: 1919 Empire Strikes Back (3)

The ocean is boundless and vast. In an era when humans can't float on it, standing on the edge of the endless sea, humans load all kinds of imagination on the invincible blue color in front of them. The front of the sea can never be reached. At the end of the world, there is a big monster in the sea that can swallow everything. Human curiosity is born. In order to explore the mysteries on the other side of the sea, humans invented a boat that can cross the sea. So humans found that it is actually controllable in the sea. So because of people's desires, there is a marine hegemony
　　
Humans have divided the ocean artificially into fragments, divided into accessible areas and inaccessible areas, and voyages are divided into navigable areas and non-navigable areas; and those who are the most hopeless navies divide the vast ocean into the enemy's control. The area and our sub-area, which should be regarded as our own area and an area worthy of adherence, or an area that is easy to capture and an area that is not easy to capture, are now placed in Duke Ai Harley, Commander of the Fifth Squadron of Strand On the chart in front, there is an area stained with red, which represents a dangerous area where war may break out at any time,
　　
This is the port of Burdoya, 150 nautical miles away from the southern coast of Ganga, which is still relatively safe. Agreement, and then will make every effort to build this port as the most strategic port in the estuary of the inland sea,
　　
The Falcon Empire Navy won the sea battle. Three days ago, it finally captured the port of Valenia, which had resisted for a week. After learning that the entire operation was completely defeated, the Gang and Non-Man who assembled a large number of army troops also chose to retreat. Now In the southern port of Gangfei, which is still insisting, only the most close port is Vasili. Although there are signs that the Falcon Empire Navy’s battle against the southern coast of Gangfei has already established a victory in advance.
　　
　　 However, there are still rumors that both parties in the sea of ​​Valenia will decide a victory or defeat at the last port of Vasily. Despite the defeat in the Valenian naval battle, the Sea Kingdom still kept half of the warships safely evacuated, and there are still nearly a hundred warships, but the Duke of Al Hale, who is on a secret mission, knows that the Sea Fleet will soon evacuate Gangfei The southern coast, and will mobilize all the funds and spend all the resources allocated for half a century to complete a war that is a life and death for the maritime country.
　　
He was here to convey this order. As for why he was so eager to evacuate, citing Naval Minister Barpra’s original statement,
The two nations’ sea victory is unpredictable. If they lose. The maritime nation will no longer be able to stop the Falcon Empire’s full attack , The storm is about to start, the falcon empire’s fleet will flock, and while the maritime nation still has the power to firmly defend the defensive, it is the right way to quickly get out of this unfavorable battlefield! To the pride of the maritime navy for half a century It is the first one to give such an order!"
　　
　　 Duke Harley has a bitter smile on his lips. The world remembers the winners, the heroes, and the disgraceful characters. And the commission I accepted this time was to do this kind of thing,
　　
　　 "Master Duke! The flagship is here!"
　　
　　The naval officer with a road in front pointed at a battleship docked in front of the port and said that this battleship is huge, twice the size of a general maritime warship. It is covered with armor, and the sixteen-leaf structure is used on both sides of the roulette, which is menacing from the location of the Duke. He could only raise his head to look up, following the dazzling arc of the battleship, Duke Ai Harley's gaze changed from dignified to stunned. The mermaid bow at the front of the Poseidon class battleship illustrates the identity of this Poseidon class,
　　
　　 "This is the Sdira Mermaid?" Duke Al Harley's pupils squeezed, his face slightly stunned. "Is the flagship of the Hai Kingdom not the Golden Trident?"
　　
　　 "I'm sorry, the Golden Trident has sunk!" The officer's face was a bit ugly
　　
"What? Didn't the Poseidon class warship persevere... How many Poseidons sank?" Duke Ai Harley's face changed drastically. Although he was prepared for the tragic sea battle, he didn't expect the Poseidon class to be hailed as a sea barrier. Will be lost,
　　
It should be known that every Poseidon-class battleship is the existence of a sea fortress. There are only five Poseidon-class ships in the entire Sea Kingdom. Each ship is accumulated from the countless resources and money of the Sea Kingdom. The most expensive and indestructible offshore iron wood is the hull. The maritime country is paying high prices every year for this rare wood from South Europe, because the wood's resistance to impact is five to ten times that of ordinary wood. The warship made of this kind of wood is basically an unsinkable fortress at sea,
　　
Most of the tactics of the Hai Kingdom are based on the Poseidon-class battleship. Such a giant rushes in front, and the enemy in front is basically a collapse. This time, except for one base camp, the other four ships participated in this. A big battle,
　　
"We lost three Poseidon class, the Princess II of the Second Fleet was sunk, and the Flying Fleet of the Fourth Fleet was sunk before the ship returned to the port due to the fragmentation of the ship's deck. The flagship Golden Trident "The officer's voice paused and said, "...someone saw it covered by the enemy's dense firepower, and the hull sank into the water." The officer's dull face replied. "It looks far worse than expected." Duke Ai Harley murmured To himself, as the officer boarded the ladder leading to the flagship ship, his eyes swept the ships that were docked in the port at the same time. It was really bleak. If it was not what he saw with his own eyes, he wouldn’t believe that the maritime fleet would also be one day. Miserable, is this still the maritime fleet that has been in the inland sea for decades? Almost no one is intact, the thick sub-mast breaks in the middle, the white sails are torn into fabric, and the damage of the warship hull carrying the glory of the sea is like walking into a huge wounded barracks.
