Chapter 758: Defeat (Part II)

A group of people sat around and were silent, and after a while, Luo Meng spoke: "What do you think are the reasons for the failure of the Third Fleet this time?"

Sitting next to Romon were Fafer, Nikk, Haivawi, Sukar, and Shakat who did not attend the meeting because he was on duty at the Mage Tower.

It has been a week since the fiasco of the Third Fleet, and the eldest prince Hailancha was ordered by the king to return to the royal capital, and it is estimated that the end will not be too comfortable.

The situation at that time, to this day, Luo Meng and the others still clearly remember that at that time, when the once proud Prince Hailancha came back, his face was as pale as earth.

And he once led the Third Fleet. Only one-third of the warships remained, and the other two-thirds of the warships were either sunk by pirates or became trophies of the other side, and as soon as Romon learned of this situation, Romon had a headache.

To be honest, he really didn't think that the prince of Highlancha could take advantage of the decisive battle with the pirates. But he was so badly defeated, but he was also shocked.

That's forty well-armed warships. Each one is worth tens of thousands of gold coins, and it is the family of the royal family, and it was actually ruined by the eldest prince, and almost wiped out the old ace fleet of the Third Fleet, which is the trump card, I really don't want to admire His Royal Highness Hailancha.

"At the very least, Prince Hailancha is more than half responsible. Nick said lightly: "The fatigue of the soldiers is a factor, and in command, it is another factor. ”

"I agree with Nick, this defeat in the battle with the pirates, the Third Fleet failed so badly, I want to say that there is no responsibility of Prince Highlancha. None of them. Fafel agrees.

Romon sighed and said: "Actually, there is not only the problem of improper command of the Third Fleet, these pirates. It is indeed not to be underestimated, it seems that the support of the elves inside is still quite influential. ”

"What should we do now?, as the deputy commander of the Fifth Fleet, little Shakat has no more attention to the matter of naval warfare than him.

No matter what becomes like at sea. It is impossible for the Fifth Fleet to sit idly by, and what to do next, Shakat is very concerned.

"Wait. Romon thought for a moment and said.

"Wait?"

"Yes, wait for Romon to stand up. Walking up and down the conference hall.

"We expelled the pirates last time, and we didn't let them take advantage of them, and they fought another big battle with the Third Fleet before, and although they won, the losses will be great, and they will easily not attack again in a short time

"Say it again. It has nothing to do with us. We are now. Need to wait for news from the royal capital, the eldest prince Hailancha has caused a lot of trouble this time, causing heavy losses to the Third Fleet, the king will definitely not let him lead the Third Fleet again, and the situation of the pirates is so advocated, it is unlikely that the Third Fleet will be transferred back. ”

"The biggest possibility is to change to a new commander. to lead the rest of the Third Fleet and unite our two fleets. Exterminate the pirates again. We just have to wait until the order of the royal capital comes down. ”

"Your Excellency, do you think it is more likely that someone will be appointed as the new commander-in-chief, and who will His Majesty the King send to this position given the current situation in the Third Fleet?"

When he comes, anyone can come, as long as he doesn't send a person with a high status like Prince Hailancha who can't be down-to-earth.

Romon shook his head. said: "What Your Majesty thinks, how will we know, but".

"Perhaps, it will be Prince Husenya, and it is also very possible Romon said looking in the direction of the port.

All of you. Thinking about it, this matter is actually very important for the future eradication of pirates.

"What will my father do?" On the blue earth island, Prince Xiu Senya stood at the window, looking out, a little distracted.

"Maybe, it will," he thought of a possibility, and his hands clenched and jerked. Slowly relieved again. "I hope that my father can know through this incident who is the most suitable person to command the navy."

"Your Highness!"

Just as he was thinking, suddenly an attendant came in and saluted.

"What's the matter?" Prince Husenya asked, turning to look at the chamberlain.

"Your Highness, a messenger has arrived from the king's capital. Now that we have arrived at the port of Blue Earth Island!Lord Puterson asked me to send a letter to His Highness, and he had already rushed to the port to arrange for the chamberlain.

"The envoy of the royal capital? As soon as Prince Husenya heard this, he immediately strode out. After taking a few steps, he stopped again.

"Did Putson mention it, what is it?" asked Prince Husenya.

"Your Highness. I didn't dare to ask. So I hurried over and delivered you a letter. The chamberlain replied cautiously.

"Forget it, prepare a dress for me, and I'll go to the port right away, Prince Husenya said.

"Yes, Your Highness. The chamberlain hurried out and prepared a dress for Prince Husey.

In the bedroom hall, Prince Huxenia let others dress him. He thought about things in secret, thinking about the messenger's arrival this time. What will it bring?

When he was dressed, he immediately got into a carriage and hurried to the port.

