A water column rose into the sky on the sea not far in front of the frigate at the front, and then scattered at high altitude, turning into a mass of flying water spray.
"Send the order, everyone stop." Director Aldrich looked at the dark fleet on the sea in the distance and frowned deeply. "What exactly does the Candela Imperial Navy want to do?"
After leading the third fleet of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce Transport Fleet to leave the Port of Nissi, Director Aldrich originally thought that the weather was clear and the sea was calm. If nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to enter the predetermined sea area before dark this year, and he could officially enter the sea area tomorrow. Construction began on a planned island.
In this way, the entire plan is off to a good start, and my mission this time can be considered to be completed perfectly.
However, less than three hundred kilometers away from the port of Nissi, they encountered a huge fleet flying the flag of the Candela Empire Navy.
At first, Director Aldrich didn't think there was anything strange about this. He thought the Candela Imperial Navy had some mission or it was just an ordinary exercise, so he planned to say hello and go around to continue his journey.
But they didn't expect that when they were about to get close, the Candela Empire Navy on the opposite side projected several huge rocks, which hit the sea in front of them, which was full of warning.
This surprised Director Aldrich.
Ever since the Candela Imperial Navy purchased three frigates from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the two parties have had some cooperation and the relationship between them is quite good.
The transport fleet and escort fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce often encounter the Candela Empire Navy in this southern sea. Nothing has ever happened. On the contrary, they get along very well with each other.
Why this time. But the Candela Empire Navy suddenly launched an attack on itself
Director Aldrich looked up. The large cargo magic ship that I found myself on was flying the flag of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. It is so conspicuous that the Candela Imperial Navy cannot admit its mistake.
While he was wondering, a white frigate slowly sailed out from the Kandra Empire naval fleet on the opposite side.
A moment later, a correspondent belonging to the large cargo magic ship where Director Aldrich was located hurried over with a magic talk box.
"Your Excellency, we have received a communication request from the Candela Empire Navy."
Director Aldrich frowned deeper, took the magic call box, and pressed a button on it.
"Hello, this is Aldrich, the director of the Transportation Department of the New Aviation Chamber of Commerce. Who is the Lord of the Candela Empire Navy opposite?"
A deep but loud middle-aged man's voice sounded from the magic call box.
"This is Mark Lewis, Commander of the First Fleet of the Candela Imperial Navy. Director Aldrich. Now, on behalf of the Candela Imperial Navy, I am issuing a formal warning to you. The southern waters of the Luersun Kingdom are now under a comprehensive blockade by the Imperial Navy. Any Ships are not allowed to pass through it without the permission of the empire. Your fleet has violated this prohibition, but for the sake of your membership in the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, I can make an exception and allow you to return to the Principality of Standing."
"Huh?" Director Aldrich blinked, almost unable to believe his ears. "You said you blocked the southern waters of the Luersun Kingdom? Are you serious?"
"Of course." Commander Lewis's voice became very serious. "This is the decision of the Imperial Military Department. You have no right to resist. I will give you ten minutes. Exit this sea area immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences."
"Results at your own risk?" Director Aldrich couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Although the fleet of the Kandra Empire opposite has more than a hundred ships. But he really didn't take the other party seriously.
Because the Kandra Empire Navy fleet opposite only has a total of three frigates purchased from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Compared with the ten frigates owned by our own side, their combat effectiveness is not at the same level.
The only thing that needs to be worried about is that the other two large magic cargo ships are much slower than the frigates, and they are not equipped with many military magic machines, so they basically have no combat effectiveness.
In the event of a fight, these two large cargo magic ships might become a liability.
However, the issue of combat effectiveness is not the most important issue. The most important issue is that it is impossible for him to really fight with the Candela Empire Navy Fleet.
Even if this naval battle can be won, it would be equivalent to the New Flying Chamber of Commerce officially declaring war on the Candela Empire.
The consequences of this would be extremely serious, and Director Aldrich would not dare to do this seriously.
After thinking for a while, Director Aldrich tentatively said: "Commander Lewis, we are just carrying out ordinary trade activities according to the Chamber of Commerce plan this time, and it will not cause any hindrance to your ban, right?"
"No!" Commander Lewis' decisive answer sounded from the magic call box. "You have violated this prohibition by entering this sea area during this period. If it were not for the sake of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, the first thing we would do now is to sink you. I warn you again, leave this place immediately A sea area!”
Director Aldrich was slightly angry, but looking at the vast number of more than a hundred ships opposite and the flags of the Candela Empire hanging on his clothes, he could only smile bitterly and sighed dejectedly: "Okay, let's retreat now. Go back. Commander Lewis, I will definitely go back and tell the president the truth about what happened today.”
