Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage
Chapter 119 War is declared again (1)
Kristen was also stunned when she heard the news.
Because of maritime trade, she knew that the Count of Galicia in the Kingdom of Iberia was also along the coast, and the largest city was the Port City of A Coruña, but that was all.
The two sides are located in two countries that are far apart by land, and they are separated by sea from the Bay of Biscay, which takes three days to sail, so they have never crossed paths. She really can't think of a reason for the other party to declare war on her.
Not only her, but everyone else present was also puzzled. After all, a nobleman at the level of a field earl would not easily declare war on a nobleman of the same level, let alone a nobleman from two countries that are far apart.
"Does it say the reason for the declaration of war?" Christine asked.
"Yes, Earl Stewart, please take a look." The butler handed over the magic letter raft.
After everyone saw it, they realized that the cause of the matter was Earl of Rennes, to be precise, the son of the old Earl of Rennes, the current Earl of Miladre Rennes.
It is normal for nobles to intermarry with each other. Count Miledre Wren's sister, Reese Wren, married the Count of Galicia in Iberia.
Now Count Miledre Renn has arrived in the Earl of Galicia. After negotiation, his brother-in-law, Count Zaric Galicia, decided to help his uncle regain the land lost due to the failure of the war.
According to the "Nobles Convention", Count Miledre Renne has this right, and the Count of Galicia is both related to him and a human noble, so he also has this qualification. On the contrary, Christine still cannot draw on the power of foreign races, and neither the dragon race nor the elves can participate.
What Christine didn't understand was that the old Earl of Rennes launched a declaration of war with the help of a master mage. As a result, people died and the territory was lost. Who gave the Earl of Galicia the courage to declare war? The God of Courage?
This is no joke, the Kingdom of Iberia was founded by the holy blood of Torm, the god of courage and loyalty. Of course, he only has weak divine power, and he was able to establish a country because he formed an alliance with the goddess of joy, Liara (not the goddess of love), so most people in the kingdom believe in the god of courage and the goddess of joy.
The count of Galicia believed in the goddess of joy.
But war cannot rely on courage alone. Galicia must have something to rely on if it dares to go to war. Count Petro Navarro of the Kingdom of Iberia happened to be present, so Christine asked him for advice.
"Count Heinz, can someone send you a map?" Count Navarro asked.
"Hold on."
After a while, a map of the continent was spread on the table.
Because the map was copied from the ancient Magical Empire of Netheril, the outline of the continent is clearly marked. Since each country was established later, the national boundaries can be seen roughly. The location of the capital and some important cities are all marked, and the error between the map and the actual situation is only about 50 kilometers.
Count Navarro pointed to the map and said: "This is the junction of the Kingdom of France and the Kingdom of Iberia. Close to the border on the Kingdom of Iberia is the Basque County, and then the Cantabria Half-Elf Territory. The Count of Asturias, and finally the Count of Galicia.”
"You must know that the army needs permission from the other party to pass through the noble territory. Even if the nobles of the Kingdom of France agree, the nobles of the Kingdom of Iberia will probably not agree except for the Cantabrian Half-Elf Territory."
Master Reeseg Sethi said doubtfully: "Since the soldiers of Earl Stewart can't get through, then the army of Earl of Galicia can't get through either, so why declare a war?"
Count Navarro pointed to the map and said: "Count Stewart, please mark the city of Dominaria."
Kristine took out a gold coin and placed it on the map: "This is probably right here."
"This is the city of Dominaria, and this is the city of A Coruña in the Earl of Gallia." Count Navarro drew a straight line between the two and said: "The two cities can be said to be separated by a few miles. The Firth of Skye lies in the distance."
Therefore, the outcome of this war depends on naval power.
Christine asked for advice: "Count Navarro, I know that the naval power of the Count of Galicia is very strong, but do you know the details?"
Count Navarro nodded approvingly and said: "Count Stuart has asked the key to the question. The navy of the Earl of Galicia is very powerful. There are two four-masted battle cruisers, four three-masted heavy cruisers, and ten double-rigged cruisers. corvettes, and dozens of sloops.”
Lord Lennet Pacheco was shocked: "A count has such naval strength?"
Count Navarro nodded and said: "The Count of Galicia is a local noble with a strong navy in the kingdom."
Christine asked curiously: "What is the size of the navy of the Kingdom of Iberia?"
Count Navarro replied: "It is five times the size of this. This does not include the sailing battleships. The name of the Iberian Armada is not for nothing."
Later, Christine knew why the Kingdom of Iberia was established by the bloodline of the God of Courage, but this true god was still weak in divine power.
Most people in Catalonia, where the fleet's home port is located, believe in the god of the sea. This is for historical reasons. Moreover, the territory was delimited by the Goddess of Joy to three duchies, as well as an earldom that believed in the dragon god and a half-elf earldom that believed in the elf god system. This did not include the noble territories that believed in other true gods.
Lord Lennet Pacheco asked again: "I would like to ask, Earl Stewart, how many warships are in your territory."
"A three-masted heavy cruiser and a dozen sloops."
"Well, it looks like the gap is quite big."
How big is this? It's very big. This means that the navy of the Earl of Galicia can blockade the Port of Dominaria and cut off the maritime trade of the Stewart Territory. This is a huge loss for Christian.
Moreover, the coastline of the Stewart Territory is very long. With sea control, soldiers from the Galician Territory can land and harass anywhere.
Master Reeseg Sethi said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter if the navy is strong. Count Stewart has a record of killing master-level mages. Just kill the Count of Galicia."
Count Navarro smiled and said: "The Count of Galicia lives in the port city of La Coruna, where there is an intermediate mage tower belonging to their family, as well as several intermediate and high-level mage towers."
Master Reeseg touched his nose in embarrassment: "Oh, that's really not easy to handle."
Not to mention whether you can sneak into the opponent's city without being discovered, even if you get in, the mage tower defended by high-level mage is not something that Christine can break through at this stage.
It seems that we can only find another way.
