Chapter 749: Twenty-three. Eve (3)
"His Highness Bernard, Castile is not the crown of Saint-Esteban, it is not a territory of our country, it is an independent sovereign state."
"Yes. Your Excellency, I know."
No matter from the perspective of law or political reality, Castile is not a territory, a dependent state or territory, nor a colony, but an independent sovereign state recognized internationally. Its monarch has the right to govern freely within its territory, and no other country may interfere.
This is the basic principle of international relations. Even in the heyday of the church’s influence, the valiant Holy See had to take care of this, leaving some room for action.
"His Royal Highness, since the "Seven-Day War", the countries have kept a close eye on my country's every move with a magnifying glass."
"Yes. Yes, I know."
The second king's answer was still lukewarm, but his anger was condensing a little with the memories.
The Seventh Day War. That was the battle after the formation of Titans. Not only did that battle yield rich results, but it also changed the world’s landscape and brought a brainstorm for all the experts and generals. From that day on, Titans was shrouded in the aura of "undefeated" and "invincible", and the myth of "Invincible Titans" was widely circulated among the nations.
It was supposed to be a pleasant memory, but King Bernard did not think so.
——The victory should have been more perfect and more brilliant! ! !
Just after the war, King Bernard, like everyone else, was immersed in great joy and could not extricate himself. After calming down and thinking afterwards, he regretted it again.
The situation was good. It is not without chance to annex Castile in one fell swoop with Titan's fighting power and elite weapons. If this is done at the time, the subsequent battle for the throne will be very easy, with Castilla as the foundation of its territory, expanding the strength of Titans, backed by this army, no competitors Worth mentioning.
However, the mediation of the Pope at that time, and the increasing pressure of the countries, coupled with the opposition of the king and the prime minister, could only end up in a hurry, and Castilla was saved from the fate of the country.
That was originally his territory! At the cost of the lives of more than a thousand Titans. The food that should be enjoyed by him, the Titan coach, alone! but now. King Bernard could only watch Castilla drool.
Next, everything that happened in Castile kept humiliating him. First, Philip II attacked him personally. This is easy to understand. After such a fiasco, any monarch will be out of control. However, giving a title that is more severe than the king's "uncultivated evil"-"there is Charlieman's disease, opium, and alcohol in the brain"-still makes Bernard angry.
"The Habsburg hybrid with that forehead. Does he want to die like that?"
After hearing that comment. King Bernard smashed things on the side. Scolded while panting.
This is serious humiliation, offensive, and blasphemy.
An incompetent king who almost wanted toad to be trampled to death by Titans boots. Dare to insult him as a winner! He and his country must pay a price for this. Titans will severely teach the Castilians, teach them how to respect the strong, teach them who is the master, and finally completely wipe from the map and in fact Humiliated his kingdom of Castile.
His Highness thought so and did so. Richelieu has a lot of evidence there that Titans intervened, and even directly participated in a series of political struggles in the Kingdom of Castile, and there is a trend of getting bigger and bigger. In addition to the evidence sent by the secret agents, some of the evidence was handed over to him by the Minister of Castile. There are bizarre prints such as "Independence and prosperity of Castile, which needs to be established on the basis of the colonial year of the advanced countries", as well as rifles and bombs that were secretly delivered to the culturalists. Every piece of evidence is Point directly to the general background of Bernard.
Charlie Man was mostly silent on this matter. On the one hand, everyone has the idea of the childishness of the second king, on the other hand, everyone does not think this is a thing. But King Bernard has his plan and schedule, and his own.
"That's the case."
The brow furrowed, a sigh.
"Why did Your Highness instigate Lord Bellamy to act without authorization? Do you know what this means?"
Bernard looked directly at the old man. The old man in the red vestment was calm and calm in his tone and eyes, as if he was just asking questions instead of asking questions.
After suppressing the mockery, Bernard replied:
"Of course I know."
It will not be anything else, but a war against the Kingdom of Castile. This is what he had longed for, but it was actually what Richelieu had hoped for.
Charlemagne wanted to truly unify the human camp, and then launched a new jihad against the pagans, swept away the pagans, and finally fulfilled the long-cherished wish of "Eight punishments and one world, the world is armed". The threshold of the past. It was with this continent's second-strongest power that Albion was able to calmly implement their set of "pulling the second-strongest country against the first-powerful" **** stick strategy. Although the allies are now very stiff due to a series of problems, in the context of Charlemagne’s rising, Philip II and his successors will eventually compromise with reality and seek to join the anti-Charlemagne alliance led by Albion, Contain this common enemy. At that time, Charlemagne will have to face a huge siege net, even though the national strength is strong, it is difficult to cope with the challenges of multiple fronts at the same time. All ambitions will meet in the face of this big net.
