1929 Spring Breeze Roll Remnant Flowers (4)
In April, the Putao region that woke up from the cold winter appeared a scene of sea and sky, the blue sky and the blue sea blended together in the distance, and the battle situation in the Putao area also presented an incomprehensible scene.
The slackness of the Gangfei people has caused the dissatisfaction of many Central European and Barro countries, which sent reinforcements to support Gangfei, and they also had to bear the consumption of their own troops every day, but the Gangfei people fought feverishly in the Putao area, returning with truckloads of wealth and food, and did not mention the friendship and gratitude of the coalition forces. No one wants to see their companions eat meat, and they haven't even tasted a mouthful of soup, and some Central European and Barro countries have asked for the withdrawal of troops from Congo and Africa, and the Congo and Africa have panicked, so the Minister of War Marcos personally came forward to meet with the envoys of various countries, and promised each country to give 200,000 gold coins to calm the anger of the countries.
This time, there were 17 Central European Barrow countries that sent troops to Gangfei, of which the strongest Kingdom of Anta sent 15,000 people, the weakest Duchy of Philia sent 1,000 people, and the total strength of the coalition army was 147,000 people, mainly to help the Congo and Africa Empire defend and fight, and Hukochili's 10,000 guards cavalry went straight to Besuka, the seat of the Gangfei court
On the other hand, the southern part of Putao is as prosperous as ever, and there is no sign of war at all.
Originally, the Central European and Barro countries predicted that hundreds of thousands of northern refugees would pour into the southern part of Putao, how could it also have an impact on the Falcon Empire's control area, and the Gangfei army just took advantage of the chaos to march and take the entire Putao in one fell swoop, but it shattered the glasses of countless people who made this assertion.
In front of hundreds of thousands of displaced people, the Falcon Empire in the southern region was so calm and unhurried, setting up registration points, arranging temporary residences, and even arranging the work of the displaced people in advance. The spies of various countries no longer know how to report to their countries the current situation in the southern part of Putao, and in fact, the Congo-African army is proud of its prowess and wanders in the north, and is also frightened by the situation in the south
"It's really an incredible arrangement! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it!" This is the report of the person in charge of the spy of the Sea Kingdom of Stellant, who is relatively neutral among the many spy personnel, and in this report that shocked the entire Sea State, this spy chief, who was originally dissatisfied with the fact that the fleet of the Sea Kingdom had just been defeated, immediately changed the direction of the wind, and rarely did not use bitter adjectives, but burst out with a trace of appreciation and thinking that was difficult to hide.
"Men are by age. Assigned to the construction projects, the women were assigned to carry out simple tasks according to whether they had children or not, and even children over the age of six were assigned to do tasks that did not require strenuous work but were effective, such as picking up discrete materials that had fallen during transportation, and washing roadside garbage at the port docks...... These jobs, these displaced people are given the so-called "work points" according to the number of jobs, and this is the latest popular buzzword in the southern Putao region, which is a measurement figure obtained according to the amount of work" The tip of the spy chief's pen dotted in the ink, and after making an explanation, he continued to describe the situation of the 300,000 Putao displaced people in the southern control area. Therefore, a qiē seems to be tight and organized, and the lazy person will be hungry because he has no work, and eventually become diligent, and the already diligent person will be after solving the problem of survival. They will choose to exchange for more useful things, and the homeless people can exchange food for food in the nearby fishing grounds according to the income from their work.
