Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 497: Invincible fleet
Chapter 497 Invincible Fleet
North Sea Fleet, Hidegold Bay, Invincible Fleet, Morante City ...
Everyone present was taken aback by Marek's proposal. There was no sound in the conference room. Everyone was frowning or thinking. You look at me, I look at you, and no one speaks. Lorist also frowned and began to think carefully.
Malek's proposal is really unexpected. Even Lorist never thought of using the North Sea Fleet to destroy the invincible fleet of Hidegold Bay, and then boarded 6Morante City. This is not a problem with Lorist's vision and thinking, mainly because the invincible fleet of Trade Union has been so famous since it was established a hundred years ago, and it has never failed.
The original Trade Union set up this fleet was called the Alliance Fleet, mainly to prevent pirates from attacking Morante City and protect the safety of Hidegold Bay. Then it gradually evolved to protect the safety of maritime commercial roads along the Gold coastline in the southern sunny sea area of Grindia, clearing pirates along the way, and cracking down on and suppressing the behavior of maritime fleets robbing commercial roads in coastal areas. Thirty years later, this fleet was hailed as an invincible fleet because of its unsuccessful maritime operations.
I think that after the Krissen Empire civil war, the businessmen of the Trade Union Council thought that there were no enemies, and they requested that the armed forces troops of Trade Union be reduced. They reduced the city defense forces and the cost of armaments. The seven giants in charge of Trade Union were brought down. Because the seven giants know very well that temporary recruitment can be used without the city defense army, but reducing the size of the invincible fleet means that Trade Union will lose a lot of influence on the coastal countries around the Gold coastline in the 6 sunny seas. .
Is it possible for the North Sea Fleet to destroy the invincible fleet? There was a question mark in the heart of Lorist. Simba Wood claims that the North Sea Fleet is invincible, and Lorist thinks so, but the main purpose of saying this is to enhance the honor and self-confidence of the fleet personnel. The so-called invincible premise is that the size of the enemy fleet against the North Sea Fleet is only two or three times, so that the power of the Bronze artillery equipped by the North Sea Fleet can be maximized.
Trade Union's invincible fleet is different. The already exhibited for more than 100 years has given this fleet a sufficiently large scale and rich experience in maritime operations, as well as countless elite soldiers. That year, Lorist studied in Morante City for ten years, and heard more stories about the invincible fleet defeating the enemy and eliminating the pirates. In his mind, he never thought about taking the initiative to attack the invincible fleet.
How do you say? The purpose of the Lorist to build the North Sea Fleet is to ensure the safety of the cursed coastline in the northern seas, to become the hegemon of the northern seas, to protect the safety of Silowas Islands, Hanayabarta archipelago and Shyarsia kingdom all over the sea, and to maintain the family's commercial interests on these islands. I never thought of competing with the Trade Union for the Gold coastline in the southern sunny waters, and the enemy fleet.
This is not because Lorist has no ambitions or is short-sighted, but because Grindia is a huge big 6, and it can also be reached on the 6 grounds that can be reached at sea. It is nothing more than the length of time. Even if Lorist invests heavily in the maritime fleet and is truly invincible, dominating the entire 6-week sea area, Trade Union can still use its huge commercial influence to make coastal countries prohibit trading with Norton Family maritime fleets.
This is not the earth in the previous world of Lorist. There are countless archipelagoes in the Big Seven and Six. Grindia Big 6 is a big one, and there are still a few islands around. It is impossible to deal with a coastal country by sea power, because you cannot block the country's external traffic. When coastal countries cut off the supply of the fleet, unless the pirates go to capture, you can only change the supply of the coastal country. After being a pirate, all coastal nations will treat you as a pirate. The fleet would no longer be able to find supply points, but instead they would attract attacks wherever they appeared.
If you do n’t have enough income to vigorously develop the family ’s maritime power, it ’s equivalent to putting Jin Chancan ’s gold coin(s) Tossed in the water. then Lorist It was soberly aware of this that it was decided to organize a huge sea Legion , Reorganizing the North Sea Fleet to protect only the maritime interests of the family, and Trade Union of Chickadee Chamber of Commerce The tacit understanding divides the sea in two, the south returns Chickadee Chamber of Commerce , The return of the north Norton Family .
