It was the time when the corporation battle between the United Fleet of the Imperial Straits and the plane of the gods was in full swing, Lingdun City, the current imperial capital of the United Empire.
No. 19, Shenghui Avenue, this is the residence of Reginald Roberts, the "Duke of the Mist Mountain".
The Roberts family used to be one of the six Great Councilors of the Luying Empire, and now the Grand Duke Roberts is the Minister of Military Aircraft of the United Empire.
Half a month ago, the Imperial Intelligence Organization received top-secret information that the magicians of the Celestial Plane had a secret plan to cross the sea. The Imperial Command immediately made a decision to let the joint fleet led by the two Marshals "Thunder Tiger" Meredith Ben Moses and Admiral Rostov set sail secretly. While the enemy's fleet was still being formed, raid their ports.
Once the surprise attack is successful, not only will it greatly delay the time for those guys from the Celestial Plane to invade Luying, but it will also greatly boost their low morale.
Although the risk is not small, it must be fought.
However, I didn't expect that the bad news came just last night.
When the United Fleet hadn't reached the scheduled sea area, it suddenly lost contact.
Everyone guessed that maybe it was a storm, maybe it was a special magnetic field... temporarily lost contact.
However, as one of the decision makers of the entire surprise attack, Archduke Roberts had an increasingly bad premonition that the fleet might have encountered an ambush.
You don't have to think about losing contact with a well-equipped fleet of more than 200,000 people. Only those enemies on the plane of the gods can do it.
But Lu Ying didn't know much about such a top-secret plan, and it was exposed in advance, which is very weird.
And this situation also means that some of their internal high-level, there may be a big problem.
At noon, the sun is very good.
In the garden of the manor, Grand Duke Roberts with a gray mustache was drinking coffee, looking at the charts that he had been studying all night, the sadness on his brows never dissipated.
At this time, a handsome young man in a straight military uniform walked into the garden from a distance, and said with concern: "My lord, you haven't rested all night. I think you should sleep instead of drinking a few more drinks coffee."
This is Alex, the eldest son of the Roberts family.
Grand Duke Roberts looked at his son with a smile on his face.
He didn't respond to the coffee question, but instead asked, "Alex, when do you plan to hold your wedding with Karma?"
The father and son seemed to have a tacit understanding. Alex did not answer this question, but said something else: "Father, I am here to say goodbye to you this time. I am going to join the reinforcement fleet to go to the Empire." The strait will set sail tonight."
Hearing this, Grand Duke Roberts was not too surprised.
He watched his son grow up since he was a child, he didn't know what he was thinking, he just said: "Your mother means..."
Before he finished speaking, Alex thought his father wanted to persuade him, and interrupted: "No, my lord father, I have made up my mind. I am a soldier of the empire, and our Roberts family is also a member of the alchemy civilization. Those of us who used to The great aristocrats have the best resources and the best equipment. I shouldn’t be at the end of this civilized disaster. I should be at the forefront of the battlefield right now!”
The words are sonorous and powerful, and they are loud.
Hearing this, Grand Duke Roberts looked at his son with relief in his eyes: "As expected, he is the eldest son of our Roberts family. But I don't want to persuade you."
After a pause, he said again: "I mean, before you go to the front line, it's best to hold the wedding.
Such a good girl, you can’t let her down.”
Listening to his father's words, Alexis also had a strange expression on his face, and said, "I asked Karma what she meant. Now that the empire is in danger, she said that everything should be kept simple. And I will also let her go to the front line." Having said that, she is very supportive of my decision.”
"Um."
Archduke Roberts didn't say any more after listening, "Then be careful."
If the building falls, no one is safe from it.
What's more, as the Minister of Military Aircraft
The eldest son, this sensitive juncture cannot be flinched.
Alex nodded: "I see, my lord father."
…
The father and son were chatting in the garden, but at this moment, there was a flash of light in the yard, and suddenly a figure appeared.
Being able to avoid the guards of the manor, it is obvious that this is a professional assassin who is very skilled in stealth.
Grand Duke Roberts' eyes froze slightly, as if he was not surprised, his expression remained calm.
