Continental Hero Senki

The Pontifical Navy of Holy Tyrrhenia (Regia Marina) is the most powerful navy in the South China Sea.

The country itself called Tyrrhenia has the geopolitical advantage of being located on the peninsula. There is no defence anxiety over the sea to the south and the Alpine Mountains to the north, where mountains range from 2,000 to 4,000 metres.

Speaking of the only element of anxiety, it was diplomatic anxiety with the Ostomark Empire, which was made to cede territory by past wars. The question of attribution in the north-eastern region of Tyrrhenia, known as unrecovered Tyrrhenia, was an important diplomatic issue that plagued Tyrrhenia and Ostmarc in this era.

Until it was said that it was a "miracle" that the two countries, which had such problems, had formed an alliance against Christ at the end of August 638 of the Continental Calendar.

This alliance against Christ in the Seventh Ostmark-Christ War, the military support that Ostmark has examined is "dispatch of the Tyrrhenian navy" and the consideration for it is "assignment of the island of Crete in Christ".

Crete is an island on the southern tip of the Aegean Sea. As they say, "The sea north of this island is called the Aegean Sea", Crete is the entrance to and exit from the Aegean Sea. The significance of Tyrrhenian possession of that entrance and exit has the advantage of being able to seal the Second Reich Navy of Christ, which still has power in the eastern waters of the South China Sea, into the Aegean Sea, and of being able to obstruct Christ's trade in the Aegean and South China Sea waters.

For Tyrrhenia, who severely usurps South Sea interests, South Continent interests with Christ, the Crete Island assignment was a very attractive proposal.

It was therefore Pope Benedict Cesare de Borgia II who decided to send a fleet to support the Ostmarc Empire, which was supposed to be a virtual enemy.

The declaration of war on Christ by Benedict II is brought to the Jingu Palace (Hagia Sofia) through the Embassy of Christ in the Papal State. Military executives, including the military secretary, held countermeasures meetings, and this one also decided to send a fleet.

31 August.

From the naval base of the Holy Tyrrhenian Pontifical Army of Perce, a fleet led by Naval Admiral Filippo Vermilio is launched.

And oddly on the same day, a fleet led by General Minis Theodorakis also marched out of the Izmir Naval Base of the Second Reich Army of Christ.

- 14: 30, 3 September 638, Continental Calendar. Pope Navy (Regia Marina) 2nd Fleet Flagship, First Battleship "GUIDE" aft deck.

The fleet, led by General Vermilio, was headed straight for land.

"My lord, we will be arriving in Kerkira shortly"

In response to a report from the Chief Navigator, the man known as His Excellency, Filippo Vermilio, draws the attention of the Chief Navigator as he exposes his discomfort.

"Okay.... Chief sailor, the tide is complicated around Kerkira. Stay at the helm."

"Ha."

The length of the voyage re-grips the steering wheel.

Vermilio sighed at the look. It is not against the master of the voyage, but against the purpose of this voyage.

"I resent Ostmarc for building a naval base here. I feel like shelling right away."

Kerkira is the southernmost island in Ostmarc, and the location where the naval base is located is on the continental side of the island. While that has the advantage of being less exposed to attacks from the outside world and easier to protect the fleet, there is also the difficulty of complicating tide and wind direction with only 2.4 km in the narrowest part between the island and the continent.

"My lord, don't say that. We are also building the Perce Naval Base in the narrowest 3.3 km of the Strait of Messina."

To Vermilio's soliloquy, the vice president answers. At first it was the late word, which takes account of Ostmarc, an ally, but he was unhappy with Vermilio for having shoulders with Ostmarc in the battle ahead.

"It is the job of the samurai to fight, and it is rather the main hope to fight and die. But if you tell me to die for Ostmarc, my presence will be a laugh forever."

"I don't think so..."

The deputy director flaunts his shoulder.

I don't know what Vermilio means by words, not that. No matter how we say that the international situation has changed, Ostmarc, who until last week looked at us as a virtual enemy, joining hands and discussing Christ together, we find ourselves in a complicated mood.

"This is what I would love to do if I were to join hands with Christ to discuss Ostmarc"

"My lord!"

Exactly no further remarks are acceptable. That's what I thought. The vice president screams unexpectedly.

It is still good for military personnel to be dissatisfied with orders. But if you say that you want to discuss Ostmarc against the Pope's orders, you cannot complain if you are charged with anti-life crimes.

"I know, Lieutenant. I'm not going to come this far to discuss Ostmarc. And don't hate Christ."

"... If so, the dwarf won't say anything"

Bearing the anxiety of such generals, Vermilio led a fleet of 36 battleships, cruisers and others combined and some 22,000 soldiers into the port of Kerkira, the Imperial Army of Ostomark.

Regardless, putting all 36 warships in the harbour will not come true. It is therefore normal to anchor some ships offshore after they have been admitted to port.

Below General Vermilio Fleet Command personnel land from the battleship "GUIDE" which has landed the ship on the port (Portside).

Enter the military port of Ostmarc, where the Holy Tyrrhenian Pope was supposed to be a virtual enemy state, and a high-ranking officer steps on the land of Ostmarc. Ostmarc also begins loading supplies into the fleet once and for all.

Given the relations between the two countries, that alone is an event that will remain in the history of war forever as a "historical event".

General Vermilio, who is feeling uncomfortable with such "historical events," was greeted by high-ranking Ostomark army officers and government officials, and by

"I'll see you first, Your Excellency. I am Major Yuzef Waresa, military adviser seconded by the Kingdom of Silesia. I'm here to assist you in your battle."

This is the moment when the odd picture of the situation in the South China Sea emerges here in Kerkira.
