Chapter 289 Chapter 289 Cyric's Bad News

"Da, da, da..." The sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the beautifully decorated corridor. The stern-faced beautiful servant, holding a stack of messages, hurried through the corridor and pushed open the door at the end.

She walked to the side of the bed and reported to the beautiful red-haired woman who was hugging left and right on the bed: "My lord, the news just confirmed...Dorne has defeated the Kingdom of Hillen and the Kingdom of Tarun."

The woman lazily pulled out her lotus arms from under her naked female companion, scratched at her fluffy red hair, and asked in a long voice: "So, the news that came a few days ago is all true. ?”

Earlier, there was indeed news that the Kingdom of Dorne had achieved a comprehensive victory, defeating the two kingdoms of Hieron and Taron.

But this news has not been confirmed, and it has spread too unbelievably. In the end, Sophia can only choose to wait, waiting for the real and confirmed news to arrive.

Now, the news is here.

The maid nodded slightly, and reported: "Yes, my lord! It has been confirmed that the Tarun Kingdom's fleet has indeed been wiped out."

Because the fleet decisive battle took place at sea, and the war blocked the news transmission channel from Hongfeng Port, this news was not confirmed until now, and it was sent to Sophia.

There is no way, the lagging intelligence system has always been like this, and people in this era are also accustomed to this speed of news transmission.

On the contrary, the telegram message from Bunas was faster and more convenient-it's just that Sophia couldn't believe a single source, especially a single source of intelligence from the enemy's side.

As a decision maker, she was worried that the Datang Group would cheat and directly spread false news, which would affect her decision-making and deployment here.

The maid continued: "The news came from Bunas. There have been a large number of slaves escorted to Northridge. Among these slaves are sailors from the Kingdom of Talen."

Sophia got up from the bed, put on a silky nightgown, pulled over a chair, and sat on it showing her exquisite curves: "It's really... It makes people feel a little bit unwilling. If there is anything else, let's continue."

The naval fleet was annihilated, and Tarun Kingdom was basically eliminated in this war. Even if Dorne Kingdom did not attack it on the ground, it would not be able to resist the Datang Group's fleet at all.

Therefore, it is only a matter of time before this kingdom falls to Datang, or is completely annexed by the kingdom controlled by Datang.

"In addition, the 5 troops on the ground of the Kingdom of Hieron surrendered to Dorne and became prisoners. If nothing else, the news of the defeat of the Kingdom of Tarun's army should be true." The maid is not sad. With a displeased and calm tone, he briefly introduced the process of the Battle of Dorn.

This includes a series of operations by Dorn Shuangjie. Although it is not accurate and detailed, the information obtained from the broken soldiers from Tarun Kingdom can still prove some things.

At least, the battle was decided very quickly. While the Tarun Kingdom suffered a crushing defeat in the navy, the army also made a huge turnaround...

After listening to her maid, or her right-hand man report this, Sophia's complexion has become not so pretty.

Originally, she was in a pretty good mood these few days, because she hooked up with a baroness again, and the two of them were "passionately in love", so naturally they were full of flair.

It's a pity that the bad news of this war came one after another. Until now, Sophia felt that Cyric's council was completely unable to control the final result.

So, angrily, she grabbed a perfume bottle and threw it on the floor, letting it roll to the corner of the room: "...I thought about losing the war, but I never thought about... losing so quickly and so badly."

"My lord..." The woman on the bed who was awakened by the sound exclaimed.

"There is a little trouble in business! It's okay!" Sophia said without looking back, the woman really didn't dare to ask any more questions, put on her underwear in a hurry, and fled out of the bedroom with other clothes in her arms.

"My lord!" The maid continued after the woman left.

Sophia waved her hand: "I'm fine! I just have a headache... The current situation is actually very unfavorable to us."

She got up a little annoyed, and walked in the magnificent home, gnashing her teeth and muttering in a low voice: "We have almost lost the five kingdoms completely controlled by the Datang Group, and the current national strength of these five kingdoms is already very strong .”

The five countries of the trade alliance that have almost completely separated from Cyric's control, are indeed thriving in national strength.

Even the Pine Kingdom, which joined last and whose national strength is not strong, is completing its own industrial revolution because it has purchased a large number of machinery and equipment.

Not to mention the Poplar Kingdom, which annexed most of the Galles Kingdom, and the four kingdoms of Susas, Wright, and Dorne, which also annexed neighboring countries.