Alexis on the side frowned, looked at the uninvited guest, and asked coldly, "Who are you?!"
The person who came didn't lift his hood, giving people the feeling of being cold and mysterious like a poisonous snake.
He looked at the father and son, and said coldly: "It doesn't matter who I am. But the important thing is that I can bring you a piece of news that you may be interested in, Your Excellency the Grand Duke."
Grand Duke Roberts's expression changed for a moment when he heard it, as if he had guessed the identity of the person coming, he said lightly: "Oh? Tell me."
The mysterious man saw that the other party was interested in listening, and seemed to laugh, and said: "I can tell you a piece of information very responsibly, this time the United Fleet is doomed not to return. I heard that your son is going to reinforce the front line... The news is also a reminder to you."
Upon hearing this, before Archduke Roberts could speak, the expression of Alex on the side changed suddenly.
If this guy dares to say that, it is certain... The fleet has been attacked!
Sure enough, there was an inner ghost among them, and someone leaked the plan of the fleet's surprise attack to the people in the plane of the gods.
And this guy in front of him is one of the inner ghosts!
He originally wanted to summon the guards of the manor to arrest this guy for interrogation, but he glanced at his father beside him from the corner of his eye, and suppressed the anger and stood where he was.
Archduke Roberts still looked calm.
He thought for a moment, then just asked: "Your Excellency is a member of the Tianmu Sect?"
The mysterious man seemed to smile and said, "Master Duke, it doesn't matter who I am. The important thing is that I can give you some advice."
Archduke Roberts glanced at him with interest.
The mysterious man said again: "If the Duke is willing to cooperate, someone will come to discuss some details with you. Of course, you should have guessed that I am just a small character, and behind me is a force that no one can resist. So I can assure you that once you agree to cooperate, you and your Roberts family will be sheltered at all times."
Grand Duke Roberts listened, but he already knew that he couldn't find any useful news.
But he smiled, and said, "Tsk tsk... I'm curious, traitors to alchemy civilization, surrendered as slaves, for you people, is it really not shameful at all?"
Hearing this, the mysterious man's tone became murderous: "Your Excellency refused?"
Grand Duke Roberts was not afraid at all, he already guessed the identity of the visitor, instead he sneered and said, "The former "Top Ten Legendary Bounty Hunters", Carlo Merdis, the "King of Thieves", has become a slave of the Outer God Sect, it's ridiculous ridiculous. "
He said, "If I were you, I would run away quickly. Maybe I can survive for a few more days. Tsk tsk, a seventh-level assassin, do you really think that you can go anywhere in Lingdun?"
As soon as these words came out, the mysterious man seemed to have noticed something, and the expression under the hood changed suddenly.
He didn't dare to stay any longer, his figure was gradually becoming transparent.
However, before leaving, he did not forget to threaten: "Hmph, you don't know the current affairs! You and your family will regret your decision today!"
Grand Duke Roberts didn't stop the other party from escaping, his expression was still indifferent, but his eyes were a little more pensive.
…
Lu Ying and Marfa now formed a United Empire. After Catherine took the throne, she carried out a series of drastic reforms.
It can be said that the overall national strength of the United Empire today is much stronger than that of the Bona royal family.
There is also the Imperial Strait as a natural barrier, even if those guys on the plane of the gods want to disintegrate the alchemy civilization, it is impossible in a short time.
So it is no surprise that Grand Duke Roberts will be approached by someone.
As the minister of military aircraft, the intelligence and resources he possessed could almost be said to be the lifeline of half the empire, and the enemy would naturally not give up on him as a breakthrough.
Watching the enemy flee, Alex asked: "My lord father, don't we go after him?"
Grand Duke Roberts shook his head, as if everything was under control: "He can't escape. His Majesty has already guessed that someone will definitely come to the door at this juncture, and he has been prepared for it."
Alex: "Your Majesty?"
"That's right. His Majesty has the largest intelligence organization, the Military Intelligence Service, in his hands. How could he not know about the situation in Lingdun?"
As the Grand Duke Roberts said, a strange color appeared in his eyes.
Although Ekaterina once had to call herself uncle, he also had to admit that this is a convincing emperor.
