Twilight West City Chamber, after the soul meeting is over.

After ten seconds of silence, Emerson opened his eyes for the first time: "Everyone, your majesty's will, I believe you all understand it?"

As a military adviser, Cumberland sitting on the side seat muttered to himself: "Assemble a fleet that can bring back ten thousand people and raid the ancient city..."

Emerson turned his gaze to the Raglans, who were in charge of the commercial sector: "How many ships can the kingdom call?"

Mrs. Raglan gave the answer without hesitation: "A new Karak three-masted cargo ship was launched in the middle of this month, plus the previous "Black Pearl", "San Sidro", and "Holy Will". There are currently four ships that the kingdom can call."

Mr. Raglan added: “The largest of these four ships has a capacity of 220 people and the smallest one is less than 150 people. Together, they can only carry about 700 people.”

Emerson crossed his arms, looked at the mural on the top of the chamber, and sighed deeply: "There are only 700 people...too far from your Majesty's request."

Cumberland said suddenly: "There is a way."

Emerson looked at him.

"Rent all available ships in the kingdom!" Cumberland said with a beard. "We can rent cargo ships of the Southern Empire, warships of the North Island tribes, and even fishing boats of the surrounding residents."

Ulysses questioned: "Will such a large-scale leased ship attract the attention of the enemy?"

Cumberland shook his head slightly: "First, Ulster's interior is in turmoil, not to mention that they are still at war with Connaught, and they have no time to take into account the dynamics of the sea; second, we can use individuals or shops. In the name of, the ships will be leased in batches, and the collected ships will be hidden in the temporary port of Waiheke Island, which can minimize attention."

Terrence calculated an account on the paper, and later asked Mrs. Raglan: "The lease and deposit of the ship will be a lot of expenses. Can the kingdom afford it?"

There was no worry on the latter's face at all: "Please don't worry, with the kingdom's current financial resources, let alone rent, even if you buy all these ships, it won't be a problem."

Upon hearing this, Cumberland turned his attention to Huggins: "About this plan, it must be absolutely confidential..."

Huggins leaned slightly and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, the alien troops in the overall situation of Xi'an will monitor the entire city around the clock."

Cumberland nodded slightly, then looked at the people around him. He suddenly found that from the end of the soul meeting to the present, Emerson hadn't said much, and he asked: "As the cabinet prime minister, what do you think of your majesty's plan?"

Emerson shook his head and said to the other participants: "Please follow your majesty's will to do your own work."

Watching other people walk out the door one after another, Cumberland looked at Emerson: "What do you want to say about your Majesty's plan?"

"The Ulster Kingdom is currently in a state of internal and external troubles. At this time, a large fleet of ships will be used to raid the ancient port and rescue a large number of slaves as a source of troops. Although this plan has a high risk, once it succeeds, it will completely open the north. The strategic situation of the environment, I fully support this plan. What I am thinking about now is another thing..."

Cumberland was a little curious: "Another thing?"

"If your majesty's raid is successful, it means that the kingdom's puppet regime has successfully established a foothold in the northern territory. Then, refugees from the Holy Acropolis will have a place for resettlement."

Cumberland heard Emerson's words and said in surprise: "Do you want to resettle the refugees from the Holy Acropolis to the barbarians? Have you forgotten? The Holy Acropolis just ended a war with the northern barbarians! "

The latter reminds the former: "The former enemy of the Holy Acropolis was the coalition of Ulster and Connaught. The barbarian tribes in the south were only forced to participate in this battle. Moreover, the puppet regime in the north is now the target of combat. It is the Kingdom of Ulster, which is also in line with the mentality of the holy Acropolis people and the barbarian tribes of the same hatred and hatred."

Cumberland thought for a while, and asked another question: "If the refugees from the Holy Acropolis are arranged in the barbaric territory of the north, it means that the Kingdom of Musi will be completely torn from the church."

"Will the situation be worse than it is now?" Emerson asked rhetorically, "Accepting alien species, apostates, and scholars. Twilight has done everything that can offend the church. Didn't you find out? After the Battle of the Silver Ring, the church has focused all its attention on us?"

Cumberland recalled the actions of the church, stationing troops on the border, sheltering refugees, intervening in the internal affairs of the Holy Acropolis... The recent behavior of the church seems to be fighting for the control of the Holy Acropolis, but in fact it is indeed curbing the city. development of.

Emerson frowned and said: "Originally, before the Battle of the Silver Ring was over, we still had Silver Ring and the barbarian army to help contain the power of the church. But now, the Silver Ring Kingdom has been destroyed, and the only barrier in front of us has been After disappearing, the church can finally free up its hands to clean up us."

"The three parishes of the Heavenly Father’s Church span most of the continent and cover more than 120 kingdoms. In so many countries, as long as the Pope’s sacred text, Muxicheng will be regarded as a heresy, Your Majesty The ruling foundation of the Holy Acropolis will also be declared illegal. At that time, our southern neighbor, Guyan City, will be able to use naval forces to cut off our trade routes; and the iron cavalry of the Holy Acropolis can pass through the military fortress. Stepping into the Moon Creek Plain where there is no natural danger or defense, Silver Ring City, North Quarry and even Muxi City will be completely exposed to the enemy's army."

Cumberland's expression became stern: "So, isn't the future of Twilight West in darkness?"

Emerson was silent for a while, and said: "Faced with this disadvantaged situation, Twilight has three solutions."

"Three ways?"

"Let’s talk about the worst method first. If your Majesty’s strategy to the north goes smoothly~lightnovelpub.net~ the puppet regime can gain a foothold in the north, then Muxicheng will have a final retreat. If, I mean if , Everything is developing in the worst direction. We may have to abandon Muxicheng and move all the domestic population, technology and wealth to the north..."

Cumberland widened his eyes: "Abandon Twilight City? Do you know what you are talking about?!"

Emerson glared at him: "I said! This is the worst way! I think your Majesty has the same idea, so he opened up a second stronghold in the north, so that one day, for the West Use the Kingdom Retreat..."

Cumberland rubbed his forehead: "Tell me about the other two methods!"

"Let’s talk about a slightly better way. Right now, the "King’s Faction", which originally maintained neutrality in the Holy Acropolis, has gradually turned to the "Liberal" and "Church Faction" as the old king’s body deteriorates day by day. Dion led The delegation of Liberalism supports the upper ranks of the liberals, and the church delegation naturally supports the ecclesiastical sects. At present, the two are evenly matched. However, according to the information sent from the front, the situation is not optimistic. However, if the candidate for the throne of the liberals can successfully rise to the throne, then Twilight You can achieve an alliance with the Holy Acropolis and fight for a buffer barrier for the kingdom. Of course, I am talking about the best situation."

Cumberland folded his arms in front of his chest and shook his head helplessly: "The throne of the Holy Acropolis cannot be determined simply. Didn't you say that there is one last way?"

Emerson was silent for a while.

Cumberland cast a suspicious look.

Emerson raised his head and looked at the cross in the middle of the chamber: "The last way is to overthrow the church!" ()
