Chapter 67: Reinforcements Arrive
Chapter 67: Reinforcements Arrive
The army pressed the realm, and countless giant ships floated in the air, black and heavy, and the black and thick ones were aimed at the snow-white shell of New Ostia. Everything is ready, just an order from the commander, and the day of the city's destruction is just around the corner.
"Damn, haven't reinforcements arrived yet?"
The sweaty governor of New Ostia roared loudly at his men, his face twisted and unbelievably frightened or angry.
"Your Excellency, I've already asked the Senate for help, but now that the smoke is everywhere, where are there any reinforcements! Even the Senate is putting out fires everywhere! ”
The subordinates are also full of bitterness, who doesn't know the far-fetched explanation, and who doesn't know the market today. It's just that the Governor is not willing to accept this reality!
"Is there really no way out for me?"
With a lament, the Governor collapsed in his chair, and he lost even the spirit to conduct official business.
When he opened his mouth, his subordinates couldn't find any words of comfort. With a small city-state like a rival to the Helles Empire, it is a miracle that only comes from fairy tales.
The gap between Liliang is huge, and once the war starts, this side will only be defeated, unless there can be some hero-level master to support the scene. It's a pity that those people in the Red Wings have already broken their hearts, and they were not lightly injured in the big battle that year, not to mention that there are many more enemy troops in other places than here, even if someone helps, it will not be their turn here!
The governor who can be sent by the Senate to govern a city-state is naturally not a fool, and now is the time to consider a way out.
It is still possible for others to accept the surrender of the Empire, and a guy from the Senate like himself should not think about it. There are so many things that know that not only will the empire not accept his begging, but the people in the Senate will not let him go if they know about it.
Fight to the death?
This thought never came to the minds of the elites, who thought that they had enough wealth and power to lose their lives for a city-state.
The Governor propped his chin on his hands and began to plan for his future. Those men did not dare to stand by and wait for the decision of fate, and if the governor made any irrational decision, then they could only do it for their own future......
If you run away now, the Senate won't be able to say it! The thought of escaping immediately disappeared from the governor's mind, for the lord of a city like them, it was okay to escape, but at least it had to be after resistance, otherwise how could they explain it to the above.
But after the war, the people of the empire will not let him go so easily.
Teleportation array?
I'm sorry, but do you think that a nation's army doesn't even have the ability to block a city-state's teleportation? If you really think so, those enemy troops on the other side won't laugh to death!
"Come here!"
"Immediately contact the Supreme Commander over there, and say that I am willing to exchange 30 million gold coins for his compromise for a day! You tell him that the outcome of this battle is well known, and that victory is firmly in your hands, so we will not ask for any resistance. It's just that at least the dignity of my family must be preserved, and it is impossible to surrender directly! As long as the other party is willing, I promise ...... in the name of the family."
After thinking about it for a while, the governor still couldn't think of any other way for him to survive without losing face at this time, so he had to send someone to talk.
Of course, this kind of joint discussion must have taken place in private. It's been in the same shijie for so many years, whether it's the union or the upper echelons of the empire, there will always be so few, not to mention acquaintance, at least everyone is familiar with it.
They are all aristocrats, presumably the other party is still willing to give themselves such a little face!
The Governor prayed for the family's blessing, hoping that for the sake of the family, the other party would not refuse this small request. In the Governor's opinion, as long as you decorate yourself, you can accept a city-state completely, and this kind of credit must not be rejected by any nobleman!
"It's been a whole hour, and the speed of the army is really slow! Is this worthy of stopping the elite Imperial Army? ”
The Emperor on the flagship was impatient to walk back and forth, although he also knew that it was not too bad for such an army to assemble and set off so quickly, but the Emperor Governor was still very dissatisfied.
However, it doesn't matter how dissatisfied the Imperial Governor is, the Imperial Army doesn't care. Next, the activation of the magic array still needs to be personally commanded by the emperor, and naturally the emperor can't just leave, so he has to hold back his anxiety and wait patiently for time to pass.
Fortunately, the army that the Emperor was in was one of the few large fleets in the Empire, and once the ship was lifted, it set off much faster. It wasn't long before the city-state of New Ostia came into the sights of the Governor.
"Report to your lordship, our army is about to enter the attack range, are you preparing to attack the city!"
A signal soldier turned his head and asked for instructions, and the signal soldier, who was the flagship, sent a lot of messages almost all the time. Ordinary matters can be handed over to the adjutant, but this matter does not have to be done by the commander-in-chief.
"Command the whole army to stop advancing and stay out of range of the enemy's magic cannons. Send someone to contact the governor of the city-state here, surrender or war! ”
Waving his fists, the commander-in-chief, who is also the captain of the ship, gave orders in high spirits, and even the communication soldiers and adjutants who have been together for so many years did not realize that the current commander-in-chief was no longer the same person he once was.
