Chapter 372: Reconsideration (Part II)

The next day, at dawn, the ten defenders of the city of Apus saw the swords and thieves, and the splendid carriages came towards the gate of the city. Because the gates of the city have just been opened. Therefore, there are not many people in and out of the city, which makes those carriages particularly conspicuous.

"Who are these people?" and saw the beggars marching into the city one by one, and the soldier asked.

The veteran, who knew something inside, looked at them and said slowly, "Don't you know what happened a few days ago?"

Seeing that the others still had inexplicable expressions, he suddenly sighed: "I mean." Don't you all know about pirates? These carriages all have noble symbols on them, and they come early in the morning, and it is obvious that something big has happened, and besides the matter of pirates, is there anything else that deserves to be visited by adults recently?"

When they heard that this was really the case, the soldiers suddenly became even more curious. "I've heard that pirates have attacked many places along the coast, is that really the case?"

"It's not true, is there any fake? You don't know, last night, how dark was the face of Lord Viscount Edel, my maternal uncle is the second butler of the Viscount's Mansion, I heard that the whole study was smashed, do you say, is it true?" said the veteran who knew the inside story with a disdainful face.

"Oh my God, if there is such a thing, it seems that the county will not be able to make it lively in the future. When the other soldiers heard this, they all shook their heads and sighed.

At this time, people began to enter and leave the city gates, and they didn't have time to talk anymore, so they all returned to their posts, their faces still with a trace of worry and inexplicable excitement.

This is the feeling of being inexplicably excited when you hear about it. It's human nature, even if you know it's not a good thing, you still want to understand and talk about it inexplicably.

Immediately after the pirates swept away a large number of people and wealth, word spread that the pirates had plundered the coastal towns.

The people who talked about this the most were naturally those in the city of Aps.

There are several reasons for this, firstly, the city of Aps is far from the coastal area, so it is easy not to be invaded by pirates, and secondly, the defense of this city is very strong, and even if the pirates do attack the city, it is basically delusional to want to enter the city.

Tens of thousands of Warcraft have not succeeded in doing anything. If a bunch of pirates do it, it's a big joke.

The people of the city, down to the common people, to the small nobles and the common rich, were all talking about this matter without worry. They used it as an after-dinner conversation.

The real losers were the great nobles who owned ports and towns along the coast, and the poor tenants who lived there, and had little to do with their stones. It's none of your business, hang high. This situation is a wise saying in any world and any country.

In the open space in front of Viscount Edel's mansion, there were many horse-drawn carriages, and the horses were bowing their heads, or grazing, or flicking their tails to enjoy themselves. And the owners of these carriages were meeting in the mansion at this time.

The meeting room was chosen in the largest luxurious study in the Viscount of Edel's mansion, some of the miscellaneous items in it were leaned aside, a very expensive long table was placed in the center, on either side were a dozen high-end chairs, the floor was covered with a fine red carpet, and there were maids constantly bringing in fruits and refreshments.

Because the things we talked about were a bit depressing and angry, the ongoing meeting was very tense and depressing.

"That's what you mean, Viscount Edel. What should I do?" Baron Shaka sat in the third chair on the right-hand side. He was wearing an unassuming robe, but he had a demeanor. But the nobles in the county can't learn it.

This also secretly made the nobles of Viscount Edel's faction depressed, obviously this smiling guy was only a lord before, and now, he quickly jumped to the position of a baron, and he actually looked like a nobleman than his own people.

It seems that the royal city is the royal city. His Royal Highness, who had been sitting in the middle of the room, was always smiling and watching the discussion without speaking or interjecting.

Because he is very young, so. The nobles present only respected him on the surface, but in fact, they didn't think this person knew anything in their hearts.

Listening to Baron Shaka's question, Viscount Edel coughed lightly, and then said slowly: "This matter, in fact, I and several other adults have discussed it privately, and according to the current situation, it is not necessary to form a navy as soon as possible." No, it doesn't work. So, we agree. Share materials and prepare for the construction of the navy as soon as possible. I'm sure everyone will agree on this, right?" he said, looking at the nobles around him.

Where did these nobles disagree? They still felt awkward in their hearts, and because of the nuisance of pirates, they would still express their attitudes one by one, saying that they were willing to contribute materials to prepare for the construction of this navy.

This is the end of the meeting. The first thing is officially resolved.

There is another thing, which is very important than this matter, and that is to discuss the choice of the commander of the Navy.

At the last meeting, when materials were shared and the commander's candidates were discussed, there was a contradiction, and in the end everyone broke up unhappily. At this time. When this matter was mentioned again, everyone's faces suddenly became uncomfortable again.

"I think it's better for everyone to think again. Seeing that the meeting was at an impasse for a while, Baron Shaka couldn't help but say.

Then, he took a careful look at His Highness on the throne, and was worried that His Highness, who was an earl, would be unhappy.

