After once again confirming that Austria would definitely support sending troops to rescue Rhodes Island, Knight Deverich left under the escort of several guards.

"In any case, this knight is very valuable." After several trials, Sazastan confirmed that Ladislaus still needs him. His performance is worthy of a politician, he can afford to take it and let it go, and now he is very active.

Put in the work.

"Are you not interested in supporting the Knights Hospitaller?" Although Ladislaus gave Sazarstan a lot of trouble, he still valued the other party's opinion.

"How this matter proceeds depends only on His Majesty Ferdinand's decision. If His Majesty the Emperor is still stationed in the Netherlands, it will be impossible to assemble the main force of the Spanish Offshore Fleet to rescue the Knights Hospitallers. The navies of other European countries combined are not from the Ottoman Empire.

Opponent." Sazastan seemed less optimistic.

"I have never asked you, how much will it cost the Kingdom of Spain to assemble a main fleet?" Sazastan is the most qualified person in the world to answer this question.

"The cost of assembling is very high. The Spanish Offshore Fleet, which has more than fifteen galenines and nearly a hundred large or giant sailing and oar-equipped ships, is the most important asset of the Kingdom of Spain. These fleets are not only the pillars of force but also economic ties.

, last year the Kingdom of Spain received gold and silver worth half a million talers and rare output of the same value from the New World. I predict that this number will double in five years and will eventually reach more than two million. Of course, the various governors of the New World

We also need weapons, armor, horses and personnel supplies provided by the mainland. The New World is a brand new world. If it were me, I would never suggest that His Majesty the Emperor risk losing a world to save a small island, even Venice and Liguori.

Asia’s fleet does not have as important an economic value as the Kingdom of Spain’s overseas fleet.” Even though he is no longer the Prime Minister of Spain, Sazastan can still show his enthusiasm for the cause of the Kingdom of Spain. After all, the Austria-Spain alliance is fully guaranteed.

The common enemy is, on the one hand, the royal family with the same surname.

"However, the Spanish fleet may not be unable to interfere in Mediterranean affairs in the future. When I was in Spain, I planned to implement an idea to gather the ships of the Kingdom of Spain that can cross the Atlantic Ocean and use Seville or Cadiz as the base camp every year under favorable winds.

Set off to the New World and cross the ocean, then disband and go to their respective destinations. On the return trip, they will regroup in Havana or Vera Cruz and then return to Europa together. This can greatly improve efficiency and safety, which can greatly reduce the proportion of smuggling trade and bring more benefits to the Kingdom of Spain.

To bring more tax revenue. Such an organized fleet can directly carry out war within two round trips, avoiding protracted gatherings and delays."

This is indeed an amazing idea, so that the Spanish fleet can play both military and economic roles.

"Treasure Fleet!" Ladislaus suddenly realized that this plan would be a great operation that would go down in the annals of naval history.

"Yes, Treasure Fleet, this name is really good. The treasures of the New World will improve Spain's financial situation, and the emperor will definitely benefit you as well." Although Sazastan had tried his best to deduct the subsidies Spain gave to Austria in the past

, but from then on his mission was reversed.

"Haha, this kind of thing is too far away. And we have gone too far off topic." Ladislaus gestured to Margarita to pour another glass of wine for His Highness Sazastan, "Then for the Knights Hospitaller, only

Can we leave him to fend for himself?"

"That's the same thing. Let His Majesty the Emperor decide. We can just express our sympathy and moral support. Anyway, we are really helpless, but we must be prepared to take over the property of the Knights Hospitaller in the Holy Roman Empire.

The leader of the Deverich branch seems to be a very loyal and steadfast person, will he support us?"

Many German nobles, big and small, would also donate some land and property to the Knights while sending their second sons to the Knights. Although it was fragmentary, it was still a large sum accumulated over hundreds of years.

Both the Teutonic Knights and the Knights Hospitaller had extensive property in Germany.

"No, no. Captain Deverich is a strong but not stubborn man. Now that the Knights Hospitallers seem to be doomed, he will not go against the current, not to mention that his support will be properly rewarded. I

We have an old relationship with him. He will definitely not refuse to exchange the Knights' property for my support of his family. When Jones comes back from Naples, I will ask him to check whether the Deverich family has anything to build.

material."

"Haha. Your Highness is wise." Sazastan immediately began to flatter him.

"I not only want to take over all the heritage in Austria, but I also want to intervene in all other territories within the Holy Roman Empire. His Majesty Ferdinand's power can be used for my use." Ladislaus suddenly discovered that the emperor's laurel crown was of great importance to him.

Appeals can be helpful.

"But it is difficult to manage those small territories, and the major princes will definitely unite to oppose the Habsburg family's expansion of territory." It is difficult to take over donations of only a few dozen acres and a few shops, and the cost is too high

big.

"I just need to go through one process. I have the support of Captain Deverich. Every noble who wants to get these lands needs my acquiescence and wants me to sign. They can't let my hard work be in vain.

"

Margarita found two jackals and after studying for a long time, she came up with a plan to "prepare to divide the inheritance" in response to the drowning man's request for help.

Compared with the helplessness and resignation during the "rescue", I was really inspired when I "divided the money".

Although the two villains had a fierce conflict yesterday, since cooperation between the two gods was still the mainstream, both parties naturally temporarily restrained their demands and reached a compromise, so they quickly and enthusiastically devoted themselves to the common cause.

Her breasts had been leaning on Ladislaus's arm for a long time. He kept squeezing them here and there when he was studying the rescue plan. However, after entering into the study of the partition plan, there was almost no response from the man. It seemed that compared to the hospital

The Legacy of the Knights, these two whom Ladislaus called "the whitest and most charming best friends" last night, were helplessly defeated.

But of course she wisely kept her mouth shut. Ladislaus had done him a great favor by allowing her to listen, and it would have been a shame if she dared to speak.

What's more, this is a normal thing in life. Weakness can lead to greed rather than compassion.

She just silently poured another glass of wine for each of them.

Then they just listened quietly as they further studied how much flesh the Knights Hospitaller's body contained.
