1603 Gallic Winter (V)

The white fog is still permeated on the stone road of the port, a Falcon Guards cavalry wearing black armor galloped from the port position, shouting while running, the sound attracted the attention of many soldiers in the military port, under the attention of everyone, the Guards cavalry entered the center of the port, which was a four-story square building, which used to be the base camp of the Southwest Navy, after the Falcon Navy took over, it was used as the temporary headquarters of the Falcon Navy, the Guards cavalry who reported the news stopped the war horse in front of the building steps, the war horse was not very stable, the Guards cavalry jumped down from the war horse with a neat turn, and hurriedly walked up the eighteen steps in front of him,

"Quick, report ahead"

The Guards Cavalry pushed open the door with his right hand, trotted all the way with the battle report in his hand, and the loud sound shook the outer hall on the first floor of the command room, and several Admiralty officers on duty on the side of the road turned their heads almost at the same time, and the adjutant general, who had been waiting for the full-time confidential transmission on the first floor, quickly walked over, took the battle report from the herald, and stopped for a moment on the red sealing mud of the report, and without even a delay in looking at it again, he hurriedly turned around and went upstairs,

The sound of the Adjutant's heavy footsteps crept through the stairwell, then stopped abruptly and vanished......

At this time, the naval officers waiting downstairs had some reactions, and one of the bold officers picked up a pot of wine collected in his desk, quietly handed it to the guards cavalry who was panting at the door, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, can you get to the bottom of it?" Is the navy victorious or ...... this time?"

"Of course it's a victory!" The Guards Cavalry raised his head and poured a sip of wine, and said with some vagueness: "Just now it was the news from the sortie fleet! Lord Dustrenkai's fleet, 40 miles east of the Riston Sea, defeated the Imperial Navy of the Congo that had been following all night in one fell swoop, and sank 74 enemy warships at the cost of 7 dragon's tooth warships! The enemy ship group collapsed and fled in all directions, and there were no more enemy warships in the southwest sea that could fight a battle, although this news has not yet been made public. But it's clear that this will soon be no more of a secret

"So, we won! Win!" The cheers of the naval officers echoed in their ears, and the entire command hall was already a sea of joy, clapping each other fiercely, hugging each other fiercely, slapping each other's shoulders fiercely, and beating each other's chests.

"The entire southwest sea is ours! Long live the navy."

Everyone was laughing, this was a battle of revenge for the navy. How much effort did the whole plan take on the navy, not to mention the transfer of materials, but in order to make up a huge transport ship group of up to 200 ships, it was enough for the Admiralty to be busy and dizzy, "What's going on down there?"

The fat man turned around from the window, his eyes were red like rabbits, he hadn't slept all night, this time the plan was really a bit risky, but it corresponded to the adventure. Once it succeeds, its gains are also huge, and under the heavy gathering of the Congo Navy, it will take the core of the sea in one fell swoop, Adonis, and then return to the horse gun. The key to dragging the main forces of the Congo and Africa into an extremely unfavorable and passive battlefield will be the key to the entire campaign.

But now 20 hours have passed. Even the fat man who has reviewed the entire plan more than a dozen times is just as uneasy in his heart

This is war, and plans can never catch up with change. Anything can happen, victory has never been lightly given, it is the final result of the final exchange of blood, life and will, the attack fleet advanced strongly, but the initial disadvantage was stagnant, and the next ten hours were on the verge of death for the tired sortie ship group, once the Gangfei Navy saw through the strategic intentions of its own side, or gave up tailgating and quickly returned, the 20,000 army forces that were fighting on the island would face the enemy

No one knows how many people will be buried in the vast sea when the war is over. There are even countless of them, and they won't even have a tombstone. However, they left their own footsteps, their own voices, and their own roars in this era, "Your Majesty, the battle report ahead!"

