, Zagu said lightly: "Of course, loyalty." Do you think that I am a person who is annoying, and almost all the people of the whole country want to eat my flesh and drink my blood, and dare to hand over the country to a guy who is not faithful? Wouldn't I be going to stay in Berwick for the rest of my life? ”

It seems that Zagu is not giving up. Giving the country to Douglas is saving the idea of returning to Isselas in the future. It doesn't matter if Glass is going to send someone to the rescue, or through diplomacy, he will pay some benefits, but at least he still has a chance to go back.

These issues are not what Gu Yi needs to consider at this time.

"Then the second question, how do you judge that Douglas will be absolutely loyal?"

Zagu raised his head and said casually, "Douglas's talent is what I discovered, and gradually promoted him to his current position. In addition, during the last battle with the Lekima Federation, Douglas was captured by the Lekima Federation, although he was later exchanged for him diplomatically. But Douglas lost his confidence for a while, and it was still my unremitting efforts that allowed him to gradually regain his self-confidence. This is the grace of knowing and the grace of saving my life, and in the character of Douglas, he will never betray me. ”

Looking at Zagu with a confident face, Gu Yi shook his head: "What if...... Did Douglas really betray you? ”

"That's absolutely impossible! I believe in my own eyes on people. Zagu's expression did not change in the slightest, but looked at an extremely funny thing, and continued: "Mithras will rebel, the Ross family can also rebel, and even everyone may rebel, but Douglas will not!" ”

"I'll tell you the truth."

Gu Yi didn't plan to waste any more time, and said directly: "Deborah planned to attack our fleet before, but was dissuaded by Peng Sen of the Eighth Fleet sent by Douglas and retreated. It was always Penson who was guarding us. But more than ten minutes ago, we found that the Eighth Fleet had begun to change formation, and it was tightly surrounding us. At the same time, the fleet speed was reduced in order to delay our arrival at Berwick. ”

Gu Yi looked into Zagu's eyes and said word by word: "Penson is a close confidant of Douglas, if it weren't for Douglas's order, do you think he would make such a move?" ”

The smile on Zagu's face froze suddenly.

He stood up abruptly and roared, "This is impossible! Douglas was picked up by me. Anyone can rebel, but he can't! ”

"But that's the case." Gu Yi sighed, from Zagu's reaction, he was keenly aware that even Zagu himself, I am afraid it is difficult to guarantee that Douglas will definitely not rebel.

Zagu gasped for breath, not knowing if it was because of the upheaval in his heart, or because of the fatigue of exercising just now.

Gu Yi also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, if I am not wrong in my judgment. It won't be long before the Eighth Fleet is completely gone. Douglas will never directly order his fleet to fire at us, and when the Eighth Fleet leaves, the fleet disguised as pirates or others will arrive, and their purpose is naturally to kill Your Majesty. And we, just incidentally. ”

Zagu propped his hands on the table, his face cloudy.

After half a ring, he seemed to have figured out something, smiled self-deprecatingly, and sat back in his chair.

"Well, I'll admit I'm a terrible failure. After losing power and throne, there is no one to be trusted. ”

"Now is not the time to complain." Gu Yi said lightly: "We can now say that we can be said to be grasshoppers on a rope, and when that fleet comes, none of us will be able to escape." If Your Majesty still wants to live, please show your sincerity. Otherwise we wouldn't mind using you as a hostage and forcing the Eighth Fleet to stay here. Of course, in that case, it is really possible for the Eighth Fleet to stay, but if the Eighth Fleet does not stay, or if it directly fires at us, everyone will still not be able to escape death. ”

Zagu didn't say a word, but sat there quietly like a stone sculpture.

Gu Yi shook his head and threw out another sentence.

"As far as we know, your Royal Second Fleet has left the New Kaifeng Star more than twenty hours ago. At the speed of that fleet, it would be about five hours at most. ”

This sentence was like a bombshell, and it bombarded Zagu's heart fiercely.

His face turned extremely ugly, and his teeth were gritted fiercely. Suddenly, he raised his arm and slammed his fist into the table.

Zaguhod stood up and stared at Guyi.

"Take me to the command room to communicate with the optical brain."

PS:

There was a bug in front of me. The number of previous fleets, the number of one fleet in the Chutang Empire was fifteen thousand, and that of other countries was ten thousand. But I remembered it wrongly before, and it was written as 20,000 ships of the Chutang Empire and 15,000 ships from other countries. It's hard to change it if you want to change it now, you can understand it this way.

After the end of the war between the Chu and Tang Empires and the New United States that shocked the whole universe, all the materials of the war became the object of research and discussion in other countries. After studying, various countries have found that today, when armaments have increased by a large margin, it seems more reasonable for a fleet to have 15,000 warships. As a result, various countries rushed to follow suit and reformed their fleets one after another, making it an establishment of 15,000 warships as one fleet and 1,500 warships as a sub-fleet.

However, Chu Tang Lin Jiaoyang was a maverick person, and when the restructuring of most countries was completed, he immediately issued an order to reorganize Chu Tang's own fleet, and on the basis of not increasing the fleet, the existing fleet was expanded, so that the scale of each fleet reached 20,000 warships.

In that case, I think it will be able to say that it will be over......
