The problem of the Northern Army has finally been solved. Zeng Yi originally wanted to return to the island country as soon as possible. Now the situation of the island country players is very dangerous. Osaka is besieged by the island country army. Although Yang Ming and they returned to the rescue in time, the actions of many of you were immediately blocked by the island country people.
Aware of this, the island country mobilized a hundred thousand troops and set up a complete defense line halfway to prevent them from increasing their troops.
Although the players are personally strong, they really can't break through the islanders' defense line in a short time in a frontal field battle. On the other side, Nara was also attacked by the islanders. A total of three large-scale attacks occurred within a few hundred miles from Osaka to Nara.
On the battlefield, there are more than 300,000 players. The island country is divided into three parts, and the advantage is gone.
"The reorganized island nation's army is indeed different, and its commanding ability has greatly increased!" In this battle, from the beginning of the battle, the players' combined fleet left Osaka, and the island nation's people immediately launched an attack on Osaka, and then took advantage of the return of the Nara defenders.
To support Nara, troops were immediately sent to attack Nara, and a blocking front was set up halfway. The players returned to support. After a series of operations, the players were basically led by the islanders.
"The people of the island country have devoted almost half of the country's strength to deal with the players. The players are really in danger this time!" said the fourth child quite worriedly.
The third child, who was resurrected in the capital and wandered around for several days, met up with Zeng Yi and the others. He looked at Zeng Yi and the others in surprise, "Damn it, I've only been away for a few days. This change is so big, right?
Is it already so dangerous?”
"The people of the island country must have recharged their IQ. In this battle, they seized the opportunity extremely well, beyond everyone's expectations!"
"Aren't the major guilds mobilizing manpower from the Central Plains to increase their numbers?" the boss said with a frown.
"This is the great thing about the people of the island country. The combined fleet is anxious to go back to support, but there is no way to transport personnel. If it wants to transport personnel, the combined fleet cannot support Osaka. It is a dilemma."
"Then when are we going back? Osaka also has our share!" The three of them looked at Zeng Yi at the same time.
"As soon as possible, everything is fine here in the capital. Although we can't affect the situation, we can still sort of settle things by going back as soon as possible."
However, before Zeng Yi and the others could leave, news came back from the court that the Central Plains navy and the Persian navy had clashed in the South China Sea. The Central Plains was shocked when they heard the news, although the conflict between the Central Plains and the four countries was almost obvious.
Everyone on both sides knows that war is almost unavoidable, but so far, both sides have been relatively restrained and have had many disputes, but no direct conflict has broken out. Now it is suddenly revealed that the two sides have clashed at sea, which is enough to surprise Zeng Yi.
.
As the commander of the Jinyiwei, Zeng Yi immediately ran to the Jinyiwei Yamen. The news from the Jinyiwei was that the conflict between the fleets of the two sides occurred during operations. At first, only a few warships met. Although no battle broke out, neither side gave way.
Who, directly confronted each other, and then more and more warships were supported by both sides. In the end, the main warships of both sides arrived, dozens of large warships, and the situation was tense.
Until the news came back from the Jin Yiwei, the two sides were still confronting each other. When he heard that there was no battle, just a confrontation, Zeng Yi breathed a sigh of relief. If a battle really happened at this time, it would be troublesome.
It’s not that we are afraid of the Persian navy. With the strength of the Central Plains navy, we are not afraid of any maritime power. But now is really not the time for a war to break out. For the Central Plains, the later the war breaks out, the more advantages it will have for the Central Plains.
big.
For such a major matter, the little princess, a queen who had just ascended the throne, immediately summoned the important officials of the court to discuss a solution.
In the palace, a group of ministers were noisy. Generally speaking, most of them were in favor of a war. After all, not long after the little princess took the throne, Zeng Yi had just stabilized. At this time, a war suddenly broke out. It is very likely that those
The forces that had been suppressed resurfaced again. Of course, there was still a small group of people among the military generals who supported starting the war immediately. Persia chose this way. If it did not respond forcefully, it would damage the prestige of the Chinese dynasty.
Of course, the idea that it is not appropriate to start a war for the time being still accounts for the main force. As long as you are not stupid, you will understand this truth, "I understand what you guys mean, but the problem now is that if the Persian navy does not retreat, the imperial navy cannot retreat on its own initiative!
"
"Your Majesty, the Persian navy has to travel a long distance and has difficulty supplying supplies. If the confrontation continues, they will eventually retreat first."
"Yes, Your Majesty, but if this confrontation continues, the possibility of a misfire is too great. I think that I will immediately mobilize the main force of each fleet again and head to the South China Sea. As long as the Imperial Navy has gained an overwhelming advantage, the Persian Navy will
The one who took the initiative to retreat first!"
To be honest, the strength of the Navy is actually still the main battleship. Although Zhongyuan is powerful, the cost of building a first-class ironclad ship is not cheap. The Zhongyuan Navy currently only has a few dozen first-class ironclad ships, and it is still responsible for the long-term development of China.
On the coast of South China Sea, more than a dozen main warships have now gathered. Even if they are deploying warships, the imperial court cannot mobilize many more.
But this was also an effective way to force the Persians to retreat first. In the end, the imperial court insisted on squeezing out ships one by one. Even Zeng Yi was temporarily mobilized to the Jiaolong. As an official of the imperial court, he was
The Queen's confidants naturally couldn't say no.
The imperial court gritted its teeth and mobilized ten more warships from various naval forces and set off for the South China Sea. The Jiaolong set off for the expedition. Zeng Yi was sure to follow. This was Zeng Yi's greatest wealth. Zeng Yi did not want his own Jiaolong.
There was a problem with the number. It happened that he had something to do with the commander of the Jinyiwei, and also needed to know the strength of some Persian navy. The little princess simply accepted Zeng Yi as the commander of the main city with ten first-class ironclads.
Departing from Dengzhou, we boarded the ship and headed all the way to the South China Sea along the coast. Warships dispatched from major ports gradually joined the fleet. When the fleet sailed into the South China Sea, there was already a force of ten first-class ironclads, several of which supported the warships.
The huge fleet in the main city!
It was also the first time for Zeng Yi to command such a large fleet. To be honest, he was very excited. Standing on the deck and looking forward, Zeng Yi had a very serious expression. After a while, the third son's voice came from behind, "Okay.
I've already taken the screenshot, it's time for me!" The four guys from Zeng Yi took turns taking pictures. This is a rare scene for any player. They all wanted to take pictures so they could show off later.
...
"General Qi! In just a few dozen nautical miles, we will reach the point where the two sides will face off!" a naval deputy general reminded Zeng Yi.
