Main text 2150 Blood Double Cross (IX)

When he heard that the legendary Bapra of the Sea Kingdom was coming, the fat man looked back with a bit of curiosity from the bow of the huge Imperial Dragon-class battleship that thrust forward like a side knife. His eyes were filled with deep meaning in the cold light, and he fell. The old man next to Dostronkai sneered at the old man who was known as the protector of the Strand Sea Kingdom and said, "Your Excellency Bapra?"

"Your Majesty Falcon, I am Bapra"

Bapra saluted the fat man with a calm face, glanced across the sea in front of him, and said respectfully, "I hope your majesty will not be bored. Boratby Bay is not inconspicuous in the harbor of Triland Island, but it is definitely There is a unique sense of tranquility. When I was the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, I would consciously come here whenever I encountered any troublesome matters, and they would often be solved without even realizing it. ○I believe your Majesty should feel the same way now! "

"It's a bit peaceful, but the trouble is still there!"

The fat man shrugged his shoulders and said loudly, "The scenery here is indeed beautiful. After just one hour here, it already made me want to build a house here and live with my loved one forever! But I still feel confused inside. I can’t get rid of it, or perhaps Mr. Bapra can help me solve this confusion.”

"Your Majesty, are you talking about the surrender of Haiguo?" Bapra smiled slightly and was about to speak,

The fat man opposite said with a stern face, "Of course it's not a matter of surrender. If Mr. Bapra is here to surrender, then unfortunately, I think there is nothing to talk about, because the empire will not accept anything other than unconditional surrender!" The only option for the Sea Kingdom is to completely and completely surrender, disband the navy, dissolve the parliament, and fully accept the rule of the empire. , give up all unrealistic illusions, the empire will accept this negotiation, otherwise, I can only let the imperial army fight all the way to the center where the parliament is, completely erasing the sea country from the map, and the fat man's eyes suddenly became human. As sharp as a knife, the faint smile on the corner of the mouth expanded to a bright smile, revealing neat white teeth.

"You know, there is only one Triland Island left in the entire sea country. Conquering a small island is not a difficult task for the Imperial Army that dominates Obarro. I believe Bapu Your Excellency knows this very well! I’m just curious about what you want to do?”

"Does Your Majesty really think that Haiguo is incapable of fighting?"

Bapra's face was solemn, and his eyes suddenly became sharp. An intimidating aura on his body made the air around him tense. He said in a deep voice, "It is true that the Imperial Army is less than twenty miles away from the central area, but our sea people The wind is strong, even civilians are mostly sailors fighting waves on the sea, and women can We can go up to the city to defend the city, and with the unity of the people, facing the Imperial Army with only 30,000 people in the central area, I am afraid it will not be that easy to defeat. We only need to do our best to trap the Imperial Army. Here, the empire will have to face the pressure of fighting on two fronts!

"As far as I know, His Majesty's massacre on the coast of Feishan has aroused the indignation of Feishan's army. King Feishan personally issued a combat order. The main force of 300,000 Feishan moved south at once, and the sea The country is still undecided. It is difficult to mobilize the imperial troops. The one who is really anxious should not be us, but His Majesty!" Bapra paused. He said in a deep voice "

"What a pity that Your Excellency will not serve as Army General!"

The fat man turned around and looked at the turbulent blue sea in front of him. He snorted disdainfully, "Haiguo has done this kind of delaying strategy not once or twice. When it wasn't the battle on the southern coast, I gave it to Haiguo." This time, why should I believe you? Unless the famous general of the sea country, Mr. Bapra, gives me the entire navy of the sea country!"

"I came here this time hoping to give the navy of the sea country to His Majesty!" Bapra sighed and replied lightly.

"Are you serious?" The fat man was a little stunned. To be honest, absorbing the Haiguo Navy was quite exciting. Although the Haiguo Navy was completely defeated by the Empire, it is undeniable that the Empire was able to suppress the victory. , it is not that the quality of the Imperial Navy is higher than that of the Haiguo Navy, but because the weapons of the Imperial Navy It is an era ahead of the Haiguo Navy. Hot weapons suppressed the cold weapons era. But even so, the Haiguo Navy's performance is remarkable. It is tenacious, tenacious, and unyielding. The officers of the Haiguo Navy collectively have a great success in the war. In terms of quality, it is definitely the best in this era. Even compared to the Imperial Navy, it is not inferior.

With the rapid expansion of the Imperial Navy in the inland sea area, the resistance it encountered was also increasing. It can be said that most of the areas near the northern coast were controlled by the Empire, especially after the Empire took control of Central Europe. The ports of the countries along the way have almost become areas controlled by the Imperial Navy.

But on the coast near the south, the situation is not so ideal. For example, areas such as Feze and Egypt are not very popular with the Imperial Navy. The naval strength in these areas is not strong, and the warships are old and decorated. Pirates have a bad habit of plundering, but they have a vast land. , even if it encounters the Imperial Navy, it can escape into the inland rivers in the south. The Imperial Navy is beyond its reach. Without knowing the route along the way, it is impossible for the naval fleet to fight deep along the river. Once the enemy army cuts off the retreat, it will be a dead end. One, on the southern coast because There are not just one or two conflicts that arise out of business transactions. Just last month, the Imperial Navy received a report that the armed fleet of the Bioya family, one of the empire's business tycoons, encountered pirates in the southern waters. reported that although the pirate attack was eventually repelled, the armed fleet On the other hand, they also suffered heavy losses. This is still a powerful armed fleet. If it were an ordinary merchant fleet, it would have been chewed up long ago. Now on the inland sea, the fleet is flying the flag of the Imperial Commercial Alliance. It is a symbol of wealth and has long been coveted by the southern coast.

