Power and Empire Chapter 1672: In the name of Falcon (10)
1672 in the name of Falcon (ten)
The fierce sea breeze blows away the white smoke from the battleship salvo, revealing the already messy Huacheng Port. After half an hour of round shooting, the resistance of King Raphael is like a blasted port. The outer circle all collapsed, the soldiers were escaping, the port area was in chaos, the opponent’s artillery fire extended towards the center of the city, and the rising fire illuminates half of the port area
"What shall we do now?"
The King of County Raphael placed his hands on the battlements of the castle and looked at the fleet in the distance. His eyes were bloodshot. A terrible explosion raged in his city. A huge wave of air moved the city like a behemoth. Buildings were overturned, countless white lines, long tails dragging thick black smoke, roaring with the glory of death, a deviated arc slammed heavily on the walls of the castle
"Boom Rumble"
Raphael County King suddenly felt a huge vibration from under his feet. The city wall built with stones on the island was directly blown up in the explosion. The soldiers on it were like black spots thrown into the air, mixed With countless gravel and sand falling from the height of the city wall to the bottom,
"I can't give your Highness reasonable advice, because I don't know what to do!" Arang stood beside him, his eyes serious and dignified, watching the fleet on the sea in the distance can be called the most magnificent performance , Said intently, "It is also the first time I have seen Thor, the terrible weapon in the rumor. I didn’t expect that the opponent’s hunting **** would have such a huge power, super long range, and huge destructive power. It has already transformed the opponent’s navy completely. It has surpassed the capabilities that the original navy should have, and became a super weapon that can threaten the entire coastline. It is conceivable that if you refuse to continue, what a terrible scene will be caused."
Alange’s voice stopped and persuaded, "If it were me, I would follow his advice and choose to surrender. Don’t forget, the other side is Kasiliy Island, which once destroyed the hub of the northern seas. In front of such a fleet, Your flower city is really nothing. Caseyli Island has a strong fortress, a powerful frigate, and a garrison of 20,000 soldiers. It is the foothold of the empire full of ambitions in the northern waters, but it is like this The place, unexpectedly, did not block the fierce attack from the fleet in front of you. If His Royal Highness continues to hesitate, I have no doubt that the other party has no plan to land at all, but will directly razed the entire city to the ground."
"Come on, send a semaphore to the sea fleet, I surrender! Stop bombing!"
County King Raphael turned his face in pain and ordered the steward behind him. The fierce volley from the sea made him have no doubt that the opponent’s combat goal simply wanted to wipe the entire Huacheng from the map. , Under the contrast of this absolute disparity in power, my persistence is so ridiculous and sad,
"Since your Royal Highness has made a decision, then I will not delay your Highness!" Arang said to King Raphael
"Are you going to escape?" King Raphael looked at this guy who wanted to put oil on the soles of his feet. He hated his teeth and gave him his dignity, family, and gold mine. Is the return like this? That's ridiculous! . King Raphael feels a little sad for his situation. As a puppet, Gangfei will never hesitate when he must give up. Just like this, the enemy is approaching and Gangfei is not helping. To resist by oneself, but to persuade oneself to surrender, the purpose is only one, that is, not to let Gang Fei get involved in this whirlpool. He is really a collaborator even worse than a robber!
" This is a affair between Putao and the Falcon Empire. As a soldier, I must be responsible for my country. Please forgive me!" Alange replied solemnly, and then quickly turned away, Gang Fei The naval squadron did not dock at the port, but on the other side of the island. Now that Huacheng surrenders, the Falcon Navy’s attention will not be placed on the other side of the island for the time being. It is the best time to leave.
Soon, the rumbling sound from the distant sea stopped
8 huge troop carriers left the fleet on the sea and approached the port. The troop carriers were fully loaded with soldiers, each carrying 700 people. The bows of the ships split the sea and pushed the billowing waves. , As the landing force of the Falcon Navy, these troop carriers rushed to the nearby beach with the waves, the huge baffle was lowered, and countless soldiers in black armor swarmed down from above. These soldiers quickly swarmed into the entire Huacheng Port and controlled In the streets and alleys, another small fast battleship arrived at the beach. This time, more than 30 black armored cavalry came out, and black armored cavalry lined up on the beach. Then the horseshoes are flying towards King Raphael’s castle, in front is the falcon flag fluttering in the wind, behind the horseshoes is the billowing dust,
is led by the captain of the 5th Guards Squadron Kester. This young Falcon officer looks burly, tall and sturdy. Under the background of a heavy black armor, he looks like a black iron tower with a pair of sharp eyes. He shot from under the helmet to the distant castle. Ten minutes later, the cavalry entered the castle about 100 meters away. He looked up at the castle that was getting closer, raised his hand, and shouted "Stop"
The black cavalry behind "Wow", neatly lined up the horses, and raised a cloud of smoke from a hundred meters away from the castle.
"What do you want to do?"
