Chapter 627: Opening the Bow without Turning Back (Part 2)
readx;
Tang Fang seemed to know what they were thinking and what worries they had. His cold and stern expression gradually eased, and he said calmly, "That's why you need Elena. [Super many good novels]"
"Have you ever thought about why the old duke sent her abroad to study in the Charles Federation, just to avoid getting caught?"
The two of them were stunned when they heard everything, pondered it carefully, and gradually tasted some other tastes.
Both Surbajo and Jill Hassan grew up in China, and they are used to a life of rich clothes and good food. What is the result? They should have inherited their father's will, but instead stood on the opposite side of reform.
Is this just a sarcasm? I am afraid that for the old Duke, it is more of a lesson.
If you think about it this way, it would be an intriguing thing to send Elena to the Charles Federation for a study tour. As a duke, he has many ways to hide the existence of his illegitimate daughter. You must know that the current world background is the cosmic sea, not the In the global village, it is easy to hide the existence of one or two people.
Why did he let people know about Elena's existence? Why did she go on a study tour to the Charles Federation instead of Kehanos, the capital of the United Kingdom of Turanx, not the Sauron Empire, or the Republic of Date?
"Could it be that... the Duke did this to train Elena to be his successor?"
Congreve didn't expect Kurobakino to be bought by God's armed forces and use such means to harm him. If it wasn't like this, he would have enough time to wait until Elena came of age.
She grew up in the Charles Federation, and she accepted the values of advocating democracy and freedom. After she grows up, she will definitely become his unswerving supporter, and the heir of the will to reform will take control of the latest chapter. And because of her illegitimate daughter's background, she will be squeezed out by the stubborn forces of the Kenar family, gain the sympathy of the public, and at the same time unite the hearts of the people.
Since the old duke dared to touch the core interests of the noble class and carry out reforms, he must also dare to make a fuss about the issue of heirs. In the future, Elena will grow rapidly under his escort, gradually surpassing Surbacho and Jill Hassan. Fight and kill those opposition elders, and then take full control of the duchy.
It's a pity that he died suddenly, and he didn't have time to leave a few words. Even their confidants and generals didn't know the deep meaning of this series of actions. At this moment, he was awakened by Tang Fang. Suddenly there is a feeling of seeing the sun behind the clouds.
It turns out... the old duke had already made preparations.
If Congreve was their backbone before, then now they have to add an "idol" aura.
As for Captain Tang, no matter if it's Stanbel or Creston, I've been thinking about it. I think the word "little monster" is very appropriate to describe it.
Knowing that Elena is Congreve's secretly groomed successor, the two seem to have received a shot of chicken blood, and their spirits are even higher, because it is not only the continuation of the old Duke's will, but also the light of reform and hope.
Creston suddenly showed a worried expression: "Eileen is only 15 years old now, isn't she a little younger?"
Tang Fang said: "It's not too young, you can get married in the Monya Empire."
Creston thought for a while and asked, "As far as I know, you're not married yet."
"You want to arrange a marriage?"
Tang Fang said loudly: "This is a crime!"
"Hahahaha." The wrinkles on the smiling faces of the two old guys kept trembling, and Creston continued to tease him: "You are not happy that you can't find a good thing with a lantern."
"I don't like little girls."
Stumble followed up and joked: "You can wait for her to grow up. It will take two or three years, soon."
He looked at the two of them with a very unhappy expression, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you selling products?"
"Don't dare, dare not." Creston said with a smile: "We are hugging thighs."
Tang Fangzhen looked down at his thighs, then counted with his fingers, and said seriously: "I'm sorry, the tickets for sitting are sold out, do you want standing tickets?"
Creston seemed to be addicted to playing with him, shook his head and said, "As a young lady, I have to go first class no matter what."
Tang Fang Yizheng said: "You are shameless."
