"40,000 captives for 2 cities, this is really a ...... deal You really dare to speak, tsk!" Julils Fort shook his head with a sneering face, "It's really a pity, although I am the head of the southwest region, I don't have the authority to do so" "I didn't say that it was fair to me! You just need to secretly order the withdrawal of the garrisons of the two cities!" The fat man had already prepared for this, and he smiled and said" 40,000 prisoners of the Southwest Army is indeed a big burden for me, because it is the regular army of the Gallic Empire, it is difficult for me to blatantly dispose of these prisoners completely, Algernonkatya has returned to Beijing, and it is only a matter of time before these 40,000 prisoners are released, so it is better to exchange something cheap" "Oh, what are you going to do with the two cities?" Julilsfort turned around, his eyes flickered, and his face showed a very interested expression, the southwest is only his temporary, and the northwest is his eternity, and he also knows very well that the emperor's majesty appointed himself to be the head of the southwest region when the Gangfei army invaded, and it was more to find charges and uproot the entire Julils family, precisely because of this, in the past month, Julilsfort has done his best to defend the southwest, "I will provoke trouble between the two cities, and then ......!" Under his gaze, the fat man shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, and did not continue, but the meaning was obvious, and he also believed that Julilsfort knew very well what this was, "This will make me very embarrassed! It is not difficult to withdraw the garrison, but what if the two cities ask me for help" Julilsfort looked out the window, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he was a little hesitant, "Could it be that the southwest can mobilize a lot of troops at the moment?" The fat man flipped over the text on the table in the room, and asked in surprise. No, if there are any reinforcements, it's my guard!" Julilsfort stood in front of the window, the sun shining on him, and shook his head with an ugly face, "I'm not afraid of your jokes." The situation in the southwest is very bad, there is a shortage of troops, morale is low, the defensive line is precarious, there is a possibility of being broken through at any time, a conservative estimate, if there are not enough reinforcements, the southwest is only afraid that it will be difficult to hold out until the spring" "That's not enough, take away the garrisons of the two cities as reinforcements, and then find a reason to temporarily suppress the report of the two cities" The fat man touched his nose with shining eyes. He said to himself, "In times of war, it is really normal to temporarily delay the report of local government affairs due to military needs!"

"You're really ......" Julils Fort was speechless for a while, and the method proposed by the fat man made him also moved, suppressing a report and handing over the city, which approach is more sequelae, it couldn't be more obvious,

Fingers tapped lightly on the table, eyebrows slightly raised. This was his subconscious demeanor as he was thinking, and the sound of Julils Fort tapping on the table stopped, and he made up his mind, he had already figured out how to avoid getting into trouble because of this matter, "Patrol the line!"

Suppressing the report of the magistrate is for an old fritter like him. It was a breeze, and according to normal procedures, it often took several days for a report to arrive at the consulate general from the locality. And if the general in charge of the reply happens to be out fighting during this time, it will be even more difficult to say when he will get a reply. Compared with this, getting the aid of 40,000 soldiers is more useful, "Okay, I can promise this" Thinking of the imminent acquisition of 40,000 soldiers, because of the current predicament, Fort Julilsford was already a little impatient to ask, "But when will the 40,000 prisoners be given to me?"

"Don't worry!"

The fat man got up from his seat and patted the corner of his clothes, he knew that it was time for this secret meeting to come to an end, and everyone took what they needed, whether it was the Julils family or himself, the fundamental interests were in the northwest, "Give me the right to control all the ports authorized by the Southwest Navy, and I will order the fleet to transport the prisoners directly over, and you send someone to receive them in the port!" The fat man opened the door of the living room, outside the door, the bright sun shone on the roof, dragging out a long shadow, the fat man walked up to the black carriage waiting outside the door, considering the entanglement with the generals of the southwest army, the fat man's arrival was very low-key, no one knew that the door of fate in the southwest was being opened, "What determines history is often some inconspicuous details!"

The fat man sat in the carriage, looking at the woods that quickly crossed on both sides of the road, his fingers thighed lightly, the picturesque southwest, different from the barren and vast northwest, the density of the towns in the southwest was very large, and the outline of the town could be seen every dozen miles, the fat man's eyes flashed some excitement from time to time, it had been a long time since he had seen such a beautiful idyllic scenery, although it was still winter, the great plain in front of him was like a big map, dotted with vegetable gardens, pastures and gardens, a network of interlaced ditches and rivers, hyacinths fluttering in the wind on the hillsides and purple rowland grass, mixed with white snow weight, exuding the message that spring was coming, windmills that turn slowly in the breeze like giants, clusters of farmhouses, colorful small villages, huts with roof tilted to inhabit storks,

Retracting his gaze from this qiē, the fat man's heart calmed down slightly, this harvest was beyond expectations, taking over the ports and equipment of the Southwest Navy was secondary, and the entire western coast was completely incorporated into the control of the navy without any risk was the first.

This time it is not the barren northwest that is open, but the southwest region that is the focus of the Gallic Empire, with dense cities, lush commerce, and a population more than three times that of the northwest region.