He couldn't help but sighed: "Her Majesty Ekaterina is the most talented king I have ever seen, a hundred times better than Queen Charlotte. If she is in power, it won't be long before the alchemy civilization will have thousands of years. Unprecedented prosperity. It's a pity, the invasion of the plane came too suddenly, this situation is not easy to deal with..."
Alex's expression was complicated for a moment.
All in all, Ekaterina was still younger than his first class junior, and she never thought that she would be such an emperor with such great talents.
However, this majesty's skill and courage are obvious to all, and this is also the most important reason why the empire is still stable when it is in crisis.
Obviously this is not the time to be emotional, Alex thought for a moment, and then asked: "Father, you mean, that guy just now is a member of the "Tianmu Sect"?"
Just a bounty hunter, even if it is a famous "Ten Legends", it is no big deal in front of the Roberts family.
In contrast, the forces behind him are crucial.
"It must be."
Grand Duke Roberts said with a rather complicated expression: "At the beginning, Queen Charlotte's "Freedom of Belief Act" not only led to the invasion of the plane of the gods, but also left some believers of the outer gods. It was not eradicated at the beginning, and now the hidden dangers are reflected. What's worse, if they can come to the door, they will naturally find others. At present, it seems that some high-level officials in the empire have become "surrenderers", falling to the plane of the gods."
When it came to this topic, both father and son looked dignified.
Alex frowned and said: "Are we going to report the situation to Her Majesty the Queen? Now it seems that the United Fleet may have been betrayed by the ghosts, which is more or less ominous. It is even possible that the enemy is encircling the spot and trying to encroach on more Lots of Imperial fleets."
"late."
Grand Duke Roberts shook his head.
That's why he didn't sleep all night.
Because he had already guessed that there was such a possibility. Now it's just confirming the worst situation from other people's mouths.
He added: "Since the other party dares to speak out, they must be sure that the matter is a foregone conclusion. In the face of absolute strength, any scheme is vain. The United Fleet, I'm afraid it will be a disaster."
It's this kind of feeling that you know the enemy's conspiracy, but no matter what you do, it seems to be wrong. It makes people feel like a big stone is pressing on their hearts.
Alex asked a little anxiously: "But, shall we do nothing? Will the fleet go to reinforce now? If not, in case the two Marshals Meredith and Rostov need rescue, and we Didn't go again..."
Hearing this, Grand Duke Roberts suddenly looked at the sky, and his eyes gradually became deep.
He also seemed to be full of doubts.
After pondering for a moment, I said: "I sent a letter to Your Majesty last night, and she replied to me, "Even in the darkest night, there will be stars all over the sky."
Alexis looked puzzled.
At this moment, the sound of fighting suddenly broke out in the street in the distance.
The battle was fierce, and even the manor could feel the shock.
Grand Duke Roberts knew that the assassin who went out before was blocked by the people from the Military Intelligence Department.
From the very beginning, this assassin was doomed to this ending.
Recalling last night's communication, Roberts felt a little more at ease.
He glanced at his son again, and said, "Alex, do you know that even yesterday, His Majesty had already guessed that the "King of Thieves" Carlo Merdis would come to the door, let me be more careful. "
Alex was obviously also surprised. No wonder his father didn't panic at all. It turned out that he had already prepared: "The intelligence of the Military Intelligence Department is already so powerful?"
Grand Duke Roberts shook his head: "No, it's not just that. Few people know that His Majesty is an unfathomable" astrologer. So she may not be ignorant of what is happening now and what will happen in the future. His Majesty's foresight, It's beyond your imagination."
Alex's eyes were complicated, and he said, "But... we should do something, right?"
Grand Duke Roberts obviously couldn't figure it out. He shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Your Majesty didn't make any statement, and let the parliament make decisions. I guess this time, she seems to want those who are hiding in the gutter in Lingdun The mouse appeared under the sun. As for the matter of the United Fleet, I feel that she seems to have other assurances, and things have turned around."
Alexis said: "Ah...but, how can such a powerful enemy on the plane of gods be reversed without the help of a large force from the imperial fleet?"
