Monarch of Evernight
Chapter 336: Tiger Riding
The fleet consists of dozens of floating boats, which are absolutely enormous on the Continent, and the Expeditionary Army's divisional operational units typically consist of only two or three floating boats for transport and armed dual-use, mostly of models eliminated from the upper continent.
If you look closely, however, you will find that the vast majority of this fleet is passenger and cargo dual-use spacecraft, only three of which are truly combatant, or small speedboats, which in the regular imperial fleet are the first armed boats.
The cargo ship was clearly overloaded, falling underneath a lot of cords and hung up the cargo container in a cumbersome manner. Their flight speed was already slow, and now slower than that of a load-bearing sand beast in a desert, not much faster than that of a load-bearing truck on the ground.
The main ship in the centre of the fleet is a floating boat in the shape of a retro light boat, which gives it the appearance of an upper continent. But materials, sizes, features, and luxury are far less than those of the noble women who are parked in Black Stream right now.
On this floating boat, Dong Chi Peak is looking over the earth from the starboard window.
The everlasting continent has a short day and a long night. Although it is morning, the sun is still blocked by the upper continent, and it does not reach full dawn.
The weather doesn't seem to be great outside and if it's on the deck, you'll feel the humidity and cold coming from the surface. Looking down, the continent beneath the floating boat is dim, and the end of the sight is just a cloud of mist, and you can't see anything. Only from the navigation compass can it be confirmed that it is on the correct route.
A skinny colonel stood next to Dong Qi Feng and said: "This time we launched a large army, and you transported all the troops in a floating boat. Such a soldier is a ghost! Black River City will surely not expect our army to suddenly appear, and even before their period of civil unrest has just passed, you will be able to settle for World War I and leave a classic example for Imperial School textbooks! ”
Dong Qifeng smiled with a smile. "It's nothing, it's just a strange four words. By the time we get to Black River City, if we neglect to be careless, we may have some more losses. ”
Colonel Gao Lean waved his hand and said generously and proudly: "The General has gathered heavy soldiers to attack for thousands of miles. Those mercenaries are nothing but a bunch of people. What can we use to defend ourselves against our fighters?! ”
That sounded very comfortable, Dong Qifeng laughed, “Tell me, after this battle, the Expeditionary Force headquarters guys should be impressed with us, right? ”
Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel, and Major in the command compartment were immediately on their asses.
Only Du Yuanze hesitated to say: "General, you can't be careless. Unlike ordinary mercenary groups, dark fires may be stronger than the main imperial regiment. ”
Dong Qifeng heard, suddenly unhappy, “The last loss was just bad luck, encountering that dark fire just expanded the army. Now that General Yang has given us the updated information, they are just better equipped, there are only a few experts, even the average rank of all the people is not so high, what waves can be turned out! I brought over half the elite family. ”
In addition to this, there are two warlords who are dedicated to dealing with the Dark Fire. Ultimately, the focus of this battle is lightning and beheading tactics. In the anticipation of Dong Qifeng, the mercenary corps, such a crowd, will inevitably defeat the core members after being defeated, and the original officers and soldiers of the 7th division will know which side to stand when they see him so powerful!
As he said, Dong Qifeng snorted, "Even if it was the main army of the Empire, my Dong Jia Jin's equipment and ranks could be completely crushed. It seems that you were scared by the Dalits! ”
Du Yuanze saw Dong Qifeng really angry, his face changed dramatically, hastily accompanied the crime, dare not talk more. He felt a little relieved when he thought of Dong Jia's private army carrying an integrator on the floating boat.
At this point, a major in charge of navigation said: "General, another 50 kilometres to Black River City. Are we ready to land? ”
According to the original battle plan, Dong Jia's army should land at an outlying location of 50 km. This distance exceeds the daily patrol range of Black River City. It can unload the general and equipment without causing alarm in the city. After completing the rest, the army will wave directly to Black River City. This is a very sound operational plan.
But Dong Qifeng waved his hand at this moment, "It's just a bunch of people who swallowed my seventh division, and they must have lost a lot. No need to rest. We'll land five kilometers outside the city and show those fucking Aboriginal bastards how the world works! ”
Around the corner, naturally it's another bumpy tide.
Only in Du Yuanze's heart was he deeply disturbed. He remembered the words of the surname officer who stopped him at the gate of the dark fire. However, the newly obtained information on the dark fire does not indicate that this person has any great identity, yet Du Yuanze does not believe that this person is merely bragging. However, the atmosphere in the boat was fierce at this time, he had just been reprimanded by Dong Qi Feng, and he would not dare to pour this cold water.
Expeditionary Force headquarters.
Shorin was sitting in his office slowly looking at a thick list, the most recent breakdown of top-secret military intelligence and receipt. Such a trivial ex post facto inspection would have been done by a deputy officer, who would have been able to report any omissions to him at most.
But Shaolin was intrigued, and when she closed the folder, she had a rare smile on her face.
