Extraordinary Sailing

"Huh? Someone."

Standing outside the office of Lieutenant General Gustav Gustav, Commander of the Garrison, in Fort Dirben.

The keen senses and spirituality of the official wizard have allowed Ivan to clearly hear the conversation in the room, um, it's not a very pleasant conversation.

"Sirius is really domineering! Don't you even bother to give a reason to block the sea area? We"

That was the voice of the owner, Lieutenant General Gustav.

Another voice that sounded very unfamiliar but arrogant enough interrupted him very rudely:

"Oh! Anyway, the emissary has sent the note. I think you should be very clear about what to do.

As for the reason? When we Sirius do things in this sea, when did we need a reason?

alright.

I'm short on time so I won't chat with the two of you, I have to go to other colonies of your tulips.

I hope you can appreciate Sirius' kind advice! "

Bang——

The office door was pushed open at once.

Under the escort of two Cyrus army soldiers wearing fiery red military uniforms and boots, a tall man in aristocratic formal attire with a Cyrus-style mustache strode out.

He ignored Ai Wenli standing outside the door, as if he was no different from a potted plant by the door, and walked over without looking sideways.

With that swaggering look, it seems that this is not the largest military base of Phalatis Kingdom in the New World, but his backyard.

When he was completely gone, Ivan heard another voice from inside the door:

"Too much deception!

Those bastards in Cyrus don't think much of us.

If he hadn't come here as an envoy of Philip II, I almost couldn't resist slapping him to death. Who gave an ordinary person who wasn't even an extraordinary person the courage to speak out in front of the two great knights? ! "

"Okay, you and I both know that of course it's Sirius' sea supremacy that makes the villain succeed.

Closer to home.

According to the nautical chart, the people we quietly sent over have sampled and sent back information, and the Sirius soldiers brought back by the Horn of the Storm did not lie.

However, the position of the kingdom is somewhat awkward, and it is extremely difficult to obtain the maximum benefit in this matter. Neither Cyrus, Sark, nor Atlan are easy characters to deal with.

Coupled with the warning just now, Sirius is obviously determined to take Potosi.

It seems that the reserve and conservative strategy formulated by the kingdom is the best way to deal with it at present.

Hit them with a sap, at least let out a breath of depression! "

I don't think it's good to listen to the corner all the time.

When Lieutenant General Gustav's voice temporarily stopped, Ivan stepped forward to knock on the door.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Report!"

"Come in!"

Push the door and walk in.

"Your Excellency, Commander! Captain Irwin Garriott of the Horn of the Storm is here to report!"

After standing at attention and saluting.

Unsurprisingly, Ivan saw Lieutenant Admiral Gustav, and the owner of another voice, his "senior" of the Royal Naval Academy--Rear Admiral Demond Brand, the quasi-legendary battleship captain.

"Captain Ivan, please sit down."

No matter where, a battleship captain already belongs to the middle and upper ranks of the naval officer system.

Coupled with the addition of many titles to Aiwen, even the serious and rigid Lieutenant General Gustav could hardly treat him as an ordinary young man.

Ivan had just sat down on the sofa opposite the commander, and before the lieutenant general could speak, Major General Demon stared at him and asked suddenly:

"Aiwen, have you been promoted successfully?"

The "Storm Horn" had reported to the base in advance when it went out, but it just came back early this morning, and before it could return to its residence in the base, it was called by the messenger.

Aiwen has nothing to hide. Of course, the stronger his strength, the more attention he receives, and the easier it is to make meritorious deeds.

And before joining the escort mission here, the local military chief will of course receive the resumes of the main personnel. Both chief officers know that Aiwen is a wizard who belongs to the kingdom's witchcraft association "Eye of Violet".

In addition, thinking of the conversation he just heard, Aiwen has already guessed the purpose of the two big guys calling him over.

"A fluke!"

Although seeing Aiwen come back here in good condition, there should be no accidents, but hearing Aiwen say it with his own ears, he was relieved and overjoyed at the same time. Every ounce of strength is precious at this critical moment:

"Great! Originally, we were a little worried about whether you were up to the job.

Now it seems that there should be no problem. The combination of a peak knight and an official wizard is enough to be a dark-handed surprise soldier that can affect the battle situation! "

Even if he doesn't know much about wizards, as a high-ranking naval officer, Demon knows it very well.

The means of wizards are rich and changeable, and an official wizard of the "Alchemy School" is not only a representative of productivity. If enough time is given to prepare, it is not impossible to kill a great knight.

The fourth-level "crown wizard" only exists in legends, and the third-level high-ranking wizard is now the king's guest. A second-level official wizard is already a high-end force in conventional combat.

Even if it is placed among all the armed forces of the current kingdom in the New World, Aiwen's current extraordinary rank is already the first person except for a limited number of great knights!

Enough to take on the heavy responsibility!

Later, Major General De Meng also explained the latest situation related to the Potosi Silver Mine during the period when Ivan was concentrating on preparing for the promotion ceremony.

really.

The development of the situation on the Potosi Islands, just as the captured captain Victor expected, the three parties jointly blocked the news.

The information about "Silver Island" in the northern part of the New World has not been known to everyone for the time being.

But for this unparalleled treasure, the navies of the three countries have already set up a stance on the vast open sea and killed several times.

