Chapter 405 A God-given Opportunity (14 guaranteed, please subscribe!)
Abel stayed in the room, checking the intelligence collected by his subordinates.
Well, there's basically nothing that can be used.
Just when he was at a loss and couldn't find a good entry point, one after another good news hit his face.
First, the Kingdom of Warm Sun and Kingdom of Cold Moon were attacked by unknown persons, and the warehouses where arms were stored in both countries were detonated.
Then a large number of pirates who got the news from nowhere landed on Sendolai, targeting these two countries.
Although the two countries that have lost their arms reserves have not completely lost their ability to resist, they are still stretched to deal with these pirates.
After all, what these pirates are best at is bullying others and adding insult to injury.
They will not engage in head-on confrontation with the armies of the two countries, but will only conduct sneak attacks and use various despicable means to make the two countries tired of dealing with them.
Coupled with the lack of follow-up arms reserves, soldiers from the two countries often stopped firing after several rounds of exchanges of fire.
You can only fight these pirates with the "fire stick" in your hand, but it's not for nothing!
This sudden change immediately made Abel realize that an opportunity had come!
Although we still don’t know who is behind this, this opportunity should not be missed.
...
The two kings of the Warm Sun Kingdom and the Cold Moon Kingdom have already cursed angrily!
If at the beginning, they really didn't know who blew up their arsenal, and they all suspected that it was the other party.
So when the familiar pirates attacked, and the suddenly disappeared Colonel Rhino stopped selling them arms, they knew who was behind it!
But what's the use of knowing?
There are not enough weapons and ammunition to arm the soldiers, and those pirates are roaming around the country committing crimes. They are so slippery that they can't kill them all even if they want to.
Innocent people lose their lives every moment.
If no solution can be found, both countries will soon exist in name only.
"Colonel Rhino still can't be contacted?" King Nuanyang VI asked his ministers calmly and confidently.
"Your Majesty, not only Colonel Rhino can't be contacted, but also the people we sent have been detained by the navy."
"These recent events are absolutely inseparable from the other party. Maybe it was directed by Colonel Rhino."
"Yes, that 'vampire cow' must be trying to force us to submit!"
"We can't let that guy lead us away anymore."
"Yes, that's right."
King Nuanyang VI nodded slightly, "According to your statement, if the other party wants to sell more arms to us, why did they choose to disappear at this time?"
"If it really makes us anxious and breaks up, is this really what the other party wants to see?"
The ministers looked at each other, "What does the King mean?"
"That Colonel Rhino wants to completely destroy our two countries."
When these words were spoken, Nuanyang Sixth had already closed his eyes in pain.
Then the ministers below exploded!
With a look of panic and anger, they started a whirlwind discussion.
"What's the reason? What's the reason for the other party to do this?"
"That Colonel Rhino is just a naval officer. We and the Cold Moon Kingdom have purchased a lot of arms from him. What good will it do to him if we are destroyed now? Who else can he sell his arms to?"
"I think this must be a misunderstanding. I would rather believe that this is a trap set up by Colonel Rhino to sell us more arms."
"I think so too. As long as we can find each other, all problems will be solved."
"We also have to buy the arms themselves. If it's a big deal, it's not a big deal to buy more."
"Bah! That's easy to say. Don't you know how tight our finances are now? Are you going to come up with the extra purchasing funds?"
"You and I are just making a suggestion, it's unreasonable!"
"Enough!"
Nuanyang VI suddenly opened his eyes and shouted away these ministers.
"We have already reached the point of life and death, and you are still here deceiving yourself and others!"
"Do you have to wait until the army of the Kingdom of Cruz invades the border before you can wake up!"
Kingdom of Kluth?
Upon hearing this name suddenly, many ministers were startled at first, and then showed horrified expressions.
Could it be said that Colonel Rhino has reached cooperation with the Kingdom of Cruz?!
If that's really the case, then everything makes sense.
Destroying the Nuan Yang and Leng Yue countries would indeed be of no benefit to Colonel Rhino.
It may be that the Kingdom of Cruz, which can annex the two countries, will receive extremely huge benefits. At that time, it only needs to divide a part of the benefits to Colonel Rhino, which will be enough to make him a lot of money.
It's even possible that the old king of Cruz promised some benefits to the other party that outsiders didn't even know about.
Otherwise, it would be almost impossible to impress that greedy rhinoceros with a small favor.
"Your Highness, is this your guess, or do you already have evidence?"
"Evidence, evidence, evidence! The troops of the Kingdom of Kluth have begun to mobilize towards the border. What more evidence do you want?"
For a moment, there was silence.
After a while, someone calmed down and stepped forward and said, "It's exactly what you said. From now on, we must prepare for the worst."
"The first priority right now is to quell the pirate troubles in the country. The problem that is currently troubling us is that we have no manpower but not enough arms and weapons."
"And Colonel Rhino has already monopolized the arms trade in Xinduolai. Even if we find a new arms dealer from outside, we may not have enough time."
Nuanyang VI nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"The second step is that we must immediately unite with the Kingdom of Cold Moon to be able to fight against the menacing Kingdom of Klus and its colluded Colonel Rhino, and even the navy led by Colonel Rhino."
Union with the Lengyue Kingdom is necessary, and no one objects to it.
Just hearing those last words made everyone feel heavy in their hearts.
After all, that’s the Navy!
Even if they have enough weapons, they may not be able to defeat them.
"Finally, we can try to use the power of mercenaries. There are some mercenaries who specialize in wars. They are very powerful and have a good reputation. However, hiring them is very expensive."
"And if we have to fight against the navy, the other party may not accept it. Even if it does, the price may not be something we can afford."
“Even if we can save the country, I’m afraid”
Nuanyang VI did not see it that way, "If the country is going to perish, do we still need to think about the future? Instead of leaving the money in the treasury to the invaders, it is better to use it all to recruit mercenaries for a last-ditch effort!"