Grand Duke Roberts was also puzzled and shook his head: "What to do, what to do, as long as we can have a clear conscience within our ability. Those guys on the plane of the gods will never retain the alchemy civilization. Even Some people choose to live as slaves, but our Roberts family will never abandon our family honor and alchemy civilization! If the United Fleet is really ambushed, it will take half a month for the nearest reinforcements to reach the sea area where the incident occurred, so there is no rush One or two days. But I think that this matter may have a big change."
Alexis listened, made a solemn military salute, and said, "Yes, my lord!"
At this time, the movement of the fighting outside the street suddenly disappeared.
It broke out abruptly and ended quickly.
However, when someone visited the Roberts family estate, there were also some mysterious people who went to other ministers' residences.
Now almost all the high-level leaders in Lingdun knew the news that the United Fleet might have been wiped out. For a while, the imperial capital was gloomy.
For those of the "Tianmu Sect", it was the carnival on the eve of victory.
Once the United Fleet is destroyed, it will be just around the corner to break through Luying's homeland.
Under the atmosphere that the building was about to collapse, some people in the United Empire, like the Roberts family, chose to live and die with the alchemy civilization, and some people chose to join the "surrender faction", choosing to sell civilization and their compatriots.
All of a sudden, various turbulent forces emerged in Lingdun.
However, most of this scene is under the surveillance of the Military Intelligence Department.
As Grand Duke Roberts guessed, the man in the palace also planned to take this opportunity to deal with the rats hiding in the gutter.
…
In the evening, Frederick's Palace.
In the solemn palace, the original emergency meeting turned into a fierce quarrel among the ministers.
Now that the United Fleet has lost contact, it is basically confirmed that it was attacked.
Conservative and rescue ministers are arguing over whether to use large-scale rescue.
"The enemy blocked the signal. This is obviously a tactic of "surrounding the point to fight for reinforcements. We must never send troops there to die! The best choice now is to stick to the position! The enemy does not have large ships, so the best choice is to stick to the position."
"Even if the United Fleet really encountered misfortune, I believe that the two experienced marshals Meredith and Rostov would never leave a good warship for the enemy. We still have the advantage in naval warfare. If we attack rashly, Lose a few more fleets, and our advantage will be completely gone!"
"The defensive tactics are correct, but if we don't go to the rescue, we will lose two generals and more than 200,000 elite soldiers. This is not only a loss of equipment and personnel, but also a loss of morale! If we don't go Rescue, do you think the frontline
How sad should the soldiers be?"
"That's right! General Tossov is right. What's more, the enemy's layout on the west coast of Marfa is still very rough. Now is the best opportunity for a surprise attack. If we don't act and wait for them to establish a line of defense, there will be no chance. I am in favor of continuing to support surprise attacks!"
"I agree too!"
"..."
Everyone knows that the fleet sent for reinforcements is also extremely risky, but it is wrong not to reinforce them.
This is a debate that is doomed to fruitlessness.
On the throne, Ekaterina, who was dressed in a gold-plated imperial robe, watched silently. Her purple hair was standing up high, and there was an emperor's majesty in her cold beauty.
She kept silent, rubbing the two meteorites in her hands, silently watching everything in front of her eyes.
The ministers were also very puzzled, why did Her Majesty the Empress act resolutely in the past, but today she would keep silent and let the ministers quarrel.
But judging from the situation in Lingdun City where the chaos was suppressed before it even arose, His Majesty the Emperor clearly had a precise judgment and control over the situation.
No one knew what Ekaterina was thinking.
At this time, suddenly, an old voice suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I think it is meaningless to continue arguing like this. What do you think?"
It was Merlin Gregory who spoke, a man in gray robes.
He is the current chief enshrining master of the court, and the only ninth-level professional in Lingdun.
Merlin used to be the eighth-level enshrinement of Prince Carnap of a Bona royal family. Later, because of the opening of the plane channel, the upper limit of the law of heaven and earth was raised, and the threshold for advancement was greatly reduced.
No one thought that the prince would treasure a cosmic source quality, which also allowed Merlin to advance to the ninth level smoothly.
But this Merlin is also a typical "old school".
