Warlock Royal Family

Chapter 212 Goriti Archon

() Despite its giant claws constantly attacking the giant shark in the form of Hayreddin, the siege crab was pushed out of the bay, and the pirate ships left one by one from the sea filled with Hayreddin's blood.

Relying on the help of a few water-dwelling demons transformed by demon believers and the poor performance of the commander of the siege crab, Hayreddin barely retreated to his flagship.

In any case, Hayreddin finally escaped from the outflank of the Venetian fleet with more than half of the pirate ships.

After fighting for too long and with the gift Earl Slam left on his shoulders, Hayreddin has already reached his limit.

However, after dozens of the bravest pirates died under the claws of siege crabs, he decided to transform into a giant shark to fight again. Thousands of pirates in the bay were worried about their leader. At this moment, these human garbage felt The respect and gratitude to the leaders they had never had in their lives was no longer the authority established through cruelty and massacre. Hayreddin established a completely different authority from the pirate leaders in the past.

Hayreddin did not abandon them. A leader should not abandon his subordinates. This universal rule does not apply in the world of pirates.

However, Hayreddin chose to abide by this rule, which gave him great prestige, even overshadowing his losses calculated by the Venetians this time.

But the biggest victor in this battle is undoubtedly the Goriti Consul. When he came out of the cabin under the belly of the siege crab, the sunset had once again descended on the port of Trieste, and more than fifteen pirate ships It was sunk or did not withdraw in time and was blocked in the bay and was forced to surrender. The Venetian fleet was still chasing.It is certain that the Barbary pirates will not have the courage to enter the Adriatic Sea for a long time.

Although the counterattack of Jevich and Cassano Cavaliers restored a little dignity, the Austrian Navy, like its home port of Trieste, did not exist any more. Gone was the challenge, too, that had long threatened the Venetian Republic from Ladislaus bringing a trading fleet to the enlarged port of Trieste.

"Thank you for your generosity and the timely rescue of the Venetian navy. Today's battle is evidence of the profound friendship between the people of Austria and Venice. The Austrian people will never forget today." Ladislaus still had to receive him in accordance with diplomatic etiquette anyway. The head of the Venetian Republic, especially the allies of the Europa pantheon, was actually dispatched by the consul himself.

"The Kingdom of Spain also thanks you for your help." Princess Catherina didn't expect to have the opportunity to be the hostess so soon. Although she wanted to escape several times just now, she came here impatiently to share the glory of victory.

But she didn't expect that the person in front of her was the man behind the scenes who almost sent her to the Istanbul Palace.Strange about Ladislaus's diplomatic language.

"Please don't say that, we are late." The Goriti consul wearing a Woking cloak held Ladislaus's hand while looking affectionately at the ruined Rias In Teport, he realized that Ladislaus's diplomatic language was unique and exquisite.

But in any case, no matter how sophisticated the diplomatic language is, it will not damage the great advantages of the Republic of Venice.

"It's a pity that I can't show you the scenery of the port of Trieste. I suggest that we go to Friuli to hold a banquet in honor of His Royal Highness the Consul." Frenzberg lost no time in proposing to disgust the complacent Goriti Archon.

Friuli is a territory that the Republic of Venice has just ceded to Austria.

"Thank you for your kindness, but there is no need. I will lead my army to continue chasing down the Barbary pirates. Their home port is the port of Ragusa. These thieves have sheltered the pirates of demon believers in the name of the dark sun. It is not once or twice. Now, this time is a good time to wipe them out.” The Republic of Ragusa was a tiny port city-state surrounded by Ottoman territory.This city-state not only maintained its politics but also its beliefs. The Ottoman Empire allowed them not to convert to the Great Demon of the Stars and the Moon, and was only satisfied with collecting a few thalers of tribute every year, leaving behind the trade competitors of the Republic of Venice. The seaport with a population of 1 is allocated one-tenth of the trade quota to Venice, and the Venetians have long wanted to destroy it.

"Then I wish you success." Ladislaus cursed these Venetians and pirates to die.

"Thank you for your blessing, but the reason why I came here is because of two requests."

"Two requests, based on your help to us today, two requests will not be too few." This time it was Frenzberg who spoke.

The Goriti consul, who enjoyed the other party's sarcasm, made his request indifferently. "Hehe, the first request is that you can help the Republic of Venice deal with these captured pirates, and all the pirates will belong to you. I heard that you plan to rebuild the city of Vienna and you must need labor."

Some of the captured pirates surrendered to the Venetians, and some rushed to the shore to surrender to the Austrians. Now Goriti proposes to hand over all these people to himself?

"I am really touched by your help. I think I should hand over all the captured pirate ships to you so that we can get what we need?" Ladislaus no longer used any hints when it came to substantive issues. language to avoid any possible misunderstanding.

"I'm really touched that you think so, I praise your piety and wisdom." Goriti didn't expect Ladislaus to go on the road like this. "The second request is that the Republic of Venice is willing to give you another 12 thalers of wood and [-] thalers of stone to contribute to the new Vienna." The actual value of this gift is about [-] to [-] depending on the quality of the building materials. Thaler.

"So how can I repay the kindness of the Republic of Venice this time?" Ladislaus couldn't see what else he could trade.Although the Goriti consul described the transaction as a kind of goodwill that did not exist between each other.

"I dare to ask Her Royal Highness to allow us to repair the injured capital ship." It is not only the Ottoman Sultan who wants to own the structure of the capital ship, the Venetians also have the same desire, although the first foreign sailing ship is a Venetian shipbuilding The masterpiece of the factory, but now Seville has the technology that is the best in Europe.

"Bold." Katharina ignored diplomatic etiquette.He loudly reprimanded the Goriti consul.

Although Ladislaus immediately stopped her further actions with cold eyes, he also looked at the Goriti Consul coldly and said: "I think I must reject your kindness on behalf of Her Royal Highness, we have ability to repair our own ships."

This problem is not a problem of hundreds of thousands of thalers.

Although the proposal of the Goriti Consul is not actually money, the task on his head is "to form an alliance with the Republic of Venice and economic assistance at the expense of Spanish shipbuilding technology."

The building materials of hundreds of thousands of talers are just the beginning, and there will be benefits later.

But Ladislaus refused without hesitation. Although he had many conflicts with His Majesty Emperor Ferdinand, the limit of the warlock royal family's internal struggle is insult and provocation. He must not cross that line, and he himself cannot convince himself Describe acts of betrayal among loved ones as political choices.