The adjutant on duty hurriedly walked in with the battle report and handed it to the fat man,

The fat man took a look, good news, Dustronikai really lived up to his expectations, at a position 40 nautical miles away from the target trap, he suddenly killed the Gangfei people by surprise, the Gangfei Navy hurriedly met the battle, and the fierce battle lasted for 2 hours, the formation of the Gangfei Navy fleet was disrupted, and the sailors were also tired and difficult to continue fighting, so they had to leave more than 70 warships wreckage and evacuate. The Navy has staked its own life and glory to win the right to now erupt in this resounding cheer!

"Sue Sù Hukochili, who is fighting on Adonis Island, the navy has completed its mission, and it will be up to him next! Before the sun rises on the center line today, I want the battle flag of the Falcon Army to be raised on Adonis Island" The fat man put his hand on the table lightly with a cold face, and waved his hand to the adjutant chief who sent the report, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

The Adjutant Commander exited the room with great interest

The fat man looked at the sea outside the window, and listened to the cheers of the naval officers downstairs, the black pupils faintly flashed with deep points of light, the sponge under the winter sun, with a hint of bright red light, the red sea rolled in the sun, the white waves were dyed red, like a crumpled plain cloth, the port that was once densely masted, at this moment it was empty and could only see the shadows of a few transport ships, the white fog echoed in the port, and the shadows of the patrol soldiers in the port were like in the clouds,

The soul of the Imperial Navy will be cast again in this battle, defeat is not terrible, being able to get up from defeat is what the Imperial Navy needs most, ten minutes later, the fat man received a report from the army, Hukochili really took Adonis Island! The Falcon flag flew over the island of Adonis, marking the complete fall of the Southwestern Seas into the control of the Falcon Navy, and on February 21, the Gangfei Navy, which had lost its refuge and most of its combat warships, had to be pressed by the Falcon Navy step by step, by Acting Commander-in-Chief Roland. Lefebble ordered the evacuation from the south-western seas.

At the end of the 15-day battle in the southwest sea, the Falcon Fleet used incredible lure tactics to severely damage the famous Congo-Africa naval fleet on the continent of Obarro, destroying a total of 179 Congo-African naval ships and capturing nine ships at the cost of 21 warships, and capturing the heavily garrisoned port of Adonis in one fell swoop.

Gang Fei was a famous admiral, the commander-in-chief of the navy, Hobro, and his three fleet commanders were killed, and this battle was praised by later generations as a classic example of "inverted tail hook naval attack tactics". March 2. The pace of spring is getting closer and closer, and Fort Julillsford, the head of the Southwestern Army, who has gained 40,000 fresh troops, has completely stabilized the unfavorable situation, and the crisis in the southwest has finally shown signs of thawing with the arrival of spring. "It seems that it is unfortunate that you have said that as soon as the crisis in the southwest has passed, I have received an order to return to Beijing to report on my work!" In the new building of the navy, the head of the Southwest Army, Fort Julillsford, whose gray hair accounts for almost half of it, smiled bitterly at the fat man who was a little stunned

"How can it be so fast! I will transfer you away now, it's not typical to want to send someone to get credit," the fat man stood up a little angrily, and slammed his right fist on the table. The Falcon Navy has just completed its control of the southwest seas, and if the big patron Julillsford is transferred like this, it will have a great impact on the Falcon Army's operations in the southwest.

"Indeed, even I was surprised!" said Julilsford, who sat down opposite the fat man, "It may be that the Slavs are making too much trouble, and I don't know that from there an unknown military commander, who is said to have defeated the two legions sent by the Emperor in succession, has now gained a firm foothold in the northern part of the empire!"

"Say so. This time it's a lot of trouble in the country, and I have to transfer you back!"

