Power and Empire Chapter 3721: Misty Dawn (8)

The Caspian waters of Zambia, due to its proximity to the estuary of the Eero River, the climate in May has begun to become hot, and the turbulent waters continue to hit the islands dozens of miles away from the estuary, as a crossing The largest river in the entire southern European Baro continent, the exit of the Eero River channel into the sea reaches more than 30 miles. Therefore, the extended continental shelf extends more than 80 miles to the inland sea. The extremely fertile northern Eero Plain is actually It is the result of countless swellings in the Eero Riverway over the past tens of thousands of years. Also within a hundred miles of the sea estuary, a large amount of sediment and continental shelf emerged from the water, forming hundreds of large and small outlying islands. /

These islands are also called the pearls of Zambia by the southern Europeans. This beautiful name is not an auspicious omen. On the contrary, the Eero River estuary is two hundred miles away. Teams are synonymous with danger. They cannot be counted. They are buried deep under the sea, or large and small reefs emerging from the sea surface. At the end of spring and early summer, there will be vortices under the sea between these islands and reefs.

The large vortex can cause the ship to lose control and slam into the nearby islands and reefs. The Eero Empire once wanted to build naval facilities in this area. As a result, the naval fleet that had just launched was hit in the turbulence. It sinks the flagship and becomes the laughing stock of the entire Obaro continent. On some islands and reefs, thousands of years of weathering and corrosion are covered with traces of white, like diamonds inlaid on the surface of the sea. There seems to be a saying The cruel beauty that cannot be seen, at the moment on the periphery of the islands and reefs, the sea in May looks turbulent, the waves are constantly surging, rolling half a meter high waves, those white ice floes are being rolled by the sea, for a while Sinking, floating for a while, glowing colorfully under the sunshine.

The white reef on the island looks like a color from a distance because of the angle of refraction. This is also the origin of the name pearl in Zambia. For inexperienced people, this often creates an illusion. For a long time Watching these beautiful rays of light, but in fact, these rays of light are poisonous. If you stare for a long time, it will cause irreversible damage to your eyes, which is the same as snow blindness in the snow.

"Master Hu Keqili, thirty miles to the east is the estuary of the Eero River. If the adults are interested, I can arrange two Imperial Dragon Tooth battleships to **** the adults to have a look." Wearing the Imperial Navy Dusterenkai, in the uniform of the minister, put the chart in his hand on the table, his eyes were cold and he looked at a middle-aged man in the uniform of an imperial general in the distance. This middle-aged man had cold and sharp eyes. , It is Hu Keqili, Minister of Military Affairs of the Empire,

"It’s still important to do business first. The result of the battle between the Rilla and the Bion should be these two days. We are running out of time. If it’s because we look at the Eero River estuary and cause problems. , Your Majesty will investigate it, you and I will be very embarrassed." Hu Keqili showed a deep and helpless smile on his face. The whole of Oubaro thought that this important empire is now in Central Obaro, and will soon be against the Kingdom of Rila and the Kingdom of Bion. The final ruling of the war was made, but few people knew that the real position of the empire’s important minister was at the mouth of the Eero River, one thousand and one hundred miles away from Central Europe

As the two giants of the Imperial Navy and the Army, the relationship between the two is far from being incompatible with the rumors of the outside world. On the contrary, they were both important ministers in the Emperor Samer era, and their relationship is very good, Hu Keqi The powerful Central Army even took advantage of the relationship with Dusterenkai and established a maritime trade chamber of its own. Many of the wounded officers of the Imperial Central Army became members of this Chamber of Commerce after retiring, and the Imperial Central Army For the war dead, a large part of the pensions far surpassed other legions also came from this maritime trade chamber. To some extent, this can be regarded as a cooperative project between the Imperial Navy Department and the Imperial Central Army. This is mainly because the Empire Admirals of the Navy, more than half of them were once transferred to the navy by the officers of the Imperial Central Army. Although they are not sold to the other imperial legions, they still give face to their old owners and colleagues in the past.

"Well, in that case, please take a rest first, Mr. Hukeqili, I believe that when your Excellency wakes up, everything should have been resolved" Dustellenkai smiled.