In February, the Falcon Fleet that took over the port from the hands of the Southwest Army, the Minister of the Navy Dustrenkai personally sat in charge, and the huge fleet composed of more than 120 warships, after resting and recuperating, began to march towards the combat area, according to the information provided by the Southwest Army, the Congo-Africa Navy has blocked the lower half of the sea area, and a blockade net composed of the Congo-Africa Third Fleet and the Fourth Fleet is shrouded in front of the target Adonis Island, and the Gang-Africa Navy is not a fool, according to intelligence, the headquarters of the Gang-Africa Navy this time is the Adonis Island

On February 11, a rare cloudless sky on the sea, a clear sky, on the sea level like a white line in the distance, the lookout on the mast of the Fourth Fleet patrol ship Ajlis, was looking at the sea in front of him, only to see countless black spots, like a slender line spreading. From his experienced experience, he knew that there were at least 40 or more large warships that were speeding towards this side, and in fact he saw a huge group of 110 Falcon warships

When the report of "a large number of enemy fleets approaching rapidly" came, the commander of the Fourth Fleet, Marquis Recente, was greatly surprised, and the alarm transmitted by the patrol ship had not been ten minutes old, and in the blink of an eye, the black spots on the sea in the distance had increased rapidly, and the range had also rapidly expanded.

"What's going on?" the Marquis of Raycent ran out of his ship's cabin and personally examined the authenticity of the report. The number of enemy ships was unexpected, and his face suddenly turned pale, and the masts of the dense battleships on the opposite side were like a forest suddenly appearing on the sea

"Where did these enemies come from?"

Marquis Raycent subconsciously shuddered, it was incredible, even in the heyday of the Southwest Navy, he would never be able to find such a huge group of ships, this is the maritime defense area he is responsible for, because most of the warships have been sent out to cruise, and the warships that are really left by the flagship's side are not even one-third

"Bastard. What are you doing, it's really taking advantage of people's danger!" Marquis Recente said these stupid words unconsciously, and he wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, even though it was winter

"Commander, what are we going to do?" the adjutant's voice pleaded. It also seems a little impetuous. This tone violently touched every nerve of the Marquis! He could already imagine the massacre that would unfold when such a large group of ships of the opposing side rushed into his own ranks, "order the ships to move closer to the flagship!" The Marquis of Raycente's voice was a little hoarse, and he shouted loudly, "Urgently contact the 2nd and 6th Fleets!" Inform the Third Fleet that the enemy is coming, and ask the base camp to ......!"

Marquis Raycent shouted vigorously, and at that moment, his voice was interrupted by a violent muffled thunder, and the flash of light emitted by the oncoming group of ships instantly whitened his face. The enemy is attacking

The 30 dragon tooth battleships that advanced diagonally in the most commando team, at the moment of launch, formed a wall of smoke about 200 meters long on the sea of smoke from the shooting, countless red lights flashed inside, and the energy emitted expanded

The cannonballs dragging the tail of black smoke were like a scythe-wielding Grim Reaper roaring, and countless fires exploded in the front of the Fourth Fleet in an instant, and the water column that rose into the sky, accompanied by the crackling sound of the battleship's hull, the forward composed of the dragon's tooth battleship slammed into the front of the Fourth Fleet, like a huge file, cutting down fiercely, "boom"

The light of the explosions almost obscured the color of the sky, the explosion of the fireball brought the rumbling echo of the moment of the explosion, the heart-rending howls of the wounded sailors, the ignited canvas whirring by the wind, and the complete chaos on the deck, "Forward, cut them!" The Thor on the side of the Dragon's Tooth Ship Group spewed huge firelight clusters into the vast sea at a rate of every minute, forty seconds and ten seconds respectively, and these oval light clusters with long and slender tails were like crisscrossing meteors, passing through 200 meters, or even closer into the opponent's ship formation

The Marquis of Rescent watched the sinking of the battleships one after another, his eyes were blood-red, and he waved his hand vigorously and shouted, "Attack! The whole fleet is attacking, ready to fight to the death."

"It seems that the intelligence of the Southwest Army is accurate, and the Gangfei Navy fleet has reached the point of paralysis!" On the flagship of the Falcon Navy, the Falconry Admiralty Dustrunkay's ice-blue eyes were filled with a mocking cold gaze, and he said to himself, "Incompetent guy!

The firelight rose and fell, and the heat turbulence that shot out of it set off raging waves on the ocean, shaking the warships of the two armies, and under the absolute superiority, the main force of the Falcon Navy completely crushed the flagship of the Fourth Fleet of the Imperial Navy.

The flash of Thor's cannon fire tore through the gaps in the ocean, as if they were angels of death with silver wings! The warships of the flagship of the Fourth Fleet were smashed to pieces one after another under all kinds of saturated fire! The side deck of the heavy battleship Nister was smashed into a hornet's nest, and finally it was hit by the main guns of a Dragon-class battleship, which exploded into the bottom compartment below the deck of the ship, setting off a murderous flame that ruthlessly swept the entire ship, and in the blink of an eye, this giant ship became the grave of 1,214 soldiers.