It is based on this judgment, plus that the war in the North has ended, and the "Naval Arms Control Agreement" has just been signed, and other directions cannot be expanded temporarily. The only thing left is that Castilla has a few opportunities for the whole country. Take tacit approval of Titans’ actions.
But things have to be prioritized. Even Richelieu agrees that the annexation of Castile is a matter of time. But it is necessary to see the form clearly and follow the steps. How can a country's ministers bring a group of soldiers who are no different from robbers? Open flames, go into the palace, kill people and set fires, burn dead bodies-what time is this?
It was only a matter of time before Bellamy’s embarrassing behavior spread to the top of the world through communication gems the next day, spreading to the public.
"In addition to the protests of the Minister of Castile, every country expressed their dissatisfaction and asked them to allow the diplomatic institutions in Charlemagne to strengthen their security. The Minister of Albion asked me whether the Charlemagne can think with modern thinking Question; Minister Ymir declared that'Pope is paying attention to your country; Serres and Lapland said that this kind of behavior is puzzling..."
Richelieu's tone was still dull, his eyes staring at Bernard became more severe.
Although such acts of atrocities, even more brutal than this, are not uncommon in the history of the nations, the following are strongly surprised by Charlemagne's "violent means." Quite a little crow laughed at the black pig. However, it is now a modern era in which humans claim to be "clear" and "progressive." The ambassador of a country dared to lead people into his king's palace to kill and set fire, which was really shocking. It is no wonder that AIA was surprised and fell into the self-question of "whether they can play happily with Charlemagne."
at the moment. Charlemagne was completely passive. The protest book almost flooded the desk. Foreign institutions and Charlemagne abroad have a strange and even unfriendly look-if the embarrassment and dilemma of this process can be returned to the actual control of Castile, it can be considered a profit. , But what made Richey angry was. Bellamy and the ticket maniac messed things up.
It's not that they let the anti-Charlie Man's Queen Anna run away, and Queen Castile ushered in the end of life in a way that fits her identity. She said "Purple is the noblest shroud" to the begging beggar to escape, wearing a full costume, wielding her wand and fighting the soldiers who rushed into the palace to the last moment. After killing more than ten people, the queen, who was loved by the Castilian people, was shot in the body and died of excessive blood loss. In order to vent, Bellamy ordered the queen's body to be dismembered and burned and thrown into the pond.
When the mission was completed, the second goal, Philip II, who was crucial, managed to escape.
The specific situation is unclear. From the current information collected, it should be Philip II who, under the cover of Marquis Sandiana, ran away before Bellamy rushed into the house. The Titans soldiers found that the target had escaped and pursued it, but just as they were about to catch up with the target, a group of orc soldiers guarding the Principality of the Principality stopped them. Without waiting for the reaction, Philip II took the young king and princess and hid in the Principality of the Principality under the leadership of Count Lobanov, Minister of the United Principality of Ross. Not daring to break into the embassy of the Principality, but also worried that he would be surrounded by the Castilian army who came to King Qin, and the soldiers and envoys who had been crazy all night could only retreat.
This incident, which the Castilians called the "removal of the exhibition hall", is now a temporary conclusion, but the results and significance it leads are far-reaching.
There is no contradiction between the Principality and Charlemagne. Even though King Yi was still attacking the city in the Principality not long ago, the two countries were unable to engage in diplomatic relations because of religious and ethnic issues. However, before this incident, the two countries did not have any fundamental interests in national interests. conflict. Richelieu did not know what agreement Castilla had made with the Principality, and what commitments they had made, but in this incident, the bears reacted very violently, and even reached the point where they would not be threatened by force. Not a good sign.
It is the long-cherished expectation of the Principality to intervene in the human camp. In this matter, no matter how firm believer Philip II is, he will certainly seek to improve relations with the Principality and reach some kind of alliance. If the clever Count Witt is smart enough, I am afraid that at this time, a secret agent has been sent to Albion to mediate the dispute between Albion and Castile, and he has requested the formation of a League of Nations against Charlemagne...
"As a minister, I have no intention to comment on His Highness' actions. But ‘everything that puts the state at the forefront, I believe that Your Highness also understands. Considering the bad influence of this matter, the relevant personnel must be repatriated and tried.”
Bernard's cheeks twitched, and Richelieu's cold eyes forced him back as soon as he got angry.
The meaning of the phase is no longer clear. He will use Bellamy's head to solve the diplomatic dilemma. In any case, the country will not be able to form an alliance. Bernard wanted to shelter those criminals, using the reason "the perpetrators are Castilians, and the criminals have committed suicide"-such a small calculation is not feasible.
"Your Highness also greets Titans. I have been tempted to stay in the military camp recently. In order to improve the efficiency of military spending, we will conduct a comprehensive inventory of the Army, Navy, and Titans. The behavior of dereliction of duty, once discovered, will never be let go."
