Chapter 122: The Storm Rises (I)
The 20th Fleet of Iseras is completely finished.
After the flagship was breached, the fleet commander Valente Kosen was killed, and 4,000 mechs with super destructive power continued to attack, the remaining more than 8,000 warships surrendered to the cavalry regiment. After obtaining Yunyi's consent, the Iseraths took the surviving battleship of the destroyed headquarters to the intact battleship, and used their main guns to destroy all the damaged battleships.
After all this is done, Yun Yi asks the bear to double-check and make sure that no records will be left.
Under the control of Little Bear, 8,000 warships slowly left this asteroid belt and quietly flew in the direction of the resistance base.
……
On November 25, 5251 in the universe calendar, the 20th fleet of Iseras encountered an unknown enemy while carrying out a mission in the DD-TIP4021 asteroid belt, destroying more than 6,000 warships, and the remaining 8,000 warships were missing. Among the destroyed flagships, parts of the mechs of the fleet commander Valenta Kosen were found.
This news not only spread throughout the upper echelons of Iseras, but also spread to the entire countries of the Southern Universe along the Tianxun network. Immediately afterwards, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Iserras issued a stern rebuke, expressing great indignation and strong condemnation of Berwick's penetration into the territory of Iserras and the large number of casualties. Berwick's attitude was astonishing, and instead of admitting or refuting it, there was silence.
Since the capture of the head of the entire powerful military empire of Isseras by the Beric army half a year ago, many countries have speculated that there will be a war between the two countries. A powerful empire with the military power of the Southern Universe second only to the Chu and Tang Empires, and a newly rising emerging country with strong economic strength, if there is a war between these two countries, it will inevitably affect the situation in the entire Southern Universe. The incident that happened on November 25 was considered by many to be a sign of imminent war between the two countries.
For a time, the ambassadors of the two countries moved around, asking for help and support, hoping to join the fight.
Most countries, especially those that do not share a border with the two countries, are not directly involved in the war, and it will not matter which side wins. However, the ambassadors of the two countries were received with great caution in the countries around the two countries and even in the southwest universe.
Other countries immediately announced their political intentions.
The President of the Federation of Lekima and Marshal of the Empire, Werner, announced at the first time that the Iseras Empire had invaded the Federation of Lekima and led to the division of the Federation of Lekima, and that he was the enemy of the Federation of Lekima. The Republic of Berwick rose in the Federation of Lekima, and its citizens were once members of the Federation of Lekima, and the Federation and the Republic are brothers of the same mother! In this war, the Federation of Lekima will unconditionally support the Republic of Berwick and completely eliminate Iseras!
At the same time as this statement was issued, the Federation's main force, the Third Fleet, sailed to Berwick with great fanfare, apparently to join the war.
Less than an hour after the Lekima Federation made its public announcement on the Internet, the Kingdom of El Taviye announced its unconditional support for Yseras. The king of the country declared on the Internet that the abduction of the emperor of an empire is the most serious provocation to a country and a provocation to all imperial states! El Tavier will do whatever it takes to maintain the supremacy of the Imperial Court!
After the declaration, the Kingdom of Eltavier sent two main fleets to Isseras to support it, and mobilized five main fleets to line up on the border of Berwick, with the intention of self-evident.
In the last war of Iri, Eltavier was a supporter of Iseras, and gained a lot of benefits in that war, and the country's territory almost doubled! This time, they were naturally not to be left behind, and jumped out as soon as possible.
Next, the surrounding Ketra Kingdom, Xiao Chen Kingdom, and Leland Republic all expressed their support for the Beric Republic. The Kingdom of Kaitra and the Kingdom of Xiao Chen were both vassal states of the Chu Tang Empire, and making such a statement was on the one hand at the behest of the Chu Tang Empire, and on the other hand, it was also their own will. Like the Republic of Leland, the three of them have benefited greatly from bilateral trade during the rise of Berwick, and the relationship is very good. Moreover, once Iseras defeated and annexed Berwick, they would be directly bordered by that terrifying war machine, which they could not accept.
After that, the two smaller countries, Kaitra and Xiao Chen, each sent half a fleet to support, and the Republic of Leland sent a fleet to support the Republic of Berwick.
In contrast, the United States of Carto, Poland, located in the northern part of the Kingdom of Eltawie, expressed its support for Iseras, and although they did not send a fleet, they said that they could send a fleet to support the Isseras Empire if "necessary".
So far, the neighboring countries, with the exception of the Papal States of Santa Calinia, the Kingdom of Meenland, and the Kingdom of Campo, have expressed their support. With the transfer of the fleets of all sides, the entire southwest region has also become turbulent.