In the harbor of Blue Earth Island, a mid-gate knife has just disembarked from the ship. Talking to several officials of the island, a carriage rushed from the island to the port at this time, and several knights protected it before and after.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man immediately stopped talking to the other people and looked over.

"His Highness Husenya. Seeing a young man getting out of the car, the middle-aged man immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Is it you?Viscount Luoning?" Prince Xiu Senya was slightly stunned when he saw this person, and then. I walked over happily and hugged each other.

"It's me, Your Highness, and I'm going to congratulate you this time. The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Oh, what good news have you brought me? Come, get into my carriage, and talk as you go. "Prince Husenya obviously has a good relationship with this envoy, so he directly invited the other party to get into his carriage.

This person was not polite, and with Prince Husenya got into the carriage, and the other entourage was arranged by the officials of the island, and in the carriage, the two people sat opposite each other.

"Your Highness, I haven't seen you for half a year. You're okay. Viscount Luo Ning asked.

"I'm fine, it's just that some time ago, the extermination of pirates failed. Prince Huxenia smiled helplessly.

"Your Highness, needless to say, now in the royal capital aristocratic circle, who doesn't know that the failure of this operation is due to the improper command of His Royal Highness Hailancha? Your Highness, do you know, after receiving this news, Your Majesty was so angry that he even cleared the dinner table, and after that, he ordered His Royal Highness to be transferred back to the royal capital. Li Gang was removed from the post of commander-in-chief of the Third Fleet under His Royal Highness," Viscount Luo Ning began to tell in detail about some of the situation in the royal capital.

Actually, these Xiu Senya princes also got some news, but if Viscount Luo Ning talked about it in detail, he was still willing to listen to it.

This Viscount Luo Ning is not an ordinary person, his father and grandparents are close ministers of the Kingdom of Eske, he has been sent to the palace since he was very young, and he has taken up a position, because he is a few years older than Prince Xiu Senya, and he is very close to him, and the relationship between the two is very good. It can be said that Viscount Luo Ning should be regarded as in the camp of Prince Xiu Senya, but. Because the interests of the family are more important, a big favor or a small favor can help Xiu Senya, but it can help.

This is the principle of some large aristocratic families. But now, these words have the intention of taking refuge

After listening to Viscount Luo Ning's words, Prince Xiu Senya was silent for a moment: "What is the news you brought this time?"

"Hehe, Your Highness is so smart and wise. I'm here to convey this order, and I'll announce it in public in a moment. Viscount Luo Ning said with a smile: "You have been appointed as the joint governor of the Third and Fourth Fleets, responsible for encircling and suppressing pirates and recapturing warships. Pirates must not be given the opportunity to build up their strength. Prince Husenya exhaled lightly, and then said, "This is not only a good thing, but it is also a responsibility and a burden, and it is a mess." ”

"I believe that with His Highness's intelligence and skills, it will not be too difficult to clean up this mess, not to mention, through this matter, Your Highness has gotten it. It's more than a fleet, isn't it?" said Viscount Luo Ning with a smile.

Prince Xiu Senya looked at Viscount Luo Ning, and Viscount Luo Ning also looked at Prince Xiu Senya, and the two of them suddenly laughed loudly at the same time, and the loud laughter spread far away, far away.

"Is His Highness Husenya down? he is here himself?" Testashaw led, and Romon was in the office. Suddenly I heard the report from the attendant, and asked in surprise.

"Yes, my lord, Prince Xiu Senya himself has come, and is now coming this way. The squire said.

"Where are you? I'll go over and greet you. Romon thought for a moment and said.

No matter what, Prince Husenya, as His Royal Highness the Prince, is also his ally, and Romon can't just wait in the room like this. When he went to see Prince Husenya, the other party also greeted him many times.

Sure enough, when Romon walked out of the lord's villa, he saw that a carriage had stopped in front of the door, and under the protection of several knights, Prince Huxenia stepped down.

"Count Tetasho, I've come for you. Prince Huxenia smiled.

Romon invited him inside, and when the two of them were seated, Romon asked, "Your Highness, why did you come here in person this time? Is something happening?"

"It's true that something happened, my net Liu was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Third Fleet, and commanded the third and fourth fleets at the same time, my father was really angry this time, he didn't want to lose again, I came here this time to ask for your help, I hope you can pour all your navy. Together with my fleet, fight the pirates. ”

From the time he was able to come over in person this time, Luo Meng had already guessed what the situation would be, and he was not surprised, Luo Meng nodded: "This is no problem, please rest assured, Your Highness, I will send Shakat ." Lead all the main navies of the Fifth Fleet, fight side by side with the Third and Fourth Fleets, and make sure to eliminate all pirates. ”

Hearing Romont's reply, Prince Huxenia was pleased, and from this point of view, Romon was appointed earl. Becoming a sixteenth-level druid did not change their position, so the two settled the matter.

Three days later, the Combined Navy came out again. (To be continued)
