[British officials regard France as the number one competitor and will curb its series of evil expansions.All naval activities in the eastern Mediterranean are legal and just. In order to support the legitimate interests of our allies Egypt and Turkey, my country will continue to increase its military presence in the Red Sea. 】
The newspaper with this report was quickly delivered to the desk of the First Consul.
"It's indeed big news." The blond girl murmured.
Ai Hayasaka said that Britain is learning so fast that it has even used public opinion offensive, but this wording is obviously not rascal enough, it seems that Buckingham Palace still needs some face.
"Britain is too deceitful, we need to show her some color."
Guildre's deep and resonant voice resounded through the office. At this moment, the First Consul, the Minister of Finance, and the Cabinet Secretary in this room were all worried about one thing, and even the top decision-makers in France sometimes scratched their heads.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer spoke out in support of "if this continues, the resource allocation of the colonies will be greatly affected, and normal economic activities will be affected."
"Marshal Jill is fine, I don't see that you are also a hawk." Ai Hayasaka said with a smile.
"I didn't say we would go to war." The chancellor shook his head in horror. "It's just that this situation must be improved. We have no advantage in facing Britain's trade sanctions, and now it's even more difficult."
"If I insist on a solution, I really can't think of it now. After all, the British fleet has galloped across the sea for more than 300 years. They are determined to block the Red Sea, so we can only swallow it."
On the surface, Hayasaka Ai seems to be calm, but in fact, her rule as a leader is not to show her inner wavering.She is just a mortal, and she is still at a loss when faced with the siege and interception of the most powerful country in this era.
It was the first time she had suffered such a big dumb loss.
"To be honest, does France really need overseas colonies so much?"
Humphrey attracted everyone's attention. To be honest, his words were treasonous, but he knew that a generous leader like Joan would listen:
"If we can complete the integration of the industrial market in continental Europe, the low-end products of the colonies will be irrelevant. France's advantage lies in the land. Why do we have to compete with Britain in the colonial field that we are not good at?" Humphrey He knocked on the table, "In my opinion, France's cumbersome colony can be cut off."
Chapter 415 Advanced Skill Panel (Addition)
Hayasaka was silent for a moment.
In the eyes of others, the First Consul has always been quick-witted. Once she falls into long-term thinking, either the matter is very difficult, or she is brewing anger that will overturn the world.
"This proposal...is very bold!" The Minister of Finance was stunned for a long time before uttering such a sentence.
The secretary he knew who was content with the status quo and only wanted the stability of the civil service system changed. If it involved national interests, Humphrey would still donate his wisdom without hesitation. This is the unique judgment of a court veteran.
"Since I participated in the decision-making, I will contribute." Humphrey said lightly.
"I don't care, as long as this matter doesn't become self-defeating and become a traitorous act."
Gildrey's indifferent words represent his position. The soldiers are just obeying the military dispatch, and he also has resentment in his heart. As the person in charge of expanding the warship, he knows the naval gap between France and Britain best. He is really aggrieved.
The second largest navy is the most useless. It can't beat the first place in the front, and it will be stared at by the ranks behind. This awkward position tortures the soul of a soldier.
He longed for a great war, just like the battle that destroyed the Spanish Armada back then, dividing the hegemony of an era.
For a moment, the blond girl breathed a sigh of relief as if she had a well-understood thought.
"This is a very constructive proposal, but do you have a specific plan for the follow-up? For example, how to deal with the colonies that left a power vacuum after France retreated?"
"I need to plan carefully," Humphrey replied.
Hayasaka Ai didn't expect to get an answer immediately, she was asking herself a question.
Cutting colonies?
Appropriate in this pinch?What, if necessary, should be done with those abandoned colonies?These problems are not thought out at once.Ai Hayasaka directly felt the coercion brought by Britain. In an era dominated by ocean trade, it was indeed a great pressure to meet the most powerful country of ocean civilization.
