- Chapter 746 - Miss Fallen Deer and Miss Judge
The battle at St. Augustine Plantation was just a microcosm.
The British Empire’s army launched a large-scale landing in the coastal areas of Florida and Mississippi, and began to clear out “rebellion” on a large scale in companies.
This could not be hidden from the Texans who had a large number of spies in the Thirteen Colonies, and even from the intelligence personnel of European countries, such as the French.
Although the French forces had long withdrawn from Louisiana, it was after all its former colony. The French immigrants living there had long passed the news of the unrest in the North American colonies to their own emperor.
While gloating over the misfortune, the French immediately issued a diplomatic note asking the British to explain.
Even though British diplomats repeatedly assured that it was only to deal with the Texans, the French still claimed that this rash move of force might threaten the interests of France.
And sent the Sun King and a main fleet stationed in the mainland to the colony of the Kingdom of Spain, the port of Havana.
Since France and Spain established a co-monarchy, the declining power of the Kingdom of Spain has been alleviated to a certain extent. At least Spanish Cuba and Spanish Luzon are still in their hands, but they have to jointly develop with the French.
Speaking of joint, the impoverished Spaniards naturally cannot prevent the wealthy French from occupying a dominant position.
Not to mention the verbal battles between the two top powers that have been enemies since the Hundred Years’ War in Europe, the preparations for war and the relocation work of the Texans are also progressing in an orderly manner with the help of abundant animal power.
“It’s a pity. Such a beautiful town, I don’t know if it will still exist when I come back next time.”
“The British won’t burn, kill and plunder all the way here, won’t they want to rule this land in the future?”
“Who knows? We can’t always pin our hopes on the kindness of the enemy, can we?”
These days, Lavinia and Viviana have traveled to many places in Texas together. This wolf lady with light chestnut hair, ears and tail soon fell in love with this paradise of the wolf tribe.
And now, the wolf warriors are helping the residents of the town to move their belongings together.
People locked their doors and reluctantly left their homes under the care of the wolf soldiers.
Although there was an atmosphere of sadness and anger, there was no conflict. Instead, many residents of the town shouted that they wanted to join the border guards to fight against the invaders together.
Unfortunately, the men who were really qualified to join the army, who had military service experience, or who had been hunters, cowboys, or bounty hunters, had already been drafted into the army. The rest were given guns and sent to the battlefield, which meant they were cannon fodder.
The British in the north were slaughtering the black rebels with great ease, which was enough to prove that the number of cannon fodder was completely useless in front of the British war machine.
Miss Fallen Deer on the side said softly: “As long as there are people, even if the land and houses are taken away, Texas will not perish. Here, there is only a lack of people, and it is rare to hear that there is a lack of land.”
Lavinia nodded and replied: “Yes, the land of Texas is more vast than the entire Apennine Peninsula, but the population living here is said to have just exceeded one million.”
Viviana corrected: “Not only is it larger than the Apennine Peninsula, but all the countries in Europe except Tsarist Russia are not as large as Texas. This is the New World. With very little effort, you can get a large area of undeveloped land, but the land without people is worthless.”
“If Texas can be protected by a certain power, such as our Germany, even the British will not dare to start a war so blatantly.”
“Maybe.”
Lavinia smiled and said nothing. Miss Fallen Deer has always regarded the old emperor Franz as her godfather and has a strong filter for her country. In fact, none of the powers are doing charity. If you want to get something, you must lose something.
If they really wanted to sell themselves to the French, the Habsburg Empire, which had never been interested in overseas expansion, would not even be a more worthy suzerain than the French.
After all, the French navy was much stronger than the Habsburg navy that only bathed in the Adriatic and Baltic Seas.
She changed the subject: “Texas is completely different from Turin and Milan. When I heard Losa talk about it before, I couldn’t believe there was such a place. It was like a utopia that shouldn’t exist in the world.”
“It really shouldn’t exist in the world.”
Viviana on the side whispered: “If it weren’t for Losa’s help, this utopia would have been destroyed in the first defense of Texas.”
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly: “Looking at it this way, we are really doing a very meaningful cause. I feel that I have inspiration for my new poems.”
Lavinia couldn’t help laughing, and gently pinched Miss Fallen Deer’s delicate face: “Hehe, you and Miss Lingyun must have a lot in common. She once told me that the inspiration for her first new book has come.”
“Miss Lingyun?”
Viviana was a little stunned.
“It’s Ms. Prajna. Have you read her novels?”
Lavinia likes Miss Fallen Deer very much, although she doesn’t agree with Losa’s view that “she is very similar to you”. Compared with herself, Viviana is more like an elf wandering in the world, but they both have a compassionate heart.
This is actually very rare. Not everyone who comes from the upper class and is taught that “we are superior to others” can treat ordinary people as their own kind.
“I’ve seen the Demon Hunter series, but does Ms. Prajna have two names?”
“Yes, the past life and the present life, coexisting in one body.”
Lavinia thought for a moment and added: “To be precise, it should be before and after death. You just need to remember that the one who smiles very gently is Miss Lingyun, and the one who always has a stern face is Ms. Prajna.”
Miss Fallen Deer smiled: “Isn’t it Miss Cherinina who always has a stern face?”
“Her”
Lavinia looked back and felt guilty for saying bad things about someone behind her back: “She is different from Ms. Prajna. When Ms. Prajna has no expression on her face, it just makes you unable to see her emotions. Nina is just a blank mind.”
“Who are you talking about?”
A voice suddenly sounded, scaring Lavinia. After all, the only one who can be so elusive is Cherinina.
Looking back, they found that Losa was looking at them with a smiling face.
“Losa, you’re back!”
Miss Fawn was a little surprised. Lavinia patted her chest, which was much bigger than Miss Fawn’s: “Why are you also learning this kind of surprise attack from Cherinina?”
“Because it’s really fun.”
Losa whistled, and the eclipse was like an arrow from a string, passing over the grassland and rushing over.
“Although it’s a joke, Nia, your vigilance is too weak. It’s okay that little Anna’s strength hasn’t recovered, but I’m so close to you, you didn’t notice it, it’s not right.”
In fact, it should be.
Losa used the “magic warrior” passive provided by Miss Fawn. He was actually still far away just now. He first used mental power to eavesdrop, and then relied on mental power to focus all on agility to approach at a high speed, creating a false impression that I have been eavesdropping on you for a long time.
The judge adjusted her glasses and snorted, “As the king of a country, is this how you tease your subordinates?”
“I’m not a king in this world. It’s tiring to always have a stern face and hold my head high.”
Lothar shrugged. His “adventurer” career in the past few days made him want to throw away his “bird position” and venture into the world.
In fact, being a king in the Middle Ages was not an interesting thing. What constrained him was only his duties and the ideals in his heart.
After all, being an adventurer means being alone at most.
But there are too many things in this world that he doesn’t like. If he wants to make some real changes, he must wear this crown.