White flashes erupted one after another, and the flagship of the Fourth Fleet of the Empire was like the leaves of a super typhoon, rolled up and torn apart without hindrance.

An hour after the battle began, under the sudden fierce attack, the 25 warships and 5,327 sailors of the flagship headquarters of the Fourth Fleet of the Congo and Africa Empire, together with the flagship Santiago and the fleet commander Marquis Resent, all sank to the bottom of the sea! The main force of the Falcon Navy tore a bloody hole in the defense line of the Congo Navy very violently

Marquis Ronnet, the commander of the Third Fleet, who had just received the alarm from the Fourth Fleet, frowned tightly and remained silent. His subordinates sensed his nervousness, and the air in the room seemed to condense, and some muffled chattering voices came and went

"How's the situation with the Fourth Fleet?"

"Liaison ships have been dispatched, and the current battle situation is unknown! But judging from the situation of enemy ships reported by the Fourth Fleet. I'm afraid that it is already more than auspicious!"

"Bastard, are we just going to watch the Fourth Fleet finish?"

"The situation is unknown, and attacking without permission will only make us follow in the footsteps of the Fourth Fleet!"

"Alright, no need to argue," Marquis Ronit made up his mind, "The whole fleet is ready!

"Please wait!" everyone turned their heads to look at a young officer with dark blond hair, none other than Rousseau Wandal of the Third Assault Fleet

"Rousseau Wandal, what do you think of the current state of affairs?" asked the Marquis of Ronnet, with a gloomy face

"My subordinates think that it is unwise to go to the rescue of the Fourth Fleet now," Rousseau Wandal said with a calm expression, "Judging from the report of the Fourth Fleet, it is only possible that the Northwest Navy can have such naval strength. I have fought with them before, and if it is really the Northwest Navy, the Fourth Fleet is now only afraid that it has been ......" Rousseau Wandal's voice stopped, but the meaning was already self-evident

"No way. I know the commander of the Fourth Fleet, Marquis Recente, he is a very tenacious man! He will not flinch until the last moment without fighting" Marquis Ronit explained as if he was about to shake off his anxiety: "Therefore, we must rush to the battlefield immediately to rescue the Fourth Fleet, if we can catch up." Perhaps it is possible to assault the enemy's flank. If this one is successful, it will be of great benefit to the whole battle!"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up. Rousseau Wandal gritted his teeth with a hesitant face, "Now you should immediately stabilize the defensive line and report to the base camp is the best way! We will not be the enemy of the world. ”

“...... In this case, do you want us to die and leave the Fourth Fleet at the mercy of the enemy?or, as you did with the Marquise of Ancarus, and choose to turn around and slip away while watching it sunk?" a captain stood up with great dissatisfaction, his tone full of reproach

"I repeat it again, it was a mistake! And the Marquise of Ancarus was sunk by the enemy at one time!" Rousseau Vandal had a hideous face, his face was blood-red, and his ten fingers were clenched together,

"It's all your own words, a battleship was sunk in one blow, and even someone believes it!" the fleet admiral pouted in disdain

"That's enough, there's no time for you to quarrel here!" Marquis Ronit interrupted the two and glanced at the vast sponge in the distance, "It's too late to rush now, it's a vast ocean after all." "This is actually what Marquis Ronit thinks in his heart,

"No matter what the real situation is, we can't ignore the safety of our allies!" Marquis Ronit said in a deep tone, Rousseau Wandal's eyes quickly became gloomy, the Fourth Fleet is finished, the Third Fleet has also followed in the footsteps of the Fourth Fleet, and now only the Second Fleet and the Fifth Fleet of the Empire are left behind in the base camp, in this case, they will all become victims of the enemy's destruction one by one, and none of them will survive"

"Rousseau Wandal's fleet has returned to the base camp to report the news! and inform His Excellency Roland Lefebble of our fleet's attack to support the Fourth Fleet," Marquis Ronit picked up the trench coat on his chair and looked at Rousseau Wandal, who was in a daze

"Hey...... Then the subordinate retired."

Rousseau Wandal knew that it was useless to say anything, and after saluting, he turned around and left the conference room.

The menacing attack of the Northwest Navy was really beyond his expectations, and with a stormy offensive, it broke the defense of the Fourth Fleet in one fell swoop, hooked the Third Fleet, and even attracted the other four fleets left behind in the base camp.

With such an arrogant attack, what does the other party want to do?

Rousseau Wandal looked at the undulating sea below the side of the ship, and faintly felt that something was wrong, if the other party was seeking a naval decisive battle, he should not be so stupid to expose all his strength prematurely,

"Unless the other party does it on purpose"

Rousseau Wandal smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, how could it be possible, who would do this, you must know that the Gangfei Empire attacked the southwest this time, mobilized two-thirds of the domestic navy, the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth naval fleets, the total number of warships was 350, and the number of sailors was 25,000 people, which was definitely the largest in the history, unless the other party was crazy, it would be so arrogant to adopt break-in tactics.
