Heroes of Silver Moon - Chapter 758: : comeback
As the prime minister of the cabinet, Grand Duke Gaseppe came to see him, and Simon immediately summoned him and said with a smile: “What’s the matter with my grandfather?”
Grand Duke Gaseppe asked solemnly: “Your Majesty, I heard that you are going to launch a war recently!”
Simon nodded bluntly: “It is true, why, grandpa has a different view on this?”
Grand Duke Gaspe shook his head and sighed, “What can I think? The other ministers don’t really want to provoke disputes.”
Simon frowned slightly, and said slowly: “Oh? Then what do they think?”
Grand Duke Gaseppe pulled out a chair and sat in front of Simon, saying: “Not only the ministers, but also the nobles and the people are against this war.
In their view, since we finally reached an armistice agreement with the empire, we should honestly shrink back to our homeland and not continue to provoke the empire.
And unlike previous defensive wars, this war was initiated by ourselves, and an aggressive war without any reason is morally unreasonable. ”
While listening, Simon kept tapping the desk with his right index finger, falling into deep thought.
At this time, the attendant brought a cup of black tea to the two of them. Grand Duke Gasepe didn’t dare to disturb the king’s thinking, so he took the black tea and tasted it carefully.
After thinking for a long time, Simon sighed, stood up and looked out the window with a little sadness: “Grandfather, I hope you can understand that the current peace of the Silver Moon Kingdom is just an illusion.
The empire is willing to cease war with us not because they are afraid of our strength, but because they have stronger enemies, and it is not worth the loss to continue to deal with us.
And once the empire is withdrawn, what awaits us will only be the destruction of the country and family!
I started this war not out of ambition or hatred, but just to fight for future living space for the Silver Moon Kingdom! ”
Grand Duke Gaseppe put down his teacup and said solemnly: “I understand all this, but how do you convince the ministers and nobles?”
Simon was silent for a long time, and said with a gloomy face: “The military department is directly loyal to the king. Whether to start a war is up to the king. The opinions of the cabinet and nobles are not important!”
Grand Duke Gaseppe continued to ask: “What about the people? How do you convince your citizens to willingly participate in this unjust war? If you don’t give them an acceptable explanation, you will definitely be labeled as bloodthirsty and warlike.” Labels, this has a huge impact on your reputation!”
Simon replied angrily: “I can’t give them any explanation, because the facts are there!”
Yes, the facts are right there, unlike the previous times when foreign enemies invaded the Silvermoon Kingdom, this time it was the Silvermoon Kingdom that took the initiative to attack other countries.
This kind of immoral war is destined to fail to gain the understanding and support of the people, but the long-term diplomatic blockade of the empire has greatly restricted the development plan of the Silver Moon Kingdom.
If this continues, he can’t let the Silver Moon Kingdom develop to the point where even the empire dare not provoke it before the empire shifts its target of struggle.
Therefore, this battle, he must fight, and he has to fight!
Seeing the emotional Simon, Grand Duke Gaseppe was silent for a moment, stood up and said: “Well, since you have made up your mind, the cabinet will do its best to publicize the necessity of this war to the public!”
Watching Grand Duke Gaseppe leave, Simon slammed his fist on the desk and cursed angrily in a low voice: “A group of short-sighted and ungrateful idiots!”
The incomprehension of the Chinese made him feel chilled. They thought, who was the king launching this war for?
At this moment, Simon was extremely fortunate that Silvermoon Kingdom was still a dictatorship, at least he could be a dictator without any scruples.
…
The aloof human gods looked at the mundane.
A large-scale fleet slowly sailed out of the country that had been shrouded in fog and headed towards the Blue Kingdom.
The God of Glory looked at the God of Power, and said expressionlessly, “Do you want to remind the Regent?”
The God of Power sneered: “Hasn’t the Regent been suppressing the Temple of Gods recently? If that’s the case, then let him handle this matter himself!”
Looking at the increasingly fierce human civil war below, the God of Knights showed a trace of sadness on his brows, but remained silent as always.
Just like the elves in the past, power and desire have already corrupted the current human beings. This is no longer an era of human beings huddled together for warmth and united!
As the oldest **** among the human gods, the God of Knights was quite heartbroken by this, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Because, the era that belongs to him has long passed…
Most of the mundane knights have betrayed their oaths and beliefs, and succumbed to power and money. Now is the age of the God of Power!
…
The sound of gunfire woke up the sleeping Blue Kingdom. Milos hurriedly dressed and paced back and forth anxiously in the palace.
After a long time, the attendant who went to inquire about the news came back with a panicked look and reported: “Your Majesty, it is the fleet of the Silvermoon Kingdom, and the Silvermoon Kingdom has attacked our port!”
The Blue Kingdom is a country that focuses on commercial activities, especially maritime trade, so the capital is a city connected to a seaport.
