Power and Empire Chapter 3181: Toggle (5)

The huge body of the main battleship of the Imperial Dragon class was reflected in the golden sunset, and the white waves hit the side of the hull, making waves of crashes, bursts of white foam, and watching the huge white sails in the gold China slowly descended, Kasti, commander of the Empire’s Central and Biya Squadron, took a deep breath

"If the main force of the Aden navy does not retreat, the squadron will not be allowed to attack. This is what your majesty meant.

Kasti asked Kurumas, the fleet supervisor next to him, that in the first battle of Mas Crescent, the Imperial Central Bahia Squadron became famous in the First World War, but with the direct abandonment of the entire southern waters of Central Bahia The behavior also caused this once blockbuster fleet to fall into a state of low morale. As part of the proud imperial navy, it could only watch the Aden navy crisscrossing within its own range, and the entire fleet had to be ordered to hide in Central and Bahia. An inward bend in the south near the edge of the sea. This inward bend is located in an evasive estuary on the southern coast of Central Piazza. It is almost difficult to find if you are not looking for it close. The entire Imperial Navy Central Piazza Squadron is located in the harbor.

"Does the commander want to go out to fight to the death with the main force of the Aden navy, and then completely lose the empire's naval power in China?"

The squadron supervisor Kurumas has a cold look. He is from the background of the Imperial Supervision Department. The empire is giving Castie, the Strand naval genius, the authority to command a fleet alone. Of course, he will not be completely without the command. Temperance, from Castells daring to take the risk of assaulting the heavily guarded Mars Crescent by the Adenites, it can be seen that this Strant genius is bold in using soldiers. If he is allowed to play freely, who knows what the final result will be. ,

"Even if you die in battle, it's better than hiding here all the time"

After getting along for more than two months, Casti shrugged his shoulders. He has long been accustomed to the rigidity of the fleet supervisor. To be fair, the fleet supervisor never interfered with the fleet's combat affairs, but instead used the emperor’s personal orders. As the fleet supervisor, three more Imperial Dragon Tooth battleships and 16 transport ships were added to the fleet from the Imperial Admiralty. This allowed the number of Dragon Tooth battleships in the Central-Biyadh Squadron to exceed 30, plus three. Dragon-class battleships, fifty transport ships. On the whole, the number of battleships and logistical equipment that this fleet should have is also fully equipped, and Casti is most pleased with the 2,000 experienced combatants. The arrival of naval officers and sailors,

These emperor officers and sailors were not recruits, but were officers and sailors from other major fleets with combat experience. They were transferred from each fleet according to the emperor’s order, and they experienced land from the empire. It took a full two months to arrive at the Central Bahia Squadron. With the participation of these two thousand people, the number of sailors in the China-Biyadh Naval Squadron exceeded 8,000.

It’s no wonder that Kasti is also a little uncontrollable. Although he doesn’t say anything, he admits that the emperor’s decision is absolutely correct. It’s fortunate to have such a monarch. If you change to another monarch, I’m afraid Even if it knows that the squadron cannot resist the main force of the Aden navy, it will order the squadron to smash the main force of the Aden navy for the so-called face of the country. It will never order the entire sea area to be abandoned in order to preserve the fleet, especially for the so-called overlord of the European Inland Sea. As far as the Imperial Navy is concerned, the impact is probably not trivial. Even if Casti is not in Obaro, it is still conceivable that the Aden Navy will regain the hegemony in the southern waters of Central and Biya from the hands of the Imperial Navy, which will affect the entire Obaro. The impact caused by the big

"The commander wants to fight so much. I will drive a boat out tomorrow. I can treat it as invisible." Fleet Supervisor Kurumas's mouth twitched.

"I mean, "Kast's face is embarrassed." I am not blind, and I will not see the changes inside. Compared with the raid on Mas Crescent two months ago, the squadron now has both firepower and number of warships. It can be regarded as an increase of more than one-third. In comparison, the Aden Navy is going from bad to worse. You can reap the results just by sitting down. It is unbelievable to say it. I don’t know about the Admiralty. Would Bian say that I am a slacker who eats the fruits of victory...

