The island of Ireland is covered in verdant greenery, so people are used to calling it the "Emerald Island".

It is 475 kilometers long from north to south, 275 kilometers wide from east to west, the terrain is high in the north and south and low in the middle, surrounded by mountains, covered by dense forests, the central depression part of the green space is all over the wilderness, the rivers on the island are criss-crossed, and the lakes are as many as the stars.

It is a picturesque Emerald Isle.

There are now three million Celts living on this island, which is considered to be very prosperous, and Yang Xi did not intend to disturb their lives, but since Quart is on the wrong team, Yang Xi has no choice but to wipe them out on the island.

Dublin, Quarter Palace, is as quiet and peaceful as ever.

The Celts were an ancient fighting people who resisted the mighty Romans and survived tenaciously under their iron hooves. Quart showed them that there was more to life than war, but also to pray quietly.

Quart sat on the throne of Yuan, and in fact he was king here.

"Meta! The bishops of Dunluce, Trim, Carrickfergus, Lip, and Ennisskilling have each returned to their thrones according to your orders, and this year's bishops have been arranged according to your instructions, and the Pope has not intervened, and he has completely surrendered power. ”

Boasting his head, pleased with the bishop's report.

"That's right, there have been three popes who have disappeared mysteriously, and this one should understand the reason, in our country of Quart, there will be no more popes meddling in political affairs in the future. Also, the next Pope of Dublin Church should be appointed by me, and you should convey my intentions! ”

"Yes! Dear Meta! ”

Just after a religious administration official returned, another official from the Ministry of Economy came in and reported to Quart on the state of peat mining and processing this year.

Originally, Ireland was known as the "peat kingdom" for its abundant peat reserves, and the Dublin Irish word means "black pond". The east coast of the island of Ireland is rich in peat, and the waters of the mouth of the Riffey River are blackened by the black waters of the River Liffey.

Peat is a valuable natural resource with a wide range of uses. It can not only be used as a variety of fertilizers and feed fillers in agriculture, but also widely used in construction, chemical industry, etc., manufacturing various building materials, extracting dozens of chemical products and semi-finished products. As a fuel with special properties, it is a kind of storage energy, and has many uses in environmental protection and medical and health undertakings.

Quart mined peat from what the Celts considered barren land and exported it to many countries such as Jenny, Zoff, the Roman Empire, and the Midor Kingdom, and exchanged countless benefits from these countries, which allowed the Republic of Quart to stand in troubled times with a population of five million.

That's probably what Quart's daily work is, day after day.

This morning, it's time for lunch. Quart's life was very peculiar, he was not married, but he had more than a dozen children. For beauties, he did not refuse, but he did not make the ancient emperor's move of a group of beauties in three palaces and six courts.

After all, he has a civilized soul.

Dublin evenings are charming, when the sky is blue and yellow, and the sun shines on the sea.

Vessel 6 in the port continued to return to the sea.

Lu Dazhi was not worried that the enemy army would slip through the net, because he had already learned that the country of Dublin had no electricity. There was no electricity, and neither warships nor merchant ships could stop overseas at night, and had to return to port.

Before dark, after all the ships returned to the port, it was the time of the general attack, and it was time to catch turtles in the urn.

In February, it was always early in the night, and at eight o'clock, the crew and the ship's strength returned to the harbor after a tired day. After the ship was parked, almost all of them returned to their homes, and if it was people from other cities, some of them went to the tavern in groups, and some of them looked for their familiar girls nearby, and vented the sea breeze for a day.

Thirty kilometers outside Dublin Port, Lu Dazhi sat nervously on the console, and the news of the walkie-talkie from all parties came.

"Report! The first column frigate No. 1 entered the designated position, and the indicators of the frigate were operating normally, waiting for instructions! ”

"Report! The first column frigate No. 2 entered the designated position, and the indicators of the frigate were operating normally, waiting for instructions! ”

After the report was completed, Lu Dazhi took a deep breath and said to the captain next to him: "Order, sail forward at 9:40, attack at about 10 o'clock, and wait for my command ship to give instructions!" ”

"Yes! Commander! ”

On a night without electricity, it was already late at 9:40, and I was basically either asleep or drunk.

At ten o'clock, only a few torches and night watchmen remained in Dublin Harbour, and dozens of large ships and hundreds of small boats were moored in the harbor. These were manpower ships and sailing ships, and although there were turrets and a few warships, they did not have a long range and were very ancient.

With Lu Dazhi's order, the entire Dublin Harbor and even Dublin City were blown apart by artillery fire.

Nearby residents were awakened by the sound of artillery fire, and some ran out of their houses to see the distant Dublin Harbour being spit out by fire snakes, but Dublin Harbour itself was on fire and did not resist.

Some people who know know that this is war, but the vast majority of people have never seen real war.

At 10:20 a.m., Dublin Harbor was baptized under fire for twenty minutes, and there was nothing left in the fire, whether it was merchant ships or warships.

The destructive power caused by the 25 warships of the first column is no longer able to be resisted by any country's maritime forces.

Even today, there are three other ports that have been eliminated at the same time, one is the port of Watford in the south, and then there are Dundalk and Bangor in the north.

The island of Ireland became a shipless island overnight, and Lu Dazhi had already ordered the four columns to patrol the coastline, and no ships were allowed to leave the island.

Poor Quarter had been busy all day, and in the middle of the night someone came to report that Dublin Harbour had been attacked and had been destroyed.

Quart was startled, didn't know what to do, turned over and got up, and left the sleepy girl next to him.

Quart took his military uniform and asked the Minister of Defense next to him as he walked quickly.

"How many people are coming?"

"I don't know yet."

"How many boats?"

"I don't know yet."

"I don't know anything, what are you the Minister of Defense for?"

"Yuan, please forgive me for my rudeness, the enemy's artillery fire fell from the sky in the middle of the night, the range was extremely long, only twenty minutes, our port had fallen, all the warships were on fire and sank, our soldiers, even the enemy could not be seen."

Quart stopped, a cold sweat breaking out.

"Do you say it's Chenhe's plan to attack the west?"

"Sound from east to west? No, how could it be possible that the Chenhe country was so far away from our country? ”

"You don't know, this Chenhe is very powerful."

Quart recalls the time when the volunteers were in a training camp, when there were only more than 1,000 volunteers left from all over the world, and he remembered this Chenhe. This person usually talks little, but any project is a one-time pass, the completion is excellent, and there is never a shortcoming.

In particular, in the military strategy project, there are thousands of volunteers, and its score ranks first.

Thinking of this, Quart didn't care whether the Secretary of State for Defense understood it or not, and turned around and walked in the other direction.

"Follow me and go directly to the barracks outside the city."

"Meta! Didn't you go to the port to check? ”

"Not going! Chenhe made a move, and the sea route has been cut off! Barracks dangerous! ”
