Realm of Power

In a bay shrouded in white mist, in a port near the coast of Feishan, on an Imperial Dragon-class battleship, Fatty watched the Imperial Navy sailors on the pier hoist a huge three-meter-high wooden box onto the ship's deck using an axle. It didn't look heavy, but everyone who was operating it seemed very careful. An officer walked over to him after carefully checking the items inside, and stood at attention in front of the fat man and saluted.

"Your Majesty, everything is in good condition. As soon as it is assembled, it can be tested!" The officer's voice was filled with excitement that could not be concealed.

"Let's get started!"

The fat man nodded, his expression solemn, and his two thick sword eyebrows were raised in a rare move. Perhaps only he knew what the thing in front of him meant for this era, even though he knew that the Imperial Military Research Institute had successfully developed this When the thing was actually placed in front of Fatty, Fatty was still a little unbelievable. A new era and an old era might be redefined today. Fatty's hands tightened unconsciously.

"What are these!?" Bertrand Bonnie, who was standing next to him, had a pretty face full of curiosity. Regarding the confidentiality of this batch of items that arrived at Feishan as quickly as possible, even she She didn’t know, and the fat man didn’t tell her what it was, but his cold and serious face showed the importance of this batch of secretly arrived weapons.

"Start assembling!"

The officer turned around excitedly and raised his hand in the direction of the wooden box. The wooden box immediately took action. A dozen open wooden boxes were spread out on the deck. Piles and bundles of things were cleared out, and a large number of ropes were They began to connect together one after another, and inside the knots, the specific shapes of the objects were basically revealed. A soft round object occupies a width of seven to eight meters on the deck, and the knot is wrapped around the entire ball. All the people involved are from the Imperial Military Academy. As long as they think of being able to work under the great Falcon, One of the greatest works of the Imperial Military Academy can be displayed before you. The officer and everyone who participated in the demonstration were so excited that they could not sleep at night.

"What? It's just a big ball patched with cloth. What's the use?"

Bertrand Bonnie looked at the objects on the deck with her round eyes and murmured in a low voice. He looked very disappointed, thinking that it was something so great that it required a squadron of Imperial Guards cavalry to be escorted, but it turned out to be just a rag ball, the thing in front of him. I don’t know how to describe it at all. If I really had to describe it to Bonnie Berlant, it would be similar to the leather ball she played when she was a little girl, but it was a tattered leather ball with no sense of beauty at all, and yet it could actually cause arousal. Does the fat man pay so much attention to it? The assembly was completed very quickly, and what happened next made Bonnie's eyes almost bulge. She didn't know how those people did it. A tube connected to the ball, and then, a few minutes later. The soft cloth ball began to expand, and the huge ball began to rise. After shaking a few times, it actually broke away from the ground. If the four corners were not firmly fixed on the deck with hooks, this big cloth ball would probably fly away.

"Monsters. Flying monsters!"

Bertrand Bonnie's body was stiff and her eyes were unblinking. If she hadn't seen it, she wouldn't have believed what she saw. The huge balloon was fixed there by a rope, but it was not very stable. It swayed from side to side, as if a living monster was trying to struggle away. No matter how courageous Bertrand Bonnie was, her body was still shivering at the moment. He consciously leaned in the direction of the fat man, but heard the fat man ask, "How many people can it carry when it is full?"

"It can still carry people! Oh my god, it can't... fly!" Bonnie's little face turned pale, and her mind went blank. Can it really carry people? That man can fly into the sky like a bird!

"Two people, let's do an experiment with sandbags of equal weight. If we let go of all the weighted sandbags, we can carry a load of 400 kilograms and last for about ten hours." The officer replied respectfully, his eyes sparkling.

"Ten hours? That's great!"

The fat man nodded. It was quite good to be able to make a hydrogen balloon to this extent. The invention of the hydrogen balloon was not actually an invention of the Military Academy, but came from the notebook of Prophet Ferran. This prophet also I once made a similar invention, but it was too shocking and was completely obliterated by the Sky Temple in the post-world, but the process of doing it is in that notebook. After reading this prophet's notebook, the Military Research Institute devoted all its efforts to cracking the research, because Prophet Ferran had recorded in detail the method of producing hydrogen. Even so, it took the Military Research Institute more than half a year to finally complete the hydrogen production process. Ball, the fat man waved his hand to the officer, "From now on, you and the others will stay on this battleship. You should be needed soon!"