　　
　　 "What happened to you? This is the whole spirit destroyed!"
　　
Duke Ai Harley secretly sighed, his eyebrows tightly screwed together, so was the battleship, and so were the people. Many decks of the battleship were still full of wounded people, and the sailors coming and going all seemed to be dejected, daring with the previous spirit The sailors of the maritime kingdom who fight the sharks are just like two people.
　　
On the new flagship, Duke Aiharai saw the acting commander Vabiaro, the commander of the maritime squadron's legs and waist wrapped with gauze, just like a big robby wrapped in gauze, limping across Come over with the help of the lieutenant. "I'm sorry, but now you are laughing!" Vabiaro saw a smile that could not be concealed in the eyes of his friends. "No, you are now the commander-in-chief of the Sea Combat Fleet, I’m still thinking, should I send you congratulations?
Duke Ai Harley closed his mouth and smiled. With a straight face, he said that his relationship with Wabiello is quite good. Not only are they both commanders of the squadron in the navy, but also because they are of the same origin, Wabiabilo is also a nobleman. The fief, despite its ability to be affirmed, as a marquis, he was always regarded by others as the reason for his success. "What if the kid is not a noble?" Mix the cabin to death! ""Yes. A good background is a jealous good luck in itself! "In this case, there are quite a few of the naval officers in Strand,
　　
Also one of the island lords, Vabiaro is a well-known indiscriminate man in the Strand navy. He always smiles and treats people sincerely, although he is not as aggressive as the fleet commander Frenval Fortitude, there is no pessimistic disappointment of the frustrated, to some extent. He was indeed mixed up with seniority, no proud record, no big mistakes, and smoothly reached the position of commander of the third squadron. Despite being the weakest of the main fleets of the maritime nations, being appointed as the commander of the broken fleet did not complain at all
　　
　　 And now, the performance of the Third Fleet in the sea to turn the tide has won the respect of other fleets, although most of it is due to the young officer who turned out. However, the admirals of other fleets agreed that if they were in the same position, they could fully support a strange young man in control of the entire fleet in addition to the broad-minded abusive good man Vabiloya in the chaotic environment at that time. There won’t be a second person, who will serve as the interim commander-in-chief, and no one has an opinion on this, "Congratulations? Do you think this is appropriate? And this is only temporary!' With the feet, the painful eye corners were drawn, and then the corners of the mouth smiled bitterly, "Don't walk around, please talk about what you are doing? "
　　
"If you add the thirty warships supported by the Fifth Fleet, uh... do you think the battle can still be recovered?" Duke Aigaré took a deep breath and glanced at the sailors on the battleship deck, asking tentatively. "After all, the fleet of the Falcon Empire has not hit Port Vasily. We still have a chance. If we concentrate all our strength, we may not have the power of a battle!" "No kidding, your fifth fleet is here to retreat. !"
　　
Vabiello rolled his eyes very politely, rarely showing a bit of seriousness, with a line of blood in his eyes, saying one by one, "You also saw that although half of the power is still preserved, most of the battleships are Damaged, it is impossible to repair all the docks in the existing port for only three months, and the sailor’s inner blow is inestimable. Watching more than 10,000 colleagues buried in the sea, watching their own fleet was beaten I had to flee around, there has been no such fiasco for a long time, not to mention the sailors, even I had a heart of death! Now such an order is to let them go to death, and the probability of mutiny is 80%. "
　　
"That's not a 20% success rate! "Duke Agare blinked" There is a 20% chance that you will be alone against the Falcon Empire Navy and tied to the mast Kind of!" Vabiello's eyes lifted, and Duke Aigaré looked embarrassed,
　　
That was the training of new recruits on the battleship by the Strand Navy. To make a rookie quickly grow into an old bird that is not afraid of the wind and waves, the best way is to tie him to the mast of the battleship’s bow and let him withstand The violent attack of the waves usually takes less than three hours, and the people tied to it will change from fear to numbness to the waves, and even some people will become very violent, just like sliding from one extreme to the other, but as A sailor who needs to fight the sea all the time. This is the one that all captains like. Duke Aigaré, who was born of nobility, received this privilege, and it belongs to the kind that will explode under excessive pressure. "Okay" Well, I admit, I came here to give the retreat order. "Igare looked helpless and shrugged. He took out the order of Navy Secretary Barpra from his arms. "I ordered it and let me go!" Where are you going?" Vabiaro took a look at the order book and looked at Igare curiously. "You came just to serve such an order?" Of course, it is impossible to just send an order , I’m not running errands, and don’t give money, I’m going to Vasili Port! "Duke Aigaré sighed faintly." Since the naval battle had failed, I could barely serve as a negotiating special envoy. ""You are going to negotiate with the Falcon Empire." Wabia Luo was surprised, and his eyes were unbelievable. "Look at him" Believe it or not, but I did negotiate. The maritime nation needs rest time. If the Falcon Navy takes the opportunity to launch a full-scale offensive on the inner coast, we will lose most of the region! "Duke Aigaré has a deep focus on Vabiloya from the front, but it's okay. The Falcon Empire's eyes are only focused on the southern part of Gangfei, and it doesn't mean to continue to entangle with us, otherwise it will have been launched against us. Attacked! Minister Bappula deliberately explained that if the war in Port Valenia was lost, I would make up for it. Sometimes, war is not limited to frontal combat!"
