The end of the military era

Longella's performance in that naval battle was even worse.

If it weren't for the navies of the three countries who were preparing to unite to suppress the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires, Longla would never have come to Fengsha Island.

Saveye immediately said: "General Chevas, General Longella, let's go to the meeting room next, and discuss how to jointly suppress the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empire!"

In the meeting room, Chevas first asked Saveye and Longella: "I wonder if your two countries have found out how many battleships and battlecruisers with full main guns were owned by the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empire?"

Saweiye said in a deep voice: "The security of Crescent Island is very strict, and it is impossible to detect the situation inside.

However, according to our statistics in other ports of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires, the total number of all main gun battleships and battlecruisers in the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empire is definitely more than 34 ships. "

Longella nodded and said: "We also counted the data of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires in other ports, and found 23 battleships with full main guns alone, and 12 different battlecruisers.

This adds up to 35 ships, and there must be undiscovered all-main-gun battleships and battlecruisers in Crescent Island.

To be honest, I still feel a little weird up to now. Where did the Zhou family in Ganyang City get so many battleships and battlecruisers with full main guns? "

Xie Vas said in a deep voice: "Our Golden Lion Empire's intelligence system has spent a lot of time, manpower and material resources, but we have never been able to find out the origins of so many battleships and battlecruisers in the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires.

But no matter where these all-main-gun battleships and battlecruisers come from, we must not let this human fleet affect the ocean order of the new world. "

Saveye continued: "Our Navy Department of the Red Tiger Empire has promised me that if necessary, the Navy Department will transfer more battleships to join our Fifth Fleet.

At the same time, the Sixth Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Red Tiger Empire stationed on Yumen Island can also assist the Fifth Fleet to take all necessary suppression measures against the southwestern coastal defense fleet of the Han and Tang Empire, even including war. "

Longella also said: "Although our Silver Wolf Empire is in war with the Flying Leopard Empire, most of the capital ships of the Third Fleet of the Royal Navy of our Silver Wolf Empire are still staying on Pusha Island.

If your two fleets are going to deal with the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires, we, the Third Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire, are willing to do our best to cooperate. "

Soon the three fleet commanders agreed to establish a joint command of the three navies, with Xievas, the commander of the Eighth Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Golden Lion Empire, as the commander-in-chief of the joint command.

The other two, as well as Hisoka, the commander of the Sixth Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Red Tiger Empire, served as the deputy commander of the joint command.

However, this alliance of the navies of the three countries does not involve any treaties such as allies. This alliance of the navies of the three countries is only aimed at the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires.

The four fleets of the three countries will still be stationed on their respective islands. If necessary, the main forces of the four fleets will be gathered together immediately.

However, on the issue of whether to launch a war against the southwestern coastal defense fleet of the Han and Tang Empires, the three fleet commanders were relatively conservative.

According to the estimates of the three fleet commanders, the total number of all main gun battleships and battlecruisers in the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empire is likely to be more than 50 ships.

With such a powerful sea force, even if the four fleets of the three countries gather together to completely defeat this fleet, the four fleets of the three countries will inevitably have to pay a considerable price.

The admiralties of the three orc nations do not want to lose too much power of their own navies on this human naval fleet.

Therefore, the three fleet commanders only agreed to jointly defend the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires, and did not intend to declare war.

It may be to warn the Zhou family of Ganyang that the three orc countries' four fleets are united. The three orc countries are very high-profile, and the newspapers of the three orc countries have made large-scale reports on this matter.

Although Zhou Rui had been prepared in his heart, he still felt the pressure in his heart increase when he learned that the navies of the Golden Lion Empire, the Scarlet Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire were really united to defend against the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet. Not a lot.

The Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet is required to be ready for war with the navies of the three orc nations at any time.

1Chapter 16 Dilemma

On July 1538, 7, the Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire and the Navy of the Flying Leopard Empire broke out in an unprecedented naval battle in the waters near Bara Island of the Silver Wolf Empire.

Bara Island is a large island with an area of ​​about 5000 square kilometers. Originally, Bara Island was occupied by the Flying Leopard Empire.

The last time a war broke out between the Silver Wolf Empire and the Flying Leopard Empire, the armies of the two countries fought for Bara Island, and the combined casualties exceeded one million. In the end, Bara Island was snatched by the Silver Wolf Empire abruptly.