Relatively speaking, the Strand Navy, which has been exploring the inland sea for hundreds of years, has far more resources and understanding of the southern coast than the Imperial Navy. If the power of the Strand Navy can be incorporated into the Empire The importance of the navy to the expansion and stability of the empire's control over the inland sea is self-evident!

But who can guarantee the loyalty of these elite Strand naval elites to the Empire? This is what has always troubled Fatty. The Strand Navy has been defeated by the Empire several times. The resentment between the two sides is very great. It is still risky for the Imperial Navy to accept such a naval force rashly.

"It is indeed true!" Bapra said with an embarrassed look on his face. "Has your Majesty ever considered it? Disbanding the Strand Navy will only cause more trouble for the empire. Bapra looked at the fat man's struggling expression and said solemnly every word." The empire's disbandment of the navy seems to be done once and for all, but these naval officers, as well as a large number of sailors, are all very familiar with the inland sea. If left alone, they will either become pirates who rob the sea, or become naval officers who are enemies of the empire. Although the inland sea area is now owned by the Imperial Navy, the hegemony of the sea area has always been in constant war. Rather than letting these outstanding naval personnel become the enemies of the Empire, why not let them be used by the Empire? And I believe that whether your Majesty wants to fight against Fei Shan or against Fei Shan, During the battle in Istanbul, these naval officers who are familiar with the situation will make His Majesty even more powerful! "

"Although the navy of Haiguo is attractive, it is a navy without loyalty..."

The fat man touched his chin and curled his lips slightly. He was telling Bapra. It's not impossible for me to take over, but the problem is that the issue of loyalty cannot be resolved, so everything is out of the question! As the former commander-in-chief of the Navy of the Sea Kingdom, Bapra naturally knew this truth. He smiled and said, "I did not ask Your Majesty to preserve the Navy of the Sea Kingdom. Instead, I hope that the empire can absorb the elites in the navy for the empire's use!"

"There is no problem with loyalty. As a prerequisite, I will let the Strand Navy collectively surrender to the empire." Bapra paused and sighed. "Then what to do. Choose to retain or disband, that is Your Majesty's problem. !”

"Collective surrender?" The fat man trembled slightly. He said with some uncertainty, "This... Your Excellency, can you guarantee that those officers are willing to do so?" He knew that a person like Bapra, who has a high level of honor and a strong sense of honor, would not say anything casually. Protector of Strand Sea Kingdom God, the famous general who carried most of the glorious era of the Sea Kingdom of Strand on his shoulders, what choice will he make in this precarious end of the Sea Kingdom? After receiving the invitation letter from Bapra requesting a meeting, it was out of such curiosity that he agreed. Moreover, the other party confirmed that the meeting place was in this bay and was within the control of the emperor. This showed the sincerity of the other party. , but Fatty still brought two Dragon-class battleships, a squadron of six Dragon Tooth battleships. Emperor Istan had learned from the past, and Fatty didn’t want to be ambushed by the opponent once! But I didn't expect that the famous general from the sea country I saw would actually make this request?

Give yourself the entire navy of the Strand Sea Kingdom. Did you hear that right?

"Of course I am willing!" Bapra nodded affirmatively, but there was a surprising trace of desolation in his expression, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and he continued, "Many people in the navy of the sea country, They were originally residents of the outer islands, but those islands are now under the control of the empire."

Bapra glanced at the fat man and said with a wry smile, "As for some officers from Triland Island, I have also arranged them. News will come soon. When the time comes, I just hope that His Majesty will not reject them."

"Deployment?" The fat man's eyes flashed with an inexplicable luster, his eyes were slightly blurred into a line, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there was strong belief in his tone, "If it is sincere, the empire will not refuse!" "

"That's it, thank you so much!" Bapura nodded gratefully, looking at the sea in the distance. Few outsiders know that this is the place where the Strant Navy started. Three hundred and thirty-five years ago, the ancestors on Trillan Island were full of desire for the other side of the sea. It was from here that they boarded a simple ship and began their journey to conquer the sea. They eventually conquered more than a hundred islands of all sizes and built the foundation of the sea country. With the rising and setting of the sun and the setting of the moon, and the ebb and flow of the tide, would the ancestors who set foot out of Trillan three hundred and thirty years ago have thought that the sea country would also have a day when the enemy navy would set foot on the island? With the country already in this state, this is all I can do!

At this moment, an Imperial Navy officer hurriedly came up from behind and whispered in the fat man's ear, "Your Majesty, I just received news that civil unrest broke out in the central area. The Navy officers of the Sea Nation collectively attacked the Speaker's Mansion, causing the Speaker Strand to fall and be seriously injured when he jumped out of the window to escape. The former Navy Commander-in-Chief Prince Anji was accused of being the mastermind behind the scenes..."
