Chapter 863: Shadow Descends (I)
City Lord's Mansion: "Is the coalition army really wiped out?"
Nick, who rushed over to report the news, nodded and said, "Madam, the source of the news is absolutely reliable. This news came from a member of our own trade union before, and before it was reported, it was affirmed by many parties, and I think there should be no problem. ”
While some of the Druids who left the school and started traveling around were not in the union, they did pass on the message.
The kingdoms along the coast of the coalition also have their people.
"Since they found out that the headquarters of the coalition forces had withdrawn to the kingdom of Obi and were now staying in the city of Ibbi, our druids began to verify the news in many ways, and they also encountered a small fleet transporting supplies, and they also brought the same news, and after checking it, they reported the news to the union. ”
"Although the headquarters has not publicly admitted it, I think this news should not be fake. Seeing that Eleni's expression was still hard to believe, Nick sighed softly and said, "Actually, not only Madame, you find it hard to believe this fact, even me, I also think this matter is too ridiculous. "But the facts are the facts, and the human alliance has really been wiped out. I think there's a follow-up message coming soon!" "It's shocking. With a soft exhale, Eleni muttered.
It was really hard for her to convince herself of the fact that according to her previous estimates, even if this war was to the end, the elven side would resist desperately, and only one would remain to continue the voyage. Even if the elves win, the elves will be greatly discouraged.
Moreover, until the news of the total destruction of the coalition forces came, people had been hearing about the victory.
Either there is a small victory today or a big victory tomorrow, and when you hear too much news of the victory, people will naturally think that the human side will definitely achieve a final victory. At this time, someone said to them: The human alliance has been completely destroyed!
It's really hard to believe this news!
"All perish...... Does that mean that the Fifth Fleet led by our Church, as well as the Third and Fourth Fleets under the command of His Highness Husenya, have all perished?" Soon Eleni thought of the question, and she tried to calm her mind as she continued to ask. “...... Theoretically, yes!" Seeing a look of pain on Eleni's face, Nick's voice became smaller and smaller.
"Fifth Fleet...... Alas!" The thought of the Church Commander, the fleet of whom her husband had worked so hard and the many of the people of Tertacho, had perished, made Eleni's mood ache at once.
Also, countless church colleagues may never be seen again.
"Alas, since the matter has been born, we have to face the reality, about the life and death of His Royal Highness Xiu Senya, we must confirm it as soon as possible, this matter, or go through the union to investigate, remember, don't startle the snake, I hope to get an accurate news as soon as possible. ”
If the demise of the Fifth Fleet made Alini feel heartache.
The uncertainty of the fate of His Royal Highness Nashu Senya made her feel a kind of political tension.
No matter from which point of view, the Tertashaw Leader belongs to the faction of His Royal Highness Xiu Senya, although there are some gaps inside, but outsiders do see it this way.
If His Royal Highness Xiu Senya really died in this war, then he would have to think carefully about his attitude towards the royal family.
"Please rest assured, Mrs. Hui, I have already asked people to pay close attention to this matter, and I will report to Mrs. immediately if there is any news. Nick said quickly, glad to see Elean calm down.
"If the coalition forces fail and the navy is all gone, then all the areas along the ripples will be exposed to the edge of the elves, and our trade will also collapse, you must be prepared for this. Eleanne spun around and said.
By now, she had completely calmed down, she returned to her desk, began to write, and soon wrote a letter about the news she had received.
"Send this letter to the princess's mansion. ”
"I understand, I will personally deliver it to the princess's mansion. Nick nodded in understanding, although the princess knew the news, not necessarily slower than them, but this was a political attitude.
"Also, by my order, all the officials in the realm and above shall assemble in the conference hall of the government building in an hour, and I will hold a general meeting.
"Yes, ma'am!" Nick replied, turning and going out.
In a moment, the order was laid down.
"What the hell is going on?"
"I don't know, you know?
"I don't know, I'll ask Nick-sama later!"
"Well, that's all it can be. ”
"Look, Lord Nick and Lord Fafer have also arrived, and it seems that something really big has happened.
