Power and Empire Chapter 3097: Aden Battle Cloud (9)
The fleet is turning into a group of silver arrows, splitting the waves on the high winds and waves. Standing on the bow of the Hurricane Aden battleship, the navy commander Goodage, who is almost old, has pale hair. The sea breeze was fluttering, and his eyes flashed with complex expressions, staring at the huge fleet of 110 naval warships and more than 300 transport ships in front of him, starting from Longting Port, which is located in the extension of the waters controlled by the Kingdom of Aden. The bow is like a razor, and on a forest-like mast, huge sails are facing the rising sun in the east, representing the huge silver moon flag of the Kingdom of Aden, under the sun like embroidered with a gold border, white seagulls screaming Up and down from the masts of the hull
Such a large-scale dispatch of ships, in the memory of the old commander, only happened when the Aden Kingdom fought for life and death against the Nanxi Empire fifty years ago. It was also because of the defeat of the Westward War, the Kingdom of Aden. Decided to get out of the quagmire of the Obaro battlefield and decisively shift the center of gravity to the east. As the large oasis is gradually unified by the Aden people, the desire of the Aden people to expand to the east is increasing.
Finally, under the unanimous request of the kingdom, the Kingdom of Aden decided to risk war with the powerful overlord Nanxi Empire at that time. The strangulation of the navies of both sides became the center of gravity of the entire battle. The Nanxi Navy has dominated the sea for more than 30 years and has countless warships. , Excellent generals gathered, naval commander Rajal Bomi, is also known as the rare naval genius of the Southern Empire in a century
Faced with such an adversary, the Aden Navy, which has been built with the power of the whole country for five years, is said to be reluctant to be a newcomer. After several collisions, the Aden Navy is a disastrous defeat, and ultimately it is the contribution of the Red Dragon Palace. The secret of black oil was revealed, and the Aden Navy was equipped with black oil jets. Finally set up an ambush in the Kurai Strait, and burned the prosperous main force of the navy in one fell swoop. The commander of the navy of the southern navy, Rajal Bomi committed suicide. The warship lost three-quarters and more than 50,000 outstanding naval forces were killed. The admiral system, which was cultivated only ten years ago, suffered all losses in this battle, and even suffered the tragic death of three generations of grandparents and grandchildren.
In that battle, the Kingdom of Aden used the loss of 23,000 sailors, and 117 heroic nobles died in battle, marking its own golden age. At that time, Gudeya was still mixed in the crowd to see off his father. The youngest son, looking at his father in the neatly dressed kingdom navy uniform, said decisively goodbye to the battleship group flying the flag of the Aden Navy, just like this, moving towards the sea area representing the east of the kingdom, fifteen days later, the news came back. Let the entire Kingdom of Aden boil, the Aden naval fleet defeated the navy overlord of the sea, the Nanxi Imperial Navy, and replaced Nanxi as the master of this sea area. From that moment on, the sea area in front of me became the maritime territory of the Kingdom of Aden
For the Aden Navy, the victory of the Qurei navy is the most glorious moment of the Aden navy, but in the eyes of Gude Yage, the Qurai navy represents another layer of meaning, that is, advanced weapons. The balance that can determine the victory of naval warfare, even if it is the outstanding navy of the South China Navy and the command of the first navy commander, in the face of absolute suppression, it is also a defeated situation. Naval warfare is different from land warfare and cannot be like land warfare. According to the terrain, weather, and even special circumstances, naval operations, except for specific lure ambushes, in most cases, naval fleet collisions are unexpected, and both sides are unprepared. Whoever has advanced weapons is equal to mastering victory
Fifty years have passed, children have become old people, and the supremacy of the Aden Navy has also begun to be challenged by another powerful enemy, that is, the Falcon Empire
The army of the Falcon Empire, swept by a hurricane, rose strongly in just five or six years. It conquered Gaul, the traditional empire in the north, annexed the Gangfei of Central Europe, and then swept all the way in Central Europe. The Istan Empire was also unable to stop the conquest of the Imperial Army, and finally triggered the world-renowned North-South War. Facing the entire South, the Falcon Empire Army defeated the Southern Allied Forces with one country's power, shocked the world, and completely established the Falcon Empire in Ouba. The well-deserved supremacy of the Luo area, and then spread throughout the continent, is the world of Falcon Armor, Imperial Crossbow, heavy crossbow, fuel bomb, Thor, and even small bombs. These new weapons are emerging. Step by step, the emperor team has been pushed to the pinnacle of the times. An extremely powerful super empire spanning three continents has already formed under the trembling eyes of everyone. This is a population of more than 200 million and a geographically long and wide capital. Overlord over five thousand miles,
Compared with the mighty imperial army, the imperial navy has turned the entire Obaron inner sea into an imperial inner sea with no inferior ambitions to the army. Its weapons are sharp, and its performance is even crazier than that of the army, the imperial Thor The main force of the navy smashed the inland sea with bright flashes of fire. The number of warships of the Imperial Navy has expanded from less than 50 at first to more than 200 now.
