The end of the military era

还有80艘全主炮战列舰，包括20艘德国巴伐利亚级战列舰、20艘英国伊丽莎白女王级战列舰、28艘英国复仇级战列舰和12艘美国科罗拉多级战列舰。

And 40 large armored cruisers, the British Minotaur-class armored cruisers.

There are so many battleships reserved in the lottery system, but when the final report of the Dragon Whale Island naval battle was sent back to Ganyang City, Zhou Rui found that relying on the warships reserved in the current lottery system still cannot make up for the loss of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet in the Dragon Whale Island naval battle. Loss.

Although the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet won the Longjing Island naval battle, the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet paid a huge price for it, especially the first and second battlegroups that have been fighting the Golden Lion Navy and the Red Tiger Navy.

In the battle of Dragon Whale Island, the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet sank a total of 112 full-armor battleships and 42 battlecruisers, and also lost 67 large armored cruisers, 89 light cruisers, 125 destroyers and 29 submarines. And missing officers and soldiers, the number exceeded 15.

Of course, the results achieved by the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet in the Longjing Island naval battle are also very astonishing.

击沉了金狮海军69艘全主炮战列舰、33艘战列巡洋舰、46艘全钢制战列舰、38艘大型装甲巡洋舰、98艘轻巡洋舰和123艘驱逐舰。

击沉了赤虎海军59艘全主炮战列舰、28艘战列巡洋舰、32艘全钢制战列舰、29艘大型装甲巡洋舰、60艘轻巡洋舰和94艘驱逐舰。

击沉了黑熊海军76艘全主炮战列舰、36艘战列巡洋舰、36全钢制战列舰、30艘大型装甲巡洋舰、92艘轻巡洋舰和120艘驱逐舰。

另外在最后的追击过程中，西南海防舰队还逼降了金狮海军的38艘全主炮战列舰和10艘战列巡洋舰，逼降了赤虎海军的12艘全主炮战列舰和6艘战列巡洋舰，逼降了黑熊海军受了伤的10艘全主炮战列舰和4艘战列巡洋舰。

The navies of the three orc nations, as well as 14 all-steel battleships, 11 large armored cruisers, 9 light cruisers, and 12 destroyers, also became the spoils of war for the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet.

After the results of the Longjing Island naval battle were known to all countries in the world, it can be said to have caused an uproar.

You must know that before the war, all forces basically believed that the Zhou family's southwest coastal defense fleet would undoubtedly lose, but now it is the joint escort fleet composed of the three navies of the Golden Lion, Red Tiger and Black Bear.

Although the two main fleets of the Liang Yan Navy also participated in the Dragon Whale Island naval battle, from the outside world's perspective, the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet defeated the three major orc nations of the Golden Lion, Red Tiger and Black Bear with their own strength. main force of the navy.

In a large hall of the imperial palace in Lingyang City, the capital of the Liangyan Empire, Emperor Fan Yi held the battle report of the Dragon Whale Island naval battle, and could not help saying to Prince Fan Pu and Prime Minister Lu Qing with emotion: "Actually, before the war, I was not optimistic about Zhou Zhou. Home of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet.

Let the first fleet and the second fleet of Liangyan Navy join this naval battle, more because I have no other choice.

Our Liangyan Empire and the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires have long been grasshoppers on the same rope. If the Zhou family is finished, our Liangyan Empire will soon be liquidated by those orc countries.

Even if we knew we were going to lose, we, Liang Yan Haijun, had to bite the bullet and stand up.

I didn't expect the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet to be so powerful. It seems worthwhile for our Liangyan Navy's First Fleet and Second Fleet to lose. "

在龙鲸岛海战中，加入了西南海防舰队第一战斗群的梁燕海军两支主力舰队，总计损失了8艘全主炮战列舰、6艘战列巡洋舰、10艘全钢制战列舰、6艘大型装甲巡洋舰、12艘轻巡洋舰和17艘驱逐舰。

In the final pursuit process, the Liangyan Navy also captured 20 enemy warships, including 5 full main gun battleships and 2 battlecruisers, which can be considered to make up for some losses of the Liangyan Navy.

Prince Fan Pu said excitedly: "Royal Father, the navies of the Golden Lion, Red Tiger, and Black Bear empires all suffered heavy losses in the naval battle of Dragon Whale Island.

I think these three orc nations may not dare to directly declare war on the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires! "

At this time, Prime Minister Lu Qing sighed and said: "Prince, although the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet captured dozens of capital ships in the Longjing Island naval battle, don't forget that the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet also suffered great losses in the Longjing Island naval battle.

The sinking of 112 battleships with full main guns and 42 battlecruisers is tantamount to severely damaging the vitality of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet.

The combined strength of the Golden Lion, Red Tiger, and Black Bear navies still far exceeds the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet, not to mention the navies of the other three Orc nations in the Six Nations Military Alliance.

