Chapter 185 Greed Calculation
In the council hall of the Principality of Mellock, Grand Duke Dormont is secretly holding a meeting. Several of his confidants are present, and several people are discussing a shocking conspiracy.
"I heard that the Elf Forest has started a war with the Orc Empire?" A minister asked.
"It's true that the elf forest has carried out war mobilization. It seems that this orc empire is a full-scale attack, and the elf forest will not be able to take into account the affairs of the human world for a while, hehe." Another minister said with a bad smile.
A general stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, our army can deal with Romai. In a few days, when the 14-year monsoon comes, our warship can sail to Romai Island. At that time, Romai will lose its barrier, and that little army is not enough for us to eat. Although they are well equipped, they are rare and lacking in number. With little combat experience, we can completely take Rome Island in one fell swoop.
"You will be choked to death if you eat alone." The Foreign Minister said, "We must share the risks and pull other duchy into the water, otherwise the crisis of the elves forest will be lifted in the future. How can we explain to the elves?" His words made several ministers nodded frequently.
"And." The minister who spoke first suggested, "It's better to catch the Marquis Rudolph alive, and the worst thing is to let him escape. Don't kill him. In case the elf forest is under the banner of revenge, it's not easy for us to deal with it. Let Rudolph escape, which is not a mortal hatred, and it will definitely be resolved in the future.
"Do you still expect to resolve hatred by destroying other people's foundation?" A general said that his name was Meloa, the first general of the Duchy of Lomek. He was experienced in combat and was a powerful character.
He walked up to Grand Duke Dormont and said solemnly, "Don't think that the person who can develop such a huge industry is a fool. The troops in his hand will not be less than 40,000 and have sophisticated equipment, so I suggest that if you don't concentrate more than 300,000 troops this time, don't start a war and cross the sea. We are not so sure. If we lose, we will offend the richest people in the world. It's not a funny thing.
"How can we lose? This time, we will unite with the Principality of Bello, the Principality of Faria, the Principality of Antarctica, and the four countries to send troops together, at least 300,000 troops and hundreds of warships. We can measure the ability of Rome Island, and it is impossible to beat us!" A minister came forward and said.
Grand Duke of Dormont stood up and said slowly, "Send the proposal to the Duchy of Belo and the Duchy of Faria, as well as the Principality of Antarctica. The four countries jointly sent troops to fight against Rome Island. When several duchys returned the news, we will find an opportunity to sneak attack Rome's transport fleet and reduce the number of their ships. What ability can defeat our 300,000 united army!"
A group of ministers took a step forward and bowed their heads and praised: "The Grand Duke is wise. This time he will definitely take away Rome Island and become the richest man in the world."
Dormont continued: "General Meloa, you are responsible for the training and command of the army. I want the first 50,000 troops on Rome Island to withstand 10 days, so that the fleet can be sent to the next 50,000 troops, and it is impossible to eat 50,000 troops on Rome Island in one breath, hum."
"My subordinates are obeding." General Meloa stepped forward and saluted, "I hope Your Majesty can prepare more ships. If we can transport more people to the island at a time, we will be more sure."
"This is no problem." The Grand Duke agreed and smiled, "Maybe we can capture several Romai's transport ships. At that time, it won't be a problem to transport 60,000 people at a time."
General Meloa shook his head after hearing this. All the battle plan was a minimum expectation. As a result, the Grand Duke of Dormont actually pinned his hopes on what had not happened, which was really not a good omen, or it was not a good thing for the army.
After the meeting, several messengers were sent to several principalies. The reason why they did not contact the closer Duchy of Luolei was that the Duchy of Luolei was relatively close to Rome Island and was afraid that it would leak secrets, so they were excluded. Several messengers soon came to their respective principality and began to lobby the principalates to jointly send troops to swallow. And the matter of Luo Mai.
"Your Excellency, after acquiring Rome Island, we will distribute the property equally according to the contribution and loss, including the people, property, and advanced weapons manufacturing technology." A messenger said to the Grand Duke of Leah.
"In view of our own security considerations, our country can only send 50,000 soldiers to participate in the war. At that time, I hope that your country will not go back on its promise and give our country the benefits it deserves in proportion." The Grand Duke of Faria was moved, and the richness of Rome Island was indeed a big cake.
Similarly, the Grand Duke of Antarctica also agreed to the messenger's suggestion. He also decided to send 50,000 troops to assist the Duchy of Lomec, and finally divided some of the benefits according to the proportion of troops sent. Both duchies have made up their minds. Even if they don't, they are not the mastermind, and they don't exert much effort, so they will not be completely defeated by Rome Island. Face revenge.
Because Bello Province did not enter the sea, there was no navy, but the land area of the Duchy of Bello was slightly larger, so the population was larger. Therefore, the Grand Duke of Bello decided to send 70,000 people to participate in the war to capture Rome, hoping that he could get more benefits in the future.
For a while, the army of the Duchy of Bello began to gather, and 70,000 troops approached the border of the Duchy of Lomec. Each 50,000 troops from the Antarctic Province and Faria Province boarded their own fleet and sailed to the Duchy of Lomec to wait for the arrival of the monsoon to attack Romem Island.
The entire army of the Duchy of Lomec has been mobilized, and nearly 200,000 troops are all in a first-class readiness. In order to safely prevent the troops of other countries from entering the country, 100,000 troops have been secretly organized, which are responsible for guarding the army of other possible entry.
What makes General Meloa depressed is that the actual number of troops in his hand is 270,000, and there are no more than 300,000 troops envisaged in advance. Although the number of troops transported in the first wave has been strengthened, because the total number of troops sent by the three navies is roughly the same, 20,000 per country, so now the total number of troops he can send to Rome Island at a time exceeds 60,000, but in order to fully exert this capacity, it is necessary for the joint naval fleet of the three countries to fully control the sea.
In this way, all the burden is on the navies of the Duchy of Lomec, the Principality of Antarctica and the Principality of Faria. They need to ensure the smooth sea and the safety of the transport fleet, but the generals of the three countries with more than 150 combat ships feel that this task should be very easy, because he Our fleet is the most powerful force in the whole southern sea.
Grand Duke Dormont was excitedly fantasizing about his future by the window of his room, whispering: "Oh, my God, car business, train business, ship business, and arms business, mine! It's all mine!"