The reason why the Silver Wolf Empire and the Flying Leopard Empire competed for Bara Island at such a high price was that apart from the important strategic location of Bara Island, the gold mine on the island with a gold reserve of up to 5 tons was the reason the two countries competed. The key to Barra Island.

Due to Zhou Rui's deliberate concealment, the Pingluan gold mine with a gold reserve of more than 6 tons in Guannan Township has not been known to the world until now.

Therefore, this gold mine on Bara Island is still the super gold mine with the fourth largest gold reserves in the world, and the ranking has not been replaced by the Pingluan Gold Mine.

1吨黄金可以做出2万枚金币，也就相当于20万银币，那么5万吨黄金就相当于是100亿银币。

Of course, the Flying Leopard Empire hopes to regain such a world-class gold mine, so it plans to take the opportunity of another war with the Silver Wolf Empire to snatch Bara Island back from the Silver Wolf Empire.

In this naval battle on Bara Island, the Flying Leopard Empire aimed to seize the sea dominance in the waters near Bara Island, so as to help the army of the Flying Leopard Empire clear the obstacles to landing on Bara Island.

此战飞豹帝国一共聚集了32艘全主炮战列舰、38艘全钢制战列舰、46艘大型装甲巡洋舰、78艘轻巡洋舰和102艘驱逐舰。

银狼帝国皇家海军也聚集了29艘全主炮战列舰、40艘全钢制战列舰、38艘大型装甲巡洋舰、67艘轻巡洋舰和89艘驱逐舰。

In addition, because the battlefield of the naval battle was close to Bara Island, the Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire also dispatched more than 100 torpedo boats to cooperate in the battle.

The naval battle on Bara Island lasted for a full day and night. In the end, both sides suffered heavy casualties. Combined, the navies of the two countries sank 18 battleships with full main guns alone, of which 8 were sunk by the Flying Leopard Empire, and the silver battleships were sunk. Wolf Empire was sunk with 10 ships.

In general, the Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire lost more in the Battle of Bara Island than the Royal Navy of the Flying Leopard Empire, but the Royal Navy of the Flying Leopard Empire did not achieve its desired goal through the Battle of Bara Island.

The sea domination of the waters near Bara Island is still controlled by the Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire.

In a meeting room of the Governor's Mansion of Silver Light City of the Silver Wolf Empire, Governor Igna asked the Vice Minister of the Navy Yegor in a deep voice: "Has the loss of the naval battle on Bara Island been calculated?"

Yegor said sadly: "Your Excellency, the statistics have been calculated.

第一舰队和第二舰队加起来，总计沉没了10艘全主炮战列舰、13艘全钢制战列舰、16艘大型装甲巡洋舰、21艘轻巡洋舰、28艘驱逐舰和58艘鱼雷艇。

In addition, there are 2 all-steel battleships, 3 large armored cruisers, and 3 light cruisers. Although they finally withdrew to the port of Bara Island, the injuries of these 8 battleships were very serious, and basically they were no longer worth repairing. "

"What about the casualties?"

"The total number of dead and missing is 23210, and there are more than 4000 wounded."

Governor Igna nodded slightly, "Although the two main fleets of the Royal Navy suffered heavy losses in the naval battle of Bara Island, they still managed to defend the sea dominance of Bara Island.

I have asked His Majesty for instructions to transfer dozens of warships from the First Fleet to the Spirit Race World, and then withdraw them to the New World.

The Flying Leopard Empire's ambitions for Bara Island will never be extinguished, and the Royal Navy must prepare for the second naval battle of Bara Island.

When necessary, a group of warships can also be withdrawn from the Third Fleet.

Now the Third Fleet has formed a naval joint command for the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires with the Eighth Fleet of the Golden Lion Empire Navy and the Fifth Fleet of the Red Tiger Empire Navy.

Even if a group of warships are transferred back from the Third Fleet, the safety of Pusa Island can be guaranteed. "

Vice Minister of the Navy Yegor nodded, "Your Excellency, rest assured, our Royal Navy will definitely guard the safety of Bara Island to the death."

Governor Igna immediately turned his head and asked Luca, the Deputy Secretary of the War Department: "How is the preparation of the Royal Army on Barra Island?"

Luca said: "Governor, currently our Royal Navy is on Barra Island, with the No.19 Army and 6 independent divisions, and 30 security regiments, with a total strength of about 26.

The fortifications on Bara Island have basically been completed. "

The security force of the Silver Wolf Empire is made up of wolves and dogs as officers, and humans as soldiers. The largest organization is at the regiment level, and each security regiment has about 3000 people.