The fat man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he had spent so much effort on Julilsford, although it was already a marriage. But after all, there is a limit to political friendship, once the Gallic emperor really has the heart to reuse Juliersford, who dares to guarantee that the heart of this Gallic Empire general will not waver,

"That's the most troublesome part!" said Julilsford, shaking his head without joy on his face, "fighting the Slavs." There must be an army, but my Fifth Army is in the northwest, and it is impossible for His Majesty the Emperor to allow me to lead the Fifth Army back to Beijing. The other troops fighting against the Slavs were either private armies of various forces or generals related to the Algernon family, and His Majesty the Emperor put me above these people, and he simply set me up and roasted me on the fire!"

"Then you want to go back?" the fat man looked suddenly, this is too shameless

"The southwest will not be my place after all, if I don't go back, I will die in the hands of Gangfei, go back, at least there is some hope!" Julils Fort smiled grimly. The empire has just sent 30,000 reinforcements to the southwest, the commander is Murphyrie family's Murphy Oboone, he is the most elegant person in the Gallic Empire's military circles recently, it is said that he once defeated the famous Central Belgian general Long Yang in Seattle, if it wasn't for the emperor His Majesty suddenly transferred him back, or the battle of Seattle would not have been so bad, the 30,000 people he brought were all the Murphy family's dragon armor army, and they would also take over from me as the head of the southwest region, and it was rumored that His Majesty the Emperor was going to use him to reorganize the southwest army, and if he wanted to rectify the southwest, he would inevitably touch the northwest, so you must be careful!“

Julilsford's voice stopped, and he continued, "I should have half a month left, according to the agreement, you immediately take away the naval supplies, as well as the two cities on the agreement"

"Okay, I'll do my best!" the fat man took a deep breath, he was just as worried about the two cities on the agreement, he was too busy some time ago, although he provoked some border disputes, but it was not yet the final moment, some things must be done naturally, if he really killed someone and saw blood, it would make things very troublesome,

So the fat man didn't take Lidarchus seriously, at most, he occasionally ran over to harass him, scared and scared, and then ran back again,

Some things are done too much, it will make people react numb, the fat man is making such a plan, the fat man wants to engage in peaceful evolution, not the bloody slaughter of the city, at the beginning it really caused a lot of panic in the two cities, seeing so many northwest armies driving over, swords and guns like a forest, the army pressed the city, and the momentum was going to lift off the two cities, "The Northwest Army invaded on a large scale, and immediately rescued Lord Fubao" The garrisons of the two cities were completely frightened half to death, and in just three days, they wrote more than a dozen letters asking for help to Fort Julilsford, knowing the whole plan, Fort Julilsford symbolically sent people over to see the results as if there was a tacit understanding, as long as someone from the southwest army came, the army from the northwest would immediately withdraw without a trace, and after going back and forth a few times, the two cities were also accustomed to it, and sometimes there would even be many citizens running to the city wall, holding snacks, chattering and watching the excitement," That is the Northwest Falcon Army, which is rumored to have defeated the 100,000-strong army in the southwest, and it is really spectacular!" The citizens experienced several big fluctuations and panics, and after discovering that the Northwest Army had no malicious intentions, they were now completely ridiculed in the face of the Northwest Army's action of pressing the city. Even though the city hall has repeatedly reminded the citizens to pay more attention, no one took it seriously, what kind of joke, if the other party wanted to attack the city, it would have been taken in one fell swoop,

Although no one knew what kind of madness the Northwest Army was driving outside the city, no one believed that the patrol team in the city, which was not even in good armor, could really prevent such a powerful army from entering the city?

This is the army, a hundred heroes who have really experienced the battlefield, look at the bloody eyes of those soldiers. and the armor with spots and dimples on his body, no one will doubt that the Northwest Army outside the city is a group of recruits, they are all veterans of a hundred battles, otherwise, where can this kind of just look at the ordinary people feel trembling momentum, some old officers in the city, every time they look at the Northwest Army outside the city, their eyes are red. It's really terrifying, this is the heroic master who crisscrosses the earth!

