"I understand, I understand.

I will only say this between us.

In public, the Principality of Sidon has always admired the rise of the Blackstone Kingdom.

The rise of such a big country can effectively promote the development of this star region and enhance the status of this star region."

The Grand Duke of Sidon waved his hands repeatedly under Xia Longque's gaze. Only then did Xia Longque look away.

"The First Squadron of the Directly Affiliated Fleet has completed preparations for deployment.

I will lead the army to attack the Blood Rose Earldom tomorrow.

Expected in half a month.

The Earldom of Blood Rose will become part of His Majesty's direct domain"

"Thank you for your hard work, Xia Longqueqing.

When I succeed, I will not hesitate to reward you!"

The Grand Duke of Sidon said solemnly. On

May 1st, the fleet directly under the Grand Duke of Sidon went into battle.

After joining the fleets of some local lords, it gathered into an army with more than a thousand warships.

On May 5th, the army faced blood. The Earl of Rose.

Faced with the conquest from the Grand Duke in the name of"injustice".

The Earl of Blood Rose, which did not have the upper hand in justice, failed to receive much assistance.

Only a few local nobles sent a small fleet as symbolic support..

Mobilizing all the strength, we can only assemble a fleet of 300 fire warships.

The strength of the army is very different, and it is impossible to face the enemy head-on. In addition, there is no danger in the territory of the Blood Rose Earldom.

Soon.

Archduke Sidon's crusade The fleet marched all the way to the capital of the Earldom of Blood Rose!

Until the Rose Fortress.

Rose Fortress refers to a fortress-shaped planet.

It is also the capital star of the Earldom of Blood Rose.

The three members of the Earldom of Blood Rose Hundreds of warships used the fortifications here to form a confrontation with the expedition fleet.

"Your Excellency, the other two earls only agreed to mediate when necessary. unless……"

The female officer of the Imperial Guard brought back another piece of bad news.

An Yu had a headache, but she didn't reach out to rub her forehead.

She has long been accustomed to maintaining a perfect appearance in front of her subordinates.

As the first countess of the Principality of Sidon.

She needs to do more than any other noble!

"Those two old stubborns.

Do you really think that the Duke of Sidon will be satisfied if you make some concessions?

There is the poisonous snake Xia Longque.

The appetite of the Duke of Sidon will never end!

What they want to do is to completely change the loose overall structure of the Principality of Sidon and form a centralized and powerful royal family.

Every step of concession today will strengthen the opponent's strength!

It's like a domino effect.

If the Earldom of Blood Rose falls.

Well, as the first domino falls.

The entire local aristocratic system will collapse in a chain reaction!"

An Dingbang said coldly.

He is An Yu's cousin, and he is also the commander of the fleet directly under the Earl of Blood Rose.

At the beginning, among the branches of the Anshi family, no one chose to compete with An Yu for the position of earl.

That is An Yu has been fighting for it since he was a child.

It is also due to the consistent family tradition of the Anshi family.

An Yu was able to inherit the position of earl as a daughter.

The unity within the family is also one of the important reasons.

Of course, it cannot be entirely blamed."Pig teammate".

An Yu actually understands.

The reason why the local nobles have an ambiguous attitude.

The Blood Rose Earldom's consistent style of not taking sides is also a big factor.

The unfinished meaning in the official saying of the Guardswoman.

Refers to It is the condition put forward by the local nobles.

It is the same as the previous suggestion of the Grand Duke of Sidon.

As long as An Yu can agree to the marriage conditions of either party - a purely nominal one, he can keep the Earldom of Blood Rose.

In this regard.

Earldom There is no shortage of supportive suggestions within the family.

After all, the secret of An Yu's unmarried pregnancy can be kept secret from the outside world. But within the family, it is impossible to keep it hidden forever.

No matter who the target is, it has never been shown in all these years. , An Yu never mentioned it. Everyone respects her privacy and personal choice.

But they all think that there is no need for An Yu to think too much about reputation issues because of this factor.

