Chapter 249: Fighter Plane Appears
A female guard came behind Monica and saluted: "Your Majesty, General Cochin is here."
Monica retracted her thoughts, turned around, and saw Kochi in military uniform coming not far in front of her. Seeing a very stunning look on his face, as if he was so overwhelmed by her, Monica couldn't help but feel proud.
But I didn't know what I suddenly thought of, but I frowned slightly, looking a little melancholy.
Kochin came back from his surprise and immediately said to Monica: "Your Majesty!" He looked very respectful and almost crawled to Monica's feet and licked her feet.
Monica asked, "General Kochi comes here at this time. Is there any urgent military report?"
Kochin stood up and said excitedly: "I just received a message from a spy hidden in Crete. The Han emperor has ordered the army to attack. The army marched straight towards Catanzaro, and I guess he had learned the news that our navy was gathering there."
An excitement flashed in Monica's eyes, and then she thought, "Is he trying to start first?"
Ke Qin nodded and said, "It should be just like Her Majesty the Queen said. According to the spy's incoming, the enemy attacked secretly at night in the night. I guess he wanted to catch us off guard and defeat our navy in one fell swoop.
Humph, but they must have never expected that we would ambush the spies in the city of Chania, and their every move was under our surveillance. This attack happened to provide us with fighter planes."
Monica paced up and asked Cochin, "What do you think?"
Kochin had already thought of a vain case, and after hearing this, he immediately said: "Although the enemy has many ships, there are no real warships and no naval forces,
They must have wanted to launch a landing battle while Donbas and the others were not aware of it and defeat them on land.
So it is very easy to deal with them, and there is no need to mobilize the army to support Catanzaro. You just need to inform Donbas and the others of the news immediately and make them attack immediately.
On the sea, the Han people without real naval forces could not confront the Venetian naval forces and the Sicilian naval forces with the cannons mounted on the ships alone.
With the power of 40,000 naval troops, they can definitely be defeated and wiped out in one fell swoop! They have no way to escape on the sea, and the annihilation of the entire army is inevitable!
This time, their active attack was as if they were summoned by the God of Death. I am afraid that not many people will be able to go back alive!
If we can take this opportunity to capture the Han emperor, then we can completely turn the situation around!
The Han Dynasty is different from ours. With their emperor in their hands, we can threaten all the Han Dynasty people to withdraw from the Mediterranean region. We can recover the lost land without bloodshed! Her Majesty the Empress will not be far away to revive the mighty Roman spirit!”
When Monica heard his words, her face couldn't help but show an excited expression. She calmed down and thought for a moment, thinking about it. She felt that Kochin's words were very reasonable, so she said to the female soldier beside her: "Tell Donbas immediately about this situation and let him attack!"
Catanzaro, a small coastal town located in the northeast corner of Italy, has become very noisy and lively now because the 30,000 naval forces from Venice and 10,000 naval forces from Sicily are gathered here.
Baron Pogir of Catanzaro came to the barracks next to the city.
This Bogil, who was about fifty years old, frowned tightly, as if he had a heavy heart.
Passing through the barracks, walking to the big tent located in the middle of the barracks, the follower stayed outside, and he walked into the big tent by himself.
As soon as I entered the tent, I saw several generals who were discussing the matter. I immediately saluted to the snow-white and extraordinary veteran sitting at the top and said, "Herdes-Earl Dumbas, I have transported all the local reserved food as you ask."
Everyone immediately stopped discussing and looked at Bogil. Donbas smiled with satisfaction: "Very good! Lord Baron has done a good job! I think Your Majesty will be very satisfied with your performance!"
Pogil smiled bitterly and said nothing.
Donbas asked, “How much food and supplies have you transported?”
Pogil replied: "In total, fifty carts of food and ten carts of meat."
Donbas immediately frowned and said unhappily: "Sir Baron, our 40,000 troops are here. You just transported us such a little food and grass. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
When Bogil heard this, he couldn't help but feel angry and said in a voice: "Hissergeant, these foods and meat are all our reserves. Now they are all taken out. What else are you not satisfied with?"
Donbas snorted and said coldly: "We are fighting for the empire, it's fine if you sit and enjoy the fruits. Now you are just asking you to provide the army's food and supplies, and you have to find excuses to shirk it!
Are you worthy of the army fighting on the front line? Are you worthy of Her Majesty the Queen?"
Bogil clearly felt the anger and chill emitted from the other party, and couldn't help but feel shocked.
He quickly lowered his head and said, "Your Earl! It's not that we are unwilling to provide the needs of the army, but because Catanzaro has limited power and cannot afford it! The food and meat I brought are indeed all the reserves in the city!..."
Donbas waved his hand impatiently and said in a deep voice: "You don't need to make excuses for me! Although Catanzaro is not big, it is a famous and prosperous place in the entire Roman Empire! How could it be impossible for the 40,000 troops to be able to take out the food and grass?
If you, the baron, can't take it out, go to collect it from the public. I will only give you three days, but I can't get the amount I need at that time, so I will send the army to get it myself. Do you understand?"
Bogil was frightened and wanted to say something, but felt extremely bitter and could not say anything. He bowed to Donbas, turned around and left silently.
When the entourage saw Pogill coming out, he quickly met him. Seeing that his face looked ugly as if he was dead, he couldn't help but feel a sudden blow and asked quickly: "Sir Baron, did that count say what did that count say?"
Pogil smiled bitterly and said, "He limits us to take out the amount he needs within three days. If we can't take it out, he will send troops into the city to get it..."
The entourage changed his face and couldn't help but say, "But we have taken out all our reserves!"
Pogil said: "Your Excellency the Earl means to ask us to collect from the residents."
The entourage frowned and showed an indignation, and could not help but say, "In recent years, everyone has been using their own money and food to support the empire, and now they are very poor.
If you ask them to take out their money and food, will they still tell them to survive?"
