Chapter 1284: Suddenly
Cao Cao picked up a copy of the fold, looked at it, frowned, thought for a moment, wrote instructions on the fold, and then put the fold on his right hand. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, a royal forester rushed in and reported: "Your Majesty, the city gate official has come to report that Alex, the leader of the Jerusalem rebels, has entered the city!" ”
"Oh! Hehe, that's a coincidence! Settle her in the State Guesthouse first! Go and summon the cabinet ministers! ”
"Yes!" The Imperial Forest Army promised and rushed out of the Qianqing Palace.
At this time, Alex and his party walking on West Street were deeply shocked by the scene in front of them.
The tall buildings, the rows of houses, the straight and wide streets, and the bustling flow of people on the streets made them feel unbelievable.
"Master, is this the imperial capital of the Great Wei Empire? It seems to be more brilliant than Rome! Officer Alex said with a look of amazement.
Alex nodded approvingly.
Cao Cao accepted Alex's pilgrimage at the Fengtian Temple, and after retiring from the court, Cao Cao discussed some specific matters with Alex in the Linde Palace.
Alex expressed her desire for more assistance from the Great Wei Empire, and Cao Cao agreed to give more assistance, but Alex had to accept the unified deployment of the Great Wei Empire, which meant that Alex must follow the instructions of the Wei Empire when she counterattacked Jerusalem.
Alex hesitated for a moment, then accepted Cao Cao's terms.
Time flies, and before you know it, two months have passed.
Alex has returned to the Wei outpost.
At this time, the outpost of the Wei army has changed a lot from before, the size of the water village has doubled, and the land village is divided into two parts, one part is the land camp close to the water village, and the other part is in the rocky beach, in view of the lessons of the previous raid, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai built a camp here by the mountain, and now it is impossible for the Roman side to attack from the rocky beach calmly as before!
On this day, a very fortuitous event occurred, which caused another major war between the navies of the Roman Empire and the Great Wei Empire.
A Wei patrol clipper ship was returning home in the evening, lost its way and broke into the waters controlled by the Romans, where it suddenly encountered the Roman patrol clipper.
The soldiers on both sides didn't have time to think, so they subconsciously started a battle.
Soon, the Wei army had the upper hand, but at this time several other Roman patrol ships were speeding in from the northeast.
The Romans surrounded the Wei patrol boat, and after a fierce battle, more than 20 Wei soldiers were all killed, and the ruined Wei patrol ship was dragged back to the water village by the Romans.
"What? The patrol ship of the Wei army? Roman Admiral Relund asked in surprise when he heard the report from his subordinates.
"What's going on? In addition to the patrol ship, were there any other Wei troops found? ”
The general shook his head, "No! Only this one patrol boat was found! ”
Lielund pondered for a moment, and said suspiciously, "What's going on?" Isn't that logical? ”
The general guessed: "Your Excellency General, could this be a reconnaissance and probing operation of the Wei army?" ”
Lielund frowned and nodded, "There is this possibility!" But if it was a reconnaissance operation, it would be too reckless! ”
Everyone nodded, and they all felt extremely puzzled.
Lielund said categorically: "Regardless of why the Wei people have this operation, there are patrol speedboats to closely monitor every move on the sea!" Report back as soon as there is any trouble! ”
"Yes!" A subordinate general answered the promise and ran out of the big tent.
Lielund muttered, "Could it be that the Wei people want to attack?" ”
Just then, a herald ran into the tent.
"Your Excellency, information from the Romans!" The herald presents a herald.
Lielund took the book and read it quickly, his brow furrowed even tighter.
Seeing this, all the generals couldn't help but worry, and one of the generals couldn't help but ask, "Your Excellency, what happened?" ”
Lielund said in a deep voice, "The Wei people's outpost got a batch of heavy catapults a few days ago! These catapults are powerful enough to destroy our fortifications! Maybe the Wei people really plan to attack us! ”
Lielund thought for a moment and said categorically: "We must strike first!" Destroy the naval base of the Wei before they attack! ”
When the generals heard this, they couldn't help but lift their spirits.