"Whether this is the case, to be honest, I have been on the sea boat for fourteen days in a row, and I am almost unable to hold on. I am very grateful to Commander Dustlenko for giving me a chance to rest!" Hu Keqili didn't have any. Reluctantly, he nodded to Dusterenkai, turned and walked out of the command cabin,

He knew that this was due to Dustellenkai taking care of his own face, otherwise he would be the head of the dignified Imperial Army, and it would be a bit embarrassing if he was gaffes in the deafening of the countless Thors of the Imperial Navy, because of this kind of thing. It has happened. Although the army also has Thor, it can reach the maximum scale of a hundred-door volley. In the navy, the hundred-door Thor volley is simply a pediatrics. A Dragon Tooth battleship has forty doors. Landing In the fierce battle, hundreds of imperial naval battleships were bombarded in turn. The number of Thor could exceed 5,000. With countless Thor bombs, it is not an exaggeration to say that the sea is boiling. Navy sailors are used to it. But the army was miserable. There was no sense of security on the ship. Without sufficient mental preparation, the Imperial Army officers and soldiers on the transport ship were scared and paralyzed.

Hu Keqili has seen this kind of thing. Among those people, many of them are elites on the battlefield, killing people like numb, and they are so scared that they can’t speak for a long time. They are completely human. Courage has nothing to do with it, but the ability to withstand a sudden explosion, which is a human instinctive reaction! Returning to his cabin, Hu Keqili lay on the ship, and could feel that the flagship of the Imperial Navy was moving in a certain direction.

The situation in Central Europe is very strange now. The Kingdom of Rila and the Kingdom of Bion are fighting in the Sun Fortress, but what really caught the eyes of the whole of Europe was the arrival of the Minister of Military Affairs of the Empire, Hu Keqili, in Central Europe. Locke Fort, Luogang, every country knows that when the imperial military minister appears in front of everyone again, it is the moment when the war is finalized. Now the Rila and Bion people have already taken out the strength to eat milk. , Are striving to hold the vital solar fortress in their hands before the referee blows the whistle of the empire, and the emperor’s real goal is the Caspian Sea in the eastern part of the Inland Sea, which is not noticed by everyone.

The Eero River enters the sea!

This is the continuation of the Southern War, and it can also be said to be the continuation of the empire’s counterattack. There were three attacks on the empire, along with the northern Feize noble group. From the northern plateau of Feize, they went south crazily, and almost defeated Feize in one breath. The western part of Zee was finally killed by His Majesty, which not only completely eliminated the stubborn disease of the Feize noble group, but also included the northern plateau of Feize into the empire's territory. The other way was the battle of the sacred capital of the religious group, and the empire finally won. , Half a million Martin Liya people were almost destroyed, even the crown prince was captured by the empire, the last way is here, Eero, the Eero royal family and the Eero southern aristocratic group stormed the capital of Eero

Although the southern princes of Eero performed mediocrely in frontal offensives, they did a lot of small actions behind their backs. They even used the convenient conditions of the Eero River to continuously send small groups of troops to bypass the block of the Eero King’s capital. The Great River Road goes all the way to the north. After arriving at the mouth of the sea, it disperses into these islands, and then uses these islands to harass the imperial merchant fleet that passes along the way, in order to contain the imperial military power in the northern part of Eero. After more than two months of reconnaissance, the imperial navy has already figured out these islands. To be precise, most of them are extensions of reefs and continental shelves. Some islands have dense forests and very developed underground caves. The princes in the south of Eero The pirates sent were on these islands. In the emperor’s plan, if you want to drive into the Errone river, these trash fish of the southern princes of Eero must be cleaned up. Among them, the largest island, Kassi Island, is undoubtedly this. The top priority of this battle

"At present, it is certain that there are at least 1,500 Erotians on Kassi Island, accounting for more than half of these Eero pirates"

In the warm sun of May, several Hero pirates lazily watched the tidal flats. Looking at the surrounding sea from time to time, these Eero pirates were prepared for defense against the Imperial Navy. They dug a large number of underground caves, opened up underground tunnels, stored a large amount of materials and bows and arrows. Originally, the Eero pirates believed that the Empire The navy will attack them in winter, because the winter environment is the worst, but unexpectedly, the Imperial Navy did not come in winter. In fact, the Imperial Navy did propose to the emperor to clean up the Erot pirates in winter, but the emperor Your Majesty stopped it

