842 Boiling Sea (7)
February 21 is a day destined to go down in history. On this day, two very important things were born, both of which had a heavy impact on future generations.
The war on the continent of Ikadivar to determine who was the final victor has also become more confusing because of these two events.
The boundary between land and sea was broken in this war, and in the eyes of the monarchs of both sides, the existence of the sea that was originally regarded as a natural danger became the smooth road of the enemy's traverse, life and death, sneak attack and counter-sneak attack, and the boiling sea replaced the land of fierce battle for the first time, and became the focus of life and death between the two sides
On this day, February 21, 1231 in the Ikadivar calendar, the new Nord general Crimson Erdo, who was later known as one of the falcon's loyal dogs, came to the edge of Zhiwa Cheze with his 40,000 troops.
Looking at Fort Bruga under the golden morning sun, Crimson Erdo began his painful journey to attack the southern town of the Falcon Dynasty with extremely complicated feelings. He was originally the first choice to be named by King Nord to attack Dyrens, but because of the words of his friend Noras, Crimson Ildo chose a completely different path, as a cover for the main attack on Dyrens's flank, and this decision would change the trajectory of his life, and even the entire family behind him
On the Nord side, the 100,000 Nord army, which was encircling Dyrens, thought that the overall situation had been decided, and the 100,000 Nord army that was encircling Dyrens did not know that the only main fleet left in the country had just been destroyed, and the counterattack from the sea would have a heavy impact on the fate of the entire Nord Kingdom
Although the new main warship Storm Sea Serpent is strong, but the materials are cherished, it is not easy to build, in just a few months, only 6 ships were built and launched, each of which is a kind of combat power for the Nord Navy, one as the flagship of the Morlie fleet, which was sunk by the Dustrenkai fleet in the Ferran Island Chain ・ As the main force to recapture the Ferran Island Chain, it was stationed for a long time after occupying the Ferran Island Chain, and the last 3 ships, 2 ships were sunk in yesterday's fierce battle ・Only one is the strongest force sitting in the naval base camp,
Because of the need to encircle Dylans, the Nord navy's already limited forces were almost evacuated, and Maudendoro's fleet, which yesterday encountered the Dustrenkai fleet, was already the last force in the Nord Sea that could stop the Falcon fleet, as it turned out. Naval warfare is not a war that can be reversed by one or two powerful warships, and once a powerful warship is sunk, the shaking of the entire Nord Navy is also obvious.
On this day, with the snow-capped Roaron Mountain in the background and the sparkling Nord Sea in the face of the city of Tiha, the wind and sun are beautiful and the scenery is infinite.
Because of the perennial marine storms, Tiha Fort is almost the worst rated in every Nord city selection, and even the Tiha people themselves have to admit this helpless reality. Compared to other mountainous Nord cities,
The buildings of Tiha, which developed from a seaside town, are too shabby, and they are all gray buildings with mud mixed with stone; Thatch everywhere. The streets are also too ugly and potholed, and no one seems to have repaired them; Its equipment and facilities are also too ugly, and it is covered with thick dust; Its inhabitants were also too ugly to dress, and all of them wore featureless robes to protect them from the wind and sand.
However, Tiha doesn't look so ugly all the time, at least Tiha has a brief period of beauty in February during the winter months, which is the best time of the year for Tiha. The cold of winter is gradually gone, the scorching summer has not arrived, the climate is the most suitable, the air is also the freshest, there is no strong smell of dust, and a few raindrops are rare. As a result, the air seemed to become quieter, and visibility improved several times. ...,
Tiha at sunset has a faint layer of dark yellow, like an unfolded oil painting. Houses made of burnt dry earth mixed with rubble, and a few colored shells used for decoration. The earthy yellow walls are interspersed with a rainbow of colors. Bathed in the light of the sun, it exudes a mesmerizing beauty that slowly converges with the afterglow of the setting sun. Leaving a pale blue expanse between heaven and earth,
The Marquise of Antalina finished her afternoon and evening class, and began to let the maids tidy up their somewhat wrinkled old dresses, the long ink-colored skirt had to be re-trimmed with silver, the waist should be more compact, the color should not be too bright, but there must be a special warmth, to make people look at it, there is a kind of water hibiscus eye, as a very famous local marquise in Tiha, she held the position of etiquette instructor for noble women throughout the region,
At 7 o'clock in the evening, with the support of the maid, the Marquise of Antalina got off her carriage with a graceful posture, and immediately attracted countless hot eyes around her.
She is a noble, beautiful, mature, plump woman, elegant and decent, gentle and polite, elegant in conversation, generous in action, since she was a child by the local noble girl as her idol, because of the long-term teaching of etiquette, her eyes are sweeping, it seems that she cannot tolerate any transgression of etiquette, but at this moment, she seems to enjoy these eyes with all kinds of thoughts
Tonight in the main hall of Tiha Fort, there is an evening party that invites the great nobles of the locality, and on the place of the invitation to sign is a name that cannot be refused, Marquis Felita, Minister of the Admiralty,
This is a very important minister in the Nord high-level, this time as the head of naval operations against the Falcon Dynasty, personally sitting in the southern coastal area of Tihabao,
The arrival of the Minister of the Navy has undoubtedly detonated the enthusiasm of the nobles of the Tiha region, everyone is a clear-eyed person, and the visit of the Minister of the Navy this time is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for a thousand years, which is enough to be recorded in the history of the Tiha region
Everyone wants to talk to this Nord minister, even if it is just a gesture from afar, if it can be exchanged for a friendly smile from this big man, it will be the best, this is a sign of status, the aristocratic circle has always been cruel, which family has gained power, which family has lost power, it will not take one night, the whole Tiha will know that just one night is enough to decide the fate of many people,
"Your Excellency, the guests have arrived!" the adjutant pushed open the door of the Admiralty Felita's room, and saw the Nord minister standing in front of the window of the room.
At this time, the sky has gradually darkened, but the surrounding scenery, under the light transmitted from the hall, can still be seen very clearly, with a sad beauty under the faint vastness, the open space outside, has been parked with various family crest carriages, the front of the smoke can not hide the song and dance in the rear,
"Any news of Ellis's cruising fleet?" said Felita, coming back from the window, her frowning forehead twisted into a Sichuan character
"Not yet, I believe it should be back tonight," the adjutant replied with a cautious expression
