Power and Empire Chapter 1595: Wind and rain are coming (6)
" 40,000 prisoners were exchanged for 2 cities, this business is really...
. You dare to speak too, tusk! "Julius Faubourg shook his head with a disgusting look." It's really a pity. Although I am the person in charge of the Southwest District, I don't have the right to do so."
" I didn’t say give it to me openly! You only need to secretly order the garrison in the two cities to be withdrawn! "The fat man was prepared for this, hehe smiled, and said," Wan Southwest Army captive said to me It is indeed a big burden. Because it is the regular army of the Gaul Empire, it is difficult for me to blatantly dispose of these prisoners. Algernon Katya has returned to Beijing. It is only a matter of time before the release of these 40,000 prisoners, so it is better to be released. Change something affordable"
"Oh, what are you going to do with the two cities?" Julius Faubourg turned around, his eyes blinking, his face showed a very interesting expression, the southwest is only his temporary, the northwest is his Forever,
He also knew very well that His Majesty the Emperor appointed himself to be the head of the Southwestern District when the army invaded from the Republic of China. He was more to find a crime and uproot the entire Julius family. It is precisely because of this, this one In the past month, Julius Faubourg has tried his best to defend the southwest,
"I will stir up trouble between the two cities, and then...!" The fat man shrugged his shoulders indifferently under his sight, and did not continue, but the meaning was obvious. And he also believes that Julius Faubourg knows what it is.
" This will make me very embarrassed! It is not difficult to withdraw the garrison, but what if the two cities ask me for help?" Julius Fort looked out the window, his eyebrows frowned slightly, a little hesitant
" Is there a lot of troops that Southwest can mobilize at present? "The fat man flipped through the documents on the table in the room and asked in surprise.
" No, if there are reinforcements, it will be my guard!" Julius Faubourg stood at the window, the sun was shining on him, his face was ugly and he shook his head. "Not afraid of your jokes, Southwest The situation is very terrible. The troops are scarce, morale is low, and the defensive line is precarious. It is possible to break through at any time. A conservative estimate. If there is not enough reinforcements, the southwest may not be able to survive until spring."
"That’s fine. Take the garrisons from the two cities as reinforcements, and find another reason to temporarily suppress the reports of the two cities."
The fat man touched his nose with shining eyes, and said to himself, "During the war, the fact that the local government affairs report was temporarily delayed due to military needs is normal!"
"You really are..." Julius Faubourg was speechless for a while, and the method the fat man proposed made him excited. The method of suppressing a report or handing over the city has no sequelae. It couldn’t be more obvious,
tapped his fingers on the table and raised his eyebrows slightly. This is his subconscious attitude when thinking. The sound of Julius Faubourg’s knocking on the table stopped, and he made up his mind that he had already figured out how to not because of this. Got into trouble because of something
"Visit the defense line! Probably that's it!"
Suppressing the report of the local official is really easy for an old fried dough stick like him. According to the normal procedure, it usually takes a few days for a report to be sent from the place to the consulate general. For a while, the general responsible for the approval happened to be out for battle. It is even harder to say when he can get a reply. Compared with this, the assistance of 10,000 soldiers is more useful
" Okay, I can promise this, "Thinking of the 10,000 soldiers who will soon be filmed, Julius Faubourg has some eagerness to ask, "But when will Sajiman the captives be given to me?"
"Don't worry!"
Fatty got up from his seat and patted the corner of his clothes. He knew that this secret meeting was about to end, and each took what he needed. Whether it was the Julius family or himself, the fundamental interests lie in the northwest.
" Give me the authorization to control the Southwest Navy and all the ports. I will order the fleet to transport the captives directly, and you will send someone to receive it at the port! "The fat man opened the door of the meeting room. Outside the door, it was beautiful. The sun shone on the roof, dragging a long shadow, and the fat man walked up to the black carriage waiting outside. Considering the entanglement with the southwest army generals, the fat man arrived very low-key. No one knew that the gate of destiny in the southwest was being lost. Open,
"History is often determined by inconspicuous details!"
