Realm of Power

The setting sun is melting, and the rays of the setting sun dye most of the sea red from the distant sea level. Between this red sky, countless sails are blocking the sky and parked on the sea outside Melbourne Port. , like a dark cloud pressing outside the Port of Melbourne, an anxious atmosphere before the war filled the entire Port of Melbourne

"Oh my God, it's the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce's fleet!"

"Those evil Imperial gangsters are here!"

The Biang people in the port were frightened and yelled. The recent rumors about a Sunrise Chamber of Commerce can be said to have spread throughout the entire coast of Barrow, Central Europe. At first, no one took this so-called Sunrise Chamber of Commerce seriously. , even those countries that have received the ultimatum from the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce regard this small chamber of commerce that can’t figure out how much it weighs as a joke.

Not to mention, there are all kinds of sayings in the streets and alleys, and even in the shortest time, a Central European Barrow proverb "Sunrise is arrogant" was born.

But what happened next made the Central and European Barrow people not so happy. Originally, everyone thought that the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce would definitely suffer a bloody blow in Fort Locke, which is known as the small power of Central and Eastern Europe. Maybe they would like to spread money everywhere. The Medici family would generously reward them with a few coins and send them away as beggars. Who would have thought that when the news came, everyone’s glasses would be shattered on the floor.

The Sunrise Chamber of Commerce was not sent away, but Fort Locke, which had tens of thousands of elites, was tricked. It suffered a painful blow and surrendered to a chamber of commerce without fighting. Who would have thought of such a thing? No matter how bad the Medici family is, they are still at the level of regional monarchs, not to mention that Castle Rock is under the management of the Medici family. , the strength has increased greatly in the past ten years, especially by using the Hungarian Rebellion to gather many talents, and in one fell swoop it has become the economic and cultural center of the Central European Baron. Even with other Central European Baron powers, it is on an equal footing, but it is such a A country with four sharp cards, facing a Chamber of Commerce fleet, just surrendered.

No one has come to their senses, and some even speculated whether the Medici family had any special strategy to first let down the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce's vigilance, and then give the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce a fatal blow, before making such a ridiculous decision. But two days later, instead of waiting for the Medici family's miraculous counterattack, the Central European Barro people received another piece of news that shocked the entire European Barro family.

Anthea, who has a certain amount of naval combat power, was brutally and unreasonably blown open by the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce fleet with Thor simply because she refused to allow the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce fleet to enter the port. After sinking the fleet in the port, a group of Sunrise Chamber of Commerce ships were The mercenaries rushed in, landed directly, defeated the guards of the Anthea Palace, swept the Anthea Palace away, and then forced the Anthea people to sign a bizarre agreement to lease the port to the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce for a hundred years.

This time, the Central European Barrow people understood clearly that this was not a chamber of commerce, it was just a bunch of hooligans! Under the guise of collecting debts, it is clear that they want to loot the Central European ports of Barrow one by one along the coastline.

The Biang people in the Port of Merle are still lucky. After all, the strength of the Biang Kingdom can also be ranked among the top five in Barrow, Central Europe. Moreover, the people of Biang are strong, brave and good at fighting. They have the reputation of "fighting fish" in Barrow, Central Europe. Title, during the Hungarian Rebellion, the aggressive Hungarian cavalry attacked the two border cities of Biang.

Although the Hungarian cavalry finally captured two cities in Biang, resulting in the death of more than 13,000 Biang soldiers, they also paid the price of 6,000 casualties. At that time, the military minister who led the Eastern Army had already entered Rila In the south, follow-up troops are urgently needed. In view of the gathering of troops, the Hungarian army attacking Biang Then he withdrew from Biang and chose to go around the border of Biang. Biang also tacitly agreed not to attack the Hungarian army. However, the resistance of the Biang people was also evident. Even the Hungarians were unwilling to bite them. This time, everyone's eyes are focused on the port of Merport in the Kingdom of Biang.

