章節 112: The Arrival at Egypt

Three weeks had passed since Napoleon had taken up residence in the Palazzo Parisio in Valletta, the official residence loaned to him by the Grandmaster of Malta. Sitting in his bedroom, he meticulously read through the letters sent by Ciela, his beloved, keeping him updated on the developments in Paris and their business ventures. The news of his arrival in Malta had spread to the ears of European powers, causing intrigue and speculation among the Austrians, Ottomans, Russians, and the British.

Ciela's updates revealed that the Austrians, Russians, and Ottomans suspected Napoleon of planning to use Malta as a staging point for an invasion of their Dalmatian territories. On the other hand, the British believed that he intended to sail through Gibraltar and launch a second invasion. As Napoleon absorbed these reports, he couldn't help but sigh, knowing that his true intentions remained concealed from his enemies.