This attack of the Silver Moon Kingdom undoubtedly directly pierced the heart of the Blue Kingdom!
Milos was full of disbelief, and murmured: “Silver Moon Kingdom? How come? We have no grudges with them in the past, and we have no grudges today! Why did they attack us?!”
When the empire imposed a diplomatic blockade on the Silvermoon Kingdom, it was the Blue Kingdom that allowed and acquiesced to the smuggling activities of the Silvermoon Kingdom, which allowed the Silvermoon Kingdom to obtain urgently needed supplies and overcome difficulties time and time again.
But why, when the Yinyue King, who had been silent for a long time, made a move, they were the first to hit them? !
Relieved from the astonishment, Milos pretended to be calm and asked: “What is the size of the Silvermoon Kingdom’s fleet? What is the current battle situation?”
The attendant replied bitterly: “Your Majesty, it’s too dark to see their size clearly, but when I came, the guard fleet at the port was almost wiped out.”
Milos’ heart trembled violently, and he slumped on the bed weakly. After a long time, he said bitterly, “Send someone to contact the people of the Silver Moon Kingdom, and ask them what they want to do?!”
The servant hastily carried out the king’s order.
After a long time, Milos fell into a deep silence when the news brought back by the attendant.
The Silvermoon Kingdom has fully occupied the port, and the Silvermoon King is waiting for him in front of Princess Shanina’s tomb!
…
The sky was slightly bright, and the streets of Bilan Wangdu were deserted.
The sound of gunfire and shouts of killing last night made the people realize that something big must happen, so they hid at home and dared not go out.
Even if there are brave people who dare to show their heads, they will quickly shrink their heads back after seeing the soldiers of the Silver Moon Kingdom in neat military uniforms on the street with their faces full of fear.
Under the sharp eyes of the soldiers of the Silver Moon Kingdom, Milos led a team of guards and entered the royal cemetery.
And Simon was standing in front of a cold tombstone, waiting for him quietly. Under that calm face, there seemed to be endless anger hidden, ready to explode at any time!
The fate of this princess is very pitiful. Even after death, she will continue to be used.
Yes, in order to appease the emotions of the people, in the propaganda of the cabinet, this war was launched in the name of revenge for Princess Shanina.
Sensing the arrival of Milos, Simon stared at the tombstone and said slowly: “I don’t have much contact with Princess Shanina, but I know that she is a kind and cheerful woman, a gentle and virtuous wife, An admirable princess…”
Milos lowered his head in shame and murmured, “Sorry!”
“What’s the use of apologizing to me, she’s dead!”
Simon burst out suddenly, his eyes were red, he turned around and slapped Milos to the ground: “We married our most beloved princess to you, but you actually killed her!”
Seeing the king being beaten, the guards immediately prepared to draw their weapons, but in the next second, soldiers from the Silver Moon Kingdom aimed their guns at them.
With tears in his eyes, Milos waved his hand to stop the behavior of the guards, and wailed: “I know I’m sorry for her, but I don’t have your talent, and the Blue Kingdom can’t resist the empire. What do you want me to do? What can I do?!”
Hiding his painful palm behind his back, Simon’s heart trembled, he didn’t dare to underestimate the man in front of him anymore, but he still sneered coldly as if nothing had happened: “Coward! Since you dare not resist the empire, let me avenge our princess , sign this trade agreement for me!”
After finishing speaking, an attendant took out an agreement and handed it to Milos.
Milos stopped his tears, glanced roughly at the agreement, and narrowed his eyes.
The main content of this trade agreement is to unconditionally open all the ports of the Blue Kingdom, and not to stop all commercial activities of the Silver Moon Kingdom.
In an instant, Milos understood the true intention of the Silver Moon King. He wanted to break the diplomatic blockade of the empire.
It is almost certain that the attack on the Blue Kingdom is only the first step, and more coastal countries will be attacked in the future, until the empire comes forward to solve this matter.
Of course, it is also possible that the empire was settled by the Silvermoon Kingdom…
But who cares! Anyway, it has no effect on the Blue Kingdom…
Not right, there are still some impacts, maybe we can use this to rearrange the layout…
Rolling his eyes again and again, Milos had many thoughts in his mind, and then he reluctantly signed the trade agreement.
After withdrawing the agreement, Simon snorted coldly, ignored the Beast King, turned around and walked towards the fleet with the guards.
He knew very well that Milos was just a coward and an enforcer, and the real culprit who murdered Princess Shanina had always been the Empire!
Back on the fleet, Guy leaned over and asked, “What do you think of this Blue King?”
Simon looked at his palm, shook his head and said, “He is a troublesome character with a deep mind!”
He, a legendary middle-ranker, tried his best to slap a guy who was still a mortal on the surface, and in the end he hurt his hand from shaking, it was ridiculous!
Although I don’t know how many cards and layouts this King of Blue has hidden, but so far, the Kingdom of Blue is still an ally that can be won…