Stanbell hugged his stomach and laughed. [800] I don't want to listen to the nonsense between the two, so I changed the topic back to the right track: "Do you think Miss will agree to come back?"
Creston said: "It's not a big problem. Lieutenant General Carter should be more familiar with Miss's situation."
Stanbel nodded, and turned his attention to Tang Fang again: "There are two other questions. When will we send troops to 'Josena'? Will we cause Anthem Will's dissatisfaction if he doesn't recognize Elena? The identity of the lady. What should I do if I insist on sending troops to suppress the rebellion? You know, although the princes of the United Kingdom of Turanx have a high degree of autonomy in their territories, the king has no right to intervene in the internal affairs of the princes' territories, but if the majority of the seats in the joint council agree, It will change from the Dukedom's internal affairs to a state affairs."
"If Surbagio, Amanda and others are still alive, the situation may be better. Unfortunately, the subordinate officers are now colluding with outsiders to rebel against the lord. Even if Prince Henrietta is involved, it may not help."
Steinbel's question is also the voice of Creston, just like the joke just now, it seems to be a joke, but it is not a true portrayal of their psychological activities.
Regardless of the fact that the battle of "Aladale" ended with the victory of the reformists, such a victory is actually meaningless. If divided by the geographical hierarchy of the Earth's era, "Aladale" is only a small town, as long as the joint council Through the sanctions resolution, even if only one-third of the princes voted in favor, Anthem Will can use the royal fleet to send troops to suppress the devil's apprentice.
The mere Obsidian Fleet, as well as the incomplete Amber Fleet and the "Aradelle" garrison naval fleet, faced the crusade against Hymn Will's Legion at all.
So "hugging the thigh" was not a joke, they had no other choice but to cry and hug Captain Tang's thigh, so as to have a chance to survive.
As a force capable of rivaling mixed battleships, and as a solid ally of Prince Henrietta, he has enough capital to give Anthem Will the middle finger and scold f,,,ass.
Tang Fang was actually very speechless, with the same feeling and the same taste.
He is always somehow involved in various political struggles, and then confronts various gods.
Saving a person provoked the armed forces of God, stealing the wisdom core encountered a phagocytosis, attacking "Golding" and colliding with a hybrid battleship, and now he is facing the danger of an arranged marriage and the helplessness of being hugged.
Good people do it to the end and send Buddha to the West. This sentence is easy to say, but it is not easy to actually do it.
"Aradelle"'s ass is not easy to wipe...
When you think about it, time is really a god. A few months ago, he was plotted by a small character like Wei Haitao and framed by Francis. A few months later, he actually held a chess piece. Play against the likes of Henrietta and Psalmwell.
"Ah!" He sighed heavily, thinking that there is a definite plan in the dark.
He blew up Congreve's body and stole the wisdom core, which indirectly led to the beheading of Meng Haoyu, McDowell and others.
He owed something to the old prince, something to the reformers.
Now facing the post-war "Aradelle". How to help people like Stumble and Creston get out of the predicament, and how to make the reform of the dukedom continue, since he chose to start well and end well, he had to shoulder such a heavy burden.
"There is no rush to send troops to 'Josena'."
"No rush?" Creston disagreed: "I think it's best to attack immediately, before the diehards can react and catch them off guard, completely controlling the entire duchy."
The Josena star system is very close to the Aladale star system, less than 4 light-years. If you decide to attack, you can take "Josena" within a week.
Creston is worried that if it continues to drag on, the remnants of the die-hard members of the Kenar family will borrow troops from nearby princes. As a result, it is bound to fall into passiveness.
Stembel agrees: "I also think it should be done sooner rather than later."
Tang Fang said: "It's okay, it's just to give them a chance to breathe. It's best for the entire United Kingdom of Turanx to know about the Duchy of Kenar."
"What the hell are you planning?"
Creston is impatient, he knew that the little fox opposite must be playing tricks.
"When the time is right, I will assign Behemoth to assist you in attacking 'Josena'."
