461 Salander's Blood (1)
"It's really tricky" The fat man sighed in his heart, but in a month, the situation in Salander had been so erosive, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked in a deep voice, "Who will inherit the position of the Grand Duke now?"
"Marquis Nilai, the only daughter of the Grand Duke of Kulai," the female warrior said calmly
"Oh, where is she?" the fat man frowned, the port of Lazar is the closest port to Vekia in the north of Salander, plus Dylans's unique clipper, within 2 days, it is enough to transport 5,000 elites to Salander, and the gains and losses here are crucial to the subsequent development of the strategy,
"Right in front of you" The female warrior looked up, staring at the turquoise sky overhead
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to be like this" The fat man looked at the Marquis with a resolute expression on his face, and said apologetically, "As far as I know, the Salander fleet has always been the most powerful, how did it end up like this"
Marquis Nilai's eyes were full of regret, and she bit her lip and said, "It's a long story, since my Salande ancestors migrated to this continent hundreds of years ago, we have been committed to the study of navigation, and my Salander's navy is definitely the strongest in the continent, even the Hulin and Dyrens in the opposite strait, and they are by no means the opponents of our fleet,"
"But it is precisely because of this that our defeat today" The female warrior looked sad and indignant, looked at the vast sea in the distance, and said in a cold tone, "Our defeat in the south is because the main fleet controlling the inland sea is overconfident and has been exploited by the enemy.
Not only were more than 30 of the most warships burned, but even the six largest shipyards were lost, so these aliens drove our warships to run rampant in the open seas, and the giant warships you sank just now were the most built Fury Wind-class warships in our country."
"No wonder, I see that although those aliens have very good warships, they don't even understand the most basic naval battles, it turns out that this is the reason" The fat man had a deep understanding, the encounter just now, even a fool could see that the alien warship, just a group of children dancing with big knives, looked very terrifying, but in fact, it collapsed after a fight
"Although these aliens have not yet learned naval warfare, it does not mean that they will never be able to learn it," Marquis Nylai said with a solemn expression, looking at the undulating sea in the distance, "once they have mastered the art of piloting warships, their fleet will be fully loaded and sail up the coast, and when the time comes, it will not be far from the destruction of our Salander."
"Raid battles like today's are their old tactics, sending warships around the strong defensive line in the central part and cutting off the rear territory from the kingdom of Kyoto,
And then a large number of soldiers were brought from the sea, and it was not the first time they had done such a thing as destroying all the living people in this area, except for our Lazar, and several other port cities, without exception, were all attacked by foreign races from the sea.
The female warrior's voice paused, and she said in a sad tone, "The Vic family, who is in charge of the northern seas, was caught off guard, and the whole clan died in the territory, if it weren't for your timely rescue this time, maybe our fate would be the same, our thousand warriors can't compete with these aliens who are good at land warfare."
Suddenly, the Salander warship leading the way in front suddenly stopped, and at some point, the fleet divided into two groups, and the combined fleet full of soldiers slowly drove into a natural inner bend, where was the military port of Lasa,
The fat man's warship, as Nilai's flagship entered the civilian port, the golden sunset lit up the sky, and the city of Lasa, located in the upper reaches of the sea, was in sight
The white seawall is in the golden rays of light, like a layer of dazzling gold edges, on the high cliffs on both sides, a huge statue, standing on the top of the mountain into the port, the huge arm straight to the sky, a dazzling light, shining down from above,
"That is the statue of our patron saint of the port of Lazar, the great Prophet Fran, and whenever I see him, I am reminded of the good old days"
The beautiful Marquis of Nilai pointed to the statue and introduced the fat man with a proud face
"At that time, we Salander people, under his guidance, in order to escape the war, crossed the dangerous vast ocean, came to this pure land full of hope, and according to the plan he formulated, we have been committed to the exhibition of navigation."
"It's a pity that the tranquility and beauty of this land has now been destroyed by those terrible outsiders, and the once rich sea has become the pasture of the invaders, and our warriors have lost nearly half of them in a month, and the next time they come back, they don't know if they will be able to resist the attack of the aliens."
The closer to the port, the more crowded the fat man is in the port, countless small boats are crowded together, when he is a hundred steps away from the port, he has to stop and wait from time to time, the fat man looks up at the castle in the distance, the flags are crooked, the soldiers guarding the wall are listless, and his heart sinks, how can such a warrior who has no fighting spirit resist the fierce aliens?
