Power and Empire Chapter 1992: Istan and Feshan War
Fei Shan Wang’s Military Affairs Hall, a group of guards with golden and dazzling hairs walking through the corridor covered with oil paintings. These soldiers are wearing Feshan’s traditional brown-red hunting uniforms. The body is red-lined and blue-striped military trousers, and the long leather boots that cover the knees look vigorous. Every time they pass by a pillar, two guards will automatically stop, lined up on both sides, and a middle-aged man with a serious face appears. At the entrance of the corridor, the middle-aged man was wearing a white robe with a certain platinum crown on his head. The body of the guard in the corridor was slightly shaken, while standing at attention, the leather boots collided loudly.
"Stand at attention, salute!"
"Your Majesty, here!" A loud voice came from the door. The Minister of Military Affairs of Feshan, Marcus Antarius, and all the generals stood upright in confusion, looking respectfully at the middle-aged man who appeared at the door. , Everyone hurriedly stood up straight and saluted
"Your Majesty, you just need to tell you something!" Mark Antarius said with some trepidation,
"The war between the kingdom and the Istan Empire has reached the point where the armies of the two countries are frequently mobilized. I can’t come! No one can sleep soundly after reading such a report, but you have harmed me. It’s horrible!” The middle-aged man smiled at the corner of his mouth, waved his hand to let everyone sit down, and then sat down in the main seat that Cuantarius had let out. The body of a middle-aged man with a strong aura is not counted. It’s tall and tall, and even a little bit rickety. His face is slightly pale against the jewels on the platinum crown, but his eyes are like eagles and tigers looking forward, and they are as bright as they can see through people’s hearts.
The middle-aged man is the emperor of Istan I who made the talents rough. King Nigut III of Feshan, who was also regarded as his life rival, had a report on that super battleship delivered to him yesterday, in the report. This Dragon-class battleship is described as a super warship that is enough to make a major change in the naval power of the Feshan Kingdom and the Istan Empire. The Feishan people did not know that the Dragon-class battleship as a gift was fully equipped, but lacked enough. Cannonballs are the deadliest weakness. If they are truly engaged in naval battles, they will fall into the point where there are no bullets available after several consecutive launches.
King Feshan had to come personally, the current duel between Feshan and the Istanis. Fei Shan's main advantage is the navy. If the navy situation is as reported in the report, it would be a disaster for Fei Shan. Feshan’s war with the Istan Empire has been fought for almost a hundred years. Feshan’s army was able to compete with Istan at the beginning, but with the rise of this generation of Istan emperors, Feshan’s army was in the east five years ago. The provincial capital battle suffered heavy losses. It also lost the Eastern Province, which was a barrier to the kingdom. Seen as a war between the two countries, the Libra is very obviously a landmark battle on the side of the Istanian Empire
In the following years, the Istanian Empire expanded vigorously, and its military strength became even stronger. King Feshan, who corresponds to the ambitious father-son profile of Istan I, has passed 40 years old. At the age of thirteen, he will marry the queen and beloved consort. There are more than thirty people, but only one son. The daughter has given birth to quite a few, and there are seventeen princesses from the kingdom. It was the person with the most fertility and the fewest sons of Feshan’s past dynasties. However, for Feshan now, it is more advantageous to have more princesses and fewer princes. King Nigut III of Feshan will take his tenth A princess married the domestic giants and the regional governor respectively, which made Feshan stable as a rock. The two princesses married the prince of Central Europe and became two important helpers of the Feshan military alliance. The Feshan kingdom can gradually The decaying momentum is still able to contend with the rising Istan Empire, and the princess tactics of the old king are also a reason.
