The end of the military era

4 Queen Elizabeth-class battleships

This is exactly the same as the two rewards offered by the Samsung lottery card that was given out for free in November last year.

In this way, in the lottery system, there are 12 German Bavarian-class battleships and 12 British Queen Elizabeth-class battleships in reserve.

At present, the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet, including the four full-armor battleships Dongfeng, Nanfeng, Westwind, and Beifeng built by Ganyang Shipyard, already has 4 full-armor battleships and 222 battlecruisers.

In terms of the number of these two battleships, the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet is only behind the Navy of the Golden Lion Empire and the Navy of the Scarlet Tiger Empire, surpassing the navies of the Black Bear Empire, Flying Leopard Empire, and Silver Wolf Empire.

Zhou Rui hasn't spared time to go to the Crescent Island Naval Base recently, so the two full-armed battleships with larger main guns in the lottery system were not selected by Zhou Rui.

After using the four-star lottery card, Zhou Rui offered six rewards.

50 catties of gold bricks 12 pieces

800 German Panzer III tanks

7.9257 million boxes of 100mm rifle bullets, 1500 rounds per box

50 million rounds of 100mm shells

6 German Bavarian-class battleships

6 Queen Elizabeth-class battleships

Zhou Rui didn't expect to be able to drive the German Panzer III this time, and he didn't even need the introduction of the lottery system. Zhou Rui knew all aspects of the German Panzer III's parameters by heart.

The German Panzer III has a total weight of 15 tons, a length of 5.38 meters, a width of 2.91 meters, a height of 2.44 meters, an armor thickness of 10 mm to 47 mm, a maximum speed of 23 kilometers per hour on dirt roads, and a maximum stroke of 115 kilometers. One 50mm tank gun and three German MG34 general purpose machine guns.

The 50mm tank gun is equipped with 79 rounds of ammunition, and the MG34 general-purpose machine gun is equipped with 6450 rounds of ammunition.

800 German Panzer III tanks, coupled with a certain number of Black Cat tanks, are enough for Zhou Rui to build a large-scale armored force in a short period of time.

After another 6 German Bavarian-class battleships and 6 British Queen Elizabeth-class battleships were launched, the number of these two full-armed battleships reserved in the lottery system reached 18.

The 36 battleships with all main guns can completely allow the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet to form a new main force formation.

In the Governor's Mansion in Detrika City, the second capital of the Bull Empire, Governor Trofe asked the two senior officials of the Royal Army of the Bull Empire with a gloomy face: "Do you have to give me an explanation?

Why was the Royal Army defeated by the human rebels in the Silver Wolf Empire?

In just three days, 10 cities in New Wilk Province have fallen into the hands of this human resistance army! "

Trofe, the governor of the Bull Empire, is the third son of the current emperor of the Bull Empire.

However, because Trophy's two elder brothers both died of illness, Trophy is now the first heir to the throne of the Bull Empire.

The Army Minister of the Buffalo Empire Tonicchi hesitated for a moment and said first: "Governor, our Royal Army was caught off guard by the human rebels in the Silver Wolf Empire this time.

Our Ministry of the Army never thought before that the human rebel army in the Silver Wolf Empire would attack the New Wilk Province of our Bull Empire, so that the various troops stationed in the border areas of the New Wilk Province were not fully prepared for the battle.

However, our Ministry of War has mobilized a large number of troops to the front line. I believe that the battle situation on the front line will stabilize soon, and sooner or later this human rebel army will be driven back to the territory of the Silver Wolf Empire. "

Usr, the first deputy minister of the Army Department of the Bull Empire, continued: "Don't worry, Governor, the situation in New Wilk Province will soon be reversed.

Our Royal Army's more than 100 million troops in the Silver Wolf Empire are already preparing to attack this human resistance army with the Imperial Royal Army in New Wilk Province. "

Now that the flames of war have reached the territory of the Barbarian Bull Empire, the Barbarian Bull Empire can no longer take care of the Silver Wolf Empire.

The Army Department of the Barbaric Bull Empire immediately ordered the more than 100 million barbarian army currently in the Silver Wolf Empire to withdraw back to the country immediately, and deal with the human rebels in their own home first.

Governor Trophy snorted coldly and said, "One month!