The minister is worried that the naval battle on Longjing Island is only the fuse of the war between the Zhou family and the military alliance of the six countries. "

Emperor Fan Yi said decisively: "Even if the Six Kingdoms Military Alliance will start a full-scale war with the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires, our Liangyan Empire has no other choice.

Lu Xiang, how is the construction status of the new Xiandao-class battleship with full main guns and the order-class battlecruiser? "

The Xiandao-class full main gun battleship and the order-class battlecruiser of the Liangyan Empire both have 380mm main guns.

Prime Minister Lu Qing said: "Your Majesty, the keels of the 12 Xiandao-class battleships with full main guns and the 12 Order-class battlecruisers have all been laid.

Around July and August next year, these 7 battleships will be able to join our Liangyan Navy. "

Emperor Fan Yi frowned slightly and said, "The quantity is too small. I am going to add another order for 18 Xiandao-class battleships with full main guns and 18 order-class battlecruisers."

Prime Minister Lu Qing said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, several shipyards in our country now want to build 30 Xianyuan-class battleships and 30 traditional-class battlecruisers for the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet. The method is to build so many capital ships at the same time, and the number of large docks is not enough.

In addition, the military expenditure of our Liangyan Empire has almost doubled in recent years, and the treasury has no way to raise funds to build another 18 Xiandao-class battleships and 18 order-class battlecruisers at once. "

Emperor Fan Yi gritted his teeth and said: "There is not enough large docks, so build new ones! If the funds are not enough, the royal treasury will make up for them!

The Zhou family only has our Liangyan Empire as an ally. Since we are on the boat of the Zhou family, our Liangyan Empire has to do our best to keep the ship from capsizing. "

In the Governor's Mansion in Morning Star City, the second capital of the Golden Lion Empire, Governor Kosno's face was very ugly at this time, and Vice Minister of the Navy Raff, standing in front of Governor Kosno, had a pale face and even trembled from time to time.

“被打沉了69艘全主炮战列舰、33艘战列巡洋舰、46艘全钢制战列舰、38艘大型装甲巡洋舰、98艘轻巡洋舰和123艘驱逐舰，这些本总督都可以接受。

After all, the scale and brutality of the Longjing Island naval battle were unprecedented.

But the surrender of 38 battleships with full main guns and 10 battlecruisers simply lost all the face of our Golden Lion Empire!

Raff, why do you say this is?

Could it be that the Royal Navy of our Golden Lion Empire will only kneel and surrender? "

To be honest, Governor Kosno was not particularly surprised by the defeat in the Longjing Island naval battle. After all, the Golden Lion Navy had been taken down by the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet several times before.

What Governor Kosno couldn't accept was that some battleships would choose to surrender to the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet during the retreat.

According to the feedback, many of the capital ships of the Golden Lion Navy who surrendered were not even injured. They were just intercepted by warships of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet and surrendered directly.

Governor Kosno does not require all the officers and soldiers of the Golden Lion Navy to have the determination to fight to the last moment, but you have to try to break through!

If you can't be caught up, just raise the white flag!

The Deputy Secretary of the Navy Raff said with a sad face: "Governor, our Navy Department did not expect that the battle of Dragon Whale Island would turn out like this.

The reason why so many capital ships surrendered may be that they were frightened by the tragic naval battles before. "

Governor Kosno then took a deep breath and calmed down his anger, "The responsibility for the defeat of the Dragon Whale Island naval battle must be borne by someone."

Hearing Governor Cosno's words, Raff's heart was in his throat.

Since the current Navy Minister of the Golden Lion Empire passed away due to illness, as the first deputy minister of the Navy Department of the Golden Lion Empire, Raff, if there is no accident, will become the new Navy Minister.

But I didn't expect that at this critical moment, the joint escort fleet composed of the three navies of the Golden Lion, Red Tiger, and Black Bear would break out in the Dragon Whale Island naval battle with the Zhou family's Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empire, and the Golden Lion, Red Tiger, and Black Bear Three Kingdoms The Navy's joint escort fleet also suffered a disastrous defeat.

If he wants to bear the responsibility for the defeat of the Dragon Whale Island naval battle, Raff is now the first to bear the brunt.

However, Governor Kosno's next words made Raff breathe a sigh of relief, "As the commander-in-chief of this naval battle, Kuzier has an unshirkable responsibility.

Immediately remove Kuzier, Commander of the Royal Navy's First Fleet. "

In fact, Kuzier and Raf have been good friends for many years, and the two are still relatives, but at this time, Rafe dare not intercede for Kuzier.

Then Governor Kosno changed the subject, "The loss of the Royal Navy in the battle of Dragon Whale Island must not just be forgotten.

I will contact the Red Tiger Empire and the Black Bear Empire to prepare to officially declare war on the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires. The naval battle on Dragon Whale Island is just the beginning, not the end. "
