Avalon, Privy Council

The enclosed conference room was filled with the pungent smell of cigarette rolls burning. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The blue-gray smoke wafted through the air, stinging people's eyes.

A hill has been piled up in a few ashtrays, and the ministers who used to be well-dressed are now unkempt, and they don't know how many days they haven't showered.

Everyone stared silently at the charts hanging on the wall, and the staff officers sent by the military headquarters were explaining:

"Since four o'clock this morning, the observers of the observatory have sent reports that the Asgardians have begun to prepare for war. After six hours of preparation, at 10:30 a.m., they began to march towards Anglo's territorial waters.

After Gungnir's attack on Avalon, His Majesty was unable to be distracted by the security of his homeland.

Having lost our native superiority, they no longer intend to continue their entanglement in the northern seas.

According to our observations, the Asgardians divided the fleet into three formations according to the performance of the hull, the first of which is highly maneuverable, has now departed from the sea fortress, and it is supposed to be all equipped with variable musicians who specialize in fluid elements, and under the continuous propulsion and operation, the speed of the ships is far beyond our expectations.

According to the analysis of the military staff, their task should be to get beyond our defenses and hinder our supplies.

And after completing the task, they will begin to carry out guerrilla attacks and harassment against our side at sea and blockade the sea area.

The second formation was a defensive warship loaded with a large number of warship shields and aether co-laws, and they guarded the sea fortress, and under the leadership of the sea fortress, they marched straight towards Avalon.

And the final third mixed formation, carrying more than half of the warships of the original fleet, broke away from the formation of the sea fortress and began to sail south......"

"Start the war on three fronts at the same time......"

The ministers smoked their cigarettes vigorously, and their faces became ugly.

The Asgardians hit the weakness of the Royal Fleet.

After the Battle of Leviathan, the badly damaged Royal Fleet was thrown into a new war without a buffer period, and although the establishment still existed, at its worst, more than half of its personnel had been reduced.

Today's fleet is still not filled, and many warships are directly converted from merchant ships.

If you fight in a group, you can still fight, but once you divide your troops...... Then it's simply going to send warmth to the Asgardians.

Even if the Asgardian fleet has a large number of merchant ships converted into warships, but it was Asgard that formulated the maritime convention before, and the bastard merchant ships were directly built according to the specifications of the warships before they appeared, as long as they were slightly modified, plus a few aether cannons and co-laws, they were ready-made small warships.

"Three formations ......"

Ye Qingxuan pondered silently, raised his head and asked a rather layman's question: "Which side is more threatening?"

The expression of the newly appointed Minister of the Navy was suddenly a little helpless, he opened his mouth to explain the truth to Ye Qingxuan, but soon, he understood what Ye Qingxuan meant.

Now the focus is not at all on the purpose and configuration of the fleet on which side, but on the fastest way to solve the trouble. Therefore, it is the easiest way to think directly about the worst consequences that can be caused by three formations.

"Third formation. ”

The Admiralty Minister did not hesitate.

"At the end of the day, speed. The staff officer gave a detailed explanation: "The first formation is all light and small warships, although they are the fastest and can penetrate our defenses, but they themselves cannot do more serious damage in a short time except for harassment.

And the second formation, although equipped with a large number of heavy guns, the frigates that they were incorporated into the sea fortress were the most destructive, and on the contrary, the slowest, and even if we did nothing, it would take four days to get from their position to Avalon.

The most tricky thing was the third formation, without the speed of the sea fortresses, they were equivalent to an independent fleet, and guessing from the route of travel, they would pass through the territorial waters of the Burgundians, sail along another course, make a large circle, and attack Avalon from the flank. And in the course of the voyage...... It will pass through four industrial cities and granaries in our country, and more than six important ports......

If the task of the first formation is to harass, and the task of the second formation is to fight head-on, the task of the third formation is to sabotage. ”

Even if it was expected, but when it was said so bluntly, everyone's faces turned a little green.

Imagine facing an incoming enemy, with an elite fleet hovering next to and behind you, fully organized and armed to the teeth, staring at your hinterland......

Ye Qingxuan snuffed out the cigarette in his hand.

"I understand the specific situation. ”

He said lightly: "The first formation doesn't need to be managed, we will strengthen the port alert and sabotage them." They don't have much time anyway.

The Navy just needs to solve the problems of the second and third formations. Later, I will ask His Majesty to grant the first royal fleet the awakening authorization, and after the maintenance of the Nomad Mountain is completed, I will return to the frontal battlefield, and I will solve the problem of the sea fortress.

The rest, it's up to you. ”

The Minister of the Navy looked at Ye Qingxuan in astonishment: "What do you mean...... A quick fix?"

"Seven days. ”

Ye Qingxuan estimated a number: "This time, I'm afraid both sides have already realized it...... This war cannot be protracted and dragged on, and it must be done in a neat and untimely manner.

If I'm not mistaken, in seven days, I'm afraid it will be over. ”

He paused, looked at everyone's stunned expressions, and said lightly, "In other words, either we will completely annihilate the Asgardian fleet, or ...... Avalon was burned to ashes by the Asgardians.

There is no third result. ”

Half an hour later, Ye Qingxuan walked out of the closed conference room, took the coat from Lola's hand, draped it on his body, and strode out of the Privy Council.

"Where do you go next?"

"Your Majesty. ”

Ye Qingxuan waved his hand and ordered: "You go and contact Shi Stone, let that guy speed up the preparation of the Nomadic Mountain, I will leave the port before six o'clock tomorrow, and there is ......"

He paused, and his expression became resolute: "Whatever the method, contact Watson and tell him that I will give him five more days at most."

Five days later, if he hadn't succeeded, Anglo probably wouldn't have existed. ”

"By tomorrow morning?"

In the workshop, Stone took off his goggles and sighed helplessly: "The so-called boss is a creature, in fact, after tasting the sweetness of squeezing once, he will become less and less regarded as a human being, right?"

As he spoke, he looked to his side: "Patriarch, can this thing be packed before tomorrow morning?"

Beside him, a middle-aged man who was so burly that he didn't look like a priest stared at the behemoth beyond the hanging ladder, and thought for a moment in the roar: "Yes." ”

Nothing else was mentioned other than those two words.

Words are like gold.

"Do you hear that? ”

Stone waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to stand down, and finally, turning his head to look up at the heavy steel creature that had been pulled from the ground by the hanging tower. Countless cables hang from each of these connectors, like a quirky jellyfish.

And on the cracked top deck of the Nomad Mountain, a huge area has been cleared, and dozens of musicians are prostrate on it, combing through the alchemy matrix in full swing, opening new slots and gaps for the upcoming equipment.

"It's just that this thing is really big. ”

Stone stared at the huge armament on top of the hanging tower, and sighed softly: "I really can't imagine, Your Excellency the Imam, is the power really as exaggerated as you say?"

It's a bit presumptuous to dismantle the 'Merger' without any testing and use this instead of the main gun......"

"If there is an ethernet to support it, there is no problem. ”

The Imam's voice did not fluctuate, "Bishop Stone don't worry, this is the weapon of war that we have restored according to records from before the Dark Ages, and the most suitable weapon for the Nomad Mountain. ”

Stone smiled: "Now I still remember that I can be regarded as a bishop, I'm afraid the only one is Mr. Imam." ”

The Imam didn't speak, just looked up in silence, staring at the massive armament overhead.

A weapon forged of steel, with a core of lapis gold, crafted of countless precious materials and alloys, named after the pagan god of fire.

-- Hezhestus.