The dragon-class battleship, which is both large and powerful enough to be called a sea fortress, is equipped with a flax butterfly thunder gun which is said to be capable of sinking a main battleship with a single blow. The real dragon of the sea makes the enemy invincible and swift. The fast-type dragon-tooth warship that can shred any enemy quickly, and even can open into the inland waterways. From the army to the city's coastal targets, it can launch a powerful attack, completely changing the traditional navy's impression that it can only sail and sea, and become the empire's development against the enemy. The weapon of attack and threat has changed the battle of the empire many times
And what makes Gudeya's brows frown most is not entirely the sharp weapons of the Imperial Navy, but also the outstanding naval admirals cultivated by the Imperial Navy in the smoke of a series of naval battles, from the Gaul Navy To the Congolese Navy and the Strand Navy, the navies that have run across the Obaro region have now become history, but the sum of the warships combined by these navies is a real boost. The feared number is 1,000. Even if it is a conservative estimate, Gudeya believes that this number is only a lot more. After such naval battles, what kind of naval monsters have been cultivated, I am afraid that only the genius Got it,
This is a crazy opponent, powerful, fearless, cutting-edge, courageous, ruthless, new weapons, the navy will be used in various ways, subverting everyone’s eyeballs, no sense of honor, inferiority, in order to achieve For strategic purposes, even bombarding civilians and cities many times, wise and cunning like a fox, several times when they were ambushed, they counter-killed their opponents, creating confusing results. This is a matter of both its combat power and The new-style navy whose willpower is in the overturn of the times
When the old commander Gude Yage was in the office to review the battles of the Imperial Navy, the scene that popped up most in his mind turned out to be the one that brought the Kingdom of Aden into the golden age fifty years ago. Before the Great Battle, the fresh-hearted naval officers of the Aden navy, who had no idea what they were afraid of, were a group that had been forgotten by most of the people of Aden. For the rise of the Kingdom of Aden, they finally used their own sacrifices to strengthen the South. The fine navy introduced the ambush circle, and along with the flaming warships of the southern fine navy, they sank in the depths of the tragic sea. That battle marked the golden age of Aden
In the following two decades, the Aden Navy entered the South China Sea and opened a golden business route from the Aden waters to the Central Biya waters. The wealth from the eastern continent was transferred to the Kingdom of Aden, and the Aden Bend was prosperous. The light of the film, the territory of the Kingdom of Aden has expanded more than three times than it was 50 years ago. The unified oasis has become the golden business line that runs through the two continents. Aden, which occupies such an important position, is naturally a profitable basin. The Aden nobles, who came here over the thorns and thorns, have long lost the audacity of their ancestors who cast swords and plows in the past decades. Most of the floats on the blue sea of Aden can be brought to the nobles. Fortune’s merchant ships loaded with cargo and the latest warships were all built ten years ago. Not many people still remember that if it were not for the **** battle of the Aden Navy, this trade route would not have been opened. I won’t have a chance to come and go here unimpeded
All this changed half a year ago. In the Qinglong Bay of the South China Sea, the Song fleet and the Falcon Imperial Navy attacked the Aden Navy. The Aden Navy's Central and Biyarian Squadron was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. In the following half a year , The Aden Navy’s strongholds in the South China Sea of Central and Biyadh were pulled out one by one by the Imperial Navy, and the maritime trade line from the eastern continent was interrupted. This is like an earthquake news among Aden’s domestic nobles.
The empire’s battle for the Port of Cornelia has made the Aden nobles feel dissatisfied. As the other end of the trade route across the desert, Cornelia is very important to Aden, otherwise the Kingdom of Aden will not At all costs, Cornelia would also be snatched from the Eero Empire, but due to special reasons, coupled with the news from the Red Dragon Palace, the Kingdom of Aden gave up Cornelia, the golden exit to the sea. As a result, the Aden nobles have begun to feel the pressure. Now, even the east business line is also under threat. If this continues, the Aden nobles will have financial deficits.