The King of County Raphael on the castle saw that he was frustrated. He was the first to hear about the Falcon Empire in the North, but from the timidity shown by Gangfei, one can imagine this Falcon Empire. What a powerful existence, such a powerful empire, sent a fleet to attack his little flower city, it really made him feel incomprehensible,
"Excuse me, is your Highness the King of Raphael County?"
At this time, he saw the cavalry officer leading under the castle raising his head, and he saw Raphael’s unusually gorgeous clothes, and the nervousness of everyone nearby, he had decided that this guy was His Majesty Falcon The call of the cavalry officer who was looking for made Raphael's hand tightly squeeze the city wall, and his nervous breathing became hurried. After hesitating, he replied
"Yes, I am King Raphael, who are you, why are you attacking my flower city!"
"Attack? We are just helping a friend get back what he deserves. As for the other things, you directly complain to our Majesty Falcon! But please come with us now!" Kester grinned. He smiled ugly. He was tall and strong. He was actually a very cunning guy. On the battlefield, his nickname was a fox. Few people would compare this tall and hard-to-hide guy with such a small and flexible fox. Linked with animals, except for a few people who know that Captain Kester was actually a mountain hunter proficient in archery before joining the Falcon Army, with flexible skills and excellent arm strength, even if he is wearing heavy armor. The enemy of, can also be shot in from the weak connection of the opponent's armor. Kester is famous in the southern mountains of Vikia, and the targets he shoots are often killed or dragged to death due to excessive bleeding.
"Where are you taking me? The King of County Raphael gritted his teeth and asked fearfully
"Our Majesty Falcon wants to see you!" Kester answered calmly
"Your Majesty Falcon?"
County King Raphael froze for a moment on the city wall, his gaze swept across the huge fleet of ships on the sea far away, and felt a little heart-shocked for a while, Your Majesty Falcon! Is it the emperor of the Falcon Empire! My goodness, what the **** is going on! Does my little princess need to be treated like this? A summoned by an imperial emperor. . . . . . . Raphael was nervously entangled in his heart. Although he was a puppet supported by Gang Fei, to be honest, Gang Fei did not treat him very much. After all, Gang Fei was just a substitute for a puppet. Gang Fei really liked him. It is his wife who is about to give birth. As long as his son is born, his puppet will end up. The biggest official he has ever seen is from a non-imperial empire, but it is the high-level affairs officer of the Imperial Ministry of Military Affairs, Lei Lei. Mshat, if you want to be summoned by the emperor Gangfei from above, that is something you can't even think of!
"His Royal Highness, please hurry up, we don't have that much time to delay!" Kester shouted from below the castle, "Your Majesty has a bad temper. If you wait too long, you will probably give orders directly to the city."
" Bastard, this is a naked threat! "The King Raphael scolded angrily in a low voice
He didn’t dare not go, Huacheng had already surrendered, but he watched the other party approaching eight large troop carriers. A conservative estimate is that the opponent’s force ashore is more than 5,000, while the entire castle has only 1,000 defenders. , The other party really wanted to slaughter the city, and he could only watch it. Although he was full of reluctance, King Raphael was still taken to the sea by the fleet
The King of Raphael was escorted by a Dragon Tooth battleship. Its quirky appearance made the King of Raphael who walked onto the deck stunned for a while. As a fan of sailing and shipbuilding, Raphael The prince’s knowledge on warships is very famous. He has studied warships from many countries. At the age of sixteen, he was sent to the Lanterst Ocean Academy as a special student by the Principality of Universal. Barrow’s first navy’s Lanterst Marine Academy studied for three years, where he received special care from the Lanterster people and allowed him to view many secret documents. On his graduation assignment three years later, Raphael The Dillard battleship manufacturing theory put forward by the King of the County was praised by the instructor as the genius conception of shipbuilding.
The so-called Dillard battleship manufacturing theory is to manufacture the parts of the battleship separately, and then through the unified parts inlay and combination, the division of labor of the battleship is truly realized, and the construction speed of the battleship is greatly improved. Of course, the reason is said to be Theory, because even the sea country Lanterster does not have the huge human and industrial power needed to implement this theory,
On this Dragon Tooth battleship, Raphael's gaze was a little tranced, not only because of the unique shape of this battleship, but because he discovered that the structure of this Dragon Tooth battleship fits his Dira. According to the German warship manufacturing theory, it seems that every part of this warship is not made as a whole, but is made up of multiple parts. The King Raphael did not know that in the naval manufacturing dock of the Falcon Empire, After gathering the industrial forces and craftsmen of a continent to improve, under the "assembly line" manufacturing method proposed by His Majesty Falcon, the manufacturing of naval warships has already achieved division of labor and cooperation. The main hull of the warship is in Saran, which has abundant timber resources. It was built in South Germany, and the components were built by docks in other regions, and finally transported to the south of Salander for assembly. The large-scale adoption of special mortise and tenon inlay structures and traditional nail-iron connections greatly shortened the construction time of battleships.
