Chapter 447 Scarlet’s Meteor (3800 words)
Southern Continent “Treasure Tree Bay”, co-managed by the Tulip Alliance The large bastion “Teddadis Fort”.
Captains’ exclusive recreation room.
A capable officer with short brown hair and wearing a military uniform of the Kingdom of Taro put down the expired newspaper and sincerely admired another captain next to him:
“Hey, Captain Geer, your family is really an amazing person!”
For them who have been in the remote areas of Southern Continent all the year round, in addition to the internal newspapers of the military, they can only pass These expired newspapers to learn about the news on the other two continents.
And this “Beckerle Post” used a whole main page to praise Brigadier General Alwin Garriott, the deputy chief of the new continent garrison, and that he led his subordinates to capture the secret mastermind and solve the new continent’s violent Great contribution to infectious diseases.
In recognition of his achievements, the Imperial Family Medical Society has prepared to award him a Hippocracker Level 1 Medal that has not been awarded for at least three years.
The several captains who were stationed in the fleet heard this with a smile:
“If my son can be half as good as Commodore Garriott, I can wake up laughing in my dreams.”
“Me too!”
“By the way, Colonel Gere, let’s find a chance to let the younger generation sit together. My daughter is beautiful and a talented student of Tulip Art Academy Eh, eh, why are you dragging me?”
As colleagues who have worked with Geer for a long time, they are of course well aware of the relationship between the two. Although they have different surnames, the brigadier general is actually no different from the elder son of the Geer family.
Some people have also obtained several high-quality potions from Gore, which are extremely difficult to obtain from the kingdom channel. Don’t think about it, they are all from the hands of Alwin, who has not forgotten his Uncle after he developed.
Ger, who was enjoying the treatment of all the stars cup themselves around the moon, was also a little emotional. He originally predicted that Alwin would become a general within ten years. How long has it been since then, it’s time for your uncle and nephew to be expensive?
But this feeling is really not bad!
Ger’s eyes passed through the windows of the bastion and across the endless black sea with blooming waves, as if he saw the vast continent on the other side of the sea.
“This is probably far from your limit, isn’t it? Alwin. However, I should be almost there, so I can break through when the garrison mission is over!”
subconsciously touched In the pocket, follow closely the bottle of amber medicine.
“Baoshu Bay” is located 2300 kilometers north of Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point of the continent.
When the countries just started to colonize the Southern Continent, it was arid and rainy, and this area with a subtropical, semi-desert climate was simply a barren land.
But the Tulip Alliance, a latecomer to the colonization, is not qualified to be picky at all.
After taking up a piece of land that is better than nothing in the Zaire Basin, I have no choice but to continue to explore the places that the powerful countries disdain.
Maybe it’s really time to turn, but in this barren land at the southern end of the continent, they have discovered two great treasures one after another!
One of them is the Witwatersrand Basin found in the central plateau.
Among them, there is a gold-bearing conglomerate belt with a length of hundreds of kilometers. On average, each ton of gold-bearing conglomerate can produce 10 grams of gold. The total proven gold reserves are 12,000 tons. It is called the Lande Gold Mine.
It was also one of the foundations of the initial rise of the kingdom of Ilya after the discovery of new routes.
Later, as the proven reserves of the gold mine continued to increase, the Ilya royal family soon realized that it was difficult to swallow it alone, so through the exchange of many interests, finally the Tulip Union countries had a share in the gold mine.
It also gathers the power of the entire tulip to firmly occupy here!
The other is “Baoshu Bay” on the west coast.
Even if the climate, soil and geographical location here are even harsh, they are not suitable for large Qiao Musheng growers at all. But after the wizards’ investigation, this is actually the key “magic element” node of the entire continent.
The extraordinary strength has created a group of oak trees of extraordinary quality – “iron oak”.
“Iron oak”, as a high level shipbuilding material, is excellent in terms of hardness, toughness and water swelling rate. Among them, the highest quality existence is called “Treasure Tree”, which is an extraordinary material that can be used to build Legendary battleship, and is also the origin of the name “Treasure Tree Bay”.
