787 Sea Breeze (5)
Tiha, an important and most precipitous fortress on the southern coast of Nord,
This magnificent structure stands on a high mountain ridge at the end of Mount Morisgro, towering into the sky, staring at every inch of land for more than 100 miles nearby. (Novel.com!. a.)
In the relatively gentle coastal area, the height of Tiha determines its important position, especially the port of Tiha in the Tiha region, which is the base camp of the Nord navy
From the very beginning of its establishment, Tiha was determined to be the absolute focus of war on the Nord Sea coast, leaving thousands or even tens of thousands of corpses under the eleven-meter-high walls of Tiha.
This is the military port where the First Fleet of the Nord Navy is located, and it is also the station of the Third Army in the South, and the whole dense row of barracks derives from the cape to the slope in front of the fortress, and outside the wooden fence is a large area of villages belonging to the fortress, and it can be seen from the slanted thatch at the top of the village that these villages are still very backward, and on the sparse fishing net racks of fishermen hanging on the sparse sand of the waves,
On the coast near the eastern cliff, more than 60 warships, large and small, of the Nord First Fleet were docked.
Their bare masts were like dense forests, and the huge hulls of the ships next to each other collided from time to time, and the huge waves rolled and crashed against the layers of ship's sides, making a squeaking sound,
"To be honest, this winter came too early! It's really not a good thing for our newly formed navy."
The commander of the Nord Navy's First Fleet, the Marquis of Mosa Langkos, held a glass of fuchsia rum in his hand, and looked out the window with a somewhat bored look.
"Your Excellency Mosa Langkos is not too worried, under such waves, I believe that the Falcon Navy in the southern strait should not go to sea!"
Opposite him sat a middle-aged man dressed in the costume of a regimental commander, with a delicate golden collar badge with several star horns, this middle-aged man was the commander of the Second Southern Legion, Gomohan,
"Only by knowing yourself correctly can you recognize the strength of your opponent!" said the Marquis of Mosa Langkos smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, took a sip of the rum in his hand, and shook his head helplessly
"Compared with the experienced Falcon Navy, our Navy can be regarded as just starting! What we can't do doesn't mean that the Falcon Navy can't do it either!"
Mosa Langkos's remarks made Gomohan's pupils on the other side constrict, and he said with a surprised expression, "Do you think that the Falcon Navy will go to sea in such a bad condition, this is absolutely not impossible, unless the commander of the other side is crazy!"
"That's exactly what I'm worried about!" said the Marquis of Mosalaoncos with a wry smile on his lips, his fingers gently turning the wine glass in his hand, and watching the purple wine in the water glass spin intently, with a solemn expression
"Our greatest enemy is not the navy of the Falcon Empire, but the familiar and strange sea in front of us, our ancestors came from the sea, but we have never really understood the nature of the sea
No one ever imagined that this vast sea would one day become a battlefield that would decide the fate of the kingdom, and the cruel fact of the defeat of the Salanders on the sea has proven that those who ignore the sea are doomed to be losers, and any enemy of the Falcon Dynasty may be hit hard from the sea
The mighty Falcon Navy has mastered the ability to teleport tens of thousands of well-equipped troops anytime and anywhere, that is, they can find a sortie point along the long coastline at will, and easily tear a gap in our weak rear.
and even against the river, crossing all the blockade lines, and striking a fatal blow at the heart of the kingdom,
Such a crazy strategic idea, who would have thought except a madman! Compared with it, braving the danger of a storm just to find a front-line fighter to defeat the enemy seems too ordinary"...,
"Do you suspect that the Falcon Navy will take advantage of the storm to sneak attack?"
The analysis of the Marquis of Mosalaoncos made Gomohan's face look a little ugly, he got up from his seat, looking a little dazed, he was a traditional army general, and it was not an easy task for him to suddenly understand a new battlefield
But one thing Gomohan knew, that is, if it was true, as the Marquis of Mossaloncos analyzed, the Falcon Navy braved the storm, then the first strategic point they wanted to attack was definitely Tiha, which they were stationing.
"Then you navy can't do anything?" Gomohan looked at the Marquis of Mosa Langkos with sparkling eyes
"There's basically no way!" the Marquis of Mosa Langkos also spread his hand helplessly, turned his gaze to the sea in the distance, and said slowly in a bitter voice, " This storm completely disrupted our cruising plans, in the new battlefield of the ocean, we are all a group of novices, and the Falcon Navy has already completed the transition, they can now rely on their rich experience, to complete our impossible strategic plan, the two sides are on an unequal platform from the beginning, at this point, you have to admire the foresight of the Vechia Falcon, this time, he has taken the lead again!"
