After losing the three forts on the highest peak of Pusha Island and the beach north of Pusha Island, the Third Marine Division of the Silver Wolf Empire and the Coastal Defense Brigade of Pusha Island still relied on the fortifications on Pusha Island to stubbornly resist the Zhenwei Army, bringing a lot of losses to the Zhenwei Army.

It's a pity that the five batteries in the port of Pusha Island, because of their location, the shore defense guns inside can only fire at the sea, but they can't provide fire support to the Silver Wolf Emperor's ** team on the island.

As a result, in the face of the Zhenwei Army, which had the advantage of firepower and strength, the space that the Silver Wolf Emperor ** team could operate was constantly compressed.

By the evening of February 2, 1539, only the harbor area was left on the entire Pusha Island, which was still in the hands of the Silver Wolf Emperor's ** team.

In a fort in the port, the commander of the Third Marine Division of the Silver Wolf Empire, Rofer, asked the deputy division commander Inar in a hoarse voice, "Is the count out?" How many of us are left? ”

"Division commander, there are about 3,400 people left in our Third Marine Combat who can still fight, and there are more than 1,900 people on the Lisha Island Coastal Defense Brigade, but the rest of the Pusha Island Coastal Defense Brigade is basically artillery stationed in the battery."

"At this time, those five batteries are no longer useful, and the artillery of the coastal defense brigade on Pusha Island will be immediately incorporated into the combat unit, and now is the time for them to be loyal to the empire!"

Inar said with some gloom: "The Governor's Mansion has not sent an expeditionary force so far, and it seems that there is no way for us to leave Pusha Island alive." ”

Rofer patted Deputy Division Commander Inar on the shoulder, "Even if the Governor's Mansion sends an expeditionary force at this time, it will be too late, but our sacrifice, the Empire will remember." ”

Two days later, Igna, the governor of the Silver Wolf Empire, received a farewell telegram from Rofer, commander of the 3rd Marine Division.

Governor Igna gently put the telegram in his hand on his desk, sighed and said to Admiralty Vice-Chancellor Yegor: "Posthumously recognize Rofehr as Vice Admiral of the Imperial Royal Navy, he is a hero of the Empire. ”

Yegor hesitated for a moment and asked, "Governor, now that Pusha Island has been lost, does the expeditionary force still need to be formed?" ”

"Now it depends on what the attitude of the Golden Lion Empire and the Red Tiger Empire is, if the two countries are unwilling to intervene, then our Silver Wolf Empire can only seek revenge on the Three Towns Jiedu Mansion of the Han and Tang Empires in the future."

In a palace in the Imperial Palace in Dawning City, the capital of the Red Tiger Empire, the Emperor of the Red Tiger Empire, Gruyan, asked the Admiral Svia in a deep voice, "What is the opinion of the Royal Navy on joining the war?" ”

Dawning City is not in the world where Zhou Rui is, but in the beast world on the other side of the node in different time and space.

The Admiralty Svia then said aloud: "Your Majesty, our Royal Navy thinks we should go to war.

The Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires in the New World has actually threatened the Fifth Fleet of our Royal Navy on Fengsha Island and the Sixth Fleet on Yumen Island, and even threatened the interests of our Red Tiger Empire along the entire coast of the Han and Tang Empires.

It is better to take this opportunity to unite with the navy of the Silver Wolf Empire and work together to wipe out this human fleet. ”

Emperor Gruyan nodded slightly, "I actually have the intention of getting rid of the human fleet of the Han and Tang Empires, but the Golden Lion Empire doesn't seem to have much interest in intervening in this war.

The reason why our Red Tiger Empire was willing to lease Gaoluo Island to the Golden Lion Empire was not only that we hoped to form an ally with the Golden Lion Empire in a military alliance, but also hoped to use the navy of the Golden Lion Empire to limit the human fleet of the Han and Tang Empires.