Of course, instead of the three-legged battle against each other, Sark and Atlan's navy besieged Cyrus together.

But the overlord of sea power is worthy of being the overlord of sea power, and even in a one-on-two situation, he still has the upper hand.

It was only because the three parties restrained each other that no one could safely go to the island for mineral mining, so the situation was temporarily deadlocked.

However, in order to avoid the emergence of new spoilers.

Sirius also sent diplomatic notes to the colonies of the countries in the New World, and has banned ships from other kingdoms from entering a large area of ​​the sea designated by him.

This scope not only includes the Silver Island, but also includes a large part of Atlan's "Big Horn Cape Fishing Ground".

Let others think that Cyrus is eyeing Atlan's big fishing ground again.

Although there are some suspicions that there is no silver three hundred taels here, but under Sirius' domineering style, other countries can only dare to be angry and dare not speak out.

"After getting the information you seized, we have sent it back to the mainland as soon as possible.

Before Sirius knew that we actually knew, the Kingdom had contacted Sac and Atlan.

Now the Tulip Alliance and they have temporarily reached a joint front to jointly resist the pressure from Cyrus.

However, the front is tight now, even though all the strength of Sac and Atlan has been exhausted, and Silius is playing away.

But with the arrival of their follow-up support, the two countries have gradually been overwhelmed.

To make matters worse, the pirates in the north have also become more active recently, which has made both countries a little vigilant and has repeatedly urged us to send troops.

So the kingdom's plan is to start with the supply line of Sirius! "

It is impossible for the country's interests to be dispelled just because of the intimidation of an envoy. Major General Demon said that he had already made a plan before the arrival of the envoy of Sirius.

Then he took out a nautical chart and pointed to one point for Ivan to analyze:

"Look! Sirius has never managed the 'barren' northern continent.

Even in the central and southern parts of the main occupied area, most of their colonies are on the west coast of the New World, on the side close to the Broken Star Sea, rather than on the east coast close to the Black Sea.

Starting 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 battles.

As long as there is no way to subdue the first two with all efforts, they will have to be dragged into a war of attrition! "

Aiwen is of course clear about the sphere of influence of the overlord Sirius in the New World.

From the middle of the New World to the south, in order:

The sub-kingdoms of New Silius, New Granada, Miron, and La Plata, any of the sub-kingdoms are much larger than the mainland of the Kingdom of Phalatis. Several governorships were established.

Each region is managed by a Cyrus vice-king, and each has its own direct fleet. Although the strength of the fleet varies due to the establishment of the first and the later, the combination of them undoubtedly possesses the formidable force to suppress this sea.

Even in order to prevent the remnants of the two empires of the New World from counterattacking and deter the nations, each deputy king has at least one quasi-legendary ship to suppress it, which has more cards than the poor Phalatis.

At this time, it depends on how fast the four deputy kings support and how determined they are.

Demon raised his head and stared at Ivan, and General Gustav, the commander of the garrison next to him, also turned his head.

"So we have a difficult task for you.

In this "Silver War" that determines the ownership of "Potosi", the main supply line of Cyrus is blocked between the near sea and the far sea.

It just so happened that the Horn of the Storm and the Endeavor had just come to the New World on rotation. Even if they suddenly disappeared, they would not be easily noticed by Sirius' intelligence agency.

Her Majesty's order to us is that that great silver mine must never again fall into the hands of Cyrus, at least not completely.

Now I ask you to switch to a ghost unit and use the strength of two battleships to deal with some supply ships, civilian ships and pirates who have become extremely active. There should be no problem.

Even for small-scale warship reinforcements, eat everything you can eat! Just try not to leave any witnesses behind! "

Hearing this, Ai Wen's mind turned quickly.

Isn't this the fact that the kingdom wants to be that thing and establish that thing at the same time?

Because in the middle of the New World, it borders the New Sirius Vice-King District, and Sirius is also the largest customer of the country's industrial products.

He didn't want to openly send warships to participate in the battle, directly tearing his face, and wanted to hold back Sirius, and he might even have the idea of ​​fighting between snipe and clam for the fisherman's gain.

Under many scruples, they could only secretly poke and stumbling Sirius.

and.

As I expected, immediately after the war started, I couldn't help myself.

Especially this kind of interception mission with uncertain target is the most troublesome. Hunting at sea is like opening a blind box. It is difficult for you to tell whether the opposite boat is a little white rabbit or a big tiger before you start.

When chasing and killing pirates back then, there was at least a list and corresponding information, so that the chasing and killing people had a bottom line.

However, it is certainly impossible for Aiwen to refuse this task. In fact, under the kingdom's grand strategy, there is no room for him to refuse.

It's just that Ivan is confident.

Based on his current strength and battleship configuration, as long as he doesn't encounter that kind of "quasi-legendary battleship" that is almost incomprehensible, he will not be afraid of anyone.

Snapped--!

Stand at attention and salute.

"Guaranteed to complete the task!"

Promised cleanly.

The two base officers smiled.

"Relax! Just do your best while preserving yourself!

Other countries in the alliance will also send warships to set up networks layer by layer, but your task is the most difficult.

At the same time, we guarantee that all the seizures during the operation belong to you.

And the base is not without additional support. "

Lieutenant General Gustav shouted to the door:

"Has Major Boris come?"
