Chapter 331 Ultimatums and the Silver War
“en? Someone.”
Standing at Fort Dearborn ” outside the office of Lieutenant General Gustavus, the commander of the garrison.
The keen senses and spirituality of the official wizard have made Alwin clearly hear the conversation in the room, well, not too pleasant.
“Cyrus is really domineering! Don’t you even bother to give a reason to block the Sea Territory? We”
That was the voice of Lieutenant General Gustav, the owner of the room.
Another voice that sounded very unfamiliar but arrogant enough interrupted him very rudely:
“Oh! Anyway, the messenger of the note book has been delivered. What should I do? , I think you should be very clear.
As for the reason? We Cyrus do things on this sea, when have we ever needed a reason?
Okay.
I’m running out of time to chat with the two of you, and I’m going to your other Tulip colonies.
Hope you can appreciate Cyrus’ good advice!”
Bang——
The office door was slammed open.
Second by two Cyrus army soldiers in fiery-red military uniforms and boots, one dressed in aristocratic suits, with a Cyrus-style moustache, arrogantly. The man strode out.
Alwin, who was standing outside the door, ignored him, as if he was no different from a potted plant by the door, looked steadily forward.
That swaggering appearance, as if this is not the largest military base in the new continent of the Phalatis Kingdom, but the backyard of his home.
It wasn’t until he was completely gone that Alwin heard another voice from inside the door:
“bully intolerably!
Those bastards of Cyrus are not at all Didn’t take us seriously.
If he hadn’t come here as Philip II’s messenger, I would have slapped him to death. Who gave him a transcender who wasn’t even a transcender? Ordinary person, the courage to speak out in front of the two Great Knights?!”
“Well, you and I both know that of course it was Cyrus’ maritime hegemony that made the small man intoxicated by success.
Let’s get down to business.
According to the nautical charts, the people we quietly sent over have sampled and sent back information that the Cyrus soldiers brought back by the ‘Cape Storm’ are not lying.
But the position of the kingdom is a bit awkward, and it is extremely difficult to get the best benefit from this matter. Neither Cyrus, Sark or Atlan are good characters.
p>
In addition to the warning just now, Cyrus is obviously determined to take Potosi.
It seems that the preparatory conservative strategy formulated by the kingdom is the best at present. How to deal with it.
Knock them with a sap, at least fiercely let out a sigh of relief!”
It’s not good to listen to the corner all the time.
As Lieutenant-General Gustav paused for a moment, Alwin stepped forward and knocked on the door.
dong! dong! dong!
“Report!”
“Please come in!”
Push the door and walk in.
“Your Excellency Commander! Captain Alwin Garriott of ‘Cape Storm’ is here to report!”
After standing at attention and salute.
Alwin was not surprised to see Lieutenant General Gustav, and the owner of another voice, “Senior” of his Imperial Family Navy Academy – prospective Legendary battleship Captain Demond Brand Major General.
“Captain Alwin, please take your seat.”
A battleship captain, wherever he is, already belongs to the upper middle and upper ranks of the naval officer system.
Coupled with the many titles on Alwin’s body, even the serious and rigid Lieutenant General Gustav can hardly treat him as an ordinary youngster.
Alwin had just sat down on the sofa opposite the commander. The lieutenant general hadn’t spoken yet. Major General Demond stared at him and asked suddenly:
“Alwin, you have been promoted successfully. Is it?”
The “Cape Storm” had reported to the base in advance that it went out, and just returned early this morning, before returning to the base’s residence, was called by the messenger.
Alwin has nothing to hide.
And before joining the escort mission here, the local military chief will of course receive the resumes of the main personnel. Both chiefs know that Alwin belongs to the kingdom’s witchcraft association “Eye of Violet”. the wizard.
apart from this, thinking of the conversation he just heard, Alwin has already guessed the purpose of the two big guys calling him here.
“fluke!”
Although seeing Alwin come back here in good condition, there should be no surprises, but listening to Alwin say it with his own ears is a relief at the same time. Rejoice, every bit of strength at this critical moment is precious:
“very good! We were a little worried about whether you were up to the job.
Now it seems that There is no problem, the peak Knight and the official wizard are set in one body, which is enough to be a secret soldier that affects the war situation!”
Even if you don’t know much about wizards, as a senior naval officer, Damon is also very clear.
The wizard’s means are varied and varied, and a formal wizard of the “Alchemy School” is not only a representative of productivity. Given enough time to prepare, even killing a Great Knight is not that absolutely does not have possibility.
In the fourth rank, the “crown wizard” only exists in legends, and the third rank upper wizard is the guest of the throne. Now, a Level 2 official wizard is already a high-end force in conventional operations.
Even among all the armed forces of the current kingdom in the new continent, Alwin’s current extraordinary class is already Number One Person under a limited number of Great Knights!
Enough to do the job!
Subsequently, Major General Demont also explained the latest situation related to the Potosi silver mine during the period when Alwin was concentrating on preparing for promotion to ceremony.
Indeed.
The development of the situation on the side of the Potosi Islands, as the captured captain Victor had expected, led to the three parties working together to block the news.
The information on “Silver Island” in the northern part of the new continent has not been well known for the time being.
But for this unparalleled treasure, the navies of the Three Kingdoms have also posed fiercely and killed several times in the vast open sea.
Of course, it was not the three-legged battle against each other, but the siege of Cyrus by Sark and Atlan’s navy.
