In September 2513 of the Imperial Calendar, the Arabian Sea, Shark Fjord, the famous port of the Brittanian Knights' Expeditionary Force, and the Port of Cofa.
This port is the site of the famous Red Flame Crusade.asxs. It is also the beginning of everything. Countless bloody chivalry wars ended with the Red Flame Crusade and the destruction of King Arabi (also known as Sultan) Jafar still did not stop.
, the Brittanians united the Imperials, the Estalians and the Tyrells, and fought for three to four hundred years before they completely eliminated all attempts to inherit the title of Jafar and Jafar.
all remaining forces.
The ocean fleet temporarily docked here to replenish supplies before continuing to Ulthuan.
"Welcome to watch Ocean Soul 3 brought to you by Enterprise and Ryan. The video process guide is explained. Well, yesterday, we set off from Marienburg and arranged all the remaining things. What's next?
We are going to continue to Ulthuan." Knight King Ryan stood on the famous Kofa Dock and murmured to himself: "But now we need to stop at Koffa Dock for supplies first."
"What the hell, yesterday, we set out from Marienburg in August, and it's already September, and you're still talking about yesterday?" The expedition knight who came down from the deck, Ryan's brother-in-law, Julius, said to him with a black line on his face.
Looking at Ryan, he said: "Your Majesty, I think there is something wrong with your concept of time."
"One day in the Qin calendar is one year in the human world." Ryan said with a smile that was incomprehensible.
"Qin Li?" Fulgen also got off the armored ship. The leader of the Ash Legion was still so elegant: "What is that place?"
"It's an invisible but tangible country." Ryan smiled. He noticed that Sulia and Olica got off the ironclad ship, so he took the initiative to stop the topic: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore.
, we won’t stay here for too long, you can take a walk and have a look, and then we are ready to continue the voyage.”
Arabi, full of exotic customs, is a place rich in various spices, perfumes, coffee, cocoa, tapestries, shawls, honey, glycerin, and ivory products. It used to be a unified country, but with the advent of the Red Flame Expedition,
Jafar's death caused another split. This has been mentioned before and will not be repeated here.
To this day, the empire and the Bretons occupy the most important and fertile areas in northern Arabi, and the remaining dozen Arabi sultans or Arabi emirs (dukes) have formed loose city-states, content with
The state of autonomy, because as long as there is any idea of unification, the armies of the old world will let them understand the truth, that is, Arabi cannot be unified.
Ryan landed here and met with the three great mentors of the Brittanian Knights' Expeditionary Force. The three great mentors led a large group of knights stationed here in Britannia to come to see the king. Ryan spoke warmly.
Soothed and inspired them.
In addition, there is a group of knights that Ryan must meet. That is what Ryan requested before. Among the domestic knight nobles, many families have not cultivated qualified knights for four generations. After Ryan issued the king's decree, many families
The knight family was forced to send many young knight apprentices, or send a group of losers to report to the king.
To put it bluntly, in Ryan's opinion, this group of people joined the war as cannon fodder because they thought they ran too fast. In addition, they had many aristocratic habits and were difficult to control, so Ryan directly sent this group of people to the Arabi Expeditionary Force.
Come and be dispatched by the expeditionary forces here.
In fact, it is to die and try to get rid of these wastes here. The survival of the fittest will select the best and eliminate a small number of talents and elites. Ryan knows that Britannia, like all countries, will also face the problem of land annexation.
, even if the free people finally became independent, the nobles would slowly annex the wealth and land back again.
Is there a solution to this problem? In fact, there is no solution. Apart from the death of a group of people over a fixed period of time, human history is a continuous cycle.
But at least in this world, the contradictions of land annexation are covered up by more terrifying external pressures and various threats. Endless wars make it difficult for the population of knight nobles to grow explosively. After all, the knight grandpas personally lead the charge in the war.
What Ryan has to do is to pick out the trash among the Knight Grandpas and clean them out in a planned way to ease the conflicts. Whether they are serfs or nobles, their first priority is to protect their homeland, Chaos invasion, Greenskin invasion, Beastmen and Humanity.
The Skaven invasion is not a matter of changing masters at all.
How could this group of pampered knights and nobles bear the hardships of coming to a desert place like Arabi? When they saw the king coming to see them, they all came up with tears in their eyes to complain, especially the children of the big nobles who came to see Ryan or
Sulia has been complaining, saying that there are too many wars, the training is too hard, the environment is too bad, the food is not good, and the accommodation is not good. Can she return to Britannia?
"Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in war, and struggle hard and plainly is the spirit of chivalry." Ryan shook hands with the knight nobles with a smile, and then Ryan and Sulia went to the knights' barracks and took a look at the meals of the knights.