According to the latest intelligence, the human fleet of the Han and Tang Empires has at least 70 to 80 battleships and battle cruisers with full main guns, and if there is no participation of the navy of the Golden Lion Empire, even if it joins forces with the navy of the Silver Wolf Empire, the Royal Navy of the Empire will be broken. ”

"Your Majesty, I have a suggestion."

"What advice?"

"Your Majesty, the Han and Tang Empires are vast and rich, and all spirit countries have always coveted the Han and Tang Empires, why not take this opportunity to discuss with the Golden Lion Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire, if you divide Fengwu Town, Zhenwei Town and Jinnan Town of the Han and Tang Empires."

Zhou Rui saw that the expeditionary force of the Silver Wolf Empire was slow to set off, and the Silver Wolf Empire's most important stronghold on the western coast of the Han and Tang Empires, Pusha Island, was captured by the Zhenwei army.

In addition, the Fifth Fleet and the Sixth Fleet of the Red Tiger Imperial Navy, as well as the Eighth Fleet of the Golden Lion Imperial Navy, after seeing the true scale of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet, have been shrinking into their respective bases, looking like they are standing by and watching.

made Zhou Rui's mood feel very comfortable, in Zhou Rui's opinion, the Silver Wolf Empire may soon admit it.

However, Zhou Rui's good mood did not last long, and he was poured a basin of cold water by a message obtained by the "ghost".

"Fox One, is this news accurate?" Zhou Rui asked in a deep voice.

Fox Yi said with a solemn face: "Great Shuai, this is the news obtained by the Intelligence Department of the Silver Wolf Column, which has been confirmed from many aspects, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Golden Lion Empire, and the Red Tiger Empire have reached an agreement to divide up our Three Towns Jiedu Mansion.

According to this partition agreement, Jinnan Town was returned to the Silver Wolf Empire, Fengwu Town was returned to the Golden Lion Empire, and Zhenwei Town was returned to the Red Tiger Empire. ”

After a pause, Fox Yi continued: "The situation of the Golden Lion Empire and the Red Tiger Empire is still unclear, but the size of the expeditionary force of the Silver Wolf Empire has basically been determined.

The naval component consisted of 14 battleships with full main guns, 16 battleships with all-steel, 20 large armored cruisers, 30 light cruisers and 30 destroyers.

The army component includes 5 army groups and 10 independent divisions dominated by dog people, with a total strength of 550,000. ”

Hearing that the Silver Wolf Empire, the Golden Lion Empire, and the Red Tiger Empire had reached an agreement to divide the three feudal towns under his command, Zhou Rui couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

In addition to the strong pressure brought by the three beast countries, what made Zhou Rui even more panicked was the loss of control over the future.

You must know that after Zhou Rui's rebirth, there are two biggest capitals, one is the lottery system, and the second is the memory of more than ten years in the future.

In the previous life, in 1542, that is, three years later, the Red Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire would join forces to invade the western coastal areas of the Han and Tang Empires.

However, due to his changes to the world, it seems that many things will not happen again according to the trajectory of the previous life.

Zhou Rui was silent for a moment before saying to Hu Yi: "Immediately find a way to find out the situation of the formation of an expeditionary force by the Golden Lion Empire and the Red Tiger Empire, and then temporarily block this news so as not to cause panic in the three feudal towns." ”

Hu Yi hesitated for a moment and said: "Great Shuai, with the strength of our three feudal towns, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist the alliance of the three beast countries, do you want to find a way to talk to the three beast countries?" ”

Zhou Rui shook his head slightly, "I know those beast countries too well, if we can't hurt the three beast countries, we have no room to bargain in front of their three beast countries." ”

Then Zhou Rui's gaze suddenly became firm, "In the face of a powerful enemy, fear can't solve the problem."

Although the three beast countries are indeed very powerful when they join forces, our Three Towns Jiedu Mansion is not a soft persimmon.

No matter what the outcome of this war is, we also have to let those orcs see the backbone of our Han and Tang people! ”
