Power and Empire Chapter 2542: Imperial Wind (17)
Papute heading to the northern coast, Rilang Beach, a small black spot appeared on the sea in the distance. Soon, the black spot turned into a black line, and the heavy triangular bow was like a sharp knife splitting the front There was a loud noise, and countless water splashes exploded.
"Commander, the front is Rilang Beach!"
On the bridge of the flagship of the Fleet Junhua, the third squadron commander Stephen Ge received a report from his adjutant. This time the Imperial Navy dispatched his third squadron, whose main responsibility was to protect 61 ships. The transport ship landed and transported 5,000 troops at one time. The combat goal of these 5,000 people was Rilang City, which is 15 miles away from the landing point, Rilang Beach. Because it was a winter night, almost no one noticed the imperial fleet approaching. Hours later, after receiving all the safety news feedback, Stephen Ge gave the order for the transport ship to dock with a grim look. As a flag on the top of the flagship was raised, more than a hundred large transport ships began to leave the fleet, like a hill. Stopping on the side of the coast, a huge fan-faced beach appeared in front of everyone,
This is a very ideal landing point. The imperial navy’s eyeliner in Rilang City also lit a fire on the beach. In the direction of the fire, the transport boats were put into the water from the side of the transport ships, above each ship. Able to carry ten soldiers, the sea is very calm, paddling makes a rushing sound in the water, the bow of the ship slightly crosses the sea, as if sliding on a smooth surface, there is not much wind and waves in the entire sea tonight , The transport ship washed up on the beach and then rowed back to continue transporting people. It took more than an hour to come and go. In addition, it took two hours to get from the beach to Rilang City. When the imperial army arrived in Rilang City, the sky There is already an inconspicuous white thread,
Under this faint white line, the sky seems to have been divided into black and white, falling on the sky above Rilang City, illuminating the dilapidated city wall with a height of at most two meters, with more than 200 houses scattered inside. , A red-brown spire is the lighthouse of the port of Rilang City. Although there are a thousand-man port garrison, only about two hundred people are actually stationed in the city. A medium-sized barracks can be seen outside the city. It is a wooden building. An eagle shield flag flutters lifelessly
"Do it!"
The fifth team leader of the Imperial Marine Corps, Frank, led the attack on Daylang City. The Marine Corps is a marine unit directly under the Imperial Admiralty Corps. It is divided into five combat teams, each with 5,000 people. With a total of 25,000 people, the third squadron and fifth team that were dispatched this time were specially selected by the Navy Department. Frank’s fifth Marine Corps consisted of veterans recruited from the army. With the crown of the five combat maps, facing this almost undefended city, these veterans who had turned from the army, consciously approached the barracks in a small attack formation, and easily leveled the outposts outside and inside the barracks. The Paputans obviously did not expect that someone would launch an attack on a small city like Rilang. It was originally an unremarkable city with no coastline. Who would have nothing to do here, let alone be the best hunter in mainland China. The Eagle Empire ran into it. The officer in charge of affairs in the barracks was still in bed, dreaming, and he felt a burst of coldness. He opened his eyes in a daze. What caught his eyes was a biting cold sword placed on his own. On the neck
"What do you want to do?" The officer's face was pale, and when he saw the situation in the room, he soon pretended to be calm and said, "I don't care who you are, this is the barracks, as long as I shout, the people outside Will rush in! "In order to rush in lightly, and you may have to spend some time on the beach, so the entire fifth regiment wears light armor, and the light is very dark. This officer will actually enter the few people in his room. The imperial soldiers became pirates, Paput is only a second-rate country, and the coastal areas are often harassed by pirates
"Really, then you should give it a try!"
A murderous voice came, and a burly man walked in from outside. It was Frank, the fifth regiment commander who led the team. The soldiers outside were all controlled. There was an order not to overkill. So only a dozen soldiers who resisted were dealt with. The others were all detained. He came in to see the situation of the opposing officer. Occupying Rilang was only the first step. Regarding the situation near Rilang city, we still need to obtain information from this officer. I get it,
"You!"