"It's mainly a variety of worthless fish, but it's the season for the return of warm currents in spring. Countless schools of fish have returned from the southern seas, and as long as there are enough fishing boats, there is no problem in supporting the needs of one million people. Originally, the fishing grounds were limited in the number of people that could be caught every day due to the limited number of people, but because of the influx of displaced people from the north, many of whom were fishermen from the north, the port docks in the entire Falcon Empire-controlled area were rushing to build fishing boats day and night a month ago, and these docks all had the ability to build large ships, and the speed of building small fishing boats was even faster, "At least a thousand fishing boats are operating on the surface of the Putao Sea day and night, which is a very terrifying scale, and the large number of marine fish caught is enough to stabilize 300,000 displaced people"
"And a month ago, the Falcon Empire seemed to have been preparing like this! I didn't see the beheading swords of the Falcon Empire slaughtering the homeless people in the outside world, nor did I see the army entering the settlement to drive out the homeless, what I saw was the food that was steadily supplied, the homeless people living in the shelters that had been prepared for a long time, the Falcon Place built the dome of the Sky Temple in the three temporary settlements of the Phnom Penh was less than fifty meters away from my room, the blue Phnom Penh was beautiful, and the sky sacrifices inside were all enthusiastic and good people, they gave free medical treatment to the homeless people and helped them adapt to their new life......
"The previous judgment was absolutely wrong, and no one who was there could know how great this inner shock was, and I believe that those displaced people also felt this deeply!"
The spy leader stopped his pen, his eyes swept over the dome of the Sky Temple in front of him, and his ears seemed to be able to hear the sound of children playing on the street, he took a deep breath slightly, and the tip of the pen fell on the leather paper, "To sum up, I also have to say that this is a premeditated miracle, or that the Falcon Empire planned this war in advance,
The Falcon Empire had gained a lot from this war, not only defeating the Sea Nation in one fell swoop, opening the door to the Inland Sea, but also taking the strategically important southern coast of Gangfei into its pocket, and now gaining such a large number of people at the other end of the Inland Sea Passage, I have a feeling that this qiē is just the beginning. The strategic shift of the top level of the maritime state may have a certain reason,
"The Sea Kingdom needs to reassess the enemy's strength, just like when the entire Central European Baro is only focused on the narrow area of Putao, so people think that the Falcon Empire in the south of Putao will eventually riot because it cannot deal with these displaced people, but they forget that the southern part of Putao is only one of the many areas of the Falcon Empire.
Behind this small and conspicuous area. is a behemoth with countless resources that can mobilize resources and a total population of nearly 100 million.
I remember that the old man of the clan always told us that the rock that emerged from the sea was only a small piece, but under the surface of the sea must be a 10,000-meter-high mountain, and we had made such a mistake before, arranging a mere 300,000 homeless people, for this huge empire, it was as easy as a huge sponge directly digesting the homeless, but for the Putao nobles who were still holding on to the north. This situation is much colder than the defeat at the Battle of Amter, because even if the war is over, it would be nice to have a tenth of those who are willing to return to the ruins of the north!
This report sent back to the Sea Country from the Putao area was setting off a tide of thinking at the top of the Sea State, when the flagship of the Imperial Fleet had just landed at the largest military port in Lisbonto, the fat man wrapped his collar tightly, and got down from the flagship with several guards, and looked in the other direction of the port, just in time to see the supreme military commander of the Imperial Putao Control District, Varisien, trotting all the way.
"Your Majesty...... 陛xià!"
Varisian came to the fat man at a speed of 100 meters sprint, out of breath, he did not receive the news of His Majesty's return to Putao, it was completely the naval side that escorted the front secretly sent him a message, almost did not dare to have any delay, and ran to leave the military meeting that was being held
"It seems that you are doing well" The fat man looked him up and down, this imperial general seemed to be doing really well, it was originally the face of the country. Now that he has a small chin and a belly, his original fierce temperament is a little richer, but it is more and more consistent with the image of the imperial general
"It's the subordinates who are too comfortable," Varisian said with an embarrassed expression
"Alright. Tell me, how many have already arrived?" the fat man waved his hand, and instead of getting into the carriage, he walked towards the port gate. He needed to get a practical idea of the current situation in Putao, and soon as hundreds of thousands of Imperial sailors would arrive, which was a lot of pressure on Putao
"The Dylans family. The Huren clan, the two fleets under the command of the Grand Duke of Nilai......" Varisian hurriedly followed, and reported the recently arrived fleet one by one, saying that the imperial fleet currently gathered in Putau has reached 1,100 ships, with more than 70,000 sailors, in order to deal with more upcoming fleets and sailors, Lisbento is already at full power, thousands of fishing boats are operating on the sea day and night, the facilities built by the displaced people are nearing completion, and the four settlements formed by more than 300,000 northern displaced people have been planned as four new cities on the periphery of Lisbento,
"It's just that Gangfei people have started to move recently, and the scouts who were originally not close to our army area have begun to appear in a dense manner!" said Varisien, frowning slightly
"Oh, you think Gangfei is going to attack?"
