Chapter 592 Humanitarian Relief

The United Kingdom of the Fox Islands went crazy. Half a year ago, it was the country with the most colonies on the west coast of the mainland of Nubia. As a result, in the past few months, its three colonies have disappeared. What surprised him most was that the three colonies were not in the hands of the overseas dominions of the enemy they were most guarding against, but the allies they were drawn to, the pirates who had taken up the shares ...

The originally thought allies had two blades of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands behind them. The central colony and the colony of the port of Puerto Russell at the southern end were annexed and occupied by the colonial authorities of the Principality of Leorio and Opusaro City Union. Where the United Kingdom of the archipelago is stimulated, these two colonies have operated for many years, have many immigrants, and are rich in products. They are the most reliable logistic support base between the kingdom's powerful navy and the two continents.

The occupation of the Weidnes Seaport Colony by the Blacksail Pirates is another bad news, except that this colony is located at the northern end and is remote. It is a mining resource collection site in the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands. There are not many immigrants, except for ore carriers and slave merchants, few other merchant ships come to trade ...

If the kingdom does not want to turn this colony into a shipbuilding base capable of producing armored warships, it will invest in large-scale infrastructure construction. But all this was destroyed by the black sail pirates. After being plundered by the black sail pirates, this colony was forgotten by the top of the kingdom, but he did not expect that the black sail islands returned silently in a circle to return Occupied this colony.

The United Kingdom of the Fox Islands, which lost all its colonies, was like an ant in a wok, restless, and sent three special envoys to the overseas autonomy within three months. The first envoy waved a bank draft to order twelve second-generation iron armored warships and delivered them six months later. The second special envoy came to negotiate the training of ironclad warships in the autonomous region. They paid 100,000 kronor for the autonomous region to agree to use Rodex Bay as a training base.

The third special envoy also came from the Dominion Command to purchase artillery equipped on the second-generation iron armored warships, but unfortunately the Dominion Command no longer produced the kind of heavy guns loaded with solid projectiles in the front. Fortunately, more than a dozen armed smuggling merchant ships seized by General Murray's ocean-going transport fleet were also equipped with this gadget, and ordered the collection of these guns to meet the requirements of the third envoy ... .

Twelve months later, the Twelve Iron Armored Ships customized by the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands in the Autonomous Territory were gathered in the Gulf of Rhodes. The trainees were trained, and the Iron Armored Ships were also full of coal. He is directing the fleet to set sail to recapture the lost colony.

However, Claude is not optimistic about what the second-generation Iron Armored Fleet of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands can do to the north. The main reason is that this kingdom is too serious. Now it is no longer an era when a powerful naval fleet can cover the world. It depends on the navy. , The United Kingdom of the Fox Islands cannot recapture the lost colonies, even if it is recaptured ...

Unsurprisingly, the first target of the Iron Armoured Fleet of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands was the colony of Port Lupsel, annexed by the Opsaro City-State Alliance. However, the Opsaro City-State Alliance does not have a strong navy, nor does it intend to enter a decisive battle with the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands. On the contrary, they may be ashamed. They took the initiative to evade the front of the Iron Armored Fleet of the Fox Kingdom, moved urban residents within 30 miles of the coast to the inland, and implemented a sea embargo. Tossing inside the land ...

Nothing to toss, empty seaport town, nothing, unless the team advances inland. But the weakest part of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands is the Army. Leaving a battleship and marching inland is seen by naval officers as death. Therefore, after two or three days of tossing along the coast of Puerto Russell colony, I felt boring and ordered to return to the sea. This time, the target was the central colony occupied by the Principality of Rerioro. Hundreds of thousands of immigrants from the Fox Kingdom should be able to get help and recover their lost land.

However, the Principality of Rerioro built defensive facilities such as sturdy forts in seaport towns along the central colony, and launched an artillery battle with the Iron Fleet of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands. At the same time, another generation of ironclad warships attacked, and saw harassing warfare against the ironclad fleet. As a result, three days and two nights passed, the Iron Armored Fleet of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands took the initiative to evacuate, and then insisted that the food bombs and fuel were exhausted, and the Iron Armed Fleet was about to be captured by the enemy ...

Now the remaining supplies of the Iron Armored Fleet are enough to insist on a trip to the Weedes Seaport Colony. As long as this colony can be recovered, all supplies and ammunition can be replenished. Naval officers in the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands have never so desperately hoped that they can have a seaport as a base on the west coast. I believe that the Blacksail Pirates will not always be the opponents of the Iron Armored Fleet. Under normal circumstances, the pirates will turn around and run away when they see the regular navy of a country.

However, the Blacksail Pirates seem to regard the Wedders Hills Seaport Colony as their own site, built the turrets of the coastal ports, constructed the waterways in and out of the seaports, and displayed the courage and courage of the Iron Fleet of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands. determination. So the battle started again. The sailors of the Iron Armored Fleet, who had been drifting on the sea for a long time, were in low morale, and did not have the final determination to fight the Black Sail Pirates and the dedication of heroically fighting the battlefield ...