Officer’s gaze paused on Frank, and his pupils shrank unnaturally to a point
Frank, as the team leader, is naturally not ordinary soldier light armor, but the Imperial Guard armor, and it is also the Guard armor forged with 100-refined steel in the Samor era. The black is like a layer of lacquer. On the steel surface, a flowing luster appeared on it. Seeing Frank, the officer knew that he had not hit a pirate. This was definitely a regular army, black armor, and a white thorny badge on the chest. If the inner sea area There is a pirate leader who dared to dress like this, the endless pursuit from the navy of the Inland Sea hegemony is enough to make the opponent go to heaven. This is the symbol of the Falcon Imperial Guards, and there are still quite a few guards officers. , Thinking that standing in front of him might be the Imperial Guards, which has recently become extremely famous, the officer immediately shivered, and his voice began to tremble. "You... You are the Imperial Army! You guys!" It's an invasion!"
" Name, position, and situation in Rilang City! One less, he cut off one of his fingers. "Frank first slapped the officer severely, and then made a cold gesture to his subordinates. Two imperial soldiers fiercely grabbed the officer’s hand and tied it to the armrest of the four-corner chair. Another soldier raised the sharp sword in his hand high. The cold blade flashed red under the candlelight that had not been extinguished. As long as an order is given, the officer’s hand and armrest will be cut off with a sword
" I said, I said everything! "The officer in Rilang City is holding a chair like a toad lying on his stomach. He is almost paralyzed by this situation. The captain of a small area garrison, You can’t expect what a tough character, you will soon confess everything about Rilang City
" So, you’re not from the Sunland City garrison?" Frank blinked, and the coldness in his eyes made the officer’s forehead bead of sweat, and the big ones fell down. The famous military officer is not an officer from Rilang City, but an officer from the provincial capital of Massachusetts to which Rilang City belongs. He is here because the governor of Massachusetts is in Rilang City at this time. The reason why the governor of the province came to Rilang City made Frank overjoyed
Paput Kingdom has just recently signed a secret agreement, which is to reach an alliance with the southern kingdom of Fezer.
Paput, as a second-rate kingdom, was able to marry with Fezer, a powerful southern country on the central and western coast. It can be said to be a big leap in political structure. This is also the main reason why the night prime minister is eager to seize the Polya Chamber of Commerce. The two-headed eagle merchant group in Fezer in the south has been completely finished. One of the important conditions for the Fazer royal family to agree to the marriage is that the Fazer royal family will replace the double-headed eagle merchant group with the Polya Chamber of Commerce.
Fei Zeben is a big country on the southern coast of the Inland Sea. Due to the fact that the double-headed eagle business group has nothing to do, Fei Ze’s maritime trade was almost cut off by the Falcon Empire, and some time ago, he was swept by northern funds in the economic field. If they can no longer find a way to open trade, Fazer’s domestic economy will go backwards. For Fazer royal family and high-level officials, they don’t care about Fazer’s economic downturn, but their luxury life has been severely affected, and even become The laughing stock of the entire south
At this time, someone proposed the idea of replacing the double-headed Eagle Merchant with another merchant group. The best alternative is of course the Polya Chamber of Commerce in Paput, a second-rate kingdom, which is also the top ten merchants in the south, and Papu The Kingdom of Fetz has made several requests for marriage to the Fei Ze royal family. A princess from a second-rate kingdom is not eligible to be the Fei Fei Kingdom. Of course, the Fei Fei royal family knows what Paput Kingdom is planning.
Paput Kingdom has always been coveting the small country of Lisri in the southeast of the kingdom, but the small country of Lisri is a vassal of the Fazer royal family, and it is said that it is a marriage. In fact, it wants Fei Kingdom to adopt a default attitude on this matter. , And the Kingdom of Risri’s refusal of the Fezer Kingdom’s tribute several times a while ago also made the Feize royal family feel that this small country has an independent heart. Since the Paput Kingdom wants it, it’s good to take it. For occupying the southern west coast For the Fezer Kingdom, which is the overlord of the west coast of South Europe and Barros, the Kingdom of Sri, which occupies less than a hundred miles, is not considered. On the contrary, the value of the Polya Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Paput is even greater. Bigger,
After an agreement, the two countries secretly signed a marriage. The marriage candidate Fei Ze proposed is the young and promising Prince Nichia, the sixth brother of King Fei Ze. It is said that the Prince Nichia looks handsome and is King Fazer is a famous playboy. For this, the Paput Kingdom directly ignores this point. It is already very good to be able to marry a young and promising Prince Fazer. The exchange of benefits between the two parties is the best. Importantly, King Paput has four daughters. It is very cost-effective to send a daughter to the Kingdom of Lisri. The most important thing is that once he gets the support of Fezer, the overlord of the western coast, the Kingdom of Paput is in The status of Southern Oubaro is naturally rising. After occupying the Kingdom of Lisri, you can also try to expand eastward.
