"Your Majesty, we have taken Gibraltar! After one hundred and forty years of occupation by the British, Gibraltar is once again back in our hands! ”。 Although, the war has broken out. However, so far, the Spanish 6th Army has not officially entered the battlefield, and this time the battle of Gibraltar is undoubtedly a good start for them.

"Great! Are our casualties large? Queen Isabella II asked.

"Uh, Your Majesty. Because of the British insistence, our casualties were not small. The losses of both infantry brigades attacking Gibraltar were somewhat heavy, with more than 2,400 killed and more than 1,100 seriously wounded. ”。

"Damn British!" Queen Isabella II cursed.

"Your Majesty, the British have been operating in Gibraltar for more than a hundred years, and they have built a complete set of fortifications, and it is already very good that we can recapture Gibraltar at such a price!" The Lord of the Admiralty, Duke Aguilera, also said.

Queen Isabella II nodded, then said, "I know that casualties are inevitable. It's just that for the sake of the country, it is too cruel to let so many young people go to the battlefield! May God bless them! ”

Queen Isabella II is just a young woman in her twenties after all, and in this respect, she still seems too kind.

"Your Majesty, the Chinese side has proposed to repair Gibraltar as much as possible so that the 1st Fleet of the Chinese Navy can be stationed here." Duke Aguilera continued.

"The Chinese fleet is going to be stationed in Gibraltar? Will they stay there and not leave, just like the British? "Queen Isabella II was worried. If that's the case. Wasn't it in vain that Spain paid such a big price to recover Gibraltar?

"Nope. 陛xià. The Chinese fleet is nothing more than a temporary station, they are in Europe. There is no military port. Besides, now the Chinese fleet is the main force against the British, and we should provide the Chinese fleet with a military port. In addition, when the Chinese fleet is stationed, our fleet can also be stationed there. The Chinese side has promised that when the war is over, they will withdraw! Duke Aguilera said.

"I hope so!" Queen Isabella II said. Although, the Chinese Empire was an ally of the Kingdom of Spain. However, for the sake of the national interest. Allies can also come forward. Although the two sides are on the same side now, what will become of the war when the war is over? The Kingdom of Spain also has to guard against this! However, Queen Isabella II also believes that the Chinese should not be as shameless as the British.

In just two days, Gibraltar fell, such a result. Even the British could not believe it. Initially, with the strong fortress of Gibraltar, no matter how much it was able to hold out for more than a year. Before the outbreak of war. The British had stockpiled large quantities of weapons, ammunition and food in Gibraltar, enough for the defenders there to consume for more than a year. But now, it's only been two days. was breached, and this result ......

to strengthen the defense of the Mediterranean front. Meantime. Try to avoid a decisive battle with the Chinese fleet. After all, judging by the current strength, the home fleet of the British Navy has no chance of winning at all.

The fall of the fortress of Gibraltar marked the fall of the entire Mediterranean into the control of the Empire. The route from the Empire to Europe will be unimpeded and will not be hindered in any way. At that time, the Empire's troops and various war materials will be able to be transported to Europe in a steady stream.

In Huaxia City, the capital of the empire, Emperor Long Yufei was also very satisfied after learning that the fortress of Gibraltar had been captured. At least, the Empire now has the upper hand on all major battlefields. If the North Atlantic military alliance wants to regain its inferiority, it will no longer be possible. Next, the empire only needs to take it step by step to achieve the established strategy.

Long Yufei directly gave an order to the 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy, asking them to go to the Kingdom of Sardinia to punish this betrayer.

Today, the Kingdom of Sardinia has unified most of Italy. It's just that because the 1st Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy quickly annihilated the Mediterranean Fleet of the British Navy, the Kingdom of Sardinia did not dare to act rashly for a while. The main forces of their forces were placed in the coastal areas, ready to defend themselves against the attack of the Chinese* army. As for sending troops to attack other countries of the Eurasian military alliance, it is even more impossible.

Long Yufei ordered the 1st Fleet to take this opportunity to turn all the coastal cities of the Kingdom of Sardinia into ruins, so that they would know the fate of betraying the Empire. At present, the empire does not have any surplus troops to send to Europe, so it can only use this method to collect interest first. When the Empire's army is mobilized, it will send troops to Europe to directly destroy the betrayer.

