Chapter 251: The Dead Serve as Scapegoats
After the end of the naval battle in the Wessel Strait, the Hessel Kingdom not only had to bear the wrath of the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire, but also the condemnation of the other six countries of the Nine Nations Military Alliance, which suddenly pushed the Hessel Kingdom to the forefront.
On the morning of August 7, 3016 in the Tang calendar, that is, on the morning of the third day after the end of the naval battle in the Wessel Strait, in the palace of Mangers City, the capital of the Hessel Kingdom, the young king Munika frowned and asked Prime Minister Uriso: "Prime Minister, now the Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire have asked our Hessel Kingdom to compensate for the losses of the two navies, and the other countries such as Yingluopa, Sharad, and Noomi in the Nine Nations Military Alliance are also responsible for the defeat of our Hessel Kingdom. What should we do next in the Kingdom of Hersel? Do you need to punish the commander of the fleet, Marquis Davidok? β
Munika, the king of the Hessel Kingdom, is only sixteen years old this year, and he just succeeded to the throne of the Hessel Kingdom last year.
Originally, in the Hessel Kingdom, the king's rights were still very large, but due to the sudden death of the previous king of the Hessel Kingdom in his prime, the young prince hurriedly inherited the throne, so that now the power of the Hessel Kingdom is almost completely controlled by Prime Minister Uriso.
Prime Minister Urisol then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, what the Marquis of Davidoc has done is the most beneficial to our Hessel Kingdom, according to the battle report of the naval battle in the Wessel Strait, the Gisk Navy has lost seven super dreadnought battleships and nine battle cruisers only as the capital ship, and the Orenza Navy has also lost six super dreadnought battleships and nine battle cruisers, if the fleet led by the Marquis Davidoc continues to fight hard with the Tang Navy, We, the HΓΆssel Navy, will never lose just one super dreadnought, one battlecruiser and two dreadnoughts! β
When the Orenza Navy retreated, there was also a super dreadnought battleship and a battle cruiser that did not successfully withdraw, one of which was a Yong-class super dreadnought battleship with a 356 mm main gun, but because it almost lost power, it was captured by the Datang Royal Navy, in this naval battle, the Datang Royal Navy captured a total of two super dreadnought battleships, and the other was the cold class super dreadnought battleship of the Gisk Navy.
King Munika said with some hesitation: "But for the other eight countries of the Nine Nations Military Alliance, how should our Hessel Kingdom explain it?" β
Prime Minister Urisol said indifferently: "Your Majesty can rest assured, the minister will take care of this matter." β
The reason given by the Kingdom of Hessel for the escape of the Hessel Navy was that Davidok, the commander of the Hessel Naval Fleet, suddenly became unwell after the start of the naval battle and had to temporarily hand over the command of the fleet to Leonidos, the captain of the Super Dreadnought Battleship Sharp.
As for why Leonidos gave the order to retreat, it has become a secret that can never be solved with the sinking of the super dreadnought battleship Sharp, the super dreadnought battleship of the Sharp is the only super dreadnought battleship sunk by the Herssel Navy in the naval battle in the Wessel Strait, and the captain Leonidos also sank into the sea with the battleship.
The Kingdom of Hessel is deeply sorry for the escape of the Hessel Navy, and is also very sorry for the loss of the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy, and the Hessel Kingdom is willing to dispatch all the main forces of its navy to rescue the Gisk Navy and the Orensa Navy trapped in the port of Groning.