"I read your report, but I don't believe that just such a warship can really wipe out the naval superiority that Fei Shan has worked so hard to manage for a hundred years?" Nigut III looked down to the first place. Minister of Military Affairs Maku Antarius,
"This!" Macuantarius hesitated and waved his hand to the generals. You go down first. The generals know that the contents behind are classified. The door of the room was closed, and now only the Minister of Military Affairs Marcus Antarius and King Nigut III were left, which seemed empty at once
looked at the sunlight coming in from the window, Makuantarius smiled bitterly. "The report may be a bit exaggerated! It is true that just one ship cannot threaten my Feshan Navy! But since your Majesty asks, I will To be honest, there is definite news that the Istanbul people have sent a special envoy to the Falcon Empire, and the content of their negotiations is to use the Falcon Empire’s navy to contain our navy! The result of the negotiations is still unclear, but if the negotiations are successful, the Falcon Empire Navy Will enter the inner sea"
"The Navy of the Falcon Empire?"
King Nigut III raised his eyebrows. He didn’t know much about this country that rose to the northwest of Obaro, but he had also heard that the navy of this country had a navy that made the strong enemy Strand navy dare not touch it. Nigut III has no specific impression of how powerful this force is.
"Bring that document!" Makuantarius waved his hand to the adjutant behind him, the adjutant nodded, and quickly handed a black-covered report to him,
"Your Majesty, this is part of our intelligence on the Falcon Empire Navy!" Mark Antarius respectfully handed the report to Nigot III who was sitting, and said with an ugly face, "As the report says , The Dragon-class battleship has been equipped with more than 20 ships in the Falcon Empire Navy, and there are hundreds of Spike-class battleships with combat power almost equal to one-half of the Dragon-class battleship. Only in terms of naval power, the Falcon Empire China’s navy has no enemies. Once negotiations are reached, facing the combined fleet of the Falcon Empire and the Istanbul, our naval superiority will be difficult to maintain."
Nigut III’s white eyebrows were twisted together, and his fingers overlapped on the report on the table. "Since the Istanis can send someone to contact the Falcon Empire, we should be able to do it too! This matter immediately Send someone! In any case, the Falcon Land Navy must remain neutral in this war regardless of the cost!"
"Yes, I understand!"
" Is there any abnormal movement of the Istanites recently? I always feel a lingering feeling! "Nicot III stood up,
Makuantarius said, "There is no new movement for the time being. The Istanis are still gathering forces on the Lukat front line. There are already more than 100,000 people. They are facing the dark mountain area on the flanks of our defense line. There is. The defensive zone of the Kingdom’s Fifth Infantry Regiment and the Sixth Infantry Regiment is now in winter. The Fifth Infantry Regiment and the Sixth Infantry Regiment are the elite of the Kingdom. 80 of the 200 Thors acquired from the Falcon Empire are placed on this attack line! The minister still asks his majesty to recruit more troops to deal with it. The skating mountains will make it difficult for the Istanbul people to travel. But once If the battle is unfavorable and broken, it is enough to form a forward sweeping the entire line of defense,"
"Thunder God! We also have Thor!" Nigut III's face changed. Shen Sheng asked, "Hasn't I already sent someone to buy it in the Putao area? When will it arrive?"
"Because it is impossible to pass through the area controlled by the Istanbul, the purchased 30 Thors can only travel by sea. The navy has sent warships to **** and should arrive within half a month. Subordinates are worried... "Maku Antarius took a deep breath. Replied respectfully
"I hope I can catch up! Although the thirty Thor Thor is a bit less, it should be enough as a defense!" Nicholas III looked back from the scenery outside the window with a high face, interrupting Mark Antarius. However, the good news made him look a little more energetic. Since learning that the Istan Empire had acquired 200 Thors from the Falcon Empire, Feishan felt precarious. Fortunately, in August. Thor sales appeared in the underground black market in the Putao area, although there was no one Thor at a price of 50,000 gold coins. But it was also enough to attract the interest of many countries. In response to the aggressive popularity of the Istanbul Army, Nigut III took out a purchase of 1.5 million yuan in one breath and sent someone to buy Thor in the general area.
He said slowly, "It's not that I don't want to mobilize troops to deal with it, but Feshan Kingdom's troops have basically been emptied. You are the Minister of Military Affairs, you know this better than I do!"