Within one month, the human rebels in New Wilk Province must disappear! "

The Minister of War, Toniqi, and the First Deputy Minister of the Ministry of War, Usr, glanced at each other, with embarrassment on their faces.

Minister of War Tonic said cautiously: "Governor, according to the information we have received, the human rebel army in the Silver Wolf Empire has gathered millions of troops this time in order to attack the New Wilk province of our Buffalo Empire. .

A month's time may not be able to end the battle in New Wilk Province. "

"So how long do you think it will take?"

"Three months! Governor, our Ministry of War guarantees that within three months, the human rebels in New Wilk Province must be wiped out, or they will be driven back to the territory of the Silver Wolf Empire."

Governor Trophy nodded, "Okay, I'll give you three months to the Ministry of War, and it's best not to let me down."

Then Governor Trophy turned to the Minister of the Navy Larion in the room and asked: "Can the Royal Navy independently blockade the eastern coast of the Empire?"

Minister of the Navy Larion said with some embarrassment: "Governor, according to the latest information, the southwestern coastal defense fleet of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire has more than 200 battleships with full main guns and more than 90 battlecruisers.

With the strength of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires, it can now be ranked as the third largest navy in the world.

Therefore, relying on our Royal Navy alone, it may be difficult to block the eastern coast of the empire. "

Governor Troffi gritted his teeth and said: "Larion, what are you talking about with full main gun battleships and battlecruisers now!

Who patted his chest and assured me that the offshore defensive navy mainly composed of destroyers and torpedo boats was enough to guarantee the safety of the empire's waters? "

Secretary of the Navy Larion hurriedly explained: "Governor, there is nothing wrong with our strategy of building an offshore defensive navy with destroyers and torpedo boats as the main combat ships.

It is really the southwestern coastal defense fleet of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires, which has too many battleships and battlecruisers with full main guns. You must know that our Royal Navy now only has more than 300 destroyers and more than 800 torpedo boats.

However, the opponent only has more than 300 battleships and battlecruisers with full main guns, and the opponent has a large number of other types of warships, which makes it impossible for our Royal Navy's fish tactics to be used. "

In fact, the Minister of the Navy, Larion, already knew in his heart that the "Fish Plan" he formulated was wrong, but in front of Governor Trophy, Larion would never admit that there was a problem with the "Fish Plan".

What's more, Larion had no choice but to implement the "Fish Project". If it weren't for the serious shortage of funds for the Royal Navy of the Bull Empire, who would not want to build more capital ships!

Governor Trophy slowed down and calmed down his anger before saying to the Minister of the Navy, Larion: "Then continue to contact the navy of the Golden Lion Empire and the Navy of the Red Tiger Empire, and let the navies of these two countries help the empire The Royal Navy must firmly block the eastern coast.

The army of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire must not be allowed to directly enter New Wilk Province from the sea, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous! "

Chapter 2 Encirclement and Annihilation

In the Bauhinia Province of the Silver Wolf Empire, the 11 armies of the Bull Empire are being ordered to withdraw to their own New Wilk Province to wipe out the human rebels who have entered the New Wilk Province.

Before that, the Bull Empire sent a total of 19 armies to the territory of the Silver Wolf Empire. In addition to 11 armies that entered the Bauhinia Province, 4 armies entered the Tulip Province, and 4 armies entered the Phalaenopsis Province.

According to the army establishment of the Bull Empire, each group army has 4 infantry divisions, 1 supply brigade, 2 heavy artillery regiments, and 1 guard regiment under its jurisdiction. The total strength is about 8, and all officers and soldiers are from the cattle tribe.

In addition to the formation of the group army, the army of the Bull Empire also has an independent division with cattle as officers and horses as soldiers, and a security brigade with horses as officers and humans as soldiers.

However, this time when they entered the Silver Wolf Empire to wipe out the human rebels, the Bull Empire did not mobilize any independent divisions or security brigades, but only mobilized 19 army groups, most of which were mobilized from New Wilk Province.

This also led to the fact that when the Silver Wolf Column attacked New Wilk Province, most of the troops guarding the border area of ​​New Wilk Province were independent divisions with weak combat effectiveness, and security brigades with poor combat effectiveness.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Silver Wolf Column to capture 10 cities in New Wilk Province in just three days.
