History of Bourbon's Naval Wars, Chapter 12: The Age of Exhaustion

[Translator's Introduction: When Solit rebelled against the Mossi conquest and Solett refuted it with the wonderful debate between Phocodo VIII, Chapter 11 ends, and the book enters Chapter 12, The Age of Exhaustion, in which Shudros deals mainly with the ten-year war period before the truce. 】

【...... The era of exhaustion lasted for a total of 10 years, that is, from 2086 to 2096, and in the era of exhaustion, the naval war in Bourbon was mainly divided into six main battlefields, namely the battlefield of the Lower Edonan Peninsula, the battlefield of the Upper Edonan Peninsula, the battlefield of the western front of Bourbon, the battlefield of the eastern front of Bourbon, the battlefield of Indoland and the battlefield of Brayazon. 】

[When the era of exhaustion began, the situation on the Lower Edonan Peninsula was favorable to the combined forces of Edonan and Poli, because Polly was closer to the Lower Edonan Peninsula, and Boris needed to support other battlefields, resulting in Boris's naval operations here were very weak, and it was already difficult to protect the territorial waters of the Anrola Channel, let alone aid South Poutu. 】

[And Boris here has been repeatedly interfered with by Pease's politics, and there is almost no one who can serve for more than 3 years before Coles, and Coles is a local nobleman in the Anrola Passage, he is the son of the Fitro family Lur, and took office in 2085 in the calendar. 】

[Coles is a very conservative general, and he believes that unless Boris provides more support, the Anrola Passage should not compete with Polly for control of the sea. In addition to this, he also suggested that South Poutu abandon its coastal territory and relocate its population and army to several main cities close to the Anrola Shipping Route, a proposal that caused great resentment in South Poutu. 】

[Due to Coles' conservative strategy, the main city in the west of the Anrola Passage quickly fell, and in the face of the questioning of the envoy of the Kadosh Palace, Coles said eloquently: "The cities of Badara were conquered from the territory of the Edonans more than two hundred years ago, and there are many Edonans inside, so it is really unsafe, and giving up is the best choice. ”】

[After hearing Coles's answer, the Cardoch Palace was very angry, and Nanpoutu repeatedly asked for a change of commander, so in 2092, the Cardoch Palace replaced Coles with Lanes, the son of Lines of the Fermar family, as the main general. Upon his arrival in La Manca (the capital of the Anrola Passage), Lines changed Coles' strategy and quickly developed an offensive strategy that he claimed could "turn the tide". 】

[After a year of planning, after the autumn harvest of 2093, a huge coalition of Boris and South Poutu will make a huge sortie, with the Navy from La Manca, the Army from Gravenjö, and another detachment from Meta as a suspicious army, and Solit will be contacted to send troops from the Upper Edonan Peninsula to instigate, and the purpose of Raines's action is to break the stalemate in the suppression of South Poutu. 】

[It is said that before Lines set out on the expedition, he also recruited Coles, and proudly asked Coles what his actions were, but Coles replied: "This expedition of the general, the army is rash, the preparation is inadequate, the command is ineffective, the support is not enough, if this will not suffer a fiasco, then what kind of expedition will not suffer a fiasco?"]

[Coles was furious when he heard this, brushed his sleeves away, and swore viciously to Lines before leaving: "When I return from a great victory, I will send you demagogic villain to prison.] ”】

[After the expedition, first of all, in the late winter of the same year, a naval battle broke out between the Polly Navy and the Boris Navy in Garaben Bay, which ended in a disastrous defeat at Boris, representing that the expeditionary force basically lost its naval support. As a result, on the way, Edonan lured the enemy deep into the back to cut off the back road, and was trapped in Tanidin, holding out for half a year before fleeing, announcing the complete failure of Lanes's expeditionary plan. 】

[Lines failed to witness his defeat, as Lines died in the chaos during the defeat of Tanedin. After the total annihilation of the Bonan coalition army, the Polish-Egyptian coalition army took advantage of the situation to launch an invasion of the territory of Bonan, and at this time, Coles contacted the nobleman of Shangnan Boutu to fight the enemy together, and Yu Gravenjiu repelled the invading enemy army. 】

[After the fiasco, the new sea king of Boris, Napolica VII, restored Coles to the position of chief general in the Lower Edonan Peninsula, and sent a message to him: "You are a loyal servant of the country, please encourage yourself!] Some people believe that Napolica VII saw Coles's disobedience at this time. 】

[After Coles was reinstated, he resumed his conservative strategy, and the South Boutu, which suffered a heavy defeat, did not dare to regain the lost territory again, so the war stalemate, before the truce, Edonan and Poli occupied most of the territory of the Lower Edonan Peninsula, but they could not completely drive South Boutu and Boris from the peninsula. 】

