With a smile on his face, Tirnarant sent the last wealthy businessman from the Lisbonto region to the door of the government office, watched the other party get into the carriage, looked at himself again and again, closed the door, and the wheels rumbled up, gradually turning into a small black dot in the night

Behind Tirnarante, the Lisbento government hall was brightly lit, in stark contrast to the dead silence outside, the reception banquet of the new political officials in Lisbento, the base camp of the imperial maritime trade, was naturally grand and luxurious, and the invitation from the Lisbento government office, no matter how reluctant they were, the wealthy families of Lisbento did not dare to offend a regional administrative officer with an unknown background on the surface, but definitely not an ordinary person, but at the banquet, no one mentioned the current embarrassment of Lisbento, even if someone wanted to say it, it was stopped by the eyes of his companions,

"What do you want to do, the Magistrate has just arrived in Lisbonto, even if he knows the situation, what can he do? On the contrary, none of the regional magistrates have realized that they have actually taken over a huge mess!"

"It seems that the situation is worse than expected!"

Turning around and looking at the brightly lit government affairs hall, the smile on Tirnarante's face turned into a cold frown in an instant, the emperor's speculation was correct, the temptation of twelve million golden tickets, the secret alliance of the top ten southern merchant groups, is not the most terrible for Lisbonto, the most terrible thing is these black hands who colluded with the southern merchant groups and secretly contributed to this fluctuation,

As the base camp of the empire's maritime trade, Lisbonto is strategically located as a hub between the north and south seas, with beautiful and charming scenery, and it is also the most prestigious resort in the entire continent. Thirty percent of the wealthy families of the Obaro continent are gathered here, seventy-five percent of the merchant groups of the entire empire have set up branches here, thousands of ships come and go every day, the number of merchants has exceeded 50,000, and there are 1,730 maritime trade fleets of more than ten ships

That is, there are more than seventeen thousand ships in Lisbonto alone, so many merchants, so many fleets. Even if you lose your judgment of danger because of the temptation in front of you, the scope can only be a small number of people, how can you let the entire Lisbonto business group fall into it at once?

If there is no one secretly channeling this undercurrent, Tirnarant himself does not believe it, and the situation at tonight's banquet does indeed show that

"Can you give me the list of chambers of commerce who will attend the banquet tonight?" Tyrnarante turned and stopped at the door of the government affairs hall, and stretched out his hand to the government officer in charge of registration at the door. It's time to close the net,

"Of course, my lord," the official quickly stood up, not knowing what it meant to hand over the list respectfully with both hands. For this new boss, whose background is not yet clear, the entire government office is cautious

I have heard that I once had the experience of being an administrative officer in the Salander region, but when I mentioned the position of administrative officer in Lisbento, the base of maritime trade, I was still a little reluctant. Although there may be a certain background, no one can do anything about such a situation as soon as it comes. Who doesn't know the importance of Lisbento to the entire empire, it is the most important area for the emperor, and it is really unlucky to encounter such a thing at once, who says that it is not, it is not easy to get such a fat difference, and the ass has not yet been hot, and it will immediately get out of the way because of this financial fluctuation!

Ignoring the strange gaze that fell on him in the entire government affairs hall, Tirnarante pretended to flip through a few pages casually, densely filled with more than a dozen pages, at least two or three hundred, and then handed it to one of the three deputies, and waved his hand to everyone, "Thank you very much for your efforts! I will take this list first, but I have just arrived, and the other party has given me face, and I should also visit one by one." Tirnarant walked very gracefully to the carriage that had been arranged outside the hall, and the three deputies followed closely into the carriage.