"Your Majesty, Pasternon's legion has two infantry regiments...!" Macuantarius reminded that Pasternon's legion was a special organization of the Feshan Kingdom. , Is a private army directly belonging to the royal family. It has a full force of 60,000. Well equipped and trained, it is a real elite in Fei Shan, and it is Fei Shan's veritable guards
"That can't move!" Nigut III, who had always been stable, had a gloomy face and unceremoniously rejected it. Pastanon has other combat missions! And the royal capital also needs a military force capable of suppressing instability
"Yes, the minister understands!"
Makuantarius’s face flashed with sadness. The army generals were very optimistic about this battle. The Istan Empire had more army numbers than Feshan, and the weapons were better than Feshan, but His Majesty was determined not to let the most The participation of the powerful Pastanon Army in the war will have an inevitable impact on the military spirit
"Your Majesty!" An anxious palace officer walked into the door
"What's the matter?" Nigut III's eyebrows furrowed slightly. How could such an important secret talk come to you? When I saw that the guard of the palace was walking in, Nigut III's face eased a little. It should have happened. There is no urgent matter, otherwise the palace guard would not even be ignorant of such a rule,
"Your Majesty, I just received the news..." The palace guard's face was abnormally bent over and whispered in Nicot III's ear. Nicot III's eyes lit up, and he waited for the palace. When the officer left, the Secretary of Military Affairs Mark Antarius asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, has something happened?"
Nigut III’s mouth smiled slightly, "You must have never thought that the emperor of Istanbul has just issued an order to appoint our Feshan traitor Raisabaqi as the governor of the Pira region of the Eastern Province." For the defeat of the kingdom five years ago The culprit was reused by the Istanbul people, and he didn’t even look angry at all,
"Resabaqi is the governor of the Piro region of the Eastern Province!" Makuantarius' body trembled slightly, and his nerves tightened. His mind immediately reflected the chill represented by the news. Luogang is the so-called base camp of the bóweak and poor navy of Istanbul. It seems that their negotiations with the Falcon Empire have failed! Otherwise, such an order would not be issued, because the emperor of Istanbul had to make such a decision because there were no naval talents worth mentioning in the country! The two sides have been planning for so long, and the battle to block the fate of the two countries is finally about to kick off.
took a deep breath and said, "This is a signal that the Istanbul people are about to do it! Since it is the Eastern Province, the Governor of the Eastern Province is not the same as Khayala... ..."
"Don't worry. Hayala, the emperor of Istanbul’s war pig, has not received an order to participate in the war! It seems that the emperor of Istanbul still distrusts the wastelanders at the most critical moment!" Nigut III grinned. I can’t see if I’m laughing or mocking. "If Khayala, the most fierce attacking general under the emperor of Istanbul, did not play. Our pressure on the eastern front would be reduced by more than half. This is the emperor’s stunned move. Send people to negotiate with the Falcon Empire, and we must keep its navy neutral regardless of the cost!” Nigut III emphasized one point in a heavy tone, walking towards the door of the military affairs hall, and the heavy steps that came, the footsteps are more a relief of heavy burdens. Relaxed
Gang is not in the north. Luao Sai Xing Province, Varo Port,
This port city is located at the western end of the northwestern coast of Congo. It is the largest port from the southwest region to the northern region of Congo. Hundreds of small islands are dotted around a hundred nautical miles away from the port. Among the islands, excellent wind shelters are formed. Relying on the hilly area, new houses are lined up densely. In the port area. But it looks like a new and old port mixed with broken ruins. It is decorated with Icadiva style buildings. The new and old cranes in the port are densely arranged. The unloading workers at the port are shuttled back and forth carrying small pieces of goods.
Above the port terminal. There are cargo warehouses everywhere, and merchant fleets from the southwest and inland areas are moored everywhere on the sea. There are any styles. The large ocean-going fleet with towering masts, the old large-scale speedboats from the inland waters, the tall fishing boats of just non-fishermen, the berth is busy, and the brown ropes on the deck form a huge net. Sailors from all over He squeezed on the deck and looked curiously at Gangfei North Dagang, which was rumored to have been fired by Istanbul. The lighthouse on the cliff not far from the port. Looking down at this busy and lively port.