With Tang Mo's direct or indirect support, these kingdoms have already begun to absorb the dividends of war, and have begun to improve their own systems, gradually becoming kingdoms with backward systems, and transforming into more advanced and powerful capitalist empires.

Once these countries are allowed to complete the restructuring of their internal affairs, they will gain the potential to crush the neighboring countries around them, and at the same time, it will further weaken the influence of the Cyric Consortium.

"In addition, we have actually lost the Kingdom of Gmelin, the Kingdom of Shiron and the Kingdom of Tarun... As for the Kingdom of Elm and the Kingdom of Redwood... and the Kingdom of Falak... then it depends on whether we can It works..." Sophia, with an ugly face, walked back and forth in her bedroom.

"My lord, be careful of the glass..." Worried that Sofia, who was barefoot, would be hurt by fragments of the perfume bottle, the maid reminded her aloud.

"Let someone clean it up!" Sophia was startled, then walked to the balcony barefoot, opened the large floor-to-ceiling windows, and walked to the railing.

Along the way, she has been thinking about how to operate so that the remaining three countries can be preserved as much as possible, or at least not be swallowed by the Datang Group.

In the end, after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't come up with any good solution, and finally cursed angrily: "Damn it, we lost control of the three kingdoms all at once, and we are losing a lot of markets! In the future, We will become more and more unshakable, the opponent Datang Group."

"Then, Lord Sophia, what shall we do next?" The maid had never encountered such a difficult problem, so she could only ask her master honestly.

In fact, she can and has the right to deal with small things by herself—but recently, an accident occurred in this situation, but she found that she could not handle any problems with Datang Group, so she could only hand them over to Sophia Solved it myself.

"There is no good way! Go to Bunas for me." Sophia thought about it, and after about a minute of silence, she suddenly spoke to her confidant.

"Huh?" The maid was taken aback, because she really hasn't gone out to perform any missions for a long time, and ordinary opponents don't need, and it's not her turn to do it herself.

Under normal circumstances, a person in charge of Cyric can deal with problems that occur in a kingdom. The size of the Cyric consortium is too large, and there is no need for people from the council to ask trivial questions.

But now, it seems... It's not a so-called normal situation.

Sophia looked at her most capable subordinate, and ordered: "Talk to that Tang Mo, and tell him that the Cyric consortium is not monolithic, and there are still people who are willing to have a serious talk with him..."

She knew that she didn't need to elaborate, and her subordinates would understand what she meant.So, she waited for a few seconds, let her subordinates get used to the sudden decision to go on a business trip, and then continued: "Then, find a way to make him understand that money...you can't make it all by yourself. Only by defeating the opponent can we make better money.”

"What do you mean?" The maid probably understood what Sophia meant, but she still needed to confirm the details with her master.

Sophia laughed, it was so beautiful.There is confidence and pride in this smile, which makes the maid extremely obsessed: "I don't mind being his opponent! An opponent who cooperates secretly and competes on the surface! As long as I can make money, I can sell part of the profit..."

"So, what do we want?" The maid obviously understood what Sophia meant, so she asked.

"Battleships! Brand new battleships, steel battleships! And merchant ships! For this, I can secretly help and give the Kingdom of Elm, Kingdom of Rosewood, and Kingdom of Falak to the Datang Group."

"What if he doesn't agree?" the maid asked worriedly.

Sophia turned cold, squinted her eyes and answered the maid's question coldly: "If he doesn't agree, then we can only spend it, and the supplies of Datang Group will be exhausted, and we will be in a mess, and we will lose. Under...no one can get the benefits."

"But..." The maid looked at Sophia worriedly.

She knew that it would take capital to procrastinate. Once the Datang Group can quickly deal with the remaining warring countries, the initiative will be completely transferred to the Datang Group.

Therefore, the basis of the negotiations seems to be based on the question of whether the war can continue.If the war is over, it is nonsense for Cyric to want new warship technology, or to say that he wants the ocean.

Sophia looked into the distance, sighed helplessly, restrained her coldness, and said, "I know! It depends on whether the Elm Kingdom, the Rosewood Kingdom, and the Farak Kingdom can withstand his next... ...attacked!"

"Go!" After a few seconds of silence, Sophia looked at the rising sun in the distance and said, "Call me back when you arrive in Bunas."

"Yes! This subordinate understands!" The maid bowed slightly, and then exited the room.
