The end of the military era

The No.20 Ninth Army and the No.30 Sixth Army of the Bull Empire, which were surrounded by the human rebels in the Silver Wolf Empire, were surrounded and annihilated by the human rebels on the afternoon of January 1. All officers above the battalion level of the two armies were killed. , It can be seen how tenacious the two armies resisted.

However, no matter how tenacious the resistance was, it could not escape the fate of annihilation of the entire army. So far, only 11 of the 9 armies of the Bull Empire surrounded by the Silver Wolf Column of the human rebel army remained.

At the six-nation meeting the next day, Vikasa, the first deputy minister of the army of the Bull Empire, asked Yegor, the first deputy minister of the navy of the Silver Wolf Empire, angrily: "General Yegor, from our The 11 armies of the Bull Empire were surrounded, and 13 days have passed. Why hasn't your Silver Wolf Empire sent reinforcements?

Now your Silver Wolf Empire has not only not sent reinforcements, but has also stopped the attack on the human rebels. What is the intention of your Silver Wolf Empire? "

Before Yegor could speak, Annott, the first deputy minister of the Navy of the Flying Leopard Empire, added fuel to the fire and said: "What an obvious thing, the Silver Wolf Empire just wants to kill people with a knife, and use the hands of the human rebels to kill you." The 11 armies of the Bull Empire were wiped out."

Yegor, the first deputy minister of the Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire, hurriedly said: "General Vikasa, don't listen to Annott's instigation.

Due to the previous raids, the Royal Army of the Silver Wolf Empire suffered a lot of losses, so we had no choice but to mobilize troops from the spirit world.

And it will take some time to transfer troops from the spirit world, so"

Before Yegor finished speaking, he was interrupted by Vikasa, the first deputy minister of the army of the Bull Empire, "General Yegor, you Silver Wolf Empire don't need to make any excuses, everyone knows some things well. .

I want to know now, does your Silver Wolf Empire have any plans to send reinforcements? "

Yegor hesitated for a moment and said: "Our Silver Wolf Empire will definitely send reinforcements to rescue the besieged bull army in Bauhinia Province, just because we need

Yegor was interrupted by Vikasa again, "Needless to say, I understand what it means.

General Yegor, what your Silver Wolf Empire has done this time, we, the Bull Empire, will remember. "

Yegor's face also became gloomy at this time, "General Vikasa, there are some words, you'd better think carefully before saying them, our Silver Wolf Empire has never been afraid of any threats!"

Seeing that Yegor and Vikasa froze, the First Deputy Minister of the Navy Department of the Golden Lion Empire, Raff, hurriedly stood up to smooth things over, "General Yegor, General Vikasa, everyone calm down.

The No.20 Ninth Army and No.30 Sixth Army of the Buffalo Empire were wiped out. Presumably all our Eldar nations are unwilling to see it. Let us continue to discuss the formation of the Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force!

As long as the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires can be wiped out, the human resistance army in the Silver Wolf Empire will become a rootless duckweed, and it is only a matter of time before they are wiped out. "

While the representatives of the six orc nations were still arguing about the establishment of the six-nation joint expeditionary force, Zhou Rui had already obtained the specific content of the six-nation naval restriction treaty.

Zhou Rui smiled and said to Song Limin, the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet: "It seems that those orc nations cannot bear the financial pressure brought about by the shipbuilding competition, otherwise they would not have signed this six-nation naval restriction treaty."

Song Limin said with a sad face: "According to Guiying's information, the six orc nations held a meeting in Morningstar City of the Golden Lion Empire this time, mainly to form the so-called Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force against our Zhou family.

Once the Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force is formed, our Zhou family will face an unprecedented crisis. "

History has been changed because of Zhou Rui's rebirth. Originally, in the previous life, last year, that is, Tianyuan 1542, the Red Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire would jointly invade the western coastal areas of the Han and Tang Empires.

But last year, the Silver Wolf Empire was too busy to take care of itself, and the Red Tiger Empire was also busy with the shipbuilding competition. It was impossible to follow the inertia of the previous life to invade the western coastal areas of the Han and Tang Empires.

What's more, with the current strength of the Zhou family, even if the Red Tiger Empire and the Silver Wolf Empire join forces, they can't easily invade the western coastal areas of the Han and Tang Empires like in the previous life.

In the previous life, it was not until 1554 that the six orc nations united to invade the Han and Tang Empires. In this life, because of Zhou Rui's disruption, it seems that the Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force will be formed in advance.

Zhou Rui said calmly: "Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, if the six orc nations want to fight our Zhou family, then our Zhou family can only sacrifice their lives to accompany them.

What is important now is not the Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force, but the transport fleet we sent to the eastern coast of the Buffalo Empire this time.