The door closed, and with a slight jolt, it began to move forward

"Three of you, I want to take a break!" said Tirnarante to the three officers of the Ministry of Supervision sitting opposite, and turned his eyes to the lifeless dim street lamps outside, the three inspectors began to discuss their findings in a low voice, and the position they were standing from could have a full view of the entire banquet without any dead ends, and the emperor allowed himself to hold a reception banquet without any scruples in such a stormy moment, and the effect was really surprisingly good

Maybe tomorrow is the deadline, and these people's disguises have been reduced a lot, or they are afraid that this new political officer who doesn't know the details will interfere at a critical moment, and even use military force to stop it, and there are always a number of people at the banquet, trying their best to stop those businessmen who want to complain to themselves.

Those people, Tirnarant didn't know, but the three deputies sent by the emperor to him had been watching all this coldly in the corner of the banquet,

Because the entire Lisbonto merchant group could not be trusted, and the business alliance system could not guarantee that there were no internal problems, the real identity of the three deputies turned out to be officers of the Imperial Supervision Department directly under the emperor, and they were also temporarily transferred by the emperor from the Gangfei Northern Legion.

In this matter, the Lisbonto Supervision Department has become the object that needs to be isolated, it can be imagined that the anger in the emperor's heart, no one here knows them, and the merchants who attended the banquet only regarded the three deputies as people who came with them, and did not take them seriously,

These three people also don't know the businessmen of Lisbento, but they have a very good ability, that is, remember each other's faces, look at the target with suspicion, and see the true mood of the individual from the face of different expressions, this is the skill of the Ministry of Supervision in torture, and one of them is a master of drawing pictures, and then the light outside the car window, after a short exchange between the three of them, a few stick figures have been placed on the table of the carriage,

The light of the street lamp kept flickering in front of the window, and his solemn face revealed a coldness, for the situation in front of him, Tirnarante had been more careful before he arrived, but when he arrived in Lisbonto, he realized how careful he was in the face of the huge predicament he was about to face.

O very sad Lord, a tragic figure who will soon be crushed to pieces by the rolling wheels of this torrent, everyone thinks so? A wry smile appeared on Tirnarant's lips, and the carriage sparkled through a commercial street in the city,

Tirnarant opened the curtain with his hand and saw that the report said that there were a large number of piles of fine iron in the direction of the port, and the horse-drawn carriages carrying goods next to the street were also fine iron, and the originally prosperous commercial street was like a scene. It was also occupied by countless fine iron, more than half of the shops in the city were closed, and the copper facades of the shops were hung with the sign of transfer, and the bleak sound of the city was made in the May wind, which should have been very pleasant, and the shops that were closed, the listless pedestrians, the merchants who sighed, and the loud shouts of drunks on the roadside, on the commercial streets of the city that never sleeped. In the past, there were only two or three carriages like flowing water, and there were only two or three of them, or the kind that galloped quickly without attachment,

The rumored Port of Gold. Lisbonto, the base camp of the empire's maritime trade, with tens of thousands of merchant ships, was destroyed by an invisible force in just one month, which was simply a war-level destructive force. The situation in Lisbernto was even worse than I had imagined, and the land of the invincible empire was in the city. There are countless dead and wounded

"I hope you understand that the reason why you were transferred to the position of Lisbonto is not only because of the relationship between you and me, but also because you have nothing to do with all the forces in the empire, so you can really clean up this mess from the perspective of the administrative officer, this is the place you are going to enter, it is not the most prosperous city in the empire, but a bloody battlefield, whether it is now or in the future! The emperor's words before getting out of the car seemed to be still echoing in his ears, Tirnarant took a deep breath, that His Majesty was right, he stepped into a battlefield, and it was a battlefield where his side was about to collapse completely! The tide is coming, who can turn the tide?

The war between the Falcon Empire and the six southern countries, who started the war first, has always been an uncertain matter in the history of Obaro, because of the Lisbento incident, which led to an armed conflict between the Imperial Navy and the Southern Fizer Kingdom, the Imperial Navy's brutal shelling of Fizer's largest harbor city of Luansok, resulting in the destruction of the entire port and more than 3,000 casualties, so it is regarded as a landmark event of the declaration of war,

However, if we move forward the time by five days, we will see that in the territory of the Istan Empire in the eastern part of the Inland Sea, the armies of the six southern countries have already waged war against the imperial army, and in this confrontation between the north and the south continent, which was later called the first financial war, few historians will focus on a small twin regiment that was completely destroyed because of the impact.