But the sea power hegemon is worthy of the sea power hegemony, even if it is a pair of two, it has the upper hand.
The situation was temporarily stalemate only because the three parties restrained each other and no one could safely land on the island for mineral mining.
However, in order to avoid a new spoiler.
Cyrus also issued a diplomatic note to the colonies of various countries in the new continent, and had banned ships from other kingdoms from entering a large area of the Sea Territory demarcated by him.
This range not only includes the Silver Island, but even the “Big Cape Fishing Farm” in Atlan is also included in a large part.
Let others think that Cyrus is eyeing the big fishing grounds in Atlanta again.
Although there is some suspicion of a clumsy denial resulting in self-exposure, under the domineering style of Cyrus, other countries can only dare to speak out.
“After getting the information you captured, we have immediately sent it back to the homeland.
Before Cyrus knew that we actually knew, the kingdom had already contacted Satan. Ke and Atlan made contact.
Now the Tulip Alliance and they have reached a temporary joint front to resist the pressure from Cyrus.
However, the front is tight now, Even though all the strength of Sark and Atlan has been exhausted, and Cyrus is fighting away.
But with the arrival of their follow-up support, it has gradually overwhelmed the two countries.
To make matters worse, the pirates in the north are also becoming more and more active recently, which makes both countries a little wary and has repeatedly urged us to send troops.
So the kingdom’s plan is to prepare for the attack from Cyrus. The supply line starts!”
The interests of the country are also impossible because the intimidation of a messenger will be dispelled, and Major General Demon told the plan that he had made before the arrival of the messenger of Cyrus.
He then took out a nautical chart and pointed to one of the points for Alwin to analyze:
“Look! Cyrus has never managed much of the ‘barren’ northern continent.
p>
Even in the central and southern parts of the main occupation, their colonies were mostly on the west coast of the new continent, on the side of the Broken Star Sea, rather than on the east coast, on the side of the Black Sea.
From their nearest central colony, it will take at least 20 days to go to the Potosí Islands, and the long supply line will inevitably drag down the frontline battle.
As long as there is no way to overwhelm the first two in a spurt of energy If you don’t have a home, you will have to be dragged into a war of attrition!”
Alwin is of course aware of Cyrus, the overlord’s sphere of influence in the new continent.
From the middle of the new continent to the south, the order is:
New Cyrus Vice King District, New Granada Vice King District, Secret Dragon Vice King District, La Plata The deputy king’s district, any one of the deputy king’s districts is much larger than that of the Kingdom of Pharretis, and there are several governor districts under it.
Each area is managed by a vice-king of Cyrus and has its own direct fleet. Although the strength of the fleet is also strong and weak because of the establishment, there is no doubt that they have the power to suppress this sea.
Even in order to prevent the remnants of the two empires from the new continent from counterattacking and shocking the countries, there is at least one quasi-Legendary under each deputy king to suppress, which has more cards than the poor Pharatis. many.
At this time, it depends on how fast the four vice kings support and how determined they are.
Demon looked up at Alwin, and the garrison commander, General Gustav, also turned his head.
“So we have a difficult task for you.
In this “Silver War” that decides the ownership of ‘Potosi’, between the near sea and the far sea , to block the main supply line of Cyrus.
It happens that the ‘horn of the storm’ and the ‘endeavour’ have just arrived in the new continent on rotation, and even if they suddenly disappear, it is not easy to be caught by the intelligence agencies of Cyrus. Take note.
The order given to us by Your Majesty, Queen, is that the great silver mine must never again fall into the hands of Cyrus, at least not entirely.
Now it should be no problem to ask you to switch to ghost units and use the strength of two battleships to deal with some supply ships, civilian ships and abnormally active pirates.
Even small-scale warship reinforcements, Eat everything you can! Just try not to leave any witnesses behind!”
Hearing this, Alwin’s mind quickly turned.
Isn’t this what the kingdom wants to be, and what it wants to do?
Because in the middle of the new continent it is bordered by the vice-king district of New Cyrus, and Cyrus is also the largest customer of domestic industrial products.
I don’t want to openly send warships to the war, so I just cast aside all considerations for face, and I want to hold back Cyrus, maybe even when the sandpiper and the clam fight each other, it’s the fisherman who benefits idea.
Under many scruples, he could only stab Cyrus in secret.
And.
As I expected, the war was involuntarily immediately after it started.
Especially this kind of interception mission with an uncertain target is the most troublesome. Hunting at sea is like opening a blind box. It is difficult to tell whether there is a little white rabbit or a big one in the opposite boat before you start. tiger.
When the pirates were hunted down, at least there was still a list and corresponding information, so that the hunters had a bottom line.
But of course, Alwin also impossible to refuse this task. In fact, under the grand strategy of the kingdom, he has no room to refuse.
Just Alwin’s confidence.
According to his current strength and battleship configuration, as long as he doesn’t encounter the kind of “quasi-Legendary battleship” that is almost insoluble, he will not be afraid of anyone.
Pop—!
Stand at attention.
“Guaranteed to get the job done!”
The promise was neat and tidy.
The two base officers smiled.
“Relax! Just do your best while saving yourself!
Other countries in the alliance will also send battleships to set up a network, but your task is the most difficult.
At the same time, we guarantee that all seizures in the operation will belong to you.
And the base is not without additional support.”
Gus Lieutenant General Taff said and shouted to the door:
“Is Major Boris here?”
