Chapter 82: The Storm Approaches
"What a magnificent battleship, how does Alexander feel?"
"I just want to say that if you dare to teleport such a large object, are the imperial mages all monsters?"
Lorraine shrugged at Alexander's surprise, the Imperial Mage might be a monster, but so so long as there were these air warships, Tokugawa Ieyasu's air power was nothing to fear. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The Far East Air Detachment sent seven warships this time, and judging from the information received and on-site intelligence, there were three large gunboats, two small gunboats, an integrated supply ship, and the largest flagship.
There is nothing to say about the appearance of the gunboat and the integrated supply ship, the key is the flagship - this experimental integrated battleship can open ultra-long-distance teleportation devices in a short time, and there are two 152mm enchanted turrets installed in the front and rear, in addition to this, it actually carries a large number of carrier-based aircraft!
While Lorraine was still lamenting the fact that this warship was not magical at all, the mages accompanying the Far East Detachment took off one by one, and the fixed-wing fighters were taking off rapidly.
"Admiral Lorraine! The Far Eastern Detachment asks us to identify ourselves! ”
"Hey, can't you see so many Breton flags...... Send back a message, don't be hurt by a friendly soldier! ”
"Yes!"
Soon the Far East Squadron received the news that a familiar figure appeared in Lorraine's field of vision, and after confirming Lorraine's location, the other party jumped directly - "Mr. Lorraine!" Vivien is coming for you! ”
"Vivien!?"
Lorraine was very surprised to see Vivien's figure, and when she thought of the other party's special abilities and plans in the Imperial Magic Research Institute, she instantly thought of the large number of carrier-based aircraft on the flagship.
The girl landed very quickly, but with the help of magic, she landed accurately on Lorraine's flagship, and threw herself into Lorraine's arms as soon as she arrived on deck.
"Your Excellency General, I miss you so much!" Feeling the softness of the girl, Lorraine's heart couldn't help but swing, but when the other party began to use a small hammer to launch a coquettish love - it still hurts!
"That...... Vivien, why are you in the detachment? In order to avoid being hammered, Lorraine immediately began to ask questions to divert the other party's attention.
"It's because there has been a major breakthrough in the application of conduction circuits!" The girl quickly turned on the commentary mode, and it turned out that all this was really the pot of the Magic Research Institute.
According to the instructions of Her Majesty Empress Josephine, the experts of the Magic Research Institute spent a lot of materials and time to finally copy the conduction circuit to others for weakened version.
Although all the male experimenters failed, the girls unexpectedly adapted to this sage ability, especially the remote control skills of the drone developed by Vivian, which allowed them to exert amazing combat effectiveness.
One person can operate fourteen fixed-wing fighters after training, and the reason why fixed-wing fighters are chosen is to treat them as consumables, and gyroplanes cannot afford such indiscriminate use.
In addition to being able to become a one-man carrier-based aircraft carrier, it is also possible to use gunboats, but this requires strong computing power (calculating the angle of shelling, etc.), so the ship-based girls on the gunboat can only be divided into small groups, and control firepower, communication, command, and engine movement in groups.
"Sounds amazing...... At this point in this time, could it be said that the empire is ready to explode the sea of floating warships? ”
"It's not that powerful, although the shipboard girl can operate the battleship alone, but there is no way to achieve precision tactics and damage management maintenance in one step......"
"But this is very powerful, it can free up a large number of people to enter other positions, Vivien, you are really amazing!"
"Hehe, if you can help Your Excellency General, Vivien will be satisfied......"
"Ahem, please pay attention to His Excellency Admiral Lorraine, and Captain Vivien! It's an important meeting time, so let's talk about it later! ”
Alexander, who couldn't stand it at all, interrupted the bloody romance drama, this attitude of wantonly giving out dog food must be unbearable, where is the beautiful Miss Charlotte......
"Okay...... Vivien, do you have any instructions this time? ”
"Well, His Majesty Josephine has asked us to continue to maintain influence in Dongying, and it is better to get a few more concessions, and we must also get in touch with the Silk Continent."
"It seems that we are dissatisfied that we didn't get real money...... It was this time that Tokugawa Ieyasu provoked the Toei Civil War, and we could take the opportunity to gain more benefits. ”
Alexander looked at Lorraine a little strangely, "If you just got so much and still want Nobunaga to pay, maybe it's impossible, right?" ”
"When did I support Nobunaga?" Lorraine shrugged, showing the ugly face of the imperialist general, "As long as we can get the most benefit, wouldn't it be possible to support an obedient agent to solve everything?" ”
Lorraine's statement made everyone understand what is called shamelessness, which is colonialism - the aggressive policy of Britannia, as a relatively powerful country, using military, political and economic means to occupy, enslave and exploit weak countries, nationalities and backward regions, and turn them into colonies and semi-colonies.
During the period of primitive accumulation of capital, most of them resorted to naked violent means, such as armed occupation, overseas immigration, pirate plunder, fraudulent trade, and bloody slave trade.
And Lorraine chose to support the agent, intervening in the civil war in the east to plunge the country into a lasting division, absolutely a big bad guy!
The Far Eastern Detachment arrived and was grouped into the Eastern Army, re-advancing in the direction of Edo, and at this time Tokugawa Ieyasu's troops had already appeared in the Osaka area.
In the name of Emperor Kagura, he called on the princes of the world to join the Tokugawa army in the crusade against Uesugi Kenshin and Oda Nobunaga, the former whose territory was mostly mountainous, but Nobunaga had to pull out most of his army and gather in Osaka.
Until now, Emperor Tokusho had not been found, and finally had to force the inner prince Jiuho to become the new emperor in order to call on allies to join the resistance against Tokugawa Ieyasu.
And Emperor Tokusho is also not a worry-free guy, taking advantage of the fact that the main commanders of the Eastern Army are going to join the reinforcements, he actually hooked up with the Uesugi family, and ran to the other party's territory with the help of the demon ninja to re-establish his own banner.
In just one month, all three families got their own emperor, and with Tokugawa Ieyasu's march to Osaka, the other two families were not to be outdone.
More than 500,000 troops are gathering on Osaka, and all the armed professional soldiers of the entire Toei will fight for the ambitions of the lords.
This is also the number of soldiers that Dongying can gather in the contemporary era, and no matter how much logistics can no longer keep up, speaking of which, the number of professional soldiers here is only about a quarter of the number.
The Battle of the Three Emperors is about to begin.