The anger in the heart suddenly extinguished, and Bernard, who had been arrogant, could not sit still at this time.
This is a weighty warning. If Titans has more trouble, he will not hesitate to use the opportunity of the whole army to eliminate those generals who dare to "walk alone" or "run away." Although the king and the army are quite capable of not losing their tail, before King Shire established his power. Titans needs to be contained. But Richelieu also does not allow a warlord who is arrogant and arrogant! Before the situation became unmanageable, he did not hesitate to offend the consortium and the second king, but also to get rid of the heads of Titans.
Watching Bernard slowly slump on the sofa, Richelieu was relieved. It seems that this matter can be successfully concluded.
Just when he was ready to comfort Bernard. When giving each other a step. After a ring of bells, hesitating, Bernard pressed the button and asked:
"What's wrong? Don't know that I'm talking to him?"
"Your Highness. An emergency."
A loud voice came out of the loudspeaker. With his report, King Bernard swept away his frustration, and the mood that had just turned better was shattered.
"One soldier of our army was missing during the border exercise. When it came to the Castilla army defense zone, it asked to enter the search. The other party not only refused, but also shot and wounded our soldiers. Our army was forced to fight back in self-defense. Now the front is fighting fiercely. in."
The megaphone continued to say something, but Richelieu didn't listen to it. The self-proclaimed and savvy Archbishop Li could not have thought of it. In matters such as "Xia Ke Shang", "Fighting Alone", Titan Spy Army is more than a star and a little bit stronger, and even his appearance has been severely shaved this time...

When the smoke rose on the land, the sea in the far south was calm, and a lieutenant of the Royal Navy of Albion looked up at the blue sky and stepped onto the deck.
In the opinion of the prosecutor, the condition of the old commercial sailing boat is very bad. The deck is wet, and there are many seaweeds and kelp. The sailors are cleaning the deck-obviously, this irregular cargo ship from Lapland has just suffered There was a violent storm. At this moment, under the muzzle of the cruiser "Akerius" of the Royal Navy of Albion, the wind stopped on the high seas to be inspected by the Royal Navy.
This is a very common thing in this southern sea where pirates are flooding. The Wang Jiajun’s combat doctrine stipulates that all ships that cannot be immediately judged to the right should be intercepted and inspected. The cargo ship captain Mr. Knutson issued detailed documents and proper oaths to prove his identity and the purpose and destination of the ship-the 1500-ton mast sailing ship "Hero", from Kristiani of Lapland Departure from Asia to the southern colony of Charlemagne, the shipment is of high-quality pine wood from Lapland Fjord.
After checking the voyage, the captain of Lapland sprayed a lot of saliva produced by chewing tobacco, and invited the prosecutor to check their documents and cargo in the cabin in Lapland with a heavy accent, and his wife who was being tortured by a toothache In order to celebrate this chance encounter at sea, he also took out a collection of gin.
Everything looked as cheerful as the festival, and the prosecutor Albion, who had always been faceless, was also infected by this atmosphere and accepted the captain's kindness.
Finally, the inspection was completed in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, and the logbook, operation certificate, cargo, and personnel were all proved to be no problem. The prosecutor of Albion announced:
"Mr. Captain, there is no problem with all the documents. Please wait for our ship to send a signal."
After receiving the prosecutor and his men, the "Akerius" anchored and sailed straight towards the "Hero", passing by the cargo ship's port side, and the stern fluttered with a "downwind" signal flag.
"Our Albian friends are really enthusiastic."
Poured the bottom of the bottle, Captain "Knutson" slightly teased, and above him, the flag of "One Wind" was also hung. All the crew watched the well-meaning "Akerius" go away until the white angle sail disappeared below the horizon.
"The enemy ship stays away!"
The childish watchman shouted loudly ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and immediately began his work: looking far away, trying to see all the suspicious signs of the sea and the sky, the sailors on the deck were quickly busy, anchoring, cleaning the chain and Deck, full of sails. But unlike before, they spoke elven language.
This is not a cargo ship at all, and her name is not the "Hero". Its real name is "smseadler". The seemingly harmless cargo sailing ship is actually a camouflage attack belonging to the defense navy. Ship. The ship is equipped with panels for concealing several passages, and fully armed Marines can suddenly appear on the deck through these passages. The bow has two retractable 105mm naval guns hidden on the bow, and the upper deck is provided with concealed gun positions and The detachable 88mm anti-aircraft gun can sink unguarded prey at any time. Below the waterline, there is a specially reinforced keel, and a 900-horsepower steam engine is also installed. When the ship is in the wind, it can rely on mechanical power to chase its prey. There are also two motor boats on board, which can carry the boarding team to board the enemy ship.
"."
Spit out the tobacco, biting the finely-made pipe, "Captain Knutson"-Major Felix Luckner looked at his crew and battleship, showing a satisfied smile. (To be continued...)