The southern seas are calm and sunny. In the northern waters, the storm was raging and the waves were rough. From a military perspective, the North Sea Fleet of Norton Family and the Invincible Fleet of Trade Union represent the two extremes of the maritime fleet. The North Sea Fleet focuses on mobility and powerful long-range attack. The invincible fleet, however, carried out close combat with quantity and superior strength to achieve victory in maritime operations.
Invincible fleets will not enter the northern waters, because their warships are not suitable for sailing in strong seas. The North Sea Fleet will not easily enter the southern waters. One is that the sea conditions are unknown, and the other is that it has no intention of offending the Chickadee Chamber of Commerce that dominates the southern waters. The only meeting point between the two parties is that Chickadee Chamber of Commerce and Peterson Chamber of Commerce of Trade Union send ships to Silowas Islands every year to purchase a large amount of spices and household goods.
In a sense, these two Chamber of Commerce just use Norton Family as a purchase channel for purchase. But since Andinak Kingdom started to attack and recover several provinces occupied by Trade Union three years ago, the two Chamber of Commerces have never sent a fleet to trade. After all, this time Norton Family is still the main force of the offense, and Vysia Chamber of Commerce, which killed one of the Trade Union seven giants, and Trade Union already officially became the enemy without a fight.
The Beihai Fleet has 16 main lightning strikes, that is, ships equipped with Bronze artillery, then 28 large armed forces battleships, 56 medium-sized armed forces fast schooners, and 26 small armed forces patrol ships. , Divided into two sub-fleets and an archipelago patrol fleet. The two sub-fleets also each have a merchant fleet of more than twenty ocean-going merchant vessels. This is because the North Sea Fleet also has the task of transporting daily supplies, trading commodities and spices to Hanayabarta archipelago and Shyarsia kingdom. Merchant ships are escorted by the two sub-fleets to two islands each year.
In serious comparison, the North Sea Fleet has only 16 lightning strikes, and the remaining large and medium-sized armed forces battleships are just transport ships. Just like Lorist this time with rock Legion from Silowas Islands to Northern Land from the sea. If there is a naval battle, the missions of these warships are nothing more than transporting supplies, saving the wounded and holding prisoners, etc., instead of rushing to the front like the sixteen lightning warships.
But compared with the invincible fleet of Trade Union, the number of warships in the North Sea Fleet is too thin. The invincible fleet does not enter the northern waters, and the Beihai fleet can also shine. But now the North Sea Fleet has to go to Hidegold Bay to actively attack the invincible fleet and cooperate with the family armed forces to attack Morante City. That is their home field. Think about the huge size and overwhelming number of battleships owned by the invincible fleet. The more Lorist thinks, the more it feels unsure. .
"Tarkel, please introduce the situation of the invincible fleet of Trade Union to everyone. Gennario, you go to the archives to check the record of the letter eagle messenger. When did your father arrive at Angry Bear City to participate in the New Year's Day?" Lorist opened his mouth.
"Yes, Your Highness." Gennario pushed the door and left.
Tarkel found Trade Union's information about the invincible fleet from a large pile of data files, and began to read to everyone: "The invincible fleet has been established for 136 years from already. More than 20 merchant ships show up to the present four sub-fleets, with all kinds of armed forces battleships and more than 1,000 merchant ships, with a range of influence from Hidegold Bay to the southernmost end of Big 6, is the main transportation at sea of Trade Union and armed forces. /
The invincible fleet has a full staff of 43,000, and the rest belong to hired sailors and crew. Trade Union allocates two million gold fordes each year to maintain the operation of the invincible fleet. At the same time, the invincible fleet is responsible for the Trade Union transportation of goods to the coastal countries of the Gold coastline in the sunny seas. In the process, another one-fifth of the profits of the invincible fleet goes to the fleet In addition, the invincible fleet also needs to be responsible for combating pirates in the southern waters and suppressing the Gold coastline in the sunny seas. Coastal countries have set up their own sea fleets. In the past, two merchant ships formed by the Aristocrat(s) of two coastal countries encountered pirates at sea, and no one was suspected of being an invincible fleet, but no evidence was found.