The fat man sat in the carriage, looking at the woods quickly passing by on both sides of the road, tapping his big legs with his fingers. The picturesque southwest is different from the barren and vast northwest. The cities and towns in the southwest are very dense. , I can see the outline of the town every more than ten miles. Fatty's eyes flashed from time to time. It has been a long time since I saw such a beautiful rural scenery. Although it is still cold in winter, this large plain in front of him is like a big map. , Dotted with vegetable gardens, pastures and gardens, network of ditches and rivers, wind-blown hyacinths and purple rowan grass on the hillside, mixed with white snow, exudes the message that spring is coming, like a giant in the breeze Windmills slowly turning in the middle, farmhouses in clusters, small villages scattered all around, and huts where ducks and birds inhabit the sloping roof,
Withdrawing his gaze from all this, Fatty’s heart calmed down a bit. This time the harvest was beyond expectation. It is second to take over the port and equipment of the Southwest Navy. The entire western coast will be brought into the control of the Navy without any risk. The first one,
This time it is not the barren northwest, but the southwest region and city that was cultivated by the Gaul Empire.
is dense, luxuriant in business, and the population is more than that of the Northwest. The northwest plus the southwest, the gate of the Obaro Sea has been completely opened in the Falcon Empire! In February, the Falcon Fleet in the port was taken over from the Southwest Army, and the Secretary of the Navy Dusterenkai personally took the seat. The huge fleet consisting of more than 120 warships began to move into the combat area after rest and reorganization. According to the Southwest Army provided Intelligence, the Congolese Navy has sealed the lower half of the sea area. A confinement and lock net consisting of Congo Third Fleet and Fourth Fleet is shrouded in front of the target Yadunis Island. Congo Fei’s navy is not. Fool, according to intelligence, this time the command of the Congolese Navy is Adonis Island
On the 11th of the sea, there are rare cloudless miles on the sea, a clear sky, on the sea level like a white line in the distance, just not the fourth fleet patrol ship Aguilis, the watchman on the mast is examining In the sea ahead, I saw countless black spots, spreading like a slender line. Based on his experienced experience, he knew that at least there were more than 40 large warships that were rushing here. In fact, What he saw was a huge fleet of 110 Falcon ships
When the report of "a large number of enemy fleets approaching rapidly" came, the commander of the Fourth Fleet, the Marquis Resent, was greatly surprised. It was not ten minutes before the alert sent by the patrol ship, and the sea was in a blink of an eye. , The black spots increased rapidly, and the scope expanded rapidly,
"What's going on?" Marquis Resente ran out of his ship, and personally checked the veracity of the report. The number of enemy ships was beyond expectation, and his face suddenly changed. White, the dense battleship masts on the opposite side resemble a forest suddenly appeared on the sea
"Where did these enemies come from?"
The Marquis of Resent shuddered subconsciously. It was incredible. Even in the heyday of the Southwest Navy, he would never find such a large fleet. This is the maritime defense area he is responsible for, because most of the warships are already Sent out to cruise, less than one-third of the warships that really stayed beside the flagship
"Asshole, what are you doing, I really took advantage of it!" The Marquis of Resente unconsciously said these stupid things, and he wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand, even though it is winter.
"Commander! What shall we do?" The adjutant's request also seemed a little impetuous. This tone violently affects every nerve of the Marquis! He can already imagine that when the opponent's such a large fleet rushes into his own queue, he will start a massacre,
" ordered the ships to move closer to the flagship! "At the critical moment, the Marquis of Resente's voice was a bit hoarse, and he shouted, "Contact the second and sixth squadrons urgently! The flagship team encountered an enemy raid, please Come support at full speed!"
"Another liaison clipper was sent to inform the Third Fleet that the enemy is coming and request the base camp.