"My own theory has really become a reality" After visual inspection of the warship components on the Dragon Tooth battleship, King Raphael has determined to hide his thoughts, and the shock in his heart is far greater than that of being captured, but When he first saw the flagship Dragon-class, the huge ship's side beyond all the warships, his eyes lit up that could no longer be concealed
If it weren’t out of the state of being held captive, he would really stretch out his hand to stroke the huge battleship in front of him. The previous discovery had hit him once, and this time, he felt how small he was in his past complacency. This is the real battleship, the ocean-going battleship that crosses all over the world, especially when you see the side of this huge battleship, the muzzle baffle that is not closed like fish scales, and the dark turrets are exposed inside, and the sailors on the battleship are pouring water on it. , A stream of steamy steam came out of these gun chambers, and King Raphael’s breathing stopped for a moment. At this moment, he felt that he was looking up at the breathing of a real behemoth of the ocean. /
He is not a very ambitious person. The reason why he is willing to let Gang Fei support as a puppet is because Gang Fei promised to fund the formation of a naval fleet belonging to the Principality of Universal after the incident. He can take the fleet to realize his dream, but now, he suddenly realized that this ideal is really ridiculous. This is the truly powerful warship. Even the building warship of the Lanternster Navy, there is no such superpower in front of him. The warship is huge. Such a warship can resist the waves from the ocean routes and cast a wider eye on the unknown area. It is no wonder that the Falcon Empire with such warships dare to directly attack itself by crossing the sea.
The Guards pushed the King Raphael into a spacious room, and then closed the door from the outside. The room was a little dim. Raphael turned his head curiously. This is what he heard a familiar voice saying." Rafael, it seems that you are worse than me. As a puppet, you serve them wholeheartedly, and when you really need it, you are just thrown away like a ball!"
"Who is it?" King Raphael's face turned blue, and then he saw the corner of his mouth with a white bandage coming out of the shadows with a smile
" It’s you! "King Raphael’s pupils shrank and he looked at someone who was supposed to be in the Falcon Empire with an incredulous look. Sitting down on the chair, the Duke of Putu with gauze wrapped around his waist looks a bit funny. The white gauze is holding the outside of his waist, and blood stains can be seen oozing out.
He gave a dry cough with an ugly face, and his face was bleak from blood loss. "It's unexpected! I was assassinated! Do you know who did it?"
" I heard! Believe it or not, it was not what I did. "The King Raphael looked at him solemnly
"I know it's not you!" The Duke of Putu pulled his collar with his hands, as if he wanted to make himself look more serious, and finally said with a bitter smile, "This assassination was done by myself. It was very deep. I almost lost my life after a single blow. I knew this pain a long time ago, so I should take it lightly!"
"You are crazy, assassinate yourself!" King Raphael's face showed a trace of amazement, his eyes flickered, and there was even a trace of concern in it. It seems that the relationship between the two is not as strong as the outside rumors. Same as water and fire.
"Are you crazy? It's possible! If the pain of a single knife can save my country, even if another knife is inserted, I will do it!" The Duke of Putao calmly glanced at King Raphael. The tone slowly said, "At least, I'm still fighting for my country, so what about you, the young man who threatened to make the Putu Principality the No. 1 Power on the Sea, in order to let Gang Fei let me back, frankly willing to be a puppet? Man, has he really decided to accept his destiny of being imprisoned to death?"
"I am imprisoned to death? Ha ha, am I not imprisoned now!" A wry smile appeared at the corner of King Raphael's mouth. This sentence made his mind twisted, and he has been avoiding this question in his heart. , Now being picked out by someone, it hurts like a thorn in it. "I know very well what Gangfei people want. What they want is my child. The person who will be the future prince is also my child. As for me, this superfluous People, it’s a blessing to be able to not kill them." King Raphael sneered coldly. "It’s good to be imprisoned in the end~IndoMTL.com~ Do you really expect Gangfei to give you a fleet?
"Even if you are naive, there must be a limit! In fact, you are luckier than me. At least you have a few loyal subordinates. As for me, everyone around me is the eye of Gang Fei. , Even the diet is controlled by Gang Fei, my situation is not as good as half of yours,
At least, before the establishment of the new duke, you are still safe on the surface. You can recruit your subordinates and gather the army. My only role is to hide in a place with the unfamiliar Gangfei woman. An heir who just doesn't need it! Then it disappears silently, as if it had never existed before. As for what will happen in the future? Haha, do you really think that a woman from a famous background will spend a lifetime with a worthless prisoner? "
"Then why do you want..."The Duke of Putao looked at King Raphael with piercing eyes, as if he had met him for the first time
" If I die, will you still be able to live until now! "King Raphael smiled coldly" You can brag about fighting for the Principality here because I sacrificed in the Principality, I live, You can live, otherwise, you think Gangfei will tolerate you for so long!
