I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Chapter 777 The situation is serious, take the initiative to attack

Planck knew that.

If the Dragon Kingdom Navy goes to attack the island of Cyprus, that's fine.

If it is not to attack Cyprus, but to go directly to the city of Rome.

Then trouble!
Thinking of this, he didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly led a few remaining sailors towards the direction of Alexandria.

A group of people walked along the coastline, and before they reached the city of Alexandria, they found several Egyptian fishermen resting by the sea.

Planck didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, he dropped a few gold coins and took their fishing boat over.

Then he took a few of his men and headed towards Cyprus Island.

Fortunately, along the way, Planck did not encounter any Eastern warships, and the wind direction was suitable.

In less than a day and a night, he successfully arrived in Cyprus.

"Where is Commander Comasone?"

As soon as Planck stepped onto the pier, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Reporting to my lord, the chief is in the barracks."

asked a Roman soldier.

Planck heaved a sigh of relief, and trotted all the way to the barracks next to the pier.

Inside the military camp.

Comasson looked at Planck in front of him, and couldn't help frowning,

"Didn't I ask you to support Musius, why did you come back so soon?"

"Sir, we encountered warships from the East, and the five warships I brought were all destroyed."

Planck said dejectedly.

"What? How many warships do the Easterners have?"

Comasone's face became serious.

They have fought with the Parthians on land for so many years, and they never thought that the Easterners would have a navy.

Planck hesitated for a moment, then raised a finger.

"A hundred ships?"

Comasone was taken aback.

Plank shook his head.

"Could it be a thousand ships?"

Comasone's heart sank, if the Orientals had a thousand warships, it would be troublesome.

"My lord, they only have... one ship."

Plank sighed.

"What, a ship?"

Comasone was taken aback, and couldn't believe it.

"Sunk all five of your warships?"

Although this matter is a great shame, Planck still nodded honestly,

"The Dragon Kingdom warship is huge, three times the size of a five-reel warship!"

"It is even equipped with some kind of powerful long-range weapon. Before we can get close, it sank two warships of our army!"

"And their warships are so fast that we have no time to dodge."

Comasone would never believe this if it came from someone else.

But Planck is his right-hand man, and he has won his trust, otherwise he would not have sent Planck to support Mucius.

It's just that the Dragon Kingdom warship that he said from his mouth is really hard for Comasone to believe.

After all, the five-recker warship is already the largest and best-performing warship around the Mediterranean Sea!
Comasson couldn't believe it, and suddenly he seemed to remember something,
"Where are the Mucius?"

"He died by the arms of the Orientals."

Planck said sadly,
"And his army was almost wiped out."

Comasone gasped!
As the governor of Egypt, Musius, who controlled a huge province, just died like this?
His death also means... the whole of Egypt will fall into the hands of the Easterners!
The Roman Empire has just dispatched troops and has accumulated a large number of troops in the Thrace region on the Eastern Front.

But they did not expect that the Easterners would attack Egypt.

It can be said that the house is leaking and it rains all night!

While Comasson was thinking about the current situation, Planck said cautiously,

"Sir, after the Easterners captured the fortress at the Suez Canal, their navy sailed smoothly from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean."

"In case they turn around and attack Rome directly..."

After hearing this, Comasone's complexion changed drastically!

Now the main force of the Roman army is concentrated on the Eastern Front, and the interior of the empire is extremely empty!

If it is really as Planck said, then it will be troublesome!
"In your opinion, what should we do?"

Cormazon looked serious.

"Sir, things might not be that bad."

Planck explained,

"I have observed the fleet of the Easterners. Although their warships are superior in performance, they are not many in number, less than five hundred."

"And our navy has a full two thousand ships, all equipped with crow drawbridges."

"As long as we get close to the warships of the Easterners and start a side-to-side battle with them, there is a chance of winning!"

Koma loosened his frown,
"You mean...to take the initiative to fight with them?"

"Yes!"

Planck nodded heavily,
"Only by actively seeking to fight and defeating them can the current situation be reversed."

Komasson stood up slowly, silently looking at the map beside him.

It's easy to fight against the Orientals, but in case of defeat, the Mediterranean Sea will become the back garden of the Orientals!

But if they do not take the initiative to seek an attack, the Easterners can either choose to go directly to the city of Rome, or they can also follow the coastline and cooperate with the Parthians on the eastern front to attack Thrace.

The initiative on the battlefield is controlled by the Orientals.

If you want to change from passive to active, there is only one way!

While Comasone was considering the battle situation, a Roman soldier hurried in from the door.

"Sir, a warship responsible for reconnaissance has returned, and the soldiers on board have found traces of the Easterners."

Cormazon and Planck were inspired.

"Where did you find it?"

"Sir, they found an oriental fleet on the sea west of Damascus, the number is at least three hundred!"

replied the soldier.

The two looked at each other.

It seems that this is the main naval force of the Orientals.

"Sir, this is the opportunity!"

Plank said eagerly.

Comasson played with the quill in his hand. After thinking for a long time, he finally nodded heavily.
"Okay, let's go!"

Following his order, the Roman Empire Navy docked at the port of Cyprus quickly began to move.

One after another, warships sailed out of the port and stayed on the sea.

After the flagship of Comasson and Planck set off, all the warships also followed with full power.

Two thousand warships set off at the same time, and the sails covered the sky and the sun for a while, and the momentum was extremely huge!
Cyprus is not too far from Damascus, and with smooth sailing, Comasson led the navy to approach Damascus in less than two hours.

"Planck, you go back to your ship and take command of the Second Fleet."

Comasson ordered.

"As ordered, sir."

Just as Planck was about to leave in a small boat, he heard a sailor in charge of observation pointing to the sea not far away and shouting,
"Sir, there is a situation!"

Cormazon and Planck were taken aback for a moment, then raised their eyes and looked into the distance.

I saw a puff of wolf smoke rising quietly on the sea not far ahead.