Double-headed Eagle Merchant Regiment

This name, which was just a flash in the pan in history, is the direction that affects the entire imperial navy's operations at this moment

The Emperor's order, at the first moment of the war, was to find the Double-Headed Eagle Merchant Regiment's own fleet and give a deadly attack, so that the other party would not have a chance to appear in Lisbonto at all, and the news of the start of the battle in Luansok had reached the Admiralty, and at the same time, an ongoing assessment in the Imperial Admiralty was also coming to an end

"Based on the results of the two reconnaissance attempts made by the merchant ships, and the judgment of the direction of the sea flow, I think that the position of the target team off the coast of Lisbonto is at an angle of 75 degrees southeast of Lisbonto, and within an area of 110 nautical miles to 150 nautical miles! Such a distance is also suitable for the opponent to arrive in Lisbonto within one day!" Wearing the uniform of the Imperial Navy staff officer and with no title on his shoulder, Stink smug his hand to draw a slash on the chart on the table, write his opinion, and then sign his name and hand it to an Imperial Navy officer who was already waiting next to him

"I heard that the fleets in the harbor have gone out, I wonder if it's true?"

Stinkson asked disapprovingly. This is the final additional test content of the three project exams, and it is also the most difficult one, requiring to find out the target lurking in the sea off Lisbonto, as the basis for judgment was sent yesterday, that is, a demonic character like Stink dared to take this extra question, and others simply had nowhere to start, fortunately, the previous exam items were basically completed, even if there were no extra points, the overall impact was not great, and many former Strand Navy admirals in the room wearing Imperial Navy uniforms were reviewing the test papers for the last time and handed them over to the person in charge of collecting the exam papers

"That's true," the officer who collected the examination papers replied without hesitation, and the whole hall suddenly fell silent,

"It can't really be that plan, right?"

Stink seemed to think of something, his expression was shocked, he gasped, and asked slightly

The so-called plan is that when they were ordered to arrive at the Admiralty for reorganization and training half a month ago, the Admiralty proposed that in order to test the ability of everyone, it was decided to give Admiral Strant a big assessment of all cooperation, and the assessment content was to make an imperial suppression plan for the entire southern coast region within five days.

Of course, this is just an assessment, and even the officers of the Sea of Alien do not think that there will be a day of implementation, for the suppression of the entire southern coastal area, even if it is the Imperial Navy, it seems a little arrogant, the suppression of the sea area can be different from land warfare, the environment of the inland sea is complex, the distribution of the sea environment, the undercurrents caused by the direction of the sea current, and the tides under the change of seasons must be known, and the number of warships invested is not possible in this era, although the defeat and the Imperial Navy, which has been cultivated by the Sea of Alien for decades, and has been committed to the hegemony of the inland sea, the naval elites also think that this plan is impossible to do,

"If it can't be realized in reality, then it can be realized in the plan, and your performance will determine which fleet you are assigned to and what position you hold!"

The reply of the Imperial Admiralty made the officers of the Strant, who were originally a little repulsed, let out a boiling sound,

It is a matter of the future, and everyone has a spirit of 12 points, and each chooses the southern coastal area of the inland sea that they are most familiar with as the setting content.

Five days later, this super battle plan, which gathered the wisdom and heart of the entire Strand Navy, was placed on the table of the Imperial Admiralty Dustrunkay,

With this plan as the foundation, the sea environment and climate change along the southern coast of the inland sea are clear at a glance, and even the supply points and reef areas in the southern coastal areas have been marked one by one.

After three days and nights of non-sleep revisions made by 37 front-line fleet staff officers of the Imperial Navy's operational staff, based on the operational characteristics of the Imperial Navy's fleets, the final battle plan was "The Emperor's Sword!" (to be continued......
