Power and Empire Chapter 2129: Black August (7)
In late August, the influence of the rainy season is going away, the weather on the sea is renewed and the sun is shining, and the fish on the sea drags out sparkling lines around the battleship group, and kills on the land. The battlefield of Feshan in the sea of blood is different. The battle of Strand, which was bursting like thunder at the beginning, has entered a rare peaceful period at this moment.
Strand’s main naval force was lost, and the imperial navy’s marching northward, such a glorious record, were all overshadowed by the light of the battle of life and death between two powerful forces on land,
An army battle of hundreds of thousands of people, and a sea battle of less than 60,000 people on both sides, the magnificent land battle, the **** battles of the various legions, are naturally even more eye-catching. As for most European countries, they have not paid attention to this aspect.
On the eleventh day when the Imperial Navy arrived on Terryland, the headquarters of the Strand Island State, the letter of surrender finalized by the Strand Council was sent to the flagship of the Imperial Navy. He just glanced at it and looked fat. Calmly forwarded the surrender letter to the naval fleet commander-in-chief Du Stellenkai, and said calmly, "What do you think of the Strander’s surrender letter?"
"This is an insult to the Imperial Navy!" The Imperial Navy minister who has already known the contents of the surrender book has a stern expression on his face.
"Since it is a surrender, all existing fleets should be disbanded and fully surrendered to the management of the empire. However, these Strandites not only asked to keep the existing fleet establishment, but only contributed 1 million gold coins to the empire each year. It’s a matter of fact, and you have to demand island autonomy,
"What a joke, it's true that the Empire fleet is here to visit the mountains and play, even if the shell money is played, it is more than that! 1 million gold coins, to send a beggar!" It is rare to see Dusit! With the look of Lunkai, the imperial general who is known as the first man in the navy of this era. His reputation outside is cold-blooded, and he is known as a cold-blooded butcher who will not change his expression even if an entire fleet is destroyed in front of him. He laughs at the sea as he sees the flames engulfing the city. Of course, such a reputation. , Compared with the one in front of him, it is still a bit less,
Imperial slaughter, driving away the whip of the eternal sky
such titles, each one is a shining emperor crown piled up in a sea of blood on the corpse mountain. As the northern prairie cavalry participated more and more in wars, many of Fatty’s murderous names in the northern part of Ikadiva came out and became more and more familiar.
At this moment, the Obaro nations discovered that this barbaric emperor who had swallowed two empires in just a few years and conquered more than half of the Obaro region with the iron-blooded horseshoe of war was such a terrifying and ruthless man.
Under his command, there are prairie cavalry with a murderous nature. There are heavily armored and invincible Rude fought hard, there are the Vekia warriors who raid like the wind, and the Swadian soldiers with the style of knights, before the Falcon Empire stepped into Obaro. It is already a powerful force with a population of tens of millions and an army of hundreds of thousands, which is not inferior to the major empires of Central Europe and Baro.
from the beginning. What the Falcon Empire launched against Obalo was not an invasion, but a war of conquest!
" The money is a little bit low! "The fat man put his hands on his chin, a little absent-minded. Looking at the blue sea level outside the window, the white seagulls are flying, and the corners of his mouth grin slightly. I don’t know what I’m thinking about. He is unexpectedly calm. Although Fatty is an outstanding strategist, he is easy to make strategic arrangements. Come, but when it comes to the front-line operations of the naval fleet, Fatty is a half-hearted man. This time he has been floating at sea for almost a month. Every day he sees the sea. The scenery on the sea is beautiful, but he can't stand it every day and he feels happy. He has grown hair, and the fat man is looking forward to getting on the land sooner.
"Your Majesty!"
His Majesty Falcon’s distraction made Du Strunkai’s face look ugly, his fingers clenched fiercely, and a trace of hideousness flashed across his face and said, “I’ve said long ago that we must be firm in dealing with Strant’s problem. , The imperial fleet will not stay here for long, even if it can bomb their cities, but after all, they can’t achieve long-term control on the land. The Navy’s Thor ammunition will eventually be finished. As long as the fleet is withdrawn, here is their world. , So even the surrendering faction in the Strand Council also behaved so tough!"
"Oh? What do you mean, after all, you are the commander of this attack! It’s not good to shirk responsibility like this! But Strant’s foundation is like this, plus the current situation, you can ask them They can’t take out 10 million war indemnities!"
The fat man withdrew his gaze in embarrassment, and glanced at Dusterenkai, who was full of anger, and said that he was just a cameo. In naval operations, he had never interfered very much. A small island composed of dozens of small islands. The country, with a population of only a few hundred thousand, is not as good as a middle province in the empire. How much meat do you expect to be able to scrape off the legs of mosquitoes?
"Your Majesty’s attitude, how can it be like this!"
Du Stellenkai’s face was pumping, could it be that this time the navy went all the way back with a million in compensation? That's too shameful!