In the big pot is potato stew, beef stew and carrot stew.
"How long does it take to stew?" Ryan took a large spoon and rolled the stew in the pot.
"It will take more than three hours to stew." Morgan Mingyan, the Grand Master of the Knights of Bright Flame, said beside him.
"This is a tough dish." Ryan nodded, and the King of Knights took back his spoon.
"Your Majesty, the skeletons deep in the desert are currently fighting with the greenskins from the south of the Badlands at the location of Golden Oath City." Grand Master Morgan said to Ryan: "Both sides have invested an astonishing amount of troops, and the war has already begun.
It went on for several months."
"Well, you didn't participate, did you?" Ryan frowned.
"No, we strictly follow your instructions." Grand Master Morgan said respectfully: "We are not involved."
"Very good. If the greenskins and the Tomb Kings hadn't taken the initiative to fight, we shouldn't have taken the initiative and let the skeletons and green bastards in the tomb fight." Ryan thought for a moment and said slowly: "Also
, the people I sent need to be tempered by war."
"We understand that these guys with thin skin and tender flesh really need the desert wind and sand to get some experience." Grand Instructor Morgan smiled: "Thank you Your Majesty for sending us many recruits. Your Majesty, are you interested in going to see the Foreign Legion?"
What?"
"good."
Next, Ryan and others inspected Britannia's famous foreign legion at the Cofa Pier. The predecessor of this army was raised by the Imperials and Estalians during the Red Flame Expedition.
The foreign army composed of Liers and even Arabis was organized under the order of the then Knight King "Justice" Jules. At that time, it had about one or two thousand people. It was very powerful in combat, but its salary requirements were relatively high. In recent years,
Many people chose to join, maintaining the size of the three combat groups with more than 3,000 people.
This army can be dispatched directly by Ryan, but Ryan is currently not interested in moving the foreign legion back to the country, so he should stay in Arabi to fight.
The fleet heading to Ulthuan took two days to complete supplies at Koufa dock, and then continued its ocean voyage.
In addition to Teclis's high-precision Phoenix giant ship, there are four ships visiting Ulthuan, namely Fulgrim's flagship ironclad ship "Holy Sophia", and Golden Mage Karim's flagship "Burning Scimitar"
, Lane's flagship ironclad "Enterprise" and the previous flagship "Landuin".
After the army returned to the ironclad ship, the ocean voyage continued.
Ryan could occasionally hear the voices of the troops complaining, saying that they had only rested for two days after finally landing ashore before boarding the ship again. After hearing this, the king just smiled and did not respond.
During ocean voyages, military accommodation is indeed a huge problem. Ordinary soldiers have to squeeze into the "soldier cabin", which is a room with dozens of people sleeping on three-tiered iron canopy beds. It is indeed uncomfortable to rest.
The knight and the officers had to squeeze into a three-person room. Only senior officers like Bertrand and Davout, the two commanders of the Old Guard, could have single rooms.
The king's bedroom of the Enterprise is located in the back half of the entire ironclad ship. It is a small suite, covering an area of about 80 square meters. It has an independent bathroom, kitchen, dining room and an independent bedroom. It is relatively narrow, but
It is already the highest level of enjoyment on a battleship.
As usual, Ryan returned to his king's suite after inspecting the situation on the Enterprise ship and the soldiers' meals.
The king opened the door to the room. Olica and Sulia were sitting on the sofa and chatting. Seeing that Ryan was back, Sulia looked very interested: "My dear, you are back? What's the matter?"
"It's nothing." Ryan hung his cloak on the hanger with a fishy expression, and then fell down on the sofa: "Why can't we fast forward time? I really want to go to Ulthuan tomorrow."
"Ryan, you also need to be patient. If Ulthuan is so easy to reach, why do we have to spend so much effort?" Sulia was wearing a full set of Breton feathers and a pleated dress with a slightly see-through tie today.
The upper half is a slightly transparent white embroidered shirt, and the long, straight and beautiful legs are wrapped in black fully transparent velvet pantyhose. When the female knight sees her husband coming back, she is about to fall on her body, and quickly stretches out her hands with a slightly red face.
She caught him with her arms and let him rest comfortably on her black silk thighs. The female knight was actually a little tired of the long ocean voyage. Fortunately, Ryan was with her all the time: "Didn't Lord Tigris say it?
It will take more than half a month.”
"Master~ Let me help you relax." Olica was sitting on the other side. The dark elf was wearing a Cattail Violet Xinrui broad-shouldered gentle dress today, paired with pink and white suspender back seam stockings, waist-high.
The dark black hair is full of magic power. The dark elf maid is sitting on the side with a smile. There is a strong excitement in her amber eyes. The dark elf maid's coquettish temperament contrasts with Sulia's graceful and dignified temperament.