　　
　　 "What are you going to do?" Vabiello's eyes shone slightly. He asked with some suspicion that he knew his good friend's ability. When it comes to frontal combat, his ability is only average, but as a foreign affairs liaison officer, he is very famous in the inner sea area, and he has the identity of the Duke of the Sea Kingdom. He is handsome and has travelled most parts of the Inland Sea as a sailor. Even South Obaro, which most people consider to be a barbaric place, has some contacts, and it can be called a living map of the inland seas. "The Sea Congress made concessions!"
　　
Duke Agare took a deep breath, and his face became more serious." H.P. Prabha will resign from the position of Minister of the Navy. Prince Angie, who is a pro-Falcon Empire faction, will take over, and the marriage between the Sea Kingdom and the Gangfei Empire will be cancelled. Instead, the marriage between the Sea Kingdom and the Falcon Empire "" bastard, what is Lord Baphara doing? Abandon the post of minister. And also proposed a marriage? He even thought that the Falcon Empire gave up the counterattack because of the marriage of the Sea Kingdom?" Wabi Yarrow heard that his forehead was full of green muscles, and he walked back and forth angrily
　　
"The marriage itself is not important, the important thing is that the marriage object is the King of the Sea. The daughter of the new Navy Minister Prince Anji, Anji County Master! Does this mean that the hostages understand! This shows that the Hai Kingdom is already willing to be controlled by the Falcon Empire! The other party can also understand At this point, "Duke Aigaré seemed to know that Wabialuo would say this, his mouth grinning. "Isn't the other party always wanting to fight against the prestige of the maritime country? Since the maritime power is lost, there must be certain Awakening! In fact, after this battle, the future of the Hai Kingdom is already unpredictable. The strength of the two sides is too different. Rather than being torn apart by turbulence, it is better to avoid the edge along the flow!"
　　
　　Vabiloya was silent, and after a short ringing, he said, "Will the other party agree to marry? After all, the other party is the emperor!" The only thing is to marry, not to marry the emperor! I believe that the other party will not worry about putting Anji County Lord next to the emperor! It should be pointed to that minister! It is said that the Falcon Empire will be like stars, hoping to find a husband-in-law! "Duke Aigaré raised his head and looked at the sky, how ridiculous, isn't it? The life and death of the maritime country needs to sacrifice the happiness of a woman, and it really makes me wait for men to be ashamed! But this is currently the most likely to weaken the counterattack of the Falcon Empire. Opportunities, if you don’t want to be destroyed by the powerful merchant fleet of the Falcon Empire, the best way is to let the interests of the Hai Kingdom stand on the side of the Falcon Empire, rather than on the opposite side!" "Well, do you need to send someone to escort? 'Vabiloya asked
　　
"No, just take it home, take it back, and take them home, let the Falcon Empire agree to be my duty, take the fleet back to you, or this is our last such face-to-face conversation. "The mouth of Duke Agaré said bitterly, "You will become a hero, and I, the ghost know it!"
　　
　　Strand announced the marriage with the Falcon Empire......! The evil news shook the whole Gangfei Chaotang.
　　
　　 "Is this true? Isn't the Strand married to us?" Marquis Bolcava, the Minister of the Interior, said solemnly at the desk~EbookFREE.me~ I can't believe it. Could it be a false alarm? "The finance minister He Luo brought in a hoarse voice, and after confirming the facts, he was also locked in a silent suffocation of suffocation. For this marriage, the finance department was just the meat inside the teeth. It’s all squeezed out, everything is ready, and whoever knows it will fly away. His eyes looked at the pale face of another minister on the other side. People of property feel happy when they think of spitting it out,
　　
　　 Even the little emperor sent someone to summon the military secretary Marcos to explain the situation.
　　
"It's an immutable fact that the Stratans are back. It's an immutable fact today, but it's a pity that His Majesty is totally subordinate and feels ashamed." Marcos was ashamed. The territorial country has already reached the end of its cooperation, and after submitting a new diplomatic letter, the first lady of the maritime country left Besuka on the same day, which is tantamount to slapping the slap of the non-human, but more What made Gang Fei infuriated and annoyed was that the army of the Falcon Empire finally began to act,
　　
The attack started in the morning. Under the morning light, the 40,000 Central Falcon Army of Falcon Empire, who had been stranded on the border, swooped the border with the momentum of mountains and rivers. It only took one morning to the main traffic road in the south of Gangfei Yabao fell, and the 200,000 non-southern army just seemed to be stabbed in the nest. Various teams began to gather at Muyabao (to be continued). If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