He said slowly: "The premise is that everything must be obeyed by me."
The deputy commander is very excited, there are biological warships joining, not to mention that "Josena" only has a garrison naval fleet consisting of 500 warships, even if the diehards really borrowed the Arctic Wind Fleet from the Marquis Robinson who has always been friendly with them Assisting in the defense, facing the biological battleship that ruined the Evil Night Army, the end of the Edward Fleet. It is the future portrayal of the "Josena" defenders.
Compared with Creston, Stanbel is more stable. He didn't waste too much energy on the news of the biological battleship participating in the battle, but focused on Tang Fang's last sentence --- "The premise is that there must be All follow my orders, alternative medicine."
What does this sentence represent? He wants to fully intervene in the internal and external affairs of the Duchy of Kenar. In other words, Captain Tang had already lifted up his trousers, revealing his thick, hairy thighs, just waiting for them to pounce on them.
"We listen to you in everything."
Creston came to his senses when he heard the words, nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, we all listen to you."
If replaced by other young people. The deputy commander would have kicked him long ago and scolded: "Get out!" Maybe the guards should lock up the guy who speaks outrageous words for a few days, so that he can have a good understanding of life.
Facing Captain Tang, even though the two of them are old enough to be his grandfather, they dare not rely on their elders in the slightest.
That guy is simply a genius, the things in his head are enough to stun straight-hearted warriors like them a thousand times, but he holds a sword of judgment with full force value in his hand, what kind of deputy commander of the garrison navy, what kind of major general, middle General, in front of him, he is no different from ordinary civilians.
After Congreve's death, the reformers were leaderless, some of them were killed by Sulbagio, and some were recruited. Except for a few of their veterans, there were not many available people.
Even if Sulbajo, Amanda, Jill Hassan and others are dead, the entire Edward fleet is wiped out, and the hostile forces of "Aradelle" are wiped out, but from the perspective of the overall situation, it can be said that they are besieged on all sides and have no future at all. .
At such a critical moment, Captain Tang stretched out a thigh. They were stupid to refuse, idiots to refuse, and two hundred and five to maintain their identity.
In order for their own people to survive, for Eileen to inherit the duchy, and for the reform to continue, they chose to obey without hesitation.
They knew that the foolish-looking guy on the other side didn't care about duchies at all, or in other words, he didn't care about power, wealth, etc. at all. The heart is doing things.
It is not shameful to bow your head to such a person, even if he is a young man of the grandchildren's generation.
It is an honor for those who are sincere in their hearts.
"The first priority now is to bring Miss Elena back from the Charles Federation. The second is the aftermath of 'Aradelle'. Especially the repair and maintenance of military facilities and battleships, as well as comfort measures for the people of 'Adia' , Disposal of the wounded and a series of tasks."
"Oh. By the way, those nobles and envoys who came to attend the old duke's funeral must be politely repatriated immediately."
Stumble pondered for a moment, showing a embarrassed expression: "Other things are easy to handle, only the matter of bringing Miss Elena back from the Charles Federation is a bit difficult, even if she agrees to return to the United Kingdom of Turanx to inherit the title. Immediately take the most It will take more than a month for the express shuttle to return to China, will this have some adverse effects on your plan?"
He doesn't know Tang Fang's specific plan, but he knows that more than one month is enough time for Praisewell to hold a joint meeting, pass the counter-insurgency resolution, and drive the crusade fleet to the gate of the Aladale star system.
"I will send Behemoth to help you."
"Bechymos?" Creston showed a strange expression, hesitant to speak.
As we all know, the larger the ship, the greater the load on the warp drive, generally speaking. The warp speed level of a large ship is much lower than that of a small ship. The Behemoth body is 10 kilometers long. How fast can it go? Can it be faster than a high-speed shuttle?