At this time, a message sent back by the Grand Elder of the Red Dragon Palace, Yaglun, who was in charge of the affairs of the Eastern Continent, made the entire Kingdom of Aden boil.
Elder Agleon has been in the East for more than ten years, and has always been the spokesperson of the Kingdom of Aden in Zhongbia. For more than ten years, this great elder secretly collected information about Zhongbia, enough to pretend With three big houses, no one would question the lie of the respected elder. In fact, the report was submitted in the name of the Red Dragon Temple, just like the report submitted by the Red Dragon Temple fifty years ago. The Kingdom of Aden decided to withdraw from the dispute on the Obalo side and began to expand on the eastern continent, which eventually formed the current Aden
"The Central-Byanian Empire in the Eastern Continent, under the cruelty of the prairie cavalry, has reached the point of disintegrating. The huge wealth and land are in a state of unattended." At the meeting in front of the palace of the King of Aden, The report placed on the table, the monarchs and ministers of Aden, breathed a little bit thicker involuntarily
According to the report of the Grand Elder Agleon, the entire Zhongbia court has only a mere 100,000 troops, and its military equipment is lax. The number of recruits who cannot withstand the First World War has reached 50%, and they are also surrounded by the imperialist regiments. On the front line of Deyang, it may be destroyed at any time
For an empire with a population of tens of millions, one hundred thousand military power is in fact no more. In the eyes of the kings and ministers of Aden, this report is like seeing a big cake placed In an unguarded position, you can pull out a large piece of cream from the top with a gentle stretch of hand.
"What do you think of this report by Elder Aglan?" King Aden's deep icy blue eyes looked at the stars outside through the viewing window, turned around, and looked at his generals. , Such an opportunity is in front of us, it is a temptation for any monarch. If the Wang ** team can land, it is entirely possible that in a short time, it will force the Central and Biya court to be attached to the Kingdom of Aden, and this vast and fertile land will not cost much. The power of blowing dust into the territory of Aden
If this is really achieved, this will definitely be the biggest harvest in the more than a hundred years of eastward movement of Aden. As for the emperor of Central Biyah, in Agleun’s report, he just gave such an evaluation. "Even if not With the sudden appearance of the imperial navy, the Aden navy has escorted this mediocre emperor of Central Pia back to Aden"
"Capture an emperor"
The gaze of the King of Aden looked cloudy, and the gaze looking at the night sky through the window~IndoMTL.com~ showed the depth of the vast night hall. Under this black sky, how many things I can't see are happening. Happen
The loss of Cornelia and the loss of nearly a million lives ultimately made the exit of the trade road west of Aden be controlled by the empire, which had a great influence on the prestige of his king, especially in the direction of the Great Desert Oasis. The oasis country under the strong pressure of Aden has a tendency to move around. The nobles also complained repeatedly because of the cutoff of commercial lines and the loss of their interests. Aden needs a successful foreign war to suppress domestic instability. Although his reign has been a long time that has been rare in recent generations, his external expansion has not been very smooth. In the North-South War, Aden’s 60,000 elite camel cavalry participated in the battle, almost completely wiped out, and the battle for Cornelia In the end, the mobilization of millions of troops will not stop. The King of Aden even has a foreboding that in the records of later generations, among the Aden monarchs who are born in succession, his own evaluation is probably more ironic. , The bitter king, the widow maker. . . . .
"Your Majesty, if this report by Elder Aglan is half truthful, then you should give it a try. Even if it fails in the end, at least you can make up for the losses we have suffered from the Central and Biya area."
A general of the Kingdom of Aden stood up. He was Marshal Kauts of Aden. His brown hair was wavy like a lion’s mane, making him look full of courage, like a lion standing up. This famous expansionist in the Aden Army is one of the mainstream figures who expanded eastward and one of the three army marshals. His gaze swept across the faces of other generals with sharp and sharp eyes, and finally fell on the commander of the navy. De Yage said with a cold voice on his face, "But the premise is that our naval fleet can send the Aden army to the land of Central and Biya, instead of being sunk by the Falcon Imperial Navy in the middle of the journey."rw