I would rather go to war with the navies of the Golden Lion Empire and the Scarlet Tiger Empire in advance. Your Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet will also escort the transport fleet to the place safely this time! "

Song Limin nodded and said, "Don't worry, Commander, this time our Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet has gathered eight main formations, and we are ready to fight the Golden Lion Empire Navy and the Red Tiger Empire Navy."

"Our big move, especially the mobilization of 20 infantry divisions to be dispatched to the Silver Wolf Empire, should be impossible to hide from the eyes and ears of those orc nations.

However, since the so-called Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force has not yet been formed, then perhaps the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet has a chance to defeat others without fighting.

The eight main formations are too few, and a few more main formations will be added to allow the newly established No.13 formation to join the escort fleet. "

Song Limin hesitated, "Marshal, the officers and soldiers of the No.13 formation have just been fully equipped, and most of them are reserves."

"The two battleships of the No.13 formation have main guns of 380 mm and 381 mm respectively.

Now the navies of the orc countries, the capital ships in active service, do not have such a large-caliber main gun. We just use these two capital ships to scare people.

Remember, fighting the Golden Lion Empire Navy and the Red Tiger Empire Navy is not the purpose of the escort fleet. It is the mission of the escort fleet to safely send the 20 infantry divisions and those combat supplies to the place. "

The six orc nations did not deliberately conceal the naval restriction treaty, and soon the six-nation naval restriction treaty spread throughout the world.

In a large hall of the imperial palace in Lingyang City, the capital of the Liangyan Empire, Fan Yi, the Emperor of the Liangyan Empire, asked the Prime Minister Lu Qing in a deep voice, "Mr. Lu, what do you think of the Six Nations Naval Restriction Treaty?"

The Liangyan Empire has been the most industrially and technologically advanced country among human nations for many years. It has a land area of ​​about 318 million square kilometers and a population of about 17 billion. The royal family of the Liangyan Empire controls the power of the entire country.

Before the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet was born, the navy of the Liangyan Empire had been dubbed the No. [-] navy of a human country for many years.

The Liangyan Empire is also the first country among human countries that can independently build a battleship with full main guns.

Prime Minister Lu Qing pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty, a large part of the reason why those orc nations started the shipbuilding competition is because the Golden Lion Empire suffered a loss in the hands of the Southwest Coast Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires and had to step up their efforts. Increased the number of capital ships to build.

After several years of frenzied shipbuilding, the finances of several orcs have been unbearable, and it will be a matter of time before this shipbuilding competition ends. "

Emperor Fan Yi sighed and said: "Although the six orc nations have signed the naval restriction treaty, according to the information obtained by the intelligence department, the six orc nations are likely to form a six-nation joint expeditionary force against the Zhou family of the Han and Tang empires.

Once the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires is wiped out by the Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force, with the current size of the navy of our Liang Yan Empire, I am afraid it will become the next target of the six orc nations. "

In recent years, because of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet to attract the attention of the orc nation, the Liangyan Empire finally put down its burden and began to spare no effort to build warships.

如今梁燕帝国的海军，已经拥有了39艘全主炮战列舰和12艘战列巡洋舰，另外还拥有36艘全钢制战列舰、40艘大型装甲巡洋舰、74艘轻巡洋舰、90艘驱逐舰、150余艘鱼雷艇、100余艘近海炮艇和其他近百艘辅助船只。

Unknowingly, the strength of the navy of the Liangyan Empire has even surpassed that of the Manniu Empire.

Moreover, in several large shipyards of the Liangyan Empire, there are still 12 battleships with 360mm main guns and 12 battlecruisers with 360mm main guns under construction.

It is expected that before the end of September this year, the construction of these 24 capital ships will be completed.

Prime Minister Lu Qing immediately said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, with the strength of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires, they have long been qualified to form an alliance with our Liangyan Empire.

In recent years, it is precisely because of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang empires at the front that our Liangyan empire dared to expand its army without any scruples.

Therefore, our Liangyan Empire must not sit back and watch the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire be wiped out by the six orc nations. I suggest that we immediately start the plan to form an alliance with the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire. "

Emperor Fan Yi's face was a bit tangled, "But once we really form an alliance with the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires, our Liangyan Empire will face the six orc nations directly.

I'm worried that our Liangyan Empire won't be able to handle it! "

"Your Majesty, if the six orc nations are allowed to destroy the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires first, then the situation facing our Liangyan Empire will be even worse.

It's better to take a gamble, and with the strength of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires, it is worth taking a gamble for our Liangyan Empire! "

Chapter 2 Watching the Fire from the Other Side

Regarding the establishment of the Six Nations Joint Expeditionary Force, such as the proportion and scale of troops sent by each country, and the distribution of benefits after the war, the representatives of the six orc nations have never reached an agreement, and no one wants their country to suffer.

And when the representatives of the six orc nations were fighting for their own interests, the anger of Vikasa, the representative of the Barbarian Empire and the first deputy minister of the army of the Barbarian Empire, became bigger and bigger.
