Admiral Catherine had never been so tired as she was now, but looking at the grief-stricken Riberia compatriots around her, as the kingdom's only remaining naval commander, she could not fall yet. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The strange plague in the mother country, the future of the survivors, these all need to be explored by Catherine, but the voyage that lasted for more than a year was too torturous.

"Admiral! We're running out of fresh water......"

"Where's the magic item? What are the mages doing!? ”

"Running out of mana...... The mages also fell ill...... I really can't hold it anymore, Admiral! ”

Catherine was a little desperate and a little relieved, so was it a relief to be here...... It is ironic that the last of Riberia's nationals could only be buried in the belly of a fish.

"Is that the end of it......"

"Land! The front is land! ”

Just when the admiral was already desperate, the sailors at the lookout post shouted hope: land!

Gradually, the whole fleet began to cheer, they had been on board for too long, and the smooth land was a godsend.

Only Catherine and a handful of officers noticed that land was not meant to be a blessed land, but rather a possibility of fighting with the natives.

This kind of thing is really common for colonists, and there is too little land without owners in this bullshit world.

"Don't rejoice too soon! Get ready for battle! Today no matter what, we must rest on the shore! ”

"Yes!"

Everyone moves, whether you are a soldier or not, to fight for your life and your family, and Catherine's first month of exile led the fleet was the implementation of a comprehensive military management system.

Every man is a soldier, big or small, who must serve the fleet, like those savage tribes of the savannah.

There is no way to do this, who will leave the free kingdom of Riberia with this sober citizen......

As the fleet got closer and closer to land, it finally noticed the black smoke wafting in the sky and the city, where it was clear that there was a fight.

"Send out the scout ship, I need first-hand information"

"Yes!"

The scout ship quickly broke away from the fleet, and the first thing it saw was actually - a transport ship flying the lily flag, although it had all been set on fire......

"This, why does it feel a little familiar?"

"It's like the flag of St. Orlando, or the ...... royals"

"No, they've been fighting a civil war, and they're in the same league with that group of crazy people in the country!"

"I don't know......"

No matter what the Riberian soldiers think, these transports have no rescue value at the moment, not to mention that there are still many people fighting in the port.

Joey shot down the evil cavalry not far away, quickly shrank his head, and in the next second, a series of rune papers and bows and arrows flew over the bunker, blowing up the crowd in a ball.

"Damn it! I knew the captain's plan was unreliable! Where are our ships? ”

"The boats are all on fire! Joey, we have no way back! ”

Joey loaded the bullet, raised his rifle and threw it casually, not even looking to see if he had hit anyone, the port had long been a mess, and he could hit anyone with any shot, and none of them were friendly soldiers.

There weren't many people left in this expeditionary force that had come out to do things without permission, three transport ships were set on fire, the commander was assassinated, and with the sudden riots in Kyoto, only about thirty of them were left alive.

In fact, they had no idea why they were fighting here, and so far, the total number of armed forces gathered in Kyoto has reached more than 20,000.

The strongest fighting Fujido evil army, the Uesugi family's demon shinobi and Sanchiashigaru, the others are a bunch of outright rabble.

Basically, they are small and medium-sized ronin groups that have been improvised together, not affiliated with each other, often in fire and conflict, and equipped with extremely crude weapons, mostly hastily sharpened bamboo guns or improvised sharpened kitchen knives, with only a very small number of muskets and katanas.

The private soldiers who were slightly better than them had no intention of going to war at all, and the Kyoto guards loyal to the Oda family had almost no firearms, and their training and morale were extremely low, which could only scare people.

It's just that the chaotic battlefield of Kyoto doesn't have a unified commander - Fujido only wants to plunder, the Uesugi family is looking for the emperor and doesn't have the heart to care about this, and the others simply don't have the strength to unify others.

With such a scattered war situation, it is simply wishful thinking to occupy Kyoto City, and it is better to say that everyone is here to rob than to occupy Kyoto.

"Damn, I'm running out of ammo!"

"Me too! Ready to get on the bayonet, right? ”

"Is it a white-knuckle fight again...... Wait, look! There are boats outside the port! ”

Joey hurried to stab a Toei Ashigaru to death, and looked at the battleship that suddenly appeared outside, "That's the naval flag of the Kingdom of Riberia!" Quick, find a lily flag, it's up to them to survive! ”

Fortunately, there was little to loot in the port area, and the group of Bretanians managed to find a broken flag and hold it in a fairly solid stone house.

The scout ship soon saw the flag and the Breton soldiers, and immediately lowered a few small boats, which seemed to have come to the rescue.

It's just that when Joey and the others waited for the Riberians, they realized that something was wrong, "Gentlemen, I'm glad you're still alive, but please surrender your weapons." ”

"You're not here to save us?"

"Perhaps, we hope to get supplies and information here, anyway, please cooperate!"

Since Joey didn't want to die, of course they would do as the Riberians said, not to mention that a vague shadow of the fleet could be seen in the distance.

When Catherine got the information, she really couldn't believe it, "They said this is Dongying? ”

"Yes, Your Excellency! We're already in the East, and the capital of the East is in turmoil! ”

"Riot...... That has nothing to do with us, the marines occupy the port, the whole fleet prepares to shell, make the enemy feel our wrath, and then sack the city! ”

"Yes!"

Fujido, who was not too far from the port area, soon got the news: a new enemy appeared in the port area, a large number of Xiyi armed with muskets were rowing and landing, and a large number of Xiyi warships could be seen in the distance.

"You bastards! As a ninja, don't you know the information that was reported to Xiyi!? ”

In the face of Fujido's questioning, he told the Demon Ninja liaison that he didn't blame them, because the Brittanian Eastern Expeditionary Force was still staying in Itatangji and Edo, and had never left at all.

"A bunch of unreliable guys...... Gather the ashigaru, we have to drive those Xiyi into the sea, Kyoto belongs only to us, not these Xiyi! ”

"Hey!"

Just as Fujido was preparing for battle, the Riberia fleet in the distance began to bombard!