. . . . ! "
"Boom Rumble"
Marquis of Resent exclaimed vigorously. At this moment, his voice was interrupted by a violent muffled thunder, and his face was whitened by the flash from the fleet on the opposite side. The enemy is starting to attack
The Dragon's Tooth battleship, which is the most assault team's diagonal advancement, formed a wall of smoke about びm long on the surface of the thick smoke that was shot at the moment it was launched, and countless red lights flashed inside, radiating out. The energy swelled, and the resulting light pierced the soldiers’ eyes strongly,
"huhu"
The cannonball with the thick black smoke tail, just like the death of a sickle wielding a roar, countless fires exploded on the front of the Fourth Fleet in an instant, and the water column rising into the sky accompanied the hull of the warship crackling. With the cracking sound, the forward formed by the Dragon Tooth battleship slammed into the front section of the fourth fleet, like a huge knife, cut down fiercely,
"Boom Rumble"
The explosion of light one after another illuminates the entire sea surface! Almost obscured the color of the sky, the explosion of the fireball brought the rumbling echo of the burst, the heartbreaking howl of the injured sailor, the ignited canvas was blown by the wind, and the deck was completely messed up
" Go forward and cut them! "The Thor on the side of the Dragon Tooth fleet sprayed huge fireballs onto the vast sea at speeds of forty seconds and ten seconds, respectively, and these dragged them long. The elliptical light cluster with a thin tail, like a crisscrossing meteor, crosses 200 meters and is even closer to the opponent’s fleet
The Marquis of Resente watched the sinking of the battleships, his eyes were red, and he waved his hand vigorously and shouted, "Strike! The whole fleet strikes, ready to fight to the death"
"It seems that the Southwest Army's intelligence is accurate, and the Congolese Navy fleet has reached the point of being arrogant and paralyzed!" On the Falcon Navy flagship, the Falcon Navy Secretary Dusternky's ice-blue eyes Inside, with a mocking cold look, he muttered to himself "Incompetent guy! Unresponsive!"
The flames are one after another, and the turbulence of heat that shoots out, set off turbulent waves on the ocean, shaking the battleships of the two armies, under the absolute superiority, the main force of the Falcon Navy completely crushed Gangfei The flagship team of the Fourth Fleet of the Imperial Navy,
The flash of Thor’s artillery tore through the gaps of the ocean, like an angel of death with silver wings! The battleships of the Fourth Fleet’s flagship team, under various saturation fires, have been hit to pieces! The side deck of the heavy battleship Nister was beaten into a hornet's nest, and was finally hit by the "flax disc" class main gun of a dragon class battleship. The big explosion that shot into the bottom silo below the deck of the ship set off murderous flames and mercilessly. Swept the entire ship, in a blink of an eye, this huge ship became 1,214 celebrities
the tomb of soldiers.
White flashes erupted one after another. The flagship team of the Fourth Fleet of the Gangfei Empire was like the leaves of a super typhoon, being rolled up and torn without hindrance,
One hour after battle began, under a sudden violent attack, the 10,000 warships of the flagship of the Fourth Fleet of the Empire, 5327 sailors, along with the flagship San Diego and the commander of the fleet, all sank to the bottom of the sea! The main force of the Falcon Navy in the defense line of the Congolese Navy, very violently tore a **** hole
The commander of the Gangfei Third Fleet, Marquis Ronette, who received the alert from the Fourth Fleet, frowned and was silent. The subordinates sensed his nervousness, and the air in the room seemed to be condensed, and some low voices came and went.
"How is the situation with the Fourth Fleet?"
"The liaison ship has been sent, and the current battle situation is unknown! But judging from the situation of the enemy ships reported by the Fourth Fleet, I am afraid that it has been more difficult!"
"Asshole, are we just watching the Fourth Fleet finish like this?"
"The situation is unknown, and an unauthorized attack will only allow us to follow in the footsteps of the Fourth Fleet!"