On the night of August 5, 1854, the 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy received an order from Emperor Long Yufei. Originally, the fleet was going to dock and rest. However, Long Yufei's order was issued, so that the fleet had to temporarily stop recuperating.

"Your Majesty's order has been given, order the fleet, prepare to set sail! It's time to let those guys in the Kingdom of Sardinia know how wrong they were in the first place! Admiral Wei Yong, commander of the 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy, said.

"Yes! If you have made the wrong choice, you have to accept the punishment! Vice Admiral Xu Hai, chief of staff of the fleet, also said.

The officers of the 6 Imperial Navy were full of anger at the treacherous Kingdom of Sardinia. In the more than ten years since the founding of the Empire, it has never encountered such an ally. The allies who signed with the empire actually openly betrayed the treaty and threw themselves into the arms of the enemy, which is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the empire! Therefore, when the Kingdom of Sardinia announced its withdrawal from the Asia-Europe Military Alliance and joined the North Atlantic Military Alliance, the generals of the 6 navies of the empire wrote to the Kingdom of Sardinia, requesting that troops be sent to the Kingdom of Sardinia to directly destroy this villain who saw the wind and steered the rudder.

However, the situation at that time was more complicated, the empire was already preparing to go to war on other fronts, and there were no spare troops to punish the Kingdom of Sardinia for the time being. Even now, the Imperial 6th Army has been mainly used in the Russian, Indian and American theaters, and there are no surplus troops sent to Europe. Therefore, the Kingdom of Sardinia could only be punished with the navy first.

The 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy immediately set sail for the Kingdom of Sardinia, after informing the Kingdom of Spain. The first target of the attack was the titular capital of the Kingdom of Sardinia, Cagliari, a city located in the eastern part of Sardinia. The Kingdom of Sardinia originally originated in Sardinia. However, after conquering the territory of northwestern Italy, the actual territory has been moved from Cagliari to Turin. Cagliari, in name only, is the capital.

The navy of the Kingdom of Sardinia was very weak, with only a few old sail ships. At a time when the world's advanced navy had entered the age of steam in great strides, the Kingdom of Sardinia did not have enough money and technology to invest in it. In addition, the main goal of the Kingdom of Sardinia was to unify Italy, so the navy had gradually declined.

At 4 p.m. on August 7, 1854, the 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy appeared off the coast of Cagliari. This is the time when the fishing boats that had gone out fishing returned to port. However, the sudden appearance of a powerful fleet caused these fishing boats to panic and flee in all directions.

"All forward, all the fishing boats that stand in front of the Imperial fleet will be sunk!" Admiral Wei Yong, commander of the 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy, gave the order. He had no pity for these Sardinians. Although,, it has nothing to do with these ordinary people. But who called them Sardinians? Complain that their king is a shameless villain!

"Run, it's the Chinese's warship, they're here to retaliate!"

"We're just civilians, so why do you want to do it to us?"

These Sardinians shouted and roared in anger, but none of this could change their fate. Wooden fishing boats can't resist steel warships at all. The soldiers on the battleship also operated heavy machine guns and rifles to shoot at them.

Many fishermen of the Kingdom of Sardinia were shot dead on the spot, and their bodies fell into the sea and became food for sharks.

Although, there is something inhumane about firing at civilians. However, in this era, the so-called humanism was not officially formed. It is inevitable that all countries will harm civilians in war. In addition to treating its own people as human beings, the Chinese armed forces have never regarded foreigners as human beings. These gringos, if they are killed, they will be killed.

The 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy went on a rampage and sailed into the sea less than six kilometers from Cagliari. All the battleships were turned horizontally and aimed at the shore with their sides. A cannon with a muzzle pointing at Cagliari, and a thick muzzle that looks hideous.

On the shore, the Sardinians were fleeing with wolves. They fled the harbor in a hurry and fled into the city.

The Chinese Navy appeared on the coast with great momentum, it must be a bad comer! What's more, their country is a betrayer, so it is natural to be able to guess the intentions of the Chinese Navy. Some of the Sardinians even complained, but they didn't get to this point! It's just that it's too late to say anything. (To be continued!)
