"Da, da, da..." The sound of rapid footsteps echoed in the beautifully decorated corridor. The beautiful servant with a stern face, holding a stack of messages, hurried through the corridor and opened the door at the end.
She walked to the bedside and reported to the beautiful red-haired woman hugging each other on the bed: "Sir, the news just confirmed... Dorne defeated the Kingdom of Shiron and the Kingdom of Talon."
The woman lazily pulled out her arms from under her naked female companion, grabbed her fluffy red hair, and asked in a long voice: "So, the news that came out a few days ago is true.
?”
Previously, news did come that the Kingdom of Dorne had achieved a complete victory and defeated the two kingdoms of Shiron and Taron.
But this news was not confirmed, and it was too unbelievable. In the end, Sophia could only choose to wait for the real, confirmed news to arrive.
Now, the news has come.
The maid nodded slightly and began to report: "Yes, sir! It has been confirmed that the fleet of the Talon Kingdom has indeed been completely wiped out."
Because the fleet battle took place at sea, and the war blocked the message transmission channel from Rewind Port, this news was not confirmed until now and was sent to Sophia.
There is no way, the lagging intelligence system has always been like this, and people in this era are used to the speed of news dissemination.
On the contrary, the telegram message from Bunas was faster and more convenient - it's just that Sofia couldn't believe the information from a single channel, especially the information from a single channel from the enemy.
As a decision-maker, she is worried that the Datang Group will cheat and directly spread false news, which will affect her decision-making and deployment here.
The maid continued: "The news came from Bunas, where a large number of slaves have appeared and were escorted to Beiling. Among these slaves, there are sailors from the Talon Kingdom."
Sophia got up from the bed, put on a silky nightgown, pulled over a chair, and sat on it, showing off her exquisite curves: "It's really... it makes people a little unwilling. If there's anything else, let's continue."
The naval fleet was destroyed, and the Kingdom of Talon was basically out of the war. Even if the Kingdom of Dorne on the ground did not attack it, it would not be able to resist the Tang Group's fleet.
Therefore, it is only a matter of time before this kingdom falls to the Tang Dynasty, or is completely annexed by the kingdom controlled by the Tang Dynasty.
"In addition, the 50,000-strong ground troops of the Kingdom of Shiron all surrendered to Dorne and became prisoners. If nothing else happens, the news that the army of the Kingdom of Talon was defeated should be true." The maid need not be sad.
In a calm tone of displeasure, he briefly introduced the story of the Battle of Dorne.
This includes a series of operations by the two heroes of Dorne. Although it is not accurate and detailed, the information obtained from the defeated soldiers from the Kingdom of Talon can still corroborate some things.
At least, the outcome of this battle was decided very quickly. While the Kingdom of Tarun's navy was completely defeated, the army also took a turn for the worse...
After listening to her maid, or rather her right-hand assistant, report this, Sophia's face became less pretty.
Originally, she was in a pretty good mood these days, because she hooked up with a baroness again, and the two were "passionately in love", so naturally they were very charming.
Unfortunately, bad news about this war came one after another. Until now, Sofia felt that Cyric's council was completely unable to control the final outcome.
Therefore, she angrily grabbed a perfume bottle and threw it to the ground, letting it roll to the corner of the room: "...I thought about defeat, but I never thought...that the defeat would be so fast and so miserably."
"Sir..." The woman on the bed, who was awakened by the sound, exclaimed.
"There is some trouble in business! It's okay!" Sophia said without looking back. The woman didn't dare to ask any more questions. She hurriedly put on her underwear and ran out of the bedroom holding other clothes.
"My lord!" After the woman left, the maid continued to speak.
Sophia waved her hand: "I'm fine! I just have a headache... The current situation is actually very unfavorable to us."
She got up angrily and walked into the magnificent home, gnashing her teeth and muttering in a low voice: "We almost lost the five kingdoms that were completely controlled by the Datang Group, and the current national power of these five kingdoms is already very strong.
.”
The five countries of the Trade Alliance, which have almost completely separated from Cyric's control, are indeed growing in national strength.
Even the Pinewood Kingdom, which was the last to join and whose national strength is not strong, is completing its own industrial revolution because it has purchased a large amount of machinery and equipment.
Not to mention the Poplar Kingdom, which annexed most of the Kingdom of Gales, and the four kingdoms of Sussus, Leyte, and Dorne, which also annexed neighboring countries.
