Power and Empire Chapter 3110: Crazy Aden (3)
"It takes time for reinforcements to go south, and reinforcements will not come to Anta Island"
Looking at Casti’s red face with excitement, the officer from the Admiralty shrugged his shoulders, and what he said was like a basin of ice water dripping on Casti’s head, who was inexplicably excited.
"What does this mean?"
Kasty’s face changed slightly and he wanted to get angry, but facing the imperial navy technical director with extraordinary status in the imperial navy, if he finally suppressed the anger in his heart, he smiled bitterly and said, "Your Excellency Director Kurumas, Don’t make jokes like this, if reinforcements don’t come to Anta Island, what does it mean to me!"
"Excuse me, if reinforcements come to Anta Island, can your Commander guarantee that Anta Island will not be lost?" The Admiralty officer known as Kurumas is a middleman who is about forty years old. Young people, although Tongshan hustle on the head, but the dark red eyebrows and mustaches are thick and thick, the nose is red, like a fat baby with sufficient nutrition, the whole body is radiant. At first glance, he looks quite like the owner of a beer house, but his heavyweight status in shipbuilding technology is the top even in Obaro. In front of the technical director of the Imperial Navy, who was a real master craftsman, he also maintained a polite attitude
Imperial Navy’s most powerful sea fort Dragon-class battleship is the handwriting of the technical director of the Imperial Navy. Although the idea of the Dragon-class battleship was originally proposed by His Majesty the Emperor, he also roughly drew an appearance. Figure, but being able to build an unprecedented giant ship with just a single appearance drawing, this is the most admirable part of the technical director of the Imperial Navy
If the Dragon Tooth battleship represents the determined expansion of the empire, then the Imperial Dragon-class battleship is a naked demonstration of the hegemony of the Falcon Empire to all countries, which is the assembly of firepower, destruction, and powerful transportation. As a one-piece super battleship, a dragon class can transport one thousand imperial soldiers and their equipment at one time. Even if its devastating attack power is eliminated, the troop transport capability alone is enough to make other countries feel trembling. A heavily armed imperial soldier, in terms of combat power, nearly three times the ordinary soldier, if it is five dragon class, that is 10,000 imperial soldiers, if all are elite troops, then on any battlefield, it is enough to create a balance. Of tilted investment
As for the drawings of the Dragon-class battleship, one of the top military secrets of the Imperial Navy, apart from the emperor and the minister of the Imperial Navy, only the technical director of the Imperial Navy has actually seen it.
The emperor dared to order the two Dragon-class battleships to be borrowed as parts, and then to be transported by horse-drawn carriages across the imperial wilderness, and then re-assembled in the dock upstream of the waterway. The various key crafts and structures involved, Without the technical director of the Imperial Navy, it would be absolutely impossible. Fatty believes that even after the two Imperial Dragon-class battleships are dismantled, they can be reassembled intactly.
And this master of Dingding, who was regarded by the Imperial Navy as precious as an eye, was secretly transferred to Central Bialand by the emperor. In addition to being responsible for the assembly of the two dismantled Dragon-class battleships, he also had to In Central Piazza, we are looking for an important task that can build the naval port of the Imperial Dragon-class battleship, so even Casti, the young and prosperous imperial navy, looks like the owner of a beer house. In front of me, I didn’t dare to explode the slightest temper.
"Should... Can't hold it!"
Kasti opened his mouth, and wanted to pat his chest and say that it must be okay, but I don’t know why, under Director Kurumasi’s fierce gaze, he still showed timidity and sighed for a long time." Well, I admit that with just one squadron, I want to block the main attack of the Aden navy. Even if two more Dragon-classes are added, the result will not change much, but there are two Dragon-classes. At least it can let the squadron get rid of the dilemma of having to rely on Anta Island and give full play to its mobile combat capabilities."
"In other words, in the end, Anta still can't defend, and the Aden Navy will still step on the corpse of the imperial squadron, right?"
"That's right, but I can assure you that the Aden Navy will be delayed for at least one month in the Anta waters." Casti's face was grim, his head held up, and his answer was a bit tragic. This is his last bottom line and pride, although two ships The Longya battleship cannot change the overall situation, but it is also a strategic victory to block the Aden Navy for a period of time.
