Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage
Chapter 369 Battleship Commissioning Ceremony
In Dominaria City, the port at this time can be described as red flags waving, huge crowds of people, trumpets blaring, and it looks like it is full of joy.
Six four-masted sailing battleships are entering the port one after another. The first five ships do not fly any flags. They are the latest avant-garde class built by the elves for Christine. They are the "Vanguard", the "Tulip Duke", the "Stewart", "Carona" and "Dominaria".
This level was jointly developed by the Elf Tribe and the Stuart Territory. It uses a variety of advanced shipbuilding techniques and materials to increase defense and flexibility while ensuring the original speed. There are twenty large crossbow launchers on each side, whose range and service life have been enhanced due to technological advancements. There are five movable anti-aircraft crossbow launchers on the deck, which can also be used part-time against ships.
Ordinary battleships are equipped with a communication array and a spell range increasing array as standard. This level is equipped with an additional spell range increasing array, which doubles its spell attack power.
The latter ship was the Prince of Wales sailing battleship flying the flag of the Elf Kingdom. It carried the Elf envoys and came to the Kingdom of France to participate in the signing ceremony.
The sound of horse hooves came from far away, and the carriage arrived at the port escorted by the cavalry.
"Everyone dismount and line up!"
Following the order of the captain of the guard, Knight Bella, the cavalry dismounted and formed a welcoming team in uniform. The driver opened the door, and Elena got out of the car first and stood beside her, followed by Christine who was wearing a "starlight robe".
The territorial nobles and officials who had been waiting for a long time came up to greet him.
beep! beep! beep! The trumpet sounded.
The special envoy sent by the elves was Ilulis Yavimaya Sunri. Wearing a formal dress, she led the entire envoy off the battleship and met with the Stewart officials led by Christine in the square.
Since he is an official envoy of the Elf Kingdom, a set of welcome etiquette is necessary. It will not be complicated but not simple, so I won’t go into details here.
Next comes the highlight, the commissioning ceremony of the battleship.
Christine climbed onto the high platform covered with red carpet and flowers. Navy sailors in brand new uniforms, led by officers, ran to the square and formed a formation.
Lord Commander of the Navy, Honorable Knight Jerome Townsend, Vice-Admiral of the Navy, Honorable Knight Kelsey Max, Honorable Knight Horatio Nelson, Honorable Knight George Bridges Rodney, Honorable Knight Hull. Wearing shining armor and cloaks embroidered with the Stuart collar emblem, the five Reiss came to the high platform with their heads held high.
The ceremonial officer shouted loudly: "Knight Jerome Townsend, come forward and be knighted!"
Jerome Townsend strode onto the high platform, bowed and greeted: "Salute to you, Your Majesty the Duke!"
Kristine took a gold plate from Elena's hand, with the territorial flag and battleship identification flag on it. She solemnly handed the thing to Jerome Townsend and said: "In the name of the lord, I appoint you Stuart Captain of the sailing battleship, I hope you can guard the sea and bring glory to the navy. "
Jerome Townsend held the gold plate and solemnly said loudly: "With the honor of a knight, I swear to the great Dragon God that I will live up to the expectations of the Duke."
Christine nodded in response.
After Jerome Townsend returned to the team, the ceremonial officer shouted loudly: "Knight Kelsey Max, step forward to be knighted!"
Kelsey Max strode onto the high platform, bowed and greeted: "Salute to you, Your Majesty the Duke!"
Christian appointed him captain of the battleship Carona.
Others then stepped forward to accept their appointments, Horatio Nelson as captain of the Tulip Duke, George Bridges Rodney as captain of the Stuart, and Hull Race as the vanguard. The captain of the ship.
The five knights held the gold plate and saluted Christine again, and then led the sailors across the trestle and boarded the battleship amid the cheers of the crowd on both sides. After a while, as the trombone sounded, the five battleships hoisted the flags representing the Stewart Territory and the identification flags representing their respective battleships.
clang!clang!clang!
The port bell rang, and the commissioning ceremony of the new ship led by Stewart ended successfully amid cheers and shouts.
If you look at the battleships alone, the Stewart Kingdom now ranks second in the Continental Navy, second only to the Elf Kingdom, and this ranking will not change for a long time.
Previously, the reason why the three southern coastal countries of the Kingdom of France, the Kingdom of Iberia, and the Kingdom of Apennines each maintained a strong naval force was to cope with the outbreak of the demonic disaster. Now that the demonic disaster is over and will not happen again within two to three hundred years, there is no need for countries to build so many capital ships even if they restore their naval strength. It is enough to have one sailing battleship and one or two sailing battlecruisers to fill the scene, and more will build three-masted heavy cruisers or two-masted light cruisers.
This is because the future opponent of the navy will be pirates, and the ships used by pirates are stolen merchant ships. Sending out heavy patrols is already overkill, and there is no need to use capital ships at all. After all, the money from one battle cruiser can buy two heavy cruisers, but one battle cruiser cannot be used to protect two fleets.
The same goes for the Principality of Belgium. It previously had six sail battle cruisers to deal with demonic disasters, and usually to deal with the orcs in the north. Now that the fleet has been destroyed, even if it is rebuilt, it will not consider building such a number of capital ships. Moreover, even if the principality restored its previous fleet size, six battlecruisers would not be able to defeat five battleships.
As for the countries to the north, the Rhine Kingdom has only one sail battleship and one sail battle cruiser, and the Piast Kingdom has only one sail battle cruiser. Their main functions are to show the majesty of the kingdom.
Stewart led these five sail battleships in exchange for various conditions from Christine. In fact, she didn't take out a penny from her pocket. Naturally, there was no need to waste it. With the economic strength of the territory, they could completely support it. Can afford so many battleships.
That night, Christine hosted a banquet at the city hall to entertain the envoys from the Kingdom of Elf and others. Guests at the banquet also included envoys from the Kingdom of France, the Kingdom of Iberia, the Principality of Benedictine, the Principality of Wende, and the Kingdom of Rhine. group, they arrived two to three days in advance. There are also the nobles of Dominaria City and the bishops of various church organizations in the city.
In the name of King Louis of the Kingdom of France, all countries in the Western Continent are invited to send missions to the city of Dominaria to discuss matters related to maritime trade and combating piracy.
The reason why we chose to hold the meeting here is because this matter was initiated by Christine, but she just borrowed the name of the king.