The fat man stopped at the corner of the street, and looked with interest at the several Salander priests walking on the other side of the street, the sky blue sacrificial robes turned out to be all women, about twenty to thirty years old, not a long pair of beautiful, but the style of the Salander woman is still there, so that the fat man invisibly remembered his amorous mentor, let the Sky Temple send people to the Putao area is the fat man's decision, he gave an order to the Sky Temple, I didn't expect the other party to send people so soon, religion has always been the best tool to appease the people,
"Although I am not sure, but at least there is such an intention, after all, our troops in Putao are only 10,000 regular troops, and the 50,000 local troops we have just recruited are all new recruits, and even the basic training has not been completed" Varisian's voice paused, "The other party is rampant in the north, driving a large number of displaced people south, it should be with the intention of letting us mess up first, and now it is not successful, it should be very close and we will lose the patience to continue waiting!"
"What about the people of the various families, there are tens of thousands of people, why don't you count them in?" asked the fat man
"This ......" Varisian's face showed embarrassment, all the forces are first-class wealthy families in the empire, but they are not so easy to command, maybe these people are silent in front of His Majesty the Falcon, and they dare not breathe, but they are not to the point where they need to sell their own face as a local magistrate,
"Well, okay, tell me who are the principals of the various families sent this time?" The fat man understood his difficulty and waved his hand, Varisien had already prepared the list and hurriedly handed it to the fat man, to say that he was not moved by these tens of thousands of people is false, the Gangfei people in the north are about to be unbearable,
To be precise, the north has been plundered, and in the face of the south, which is still as prosperous as before, the hot and hot covetous gaze of the Gangfei army can be felt in the city of Lisbonto, this is the direction of the wind of the imminent war, and the lack of troops Varisien has long taken a fancy to these tens of thousands of sailors with good combat strength.
The fat man looked at the list, his eyes flickered, the Dyrens family led the team by a family veteran he knew, Dylan Scarry, who was the cousin of the current patriarch, and it was quite decent, indicating that the Dyrens family completely obeyed the attitude of the imperial arrangement. But the Hulun leader is an unfamiliar name, Hulun Xisu,
"Who is Huren Sisu?" asked the fat man
Varisian hurriedly explained, "This Hulun Sisu is the latest young general of the Hulun clan, I heard that he is very respected by the clan, I met with him once, and he is a good ......" Varisian didn't know the ** relationship between the Falcon Majesty and the young patriarch of the Hulun clan, Hulun Feilin, so he didn't notice the fat man's increasingly cold face
"Okay, needless to say, I want to meet this Hu Lun Xisu!"
The fat man waved his hand, interrupting Varisian to continue. Leng said, "I haven't heard of this Hulun Xisu, this time the Hulun clan sent more than 10,000 people, which can be regarded as a heavy army, and it was entrusted to a person who is not familiar with the empire, as the suzerain of the Hulun clan's loyalty, I must ask, what does the Hulun clan mean!"
"Yes, this is the way to arrange it!"
Varisian's face pale for a moment. What is the situation, as one of the fat man's henchmen, he can't hear the strong chill in His Majesty's tone, but he doesn't know where this chill comes from. Did he say the wrong thing, or did this Hurensisu attract hatred too much! Don't dare to delay, Varisien himself led the way in front,
Both the Dyrens and Hullen were placed in the north-western region of Lisbonto. The harbor was filled with warships of both clans, and sailors on deck were arranging the cables, as two tribes that once ruled by the sea. Both clans directly regarded the warship as a place of residence, and the people of the two clans who came and went on the dock didn't pay much attention to the group of imperial troops who walked into the port.
