The end of the military era

Now that Marshal Zhou has agreed to help the Fox, Cat and Rabbit tribes establish a new country, the ultimate goal of our Restoration Foundation has been achieved, and there is no need for you to do anything.

From now on, you just need to serve Marshal Zhou well and enjoy life with peace of mind. "

Kleinie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard that. The problems that had troubled her for the past few days were solved so easily.

"Auntie, when will you come to Ganyang City again?"

"Should be back soon, and your father will be here too.

There are some details about the founding of the nation, and we at the Renaissance Foundation still need to discuss it with Marshal Zhou. "

Just when Zhou Rui and Xinna's concubine Klein were inseparable every day, the emperor of the Bull Empire, Gu Lido, was very angry.

In the royal palace of the first capital of the Bull Empire, Tollite, Emperor Guriduo gritted his teeth and said to his third son, Trofe: "The Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires in the New World now divide the province of Kunlei and Xinkang. The cattle and horses in Si'ao province all rushed back to the spirit world.

In addition, almost all the property of the cattle and horses in the province of Kunclay and the province of New Constance was confiscated. This is equivalent to the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires creating more than 1000 million refugees for our Barbarian Empire.

This is simply worse for the empire's finances."

Trofe, the third son of Emperor Gurido, was also the governor of the Bull Empire in the New World.

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

In this war between the Bull Empire and the Zhou family, Trophy was also the commander of the army of the Barbarian Empire.

Trophy said helplessly: "The Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires took such a method when they captured New Wilk Province.

When all the cattle and horses in Kunclair Province and New Constance Province are driven back to the Spirit Race world, it will become even more difficult for our barbarian army to regain these two provinces. "

Emperor Guriduo said with a fierce look on his face: "When will the Royal Army of the Empire launch a counterattack against the province of Kunclair and the province of New Constance?"

Trophy shook his head, "Father, the Royal Army of the Empire lost several million dollars in the province of Kunclair and New Constance. It is unrealistic to counterattack these two provinces in a short period of time. It will take a while for the Royal Army to get more recruits."

Emperor Guriduo frowned and said: "Didn't the Red Tiger Empire also send more than 200 million troops into the provinces of Vidores, Elenden and Feidata?

Wouldn't it be okay to add the more than 200 million troops of the Red Tiger Empire?"

Trophy sighed and said, "Father, the Red Tiger Empire feels that now is not the best time to launch a counterattack."

Emperor Guriduo snorted coldly and said: "It's not the best time, so the Red Tiger Empire thinks when is the best time."

"Father, the Scarlet Tiger Empire thinks that we should wait for the armies of the other four countries to launch an attack on the northern front. This is the best time for our Barbarian Army and Red Tiger Army to counterattack the province of Kunclair and New Constance. .”

Emperor Guliduo said decisively: "I can't wait for such a long time.

The loss of Kunclair Province and New Constance Province has already made the empire lose face. I hope to get news of a victory in the near future

Our Bull Empire also needs a victory to boost morale."

Trophy pondered for a moment and said: "Father, since the cattle and horses in Kuncleigh Province and New Constance Province have all been driven back to our Spirit Race world by the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire.

Then it's better to send a navy fleet to shell the coastal cities in Kuncleigh Province and New Constance Province. Anyway, all the dead are human beings, but after the empire recovers these coastal cities, they have to rebuild. "

"You can contact Larion immediately and ask him to coordinate the joint fleet of the six navies to bombard those coastal cities, even if they turn them all into ruins."

Direk City, the largest port city in Kunklei Province, has been renamed Diyang City.

On the morning of September 1545, 9, a large fleet arrived in the waters near Diyang City.

这支舰队当中包括了蛮牛帝国皇家海军的8艘全主炮战列舰、8艘全钢制战列舰、8艘大型装甲巡洋舰、30艘轻巡洋舰和30艘驱逐舰。

以及赤虎帝国皇家海军的20艘全主炮战列舰、10艘战列巡洋舰、10艘全钢制战列舰、10艘大型装甲巡洋舰、24艘轻巡洋舰和32艘驱逐舰。

At this time in Diyang Port, only the 12 light cruisers and 4 destroyers left behind when the 4rd, [-]th and No. [-] formations of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet withdrew were completely unable to intercept the orc fleet that appeared.