Legendary battleships existed before the first true battleships were launched, due to the bonus of extraordinary power. One to the battleship classification of Level 6, but also after this.
Then.
The battle over “Baoshu Bay” is also the most intense, and the big gold mine may also need to weigh the consequences of a one-to-six match. But “Baoshu Bay” is like a natural nuclear arsenal in this era. It is an existence that a powerful country will have a share of no matter how much it pays!
In particular, Tulip discovered this treasure very late, after the new continent’s colonial pattern was established.
At that time, Cyrus already possessed the capital of the hegemon, carrying the infinite power to destroy the two great native empires of the Atrians in one fell swoop, and his style of conduct gradually became more domineering. However, the desert kingdom of Heimar has gradually become self-sufficient, lying on a privileged geographical location and eating his own money.
We fought a dozen large and small battles with Cyrus, Tulip Union, and Atlan, the big forces who were qualified to take a bite.
Finally, their respective interests in “Baoshu Bay” were fixed in the form of a paper contract.
As the first discoverers, the three kingdoms of Ilya, Phalates, and Taro, who are the strongest tulips, have substantial jurisdiction over this place.
In total, they account for 30% of the treasure tree and 50% of the Ordinary Level iron oak.
The price is to give the overlord Cyrus Kingdom 50% of the treasure tree and 10% of the Ordinary Level iron oak as a tribute (Alfonso Peninsula already has the best quality oak forest in the source continent, and even scholar It is believed that the rise of Cyrus was due to the choice of heaven.)
After a portion is set aside for the tulip dukedom alone, the rest is divided between the Atlan and the other tulip nations.
Even with contractual constraints, for these shares are guaranteed.
In normal times, each of the Three Kingdoms of Tulips stationed a Great Knight in this not too big place. Under the common sharing of military power, it maintained the power of three third rank Great Knights and a quasi-Legendary all year round. battle strength.
The specs are comparable to their colony in the new continent.
But.
With the further turmoil in the domestic situation, the third rank of the Kingdom of Ilya has left early, apparently busy standing in line.
While the other two countries are a little angry, they are not surprised. The Great Knights who have advanced title potential and are loyal to Ilya have all been summoned back to work hard to succeed the kingdom and protect the continuation of the country. .
I know with my butt that those who are still wandering outside are either the new aristocrats who have taken refuge in, or the grass on the wall that has fallen with the wind.
The negative consequences of the emptiness of the battle strength are borne by the other two countries, and now only two Great Knights from the Kingdom of Pharetis and Taro are supported, plus a quasi-Legendary battleship belonging to the Kingdom of Taro.” Five Masted Peaks”.
Obviously, not only the allies were aware of the situation of Ilya, but also the Cyrus.
So.
When war comes.
It was so unexpected for them, but also so as it should be by rights.
Call—
The scorching sea breeze in the subtropical region blew the flag and made a loud noise.
“Fire!”
“Kill—!”
On the vast sea outside the “Baoshu Bay”, two battle lines lined up like long snakes. The lines were anxiously pouring out firepower at each other.
bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! bang!
The thunderous artillery fire made the sea tremble and hearts trembled.
Dense smoke billowed, and battleship capsized from time to time. Under the bloody sunset glow, it seems that the whole sea is burning, and I don’t know if there are several points of sunset glow and blood!
But the Cyrus people who came well prepared, both in the battleship level and the strength of the transcender, obviously stabilized the alliance with more than one end.
Even after the division of troops, a joint sea and land attack was launched against several main targets at the same time. But “Baoshu Bay” and “Rand Gold Mine” are undoubtedly the absolute top priority.
The “Baoshu Bay” is not only stationed with the strongest military force, but also commanded by the peak Great Knight Griffith.
At the same time as starting the battle line and queuing up.
This pinnacle Great Knight handed over the command to the deputy commander of the King’s Party, Gang Knight Kungang Taita, and he successfully suppressed the two Great Knights of Pharetis and Taro Kingdom by himself. join forces.
On the outskirts of the bay, the swift as wind “Red Maple” also imprisoned the quasi-Legendary battleship “Five-masted Peak” in the Kingdom of Taro, which has the dual abilities of [unbreakable] and [self-healing]. firmly suppressed.