Nominally speaking, the navies of the two clans can also be regarded as the offshore fleet guarding the empire's homeland, in the internal forces of the empire, the two clans are ranked last, and this time the empire issued an order for thousands of ships to enter the inland sea, and all forces are pouring their strength out, even the Maomo family, which is mainly in the northwest inland of the empire, also sent a fleet of one hundred and ten ships this time, backed by tens of millions of funds, in the face of the upcoming battle for the inland sea, the two clans chose to abandon their grievances for many years, and joined forces to go south, which itself also has the meaning of growing momentum,
In the large cabin of a huge warship, the heads of the two clans were discussing when they would be able to enter the inland sea passage.
"This is the Gibro Sea Road, the passage into the Inland Sea, and further north from here, you can get close to the southern coast of Gangfei......" spoke an old man of about fifty years old, his skin that had been blown by the sea breeze all the year round was a copper-red color, his eyes were bright, and his hand was on the chart that he had obtained from the Admiralty at a high price.
In a heavy tone, he said, "Although the empire has issued an order to open the inland sea, it has also strictly ordered that the fleets of all parties must assemble in the Putao area, because the naval battle in the inland sea has just been settled, the situation is unknown, and without the permission of the Admiralty, even if we enter without permission, we will be brutally attacked by the imperial navy, so this risk cannot be taken!"
"You should also be very clear about the strength of the Empire's front-line combat navy!"
The old man looked at the young man with ephedra hair who looked angry on the other side, and said with a sneer
"It is said that there are more than twenty Dragon-class capital ships that can only be fully loaded with 80 Thor, and the modified Dragon's Tooth II battleships have exceeded one hundred and fifty, and this time, the empire not only dispatched the first fleet with the strongest combat power, but even transferred the North Sea Fleet with extraordinary combat power to the inland sea to fight, even with the combined combat power of our two clans, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold out for an hour under its ferocious firepower!
"The empire has entered the inland sea with thousands of ships this time, and the scale is beyond imagination"
The young man on the opposite side frowned slightly, and said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone, "You can also see, the coast of the Inland Sea is a huge vertical sea from west to east, the further east it is, the farther away from the control area of the Empire, the more insecure, that is to say, with the Gibro Sea Road as the starting point, whoever can enter the Inland Sea first will be the first to seize the initiative, even if it is to establish its own support point, it is also the closest to the Imperial fleet, if you really wait for the order of the Admiralty, it will be difficult to gain an advantage among the many forces!" So no matter what, we must get ahead of them and enter the inland sea!"
"How to enter? The Imperial Navy has blocked the Gibro Seaway, unless ......" The old man's voice paused, and he glanced at the young man opposite,
The young man is none other than the commander of the Hulun tribe, Hu Lun Xisu, a young general who has risen rapidly in the Hulun tribe in the past two years.
And the old man is Dylan Scarry, the head of the Dylan Navy,
The pace of the empire is expanding rapidly, and the development of the Dyrens and Huluns is obviously not keeping up, so both tribes attach great importance to this opportunity.
"Unless what?" Hulensisu's eyes lit up, and he raised his head and asked, "Bang bang" A knock on the door from outside interrupted the conversation between the two "Commander, someone sent this!" A fleet adjutant looked nervous and pushed open the door, reported to Dylan Scari inside, walked to his side, stretched out his palm,
Durlan Scari lowered his head curiously, and suddenly felt a chill rush to his head, only to see a black falcon ring in the palm of the adjutant's hand.
I can't tell what kind of ring it is, but the black is shiny, like a dark luster, the black falcon carving is simple, and the image of the wings and head is lifelike, "Where are the people!"
The old Dylan Scarry's face changed greatly, and he stood up suddenly, and Hurensisu, who saw this scene, was taken aback, (to be continued......)
