The end of the military era

The 6 Mozi-class battleships with full main guns and the remaining 2 Shunzi-class battlecruisers suffered injuries to varying degrees, but fortunately they were not seriously injured.

In this battle, a total of 1123 officers and soldiers of our Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet were killed, and more than 400 officers and soldiers were injured.

目前可以确认的是，击沉了银狼帝国海军3艘全主炮战列舰、5艘全钢制战列舰、2艘大型装甲巡洋舰、3艘轻巡洋舰和3艘驱逐舰。

And also severely damaged many warships of the opponent. Considering the location of Niujiao Bay, the escort fleet did not launch a large-scale pursuit when the Silver Wolf Empire Navy retreated. "

Although after Yerk led another interception fleet of the Silver Wolf Empire Navy to join the battlefield, the warships of the Silver Wolf Empire Navy had a very large advantage in number.

However, the escort fleet, relying on six thick-skinned "Mo"-class battleships with full main guns, forcibly disabled the two intercepting fleets of the Silver Wolf Imperial Navy.

If it wasn't for Pegg, the deputy commander of the Second Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire, who saw that the escort fleet was too difficult to attack, and decisively issued an order to retreat, perhaps the losses of the two intercepting fleets of the Imperial Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire would have been even greater.

"What happened to the 4 army officers and soldiers on the transport fleet?"

"All have landed from the small port in the east of the Bull Empire, and all the materials loaded by the transport fleet have also been unloaded.

The 4 army officers and soldiers and those supplies will soon set off for the Bauhinia Province of the Silver Wolf Empire.

The escort fleet and transport fleet should have started returning by this time. "

"How did the Bull Empire react to this?"

"When the Niujiao Bay naval battle broke out, several warships of the Barbarian Empire Navy came to watch the battle near the battlefield sea area.

However, the Barbarian Empire still did not take any measures after that, as if it still tacitly allowed us to send supplies and soldiers to the southern part of the Bauhinia Province of the Silver Wolf Empire through the small port of the Barbarian Empire. "

Zhou Rui smiled slightly, "As long as we don't transport supplies and soldiers to the bull column of the rebel army, the Bull Empire will never destroy our transportation channel. The Bull Empire can't wait for the Silver Wolf Empire to be in more trouble. .”

Song Limin hesitated for a moment and said, "Commander, the navy of the Silver Wolf Empire has suffered a disadvantage this time. I'm afraid the scale of the intercepting fleet dispatched next may be even larger."

"Then send more warships to join the escort, and the support for the Silver Wolf Column cannot be interrupted. Judging from the current situation, the Silver Wolf Column can definitely create a big scene in the territory of the Silver Wolf Empire!"

Today is December 1539th, 12, Tianyuan. Although the encirclement and annihilation campaign against the Silver Wolf Empire's advance and suppression troops lasted only two days, it has already come to an end.

As for the Silver Wolf Empire, they did not expect that the human rebels would gather such a powerful force, and their fighting power was so fierce that it was shocking.

The besieged attacking and suppressing troops had to have a total of 28 capable soldiers. As a result, facing the silver wolf column with superior firepower, although the wolf officers and soldiers of the various departments of the attacking and suppressing army fought bravely, they were still not enough to resist the silver wolf column. fierce offensive.

The No. 16 Army Commander Jisla and the No. 20 Second Army Commander Folko, who were in charge of commanding this army, had to send one letter after another for help to the Army Department of the Silver Wolf Empire.

It's a pity that several routes of reinforcements from the Silver Wolf Imperial Army in the Bauhinia Province were blocked by the blocking troops sent by the Silver Wolf Column.

After two days of fierce fighting, the 4 infantry divisions and 6 independent divisions of the Silver Wolf Empire's offensive troops have basically been wiped out.

The No.16 Army and the No.20 Second Army combined, there may be only more than [-] wolf officers and soldiers who can continue to fight, and they are compressed in an area of ​​less than four square kilometers.

After Song Limin had breakfast with Zhou Rui, he and Zhou Rui began to discuss some things about Ganyang Shipyard's construction of the first battleship with all main guns.

At this time, Hu Er walked in with a serious face, "Marshal, Young Madam was attacked in front of the main gate of Zhou's Bank just now."

"What? Attack? Is Yiqiu injured?"

"Don't worry, Commander, because Niu Heng and Niu Zhang protected in time, the young lady was only frightened, but not injured, while Niu Heng and Niu Zhang suffered some minor injuries.