However, judging from the performance of this earl at this time, his cultivation is really good. Although he knew that all the nobles present were unwilling to hand over the command of the main room to the members of the main room, Yi Fenglan smiled faintly. He didn't look angry, but as for what he thought in his heart, no one knew.

Seeing that he had to keep smiling in front of everyone, Romon who was sitting in second place on the right hand side couldn't help but sigh secretly. It seems that it is not easy to be an earl, it is said that it is difficult for a strong dragon to suppress the head snake, especially in the case of such a complicated situation in the kingdom, an earl with an empty shelf, although the status is noble. Just the surface. What's wrong with the Earl? I respect you on the surface, but I really can't let it go when it comes to my own interests.

"Well, I agree with Baron Shaka, let's discuss it again, this kind of thing is not a moment, maybe. If you want to last for a long time, you must choose someone who everyone knows and agrees with. Lord Earl. What do you think?" Viscount Edel said the previous words, and looked at the Count on the main seat with some deep meaning.

The earl, who had always maintained a noble smile, frowned slightly when he heard this, although he quickly let go. However, if you pay attention, you can still notice a few slight movements of the fingers of his right hand. And all this, no one else noticed, and it was all seen by Luo Meng on the side.

It turns out that he is not good-tempered, but also enduring.

Romon thought in his heart, and also sympathized with the earl, he could be pressed like this by the head snake of the ground, but there was no reason to be angry. It's really aggrieved.

"Well, it depends on what you think, and I respect your choice!" said the Earl, smiling.

At this time, the nobles are still reluctant to hand over their fate to the royal family, because everyone knows that the royal family, which already has a righteous name, once it gains the advantage of sharp power, it will be a harsher situation for all nobles.

However, apart from the Wang Navy, who will solve this matter?

Somewhat seven, the count also thanks to the pirates.

Facing Viscount Edel's questioning. The count chose to back down.

It is impossible for the local nobles to let a member of the royal family directly serve as the commander of the crusade against pirates, since this is the case, then wait for the next blow and cry and beg me!

Thinking of this, Xiu Senya's mood calmed down.

can be suppressed by a Viscount Edel like this, Xiu Senya is really unhappy.

Don't look at the gentle smile on his face at this time, he has already turned the other party into seventy or eighty paragraphs in his heart.

Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but turn to the right side, the nobles on this side are all nobles who are not close to the viscount faction and even have some contradictions, with these strengths, next time, he will be on the throne as a matter of course, right?

Thinking of this, this Xiu Senya. The concubine had a genuine smile on her face.

However, the debate is getting more and more intense.

Dealing with the fleet governor who entrusted his life to his family, this candidate, even the nobles did not dare to get a person who was indiscriminate.

How's Bunkis?"

"The last time he dealt with a small pirate, he was beaten back in embarrassment, how can he deal with the guy who has swept the nearby seas, and can almost be called the king of pirates? How can our fleet be handed over to him?"

How's Shaws?"

"Too young, no merit at all, I'm afraid that I can't suppress it, but the people at sea are very rebellious!" Speaking of this, the nobles were very understanding, fifteen years, the dissolution of the command of Shakat, as a result, the fleet immediately fell apart, so that the nobles suffered a great loss, realizing that the land and the sea are different.

At sea, you can't pick peaches casually, and the authority of the nobility can't extend to the deck, so you can't control it at all.

However, it is really a bit of a delay to continue arguing like this, and I have already seen a suitable candidate, who is also in line with what you just said about the local nobles, familiar with the coastal situation, and able to fight for good battles, and I believe that everyone will be able to agree that he will be the commander-in-chief of the navy. He is Romon, lord of the Tertashaw Lord. At this moment, a nobleman suddenly spoke. His eyes fell on Romon who was sitting on the side.

After hearing this, the others also focused their eyes on Luo Meng's guide.

And Baron Rocas, who had long foreseen that this would happen, began to sigh in his heart again. This kid is really lucky.

After all, now it is necessary to choose a naval governor, and in the case that the earl must not be chosen, and the viscount's locals cannot come up with a suitable candidate, Romon who already has eight ships is undoubtedly the only choice, after all, he is still a nobleman and not a real royal faction.

Romon naturally shirked in every possible way. However, under the smiling gaze of this highness, the back of his spine suddenly cooled.

The nobles of the viscount faction on the side. At this time, it seems to be understood, in such a situation, let Rimon come as the commander of the crusade against the thief army. It was the only thing that could make everyone happy, so they all agreed to it.

Well, if you all support me, I'm going to take this position. At this time, Romon had no other way but to agree. He shrugged over and also experienced it, and was "added to the yellow robe." feeling, but even so. He didn't say yes either, his gaze swept over everyone, and now it was time for all the nobles to bargain.

After all, I, Romon, took out eight boats. If you don't want to bleed, you can't.
