"Ivan, if Mercury Shipyard's production capacity can continue to expand, according to your plan of replacing construction time with service life, launching more than 25 iron ribbed Tier 4 battleships within two years shouldn't be a problem?"
beep--!
Bang bang bang...
In the long whistle, an unstoppable steel beast crushed the snow-white steam, flew from south to north along the long dragon-like railroad track, and entered a dark tunnel through the mountains.
now.
After a year of sub-construction by the "Coastal Railroad Company", the entire line from Buffalo to Carbushur, from Georgia to Charles has been opened to traffic. With the addition of the "Georgia Corridor" that originally connected Georgia and Yuanfanling, the entire coastal railway that runs through the colony of Falitis has been completed by more than one third.
If the progress goes well, the construction speed in the later period can be accelerated slightly. Perhaps by the end of next year, the entire coastal railway from St. Ivan to Yuanfan Port will be officially opened to traffic.
It is entirely possible to afford a considerable part of the business that originally belonged to shipping between the colonies. By allowing ocean-going ships to load and unload cargo directly in St. Ivan, the time saved in the middle may allow them to make an extra trip to the old and new continents during the seaworthy season. That is, even if there is no slave trade involved, they can reach an amazing profit of 300%.
At that time, the role of Long Island Port, the best port on the east coast, will really take off.
On this trip to the Queen’s train headed by Yuan Sail to Georgia, she sits in the walnut seat of the luxury carriage, holds a small ivory fan and wears a gorgeous low-cut court dress and a jeweled crown. Livina is graceful. And glamorous, radiant and radiant.
Wearing a female major general uniform, Anita, who is valiantly and gracious, is the first female knight in the kingdom who is well-deserved. She temporarily serves as the queen's guardian. She sits next to Livina and behaves in an intimate manner.
Also habitually wearing a general uniform, the tall and heroic Aiwen sat across a small table opposite them.
"My beautiful Majesty, as long as the money is in place and the posture is anything... heh heh, don't worry, there is no problem!"
Aiwen promised, patting his chest.
At this point, a week has passed.
Without letting the [Emerald Corona] fly back all the way by itself, Ivan directly launched [Dream Cruise] to receive the two of them, including the huge team that was visiting with a whole queen, to Yuan Fanling.
Because Livina's first stop was not simply to connect with feelings, she visited the Mercury Shipyard and the iron ribbed Tier 4 battleships under construction.
only.
Livina looked at the stingy guy in front of him with a little resentment in her eyes. Taking advantage of the darkness in the tunnel, Livina raised her right foot with golden high heels under her skirt and lightly stepped on the back of Irvine's instep.
As soon as the upper lip and the lower lip touched, hundreds of thousands of Golden Lions were spent like this, and there was not much discount yet, but this sum of money really had to be spent.
The Southern Continent now has the Oyo tribe as the agent of the kingdom, replacing the original position of Dahomey. The slave trade in the Southern Continent is completely the kingdom’s world, but the attitude of Prince Clement of the Sark Empire with the largest territory is not. More and more ambiguous.
Ugor Island, after several years of construction, at the beginning of the year, several ports on Ugor Island had been partially put into use, becoming bridgeheads connecting east and west routes. While the cargo throughput is rising rapidly, the call for the establishment of the Fourth Fleet is also increasing.
In addition, the native Portsmouth Royal Navy Shipyard has launched three Galliot heavy cruisers.
The military’s general plan is to build a total of six such warships in the future, together with a certain number of new-type fourth-tier ships, to launch a destructive battle against the "Peacock Islands Route", another pillar of the Hilius Empire.
Give the kingdom a strategic initiative.
The territory seems to be large, but troops are needed everywhere, and the kingdom's fleet is in urgent need of expansion!
Only the New World where Ivan was stationed did not allow the kingdom to send more soldiers even under the impact of the spiritual tide, and the rapid growth of products, industrial raw materials, and finished products year after year has contributed greatly to the economic development of the kingdom.
Looking at Aiwen, I can't help but sigh:
"Oh, it's really difficult to drive the kingdom's carriage to get out of the siege among the nations of the world!"
Irvine, who was lightly stepped on by Li Wei Na, didn't care too much. If she could exchange hundreds of thousands of Golden Lion orders with one foot, she couldn't wait to let her step on a few more feet. Hearing her sigh, he smiled and said:
"Your Majesty, Sark, Atlan, and even some guys in the alliance are unreliable. There are no eternal allies between countries, only eternal interests.
Believe it or not, if there are signs of Phalatis taking Hilius instead, these guys will definitely jump out and drag us back?
Moreover, although "morality" is the product of the continuous progress of human civilization, there may be individuals in this world who serve as moral models, but there is absolutely no possibility that there will be organizations or countries with moral models.
Even if a saint is the leader of this organization, if he cannot unite within the organization and consider everything for the collective benefit, then he will inevitably be overthrown, and then he will be severely stepped on to 10,000 feet by those with vested interests.
Even if there is a superficial morality between countries, it is only to hide the demands of greater interests! Actually, aren’t we the same?