"Yes!" The officer stood up excitedly. The gathering of the Imperial Navy in the waters of Istan is not a secret in the Empire. It is an honor for any Imperial soldier to have the opportunity to participate in such a battle. The fat man asked There is another consideration for the personnel of these military research institutes to stay on the battleship, that is, hydrogen balloons are still highly confidential in the empire, and ordinary personnel cannot operate them. Although hydrogen balloons have been developed However, it is too early to say that it will be used in combat. The carrying capacity is too small and there are many uncertainties. It is impossible to form the so-called air power in a short time. However, in special circumstances, hydrogen balloons are a weapon that can determine the entire battle situation. , on the vast sea, the field of view of the hydrogen balloon coupled with a naval lookout is enough to detect the opponent's fleet at the maximum range. The pocket has been opened, and now we are waiting for the southern coalition's naval fleet to move north.

"Your Majesty, we have just received news that the southern coalition forces in Istanbul are gathering on a large scale, which should be a precursor to breaking out." A guard officer came up from behind, holding a copy of the newly received document in his hand. Report "Breakout?" The fat man took the report and glanced at it. He did not show any concern. Instead, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he finally took the bait! After spending so much effort and ordering the Hungarian cavalry to storm the base camp of the Southern Army, wasn't it just for this? The Southern Allied Forces, who were trying to contain the Imperial Army by attacking Kyoto, finally couldn't sit still anymore.

Misinformation coupled with a very passive environment. It is easy for these southern coalition generals to conclude that they must break out, but since they are in their pockets, how can they be allowed to escape! Not to mention, he still needs these 400,000 Southern Allied Forces as bait to draw out the huge naval fleet of the Southern Allied Forces. Only by putting the 400,000 Southern Allied Forces into a desperate situation of being trapped, will the Southern Allied Forces base camp abandon the originally designed ambush plan and instead ask the lurking naval fleet to move north to meet the besieged 400,000 Southern Allied Forces! This plan is what Fatty thought of the Dunkirk evacuation in his previous life. In order to save the army from the sea, the opponent's base camp will definitely think of using the navy to rescue! "I have given the empire the most powerful weapon, and if it is allowed to be broken by the coalition forces, Varisien can die to apologize!"

The fat man held the report in his hands and looked at the vast sea in front of him. If the coalition had launched this breakout battle five days ago, there might have been a chance. However, the coalition was delayed for five days. With the empire's 20,000 grenadiers entering the battlefield, the other side really had no chance at all. With the empire's military industry Regarding the improvement of explosive bombs, the production of small explosive bombs has been completed in batches.

The 20,000 grenadiers who had been secretly training in northern Congo and Africa were divided into four Guards Grenadier Regiments this time and finally officially entered the Imperial Army's order of battle. Imperial Guards Grenadier Regiments, each regiment consists of 3,000 grenadiers and 7,000 combat infantry. Attached to the logistics cavalry team of 2,000 people, the total strength of the entire corps is 12,000 people.

No one would have thought that there would be such a secret force in the vast wilderness of northern Congo. The training of these imperial grenadiers was completely kept secret, which was part of the reason why the empire had been slow to develop northern Congo. In order to hide the existence of these imperial grenadiers, the empire invested a total of tens of millions of gold coins. If placed in a general combat flag regiment, it would be enough to form 100,000 people. But here, there are only 20,000 people. You can know the huge consumption,

After six months of training, the elite soldiers drawn from various units at the beginning of the year have completed grenadier combat training, coordinated operations, defense, attack, teamwork... a series of training, also for the Imperial Grenadier training The system provides a very rich practical experience. The 20,000 grenadiers marched together with Bertrand Bonnie's Northern Congo Army. Few in the entire Obaro knew that during the imperial army's southern and northern wars , what the Falcon Emperor was thinking about when he was invincible. It is the future development direction of the Imperial Army. As the Imperial Thunder God becomes more and more known, and various solutions are found to solve it,

In the empire, the light before dawn is crossing the lines of the times. The era of cold weapons is coming to an end. The great battle in the Istan Empire will soon become the largest and final battle in the era of cold weapons. It is also the final battle of the cold weapons era. The death knell of cold weapons being eliminated

The sprawling battlefield was filled with vast emptiness and chaos under the gloomy sky, and the strong wind howled between the two armies.

