"I once made military achievements for the kingdom! I once made military achievements for the kingdom!!" At this moment, General Carter was thinking about this sentence.

But there is no way.

If anyone can make these guys exchanged from the system surrender? Then besides Egil, it is Aurora. In front of Aurora, the poor old general has no right to say a word.

"Okay, don't show this sad face. After all, your king is still quite polite. The offshore fleet you actually manage is still the strongest fleet in the entire kingdom." Aurora saw the old general crying so much. She also felt that it was necessary to comfort him a little, and then said such words.

Indeed, General Carter made a little calculation: Indeed, this circle of the Boluo Sea had almost always been the territory of the Norman Kingdom before.

At this moment, Egil took advantage of the chaos in the continental region and took advantage of the fact that Bo Melania and Jutland Peninsula without any mercy. In this way, unless the army loses its territory or the other party is on an expedition, there will be almost no enemies in the Bo Luo Sea. Therefore, the Bo Luo Sea fleet is the smallest and least valued.

The North Sea Fleet is just a little better than the Boluo Fleet. Because what you need to face is not important to the Navy's France and Burgundy. Therefore, the scale is not too large. Even in terms of status, it may not be as good as the Boluo Fleet. After all, the Boluo trade circle is perfect, merchant ships are scattered, and taxes are also generous...

The Atlantic Fleet is a chore. Its actual function is not so much to fight the enemy, but rather an adventure. The main task is to find islands for inhabitation and colonization in the vast Atlantic Ocean. And to try to find what Egir said, the legendary New World Atlantic Ocean. This is a life-and-death mission. Compared to the Atlantic Ocean, the Boluo Sea and the North Sea have all become small ponds. The Mediterranean Sea are just a big bathtub. Just talk about the mission one after another. General Carter went out with sixteen, but only eight came back. Nearly half of the people became fish and shrimps on the plate. If they wanted to reach the New World, many people might not have died.

Therefore, the outer sea fleet is indeed the most important.

The so-called offshore sea refers to the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea, the Aegean Sea, and the Adriatic Sea. These places are densely populated, rich in land, numerous products, and strong enemies [Baidu Tieba first launch]. At the same time, it is the focus of the next strategy of the Norman Kingdom. What's even more terrible is that whether Byzantine, Venice, Ottoman, or Barbary countries, these countries or organizations have different numbers but are quite combative.

Therefore, the commander-in-chief of the outer sea fleet must be the most important person among all fleet commanders who have the most control of the fleet and navy, and are most favored.

That is, General Carter, the oldest qualified one.

"...If this is the case, it's not bad..." General Carter thought for a while, his title and official position had been promoted. However, his management authority was slightly reduced. This was not something that could not be accepted. He had been too fussy before.

"I'm very sorry, Your Highness, the princess, just lost his composure." So General Carter apologized like this.

"Okay, just know. Speaking of which, you are an old minister of the Norman Kingdom. I don't have to teach you what to do or not. This is a handwritten letter written by Your Majesty to you, and your subsequent tasks will be here."

"Yes, Your Highness, Princess." General Carter took the letter with both hands, and did not dare to open it here and look at it. After putting it in his arms, he slowly retreated out. He greeted several colleagues waiting outside and then found a place where no one could open the envelope and read it.

Because at this moment, the new Norman common language has not yet been popularized. Egil adheres to the fact that education should start from children. It took several months of taxation to be paid to more than a dozen areas that the Norman Kingdom can master today - including Bo Melania, and the gradually settled Jutland Peninsula, roughly established a teaching system that barely looks like that. It includes junior colleges (corresponding to primary schools), intermediate colleges (corresponding to middle schools), senior colleges (corresponding to high schools), and universities. Of course, these educational institutions today are all paid for teaching. The fees are not low. Citizens with average income are determined to support two or three children to go to junior colleges. Then, there is no more.

In addition, these educational institutions are set up in cities, and even rural towns on the outskirts of the city are not established, let alone Welsh jungles and Scandinavian Mountains. Such poor and bad waters are like this.

In short, it is very professional and very aristocratic. Education is not something that ordinary people can afford to play these days. It is enough to be able to read a little bit of text, understand the contract, and not be sold by others.