This faction is all old-fashioned aristocrats, who support the hereditary rights of the old-fashioned aristocrats, and secretly oppose the New Deal.
Now after Ekaterina ascended the throne, a series of New Deals abolished the royal family and abolished the right of the nobility to hereditary fiefdoms.
These "old schools" are now the empire's strength and resistance.
After all, he is a ninth-level alchemist, and now it is a critical moment in the field, and no one can do anything to him. This Meilin also has a lot of power to speak in the court, and there are even some signs of taking power.
When Yekaterina heard the question, she said calmly: "It's fine for the parliament to vote on the resolution."
Master Merlin was a little dissatisfied, and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is the best policy to send heavy troops to rescue."
Yekaterina listened with the same expression, and said lightly: "Yes."
Hearing this, Master Merlin's eyes flashed an imperceptible smug smile, "Okay, since that's the case, I think we should send the fleet to reinforce immediately!"
All the ministers listened and said nothing.
Although Yekaterina took the throne not long ago, everyone realized that she was a talented emperor. In this case, no one can do better than her.
The ministers also thought that she needed the support of the "old school" and made necessary compromises.
Naturally, no one can say anything.
However, just when everyone thought the meeting had a result.
Suddenly a messenger guard came in and shouted excitedly: "Urgent information! Urgent information!"
Usually, no matter what emergency information is, it must be passed through a special intelligence department, even confidentially.
Instead of rushing into the palace with such fanfare.
But there is only one exception.
That's war news!
All the ministers looked at the messenger guard who broke in, and they were very puzzled.
Ever since the war with the invaders from the plane of the gods, they have lost consecutive battles, and even a small victory is a miserable victory. Where did the good news come from?
However, everyone didn't notice that Ekaterina on the throne murmured in a voice she only heard: "Is it finally here..."
The messenger guard flushed with excitement, and quickly reported: "Your Majesty, great victory!
Great victory! An urgent message came from the United Fleet. Today, from 3:00 to 5:00 pm, our fleet wiped out the eight thousand magic groups in the Celestial Plane near the Laerman Islands in the Imperial Strait!"
The sound was like a bell, resounding through the entire palace hall.
But when hundreds of ministers in the palace listened, they were all taken aback, as if they couldn't believe what they heard.
The ministers who thought they were old even rubbed their eyes and ears, thinking they were hallucinating.
For a moment, the huge palace was silent, only the sound of breathing getting thicker and thicker.
Yekaterina trembled faintly when she heard that pair of clear purple pupils. Although she obtained some favorable results through astrology, she never expected such a great victory.
She said dignifiedly: "Report in detail."
The messenger guard spread out the file in his hand, and reported again at Lanxess Exchange: "Just got the information, the Empire United Fleet was supported by the Dawn Regiment. There were more than 80,000 enemies, and more than 500 enemy warships were destroyed. Our army only lost one warship, 32 people were killed, and 700 people were injured..."
Everyone in the palace heard this statement clearly.
However, it was even more unbelievable just because I heard it clearly.
what!
Annihilating eight ten-thousand-man corporations, and still having so little battle damage?
If the United Fleet paid a heavy price and repelled the enemy, they would already consider it a great victory.
After all, no one is more aware of the combat power of the Fangren Corps in the plane of the gods than they are now.
However, with the ultra-low battle damage, the fleet actually "wiped out" 80,000 people?
how could it be possible!
Is this a false positive?
But everyone is vaguely expecting this to be true~Even if it's just a dream, don't wake up.
At this time, Ekaterina on the throne was suddenly taken aback when she heard the "Dawn Regiment", and murmured in her heart, "So that's how it is."
After more and more detailed battle reports came and all the ministers scrambled to read them, they dared not believe it was true.
In an instant, all the officials in the palace burst into tears, and there was a carnival of joy and joy!
…
It didn't take long for the news of the "Imperial Channel Victory" to spread throughout Lingdon through newspaper accounts, and then quickly spread throughout the entire empire.
This great victory gave everyone in the Alchemy Plane a shot in the arm, boosting the morale of the army.
At the same time, the "Dawn Mission" also broke into everyone's field of vision.