The black sail pirate's iron armored warship was dispatched, and the shells of the two sides passed by in the air, leaving traces of shells of different sizes and depths on the respective iron armored ship's deck. A black sail pirate's iron armored ship rushed not far from a second-generation iron armored ship of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands, about ten to twenty meters away, braving fierce gunfire. Several black sail pirates Put a shark specimen made of an iron shell into the water, point it at the second-generation iron armored warship, and then light the fire rope on it ...

The shark specimen looked like a fire rope, and a black smoke appeared on the back of the iron shell. Then the thing moved in the sea water and rushed to the second-generation iron armored warship not far away. The speed was not fast. . It was just that the officers and men of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands did not know what this thing was, and the dazzling looked like a sea monster, so they watched this shark specimen look hit the bottom of the second-generation iron armored warship.

A huge explosion sounded, and the water spray was more than ten meters above the battleship. The second-generation iron armored battleship seemed to be slammed by a train and began to tilt to the other side. The damage management staff of the bilge climbed up and reported that the violent explosion just now caused a large crack in the welded part of the bottom of the battleship. The seawater surged in. The steam power machinery of the bilge had been submerged and the battleship had flooded too much water. I haven't saved everyone, let's run away ...

Four violent explosions scrapped three second-generation iron armored battleships in the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands. There was also a lucky one. The crack was blocked by the damage management staff, and other warships were pulled away from the battlefield. The nine ironclad fleets of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands, who lost their battles and left the battlefield, finally arrived at the colony of the Principality of Fedro before the fuel ran out, and repaired and rested in the harbour here ...

The colony of the Principality of Fedro does not produce blackstone coal mines. The United Kingdom of the Fox Islands can only pay for a large amount of charcoal to be loaded on ships for fuel. The nine wounded second-generation iron armored warships returned to the Autonomous Leadership Zone, at the port of Wibator After repairing the warship at the shipbuilding base, a large number of marine steam-powered machinery and propeller spindle configurations were purchased and returned to the Fox Islands. For the next few decades, the fleet of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands has never been to the West Coast ...

In front of Claude, a drawing of the shark specimen that the Blacksail Pirates used to attack the Fox Kingdom iron armored battleship has been placed. What Claud didn't expect is that this thing is called an active mine ...

Whose name? Before I had a name, Claude picked up his pen and changed it to a torpedo. Anyway, he looked at a shark like a torpedo, and it was fine. It is said that this gadget is a masterpiece of a rune mage under Eriksson. The guy originally wanted to make mines that can guard the rabbit in the water, but he could not make a device to control the time of mine explosion. Simply create active mines that can crash into warships directly, so this kind of active mines like shark specimens appeared.

The structure of this mine is very simple, with a long cylindrical appearance like a shark, and two shark fins on the outside for balance. The head is full of gunpowder and an impact trigger device, and the tail is a small propeller plus spring torsion. After putting it into the water, tighten the spring of the spring torsion plate, and the whole mine can be pushed forward in the water. Of course, the distance is not long, which is about twenty meters. The speed is not fast, it is almost as fast as walking on the ground alone. If the warship finds it early, it can be avoided ...

If you can't avoid it, the mine will explode at the moment when it hits the ship's board. This explosion basically happens underwater. The water pressure generated by the explosion tears the welding gap of the ship's board, causing the ship's board to leak to the bottom The cabin flooded and sank. However, this thing seems to have no threat to the third and fourth generation of armored warships of the Dominion Navy, because the domes of the Dominion armored warships have a water tank design, and a leak like this will not have any effect on the warship ... ..

This should be regarded as the most primitive torpedo, and Claude instructed to pay attention to this weapon and invest funds for renewal-like tests and improvements in order to reach a practical level as soon as possible. His requirements are very simple. This torpedo can be launched by a warship. The firing distance can reach one kilometer, and the speed can be more than twice that of an iron armored warship. ....

Except that the original torpedo of the Blacksail Pirate gave Claude an unexpected surprise, he was not very interested in Claude's encounter with the Iron Armored Fleet of the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands. A kingdom that had lost all its colonies and was not strong in the army wanted to rely on the Iron Armored Fleet to recover its lost land. It was a dream. In particular, its enemies also had a fleet of iron armored warships, which could not even block the sea, let alone a seaport base with no supply. How could it be possible to recover the three lost colonies?

Now it ’s time to do your own work in the Autonomous Regional Command. After the reorganization, the Hicks Volunteer Corps and the Thunder Corps have been arranged. They will soon join a standing army of the Pamiral National Republic against the neighboring Vasilico. On the Principality colonies, two indigenous peoples, the Scoots and the Githites, are still carrying out humanitarian relief, halting their ethnic killings, and incorporating the Duchy of Wasilik into orderly social security.

