The results of the naval battle on Shark Island were quickly transmitted back to Silver Light City, where the Governor's Mansion of the Silver Wolf Empire was located.

Silverlight City is the political, economic, cultural, and military center of the Silver Wolf Empire in the New World, and is also regarded as the second capital of the Silver Wolf Empire, and the first capital of the Silver Wolf Empire is the Silver Glory City on the other side of the node in different time and space.

In a conference room in the Governor's Mansion of Silverlight City, Igna, the Governor of the Silver Wolf Empire, asked Yegor, Vice Minister of the Admiralty, in a deep voice, "Admiral, do you have to give me an explanation?"

Fighting against a local navy of the Han and Tang Empires, the royal navy of our Silver Wolf Empire lost 2 all-main gun battleships, 4 all-steel battleships, 5 large armored cruisers, 7 light cruisers and 6 destroyers at once, and tens of thousands of soldiers were bloodied!

If you add the 3 all-steel battleships, 1 light cruiser and 3 destroyers lost in the Battle of Xiangshi Island, the Third Fleet of the Royal Navy has lost at least more than a third of its combat effectiveness!

Could it be that the Royal Navy of our Silver Wolf Empire has decayed to the point where even humans can't defeat it? ”

Since the Minister of the Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire stays in Silver Radiance City on the other side of the node of different time and space all the year round, Yegor, the Vice Minister of the Admiralty, is almost the actual person in charge of the three major fleets of the Silver Wolf Empire's Navy in the New World.

With the peripheral light of his eyes, Yegor glanced at another wolf clan wearing the rank of lieutenant general in the conference room, and then said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency the Governor, it's not that our Royal Navy has become weaker, but that our opponent is unexpectedly strong!"

In the naval battle of Xiangshi Island and the just-concluded naval battle of Shark Island, the local navy of the Han and Tang Empires actually used a large number of battleships with full main guns, as well as a new type of capital ship that can be called a battle cruiser.

For example, in the Battle of Xiangshi Island, the opponent's two capital ships dispatched 14 ships, and in the Battle of Shark Island, the opponent's two capital ships dispatched 25 ships.

This is the reason why the losses of our Royal Navy's Third Fleet are so great. ”

As soon as Yegor's words fell, the lieutenant general of the wolf clan who Yegor swept by with his afterglow just now said with a look of shame: "Your Excellency the Governor, our Military Intelligence Department is to blame for this aspect, because we have not done a good job in intelligence work.

Up to now, it has not been found out where the local family of the Han and Tang Empires got such a large number of all-main gun battleships and battle cruisers. ”

This lieutenant general of the wolf clan is the deputy minister of the Silver Wolf Emperor's **Intelligence Department, the Military Intelligence Department is the largest intelligence agency in the Silver Wolf Empire, independent of the Silver Wolf Empire's navy and army, and directly obeys the royal family of the Silver Wolf Empire.

And Governor Igna is also a member of the royal family of the Silver Wolf Empire, the eldest son of the current emperor of the Silver Wolf Empire, and the first heir to the throne of the Silver Wolf Empire.

"Krisha, haven't you found any clues?" Governor Igna asked with a frown.

Klisha said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency the Governor, at present, the countries that can build all the main gun battleships, except for the six Spirit Race countries, only the Liang Yan Empire can build them.

However, the first all-main gun battleship independently built by the Liang Yan Empire had just been put into service, and it was impossible to build a full-main gun battleship and a battle cruiser for that local family in the Han and Tang Empires.

In addition, the battle cruiser is a new type of capital ship, and among the six spirit countries, only the Golden Lion Empire is under construction, and even our Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire has just begun to plan to build this new type of capital ship. ”

Governor Igna's brow furrowed even tighter, "It's a ghost!"

Could it be that in the New World, there are other nodes in different planes that connect to other civilizations? ”

Krisha hurriedly said: "Our military intelligence department has also had such doubts, and in the area of influence of that local family in the Han and Tang Empires, we have conducted careful investigations, but we have not found anything suspicious.

Those all-main gun battleships and battle cruisers, as if they appeared out of thin air. ”

At this time, Deputy Minister of the Admiralty Yegor followed and said: "Not only the battleships and battlecruisers with all main guns, but also the local family of the Han and Tang Empires also has a number of large armored cruisers and light cruisers of unknown origin.

In fact, the Third Fleet fought quite heroically in the Battle of Shark Island, not a single warship surrendered to the enemy, and many warships that did not break through fought to the last moment.

It's just that this time the opponent of the Third Fleet is really too strong, the Third Fleet only has 6 battleships with full main guns, but the other side has 25 battleships and battlecruisers with all main guns. ”

Governor Igna also did not want to hold some people in the Third Fleet accountable for the Battle of Shark Island.

Hearing that Admiralty Deputy Minister Yegor continued to excuse the Third Fleet, Governor Igna said in a deep voice: "For the naval battle of Shark Island, your Admiralty and the Third Fleet must write a detailed summary report.

If we lose a battle, we can't blame the opponent for being too strong, and we have to find some reasons in ourselves. ”

"His Excellency the Governor is so right, our Royal Navy will definitely sum up the experience and lessons of the naval battle of Shark Island this time."