, she gently rubbed Ryan's shoulders: "Going to Ulthuan is not that easy. Master, in addition to a long voyage, you also need the guidance of a high elf navigator to reach Lothern."
"It's so troublesome~" Ryan saw that it was inconvenient for Olica to rub his shoulders, so he sat up. He directly picked up the dark elf and put it on his lap. He hugged Olika like a pillow face to face.
, burying his head in Olika's broad chest: "I have nothing to do, I really want to sleep until Ulthuan."
Orica in Ryan's arms is just like a little taro ball, lovable.
"Master, can you rest casually?" Orica didn't struggle at all, but obediently kicked off her black high-heeled shoes and shrank into Ryan's arms. She said delicately: "Master, have you not thought about it yet?
, what should we do? How to deal with the relationship with the high elves?"
"We'll wait until we get there." Ryan hugged his soft and fragrant pillow and smiled at Sulia: "Sulia, how are you? Do you regret following me? Life at sea is boring, right?"
"The place where you are is the fun place." Sulia looked at Orica who was acting coquettishly in Ryan's arms with some sourness. The female knight was a little reserved about her identity and just leaned on her husband's shoulder: "I volunteered
Come here, why, you want to leave me behind?"
"How dare you, you are my wife." Ryan couldn't stop laughing. He looked at the narrow environment in the ironclad suite. The living room was just enough for a table, a row of sofas, and two wardrobes. It only took a few steps to reach the end. Knight
The king also put his arm around the female knight's shoulders: "That's good."
"What's good? Really, you won't let the dwarf make you an extra bedroom!" Sulia said with some displeasure. The Knight Queen was indeed a little unhappy about this matter.
To put it simply, since the king's suite only has one bedroom, the female knight was recently forced to play military chess with Orica and Ryan...in the bedroom at night.
"A battleship is a battleship after all. The main purpose is to fight, not to be used as a hotel!" Ryan was still quibbling. The King of Knights hugged Olica, let her back against him, and then hugged the dark elf's waist.
, reached out and gently kneaded Orica's delicate white silk jade feet, and the king said casually: "It's the high elves, Teclis's giant Phoenix ship and the Arabi wizard's flagship, the Burning Scimitar, in the cabin.
The inside is made like a palace, ah, I really want a fleet like the high elves."
"Then the master might as well build a black ark!" Orika softly wiped the oil from Ryan, and the dark elf's face turned red: "I know how to perform the sacrificial ceremony. First, sacrifice the souls and flesh of fifty thousand slaves.
Again……"
"Olica! Ryan is the King of Knights, how could he do such a thing!" Sulia quickly interrupted Orica: "We already have an armored ship."
"Yes, the ironclad is enough to deal with our cousins." Seeing that Ryan didn't speak, Orika knew that the master did not agree with her proposal, so she had to say with a little regret: "At least it is enough for now, master, madam, look at Tiger
Reese's Phoenix giant ship is actually a modified Star Dragon giant ship. If the Supreme Mage is not there, the Phoenix giant ship will definitely not be able to defeat this dwarf armored ship like yours."
"Huh? Didn't I hear that the high-level Star Dragon Fleet is the most powerful navy in the world?" Sulia became interested, and the female knight asked casually: "Why do you feel like Olika..."
"The High Elf's Star Dragon Fleet is indeed more powerful than our Druzi's navy, but only if there are dragons!" Orika shook her head mockingly. The Dark Elf obviously disdained the High Elf's so-called navy: "The High Elf still has
How many dragons are left? In the battle in which I was captured, it was only with the escort of the two Sun Dragons and the critical moment of turning the tide of the battle that I was captured. Otherwise, I would have sent those guys to the sea long ago.
Feed the fish."
Both Ryan and Sulia had the intention to ask about Orika's origins again, but the dark elf said nothing more. He just closed his eyes and smiled, and leaned into Ryan's arms without speaking: "Master, madam, if the opportunity is right, I will
I told you."
"Okay!" Ryan smiled maliciously: "Madam, there is still some time before dinner, why don't we three..."
Sulia's face suddenly turned red, and she subconsciously wanted to refuse, but thinking of her experience during this period, the female knight felt that it was meaningless to refuse. When she was in trouble, there was a knock on the door of the suite.
"Your Majesty! Your Excellency Fulgen, Your Excellency Pirazzo, Your Excellency Julius, Your Excellency Felix, Master Jin and others have already boarded the ship. He said he has something to ask you." Davout, the commander of the old Guards, said at the door.
"Okay, tell him to wait a moment, I'll clean up and come right away." Ryan said loudly.