"What do you mean by the Impossible Strategic Plan?" Gomohan froze, not knowing what the Marquis of Mosaroncos was referring to
"I don't know, but I just feel that the cunning Falcon Navy shouldn't miss such a good opportunity!" the Marquis of Mosaroncos sighed inexplicably, and looked at the blue sea in the distance outside the ship,
The rough sea surface undulates from time to time with bursts of white lines, and the sky in the distance seems to merge with the sea surface into one place, like an extension of the continent in front of you, under this majestic beauty, is the battle between the iron and blood of the two kingdoms, and the sea has become an extension of the land,
And he didn't know that just 30 nautical miles away, out of sight, on the island chain of the arc-like Ferran, the roar of the Dragon-class battleship, the main battleship of the Falcon Navy, was roaring
"You, it's still like that, no wonder even your subordinates despise you!" Hearing that the analysis just now was completely the unwarranted speculation of the Marquis of Mosa Langcos, Gomohan next to him shook his head with a smile,
He said this because the subordinates of the Marquis of Mossaloncos called the Marquis of Mossaloncos "Gora", which means white tiger in Norde!
The skin of the Marquis of Mosalalangkos, who has the title of white tiger, is much whiter than that of ordinary people, his forehead can almost be said to have no eyebrows, the cheekbones on both sides are like water chestnuts on a castle, giving people a sense of ability and certainty, a pair of eyes are small, but very sharp, like arrows aimed at some invisible target in the distance, but in an instant they turn to shoot at something near
The warships of the Nord First Fleet under his command have been docked here for more than half a month, and now it is the most unstable winter on the sea, and the huge waves are enough to swallow most of the ships going to sea, but what worries him the most is the slackness of the naval soldiers, and the storm has temporarily put the naval warships' plans to go to sea on hold, which is quite a bad thing for the Nord Navy that has just been formed for only 2 months.
Most of the sailors recruited this time are from the infantry corps, and many of the soldiers have just boarded the ship, which is completely different from the boats in the river.
What these soldiers need most now is to go to sea for training, so that they can learn the skills of maneuvering the warship in the fight against the waves, instead of staying in the barracks to pass the boring time...,
"Your Excellency. At this moment, the door of the hall was pushed open by the guards from the outside, and an officer covered in water, supported by two guards, entered the hall from the outside, and his weak body dragged an obvious water mark on the ground.
Mosa Langkos recognized this officer as an officer of the Second Fleet, named Bergstein, who was the adjutant of the Second Fleet Commander Molie, and the Marquis of Mosa Langkos and Gomohan next to him looked at each other very tacitly, and both sides saw the horror in each other's eyes.
"I'm Mosa Langkos of the First Fleet, tell me what's wrong, what's wrong with you!" the Marquis of Mosa Langkos stepped forward with an anxious expression, and grabbed Bergstein's crumbling body, judging from the clothes that were still dripping with seawater on the other party's body, and the traces of algae all over his body, it could be seen that this officer must have experienced a very terrible thing
"Your Excellency is Lord Mosa Langkos of the First Fleet!" the officer regained his spirit and a hint of light on his pale face. He tightly grasped the thick knuckled hand of Mosa Langkos, and said with all his strength, "Quick, please send a fleet to rescue the second fleet immediately, the Falcon Navy has raided Ferran." We're all stuck in the military port...... Quick, go to the rescue...... Otherwise, the Second Fleet would cease to ......exist."
Perhaps it was because he was too excited, or perhaps because he saw Mosaroncos, the officer's willpower was finally unable to continue to support it
The officer's voice, who had risked his life, grew quieter and quieter, and before he could finish his sentence, he fainted, and Mosa Langkos hurriedly had him helped him down, and ordered the best doctor to be found at once
Sending off the officer, Mosa Langkos hurried to the wall behind him, his fingers sliding over the Od chart on the wall, and finally settled on a point,
"Second Fleet?" Mosalaonkos's face suddenly turned ugly
"What's the matter?" Gomohan asked with some surprise, "The Ferry Island Chain is only 50 miles away from here, if you set off now, it can be reached in 3 hours at most, what are you hesitating here? If you feel that the troops are insufficient, I can allocate 5,000 soldiers to board your warship!"
"No, I think the Falcon fleet raiding Ferran is more like a decoy to lure us!