That's it.

Because Norman Common Education has just begun, the next generation who receives such education is still a runny little kid. So Egil's letter is actually in duplicate. A new Norman Common is in old Norwegian. In addition to the formal function, this can also be used as a reading and writing textbook. It is very cost-effective.

You ask why Egil has a new Norman language? Just kidding, even if you don’t know the words of your own country, your king will do it. Such a king might as well just die decisively. So, spending tens of thousands of points to exchange for a new Norman language proficiency (level 12) is not a big deal.

Of course, you can do it when you have nothing to do. General Carter’s most important task now is to read it carefully. Carefully understand the spirit of His Majesty King Egil and then perform the mission.

In fact, it is also very simple, a task or something. It is to let General Carter quickly bring all the reorganized outer sea fleets. Then he went south from the Boluo Sea and entered the Dnieper River and continued to go south and into the Black Sea. Then he attacked Constantinople.

Half of this letter was seen, General Carter almost scared to death. He attacked Constantinople? With such a small force in the outer sea fleet, isn’t this seeking death?

Of course, Egil would never let the writing team he would send him to die in vain. In fact, Egil just wanted General Carter to make such a gesture slightly, so that those damn Greeks could know the power. General Carter only had to feint the Constantinople for two or three days to let these Greeks know that they were not what they wanted in this world. In this way, it would be good to promote the reputation of the Normans. This would also benefit Egil's next plan.

Next, General Carter can leave Constantinople, then cross the Dardanelles and enter the Mediterranean. Of course, burning, killing and looting the territory of the Eastern Roman Empire along the way is also indispensable.

Finally, the fleet bypassed two Sicilies and then anchored in Gernaya, because the empire now has no ports in the entire Mediterranean region, and only the ally of Gernaya can provide limited help. However, Egil did not say anything. Instead, he said: "If possible, you can choose one of the islands such as Cyprus, Rhodes, Heraklion, Aegean islands, Malta, etc., seize it, and transform it into a naval base."

This order also made General Carter confused. Cyprus is far away, and it is still the territory of the Kingdom of Jerusalem. It is really difficult to start. Rhodes, Heraklion, the Aegean Sea, these are the territory of Eastern Rome. But they are all heavily guarded. It is not easy to seize it... Then Malta... This territory of more than 300 square kilometers [Baidu Tieba First] square kilometers, with a total of five small islands, is suitable, and is located in the center of the Mediterranean. The geographical location is very good. There are many natural ports and there are no powerful defenders. Well, it is it.

So Carter made up his mind to rest at home for a while. In the afternoon, he went to the Royal Court of Representatives and asked His Royal Highness the Regent Princess for military orders. He went to Oslo without stopping to collect his fleet.

Two days later, the port of Oslo.

In the past few months, eight new and old shipyards in Oslo Port had been working day and night to build warships in three shifts, and at the same time, they used new technology to manufacture and upgrade, so that the outer sea fleet had the latest armed warships. They were equipped with five heavy scorpion crossbows on the bow and side flanks of the ship, with three masts and three sails and two decks, with a displacement of 800 tons, a full load of 120 crew members and 140 sailors. The material reserves were enough to sail continuously for half a year. It was a professional and powerful heavy warship that could be called an invincible heavy warship in the era of cold weapons in the medieval era.

It’s just a pity that there are only five such heavy warships. Three of them have been used as flagships by the Boluo Sea Fleet, the North Sea Fleet and the Atlantic Fleet. Only two are left for the outer sea fleet.

In addition, the largest number of general xing is the strongest crossbow warship, which has been improved many times and has the shortest manufacturing process. The offshore fleet is equipped with a total of 82 improved crossbow warships.

In addition to such main battleships, the fleet was equipped with forty trough transport ships. The cabins of these transport ships had very wide waterlines and could accommodate more materials or troops. In fact, this was their mission. Each trough transport ship carried a large number of grain umbrellas, fresh water, pickled vegetables and cured meat. In addition, there were two hundred fully armed Viking pirates.

The entire fleet had a total of more than 10,000 ships, sailors, sailors and slaves.