"Okay, no need to argue." Marquis Ronette made a fierce determination. "The whole fleet is ready! Go out to rescue the Fourth Fleet immediately!"
"Please wait!" Everyone turned their heads to look at a young officer with dark golden hair, Rousseau Wanda from the Third Assault Fleet
"Rousseau Vandal? What do you think of the current situation? Tell me your opinion!" Marquis Ronette asked with a gloomy face
"The subordinates think it is unwise to rescue the Fourth Fleet now." Rousseau Wandaah said calmly. "From the report of the Fourth Fleet, the only thing that can have such naval power is the Northwest Navy. I used to If they are really the Northwest Navy, the Fourth Fleet is now..." Rousseau Vandal's voice stopped but the meaning is self-evident
"Impossible, I understand that the commander of the Fourth Fleet, Marquis Resente, is a very tenacious man! He will not retreat to the last minute without fighting." Marquis Ronnet seemed to shake off his anxious excuses. Said: "So, we must rush to the battlefield to rescue the Fourth Fleet immediately. If we can catch up, we may be able to assault the enemy's flank. If this is successful, it will be of great help to the entire battle!"
"I'm afraid I can't make it." Rousseau Vandal gritted his teeth hesitantly. "Now you should stabilize the defensive line immediately and report the base camp is the best way! You must take action before the enemy, as long as you can control the overall situation. Live in our side and you won’t be the enemy."
"...So, do you want us to die and let the Fourth Fleet be slaughtered by the enemy? Or, as you did to the Marquise of Ancarros, watch it sink and choose Turn around and slip away" A captain stood up very dissatisfied, his tone full of accusations
"I repeat again, it was a mistake! And the Marquise of Ann Carlos was sunk by the enemy!" Rousseau Vandal's face was blood-red, ten fingers clasped together,
"It's all your own words. A battleship was sunk by a single shot. Someone believed it!" The admiral of the fleet curled his lips in disdain
"Enough, there is no time for you to fight here!" The Marquis Ronette interrupted the two and glanced at the vast and boundless sponge in the distance. The ocean." This is actually what the Marquis Ronette thought,
"No matter what the real situation is, we can't ignore the safety of our friendly forces!" The Marquis Ronette said in a heavy tone, Rousseau Vandal’s eyes quickly turned gloomy, the fourth fleet is over, the third The fleet has also followed in the footsteps of the Fourth Fleet, and now only the Second and Fifth Fleet of the Empire staying at the base camp are left. In this case, they will all fall victim to the enemy's destruction one by one~IndoMTL.com~ none of them survived"
"Rousseau Vandal’s fleet returned to base camp to report! Inform Roland of our fleet’s attack to support the Fourth Fleet, Lord Lefieble". Marquis Ronette took up the windbreaker on the chair and looked at the person who was in a daze. Luan Wangdal
"Hey...then the subordinates retired"
Rousseau Vandal knew that it would be useless to say anything. After a salute, he turned and left the meeting room.
The Northwest Navy’s coming was so aggressive that it was beyond his expectation. With a storm-like offensive, it defeated the defense of the Fourth Fleet in one fell swoop, hooked the Third Fleet, and even aroused the other four fleets that remained behind the base camp.
With such an arrogant attack, what does the other party want to do?
Looking at the undulating sea under the ship’s side, Rousseau Vandal faintly felt something was wrong. If the opponent is looking for a naval decisive battle, it should not be so stupid to expose his full strength prematurely,
"Unless the other party did so on purpose"
Rousseau Vandal smiled bitterly. How could it be, who would do it? You must know that the Congolese Empire attacked the southwest and mobilized two-thirds of the domestic navy, first, second, third, and third. The fourth, fifth, and sixth naval fleet has 350 warships and 25,000 sailors, which is definitely the largest ever. Unless the opponent is crazy, it will adopt such arrogant intrusion tactics.