The power center of France has just rejected a "continental blockade" strategy, and Britain across the English Channel has already played a trump card of "ocean blockade".Although the intensity did not reach the level of cutting off trade, the losses caused were not small.
Sure enough, the decision makers of Buckingham Palace were not stupid at all, and their tactics of containment and stranglement were launched.
"If the integration of the entire European continent is the premise, I can find a way to deal with the aftermath of the colonies..." Ai Hayasaka said lightly.
In fact, there are still alternative forms of "colonization" in the 21st century, which can be used for reference.
"The industries of France and its allies are huge now." The Minister of Finance suggested, "Since Your Excellency the Consul asked the Grand Duke of Prussia to initiate the summit talks, this is an opportunity to implement the trade agreement."
"It's not big enough because the European continent is already small."
Ai Hayasaka picked up the globe placed on the desk, placed it in front of the three of them, pointed to the location of France, and then drew a rough arc around the territory of the allies.
"Look at it clearly, the great territory built by France is actually not even one-third of Tsarist Russia, it's too small."
"Your Excellency's judgment is too accurate. Many former politicians don't even know where their own country is."
Ai Hayasaka ignored Humphrey's flattery, and she was never proud of some basic knowledge.
"If you want to achieve the same size as Britain, it is not enough to rely on the present, plus the vast Eastern European plains nourished by the Volga River." Ai Hayasaka turned the globe, this is the location of the Black Sea "plus Ukraine. The super granary, the protracted war needs rear support most.”
"Since the destruction of the Spanish Armada, the British fleet has been invincible and invincible for more than two centuries. However, there should not always be only one master of the sea. Buckingham Palace has begun to face up to the threat of France, and now a new war is brewing."
"I originally wanted to make full preparations, and then start to compete in terms of soft power. But I underestimated Buckingham Palace, and the enemy never gave you a chance to prepare..."
She tapped the position of the British Isles on the globe.
"But Britain was not ready either."
"Those people made a mistake: they gave up Tsarist Russia, a viable ally. They judged too early, or thought that France would not dare to rashly invade the deep and huge Siberian Plain. Whatever the reason, we must seize the flaw."
Ai Hayasaka revealed her ambitions to her staff and confidants, and her next goal is Tsarist Russia!
If such a huge Tsarist Russia can be annexed, France's heritage will not be afraid to confront Britain head-on. The forests, iron ore, copper ore and coal in the Siberian Plain are all resources at your fingertips.This temptation is so good that even the ice and snow in the Arctic Circle cannot suppress it.
Humphrey and the chancellor exchanged glances, they knew they could not change the decision of the consul.
Gildera laughed loudly, "My lord, the millions of soldiers in France are on standby at any time, and the high command already has an attack plan."
"Let's settle the Polish issue first. Before taking tactical action, we must let the Tsar relax his strategic vigilance as much as possible. We will talk about it after I return from the Munich talks."
Hayasaka Ai waved her hand, "The meeting is over."
The three were noncommittal, and left after a salute.
She was left alone in the office, Ai Hayasaka waved her hand quietly out of thin air, and a plain linen cloth appeared.
The Vatican's booty, the Shroud of Turin.
"You're right..."
Ai Hayasaka murmured to herself that she had recently received an omen through Joan of Arc's enlightenment skills: Britain will make a big move in the ocean, focusing on Egypt.The result is unfortunate.
Since receiving the Holy Relic, Joan's revelations have become more and more accurate.
She looks at the character properties panel again:
Real name: Jeanne Darc (three stars)
Against Magic: EX
Revelation: A++
Military Strategy: B
Track down the enemy: A
Saint: A+
Leadership temperament: EX
Endless Protection: EX
Star Trailblazer: B
Noble Phantasms: My Lord is Here, Sword of Durandil, Maiden of Red Lotus, Spear of Longinus, Blank
Achievement: Holy Grail
The addition of an insignificant "Military Strategy" skill is probably a feedback from the European Union Universal Dungeon's specialized wars. Stacia should have this skill sooner or later.In addition, the revelation skill has been improved as expected.
