Chapter 285: Build a fleet

The Great Wall of Despair collapsed.

For Westeros, the violent shock it caused was no less than the impact that Mill's slaughter had on Esos.

After all, the two sides are separated by the sea, and Viselis has actually received the news quite late, and the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms learned of the news earlier than Viselis.

They didn't understand until this time... things were tricky.

Limited by the backwardness of information transmission tools, it takes time for an important piece of information to spread in this era.

However, reality is important information, often with strong timeliness.

Veselis held this heavy message in his hand, his face was solemn, and he couldn't see the joy or anger.

To be honest, he doesn't have much gloating emotions in his heart, but he just feels that things are a little troublesome.

The Great Wall is the only barrier for mankind to stop the ghosts. The collapse of the Great Wall means that it is much more difficult for mankind to stop the ghosts.

Viselis hopes to see the Baratheon dynasty and the alien ghost fight both losses, and then he can reap the benefits of the fisherman, not hoping to see the alien ghost completely destroy the Seven Kingdoms.

In that case, the entire Westeros would be completely reduced to ghosts, and humans would be rampant, becoming an unmanageable situation, and it might even threaten the safety of humans on this side of the narrow sea.

The problems that Veselis had been struggling with before, now it seems that there is no need to continue struggling.

Reality made the decision for him.

"How is the fleet being built now?"

Viselis read the information in his hand, then raised his head and asked.

The Dragon Stone Island fleet, loyal to the Targaryen family, encountered a surprise attack by the Royal Fleet led by Stannis on Dragon Stone Island many years ago.

The key to this battle is that Stannis bought some of the soldiers and officers of the Dragon Stone Island fleet.

In addition, the Valerian family of ‘distant relatives’, who had been standing in line and not making a statement, suddenly fell to Baratheon’s side and launched an attack on the Targaryen fleet stationed on Longshi Island.

This battle caused the Dragon Stone Island fleet to be defeated and suffered heavy losses. It was forced to retreat to the coast of Braavos, abandoning Dragon Stone Island, and at the same time lost its offensive ability against Westeros.

The commander-in-chief of the fleet, Earl Jeffrey, was also hitting an arrow in his chest during the fight, and was seriously injured.

Although he was rescued later, it also left a permanent root of the disease, and from time to time old injuries occurred.

The fleet suffered heavy losses, and the only admiral was also seriously injured. If Viselis wanted to attack Westeros in the future, he would first need to restore the Dragon Stone Island fleet.

Therefore, the Targaryen family has allocated a lot of funds in the past few years to restore the size of the fleet, the total tonnage, the number of ships, and the number of soldiers on the ship.

But at that time, the Targaryen family only controlled the area of ​​Andalus, with only a small wharf. The shipbuilding industry was extremely backward, and without the corresponding technology and capabilities, it was impossible to build a large-tonnage ship.

Later, accompanied by Viselis to the meeting, two hundred people seized the city, and all these problems were solved after they captured Pantos.

Pantos has a very prosperous port, and there are trade exchanges between the seven countries and even Yuhai and other places.

The shipbuilding industry is naturally also very developed. There are many skilled shipbuilding craftsmen who can build the largest tonnage warship. Therefore, the recovery plan of the Dragon Stone Island fleet has been restarted again.

The older generation of Dragon Stone Island fleet flagship Black Death gave up repairs due to serious injuries and was honorably retired. It is now docked in the small seaport of the Sentinel Tower.

Now the new Black Death is being built, and its tonnage far surpasses its predecessors, and it is equipped with a large number of trebuchets and giant crossbows.

At the same time, there are two other battleships built at the Port of Pantos Shipyard, second only to the flagship of the New Black Reaper. They are the dragons of Reness and Daenerys. , Rego and Vesselion named.

Jon Clinton, who was sitting in the second position from the left, was shocked when he heard Wesiris's question.

Then sorted out the useful part from the thick information and handed it to Viselis.

"His Majesty."

The new three ships were built in Pantos, and Jon Clinton had always been in charge before, so he knew everything about these ships.

Sitting diagonally across from him, Oberon, who was on the right side of Veserys, was a little boring playing with the ring in his hand, and at the same time raised his head to look at Jon Clinton.

He had just fired the opponent two months ago, but Jon didn't seem to have any resentment towards him, but his attitude remained the same, not flattering but not alienating, and even a little arrogant.

No one in the palace likes him, but no one does not fear him either.

To put it simply, this person has no friends, has a rigorous personality and does not form cliques.

Even Oberon suspected that the reason why Jon didn't resent him was because he believed that he was in line with the rules to dismiss him, because Oberon had a higher office than him and had the right to do so.

And the other side.

Viselis looked at the information Jon gave him, his face was not very good, and there was a slight frown on his brows.

Because the construction progress of the three warships, some are behind expectations.

Jon Clinton might have noticed that Veserys was a little unhappy, so he groaned slightly and explained.

"Your Majesty, the ship building is behind schedule because of the siege some time ago, and some key raw materials could not be transported in."

The construction of the three warships was somewhat slow for a reason. The city was besieged by the Dothraki some time ago, and many shipbuilding raw materials could not be transported in, and naturally they could not be started.

The three capital ships have very demanding requirements on wood, and they must be hard enough to resist moisture. They can’t refill the numbers, so a long time is wasted.

"Um~www.NovelMTL.com~ I know."

"Jon, urge them again to speed up their progress."

Veselis naturally knew what had delayed the progress of shipbuilding, and then frowned slightly.

"It doesn't matter if it is slower in peacetime, then slower."

"However, the situation on Westeros has changed drastically now, the Great Wall suddenly collapsed, the savages flooded into the north, and the Allied Forces of the Seven Nations retreated to Winterfell to arrest the savages."

"The situation is changing rapidly now."

"We may be ready to set off on an expedition to Westeros at any time, whether it is to deal with aliens or usurpers. Even if they are both in one pot, a warship is an indispensable thing."

There is no boat Viselis can fly over, but his soldiers cannot swim across the narrow sea.

Therefore, as long as the warship is not in place, Veselis can only stare at him even if he wants to plot Westeros.