At this time, the only thing the Tulip Fleet can rely on is the bravery and determination of the soldiers who dare to seize the upper hand and retreat!
Seeing that the situation seems to be too critical to handle.
Tread..Tread..Tread..
Two silhouettes wearing wizard robes with strong technical temperament have come to the Second Layer, the strongest bastion, It is also the turret layer of the bastion.
A huge tarpaulin was opened, revealing a golden light running down below, a ferocious artillery like Hegemon compared to ordinary artillery.
The current Cyrus is not the Cyrus of the past, and Phaletis is obviously no longer the Phaletis.
Alchemy wizards from the “Eye of Violet”, although most of them are not good at frontal combat, but no one can underestimate their war potential.
This [Alchemy Cannon] is powered by alchemy stone and uses all the most advanced artillery technology.
The caliber reaches 203.2 mm, the muzzle length is 9300 mm, and the combat weight is 17000kg. The muzzle velocity is 933 m/s and the rate of fire is 2 rounds/min. The weight and range of the projectile launched are: conical bottom concave projectile, the projectile weight is 95.9 kg, and the maximum range is 40 kilometers.
Although it cannot be installed on any sail battleship due to terrifying recoil and dead weight, the large bastion is an excellent carrier for it, equivalent to another immobile quasi-Legendary.
Boom—!
With a loud noise that seemed to shatter the sky, a Level 3 ship running rampant on the sea in the distance was slammed through a large hole several meters in diameter, and the turbulent sea water poured down the lost rescuer. value.
A half-minute later, another Level 3 ship in the Cyrus line of battle followed suit.
And Cyrus’ reaction was also extremely fast.
In five or six small mortar boats (carrying two 330mm caliber mortars, capable of firing 200lb/90kg shells with a range of 2700 meters, generally used to attack and defend large ships under the cover of docks and port cities that ships cannot approach).
Another Great Knight in the Cyrus fleet, Kungang Taita, already wearing Knight heavy armor, rushed to the port like a steel rhino, and went straight to the “Alchemy” on the bastion. artillery”.
bang! bang! bang!
He stepped on the ground with heavy steel boots, and each foot could step on rubble. Facing the bastion, which was no longer protected by the power of third rank, there was a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth.
“Haha, wizard die!”
Seeing such a scene.
Ger, who was commanding the battle on the “May Wind” in the battle line, narrowed his eyes slightly.
Both sides of the battle are very clear at this moment that the key to the battle situation at this moment is not the quasi-Legendary battleship, not the battle line, not the three Great Knights, only the [Alchemy Cannon] is the only hope for the alliance side to come back !
But if a third rank Great Knight were to rush into the bastion without any hindrance and start a killing spree, it would be impossible to resist the weapons in the hands of ordinary soldiers before they changed qualitatively.
The gap between the official Knight and the Great Knight is more than just an extra kind of extraordinary energy?
Second Rank may also be pushed back by flintlock muskets, or even surrounded by musket arrays in the event of a deadly fight. But when it comes to the third rank, especially the third rank with full body armor, even if one person slaughtered an army, there is no problem.
If the bastion falls, there is no second chance except for the great rout and massacre.
The alliance has no way out at this time!
Looking at the battleships around him that were sunk by the heavy artillery of Level 3 ships and his colleagues who were dying at any time, Gehr gritted his teeth and loudly shouted: “First mate Perry is in charge of the battle.”
p>
He took out the bottle of amber-colored potion with his body temperature and poured it into his mouth. It was the precious potion “giant beast’s breath” that could increase the probability of peak Knight’s promotion.
[Physical liberation – 100%! 】
【Extraordinary Profound Truth ·Iron flow! ]
A [Rhino Horn Amulet] presented by Alwin on his waist suddenly lit up, and his power was increased again.
Boom—! ! !
Next moment, the raging Battle Qi flame has erupted in his body like a volcano!
Whoosh—
Under the disbelieving gazes of both the enemy and the enemy, a Crimson’s meteor rubbed the sea and rushed towards the bastion of the port.
However, it contains formidable power like a volcanic eruption, plus the same. Chaos and tyranny!
