On December 30, 3011 in the Tang calendar, in the waters near the Xiguan Islands of the Purple Moon Empire, the fleets of the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza converged, and they had been cruising here for several days.

On the bridge of the Ares of War, the flagship of the Second Expeditionary Fleet of the Sharad Navy, the commander of the Second Expeditionary Fleet of the Sharad Navy Denis said in a deep voice to Gorjey, the Vice-Admiralty of the Gisk Empire, and Mihailo, the Admiralty of the Orenza Empire: "It seems that the baron is not ready to send his fleet to meet the fleet of the Yingroba Empire transporting weapons and ammunition. ”

Now, the combined fleet of the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza has discovered the traces of the British Empire transport fleet, and used the war zone as an excuse to prevent the British Empire transport fleet from continuing to approach the west coast of the Purple Moon Empire.

Gyrjey, the vice-minister of the Admiralty of the Gisk Empire, then asked, "General Denis, then what do you suggest?" ”

Janis pondered for a moment and said, "I think that with the strength of the combined fleet of our three navies, we can completely attack the door and completely destroy that baron fleet!" ”

Mihailo, the Minister of the Navy of the Orenza Empire, nodded at this time and said: "I think it is okay, the combined navies of our three countries have nine super dreadnought battleships, forty-four dreadnought battleships, thirty-eight former dreadnought battleships, fifty-eight ironclad battleships, and hundreds of other types of warships, such strength is enough to eat the fleet under Su Yi's command!" ”

Gyrgey, the deputy minister of the Admiralty of the Jisk Empire, thought about it for a while, and also agreed: "The fleet under Su Yi is now cowering in the port of Ambo of the Purple Moon Empire, if the combined fleet of our three navies arrives outside the port of Ambo, Su Yi must let his fleet come out to meet the battle, otherwise just relying on the shore defense artillery of the port of Ambo is not enough to block the combined fleet of our three navies, if the fleet under Su Yi does not dare to come out, the combined fleet of our three navies can completely use large-caliber naval guns to destroy his fleet in the port." ”

When Dennis heard that the commanders of the other two navies agreed with his plan, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Then let's set a new record in the history of the world's navies!" ”

It is foreseeable that this naval battle between the combined fleets of the three navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza and the independent fleet under Su Yi will be the largest naval battle in the history of mankind in this world.

In order to continue to stop the transport fleet of the Yingroba Empire and approach the west coast of the Purple Moon Empire, the Second Expeditionary Fleet of the Sharad Navy left four dreadnought battleships, four former dreadnought battleships, four large armored cruisers, four medium armored cruisers, four light cruisers, and eight destroyers to form a detachment and continue to cruise in the waters near the Xiguan Islands of the Purple Moon Empire.

The main force of the Second Expeditionary Fleet of the Sharad Navy, together with the navies of Gisk and Orenza, immediately went straight to the port of Ambo, where the independent fleet was located.

When the combined naval fleets of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza rushed to the port of Ambo, there was a large fleet of ships in the northwest of the Xiguan Islands of the Purple Moon Empire, about sixty nautical miles, and this fleet was the transport fleet of the Yingluoba Empire that transported the weapons and ammunition for the Purple Moon Empire.

In this transport fleet of the British Ropa Empire, in addition to more than forty transport ships, there are more than a dozen warships of the Royal Navy of the British Ropa Empire, the largest of which is the large armored cruiser Boxer of the Royal Navy of the British Roba Empire.

The Boxer is the latest class of large armored cruisers in the Royal Navy of the British Ropa Empire, armed with eight 203 mm guns, with a full load displacement of 13,200 tons and a top speed of 24 knots.