"These are the people who are on board at such a critical juncture, and if the enemy comes from the port, I'm afraid that just the chaos will be enough to break your defenses."
The fat man pointed at the port black pressure on a human head, his face was heavy and about to drip water, the situation here was worse than he expected, and even on the verge of order collapse,
In just the time he entered the port, the fat man had already seen at least a dozen small boats docking, collecting money, while slowly letting these Salanders get on board, the cries of women and children, drifting with the sea breeze, and even three merchant ships with the flag of the Vecchia Business Association, swaggering sideways on the right side of the port, making the already crowded situation even more unbearable
"Those are all refugees from nearby territories," explained an attendant officer beside the female warrior, with an embarrassed face, "I couldn't bear to let them flee everywhere, so I took them all in Lasa Harbor.
I just hope that I can take advantage of the opportunity to dock with merchant ships on the other side, so that these poor people can go to the continent on the other side of the strait to survive, I heard that the Kingdom of Vekia over there is one of the richest kingdoms on that continent, and it is also very generous to outsiders."
"This is your order" The fat man snorted indignantly, turned around, and glanced at the attendant officer with blazing eyes, it is undeniable that the attendant who followed the female warrior was also a rare beauty, with a slender body, silver chain mail clinging to her body, a pretty face like jade, and a crystal clear neck, like a proud white swan,
"Chaos before a fight, you are simply doing a disservice, if the enemy breaks through the port, the chaos alone will destroy the entire city"
Under the eyes of the fat man like a knife, the waitress trembled slightly,
The Marquis Nylai hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of her, "Ruby is my most relied on assistant, one of the few people in the north who has learned territorial management, if it weren't for Ruby's calm command this time, our fleet might have been overwhelmed by the Normans long ago, and it would be impossible to hold out until reinforcements arrived."
Just when the two sides were embarrassed, the warship approached the harbor, and suddenly, a hoof sound came from the direction of the port street, and the sound of crying and colliding arose
The fat man looked at the place where the voice came from in amazement, and saw more than a dozen horsemen galloping out of the city, and they forced their way forward in the crowd, causing a little chaos
The young knight who took the lead was burly and handsome, and he kept shouting to the crowds of the city, "Give way, give way"
The fat man and Fei Dun Lanya next to him glanced at each other, knowing that the other party was disgusted with the young knight, "Don't worry, I'm in a hurry, I'll make amends when I return to the castle" The face of the Marquis of Nilai next to him changed slightly, like the red jade next to him, he gestured and hurried away with his attendants
A moment later, the young horseman led more than a dozen of his men and met the Salander warriors who were leading the way
"Duke of Sodofer"
The Salander warrior immediately respectfully pressed his hand on his chest, and the young knight's eyes swept over with disdain, and said anxiously: "Marquis Nilai has placed me outside the city like this, does he still have the king in his eyes, this time I will go back, I will definitely tell the king about this matter truthfully."
"Marquis Nilai has already disembarked early, presumably preparing to welcome your lordship," one of the leading captains of Salander said with a strange expression
"That's pretty much it"
The young knight's face relaxed, and he began to pay attention to the others, his eyes swept over the fat man first, and when he moved to Feidun Lanya, his eyes lit up, and he flashed with a look of amazement and shock, and the fat man couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the beauty of Feidun Lanya, in any situation, will also cause unexpected troubles
The young knight's eyes reluctantly moved from Fei Dun Lanya back to me, his expression turned cold, containing doubt, and even a hint of jealousy, and shouted, "Who is this person?"
"This is a guest of the Marquis of Nilai, a friend of the Lazar Collar, please pay attention to the words!"
In response to the young knight's questioning, all the Salander soldiers turned their heads, their fingers clenching their weapons slightly white, and their eyes were full of anger, as if they were extremely dissatisfied with the duke
"Why, do you want to oppose Kyoto's order with such an attitude?" The young knight looked at the angry eyes around him, subconsciously took a few steps back, and said with fear in his eyes, "As an envoy sent to Kyoto, I have the right to exercise the power of the lord, and every qiē here is the supreme king's majesty."
"I have no intention of slandering His Majesty," Captain Salander replied in a deep voice, bowing his head, "but I know who risked his life to save our fleet in the open sea, who is the true friend of the city of Lazar, and as for the cowards who hide behind their backs and pick up bargains, they are not even worthy to carry his shoes"
"Do you know who you're talking to?"
The young knight's face flushed, he rode on his horse, raised the whip in his hand, and with a whistling wind, he whipped towards Captain Salander below.