Because no matter it is the Grand Duke, It was also a marriage proposed by the local nobles.

They only required a nominal marriage relationship.

For An Yu himself, apart from the above aspects, it had almost no impact.

But An Yu firmly disagreed.

For this reason, there are many people in the family. Some people have complaints.

The Earldom of Blood Rose is not just An Yu alone.

It also has the interests of the Anshi family living in it!

"The local nobles will take action.

Those old guys know better than we do.

They are currently waiting and watching.

On the one hand, they are putting pressure on us, hoping that I will agree to their marriage proposal.

On the other hand, it is weakening the strength of our county.

We have grown too fast in the past few years.

It touched a lot of people's nerves."

An Yu's cold voice soothed An Dingbang's anxious mood.

"With the Rose Fortress as its backing, even if the military strength is at a disadvantage, it can still be achieved by sticking to the last few months."

An Dingbang thought for a while and said confidently.

"The opponent's commander is Xia Longque, a famous general who leads a group of ragtag people and is capable of holding a stalemate with the Faruleon Kingdom.

We must not be careless."

An Yu frowned her delicate eyebrows and reminded

"Do not worry.

If my opponent hadn't been Xia Longque, I could have defended it for a year!

I know Xialongque is very strong.

So I just plan to stick to it and give up any plans to take the initiative.

Although this method cannot win, it cannot force the crusade fleet to retreat by its own strength.

But it is the safest.

If it’s a month, it’s at least a month!

Just hope.

Within a month.

Those old guys from the local nobles can take action."

An Dingbang patted his chest and was sure of it.

Seeing that he lowered his attitude so low,

An Yu couldn't say more.

If he continued, he would question Andingbang's ability and dignity as a commander.

But. An Yu is still wary of Xia Longque. After graduating from the Royal Sky Survey Academy in the Bauhinia Kingdom and returning to China, Xia Longque is still the only one who, in her heart, can compare with that man in terms of ability. An illegitimate child. He was born in a commoner family, but in a short time, he was able to lead the family behind him, step on the space elevator, and fly forward. He was born a commoner, but in a short period of time, he became one of the small groups at the top of the Principality of Sidon. Dominate the changes in the principality. An Yu claims to be an elite among the elite, otherwise she would not have gained the nickname"Blood Rose" so early. But compared to the two men mentioned above, the gap is really not a tiny bit! She sometimes even I have also thought about what kind of achievements such a hero would have achieved at his current age if he were born in the fire human civilization and among the big families of the top empires. Will there be such a thing among those top empires? A hero? In comparison, whether it was the Grand Duke of Sidon or the marriage partner proposed by the local nobles, An Yu simply couldn't bear to read it. How could she agree? Besides. Even after a one-night stand, she would She has no further contact with that man. But if she agrees to this so-called marriage - even if it is only in name. Once the man finds out, what will be her reaction? Will she laugh it off, or get furious? No, no, with that man His style of dealing with things. Is it not that the marriage partner will suddenly"disappear" in a few days? Thinking of this, An Yu couldn't help but curl up the corner of her mouth, revealing a sweet smile. On her cold face, it added A little brighter. Then, she suddenly woke up. She was not alone now. Looking up, she saw the surprised eyes of everyone in the conference room. She forced down the little bit of shyness. She said solemnly:" To the local nobility, we might as well make some concessions in a few monopoly businesses. In this current situation, the benefits that should be given up must be given up. The focus of the next step should not be on the other two earls. The rise of the Blood Rose Territory directly affects their interests. We tried our best to win over a few veteran viscounts. They don't even need to send troops. As long as they reaffirm their stance on centralization and restructuring in the near future. Then, just question the fact that Faruleon has not fulfilled its promise to cede all the territory. It is impossible for the Grand Duke to let Xia Longque leave his side for a long time. Especially as trouble mounts. As long as Xia Longque leaves. Even if the expedition fleet did not retreat. With those rabble. It is impossible to defeat the Rose Fortress!"