This was a small counterattack that he was not willing to accept.
However, Commander Lewis was not moved at all, and a sneer came from the magic phone box.
"Even if President Xu himself were here, he would only make the same choice as you are making now."
Director Aldrich shook his head helplessly and nodded to the deputy beside him.
"Second order, everyone should withdraw to Port Nissi first."
The two large cargo magic ships and ten frigates belonging to the third fleet of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Transport Fleet turned around collectively and prepared to return to Nisi Port.
Unexpectedly, as soon as it started, two loud noises suddenly sounded nearby.
Aldrich turned his head in shock and saw two thick drops of water falling one after another.
He paused for a moment. Pick up the magic talking box again. He said sharply: "Commander Lewis. What do you mean?"
Commander Lewis's cold voice sounded from the magic call box.
"Director Aldrich, did your fleet just leave the Luersun Kingdom?"
"So what?" Director Aldrich swallowed these words, forced himself to calm down, and then asked in a deep voice: "Does this have anything to do with you?"
"I believe you should know that our Kandra Empire has implemented a comprehensive blockade on the Kingdom of Luersun. If you have just left the Kingdom of Luersun, you have violated this prohibition. I have reason to suspect that you ships are equipped with ships equipped with Luersun and Luxun." The personnel and materials related to the Wilson Kingdom. I now ask you to stop and accept our inspection."
"It's simply too much!"
Director Aldrich was furious, but his reason told him that he must not get angry now, otherwise he would be exposed.
After taking a deep breath, Director Aldrich forced himself to calm down again and said in a deep voice: "Commander Lewis, your suspicion is baseless. We can leave according to your request, but we will never let you get on the ship. search."
"If you refuse this request, then we will regard you as hiding something." Commander Lewis said coldly: "If you are still unwilling to cooperate, then don't blame us for being rude."
"Master in charge, the ships of the Candela Empire have moved." The deputy on the side suddenly reminded in a low voice.
Director Aldrich looked up and found that the Candela Imperial Navy fleet in the distance was indeed moving slowly. Gather around here.
Judging from this posture, they obviously intend to surround themselves and leave no room for escape.
"Master in charge, what should we do now?"
Director Aldrich squinted his eyes and glanced at the approaching Candela Imperial Navy fleet opposite him. He took a few hard breaths, then pulled his deputy over and whispered in his ear: "If something unexpected happens, ten frigates will immediately choose to break out. Don’t hesitate.”
The deputy was startled: "What about these two cargo ships?"
"These two cargo ships are too slow to escape. Just stay here and ignore them." At this point, Director Aldrich gritted his teeth and felt a pain in his heart.
Since he became the director of the third fleet of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's transport fleet, he has never had any problems with his ships. Unexpectedly, if there is a problem for the first time now, he will have to abandon two expensive large-scale cargo magic ships. The loss is indescribable. Not big.
"But… "
"Nothing to worry about." Director Aldrich prepared his deputy's words. "We can't go to war with the Kandra Empire, so we can only escape now."
The expression on the deputy's face changed, and finally he could only nodded and accepted the order.
"Go get ready, I'll delay for a while first." Director Aldrich patted the deputy's shoulder, motioned him to leave, and then opened the magic call box again. "Commander Lewis, please stop, I am willing to accept your request."
"Oh?" Commander Lewis seemed a little surprised. "Are you willing to let us upload the search?"
"Yes." Director Aldrich responded. "But this matter is too important. If I agree without permission, I will definitely be punished when I return to the Chamber of Commerce. So I hope Commander Lewis can give me some time to let me get the agreement with the Chairman or the CEO. Contact us and explain the situation.”
"Contact President Xu?" Commander Lewis said with a hint of disbelief in his tone. "This place is more than two thousand kilometers away from the Principality of Standing. How do you contact President Xu?"
"Our Chamber of Commerce has a special method that allows me to contact the president in a short time. Commander Lewis, can you give me half an hour?"
"Are you sure you can get a reply from President Xu in half an hour?"
"Sure."
There was silence in the magic call box for a while, and then the Kandra Empire naval fleet that was approaching here slowly stopped and continued to approach.
However, these ships still spread out on the sea, surrounding all the ships of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's Third Transport Fleet.
"I'll give you half an hour. If there's no reply after half an hour, I won't wait any longer." Commander Lewis's cold voice sounded in the magic call box again.
"good."
Director Aldrich agreed, and a moment later, a magic airship suddenly flew into the air from the large cargo magic ship where Director Aldrich was located, and flew quickly towards the endless sea in the northwest. (To be continued...)