Doge's Palace
"What? Let me surrender? Are you kidding! Is he crazy? What about the people we sent!! ”
The Führer's roar resounded again through the governor's palace, and all the maids and subordinates stood aside in trepidation, allowing the governor to spit at him, all pretending to be ostriches silently enduring the sound of piercing the clouds and cracking stones.
"A bunch of rubbish! Get out of here! ”
Trembling fingers pointed out the door, under the watchful eye of the governor, the subordinates who boasted of their ability to make decisions slipped faster than rabbits one by one, but no one came out to solve their problems.
"Alas! Is it really heaven that wants to kill me? Bastards on the Empire's side! Why don't you give me a way to live, everyone is a nobleman for hundreds of years, look up and don't look down, can you kill them all? ”
The Governor rubbed his face in despair and sighed.
Whoever is in this position will understand that the governor is not so easy to be! On weekdays, it's good to say that he can be powerful, but once he enters the war, it's not something that a peacetime governor like him can handle, but the United Headquarters is unwilling to send troops over to die.
Do you really have to rely on the vigilant regiment in the city to fight against an elite naval division?
If he really dares to give such an order, the people of the garrison regiment will definitely take the first step to tie him up and send him to ask for credit!
"Weishenme is not attacking yet?"
Finally got to New Ostia, but the army stopped, which was really angry that the emperor and the first Buddha ascended to heaven and the second Buddha was born. Although the emperor knows whether the squad fights or fights alone, this kind of army is still a chick, especially this kind of military air fleet that is still seen for the first time.
"This is the rule, that is, to give the other party a chance to surrender, but also to give yourself a time to prepare for Zuihou. Besides, our naval guns also need time to recharge! This time is to give the whole army a charged shijie, and the first wave of shooting is the most powerful! Once the battle begins, there's no time to be so slow and ready to recharge! If you have seen the war, you will find that once the battle begins, the salvo of the fleet is not so neat! ”
In order not to be seen, and since he did not know how to command the army to fight, the emperor only changed part of the commander-in-chief's consciousness and made him subconsciously obey him. This allows him to retain his original command ability and is not easy to be seen through, but the downside is that sometimes they will act in the way they think is most hode.
"How long will it take?"
Leaning against the metal wall, the Emperor crossed his shoulders and asked with a frowning and some impatience.
"Of course, when we run out of charges, it's when! hahahaha! ”
The commander-in-chief laughed sinisterly, the real is the art of commanding! Wave or something, but even the students will spurn the battle!
Although the emperor did not understand the way the fleet fought, he still had a little understanding of the performance of these fleets themselves.
Generally, small naval guns take 3~10 seconds to charge and prepare, while large naval guns usually take 10~30 seconds, and heavy guns on heavy flagships even need a full few minutes to dozens of minutes to prepare!
In other words, the longest time that the emperor needs to wait for is only more than half a year.
I still have this patience!
The Emperor, who had comforted himself in this way, closed his eyes again, silently counting his heartbeats and waiting for the destruction to begin.
"Your Excellency the Governor, if you don't declare a defense, the enemy will start attacking!"
The subordinate standing outside the door was so irritable that he almost pushed open the door and asked for instructions, but he endured it. It can be seen that the Governor's mood at this time is probably not very good, but after more than ten minutes, he did not hear any movement inside, and the adjutant, who could not bear it, finally forcibly kicked open the door of the Governor's office.
"It's late! It's already too late! By the time the enemy arrives and no reinforcements appear, Novoustia is already doomed! ”
After decadence, disappointment, pain, and despair, the Governor finally saw it! I have eaten the most haode things in my life, played with the most haode women, worn the most haode clothes, and held the right to be the lord of a city, even if I die, what is there to regret!
"Boom, boom!"
The ground shook, the deafening sound of artillery fire shook the entire governor's palace three times, and the adjutant, who was unsteady on his feet, fell to the ground. The Governor sat silently in his chair, arranging his clothes, waiting for death, which he had seen.
"Announced! Adjutant, I appoint you as my next successor! You're still young, get out of here! When the Governor's Palace is in vain, announce the order to surrender in my place! With a mere garrison, it is impossible to hold out until the arrival of the combined army! ”
"Your Excellency! How can this work, the lower official will take you with me! ”
The adjutant shouted sadly, gritting his teeth and refusing to leave. However, this is not because this governor is very popular, but once the next order of the governor surrenders, this crime will implicate the family behind him!
This damn old thing actually wants Lao Tzu to bear this responsibility! The adjutant scolded in his heart, but he had to pretend to be loyal on the surface!
"Obey the covenant and obey my commands. Come on! Destroy the titans, the lightning that burns brightly. Hundreds of weights, thousands of weights, continuous and staggered. Mercedes Benz! Thunder! "A Thousand Thunders"
Thousands of thunderbolts descended from the sky and converged into a thick and terrifying dragon that split a battleship at the front of the fleet in half!
Dressed in a white robe and carrying the terrifying momentum of crashing a battleship with one blow, a miracle has struck!