Casti said this from the bottom of his heart, and a sigh appeared on Kurumasi’s staid face,

"Indeed, who would have thought that this would be the result. I heard that the Aden navy commander Gudeyago has been transferred back to the country by the King of Aden because of overwork."

Who can think of this kind of result, when the main force of the Aden navy came so aggressively, what a force it was to crush the city, a total of more than three hundred superpowers, enough to shock any opponent, but it is This naval force capable of fighting for any sea area was born within two months and was dragged down without experiencing a battle. Because the empire emptied Liucheng Port ahead of time, the Aden army that landed could not get supplies on the spot. Being able to put the entire logistics pressure on the navy, the Luzhou battle, although some supplies were obtained, for the 200,000 army, it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket

The logistics of the 200,000 army is completely focused on naval transportation. This is a fantasy in this era. When the Aden seniors planned to land in China and Biya, they did not consider this issue at all. Now they are on the table. It was completely messed up. The 200,000 army expedition, once lack of food, is a disaster. For this expedition to China, the Kingdom of Aden has already used the national foundation and overwhelmed the kingdom of Aden’s centuries-old national fortune. There is no room to look back. How difficult it is, only gritted their teeth. The materials were transported from the Kingdom of Aden to Crescent Mas, which was already used by the merchant fleet in Aden, and then transported from Crescent Mas to Zhongbia, and the entire Aden Navy. The pressure cannot meet the demand. Moreover, June and July is the monsoon season in the southern waters of Central Bahia. The transport fleet of the Aden Navy knows the danger, but under military orders, it can only forcibly cross and sink in a storm. All

Now the entire southern waters of Central and Bahia have almost become a disaster zone for the Aden Navy. It is conservatively estimated that in the last month alone, the Aden Navy sank more than 30 transport ships due to the storm, and more than eight warships. The loss of supplies is countless, but it is not this that has the greatest impact on the Aden Navy, but the long-term operation of the Aden Navy, which is exhausted. This is the portrayal of the Aden Navy. When the empire is repairing and expanding its strength, the main force of the Aden Navy is communicating. Run around

Because the main force of the Imperial Navy has not been found, this huge hidden danger has not been eliminated, so the commander-in-chief of the Aden Navy, Gudeyago, can only strictly order every transport to send a powerful frigate group, which leads to whether it is a battleship or The transport ships were unable to get a chance to repair them for a moment. For two full months, even if the people could bear them, the ships could not bear it. There were constant problems with battleships and transport ships. A total of three hundred battleships, now excluding the garrison in the south. There are several important islands in the sea, which means less than 200 ships will be repaired. They also need to be stationed in the two parts of Crescent Mas and the Sixth City Port of Central Bia. Even so, the Aden Landing Force still complains about naval transportation. Poor capacity, always unable to guarantee the logistics supply, and the navy engulfed and seized materials seriously, the navy said that the loss was serious along the way, in order to make up for the loss, there is nothing to do except to increase the number of transportation fleets!

Just as the two were feeling emotional, a naval officer came from behind, holding a document with a red stamp in his hand, and said respectfully to Casty, "Commander, the order just sent from the north"

"An order from the north?"

Kasti glanced at Kurumas. The north is called the emperor, because the emperor is now in the northern part of Central Piazza, is it from the emperor’s personal order? Casti couldn't help getting excited, and took the order file to open the seal above, revealing the order book inside. The scribbled writing on it just proved its authenticity. The emperor's words are indeed ugly, even Casti, the pirate. People from the background think so, his eyes swept away, and a smile appeared on the corner of Casti’s mouth

"Your Majesty lets us intercept the transport ships of the Aden Navy from now on. His Majesty finally thinks that it is time for us to take action!"