In addition, the young lady insisted on staying at the headquarters of Zhou's Bank to handle the bank's official affairs. "

"Old Song, we will talk about the construction of the first battleship with full main guns at Ganyang Shipyard later. I have to go to the headquarters of Zhou's Bank."

"Master, I'll go with you."

When Zhou Rui saw with his own eyes that Liu Yiqiu was not injured, he let go of his nervousness, "Yiqiu, how are you? Are you scared?"

Liu Yiqiu said with lingering fear: "Husband, thanks to Niu Heng and Niu Zhang who stood in front of me and blocked the bullet for me, otherwise Husband would never see me again.

Who is going to kill me? "

Zhou Rui gritted his teeth and said: "No matter who it is, even if Ganyang City is turned over, the murderer must be found out!"

In a private house in Ganyang City, a man and a woman were arguing about something.

If Zhou Rui saw this man and a woman, he would be shocked. The man was Cui Tao, the eldest son of the original Cui family, and the woman was Liu Menglu from Wanhualou.

Cui Tao said in a deep voice: "Meng Lu, you are really reckless in doing this, and if you attack Liu Yiqiu, it's tantamount to scaring the snake, and it will be even more difficult to assassinate Zhou Rui."

At this moment, Liu Menglu is still full of charm, she smiled and said: "We have been planning for several months, but we can't even find a chance to act on Zhou Rui.

Why don't you kill some close people around Zhou Rui first, which can be regarded as repaying some interest for your Cui family first.

Are you still a little bit reluctant to part with Liu Yiqiu?

It's a pity that it is impossible for her to become your woman, so you should give up on it! "

Cui Tao frowned and said, "Meng Lu, when she wanted to marry Liu Yiqiu, it was more for the benefit of the family, you know all these things.

Now that Liu Yiqiu has become Zhou Rui's wife, she is also my enemy. I don't agree with the assassination of Liu Yiqiu, but I don't want to startle the snake and make Zhou Rui more prepared. "

It turned out that Cui Tao and Liu Yiqiu had hooked up a long time ago. Even before Zhou Rui was reborn, Liu Yiqiu was taken into the bag by Cui Tao, the number one son of Ganyang City.

It's just that even Wan Ruyi, the original boss of Wanhualou, didn't know about this matter.

Liu Yiqiu was also in secret, and provided Cui Tao with a lot of information that the intelligence department of the former Fengwu Jiedu Mansion had.

Liu Menglu said with a smile: "I was just joking, in fact, as long as you don't look for any handsome men in the future, even if you add a few sisters to me, I don't care."

Cui Tao waved his hand and said: "Don't mention those things, I'm not interested in men anymore, now you are enough for me.

Next, let us be honest for a while. We assassinated Zhou Rui's wife. With Zhou Rui's character of vengeance, we will never let it go. "

Liu Menglu hesitated for a moment, "Tao, why don't we leave Ganyang City temporarily, go hide outside, and come back when the limelight passes?"

"There's no need to hide, and if you leave Ganyang City at this time, it will be easy to be exposed. If we stay quiet for a while, there shouldn't be any problems."

In a luxurious private room of the Nine Stars Hotel in Ganyang City, a lion clan member said to a wolf clan member and a tiger clan member in a deep voice: "Zhou Rui's official wife is Liu Yiqiu, the actual controller of Zhou's Bank.

This morning, there was an assassination in front of the main gate of the Zhou Bank's headquarters. The assassins were three humans who used a machine gun and two bolt-action repeating rifles.

The three assassins were killed on the spot, and Liu Yiqiu was also under the protection of the bodyguards without any harm. "

The name of this lion clansman is Matvey, and he is a silver warrior of the Golden Lion Empire.

The name of the wolf tribe is Hailo, a silver warrior of the Silver Wolf Empire, and the name of the tiger tribe is Musi, a silver warrior of the Red Tiger Empire.

These three orcs also have a common identity, that is, the leader of the hunting group, and their hunting group is mainly to accept assassination missions, and they are the most famous assassination hunting groups in their respective countries, and none of them.

After the Three Kingdoms Joint Expeditionary Force was forced to disband, the Golden Lion Empire, Scarlet Tiger Empire, and Silver Wolf Empire all chose to hire an assassination hunting group to get rid of Zhou Rui, the ruler of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires.

It turned out that these three assassination hunting groups had been secretly in touch for a long time, so they reached an agreement to take a joint assassination of Zhou Rui.