As the Falcon Empire took over the heavily devastated northern region from the Istan Empire, the first response was naturally the port area used as a docking point for merchant ships. In the afternoon, the sun was very good, and the shadow of the tall masts of the sailing ship was cast long and "shot" onto the pier in Port Alberton. There is not much difference between other merchant ships, but there is a very special flag hung on the top of the mast, and there is a red long-billed eagle that spreads its wings. Everyone knows that this is an armed merchant ship with a merchant group logo.
The dock worker at the port looked at the merchant ship docking in the port with some curiosity. The long-billed eagle is not a bird of the sea, but a bird of prey close to the northern grassland of Ikadiva. As the springboard was placed on the trestle bridge, several young female knights in black skirts came down from above first.
These female knights are all about seventeen or eighteen years old. They have beautiful faces, but they are as cold as frost. They just show up and attract most people’s attention. They don’t look at the narrow waist that they hold. After the half-curved strange sword, after the female knight, a tall girl came down from the slipway.
coldly stepped on the wooden board of the trestle bridge, iron knight's foot armor nailed to the wooden board, making a very clear sound. A beautiful and dazzling long hair has been hanging down to the surprisingly curved hips, and the pure red tight skirt is neatly wrapped on her body, showing a slim figure that combines strength and beauty.
"Important news! The Istanis are starting to attack Feshan! "At this moment, a speeding carriage came in from the port gate, and beside the driver above, a businessman shouted with excitement
Is " true? "The port suddenly became chaotic, and the merchants expressed their cheers. The Istanbul attacked Feshan, which means that a large number of war materials will be purchased from the north of Congo, which is hundreds of thousands of people. During the General Assembly battle, the business opportunities inside are eye-catching. Although the northern part of Congo has been recovering, the destruction of the Istanbul people is too thorough. At present, except for the courageous imperial merchants who dare to hoard these materials in the coastal ports, the Istanbul people even if they have it. There is nowhere to buy it!
" is really an unpleasant welcome ceremony! "The girl's cold and noble gaze swept across the messy pier in front of her. She didn't seem to care about the news that made the whole port boil, her eyebrows frowned. He raised his head and walked proudly to the exit of the dock. Like a group of cold flames, it seems to make the air next to it a bit cold
" My lord, the Istanbulites attack Feshan, do they need to immediately notify the local garrison generals of the assembly? "A female knight came over to ask for instructions
" But it just started~IndoMTL.com~ Don’t worry, and I also want to see the Empire’s attitude on this matter, and I don’t want that person to know that I have arrived!" Berrant Bonnie shook Shaking his head, white shell-like teeth biting on his lips,
As the commander of the border guards of the empire, she used her position to form this long-billed eagle trade group, which is one of the largest smuggling trade groups in northern Ikadiva.
Regarding the behavior of the Border Guards commander, even the Supervision Department turned a blind eye and closed one eye. It was regarded as the housework of your Majesty. It was a long mouth to the resignation of the Border Guards commander of Berrant Bonnie. The Eagle Merchant Group’s control has also declined sharply,
Under the urging of the fat man, and even privately agreed to give one million gold coins as compensation for the relocation fee, Berrant Bonnie, who had already dismantled the commander of the Imperial Border Guard in July, finally agreed to set off. ,
Similarly, the long-billed eagle merchant group established with part of the border guards’ confidants as a team also accompanied them to Obaro. First, they spent money to acquire a small-scale merchant fleet, and then after a half-month sea trip, Arrived in Luao Sai Province in the north of Congo,
The empire’s new appointment for Berrant Bonnie has been issued. The commander-in-chief of the Empire’s Congo-Fei Northern Corps has four combat flag regiments with a total force of 60,000. The main task is to be responsible for the stability and response of the Congo-Fei Northern Corps. Various changes caused by the possible outbreak of the war between the Istan Empire and the Feshan Kingdom.
Fatty wants to see how the border guards have worked through the years of wind, frost, rain and snow, and what kind of blackened and beautiful female knight has been trained (to be continued) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it. Monthly ticket, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
