Heroes of Silver Moon Chapter 755

The ninth year of the Armistice Agreement between the Silvermoon Kingdom and the Empire.

In the king's study, Mike handed over a bill to Simon: "Your Majesty, the second batch of national debts will soon be due. What do you think should be done?"

After the abolition of the enfeoffment system, the Silver Moon Kingdom went to war with the Empire non-stop.

In addition, the treasury was already empty, so the king had no choice but to borrow millions of gold coins from the nobles. This was the first batch of national debts of the Silver Moon Kingdom.

Later, because the debts owed could not be honored, the king had no choice but to face the whole country and issued the second batch of national debts, and barely honored the debts of the nobles by tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

Now, the second batch of national debts is about to expire, because the debts owed are too large. Even if they tear down the east wall to pay the west wall again this time, they are doomed to be unable to fully honor the debt owed.

And once these national debts for all citizens fail to be honored on time, it will deal a fatal blow to the official reputation of the Silver Moon Kingdom.

Even if the aristocracy and the old-fashioned faction do not make trouble behind their backs, the anger of the people will destroy the new law that has been implemented with great difficulty.

Looking at the arrears of more than 10 million gold coins on the bill and the deposit of 500,000 gold coins in the treasury, Simon suddenly felt dizzy.

In the past nine years, in order to make the Silver Moon Kingdom develop rapidly, he has poured all the money raised through national debt into it. No matter how much money he makes now, it is impossible to fill such a big hole.

In the study, Simon was thinking hard, while Mike just watched him silently. The two of them spent from morning to evening in a daze, but they just couldn't think of a way to solve the debt they owed.

Just when the two were at a loss, the naval commander Guy knocked on the door and walked in. He took an information sheet in front of Simon, and said excitedly: "Simon, I found the location of the Sea Clan Kingdom!"

Simon's eyes narrowed. A long time ago, the Sea Clan frequently invaded the coastline of the Silvermoon Kingdom and plundered the merchant ships of the Silvermoon Kingdom.

After the empire imposed a diplomatic blockade on the Silvermoon Kingdom, the Silvermoon Kingdom could only obtain urgently needed supplies through smuggling by merchant ships.

Under such circumstances, the Sea Clan bandits who frequently robbed merchant ships became a serious problem, so Guy has been interrogating those Sea Clan captives, hoping to know the location of the Sea Clan base camp.

It is said that the kingdom of the sea tribe is located in the deep sea, and it is quite difficult to locate it. In addition, the ordinary sea tribe crew members are not very proficient in navigation, so they have always been able to obtain very little information.

However, there will always be some Sea Clan captains among the captives. By piecing together the information obtained from them, a general position can be obtained after a long time.

But in the vast sea, only a general direction is not enough, so Guy, the commander of the navy, sent countless reconnaissance ships.

Reconnaissance, course correction, reconnaissance, course correction...

Through bit by bit efforts and the sacrifices of countless explorers, they finally got a glimpse of the specific location of this serious problem.

It's on an archipelago 9,800 nautical miles away, 34 degrees east by south of the Silver Moon Kingdom!

Countless sea tribes inhabit here, countless sea tribe robbers set sail from here, and countless treasures looted by sea tribe robbers are all on this archipelago!

Simon kept beating on the desk with his hands, and murmured: "Nine thousand and eight hundred nautical miles! Can our fleet go so far to fight?"

You know, this is not on Blue Star. Countless sea beasts with extraordinary power live in the sea. The deeper you go into the ocean, the more dangerous it is.

Therefore, until now, the ocean trade and ocean wars of the main continent have always been concentrated in the offshore area, and the deep sea area has always been a restricted area, shrouded in fog.

When he thought of going to such a far place to fight, he was somewhat at a loss...

Guy was silent for a moment, and said: "If the Iron Fleet is dispatched..."

Simon directly vetoed this idea: "No, the Iron Fleet is the trump card. Unless it is a critical moment to determine the outcome, it must not be leaked!"

Since the break with the empire, the human gods have been staring at the Silver Moon Kingdom. Once they leave the fog of divine power set by the goddess of moonlight, any of their trump cards will be directly exposed.

And the hole card that was exposed will no longer be the hole card...

Guy said: "But we need this war to eradicate the serious trouble of the Sea Clan!"

Mike also said: "Yes, we need this war. As long as we can plunder the accumulation of the Sea Clan Kingdom, then our debts can be fulfilled as scheduled!"

Simon was silent for a moment, and said: "In that case, let's pray that our brave and fearless marines can conquer the sea with sailing warships!"

Guy and Mike also fell silent.

If the steel fleet cannot be dispatched, then they can only rely on the primitive sail fleet, and relying on the primitive sail warships to go to the deep sea to fight, it is bound to pay a lot of casualties.

…

For this expedition, in order to reduce resistance, Simon did not announce it to the public, and all supplies and personnel were dispatched secretly.

Although there were still many nobles and officials who faintly smelled a subtle aura, the king left the Silvermoon Kingdom with the expedition fleet before they could react.

Rippling blue waves, blue sky and white clouds, flying birds...

Simon stood on the bow of the flagship, looking at the distant scene, his face was neither sad nor happy. No one knew what the king was thinking, and no one dared to disturb him.

Guy came to him quietly, and said with a smile: "By the way, I have another news here. Who do you think is the king of the Sea Clan Kingdom?"

Simon thought for a while, and tentatively replied: "It can't be the raging waves, right?!"

Guy scratched his head in wonder: "Tsk, how did you guess that?!"

Simon shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "He is the only Sea Clan I know. Besides him, who else can surprise me."

Guy joked: "You are so smart, don't you look stupid to me!"

Simon gave him a blank look: "Aren't you stupid all the time?!"

Guy first heheed twice, then fell into a sigh, UUReading Book www.uukanshu.com gritted his teeth and said: "Nu Tao...is really an old friend!"

Simon's eyes narrowed, as if he was lost in memory, and said with emotion: "Yeah, I didn't expect such a long time to pass in a blink of an eye!"

How many years ago was that, eighteen or nineteen years, he couldn't remember exactly.

Anyway, when he was still the lord of Xinfa, the old king invited him to build a ship in order to deal with the raging waves.

Of course, he didn't know the name at the time, but he learned about it through the Hai Clan captives later.

He led people to defeat the fleet led by Raging Waves... well, that naval battle might be called a fleet chaos, but who cares? Anyway, he won in the end!

Fu Tao, who was lucky enough to survive, fled to the deep sea, and somehow hooked up with the Sea Clan Kingdom.

When the Red Scorpion Khanate attacked the Silvermoon Kingdom, Nu Tao led the way for the then King of the Sea Clan and took the opportunity to invade the coastline of the Silvermoon Kingdom.

At that time, the naval fleet of the Silver Moon Kingdom was nearly wiped out, and Guy's father-in-law, Viscount Doyle, also died for his country.

Later, the Sea Clan Kingdom, which has always kept a low profile, began to loot human merchant shipping routes on a large scale.

For the Silvermoon Kingdom, whose diplomacy was blocked and needed to rely on smuggling by sea to obtain urgently needed supplies, it was no less than one disaster after another.

New revenge! Old hate! Country hate! Family Feud!

The grievances of the past will be settled this time! !
