859 Each Have Their Own Plan (1/2)

Chapter 859 – Each Have Their Own Plan

Andre's suggestion caused the eyes of Caroline and Rainier to light up.

The three of them quickly came to a consensus and were prepared to seek help from the Mediterranean Lords. Their first choice was naturally Spain, who hated the Great Xia Dynasty and was the shortest distance away.

Of course, Spain was not enough, and the three of them would rather they be able to move the entire Mediterranean.

In less than an hour, Casillas, Juan, Henry, Caesar, and the top Lord of Portugal, Pedro all got the news that war had started between Morocco and the Great Xia Dynasty.

Atlantis City, which was already really exciting and busy, became even more so because of that. With the coordination and contact of the three Moroccan Lords, the thoughts of the Mediterranean Lords were led away.

Seeing that, Kalia cancelled that day's activities to allow the Lords to do their own things. Hence, everyone was naturally delighted, and Lords gathered in twos and threes to discuss with each other.

Toward this matter, the Lords had much to talk about.

Someone could not help but ask, ”The Great Xia Dynasty attacking Morocco is not something out of the blue. Has it been festering?”

”It must have been planned a long time ago,” someone else said.

”How so?”

”A country war is not a game. How could it be out of the blue? Look at the expressions of the three Moroccan Lords; they must have been caught off guard.”

The Lord could not help but nod and said worriedly, ”So Morocco might fall?”

”That's hard to say. After all, we do not understand the frontline situation. However, from their expressions, the situation does not look good. It seems like the Great Xia Dynasty Army directly attacked the imperial city Rabat.”

One Lord said, ”With the way they plan and how they usually do things, they will not act unless they are really confident. In my opinion, Morocco is highly likely to perish.”

”That's right, be it military commanding or planning, who dares to compete with them? They are like an assassin who likes to one-shot others.”

The various achievements of the Great Xia Dynasty in the wilderness had caused all the Lords in the world to fear them.

Of course, there were many who agreed and naturally many who did not.

Some Lords said, ”That might not be true, but we should not think too highly of them. No matter how strong they are, that is in the China region. They have travelled from so far to the Africa Continent. First, they do not have a logistics base, and secondly, they do not have any allies. On the contrary, Morocco has the home field advantage, so they might not lose.”

”You're right.” There were some Lords who agreed, ”The Great Xia Dynasty is too bold and arrogant. They really think that after they established their country they can look down on other countries? I think they have made a big mistake.”

”This....”

The Mediterranean Lords exchanged glances with one another, not knowing who to believe.

At this very moment, someone raised up another problem, ”Have you guys thought about what would happen to the Mediterranean if they really take down Morocco?”

Hearing those words, the expressions on their faces varied. All of them were smart and just by thinking a little, they would understand the awkward situation they were in.

If the Great Xia Dynasty took down Morocco, it would be like obtaining another strategic ground. Hence, it would solve half of the problems that the Great Xia Dynasty faced after the disbandment of the Mediterranean Alliance.

The reason within was not hard to understand.

Along with the alliance disbanding, it was impossible for the Mediterranean Squadron to continue ruling. The Spanish Invincible Squadron, the Roman Squadron, and the Gual Squadron would not allow it.

However, the smart Lords would think deeper.

What if they did not have that ambition and just wanted to guard the door to the Mediterranean?

With Jidian City and Morocco, guarding the Gibraltar Straits was not a difficult thing to do.

If that happened, what was the point of the three countries' attempts to seize power?

The Great Xia Dynasty at that time would be similar to the current Atlantis, being a supernatural existence in the Mediterranean. Any country that wanted to trade would need to listen to them.

This was the reason why they were in an awkward spot.

Some Lords said, ”So we need to help Morocco?”

”If you do not want the Great Xia Dynasty to ride on our heads in the future, it's best to act.”

”Morocco is so far away from us, so how can we help?” some of the Lords lamented.

Strictly speaking, Morocco did not belong to the Mediterranean. It had a unique geological position, which meant it did not have much contact with Africa and was pretty much a land of its own.

The only way to get there was through ocean routes.