"Just let these Erotians spend a winter under the damp and gloomy ground. Anyway, there are no merchant ships in winter." The Emperor's reply made Dustrum Kai somewhat incomprehensible, but soon, he said The emperor’s sophistication and admiration fell to the ground. These Eero pirates lay in a cave in the winter. Many people fell ill under the cold and wet conditions. In the case of the island that could not be healed, it was a dead end. As a result, A winter has passed, and the number of Eero pirates has dropped from 6,000 at the beginning to more than 2,000 now. Only then did the ghosts know what happened to these Eero pirates on the island. Anyway, Du Stellenkai Not interested in knowing,

He just ordered the imperial navy to stand on the coast with a huge hammer and roar hysterically. The hammer fell in the deep mud and the pirate leader of Airo exploded into mud. It is said that on that island All of the Eero pirates died of illness, and the only one who survived was the mad pirate leader,

At this moment, in the sea area of ​​Kassi Island, the waves are surging more violently. The sea water hits the large and small reefs, slapping the beaches on the shore, seeming to release all the excess energy. . Ten minutes later, in the distant horizon, where the water and sky meet, a long black line appeared. This long line appeared very eye-catching under the clear sky. They are getting closer and bigger

"Dangdang! The Imperial Navy is here again." The sound of the bell ringing from the island’s clock tower made a mess on the island,’

"The imperial navy is here, everyone enters the cave"" I don’t know who screamed, and all the Eero pirates disappeared immediately, as if they had the ability to disappear out of thin air. Their proficiency is sufficient to show that the empire This is not the first time the navy has visited here

At this moment, there are a total of 27 Imperial warships of the Fourth Squadron of the Imperial Navy appearing on the surface of the island of Kassi. This time the Imperial Navy has mobilized the size of the four divisions. The sea is divided into several areas, each area is in charge of a naval squadron, and the fourth squadron is responsible for the location of Kasi Island.

"I will definitely pull out all the rats that only burrow in the ground!"

The commander of the Fourth Squadron of the Imperial Navy, Chekov put down his observation mirror and stood on the bridge of a Dragon Tooth battleship. The waves below the hull rolled and hit the triangle below the bow, quickly like a wreath. The ground is three open. In the lower two floors of the cannon, Raytheon carefully measured the most accurate shooting data with carelessness. The Hero pirates on the island believed that the imperial navy would only bombard and would not land ashore. I thought it was only necessary to hide in the crypt, but this time was different. The Marine Corps of the Imperial Navy also participated in this cleanup operation~IndoMTL.com~ With the sound of clucking, the side of the hull was turning to the ground. The sound of heavy rubbing gave people a feeling of death from hell, and the rest of the Dragon Tooth battleships also began to line up, preparing to carry out fierce shelling on the island.

"All preparations"

Stopping quietly on the sea, the side baffle of the Imperial Dragon Tooth was opened in a series, revealing the dark metal muzzle of the gift package, and behind the Dragon Tooth were forty large transport ships, transporting In addition to a large number of weapons and military supplies, the ship was also loaded with the Second Regiment of the Imperial Marine Infantry, with a total number of more than 3,000.

Rumble...On the surface of the sea, only hot flames were seen flying across the air, falling fiercely on the island, bursting out dazzling flames. Countless exploding scattered, in an instant, the earth moved and the mountains shook, except for the dazzling light. There is also sludge flying in the sky. The soft silt of the islands is constantly turning up in the smoke of gunpowder. After the explosion, deep circular pits are formed. The ground can be seen from the bottom of the pit, and countless blacks can be vaguely seen. Dot ran on the ground after the explosion, and more people were rolling in the mound. It was the Bion pirate hiding in the crypt. The Imperial Navy had visited several times before, but none of them had actually used Thor 1

This time, no one thought that the Imperial Navy came really this time, and was caught off guard. Many pirates were crushed by the collapsed caves.