Furthermore, Elena is one-way from the Charles Federation to the United Kingdom of Turanx. If Bechymos picks her up, it will be a two-way trip. The distance is doubled, and the time consumption will naturally increase.
In the end, picking someone up with someone as big as Behemoth is kind of... no. It's not a little bit, it's very arrogant. Even if the relationship between the Charles Federation and the Star Alliance is good, I'm afraid Captain Tang will not be happy about doing this.
Of course, Tang Fang would not talk nonsense with him, and said, "Go and arrange for the reception staff. My younger brother Tang Lin will go with you."
Behemoth's warp level can reach up to 9.8. Even if it is a two-way trip, it should be able to control the voyage to about 20 days, which is much faster than Steinbel's so-called high-speed shuttle.
As for whether it is too ostentatious to do so, it is not a big problem. After arriving in Charles Federation, Behemoth can wait in deep space. Use the Special Operations Transport Vessel as a means of short-distance passenger transportation, which is both stealthy and fast.
"What are you still doing?"
Seeing Clayton's hesitation, he frowned and reminded.
The deputy commander shuddered, and stood up with a swish, his speed was comparable to that of a young man. Although he didn't know Tang Fang's plan, he clearly remembered the conversation just now, so he walked out of the conference room without any hesitation, and arranged for suitable personnel to go to Charles Federation to pick up Elena.
"Could you stop doing that? Curiosity is torture," Stembell said.
He didn't say when to send troops, he didn't say how to deal with Anthem Will, and he still didn't say what cards Behemoth had. For a normal person, doubts are inevitable.
"I'm a low-key person."
Stanbel has the urge to strangle him to death. Is there any difference between such a low-key and publicity?
Tang Fang suddenly changed the subject: "The battle with the hybrid battleship is not cheap, and I need a lot of zero elements."
Steinbel regained his composure: "There are about 300 tons of zero element stocks in the energy storage warehouse at Golding Naval Port."
"Only 300 tons?"
"Only... 300 tons?" Steinbel was speechless for a while: "If it's not enough, the Obsidian Fleet may be able to subsidize some, and 100 tons should be no problem. If it's not enough, it can only be obtained from government agencies at various levels in 'Aitia' and mineral dealers." Tune."
Thinking of a military hub like "Mubarak", there are nearly 4,000 warships stationed in the Eye Army, and the zero element reserves are only a little over 1,000 tons. "Aradelle", as the hinterland of the United Kingdom of Turanx, can have 500 tons of zero element reserves Nature is a reasonable thing.
Before the start of the battle, producing a hundred Wraith fighters and a certain number of Devourers and Sky Guards consumes tens of thousands of gas resources. Now the gas value in the system is less than 250,000. After activating the hidden elements, the unlocking process of Bechymos is exactly the same as that of Bechymos. God knows how much it will cost after unlocking. Will it need 10 million crystals and 10 million gas like its predecessors.
He needs zero elements, a lot of zero elements, but he felt sorry for letting him empty the zero element inventory of the Aladale star system. After thinking for a moment, he decided to take a step back: "Help me prepare 200 tons of zero elements."
Steinbel said simply, "No problem."
As long as he can save "Aradelle" from the crisis, let alone 200 tons of zero elements, even if he removes all the zero element stocks in the military port, no one will chew his tongue.
Tang Fang got up and stretched his waist, and said: "The 'Morning Star' will receive Ling Su in a while, and I will arrange for Tang Lin to go to Bechymos to wait for orders. After Creston chooses the envoy, he can directly drive the shuttle to go there." Bechymos will meet him and leave immediately for the Charles Federation."
"Oh, and help me find a comfortable room."
"I'm going to have the guest room tidy right away," Stembell said.
Tang Fang said "Thank you", then turned and walked out the door.
The battle against the mixed warship was really too hard, both physically and mentally, he was a bit overwhelmed, and he felt exhausted. The one thing he wanted most now was to have a comfortable big bed so that he could have a good sleep. (To be continued.)