The battle in Luke's area. From the very beginning, we entered the tragic battle of life and death. With the fierce attack of 400,000 Southern Allied Forces, everyone from the generals to the soldiers knew very well that this was the only chance to survive. If they could not open up a breakthrough direction, there would be only a dead end, no matter what happened within the Allied Forces. Everyone's thoughts were completely let go at this time, in order to give Liu Wanya, who had high hopes, The Ding Camel Cavalry creatively broke through the imperial blockade. Infantry teams drove up one by one. The fastest light cavalry bravely moved forward amidst the dense clusters of arrows on the opposite side, like wild beasts that were forced into a desperate situation. The cold light flashed densely. Arrow clusters were thrown out, covering the color of the sky, and throwing lines of death at high altitude towards The front end of the coalition's attack line fell, and at that moment, it was like huge waves hitting the hard rock wall, and the dense clouds formed by the arrow clusters violently bombarded the crowd without any hindrance. The war horse neighed miserably, the huge body splashed with terrifying bright red, and the metal arrow pierced the soldier's mailed flesh, causing There was a terrible sound of flesh being torn apart and bones being pierced. Such sounds came one after another. The horse rolled and fell to the ground while running, raising smoke and dust. The camel cavalry was covered with arrows and fell from the camel. Blood flowed from the head of the helmet. The position flowed down, and the entire strong attack momentum suddenly looked like a spear head that was violently broken, tilting a little. It was inserted into the soil, but this soil was spitting out human blood. After the arrow cluster, there were continuous imperial stone throws, roaring fireballs, and the heat wave caused by the explosion brought dust to the face. It hurts, like countless red flowers spreading on the vast land, "Get ready for battle!" The Imperial Army shooters are retreating, and groups of Imperial Army shooters are retreating. Heavy infantry stepped forward, heavy spears were cold and sharp, steel shields stood tall, roaring war flags, solid steel walls, hundreds of thousands of people intertwined on a large battlefield, where the heat wave rolled up, and fast-running horses screamed and fell in the fire. , the infantry were thrown into the air like toys, and then smashed down hard, and the minced meat scattered like raindrops, "Don't be afraid , Advance! "The blood inspired the blood of the coalition infantry. The speed of the Ikar light infantry was brought to its extreme here. It was like a group of lights and shadows shaking in the fire. Hundreds of fires from the opposite side exploded again. Prince Max Supervising the battle personally from behind, as long as he can rush out, even if all tens of thousands of Ikar soldiers are killed, It was worthwhile to fill it all in, but the Imperial Army on the opposite side fought too fiercely, with arrow clusters, stone throws, and incendiary bombs falling like rain. A low-lying land of three to four hundred meters turned the ground over. Pieces of corpses of the coalition forces were piled up in the low-lying areas. Compared with the attack of the Ikars, the Harvey Army's battle seemed a bit more tragic.

Harvey infantry wearing heavy armor, holding shields, the scattered queue rushed out of the sea of ​​​​fire, miraculously like a river converging like a river, first dozens of people, then hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, Some of them had half of their mails torn off, some of their Ding helmets were swept away by the heat wave, and some of them had half of their bodies stained red with blood.

But when they heard the sound of "raising a gun", everyone without exception made an action. They used all their strength to level the bayonet in their hands. Move closer to the officer with the battle flag flying in front,

"Go forward, long live Harvey." The world was filled with the shocking sounds of these Harvey heavy infantry. 100 meters in front of them was the Falcon Army's defense line. "Kill!" Sixty thousand camel cavalry rushed into the low-lying areas, and finally turned into crazy desperate running, in their In front, General Aden, who was shouting for an all-out assault, was like the front end of a huge wave hitting a dam, and he collided heavily with the Falcon Empire Army on the opposite side. The armor plate on the camel collided with the dense forest of spears in front, Blood exploded in the crowd in an instant, (to be continued)