Hearing that Governor Igna did not seem to be ready to hold the navy responsible, Yegor couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Igna is not only the governor of the Silver Wolf Empire in the New World, but also the first heir to the throne.

If there is no accident, Igna, who has great prestige in the army, will definitely be the next emperor of the Silver Wolf Empire.

If Igna wants to hold him accountable for the defeat in the Battle of Shark Island, even Yegor, the Vice-Minister of the Admiralty, will have to bear a lot of responsibility.

Governor Igna then turned to the other wolf general in the conference room and asked, "Luka, what about the Fourteenth Army?"

Could it be that the Fourteenth Army could not even take a small island? ”

This wolf clan admiral is Luca, the deputy minister of the War Department of the Silver Wolf Empire, and the same as Yegor, the vice minister of the Admiralty, because the Minister of War of the Silver Wolf Empire stays in Silver Radiance City on the other side of the node in different time and space all the year round, so Luka is almost the actual head of the millions of land forces of the Silver Wolf Empire in the new world.

Luca said helplessly: "The local family of the Han and Tang Empire has tens of thousands of elite troops on Xiangshi Island, coupled with the occupation of favorable terrain, so that the 14th Army has not made any progress in the onslaught for several days, and it has suffered great losses.

His Excellency the Governor must have been well aware of the character of Bullitt, the commander of the Fourteenth Army, and would never have asked for help from the War Department if it had not been for great difficulties, with Bullitt's temper. ”

Governor Igna then asked in a deep voice, "What are the new plans of the War Department?" ”

"If the Royal Navy is determined to capture Xiangshi Island, then it is better to send another army group to Xiangshi Island.

With the strength of the two group armies, it should be enough to wipe out the tens of thousands of elites of the Han and Tang Empire's local families arranged on Xiangshi Island. ”

The group army of the Royal Army of the Silver Wolf Empire has 4 infantry divisions, 1 baggage brigade, 2 heavy artillery regiments, and 1 guard regiment, with a total strength of about 80,000 people.

At present, the Royal Army of the Silver Wolf Empire has a total of 24 army groups, half of which are stationed on the Spirit World side and half on the New World side.

The officers and men of these 24 group armies are all composed of wolf people.

In addition to these 24 army groups, the Royal Army of the Silver Wolf Empire also has 60 independent divisions dominated by dog people.

Each independent division has a strength of about 15,000 men, and the same half is stationed in the Spirit World and half in the New World.

In addition, the Silver Wolf Empire also has more than 1 million security forces in the New World, with werewolves and dogs as officers and humans as soldiers.

Governor Igna pondered for a moment, then suddenly sighed and said, "On the other side of the Spirit Clan, our Silver Wolf Empire and the Flying Leopard Empire are likely to break out into a war this time.

At that time, the new world side will have to fight if it doesn't work, and the governor's palace will have to transfer troops to support the spirit world.

Now the First Fleet has dispatched 10 battleships with full main guns, 10 battleships with all steel, 12 large armored cruisers, 24 light cruisers, and 24 destroyers, and returned to the Spirit World through the third time-space node.

At this time, the preparation for the Flying Leopard Empire could not be affected in order to seize an island with an area of less than 2,000 square kilometers. ”

The Silver Wolf Empire's No. 3 alternate space-time node connecting the two worlds has artificial canals leading directly to the sea on both sides, allowing the warships of the Silver Wolf Empire to shuttle freely between the two worlds.

Vice Minister of the Admiralty Yegor, when he heard that Governor Igna intended to stop on the side of the Han and Tang Empires, immediately agreed and said: "I also think that the preparation for the Flying Leopard Empire now is the most important thing.

The local family of the Han and Tang Empires can wait for the matter with the Flying Leopard Empire to settle down before cleaning up.

With the strength of the six fleets of the Royal Navy, as long as they are well prepared before the war, even if the local family of the Han and Tang Empires has some battleships and battlecruisers with all main guns, they will not be able to escape the end of annihilation. ”

The reason why Yegor said the six major fleets of the Royal Navy is because on the side of the Spirit World, the Silver Wolf Empire also has three main fleets, namely the Wolf Tooth Fleet, the Blood Wolf Fleet, and the Blue Wolf Fleet.

These three fleets have a history of nearly a thousand years in the Silver Wolf Empire, and their strength is also higher than that of the First, Second, and Third Fleets on the New World side.

The navies of the other five beast countries, like the navy of the Silver Wolf Empire, have ancient fleet names on the other side of the Spirit World, while the fleets on the New World side are all formed later, and the names of the fleets are named after numbers.

Luca, the deputy minister of the War Department, immediately said: "I also agree with the temporary truce with that local family of the Han and Tang Empires.

However, in terms of armistice conditions, the dignity of our Silver Wolf Empire must be maintained! ”

Governor Igna nodded, "Maintaining the dignity of the empire is a must!"

There are some things that may be resolved at the negotiating table if they cannot be resolved through war, especially if the object of negotiation is human beings. ”