On the morning of August 8, 3016 in the Tang calendar, in a large hall of the imperial palace in Cachino City, the capital of the Orensa Empire, Emperor Modest held a telegram in his hand and said angrily to Prime Minister Nikifor: "The Hessel Kingdom actually pushed out a dead man as a scapegoat, do you think that all of us in the Orenza Empire are mentally retarded?" β
Prime Minister Nikifuel hesitated for a moment and persuaded: "Your Majesty, after all, the Hessel Kingdom is one of the nine military alliances, and our Orenza Empire is still counting on the Hessel Kingdom's army to join the battlefield as soon as possible and relieve the pressure on our Orenza Royal Army, so this time for the Hersel Navy's escape, it is best to turn it into a big thing and a small matter, and now resisting the invasion of the Tang Army is the most important thing for our Orenza Empire." β
When Emperor Modest heard this, he couldn't help but sigh, and then crumpled the telegram in his hand and threw it to the ground, "Prime Minister, how is the situation at the front?" β
Prime Minister Nikifore said bitterly: "Your Majesty, the situation on the front line is very bad, as of yesterday afternoon, our Orenza Royal Army has lost more than three million troops, and the most front-line defense line in the border area has been completely abandoned, our troops of the Orenza Royal Army can only rely on some border cities to engage in street battles with the Tang Army, in order to delay the speed of the Tang Army's advance, and now several armored units of the Tang Army have driven straight into the hinterland of our Orenza Empire, The War Department is trying to find a way to mobilize troops and try to block these armored units of the Tang Army. β
Emperor Modest frowned and said, "When will the newly formed fifty infantry divisions be brought to the battlefield?" β
When the Nine Nations Military Alliance declared war on the Tang Empire, the Royal Army of Orenza already had a full hundred infantry divisions, with a total strength of 10 million, but in the face of the overwhelming attack of the Royal Army of the Tang Dynasty and the Royal Air Force of the Tang Dynasty, the Orenza Empire had to urgently use reserve officers and soldiers to prepare for the formation of another fifty infantry divisions.
Prime Minister Nikifore sighed and said: "Your Majesty, twenty of the fifty newly formed infantry divisions have completed the reorganization of personnel and the allocation of weapons, and these twenty infantry divisions that have completed the basic reorganization have been transferred to the front line by the War Department, and the remaining thirty infantry divisions will also be completed in about a month, and they will also be sent to the battlefield at that time." β
Emperor Modest's brows furrowed even tighter, "Although the newly formed infantry division is composed of reserve officers and soldiers, is it okay to pull it into the battlefield in such a hurry?" Doesn't it take a while to train? β
Prime Minister Nikki Fol said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, it stands to reason that these newly formed infantry divisions must undergo a period of training, but the front line is tight, and the War Department has to rush ducks to the shelves. β
Emperor Modest then asked, "Has the intelligence department found out how many troops and fighters the Tang Empire dispatched this time for the invasion of our Orenza Empire?" β
"Back to Your Majesty, the Datang Army has dispatched more than six million people, and the Datang Air Force has dispatched at least thousands of fighters, and it is precisely because the Datang Air Force has completely controlled air supremacy that the resistance of our Orenza Empire has become so difficult."
"Now that the Wessel Strait has been cut off by the Tang Navy, the main force of our Royal Navy of Orenza, together with the main force of the Jisk Navy, is trapped in the port of Groning of the Gisk Empire, and the one and a half million land forces that the Kingdom of Hersel promised to send to the territory of our Orenza Empire will not be counted on in a short period of time, what do the Monia Empire, the Ruierland Empire and the Revelli Kingdom say?"
"Your Majesty, the three countries of Monia, Ruierland, and Revelli have all sent telegrams, and the main naval forces of their three countries are gathering, and after striving to merge with the main force of the Hessel Navy, they will enter the Wessel Strait to rescue the main forces of our Royal Navy of Orenza and the Gisk Navy from the trap, and strive to drive the Datang Navy out of the Wessel Strait, as long as the Wessel Strait is controlled by our side of the Nine Nations Military Alliance, the land forces of the Monia Empire, the Rilland Empire, the Hersel Kingdom and the Revelli Kingdom, It will be possible to continuously reinforce the territory of our Orenza Empire, and even the territory of the Gisk Empire. β
"Alas, I hope that the combined navies of our six countries can defeat the Tang Navy in the Wessel Strait, otherwise it will be difficult for us to resist such a ferocious attack of the Tang Empire with only our Royal Army of Orenza."
In the naval battle in the Wessel Strait, the first team of the Third Fleet of the Tang Royal Navy can be said to have severely damaged the navies of the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire, and together with the Fourth Fleet of the Third Fleet, the main forces of the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy were besieged in the port of Groning of the Gisk Empire.
In addition, the two super dreadnought battleships captured by the First Squadron of the Third Fleet of the Datang Royal Navy also gave Su Yi a Japanese Nagato-class super dreadnought battleship and a Bavaria-class super dreadnought.