"Then I understand why your Majesty does not allow reinforcements to come to Anta. Don't look at me with such a look. I am only the technical director, not the commander of the fleet. This is not what my majesty meant. Your Majesty is very satisfied with the glorious record of the fleet in Mas Port, but your Majesty believes that the Aden Navy can dominate the Gulf of Aden for decades. Its naval strength is not under the imperial fleet. Since it has completely angered the Aden people, it is still safe. The tower is stupid. The empire is not hypocritical enough to use the blood of navy officers to forcefully support the facade!" Kurumasi lived to the point, his eyes flickered, and he took out a red copy from his arms. Sealed order "This is an order signed by His Majesty personally when I left, requesting the squadron to withdraw from Anta before the Aden Navy attack!"
"Evacuate? Where to go?"
Kasty suddenly became nervous when he heard the emperor’s order. He carefully accepted the order book from Kurumasi. He opened it and looked at it in confusion. He glanced over, his body trembled slightly, his eyes widened, and his voice was loud. Some trembled
"This...Is it too big to retreat? Just give up the entire southern waters of Central and Biyah. Then the results we have achieved in the South China Sea for more than half a year are not all in vain, and now the fleet is in vain. Just after a big victory, the morale of the whole army was high, and suddenly the whole line was ordered to withdraw. I was afraid that the fleet would not comply with it."
As for the content of the command book, Casty, a naval genius, was also shocked. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, and the person who came to deliver the command book, he was also an extremely heavyweight in the Imperial Navy. Everyone has to doubt whether this is a fake command letter from the Aden Navy, whose purpose is to capture Anta Island without blood.
"The emperor actually asked the fleet to directly abandon the entire southern waters of Central Piazza and withdraw the entire fleet to the southern coast of Central Pia where it started. This is almost like asking the imperial squadron that has been fighting **** battles for more than half a year. It’s just as difficult to get back to the original point." Casti’s face was uncertain. After all, he was born in the former Strandt navy. He joined the imperial camp for a year or so. Not like other generals who have followed the emperor for many years. Trust
"Your Majesty’s arrangement is not something we people can guess, please execute the order"
As someone who has followed the emperor for several years, Kurumasi has been more natural. He glanced to the left and right, and whispered, "If it weren't for the incredible order, I don't need to come in person, Your Majesty. I also know that this order is difficult to execute, so you used the reason that the fleet returned to accept the Dragon-class warships. As for the defenders of Anta Island, I took them away with the order of the Admiralty. Remember, it must be before the Aden Navy attacks. "
"Before the Aden navy attacked? Okay, I understand"
Kasty took a deep breath, nodded, and said in a condensed voice, "Although I don’t know the intention of your majesty’s move, it’s a pleasure to be able to not let the entire fleet carry the main force of the Aden navy in Anta. It’s true that the feeling of being a fugitive is certainly uncomfortable, but we are going to take over the battleship, and it is the Imperial Dragon-class battleship that everyone wants to see, so it should be justified! According to our intelligence, the two squadrons of the Aden Navy have opened. The time when its main force began to advance should also be within these three days. This time the Aden Navy adopted the tactics of alternate advancement of sub-fleet, with a total of 260 warships..."
"Have you heard, the emperor assigned two Dragon-class battleships to us!"
"It's true or false, it's impossible to handle it, just the Southwest Waterway, which is the same as the stream, the dragon class simply can't get through"
"I don't know, but the commander has ordered that the entire fleet go to the south coast of Central Biyah to welcome the addition of these two Dragon-class battleships!"
As the news spread intentionally, the entire Imperial Navy in Anta knew that the squadron was about to take over the two Dragon-class battleships, although the commander asked everyone to meet the two Dragon-class battleships. I was dissatisfied, but thinking of the increased combat power brought by the two Dragon-class battleships to the entire fleet, the admirals of the warships also expressed their tolerance. The Imperial Navy began to leave Anta, but the admirals of the navy were a little confused. Since they were going to meet the Dragon-class Battleship, why did you order the imperial Thor on the three turrets on the island to be taken away? Casti also gave a big gift to the upcoming Aden Navy
"Commander-in-chief, the whole area is the Anta waters"
The adjutant came up from behind and reported to Gudeyage, the commander-in-chief of the Aden Navy, who was standing at the bow of the ship.
