789 Sea Breeze VII
"Boom"
There was a stirring thunder in the cloudy sky, and on the semicircular corner fort that protruded outward from Tiha Fort, the commander of the Nord First Fleet, Marquis Mosa Langkos, held the cold city wall in his hand, and his fingers were a little pale from too much force,
His deep gaze was fixed on the rough sea in the distance, and the long white waves rolled out of the darkness in the distance one after another, roaring all the way to the cliff wall of the island, making a deafening crashing sound, and the splattered white foam shimmered red in the lights of the military port.
This is the sea, so vast that it is hard for anyone to imagine where it will be at the end of this ocean, or the edge of the legendary earth.
At the entrance of the military port, a wreck of Nord warships that rose and fell in the waves, was beaten full of open wreckage, and several warships escorted by escorts outside the port were dragged into the port with cables, this is not the first and will not be the last, these worn-down warships are all washed over from the direction of the Ferrand Island chain, with the agitated waves, and all of them are Nord warships, which undoubtedly proves the situation of the Second Fleet on the Ferran Island chain
There is no doubt that the Second Fleet was attacked, and the Falcon Navy really took advantage of this winter storm season to cross the most dangerous deep-sea area and block the main force of the Second Fleet that was taking refuge in the port of Ferran, and fought fiercely for half a day, and more than 60 warships of the Second Fleet, large and small, were all sunk by the fierce Falcon Navy in the port of Ferran, which was only 1,500 meters long and wide.
Although he did not see it with his own eyes, the Marquis of Mosa Langcos was enough to imagine what a terrible picture it was.
In front of the Falcon Navy, the inexperienced Nord Second Fleet was completely the target of slaughter, and according to some of the sailors of the Second Fleet who had escaped, the entire port of Ferran was clogged with the wreckage of sunken battleships, and countless corpses were like floating red algae on the sea, which could not be counted
Only some smaller warships were able to rush out of the narrow exit, but under the dense blockade of the Falcon Navy, less than a tenth could rush out alive, and most of them were beaten and incapacitated, if it were not for the tide of the sea, the huge Nord Second Fleet would have been completely annihilated in the Ferry Island chain
Now the Marquis of Mosa Langcos can only hope for an army of 1,500 men stationed on the island of Ferran, although it is not large, but there are also 1,500 troops stationed on it, plus 11,000 men of the Second Fleet.
If you defend properly, or if you can wait for reinforcements to come to your rescue, but where are the reinforcements? The Marquis of Mosa Langkos had sent a swift report of the situation, stationed at the Nord naval headquarters, 40 miles away, and made his point clear
"The Falcon Navy's target should not be a chain of Ferran islands of little strategic significance, but the core of the entire southern seas, Tiha!"
"Now, I can only resign myself to fate! I hope God will bless the Second Fleet" The Marquis of Mossaloncos solemnly signed his name on the report and handed it to the herald waiting behind him, and then turned around to look at the sky in the distance, his solemn gaze seemed to have crossed the distance of the ocean, looking directly at the Second Fleet that was fighting fiercely in the waters of Ferran,
The muffled thunder in the sky kept coming from the distant sky, in the ears of the Marquis of Mosa Langkos, it was the howling of the sea, or more like a whimper, the destruction of the Second Fleet was irreversible, the next target of the Falcon Navy should be Tiha, where he was, the 80 warships of the First Fleet were ready to go,
Marquis Felita, the Nord Admiral who received the report of the First Fleet, felt very depressed, although he had long known that the Nord Navy would inevitably have a mortal battle with the Falcon Navy, but he did not expect it to break out in such a situation, although the Nord Navy had an advantage in the number of warships, after the integration of the Ali family and the Feranli fleet, the newly built Nord Navy had more than 200 warships,...,
Compared with the 100 warships of the Falcon Navy opposite, the number has reached 2:1. But if the actual combat power is picked up, it is too insufficient, and the Falcon Navy has been prosperous in the past two years, as if it has become the first hegemon in the southeast seas, and fighting with such an experienced and spicy opponent makes him feel at a loss.
The defeat of the Second Fleet was expected, and the commander of the Second Fleet, Molie, was a traditional samurai, and had always had great opinions about the transfer from the illustrious army to the penniless navy.
In order to appease this highly anticipated samurai general and set an example for the samurai generals to step into the ranks of the navy,
His Majesty Yagrolc even personally boarded the flagship of the Marquis of Morlie and named the latest Storm Sea Serpent-class battleship to be launched "Long Live King No!"
In November, as the aftermath of the Battle of Salander hit, the Falcon Navy's powerful cross-sea combat capability shook the Nord Admiralty, which was also a neighbor in the South China Sea, and the orders of all fleets to guard against the Falcon Navy's surprise attack were immediately issued.
But the Marquis of Morrie, who had a special favor and was the commander of the Second Fleet, had always done his own way to the orders of the Admiralty.
On the grounds of high winds and rough seas and unsuitable navigation, he repeatedly refused the Admiralty's order to cruise, only focusing on the Ferrand Island Chain, and threatening that "the Ferrand Island Chain is a rope around the neck of the Falcon Navy, if the Falcon Navy dares to come, I will use this island chain full of thorns to strangle these ignorant Wikibians!"
For the defeat of this unruly and self-righteous Marquis of Morlie, Marquis Felta did not feel any pity, if he had to say that he had any feelings, it was that it was best for him to die,
This is the ocean, not the land where traditional samurai have fought for thousands of years.
In this new field, even the most experienced guy is, he is just a toddler, not to mention that this guy has no ability, if he has any special talents, it is that he is the brother-in-law of His Majesty Yagrolc
But if it is said that the natural barrier of the Fraland Island Chain is lost so quickly, it is indeed beyond the estimate of the Marquis of Felita, you must know that there is a strong defensive fortress on the Ferran Island, although it is not as strong as the land fortress, but it is not facing the stubborn army after all, but the navy on the warship, the defenders of 1,500 people plus the Second Fleet, and this is the end?
Marquis Felta could imagine how ugly Yagrolk's iron-blue face would be if he submitted such a report, and rescue would be impossible, and Felita also thought that the judgment of the Marquis of Mossaloncos, the commander of the First Fleet, was not wrong, and the chain of Ferran could be recaptured if it was lost, and if Tiha was lost, His Majesty Yagrolc would definitely cut off his head to vent his anger
But it can't be looked at like this, it's better to find a scapegoat!" Marquis Felta looked at the pale head of the intelligence department at the door with a worried gaze
Why is this happening? Why is there no report on the Falcon Navy fleet leaving the military port, your intelligence department is just rubbish! I am so disappointed in you! Your military expenses this month will be deducted by another 10 percent!"
In the empty office of the Minister of the Admiralty, the Marquis Felita paced back and forth very irritably, staring at a pair of gray-white goldfish eyes, and loudly questioned the head of his intelligence department,
The clerical staff outside the door looked at each other and quietly withdrew in indignation.