In this naval battle, the Datang Royal Navy sank a total of one super dreadnought battleship, four battle cruisers, two light cruisers and two destroyers, and plus the two super dreadnought battleships captured, the Datang Royal Navy is equivalent to four more super dreadnought battleships in the account, even if the current number of capital ships of the Datang Royal Navy is less than the capital ships of the nine countries of the entire Nine Nations Military Alliance, Su Yi believes that the final victory must belong to the Datang Royal Navy.
In the Xiande Hall of the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City, Su Yi smiled and said to Wang Chengliang, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy: "The Royal Navy fought very beautifully this time, and only used the first team under the jurisdiction of the Third Fleet to defeat the main forces of the Jisk Navy and the Orenza Navy. β
Wang Chengliang also said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, the first team of the Third Fleet, but with thirty-six Jingyuan-class super dreadnought battleships and thirty-six Zhiyuan-class battlecruisers, it can be said that it is the strongest team among the seven main fleets of our Royal Navy, and it is normal to be able to defeat the main forces of the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy." β
Su Yi continued: "Now the first and fourth teams of the Third Fleet have trapped the main forces of the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy in Groning Harbor, but the Southern Theater of the Nine Nations Military Alliance is not only the Gisk Empire and the Orensa Empire, I feel that the Monia Navy, the Rilland Navy, the Herssel Navy and the Revelli Navy are likely to form a joint fleet to try to rescue the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy in the Groning Harbor. Therefore, I felt that the Royal Navy should further strengthen its forces in the Wessel Strait. β
Wang Chengliang immediately said: "Your Majesty rest assured, the minister has ordered the Third and Fourth Fleets under the Fourth Fleet, as well as the First Squadron under the Sixth Fleet, to rush to the Wessel Strait and join the First and Fourth Fleets of the Third Fleet. β
The capital ships of the Third Sentai of the Fourth Fleet, which has twelve Brittany-class super dreadnought battleships and seven Tiger-class battlecruisers, and the capital ships of the Fourth Sentai of the Fourth Fleet, which has sixteen Tennessee-class super dreadnought battleships and seven Tiger-class battlecruisers.
The capital ship of the First Sentai of the Sixth Fleet, with twenty-one King-class dreadnought battleships and twenty-four Moltke-class battlecruisers.
Su Yi asked again: "The navies of the Yingluoba Empire, the Sharad Empire, and the Noomi Empire, have there been any recent movements?" β
Wang Chengliang nodded and said: "According to the information obtained by our Royal Navy, the main forces of the Yingluoba Navy, the Sharad Navy and the Noomi Navy are currently converging at a military port in the Sharad Empire, and the First, Second and Seventh Fleets of our Royal Navy have all gathered in Huifeng Port, ready to meet the combined fleet of the three countries' navies at any time. β
Su Yi frowned slightly, "The Yingluoba Navy has one hundred and six super dreadnought battleships, ninety-seven battle cruisers and thirteen dreadnought battleships, the Sharad Navy has eighty-five super dreadnought battleships, eighty-five battle cruisers and ten dreadnought battleships, and the Noomi Navy has eighty-eight super dreadnought battleships, eighty-six battle cruisers and ten dreadnought battleships, can it handle it just with the Royal Navy's First, Second and Seventh Fleets?" β
"Your Majesty, the first and second teams under the jurisdiction of the Fourth Fleet, as well as the second and third teams under the jurisdiction of the Sixth Fleet, are not far from Huifeng Port, if necessary, these four teams can also fight together with the First Fleet, the Second Fleet and the Seventh Fleet, although this is still a little insufficient compared to the combined strength of the three navies of Yingluoba, Sharad and Noomi, but the difference in strength is not so obvious."
Su Yi touched his chin and suddenly said: "It is best to choose the battlefield of the decisive battle with the navies of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi close to the coastline of our Tang Empire, so that those goshawk bombers deployed by the Royal Air Force in the coastal areas can be useful." β
The Goshawk bomber is the Junkers-88 dive bomber, this bomber has a bomb load of 2.5 tons, a range of more than 2,000 kilometers, and can completely launch air strikes against enemy fleets near the sea.