Fifteen of the best and most popular women of the Chinese family were classified as top-secret military affairs, along with the arrival of Prince Bo Wang Hou's crowd in Everlasting Night Stream City. Only generals at the rank of deputy commander at the Expeditionary Force headquarters are aware of the exact situation, and the rest of them, etc. carry out their orders according to their duties without knowing the specifics or allowing each other to listen to each other.
In order to prevent leakage of information and ambush by the Dark Ethnic Heavy Forces, the escort and itinerary on the road are arranged by the Third Reich Corps alone, even the commanding commander of the Expeditionary Force's local commander, who does not know the identities of the great figures passing through his territory.
Finally, the noble ladies arrived safely in Black Stream City, and another problem followed.
It is impossible to hide the news that thousands of people have been left empty in such small places, and it is difficult to raise only the surge in daily supplies. The Expeditionary Force headquarters therefore issued a top-secret military order to the entire Three Rivers County, requiring the surrounding cities to give priority to the supply of all kinds of daily necessities to Black River City during this period and not to pry and disseminate information.
Whatever the Expeditionary Army has to say about the Imperial nobility, it does not want these noble women to be in trouble on their own soil. That really belongs to the great trouble of impeachment inspection when death does not affect the power of the family.
The Expeditionary Force headquarters has not forgotten the newly appointed Chief Dong Chi Feng, the 7th division number is still there, the guard area is in Sanhe County, so his name is also on the top-secret military dispatch list. Grassroots personnel, who had no knowledge of local changes, were delivered to the seventh division, the northern district of Black River City.
The door was knocked out, Showringer's deputy walked in, took away the processed documents placed at the corner of the generous desk, and the list would then be placed in the vast archive of documents.
Shorin turned his high back chair in the direction, facing the landing window and looking out at the scene of the Expeditionary Force headquarters that had remained unchanged for 10 years. It is the everlasting night, and every outsider will finally realize this and integrate into the everlasting night rule. There will be no exception to that Yang Qiang, who will soon descend in the sky.
The vast and swollen Dongjia Floating Fleet continues to move forward slowly, slowly appearing in the city's outline on the distant horizon.
Black River City, however, sounded a city-wide martial law alert an hour ago.
That was the message from General Zhang himself of the Third Reich Corps to the Thousand Nights, and the Seventh Division's own defense system sent an alert ten minutes ago with a huge unidentified fleet approaching.
On the perennial mainland, perimeter guards in most ethnic towns consist of ground observation towers, independent checkpoints and village guards, and floating boats, which burn money, are generally used only for targeted reconnaissance and interrogation. Even after Webster took over Black River City, this has not changed, as the value of this theatre can only sustain such military expenditures.
Depending on the terrain, the alert range in all directions of Black River City averages 35 kilometres and is approximately an hour long distance from the ground march. It follows that such a guard would not have been used to defend against air strikes, and that the fleet of the Third Reich Corps escorting your ladies was sufficient to ignore ground defences, both at altitude and speed.
However, on the continent of everlasting night, there is no military objective of such great value as to require an expensive air strike.
However, this urban defense situation is obviously not satisfactory to the third legion. After entering Black Stream City, Zhang himself asked for “coordination” first. There are now two small armed boats within a 30-kilometre radius of Black River City and beyond, flying in uninterrupted circular reconnaissance, while a battleship is constantly suspended over the city.
There is no objection to this for a thousand nights, and the third legion is happy to burn the money.
Dong Jia's floating boat fleet was huge and the cargo boat's flight altitude was insufficient. Almost immediately, traces were discovered by patrol boats of the third legion.
At this time Dong Qi Feng looked at the floating warship above Black Stream City. His face was already a little ugly. He turned to Du Yuanze and asked: “What's going on? You never said the armed floating boat with the dark fire was a light frigate! ”
The size of the floating boat in the distance has indeed reached the frigate level. Even if it is only a light frigate, it is a regular battleship, and after all the performance of the three small gunboats pulled out by the bureaucrat, even a pair of three won't dare to say victory.
Du Yuanze also saw sweat on his forehead. He desperately recalled what type of dark fire floating boat he saw in the panic at the time was. "I had never seen this battleship in the first place, but even if there was a battleship in a place like Forever Night, it must have been a piece of shit that the Imperial Army had eliminated. ”
Dong Qifeng's face looked better. However, his eyes were better than those of the school officials present. The more he looked at the frigate, the more he felt wrong. That looks like a Skylark warship. This is the latest model. The first batch was made less than 10 years ago. How can it be decommissioned?
However, at this time, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and even if the perimeter sentry is not released at all at this distance, their fleet can be seen in the city's observation tower. Dong Qifeng stared at the frigate for a while. He had intended to fly the floating fleet to the Black River City to suppress his opponents, and the idea of fighting for the defenceless and humiliating soldier didn't fly.
He immediately ordered: "Escort in front of the gunboat, landing the ship on site, and the entire army is assembled within half an hour! Go get the elders, please. ”