Compared to a knowledgeable veteran, he can be in a situation where there is no danger. It is too rare for ordinary people to see such a majestic military posture and a truly bloody battlefield of a hundred battles at such a close distance, and I heard that the commander of this Northwest Army is none other than the small city of Rwanaka that resisted the 100,000 Southwest Army for 14 days. Known as the "Iron Wall", the famous general of the northwest Lidakus, after the first battle in the northwest, the name of Lidakus has spread throughout the southwest. Names such as Iron Wall, Unfalling Light, Defense Master, etc. are also coming one after another.

It is rumored that the northwest general is 2 meters tall, and his body is as strong as a bison, it is said that in a city defense battle in Rwanacre, the city gate is about to be hit by the heavy wooden mine car of the southwest army, it is the northwest famous general who has the strength of one person, with his back against the crumbling city gate, so that the heavy wooden mine car of the southwest army can no longer shake the city gate, it is said that even the former southwest commander fell off the horse angrily, for these rumors that sound simply not human, the deity is only 1.75 meters, weighing less than 120 pounds, Lidakus is a little crying and laughing, and at the same time he became famous in the first battle, he also became the object of ridicule of Hukochili and Stattoenko, the taste of a famous general, it turns out that it is not so good. "Lidakus, I didn't expect you to be so powerful! Are you interested in going to the border to wander around" With a little drunken fat man, a pair of glowing Lidakus looked at the hair, it has been a long time since I saw a falcon in such a state, the last time I saw it, it was still the time when the fat man was the Duke of Samore,

"Subordinate......" Lidarchus was so frightened that he couldn't even finish his words, and the fat man waved his hand and smirked drunkenly.

"Don't worry, it's actually nothing, it's a good taste to be a famous general" The fat man smirked, his eyes were as bright as a light bulb, and Lidakus's heart dropped directly to the freezing point,

"You are now the image spokesperson of my northwest coast, the entire southwest, there are many more people who know you Lidacus than me, a northwest barbarian, I don't know if this is considered to be putting the cart before the horse!"

"Your Majesty, my subordinates really don't have such thoughts!" Lidarchus was completely frightened by the fat man's half-truths, and knelt on the ground, his mind full of words, it was terrible, what he was afraid of was not words, but the fat man's current state

"Damn, your majesty is drunk, none of these bastards even sued me!" Lidarchus even has the heart to die, drunk fat people have always had a habit of claiming not to be human, the most like to get drunk and go crazy, the wine is very poor, the mantra on the lips is "Don't be afraid, I am generally not drunk, the drunk one is not a person!" Under normal circumstances, as long as the fat man sees the fat man after a few glasses of wine, a pair of small bean eyes begin to redden, stupid, pretending to be stupid, basically right,

The fat man turned around a few times at Lidakus, who was trembling like a chicken, and looked at Lidakus's small body, which was unable to reach the 2-meter height he requires.

"I don't know if people can stretch like bread! I heard that there is a kind of tug-of-war, as long as you pull the head and feet at the same time, you can stretch a person, it is said that someone once stretched 30 centimeters, it is estimated that it is about the same" The fat man's eyes were red, and his mouth was full of wine, "Pull-saw! 30 centimeters ......"

Lidarchus has already fainted in fright, well, in fact, he is pretending to be dead, and the best way to meet the Falcon Majesty is to pretend to be dead! This is what the important ministers of the empire have exchanged for their bloody experience, seeing that Lidarchus fainted very spinelessly, the fat man is very sorry to modify the plan,

Since you can't "win by appearance", then simply "take your heart by name", so a name appointed by His Majesty the Falcon fell on the head of Lidarchus: "Lidarchus the City Butcher!"

Lidarchus, who has always been a good man, was thus given the name of a murderous and heinous person who was murderous when he heard it.

The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, sure enough, when I heard that the leader of the Northwest Army on the opposite side was the famous Northwest general "City Butcher" Lidakus, the two cities immediately did not dare to make any more changes (to be continued......