Whether the Biang people can withstand it is already related to the face of the entire Central European Barrow. There are some small and medium-sized countries along the Central European Barrow, and the Biang Kingdom is already the largest among them. If even the Biang people fail , then there will be no force along the Barrow coast of Central Europe that can dare to resist, and Bion, who has always been tough on the outside world, The kingdom also urgently gathered troops and secretly deployed one-third of the kingdom's troops in the direction of Melbourne. On the other hand, in order not to alert others, the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce still did not dare to provoke the Biang people. According to the statement, the Biang people in Port Merle have become even more angry in the past few days, shouting

"The ferocious Hungarian cavalry dare not provoke the fighting Biang people. This Sunrise Chamber of Commerce is nothing in front of us Biang people! Biang who produces soldiers is not the stupid Anthea people, let alone the greedy Rock Castle , if the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce really dares to come, we will let them sink in Melbourne Harbor!"

Then the courage of the Biang people could not last even an hour when they actually saw the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce fleet overwhelming the sea in the port.

The ships docked in the port raised their sails and sailed out of the port. The Biang people in the port ran towards the outside in a chaotic manner. The carriages of the powerful collided with each other and were crowded on the road. The ruts suddenly opened together and made a rattling sound. The coachman shouted loudly, "Get out of the way, get out of the way, open your dog eyes and see clearly, do you know whose carriage you are blocking?"

In some neighborhoods, thugs smashed and looted. Red fire smoke continued to ignite in the city. Long black smoke rose into the sky. The entire Port of Melbourne was filled with smoke and dust.

"Sir, would you like to send someone to stabilize the city below?" A general standing behind Brandt, the head of the Biang Army, said hesitantly.

"What are you going to do? If it's not so chaotic, how can you make the enemies on the sea believe that we are unprepared!" Brandt shook his head with a calm face. The sea breeze blowing in his face caused the red cloak behind him to sway, and his sharp Looking at the chaotic scene of the city below, his stern face did not waver at all.

Without a little chaos, how can the enemy take the bait?

In fact, after the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce defeated Anthea Port, he was already sure that the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce would definitely come to Merport.

Originally, he had time to evacuate the civilians in the city, but he ordered to block the news that the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce was heading towards the Port of Merle, in order to use the chaos in the port to make the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce on the sea think that Melbourne was completely unprepared, and now it seems that the effect is much better than expected, especially It was in several blocks where smashing occurred, and the black smoke proved the chaos in Port Melbourne. Moreover, Brandt knew that there was an expensive instrument called a lookout in the Imperial Navy, which could observe distant objects. Distance, he believed that at this moment, someone in the fleet on the distant sea was looking at the situation in Melbourne Port.

This is also the reason why he did not put any of the 50,000 Biang troops in Melbourne Port. He wanted to let the other party see and see the real situation in Melbourne Port. The more real the better!

"But, is it really okay to just let it go like this?" The general turned his head away unbearably. He was the person in charge of the military in Melbourne, Angria.

"Anglia, I heard that your family is still in the city, right?" Brandt's eyes flashed and he asked in a serious voice.

"Yes, sir." Anglia's breathing was a little quick. The city was in such chaos, and his wife and children were still in the city. If he had known this, he should have let them go elsewhere, but he was ordered to come here three days ago. After attending the meeting, he was immediately banned from the Xineng Palace, and no news could be spread! Now it seems that this was simply Brandt’s deliberate act.

"I believe they will be safe. You don't have to worry so much. Those vandalisms were only done by people I deliberately arranged. In fact, the city is not as chaotic as you think!"

Brandt looked up calmly and looked at the huge fleet of ships on the distant sea like layers of dark clouds. He took a deep breath and said, "Strictly speaking, Melbourne Port is a key node blocking the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce. It’s not particularly suitable. We have no terrain we can hold on to and we don’t have the heavy weapons to threaten the fleet at sea, but it’s the only way we can stop the enemy. A key node for people, because after passing Melbourne Port, the coastline behind it is a flat line, and the countries they belong to are also small countries with weak national power. Moreover, Melbourne Port is not only an excellent natural port, but also in May and June every year. , due to the low terrain of the port, the sea water will flow back like a reverse flow after hitting the coast of Melbourne Port.

"Going back? I have vaguely heard of this. My subordinates always thought it was just a legend." Anglia was slightly stunned when she heard Brandt's words. Most of the backflow legends about Melbourne Port It’s all hearsay, because the backflow has little impact on ships, but has a significant impact on fish schools.” Haha, the fishermen of Melbourne Port use this special confluence to In these two months, I can often get double or triple the output. Don’t forget, before I was transferred to the royal capital, I stayed in Merport for three full years. What I like most is that I In this season, fishing near the backflow bank is a secret that only local fishermen know. Even businessmen don’t know it. I only know this secret because I like fishing.”