不过蛮牛帝国原来在迪阳港修建有6座炮台，装备有12门45倍口径300毫米岸防炮和32门45倍口径240毫米岸防炮。

When it was discovered that the fleets of the Bull Navy and the Chihu Navy were approaching Diyang Port, the 4 light cruisers and 4 destroyers of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet cooperated with 6 coastal defense guns with 44 turrets to attack the two orc countries. The fleet attacked.

The army troops stationed in Diyang City also pulled a number of 105mm howitzers and 155mm howitzers to the vicinity of the port, preparing to bombard enemy ships approaching the port.

Hundreds of fighter planes in the field airport near Diyang City were also equipped with aerial bombs and joined the attack on the fleets of the two orc nations.

It's a pity that the port of Diyang City and the small half of the city near the port were still destroyed by the fleets of the Barbarian Navy and the Red Tiger Navy.

All 4 light cruisers and 4 destroyers of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet were sunk, and all 6 forts in Diyang Port were blown up. Even the army's artillery units deployed near the port lost more than half.

Only Zhou's air force dispatched hundreds of fighters, and only lost less than [-], but it brought considerable losses to the fleets of the Manniu Navy and the Red Tiger Navy.

Of the 13 warships sunk by the navies of the two orc nations, 9 were sunk by fighter planes of the Zhou family air force, and the other 4 were sunk by coastal defense artillery.

It's a pity that the two fighters equipped by Zhou's air force were not specially designed for bombing warships, otherwise the results would be even greater.

After the attack on Diyang Port, many port cities in Kunzhou Town and Kangzhou Town were attacked by the joint fleet of the navy of six countries, causing a lot of casualties.

The newspapers of the six orc countries also immediately publicized the attack of the combined naval fleet of the six countries on the port cities of Kunzhou Town and Kangzhou Town as the Six Events Alliance sounding the clarion call to attack the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires.

At the port pier of the Crescent Island Naval Base, Song Limin, commander-in-chief of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet, looked at dozens of brand-new battleships and battlecruisers with full main guns in the port, and said to Zhou Rui excitedly: "Don't worry, Commander, our Southwest Coastal Defense The fleet will soon be able to fully staff these dozens of capital ships."

Zhou Rui came to Crescent Island Naval Base this time and extracted all 24 battlecruisers and 54 battlecruisers with full main guns from the lottery system.

Including 24 British Hood-class battlecruisers, 12 British Vengeance-class battleships, 24 American Colorado-class battleships and 18 British Nelson-class battleships.

At present, the reserve personnel of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet is still as high as one million. Not to mention that Zhou Rui only took out 78 capital ships this time, even if there are ten times more, the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet can still be fully staffed.

"Old Song, what do you think of the fact that the port cities of Kunzhou Town and Kangzhou Town were attacked by the navy of six orc nations?" Zhou Rui asked in a deep voice.

Song Limin pondered for a while and said: "Kunzhou Town and Kangzhou Town have just been captured by our Zhou family, and it is too late to build more forts and add more coastal defense artillery to the port cities of the two feudal towns.

It is also expected that it can withstand the attacks of the navies of less than six orc nations. "

Zhou Rui said: "Next, the destroyed ports in Kunzhou Town and Kangzhou Town will start to be rebuilt, with the focus on building more forts.

However, in the process of rebuilding, I am worried that the navy of the six orc nations will still make trouble, but if the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet sends a few main formations, I am worried that the decisive battle with the navy of the six orc nations will be detonated in advance. "

"Marshal, I suggest to use offense instead of defense, and send fleets to harass the coasts of the six orc countries. If you have the opportunity, bite hard, so that the navy of the six orc countries will not have the energy to invade Kunzhou Town and Kangzhou Town coast."

"It's a good idea to replace defense with offense, Lao Song, let's discuss it carefully."

On September 1545, 9, the Ninth Formation and No.26 Formation of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet split into two groups and embarked on a route to the western mainland.

For this expedition, Song Limin mobilized a large number of officers and soldiers from various warships, and staffed the 24 British Hood-class battlecruisers that Zhou Rui had just delivered to the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet.

Even many officers and soldiers were directly transferred from the original 36 British Hood-class battlecruisers of the Ninth Formation, which also allowed the 24 new British Hood-class battlecruisers to immediately have a certain combat effectiveness.

The No.12 formation has 56 British prestige-class battlecruisers. The reason why the ninth and No.12 formations are dispatched this time is because the capital ships of these two main formations are all battlecruisers.

These two formations will form two harassing fleets to launch harassing wars against the coasts of the six orc nations.