With Tang Mo's direct support or indirect support, these kingdoms have begun to absorb the dividends of the war and began to improve their own systems, gradually becoming kingdoms with backward systems and transforming into more advanced and powerful capitalist empires.
Once these countries complete the restructuring of their internal affairs, they will gain the potential to crush their surrounding neighbors, and at the same time, the influence of the Cyric Consortium will be further weakened.
"In addition, we have now actually lost the Kingdom of Gemelin, Kingdom of Shiron and Kingdom of Talon... As for the Kingdom of Elm and Redwood... and the Kingdom of Farak... then it depends on whether we can
It's working..." Sophia, with an ugly face, walked around her bedroom.
"Sir, be careful with the glass..." Worried that barefoot Sophia would be injured by the fragments of the perfume bottle, the maid warned.
"Have someone clean it up!" Sophia was startled, then walked to the balcony barefoot, opened the large French window, and walked to the railing.
Along the way, she has been thinking about how to operate so that the remaining three countries can be preserved as much as possible, or at least not be swallowed up by the Datang Group.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As a result, after thinking for a long time, she could not come up with any good solution. Finally, she cursed in annoyance: "Damn it, I lost it again all of a sudden.
With the control of the three kingdoms, we are losing a lot of market! In the future, we will be increasingly unable to shake the opponent of Datang Group."
"Then, Lady Sophia, what should we do next?" The maid had never encountered such a difficult problem before, so she could only ask her master honestly.
In fact, she can and has the right to handle some small things by herself - however, something unexpected happened in this situation recently. She found that she could no longer handle any problems with Datang Group and could only leave them to Sophia.
Solved it myself.
"There is no good solution! Go to Bunas for me." Sophia thought about it, and after about a minute of silence, she suddenly spoke to her confidant.
"Huh?" The maid was stunned, because she really hadn't gone out to perform any tasks for a long time. Normal opponents didn't need it, and it wasn't her turn to take action personally.
Under normal circumstances, one person in charge of Cyric can handle problems that occur in a kingdom. The Cyric consortium is so large that there is no need for people on the council to deal with trivial issues.
But now, it seems... it's not a so-called normal situation.
Sophia looked at her most capable subordinate and ordered: "Have a good talk with that Tang Mo and tell him that the Cyric Consortium is not monolithic and there are still people who are willing to have a serious talk with him..."
She knew that she didn't need to elaborate, and her subordinates would understand what she meant. So, she waited for a few seconds to let her subordinates adjust to the sudden decision to go on a business trip, and then continued: "Then, find a way to make him understand that money
...One person can't make enough money. Sometimes, only with a rival can you make better money."
"What do you mean?" The maid probably understood what Sophia meant, but she still had to confirm the details with her master.
Sophia smiled, indescribably beautiful. This smile contained confidence and pride, which made the maid extremely obsessed: "I don't mind becoming his opponent! A rival who cooperates secretly and competes on the surface! As long as I can make money, I will
You can transfer part of the profits..."
"So, what do we want?" The maid obviously understood what Sophia meant, so she asked.
"Warships! Brand new warships, steel warships! And merchant ships! For this, I can secretly help and cede the Elm Kingdom, Redwood Kingdom, and Falak Kingdom to the Datang Group."
"What if he doesn't agree?" the maid asked worriedly.
Sophia's face turned cold, and she narrowed her eyes and answered the maid's question coldly: "If he doesn't agree, then we can only continue to waste it, until Datang Group's supplies are tight, and we ourselves are in pieces, and both sides will lose.
Under this... no one can get the benefits."
"But..." The maid looked at Sophia worriedly.
She knew that dragging on would require the capital to drag on. Once the Datang Group could quickly deal with the remaining participating countries, the initiative would be completely transferred to the Datang Group.
Therefore, the basis of the negotiations seems to be based on the issue of whether the war can continue. If the war ends, then Cyric wants new warship technology, or wants the ocean, which can only be nonsense.
Sophia looked into the distance, sighed helplessly, calmed down her coldness, and said, "I know! It depends on whether the Elm Kingdom, the Mahogany Kingdom, and the Falak Kingdom can withstand what he will do next...
…Attacked!”
"Go!" After a few seconds of silence, Sofia looked at the rising sun in the distance and said, "When you get to Bunas, call me back."
"Yes! I understand!" The maid bowed slightly and then exited the room.