“Adults have really wide range of hobbies”

Anglia said with an embarrassed expression. In the eyes of nobles, entertainment can include hunting, riding horses, banquets, chasing women, and fishing. Things like this are completely untouchables. It’s no wonder that Mr. Brandt has been doing this since After leaving Merport, he didn't do well in the royal capital. Although his swordsmanship was quite impressive, he was out of tune with the entire aristocracy of the royal capital, so it was no use!

This time, it is said that he was appointed by the king to be the leader of the 50,000-strong army. He suddenly entered the ranks of the king's confidants. It seemed that he was soaring to the sky. In fact, it was because this was a hard job. If he fought well, his achievements would be nothing. Defeating a chamber of commerce with an army of 50,000... What kind of achievement is this? If the fight is not done well, it will be very embarrassing. Not only will it damage Bion's national prestige, but it will also become the laughing stock of the entire Obaro. His life will be considered over.

"Sir, all the things that need to be prepared have been shipped!" At this moment, an officer under Brandt came up from behind to report.

On the sea, white waves beat on the huge hull, spread to both sides, and collided with other waves, bursting out bursts of white foam. If there is a pair of eyes looking down from high in the sky, You will find huge swirling wave ripples hitting the fleet flying the flag of the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce. However, it is only the height of the watchman on the mast, and it is still impossible to discover the mystery of this huge bay backflow.

"It seems that our prediction was wrong. The Biang people really did not expect us to come."

Putting down the observation glass in her hand, Sokutus Stellan, who was wearing a black dress, glanced at the corner of her pretty mouth. Although she was not a soldier, she could still see that the chaos in Melbourne Port was real, and the architectural style of Melbourne Port It is a typical bright street, with various exquisite two- or three-story buildings on both sides. Black smoke rises in the city, like a huge black dragon connecting to the sky.

shocking!

Through the lookout, Sokutus Stellan could see red flames emerging from the lit shops and houses, like a huge red snake rolling and churning, while the fire fighters were carrying buckets and beating like crazy. There were overturned carriages, weeping women, gangsters and resisters struggling with each other, until one of them fell to the ground bloody. If this was acting, then the acting skills of these Biang people were too great. Alright!

After all, Sokutus Stellan is not a soldier, and now she also knows why the emperor appointed Crimson Rui as the head of the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce. It is really because the whole woman is ruthless enough, and she is worthy of being the youngest legionnaire in the former Kingdom of Nord. long,

Decisively requested to bombard the port of Anthea, and then ordered the infantry to land and directly attack the royal capital of Anthea. The command and decisiveness displayed by the whole woman was completely contrary to her sweet appearance. There was only one order given to any resister, that Just kill!

Crimson Rui was a woman from the Nord warrior family known for their cruelty. Anthea was the one Crimson Rui directly ordered to kill more than 30,000 people. Later, in the name of purging and capturing pirates, she killed more than 10,000 people.

More than 40,000 heads rolled to the ground, and a quarter of the entire population of Anthea disappeared.

At the same time, it also directly eradicated any factors that might oppose the empire, leaving only a frightened princess of the Anthea royal family as a tool to sign an agreement with the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce.

The time when the lease agreement was signed must be one hundred years. The problem is that the Anthea royal family has died, and there is only one crazy princess left. There is no way she can live beyond a hundred years, so Anthea Port is actually an empire. Yes! If Sokutus Stellan was asked to do this kind of thing, Sokutus Stellan decided that she couldn't do it! After all, Sokutus Stellan is not a soldier. Unlike Crimson Red Rui, who is used to seeing mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and has been with Mao Monaqing for a few years, and has reached a considerable level in terms of means and courage. , Otherwise, how can we really suppress the big ship of the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce!

"It does not look like an act, but I always feel that there is something wrong here. Until now, we have not seen a city guard or security soldier appear on the street. Although we still don't know what the other party wants to do, but I I think there must be something waiting for us." Crimson Red Rui put down the observation glass in his hand without thinking, and guessed in a clear voice.

"Send the order, be on guard tonight!" Sokutus Stellan's face changed. Out of a woman's intuition, she could feel that Crimson Rui was not lying.