The old admiral’s wrinkled and deep-skinned pupils flashed a cold light, and his thin figure, set against the uniform of the navy admiral of the Kingdom of Aden, showed a strong, iron-like aura.
"With such a large-scale fleet attack, will the Imperial Navy flee without a fight?"
Yia appeared next to Gude Yage and looked around. Around Gude Yage’s Aden navy flagship, on the wavy sea outside Anta, the huge ships of battleships weighed down on the front On the surface of the water, from below, hundreds of Aden sailing warships are like giant whales swimming in the blue sea. The towering masts are like dense forests. The white sails are swelling in the sea breeze, pushing the warships to break through the sparkling waves, just like Countless coulters broke the sea surface in front of you, and the long white water waves dragged out, as if the sun was blocked by a group of whales on the surface. At the top of the mast, the two flags of the Aden Navy, which are customary, gleamed under the vast sky. Brilliant, behind the battleship, there is a larger number of transport ships, more than two hundred, the huge figure can be described as covering the sky and sun for several miles, this kind of momentum is only used to crush an Anta Island
"Want to run, absolutely impossible, I won't let them slip away like this!"
Thinking of the raging fire in Mars Bend, the commander-in-chief of the Aden Navy, Gudeya Ge, was full of anger on his face, and hit the ship’s side with a fist. The Imperial Navy destroyed Mars Bay, destroyed the big shipyard, and caused With tens of thousands of casualties, the entire port was almost completely destroyed. It would take at least three months to recover to the previous level. The losses of the large shipyards and craftsmen cannot be calculated at all. It almost brought the Aden Navy back to 20 years overnight. Before,
The countless hard work that Gudeya spent in this way turned into a cloud of dust, which is like a sword in his heart, bloody
How did Gudeya take this breath willingly! The main force of the Aden Navy was assembled this time to start strangling the Imperial Navy fleet on Anta Island, and to do everything the Imperial Navy did in Mas Harbor. The Imperial Navy has Thor, and the Aden Navy also has black oil bombs." The Lu family, the fleet has reached the outskirts of Anta Island, let them be prepared," Gudeya raised his hand and waved to the adjutant
From the people who came back from the first attack on Anta Island~IndoMTL.com~Gudeyago learned that one of the three powerful forts on Anta Island has been destroyed. This is an island, even if It was the imperial navy that rebuilt a fort, and it was not able to do it in just a dozen days. Then the best breakthrough point for this landing in Anta is it!
Soon, news came that a breakthrough was found, Gude Yage smiled slightly, the battleships of Aden lined up outside Anta Island, the slings on the battleships were pulled away by the winch, and there was a burst of tight sound. Balls were pushed into it, and the soldiers standing next to them holding torches, the sea breeze screamed against their faces, and the battle flag of the Aden Navy made fierce noises above their heads.
At this moment, the air seems to freeze
Gude Yage looked at Anta Island in front of him with bloodshot eyes, stretched out his finger to a large piece of woods on the edge of the island, and slowly raised his hand "Let’s start!"
"Start, launch!"
"Launch, light them up"
Various sounds sounded on the battleships
The time for Masiwan’s revenge has arrived. The Imperial Navy can burn Mas Harbor, and the Aden Navy can burn the Anta Island. He believes that the Imperial Navy must have seen a large number of Aden Navy, hiding in a certain part of the island. The place dare not come out, Gudeya brother will use the method of smoking mice to smoke out the Imperial Navy fleet on Anta Island
The voice of Gudeya fell, huhuhuhu, countless fireballs rose from the Aden naval battleship, the white and red huge light ball, burning, dragging a long tail, passing in the air , Hit the woods on the island fiercely, and a bigger and more dazzling light will shine. With the sound of the flame spreading, countless red fire points spread in all directions, and the place where the fire points fell, quickly burned, Ann The dense forest belt on Ta Island is spreading rapidly at this moment, huge black smoke billows up, permeating the entire Anta Island, rw