The imperial navy dispatched such a large scale and so many warships this time. It was originally holding the heart to compete with the imperial army. The imperial army swept Central Europe and the countries of Central Europe bowed their heads. The Stan people jumped, if the navy can't even hold the small Strand sea states, the Imperial Army will not laugh at the navy's incompetence, just such a little result, how can it convince the crowd, and not let the countries of Central Europe and Baro just swept away , The imperial army that made a lot of money on the Feshan battlefield laughed to death! Does the glory of the Imperial Navy have to be under the Imperial Army?
is wrong! Looking across the peaceful and unusual face of His Majesty Falcon, Dusterenkai suddenly hit a spirit in his heart.
is wrong! There is absolutely a problem. The warlord of the Imperial Navy realized that he had overlooked something. When did His Majesty Falcon speak so well? Who was His Majesty Falcon? The super bad guy who was able to put the main force of the Imperial Navy on the privateer fleet, every time Fighting, that time it was not after earning a profit that he was willing to stop,
This time we dispatched such a large-scale fleet, expedition of tens of thousands of people, eating and drinking, only three or four thousand Thor shells were hit. Every day I stay here, as long as the fleet is still floating on the sea, yes. For this guy, he was throwing a lot of money into the sea. The naval expenditure spent this time definitely exceeded one million gold coins. Under normal circumstances, this guy doesn’t mean scraping mosquito legs, it’s the Strands. A stone would have to be thrown into the oil to get the juice out of it before it was reconciled. That time, wasn't it a robber who ransacked his home without paying? Changed from a robber to a lady!
How could it be possible that the sky can collapse, the sea can dry, and the emperor’s nature will never change. Whatever the situation, while hesitating, Dusterenkai tentatively said, "The subordinates think that the Imperial Navy’s long-distance attack, if There is no result at all, so I can’t just take it back."
"So what do you want?"The fat man glanced at him, purely making Dustellenkai want to die,
" " means to attack the stronghold of the Strands! "Du Stellenkai hesitated, took a deep breath, and boldly expressed his own thoughts
" Most of the fleet admiral agrees with this. To the stubborn Strands, it is more effective to use Thor to speak. "Seeing that the face of His Majesty Falcon has not changed, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued to say that although this There are only 5,000 combat personnel in the second fleet, but if you add sailors, you can also make up a landing force of 20,000. It is enough to lay down the stronghold of the Strands and kill the arrogance of the Strands! The situation can be opened up at the negotiating table! Moreover, even though Strant is poor, as the base camp, how can it be more than 1 million gold coins! "
"Are you talking about letting the navy work in the army? It’s not so good! You are not afraid that the Strands will burn the whole island on fire, and have been here with you?"
The fat guy blinked his eyes and opened his hands and said, "You know the stubbornness of the Strands. Those guys, the jade burnt thing is absolutely done. I really want to burn the island of Teneran, don’t Say 1 million gold coins, even if 100,000 gold coins are gone, the Imperial Navy has really become a big joke!"
" Then I’ll be robbing island by island, and I’ve never done it anyway! “Du Stellenkai’s face is gloomy, it seems that I’m being pressed for anxiousness
" Stupid, as the head of the Imperial Navy, this is what you said! Your eyes should not be limited to these small islands, but the entire vast inland sea! "Fatty's face suddenly turned pale. Get up from your seat. "The wealth of the Strand people is not on these small islands. Most of them are used as fixed assets in various ports throughout the inland sea ~ IndoMTL.com ~ adds up to more than tens of millions. Even if you put these small islands All the islands were burned out, and how much they could get. The Strands wanted to save the fleet and let him save it. There were only less than 20 main battleships left. How much wind and waves could be turned up every year. A tribute of 1 million gold coins is not bad. As for autonomy, those small islands are difficult to take into account, and resources are scarce, and the population is sparse. It doesn’t matter if you give it to the Strands on the bottom line, but because of the bad records of the Strands, The Strand Sea Nation must abandon all fixed assets outside of its homeland! This is the key to completely cutting off the possibility of the Strant’s resurrection!"
"Yes... What if the Strantians disagree?" Dustlenko was a little confused, and the Strantians were unwilling to give up their local interests, let alone give up the most. Important external assets
"Yes, Strand is still Strand, no, we take it ourselves!" The fat man glanced at the corner of his mouth
"The Strant people know very well that without the navy, the inner sea is the place where the empire has the final say. If the empire is willing to swallow the assets outside of the mainland, what can be done?,
"As for the issue of landing forces, you can clearly tell the Strands that the 100,000 elites invested by the Empire in the Feshan battlefield are prepared for them. In ten days, the empire’s 100,000 elites will be enough to erase the Strand Sea State from the map. This is the bottom line of the empire, and there is no possibility of bargaining!"