Relund asked one of the generals on the left, "How many ships do we have available now?" ”
The general immediately took out a small notebook and replied in a precious manner: "At present, we have a total of 337 large warships of all kinds, including 15 large warships, 42 small warships, 13 fire-breathing ships, and 280 heavy ballistae. ”
Relund nodded with satisfaction, "Good! We're stronger than ever! ”
The general said: "If it is another half a year, our various types of warships will increase by fifty percent!" ”
Lielund said confidently: "The current strength is already very strong! What is the situation on the Wei side? ”
The general replied: "The strength of the Wei people has also been strengthened, especially after the construction of the shipyard near Susa! At present, the Wei army has a total of 261 warships of various types, including eighteen so-called second-class ships, five of which are heavy second-class ships that arrived not long ago, and this kind of second-class ships are not the same as the second-class ships we have seen before, larger, stronger, and more powerful; In addition to this, there were eight large pike boats, twenty-five small pike boats, two hundred and ten heavy ballista boats! In terms of overall strength, although our army has an advantage, it has little advantage! If we storm its water village, the other side will be able to resist the attack of our army by relying on the support of catapults on the shore! ”
Lielund nodded, "Not bad! You have a point! However, this time our mission is not to attack their water village, but to destroy their living force! Here's my plan! ”
Rylund elaborated on his plan.
The crowd will be stunned.
Lielund said: "I have been brewing this plan for a long time, and I originally planned to carry it out after half a year, but since the Wei people want to do it, then I have to act in advance!" Tell all armies to act now! ”
"Yes!" The ministers will clench their fists and promise.
The next morning, the Wei army water village.
"Hasn't the missing patrol ship come back yet?" Gan Ning summoned the scout general and asked.
The Scout General shook his head, "Not yet!" It's been three days since I've been missing, and that's not normal! ”
Gan Ning felt a great headache, "Damn! What's going on? Youping, what do you think? ”
Zhou Tai, who was standing at the head of the left, pondered: "What is certain is that something must have happened to them, otherwise it would not be like this!" There were no warning pigeons flying back, which means that even if they were in trouble, it wasn't a big problem! Wait! ”
Gan Ning nodded, and was about to give orders to the scout general when a herald suddenly rushed in from outside.
The three people in the big tent couldn't help but have a sense of foreboding.
"General, it's a flying pigeon from the No. 7 patrol ship!"
Gan Ning snatched the book, read it quickly, and frowned: "They were attacked!" Well? Isn't that right? The rumor said that the place where they were attacked may have been dozens of miles north of Shuizhai, but our patrol boat has passed by there many times in the past few days, and has not found anything suspicious! ”
Zhou Tai took the handbook from Gan Ning's hand, read it, and frowned: "The book also says 'maybe', which shows that they don't know their exact location at all!" Perhaps, they are lost! It seems that they broke into the waters controlled by the Romans and entered into battle with the patrol ships of the Romans! Eighty percent of them are dead now! ”
"Damn! These guys are actually lost!? Gan Ning said angrily.
Zhou Taidao: "The weather has been gloomy these days, and it's not surprising to get lost!" ”
Gan Ning nodded and ordered the scout general: "From now on, your patrol fleet will be in a group of two ships!" If this happens again, I'm asking you! ”
The scout general hurriedly said yes and withdrew from the big tent.
Gan Ning asked Zhou Taidao with a smile: "I heard that the female bandit's army is now trained decently?" ”
Zhou Tai smiled, "What female bandit?" She's a countess now! ”
Gan Ning pursed his lips, "What countess?" Worthless! ”
"Hehe, Xingba, this title was canonized by His Majesty! How? Do you have an opinion? ”
Gan Ning grinned, "How can I have an opinion?" I just think that His Majesty's meaning of making this countess is different! ”
Zhou Tai couldn't help but be curious, "Oh? I'd love to hear about it! ”
Gan Ning glanced around and said with a lewd expression: "If Your Majesty receives this Alex into the harem, won't Jerusalem be ours?" ”
Zhou Tai was stunned for a moment, pointed his finger at Gan Ning and scolded with a smile: "Xingba, I didn't expect you to be so evil?" ”
Gan Ning rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Bullshit! Didn't Your Majesty also say that? The national interest is above all else, as long as it is beneficial to the national interest, it is just! So my idea couldn't be more righteous! ”
Zhou Taiden was speechless and said with a wry smile: "According to this, it seems that this is really the case?" ”
Then Zhengse said: "It's okay for us to talk about this, but we must not spread it, this will not only hinder Your Majesty's reputation, but also affect Alex's relationship with us!" ”
Gan Ning nodded, "I'm not a fool!" Of course you know that! You can rest assured! ”
After a pause, "It's okay left and right, let's go see Alex's army!" This army will be of great use in the future! ”
Zhou Tai nodded and frowned.
"Hey, what do you want?" Gan Ning asked curiously.
Zhou Taidao: "I wonder, will this sudden incident spur the Romans to take any action? ”
Gan Ning laughed, "How is it possible!" The naval power of the Romans was not much stronger than ours! And on land, in addition to our own army of 50,000, there are more than 100,000 horses of Alex! For now, they simply don't have the ability to attack here! (To be continued.) )