Cass inhaled in a cheerful breath, and handed over the command book in his hand to Kurumas in a show-off manner. Kurumas took a look at it and handed it back, and said coldly, "I am not responsible for the battle, since It’s the emperor’s order, so let’s execute it. I will summon the admirals of all ships to hold a meeting now. "Kurumas turned and left

Holding the emperor’s order book, Casti’s eyes were shining, and the corners of his mouth slowly turned upwards. The sunlight in the distance shot from the sea level. After suffering for two months, he could finally start fighting. I admire the emperor’s layout power, which is extremely dazzling. Others seem to be performing a magic trick. They do nothing. It only takes time to make the powerful Aden Navy almost exhausted. At the critical moment, give the enemy the most deadly blow,

The imperial Central and Bahia Squadron began to attack. It was not easy to find the transport ships of the Aden Navy. However, the frequent exchanges within two months, the Imperial Navy had already figured out the rules of the Aden transport ships, basically every three days. The Aden naval transport ship, which arrived at Liucheng Port recently, passed through this sea area two days ago. Casti, who had been observing the sea area for a morning, issued the order "Slow down, three knots, trailing forward in a row, pay attention to observation." It was the first time for a fleet that had not officially set sail for two months, and felt tremendous pressure from above and below. The watchman who was in charge of observing and watching had been observing and watching almost the entire morning, awakening the fleet’s 30 dragons. The Ya warship was shot in a straight line and moved forward slowly. The three main dragon-class battleships as the core split a long water mark on the sea, which looked very powerful and powerful.

"It's not coming, right" Kurumas whispered.

"Impossible. The other party’s frequency of once every three days is not wrong. Even if they don’t want to leave Liucheng Port, the Aden Army will force them to leave. I have a hunch that the Aden Navy is near us." With a serious face, once he enters the combat state, his authority is beyond doubt, even if Kurumas is not talking, when everyone is nervously waiting for the Aden fleet to appear, the Aden fleet really appears. At 3:10 in the afternoon, the lookout of the No. 98 Dragon Tooth battleship first sent out and found a target on the northwest sea surface, and then. The Dragonya battleship nearby also sent out the same signal.

"Six large battleships. Seventeen medium-sized battleships and 60 transport ships." The lookout sent a semaphore to report the information. Casty nodded slightly, his blood boiled, and he was caught in the first attack. A big fish, more than 80 ships, if it is sunk, the Aden Navy will be busy.

"Raise the sails, pay attention to all, sail the northwest sea"

According to the command of the flagship of the squadron, countless huge white sails began to be pulled up by the imperial sailors. The white sails were swollen by the sea breeze, emitting a dazzling light under the sunlight, like the sea. At the same time, a layer of white mist rose up. The heavy bow of the battleship shook suddenly, and the water waved. At the same time, the Aden Navy on the opposite side discovered the Imperial Navy. The large and medium-sized battleships responsible for the **** quickly moved out of the fleet, and Casti looked directly at it. Opposite for ten seconds~IndoMTL.com~ took a slight breath, and said in a deep voice, "Start attacking!" The battle flag raised from the flagship narrowed the eyes of the admirals of the Imperial Navy.

"Fire!" The same command was shouted from countless people at the same time

"Rumble...Rumble..." The lined up Dragon Tooth battleship fired first, and the side ship's side suddenly seemed to have a cascade. The white smoke spread out after the spray, almost instantly, the sea surface was like It was boiled, the entire fleet added up to more than three hundred Thors when they launched together, like countless small suns flying from one side of the sea toward the opposite side, and the Aden naval warship in the distance seemed to be frightened by this scene. , The original imposing rush to the oncoming, unexpectedly the stern swung around, but the dense explosion still quickly covered the sides of the two heavy warships of the Aden Navy, even the thick wooden structure, you can clearly see the explosion in the fire. Torn apart, the huge air wave rolled up by the explosion directly drove the Aden people on the deck of the ship to pieces. The cabin at the stern was blown into pits by the direct fire, and it was faintly visible that someone had been blown up. In mid-air, then it fell on the water far away, looking like a huge firework exploding from a distance

"Something is wrong, lean up on the two wings, never let them run away!" Casti put down the sight glass in his hand, and pressed his solemn hand on the wooden armrest of the bridge. As expected, the Aden Navy in the distance left the ship. The group is not to fight, but to escape in the future. The other transport ships are hurriedly turning. One of the large, slow-moving warships was hit in the stern and exploded, blasting the second half of the heavy warship to pieces. A large amount of sea water poured into the stern of the ship, and the warship lost its balance, like a bird being dragged by a cyclone, the entire huge bow of the ship stood up high. Everything on the deck is everything, all involuntarily sliding down the stern into the sea rw