【...... On the Upper Edonan Peninsula, it was mainly the Solit's North Poutu rebels fighting against Poli, who at first was gradually suppressed in the vicinity of Biel and could not move outward, but as the war continued, the Poly became more and more harsh on the North Poutu, causing more and more North Poutu to take refuge in Solit. 】

[For this, Poli's high-level had a premonition, as early as when Solit had just rebelled, Fokodo VIII said this to the attendants:]

["After this scar is torn open, the differences between the North Poutu and the Poly will only grow, this is not something that can be unsalvaged, this is the evil conspiracy of Solit, I saw it, but I can't stop it. ”】

[Focodo VIII's prophecy is very correct, although as Poli's rule over the Upper Edonan Peninsula grows longer, the North Poutu people who live on the peninsula get along with the Poly people more and more, but after the Solit rebellion, the two groups inevitably develop distrust and estrangement, pushing more and more North Poutu people to the side of Solit. 】

[This is also the reason why Solit only had a little territory of Bill at the beginning, which did not pose much of a threat to Polly, but as the war continued, Solit's army fought more and more, and finally became Polly's biggest threat. 】

[At the beginning of the exhaustion period, it was mainly Polly attacking Bill, and every time Polly attacked, he was successfully defended by Solit. The first time Solit decided to take the initiative was in 2093 when he received an invitation from Lines to attack in Bill to help Lines in his plan to involve part of Poli's army on the Upper Edonan Peninsula. 】

[So after the autumn harvest, Solit sent troops as promised, and at this time, in order to annihilate Boris's expeditionary force, Poli had already transferred most of his army to the Lower Edonan Peninsula, and the army left on the Upper Edonan Peninsula was not elite. However, at this time, the local commander saw that Solit sent troops from Bill for the first time, but thought that this was the best opportunity to annihilate Solit, so he also took the initiative to attack and tried to annihilate the Solit army, which rarely left Bill. 】

[The battle between Polly and Solit broke out in Gennela, and at first Solit was precarious, but in the decisive charge at the last moment, Solit successfully routed the weak right flank of the Polly army, resulting in the collapse of its originally not elite army. 】

[After the Battle of Gennilla, Solit completely became a climate, and the Polly army did not dare to stop it in the Upper Edonan Peninsula, and a large number of North Poutu people defected to Solit, which led to the fact that even after the Polly army annihilated the Boris Hui army, they did not dare to launch the offensive against Bil as easily as before. 】

[Of course, there is another reason why Poli did not dare to launch an offensive, Focodo VIII now believes that the entire Mossi conquest of the guard is not credible, so he ordered the generals to conquer the Mossi only need to ensure the existing main city and wait for the situation on other battlefields to change. 】

[With the great victory at the Battle of Gennilla, Solit Hubir proclaimed the official establishment of the state of the North Poutu people, independence from Poly, as he claimed at the founding convention:]

["Over the years, I have repeatedly hoped that we could negotiate with Polly and make us Polly's subjects again, but Polly has broken our hearts again and again by besieging Bill, and today I have come to my senses, since Polly has rejected us again and again, then let's just separate!

[The abbreviation of the country where Solit established the country is called Pomosi, it is said that there is an interesting fact, at the beginning the abbreviation of the country name was set as North Boutu, but Solit was unwilling, he said: "With the addition of the north and the south, I always feel that it is a latecomer country, and the establishment of the country in South Poutu for more than 600 years has always been a stepping stone, which shows that this kind of country name abbreviation is really unlucky." ”】

[Therefore, Solit, who felt unlucky, rejected the abbreviation of the country name of North Poutu, and determined the abbreviation of the country name to Pomosi. 】

[Among them, Bo is a reverent syllable, and Mossi is a famous legend of the North Poutu people, it was Moshi who led the North Poutu people to defeat the Edonan people who crossed the sea, defeated the Poli who tried to conquer the North Poutu, and ensured the autonomy of the North Poutu for 400 years. 】

【...... Compared with other fronts, the battlefield on the western front of Bourbon Island is no longer in full swing in the past, and the status of generals here has also dropped again and again, and many people have proposed that the western front should be completely abandoned and the manpower of the western front should be supplemented by other more urgently needed fronts. 】

[But Napolika VII rejected these proposals, and he said very firmly: "To ensure the existence of the Western Front can ensure that Polly cannot arbitrarily cross Batis, and to ensure the existence of Batis, you can ensure that the Dumo Liao transit will not be invaded by Polly.] ”】

[Therefore, at the insistence of Napolika VII, the western front of Bourbon Island was retained, but the western front and the eastern front were merged into the Bourbon battlefield, and the position of the local chief general became a special independent general under the general of Bourbon, and then the western front was withdrawn to Battis, ensuring that Battis was still under the control of Boris. 】