Now the entire east is completely chaotic. The Eero Empire has attacked the Kingdom of Aden. The two kingdoms have hundreds of thousands of troops around a port, and they have reached the point where the bayonet is popular. Violence is violent, and I am busy suppressing the suppression. The more than 100,000 troops lost due to the North-South war makes the wish tree cult state completely unable to suppress the situation in the east, so now the east is like a gunpowder keg. More than a dozen eastern countries are gearing up, and the major powers are unable to suppress or ignore this situation for their own interests. The signs of a great war are becoming more and more obvious. The reason why it has not exploded is because hundreds of thousands. The attitude of the Northern Falcon Empire with its forces on the border is not yet clear. Once the opponent clearly supports the Erotians or the Adenites, the wind direction in the east will be completely deflected.
" The entire army immediately blocked Sunlang City and reported the situation quickly! Ask the navy to block the sea! "Frank has vaguely captured something in his mind after listening to the officer's words. He did not expect the timing of the attack to be such a coincidence. , A Paput’s father sailed from Rilang City, and some Prince of Fezer might be here. It really caught a big fish!
The report was sent to the commander of the Third Fleet, Stephen Ge. He dared not delay any time. Stephen Ge immediately issued the order for the fleet to advance to Rilang City, and at the same time dispatched the four fastest Dragon Tooth ships towards Japan. A small island fifty nautical miles in front of Lang City, Baien Road Island, where there is a small port, Stephen Ge is worried that the other party’s ships have left Rilang City. Baien Road Island is the only way to Feize. And there is a small town on the island where many ships are resupplied. If according to the previous empire’s combat habits, it would not be so troublesome to land and occupy, but directly use warships to bombard the port, but now with a large number of The port industry has been labelled the Imperial Bank. In order to avoid exploding their own industries, the Marine Corps was dispatched, and this time the Imperial Navy has another plan, that is, the Imperial Navy is ready to take advantage of this opportunity. , For a long time to establish a stronghold in the waters north of the Paput Kingdom, as the imperial navy to rest and rest. The Admiralty believes that the Bayern Road Island outside the city of Pagelang is very good. If it were not, Stephen Ge might not have noticed. This small port
The sea breeze blows, and the Imperial battleship group pulls all the sails away. Stephinger’s flagship June Flower is like a giant sea beast, rushing away from the mist that fills the sea. Soon, the Imperial Navy ship The group appeared on the outskirts of the port of Rilang City. Stephen Ge had the title of Wind Wolf among the commanders of the Imperial Navy, which meant that his combat style advocated offensive and was extremely fast. In several naval battles, Stephen Ge’s flagship all rushed. At the forefront of the squadron queue~IndoMTL.com~In the most tragic one, even the main mast of the flagship was broken in two, the side deck was penetrated and flooded, and the entire battleship entered the port almost at an oblique angle. People call Stephen Ge "Crazy Wolf"
" Commander, news from the city, no target was found! Only the governor was caught. According to his account, under the **** of the Fazer fleet, the other party left Rilang City after the farewell banquet last night. "The deputy came up from the back deck, with some worry in his tone." The governor said that the Fazerian fleet has 20 warships."
"Twenty Fazer battleships! The whole team turned, let's go to Baienlu Island"
Stephenger's eyebrows are slightly furrowed, and his fingers are squeezed tightly. Not all fleets can sail at night. This requires night navigation equipment and rich experience. Even if Fei Ze people can sail at night, it seems that there is no need. I eagerly left at night. The most likely thing is that the Fazer people want to show their power in front of the Paput people without the navy. After leaving Rilang City, it is very likely that they will stop on Bainlu Island to rest.
I only sent four Dragon Tooth battleships to Baienlu Island, but the opponent is a medium-sized fleet with 20 battleships. Even if the Dragon Tooth is fully fired, it may not be able to hold the five times the gap. The situation of the previous imperial naval battles is showing,
The enemy force that Dragon Tooth can fight against cannot exceed three times, otherwise it will be in danger of being destroyed. Now Stephenger can only pray and hope that the main fleet must withstand it before it arrives!