The Chickadee Chamber of Commerce, one of the Trade Union's seven giants, dominates the invincible fleet. They account for 40% of the invincible fleet's revenue, and the remaining six giants each account for 10%. Chickadee Chamber of Commerce claims to be the hegemon of the South China Sea. In addition to occupying a dominant position in the invincible fleet, this Chamber of Commerce also has the armed forces fleet of Chamber of Commerce and several merchant fleets. It is said that one of the four ships sailing in the southern waters belongs to Chickadee Chamber of Commerce. It can be said that they dominate the maritime and commercial routes in the entire southern waters.
The Invincible Fleet is divided into four sub-fleets, each of which has two castle-type giant ships. This type of giant ship is named Sempnim, which means the castle of Poseidon. In fact, a Sempnim is indeed a mobile castle on the sea, because it can build up to 3,000 sea stormtroopers. Once entangled by a Sempnim, it meant the end of the battle and the occupation of the warship. However, although the Sempnim battleship is extremely large, its movement is not fast. This is also the main reason why opponents turned around and fled when they saw the shadow of Sempnim in numerous naval battles.
In addition to two Sepunims, each sub-fleet also has more than 50 large ocean-going armed forces battleships and medium-sized armed forces fast battleships, as well as nearly a hundred small fast-impact warships. This small fast-impact battleship is the main tactical performer of the invincible fleet. Their ships have sharp spear-type metal impact angles. In the sea battle, they use the flexibility and speed of these small warships to hit enemy ships and slow them down. The degree of the enemy ship, when Sempnim approached, the enemy ship could only surrender or resist in the end or was occupied.
Sometimes these small collision warships also become fireboats. Using sails and currents full of igniters to attack enemy ships, as long as they are hit by that small collision ship, they cannot escape, and the invincible fleet can use large ships. The medium-sized armed forces battleships encircle and attack the enemy. This is also the bait tactics that the invincible fleet is better at using. Those small collision warships are the bait they use.
Each sub-fleet of the Invincible Fleet has 10,000 regular fleet armed forces personnel. This is in the establishment. If you add sailors and crews of the merchant merchant fleet, the number of each sub-fleet can reach More than 20,000 to 30,000 people. Every three months, a sub-fleet of the Invincible Fleet sails to the southern waters, and a sub-fleet also returns. However, there will always be a defensive sub-fleet in Hidegold Bay. This sub-fleet will send more than ten large, medium and small armed forces warships to patrol the seas around the sea ... "
Well? Lorist suddenly said: "Tarkel, do you mean that in fact the invincible fleet is not all in Hidegold Bay, but there are only two sub-fleets, and the other two sub-fleets will be in the southern waters?"
Tarkel shook his head: "His Royal Highness, what I just said is the normal situation of the invincible fleet in peacetime. Now Trade Union and our Andinak Kingdom are at war, Trade Union is continuously mobilizing reinforcements from the southern provinces, and those reinforcements will be sent by sea. It was shipped to Morante City, and now Morante City and our audio traffic are cut off, we are currently unable to obtain detailed information of the invincible fleet from Morante City. However, it is speculated that the invincible fleet will be involved in transporting so many southern reinforcements to Morante City. "
Lorist nodded, was about to speak, but saw Gennario pushed in the door to report: "His Royal Highness, I checked the record of letter eagle communication, North Sea Fleet Admiral Simba Wood Lord(s) sailed from Silowas Islands five days ago, it is estimated that the day after tomorrow will reach Beihai City, It will take three days to reach Angry Bear City. "
Lorist smiled and touched the head of Gennario: "Silly boy, that's your father, why are you talking so formally?"
Gennario said unconvinced: "His Royal Highness, is discussing business affairs now, and you cannot say that you should abandon the public for personal reasons."
"Hehe ..." Lorist smiled, grabbed his head again, and said to the people in the conference room: "Here we are here today, everyone's mouth is tighter, a decision on whether to send troops to reinforce King Just consider it for a few more days. There is also the strategy of Marek's proposal to attack Morante City by sea. I will discuss it after Simba Wood arrives to see if the North Sea Fleet has the ability to make a decision. That's it. "
Three days later, the Simba Wood rushed to Angry Bear City in a blizzard was too late to clear the snow marks under the outer cape and winter hat. It appeared in the study room of Lorist as soon as possible. After listening to Lorist's proposal of Marek Later, Simba Wood shouted in excitement: "His Royal Highness, I promise to destroy all the friends of the invincible fleet ~ IndoMTL.com ~, you can search for" ", you can find this site as soon as possible.
