Chapter 1615: Taking Action Against Arrogant Sardinia
Sometimes dinner parties are more tiring than battles.
Yang Sikang was very clear about this, but even so, he still felt that he had too many social engagements that evening.
He hardly left that corner during the entire banquet. As soon as the previous person left, another one would come over.
Later, he simply asked Befa to set up a set of tables and chairs alone, and waited there for one person after another to come and talk.
Until the end of the dinner, if it weren't for the snacks brought by the maids, he would have eaten nothing.
"This is too outrageous. Aren't they usually very polite? Today they are really not polite at all."
Back in the room, Yang Sikang complained while sitting on the chair and moving it flatter.
"There were so many unexpected things that happened during this process, so everyone should be a little impatient. Master, please use it."
Belfast thoughtfully brought a bowl of noodles. Yang Sikang sat up and took a look:
"Yangchun noodles?"
"It was done by Miss Yixian. You drank too much and she thought you shouldn't eat anything too spicy."
"That makes sense."
Yang Sikang nodded seriously. Although it was plain noodles, the simpler the noodles, the more it tested the craftsmanship. At least Yixian's craftsmanship was impeccable.
"How shall we accommodate the iron-blooded guests, Master?"
"Ok?"
Yang Sikang stopped and looked at Beifa in confusion:
"Eugen didn't go back?"
"No, and she even brought her luggage."
"..."
Yang Sikang sighed helplessly, and then briefly recounted his experience at Tiexue:
"So, for now, the newly born Bismarck is my ship girl. This is both active and passive. After all, her new ship equipment will be out of control if it is separated from me. Geryon is the core of her new life. Once she is lost, it may sink completely. It is bound to me. As for Prince Eugen, this is a little complicated, but she has that intention, and I agree."
After saying this, he ate his noodles while thinking about what to do next. Although it was true that he had agreed to Prince Eugen's request, he couldn't just agree and then ignore everything. Since he had given a response, he thought that he would have to take the initiative to handle the follow-up matters.
However, before all this, there was one thing he needed to do more urgently.
"By the way, Befa, Sardinia still hasn't responded?"
"Yes."
Beifa's answer was very brief. Yang Sikang did not speak. After he finished eating all the noodles, he wiped his mouth and said:
"Let's take action against Sardinia."
Befa just looked over without rebutting or anything.
"Let Ding'an and Akashi make some preparations first. Eugen is staying, so we can't waste her intelligence. Oh, I almost forgot to ask Bishop Richelieu to come tomorrow. I want to talk to her about Gascony."
"Yes, then would you like to invite Miss Jean Barr?"
"Let York City and the Grudges play with Jean Bart. She is not a bad person, but she may not show her true thoughts in front of me, and this is even more true when Richelieu meets me."
Belfast smiled:
"Master, this is very thoughtful."
"Let's put things in perspective. The benefits of Iris being reunited are huge for us. Moreover, if the fact that Iris is reunited is put in the forefront, it will be easy to cover up some less important things happening behind the scenes."
"A gift, then, for Cardinal Richelieu?"
"Gift... well, this is possible."
Yang Sikang smiled and said:
"Do you have a concrete idea?"
"There are some."
"Then leave it to you."
"Master, don't you want to know what I think?"
Yang Sikang shook his head and said:
"Have you ever made me feel uneasy when you're doing things? I think we might be thinking the same thing, hehe."
Yang Sikang was reading a book while chatting with Beifa.
Not long after, as expected, Dafeng also came.
The three of them were in Yang Sikang's room, chatting while arranging some things from time to time. Dafeng seemed a little restless as he hadn't come back for a long time.
"Commander, are you going to Iron Blood again?"
Dafeng asked the question that concerned her most.
Yang Sikang thought about it. The High Seas Fleet had just been built and the Iron Blood incident was still in a state of turmoil. Although this incident provided an opportunity for the Red Axis and the Azur Lane to reconnect, everything was too much, and it would take time for the Red Axis, which had been backstabbed, to regain its credibility.
The most important thing is that there are still many things he needs to do in Tiexue.
For example, the follow-up of Frederick and others, and the more critical issue of establishing the Iron Blood's own image.
"I still have to go. After all, there are still things over there that I need to deal with personally."
At this point, Yang Sikang looked at Dafeng, who seemed a little aggrieved, and smiled softly:
"But, things should get a little easier after this, and I should be able to come back once in a while. Well, if things go well, I can even take you guys to visit Iron Blood."
Wichita and others had gone there before according to Yang Sikang's request. Although Dafeng didn't say anything about it, how could Yang Sikang not know what Dafeng was thinking? Not saying it doesn't mean she doesn't care.
"Things in Sakura Empire can't be rushed, but we have made all the necessary preparations. We don't have to wait too long."
Yang Sikang touched Dafeng's head as he spoke. Dafeng nodded slightly and said nothing more.
The next morning, Yang Sikang got up on time as usual, enjoyed breakfast under Belfast's meticulous care after a long time, and then started the most important thing of the day.
"Good morning, Commander Yang."
"Good morning, Richelieu."
In the office, Yang Sikang and Richelieu sat down at the table by the window, and then Belfast brought them some black tea.
A few minutes later, there was a knock on the office door.
"Gascogne, in position."
Gascoigne appeared at the door, and Yang Sikang pointed to the chair next to him:
"Gascogne, please sit here. Well, Miss Richelieu, you already know everything you need to know about Gascogne, and you should also be familiar with my usual style, so I won't beat around the bush..."
He looked at Richelieu and said:
"I know you can contact Clemenceau. I don't care about your private thoughts, but now I have something I want to do and I hope to get Clemenceau's assistance. Of course, in return, I will do my best to help with Iris's matter and provide the information I know."
Richelieu hesitated for a moment, and Yang Sikang said again:
"By the way, according to normal logic, if we regard Iris as two parts, Libre Iris and Vichy Church, Gascony should belong to the Vichy Church."
Richelieu frowned, seeming to be very troubled. Yang Sikang did not urge him and waited patiently.
"There is one thing I think you must have misunderstood. I cannot communicate with Clemenceau stably and efficiently. She... is very opinionated. But if you want her help, then I can tell you, but I also want to know what kind of help you want her to provide?"
Yang Sikang smiled softly:
"I want to send a holy throne to the Sardinian Empire, a holy throne for shipgirls that can perform miracles."