On November 27, the third day of the destruction of the 20th fleet of Iseras, the strongest country in the entire southern universe of Chu and Tang finally issued its own statement. The statement said that the Republic of Beric is an important ally and partner of the Chu-Tang Empire, and any country that tries to oppose Berwick will be regarded as an enemy by the Chu-Tang Empire!
This statement immediately triggered a huge earthquake in the entire southern universe.
Although many countries know that Chu Tang and Berwick have a good relationship. And Chu Tang has always had two fleets staying in the territory of the Republic of Berwick. But support is support, and no one thought that the Chutang Empire would regard Berik, a country established less than ten years ago, as a real ally! What an ally is, it is a relationship of dialogue on an equal footing and mutual support. Regarded as the entire Southern Universe, which country has the conditions to become an ally of the giant Chu Tang?
Even the Republic of Leland and the most powerful kingdom in the southeast, the Maiah Kingdom, were not arrogant enough to raise their country to the point where they could form an alliance with Chu Tang.
But that newly rising small country has such an honor?
Could it be that the country called Berwick still has some hidden background or strength that is enough for Chu Tang to regard it as an equal?
Doubts are doubts, but Chu Tang's statement is beyond doubt. In less than an hour after Chu Tang's statement, countless countries immediately issued their own statements, all expressing support for Berwick and condemnation of the Empire of Iseras.
Next, Tianxun Network Group exposed a large number of Iseras's inside stories on the Internet, which once again caused a sensation in the entire Southern Universe.
These materials include various data within Iseras, such as military spending, fiscal revenue, per capita income of citizens, national standard of living, and so on. It also includes videos, materials, and photographs from various planets of Iseras.
At this point, the tyrannical militarism of Iserras was finally revealed to the human beings of the entire southern universe. Everyone who saw this information was shocked, stunned, and angry! They don't know that there is such a backward, poor, and inhumane country in this universe. In the past, people had the impression that Iserras, although closed, was also a democratic, free and powerful country. And now, through these materials, they finally understand why Iserras has the second most powerful ability in the entire southern universe despite the small number of planets.
The annual military expenditure of Iserras accounts for more than seventy percent of all the country's income! One can imagine how much money the country has left to spend on people's livelihoods, in addition to military spending, government maintenance costs, and necessary expenditures? This is a completely deformed development, and countless experts and professors have said that if the country cannot obtain enough resources from foreign wars, it will collapse from the inside on its own for a maximum of ten years.
Suddenly, in the eyes of countless people, Yseras immediately became synonymous with evil.
Dozens of human rights, health, environmental, and humanitarian organizations have strongly condemned Isseras, and even peace organizations, which have always opposed war, have rejected their consistent propositions, hoping that countries can work together to force the country to change!
For a time, in most countries, people knew about the country of Isseras and its interior through the intensive bombardment on the Tianxun network, and people also expressed their disgust and hatred for this country in their conversations. In some countries, such as the Republic of Leland and the Republic of Orly, where people are more liberal people, many people have organized themselves to march in the streets, hoping that the state will send troops to save the people of Isseras, who are living in dire straits.
Of course, they can only demonstrate for a while, and they are unlikely to have too much practical effect. However, driven by the online public opinion of various countries, there are more and more people who support Berwick, and even many people have donated money to Berwick, hoping that they can send troops to Iseras as soon as possible to completely destroy this evil country.
However, on December 1, the seventh day of the destruction of the 20th fleet of Isseras, more than a dozen countries, including the Scorpion Empire and the Pisces Empire, expressed their support for Iserras on the Internet, and said that the Iserras people are the citizens of Iserras, and the political system of Iserras is the internal affairs of the country, and no one or organization is allowed to meddle in it. At the same time, it strongly condemned Berwick's entry into the territory of Yserath to attack its fleet, causing a large number of casualties, and stated that if the Republic of Berwick provoked and started a war, they would unconditionally support Iserras and even send a fleet.
This statement was like a bombshell, which immediately shocked countless people. They do not understand why these countries, which have no borders and have never had diplomatic relations, and who are so far apart, should make such a statement. For a while, rumors were rampant, there were all kinds of things, people were panicked, and some people even judged that a storm of war was coming that spread throughout the entire southern universe.
But then another even heavier bomb exploded.
On December 2, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Berwick held a press conference, announcing that Berwick was about to change its name to the Zhao Song Empire, and announced that Miss Zhao Xiyue, a famous singer in the universe, was a descendant of the Zhao Song bloodline and was about to ascend to the throne of the Empress of the Zhao Song Empire.
Suddenly, the entire Southern Universe was completely sensational.