The most important thing is that the Noble Phantasm has an additional "blank" display. King Arthur's Noble Phantasm "Knight's Obelisk" had such a performance before it was formed. Hayasaka Aiko is very happy, after all, there is an extra killer.
But Ai Hayasaka is sure that this "blank" treasure is not the Shroud of Turin, and the holy relic is a holy relic, and Ai Hayasaka is not sure about the specific effect.
"Although the holy relic cloth has raised the level of revelation skills, this is not its real usage. It must have a more important meaning..."
Chapter 416 The Holy Cloth
Ai Hayasaka slowly unfolded the supreme sacred object of the Vatican, a large linen cloth like a curtain, but the surface was as smooth as delicate silk, and even exuded a faint fragrance.
If it were held in direct sunlight, the linen would be engraved with the figure of a tall man, with long hair and beard, and a resolute and square face.
The famous Shroud of Turin is regarded as the linen cloth covered by Jesus after being stabbed to death by Longinus. Three days later, the Son was resurrected in the stone tomb, preaching and preaching in the world. The sacred objects 2000 years ago came across time, which is the iron proof that Christians regard them as miracles.Not to mention the background setting of Xingyue online games, the real Shroud of Turin is also sacred.
Since it is such a powerful holy relic, it will cause a miracle, and the improvement of the revelation skill is indeed a surprise.
It's a pity that Ai Hayasaka wants to use it actively, but she suffers from no way.
She is like an adventurer who has found a treasure, but does not have the key to open it.Although this is an enviable annoyance to others, Sheng Kebu is just tasteless at this stage.
"The pope can use the holy relic to summon heroic spirits, but I can't do it after learning his spells. Maybe this is not the correct usage."
"Either I have a chance to ask Da Vinci in the future..."
Ai Hayasaka came up with a hypothesis about the secret of the holy skeletal cloth: that it was a replica made by the artist Leonardo da Vinci, and it was just a prank idea.The real holy relic of that year has disappeared in the long river of time of 2000 years, and can never be found again.
After making up her mind, Hayasaka Ai stopped thinking about it, and she was going to leave for Munich to attend the talks.
The last time the Prussian-Prussian-Austrian summit meeting was held at the Palace of Versailles was not formal enough. The greatest significance was to create momentum for Dieng’s visit to Tsarist Russia and force Alexander I to make concessions and sign a treaty.
However, this time is different. In order to take care of the interests of the Tsar, a reasonable agreement must be reached on the Polish issue.Alexander I sends the signal: the redistribution of Polish territories.This means that Prussia and Austria, which participated in the agreement back then, will participate, and France, the suzerain country of these two countries, is no exception.
The Tsar was very proactive. He seemed to have a strong hand, so he said openly that he would hold a summit meeting.Ai Hayasaka is keenly aware of this. In her past experience, the more eager the enemy is to seek something, the more she has an advantage in this regard.
Although the tsar would call for further diplomacy even if the tsar did not mention talks with France, Alexander I's initiative is indeed rare. Could it be that he has something to rely on?
None of this, however, would alter France's course.
What is the plan of this young ruler, the truth will naturally come to light after meeting.
Ai Hayasaka hoped to use the partition of Poland to numb the vigilance of the Tsar, so that he did not feel that France would attack Tsarist Russia, and it was also a diplomatic breakthrough for Britain to see France.
Although the small calculations on both sides were crackling, they both needed such a meeting, so they readily accepted the invitation.
The Prussian side took the initiative to propose the host, which will be in Munich three days later.
"Where is Stacia?" Ai Hayasaka asked the maid before departure, "Go and ask her if she is interested in going to Munich together. This will be a moment in history."
"My lord marshal restarted the investigation of the Assassin's Creed organization. She has been on the Champs Elysees recently."
"Then don't bother her, tell San Song to be ready to support at any time."