After a group of officials walked into the hall, there was a lot of discussion. At this time, Nick and Fabblea walked in side by side from outside. "Nick, do you know what's going on?" After sitting down, Fafer turned his head and asked Nick on the side.
"I know, but it's almost time now, look, Lady Eleni is here, let's just hear what she has to say!" Nick was busy, he was still racing against the clock to get the instructions, and when he heard it, he said with a smile.
Sure enough, with a serious expression, Eleni walked in from outside.
The table used for the meeting was a long conference table, and all the people sitting on one side were from the internal affairs system, and the people from the military system were sitting on the side, and Nick and Fafer were very close to each other, in the position of left and right hand. Originally, it was Romone's position, but now that Rosso was not there, Elenie naturally sat in the position. "Now, I would like to announce one thing, this umbrella matter, very serious, please all of you after listening to it, express your own opinion. Eleni said after she sat down in that position. Immediately, everyone pricked up their ears to hear what Eleni had to say. "Just a few days ago, there was a great event on the sea, a great event, I think, you may not imagine, that is, the human alliance has been wiped out...... "What?" "Ma'am, is your message correct?" said Lu Lun, who was old and a lord again, as he stood up and asked. "I've got information from many sources, and it's basically true. "Ahh The news was shocking. "Ladies and gentlemen, we don't have to think about the truth of the matter now, the key is, how should we deal with such a situation...... Mr. Lu Lun, you can talk about it first. ”
"Yes, I think, first of all, the direct impact is the collapse of coastal trade, at least the military orders to us, there is no more, I think it is necessary to report this news quickly and stop the production of the relevant parties. Lu Lun replied directly without thinking: "Also, we have to deal with a series of changes after the collapse of maritime trade, and deal with the cold current of the economy!" "What Mr. Lu Lun said is not wrong, the internal affairs system should also strengthen the response and carry out some necessary measures for the workers crowded into the city. "I think martial law is the first thing!" said Fafer simply.
The meeting suddenly became busy, and the meeting between Alini and the officials lasted for a long time.
From the morning to noon, everyone chose to eat in the conference hall, that is, they did not leave, after the meal, there were refreshments, and everyone continued to discuss the problem just now.
At this time, a mage walked in from the outside and handed an unopened magic letter to Eleni. Usually in the form of magic letters, it is extremely important news.
After unfolding the letter and reading it only once, Alie's face instantly became ugly.
"I just got a piece of news that an island country not far from our territory, the Delanya Kingdom, has appeared in a coalition of pirates and elves, and their next target will definitely be the Delanya Kingdom. If the kingdom of Delanya is breached, it will directly threaten our nearby territories, and we will have to fight urgently!" "Boom!" The entire conference hall is about to explode.
"The kingdom of Delanya is only a few hundred nautical miles away from us, once it falls, the threat to us is already quite great, we must immediately form a navy!" "The Fifth Fleet has all been dispatched, how can there be a navy now?" "There are still three more ...... in the shipyard Your lord is really wise!" This news is not a secret, and many people know about it and immediately remember it. "That's right, I order, the three warships will leave the factory immediately, and the governor of Shakat will take responsibility immediately. Eleni ordered urgently. "Madam, don't worry, I can build a navy in three days, but three warships are not enough at all!" "I ordered the shipyard to speed up construction immediately, and the navy should not be too far away, and should cross with the mage tower. Aliene commanded unequivocally. "Yes!" replied the Governor of Shakat immediately.
"Fafer, Sukar, Haivawi, Shabid, Wavik, Owenna, as the representatives of the knights of the realm, immediately gather the knights, the city defense army, and even the militia, and enter the state of alert. "Yes!" the knights responded awe-inspiringly, and now was the time when the territory was in danger. Also, the church and the kingdom must be notified. "It's not necessary, but it's a necessary political attitude. “...... What about the druids?" someone asked. The meeting was settled, and without Romon and the druids were not enough. After a while, Elean smiled reluctantly and said, "I'll negotiate with them, and there should be some results." Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh, and a longing appeared in her heart.
Where the hell are you, Romon?!