On the afternoon of December 30, in the bridge of the Boxer, First Officer Roman said to Captain Samsun: "Destroyer No. 177 sent back a telegram and found that the main forces of the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza had left the vicinity of the Xiguan Islands, and at this time in the vicinity of the Xiguan Islands, only more than 20 warships of the Sharad Navy remained, but among them were four dreadnought battleships and four former dreadnought battleships. ”

Captain Samsun shook his head and said: "Our mission this time is only to escort more than forty transport ships, and the Admiralty strictly orders us not to allow friction with the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza, otherwise we will not only send a dozen of our warships, even if the Sharad Navy is near the Xiguan Islands and only leaves one torpedo boat, we will not move forward." ”

First mate Roman then said: "I feel that the main forces of the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza are likely to rush to the Purple Moon Empire's Ambo Harbor to find the Baron's fleet of the Liuyun Empire for a decisive battle. ”

Captain Samson nodded and said: "The navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza blocked our transport fleet here in order to lure the baronial fleet of the Liuyun Empire over, and now that the baronial fleet is not fooled, the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza should have hit the door." ”

First mate Roman hesitated for a moment and asked: "Captain, don't you need to inform the Purple Moon Empire of the situation near the Xiguan Islands, the navy of the Purple Moon Empire still has a good strength, if the navy of the Purple Moon Empire can defeat the detachment left by the Sharad Navy near the Xiguan Islands, then we can transport this batch of weapons and ammunition to the Purple Moon Empire's Starfish Harbor." ”

Captain Samsun shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then send a telegram to the Purple Moon Empire, hoping that the Purple Moon Empire's navy will have the courage to come to the Xiguan Islands." ”

Liu Yongcheng, the Minister of the Navy of the Purple Moon Empire in Starfish Harbor, immediately summoned the four commanders of the four fleets of the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire to discuss whether the main force of the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire would attack the Xiguan Islands.

Huang Tai'an, commander of the First Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire, immediately suggested to Liu Yongcheng: "My lord, although the main forces of the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza have left the Xiguan Islands, but the Shalad Navy still has more than 20 warships left, not to mention that there are four dreadnought battleships and four former dreadnought battleships, so I suggest that our Royal Navy's four fleets continue to stay in Starfish Harbor to wait and see, and first take a look at the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza and the fleet under Su Yi. Let's talk about the final outcome of the game. ”

Zhou Quan, the commander of the Second Fleet, then said to Liu Yongcheng: "My lord, our four fleets are now combined, there are only four dreadnought battleships, seven former dreadnought battleships, eleven ironclad battleships, eight armored cruisers, twenty-one light cruisers, twenty-seven destroyers and forty-seven torpedo boats, even if we can defeat the detachment left by the Shalad Navy in the Xiguan Islands, our entire Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire will inevitably suffer another heavy loss, for a batch of weapons and equipment of the army, Is it worth it for our Navy to pay such a big price? ”

The navy and army of the Purple Moon Empire have always been full of contradictions because of the issue of military spending, and the words of Zhou Quan, the commander of the Second Fleet, made Liu Yongcheng, who was originally inclined to attack, hesitate a little in his heart, "But how can Her Majesty explain it?" ”

At this time, Liu Ying, commander of the Third Fleet, said: "My lord, anyway, the transport fleet of the Yingroba Empire only has a one-line contact with our Royal Navy, and we can prevent Her Majesty from knowing the content of this telegram from the Yingroba Empire's transport fleet. ”

The commander of the Fourth Fleet, Gu En, immediately said: "This is a good idea, even if Her Majesty the Empress learns of this matter in the future, we can find some reasons to shirk the responsibility, for example, it can be said that the telegraph operator copied the content wrongly, so that we think that the Sharad Navy left fourteen dreadnought battleships near the Xiguan Islands." ”

In the end, under the persuasion of the four commanders of the four fleets of the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire, Liu Yongcheng, the Minister of the Navy of the Purple Moon Empire, tore up the telegram in his hand, but Liu Yongcheng hesitated for a long time, and still sent a telegram to Su Yi, telling Su Yi that the main forces of the navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza had left the Xiguan Islands and was likely to go to Ambo Port.
