Chapter 443: War of the Roses and the Blue Cross 3

After receiving Paul's order, the adjutant immediately arranged for the lighthouse flagman on the shore to inquire about the situation from the incoming ship.

After a while, he returned to the office to report: "Sir, they said they were coming for rescue."

"Rescue?" Paul frowned even more.

Because he clearly remembered that he had never seen a notice issued by his superiors regarding the passage of merchant ships.

Just in case he missed it, he carefully checked the recently issued documents and finally made sure that he remembered correctly.

And if I remember correctly, that means that the cargo ships are not transporting the White Rose family, but the Red Rose family.

And the ship is likely to contain strategic items that the Red Rose family urgently needs.

If this guess is correct, it means that the Duke's strategic plan to block the Red Rose will be completely destroyed with the arrival of these cargo ships.

"You're not mistaken?" Paul asked again.

Paul asked this not because he did not want to believe it, but because he wanted to rule out any possibility of misjudgment.

You must know that the semaphore used in boating cannot express all meanings clearly like human language communication. Not only can it express certain contents in a limited way, but there are often many ambiguities.

Because he must confirm the correctness of the semaphore.

The adjutant replied seriously: "Yes, sir, to ensure accuracy, we asked three times, and the other party also answered three times.

It was also because I confirmed what the other party meant that I dared to report it to you. "

Paul knew the situation was not good as soon as he heard it, so he ordered: "Send a boat to find out, it is best to invite their person in charge.

Listen up, you are invited! "

“Sir, their ship is too fast and our human-powered ship simply cannot catch up.

If you want to send people on board, you must first intercept them, which requires attacking them with crossbows from the shore.

Sir, do you need to do this? "

Because Paul often pays attention to Port Velen, unlike most people in Auroville who don't know anything about it, he still knows some things about Maro City.

He knew very well that the Maro City Council was extremely powerful, and he also knew that although Maro City apparently belonged to the Stein family, the actual controller was the dragon-slaying great swordsman.

To offend the Maruo City Council was actually to offend the Great Sword Master.

And the Great Sword Master was notoriously tough in his external strategy. If he offended him, the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, he was definitely unwilling to stop violently, so he ordered: "Use flag language to ask them to stop, and say that we want to communicate with them."

"Yes!" the adjutant responded and ran out the door.

After a while, he ran back and reported: "The other party is unwilling to stop the boat.

Sir, what should we do now? "

Paul fell silent for a moment when he heard that the other party was unwilling to stop the boat.

When the adjutant saw that he didn't reply, he became anxious and reminded: "Sir, once they pass our pass, the main road of the Seine River will be in front of them.

The river there is wider and the flow speed is slower. With the other party's speed, it will be more difficult to stop it. "

Of course Paul knew about this situation, but he didn't dare to take action.

"Forget it! Let them pass!

However, immediately use a flying pigeon to send a message to the rear to report this situation..."

At this point, Paul suddenly stopped.

Because he suddenly realized that due to his inaction, and if those cargo ships were really used for what he guessed, then he would definitely be held accountable.

So, he changed his words and said: "Forget it, I will handle this matter myself. You can go out first!"

After the adjutant left, he took up his pen and started writing in the format of the inquiry document.

As soon as it was clearly reported, ten merchant ships loaded with cargo were sailing towards Dawn City under the slogan of rescue.

The second question I asked my superiors was whether they had reached some kind of agreement with the Maro City Council to distance themselves from their relationship.

Then he sent the document to Dawn City via a flying pigeon.

After doing all this, Paul breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt that he had done everything he needed to do, which not only avoided his own risks, but also hinted that the purpose of these ten cargo ships might be to capitalize on the enemy.

Next, whether it is your own fate or the fate of your family, you can only see how the Duke will deal with it.

While Paul was processing paperwork, the captain of the second ship [Nicole] of the Maritime Guards of the Marrow City Council was constantly observing the movements of the Starlight Town shore defense with a telescope.

The captain is Wellesley Lawson, who is over 50 years old and has rich sailing experience. He is also the new captain of the [Nicole] ship.

The original captain was a young man in his early 20s. After experiencing the incident where Captain Jack made his own decisions, Ethan no longer believed in young people.

Perhaps young people have drive, energy, and passion, but they are not mature enough.

They weren't very good at handling a lot of things that required strategizing, so Ethan replaced them all.

Nowadays, the Maritime Guards affiliated to the Maro City Council already has eleven armed ships, and the captains of each ship are mature men with certain life experiences.

The youngest is 42 years old, the oldest is 53 years old, and the average age is 46.4 years old.

Captain Wellesley, now 51 years old, couldn't help but frowned after observing that there was no movement in Starlight Town.

According to the original plan, if the opponent violently stopped him, he would be ordered to counterattack and bombard the Starlight Formation's shore defense facilities.

Give the other party enough deterrence to ensure smooth navigation in the future.

But the other party only made a few inquiries and politely requested to stop the ship.

After being rejected, there was no violent interception, which made him very confused.

At this time, the first mate came over and asked: "Captain, according to the instructions, we need to establish deterrence, but now the other party does not take action, what should we do?"

Captain Wellesley heard the words, his face was full of wrinkles, tightened and loosened, and then slowly said: "Don't worry about them, as long as they don't take action, we will never take action.

Notify the cargo ship behind to maintain the formation and speed, we are about to pass the pass.

Once you enter the main channel, you will sail to the side of the red rose."

"Yes!" The first mate responded and immediately conveyed the order.

In this way, the fleet sailed steadily into the main channel of the Seine River, and finally arrived at Dawn City in two days.

Only when I encountered inquiries in Starlight Town, the rest of the way was calm, and there was not even a single person asking questions.

Even when passing by Dawn City, there were thousands of residents stopping on the shore to watch, as if lining up to welcome them.

Along the way, Captain Wellesley was very confused, why was it so quiet?

But what he didn't know was that under this quiet surface, when the senior officials of Dawn City where White Rose was, learned that the fleet was heading to Dawn City, the fleet had already arrived at its destination.

And they were also furious...