Speaking of which two indigenous peoples, the Skorean and the Gist people, have been killing each other for about four years. The two indigenous peoples that had a total population of nearly five million now have less than two million. Many, it is said that more than one million old and young Scoots and Gist men and women ran to the Opsaro City-States Colony and became refugees. It can be said that the population was artificially reduced by two million people during the four-year-old feud between two indigenous peoples.

At present, the two indigenous peoples, the Skorean and the Gist ([apex novel www.xbooktxt.me]), are building their own villages in the mountainous and hilly areas they occupy to protect themselves, almost returning to the life of the primitive people. Refuse to communicate with outsiders. Without living supplies, they went out and robbed in droves. This is why the Duchy of Vasilico was forced to abandon the colony after two failed expeditions, because the local guards were not the opponents of these fierce indigenous people at all, and the casualties were very high. Big.

However, just after the autonomous region together with the Pamigars issued a so-called humanitarian relief operation against the two indigenous peoples of the Duchy of Vasilico, to stop the mutual hatred between the two indigenous peoples and build a harmonious and happy life together , The Thunder Corps, the Hicks Volunteer Corps, and a Pamigar standing army entered the colony of the Duchy of Vasilico with great fanfare, destroying all the barricades built by the two indigenous peoples found, replacing the two indigenous The nations were segregated on the east and west sides of the colony.

Within three months, the entire Duchy of Vasilico had been swept away, and all indigenous peoples had been isolated in two camps. However, the two Legion of the Autonomous Army continued to advance, and soon entered the colony of the Opsaro City-State Alliance. The colonial authorities of the Opsaro City-State Alliance havetily sent troops to block the way, and sent a special envoy to the frontline command of the Autonomous Territory to discuss this issue of entering the border ...

It was only that General Beechklin, the commander-in-chief of the Frontline Command of the Autonomous Regional Command, did not think that this was a problem of entering the border. He requested the colonial authorities of the Opsaro City-State Alliance to immediately clear the way and cooperate with the troops of the Autonomous Regional Command to completely solve the problem. The hatred of the two indigenous peoples, the Luo and the Gist people.

Because in the process of sweeping the Vasilico Principality colony, the Autonomous Military Command has found many clues that it is the Opsaro City-State Alliance colonial authorities behind them to persuade the Scoro and Gist people to kill each other, which ultimately led to Vasilico. A humanitarian catastrophe between two indigenous peoples in the Principality colony, two million indigenous people died of violence and slaughter between each other.

The special envoy of the Opsaro City-State Alliance colony authorities shouted of wrongdoing and impossibility. He protested that the so-called humanitarian relief of the Autonomous Territory was actually a way to invade the Opsaro City-State Alliance colony. General Beechklin laughed, even if there was any way to invade you. Don't forget that we still have evidence to prove that the culprit behind this indigenous people's hatred in the Duchy of Vasilico is you. For peace, I hope you will lay down your arms and surrender ...

This is naturally impossible. The colonial authorities of the Opsaro City-State Alliance immediately mobilized local defensive forces to build a defensive front, but all this could not withstand the front of the Thunder and Hicks Volunteers. The standing army of the three Opsaro city-state alliances collapsed at once, and even many officers and men immediately erected white flags as soon as they were attacked.

So when the Thunder Corps captured the Russel Port colony, which was lost by the United Kingdom of the Fox Islands to the colonial authority of the Opsaro City-State Alliance, it was suddenly discovered that there were two more surrendered Opsaro City-state officers and soldiers. ....

The indigenous peoples of the original Opsaro City-States Colony were also Scolo and Gist, the same as the two indigenous peoples of the Duchy of Vasilico. Following the violent massacres between the indigenous peoples Skoll and Gist in the Duchy colony of Vasilico, the colonial authorities of the Opsaro City-State Alliance immediately closed the border between the two countries and settled within their colonies. The two indigenous peoples of the United States strictly guarded against death and violent repression, so that the two indigenous peoples imitated the will of their neighbors in neighboring colonies to kill each other.

The Autonomous Territory refers to the deer as a horse, and insists that the Opsaro City-State Alliance colonial authorities are the masters of the two indigenous peoples who hate each other. Indeed, they have been wronged.

And after the Occupation of the Opsaro City-State Alliance Colony by the Autonomous Leadership Region, a large migration plan was implemented, which was to relocate all the Skoreans to the former colony of the Vasilisk Principality, and then relocate all Gistrists to Op. The Salo City-State Alliance colony allowed these two hostile indigenous peoples to occupy one colony. Two high border walls were built at the border of the two colonies, 300 meters apart. Except for a limited number of passes, anyone who appears in the rest of the space between the two side walls will be shot and killed by soldiers on both sides.

This is how the Skallo National Republic and the Gist Solidarity Union were formed, and these two indigenous nation states have been regarded as deadly rivals from the beginning. As for the Port Russel colony, the indigenous peoples who also called themselves Lanstorbuks established the Russel Free Confederation, and the Autonomous Territory leased the famous deep-water Liangpu Lupu from the Lanstorbuks. As the second naval port base on the west coast, Celle has a lease period of ninety-nine years ...