By the way, your Majesty, has the ‘dismemberment plan’ that we discussed last time started? "
Speaking of this, Livina became excited at once, unfolded the hollow ivory fan and slapped it, her charming face almost showing light:
"Ha, according to the action plan we discussed earlier, a large number of intelligence personnel in the kingdom have entered the Kingdom of Frisia in various identities, buying newspapers, theaters, and poets... and began to guide public opinion to incite all classes, especially the upper class against Greece. Reus' hatred.
The same is true for the Hilius Empire. We have already revealed the information collected in the past and related to the movement of the "Fortune Church" to the relevant departments of Hilius without a trace.
Even if there is the Queen Teresa, who is said to be pregnant, her status has risen sharply. But it won’t be long before the empire’s high-level guards on the key money bag of the Kingdom of Frisia will be greatly deepened, and they will definitely want to do something to deepen their control over Frisia.
In fact, our intelligence personnel have discovered that there is no need to risk contact with any core figures. Because of the systematic and difficult to reconcile contradictions, coupled with the eye of the "Black Wing God", the outbreak of the contradiction between the two sides is now only a small spark. "
Hearing this, Ivan immediately interjected:
"Obviously, the good days for Hilius have not been long. What we have to do is to make them lose as much as possible when they split up... even more heavier!"
Having said that, a pair of black eyes and a pair of lake-green eyes looked at each other, and then smiled tacitly and knowingly:
‘Oh ha ha... we are really a little bit bad! ’
At this time, even Anita who was listening in the whole process, as the sister and good friend of the two, couldn't integrate into their conversation at all, and she didn't even understand what the cryptic meaning in the words was.
Shrugging his shoulders, he went to enjoy the late autumn scenery flashing through the window.
Although because of the witchcraft inspired by Ivan, the well-known entourage in the carriage couldn't hear what state secrets they were talking about, they couldn't help but envy the Marquis of Garriott, who could talk and laugh with Her Majesty.
She was originally a guardian knight. During her time in the military academy, she joined the second queen Livina, who was still the crown prince, and was promoted to a high-ranking wizard at a flying speed. She has long been Her Majesty’s most core and trusted minister of the hidden residence.
The first stop after leaving the mainland after he succeeded to the throne came to the territory of the Marquis of Galliot in the New World, which is enough to illustrate the status of the Marquis in the eyes of Her Majesty the Queen.
There is no doubt that in her Majesty’s reign for at least thirty years in the future, even if she has a destined significant other after marriage, the Marquis is bound to be the hottest figure in the entire kingdom, with endless honors. .
As for the Hou Guohui will not catch up with the kingdom in 30 years? Even the most neurotic of this group of people has never had such absurd ideas.
The other people's thoughts did not affect the talk of the two people in the slightest. After chatting for a while on the follow-up plan, Livina suddenly thought of another thing:
"Ivan, our intelligence personnel planted in the Deputy King District of New Silius has already reported the news back.
The ‘Fire of Thorns’ that you encountered in the ‘Broken Star Sea’ should have received the help from Deputy King Flavio there, and came to the New World to deal with the threat of the ‘Mother of Water’ Melo.
Moreover, they had retreated a thousand kilometers before the border and lost a large area of precious metal mines. At the beginning, Hilius could not take a shot at homeland, but now that the "religious war" has gradually subsided, it is obviously impossible to sit idly by.
Oh, the output of gold and silver is directly linked to the quality of life of the empire's dignitaries! "
There is ridicule in the tone. The kingdom uses the proceeds of looting and operation to support the development of the steam industry, but these guys use it for their own high-end consumption. It is really...enviable, jealous and hateful.
Who doesn't want to have a good life? right?
"Um... this possibility is justified."
Since it wasn't for himself, Ivan didn't go to multi-management anymore, just instructed the bass responsible for intelligence to monitor closely, and don't let this powerful "titled knight" who can't be ignored have the opportunity to jump out and spoil him.
Afterwards, the dusk grew stronger.
After Livina experienced the charm of a steam locomotive, and promised to convene a parliament to discuss the feasibility of introducing this new type of transportation.
Snapped--!
A snap of your fingers.
A group of people on the steam locomotive, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, has been directly transmitted by Aiwen to the northernmost city of St. Irvine, Buffalo.
Olivia, who has been preparing for the welcome banquet for a long time, is all dressed up. As the hostess of the Galliot family, she has led a group of "Edwin" maids to wait for a long time in "White Swan Castle".
......
Under the same night.
The Deputy King District of New Hilius is located in Huarez, the capital of the inland on the west bank of the Golden Sea.
"Prince Manolo was assassinated? Death Messenger...Fleet...[Legendary Battleship·Flame Light]...Target...Falitis Colony?!"
In the "Broken Star Sea", he was attacked by an unknown transcendent of the legal system, his army was wiped out, and he returned to the "Fire of Thorns" in the Vice-Kingdom of New Hilius. The sent message from the spirit world.
at this time.
The candle light on the desk shined on his extremely gloomy face for several days. It was uncertain, like a ghost!
