Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 116 The Queen's Helplessness

On the afternoon of June 3012, 28 in the Tang Dynasty, in a large hall of the imperial palace in Suisheng City, the capital of the Ziyue Empire, Empress Ouyang Xue held a newspaper tightly in her hand, and spoke tremblingly to Prime Minister Guo Xian, the army Minister Yuan Lin and Navy Minister Liu Yongcheng said: "I have decided to launch a comprehensive revenge action against the Orenza Empire. What do you think?"

Empress Ouyang Xue was a little trembling when she spoke, she was completely annoyed by the massacre of the Ziyue Empire prisoners and civilians by the Orensa Royal Army.

Prime Minister Guo Xian hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, apart from the more than 3 prisoners of war of the Orensa Army in the hands of our Ziyue Empire, it seems impossible to retaliate against the Orensa Empire in other ways."

Empress Ouyang Xue said immediately: "Then shoot all the more than 3 Orensa Army prisoners of war, and avenge the tragic deaths of Royal Army officers, soldiers and civilians!"

Prime Minister Guo Xian hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, absolutely not, massacring prisoners of war is a violation of international conventions. Once our Ziyue Empire follows the example of the Orenza army, then our Ziyue Empire will change from being reasonable to being unreasonable, let alone Oren There are still more captured Royal Army officers and soldiers in the hands of the Sa army, and many cities in the southern region of our Ziyue Empire are still controlled by the Orenza army, and the Orenza army may retaliate even more crazily."

Minister of War Yuan Lin followed with a wry smile and said, "Your Majesty, you really can't do this, otherwise the massacre of our Ziyue Empire prisoners and civilians by the Orenza army may become even bigger and more blatant."

Empress Ouyang Xue gritted her teeth and said: "Now the whole world knows about the massacre of our Purple Moon Empire's prisoners and civilians by the Orenza army. How can we make our Purple Moon Empire pretend that this incident didn't happen? The army and the people of the whole country explain?"

Prime Minister Guo Xian said with a sigh: "Your Majesty, I will ask the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to strongly condemn the Orenza Empire and urge the Orenza Empire to severely punish the murderers who slaughtered our Purple Moon Empire prisoners of war and civilians."

Empress Ouyang Xue sneered, "If condemnation is useful, then the Orenza Empire will not invade our Ziyue Empire."

At this moment, a female official hurried into the hall and handed a piece of paper to Empress Ouyang Xue.

Empress Ouyang Xue took the piece of paper handed over by the female officer and looked at it, she couldn't help showing excitement on her face, "Okay! Well done! Three adults, just this morning, the Independent Fleet launched an attack on the coast of the Orenza Empire. Hamadan City was bombarded destructively, and now Hamadan City, with an urban population of more than 80, has been turned into ruins."

Su Yi immediately sent a telegram to Wang Chengliang, the commander of the Independent Fleet, after receiving the news that the Orensa army slaughtered the prisoners of war and civilians of the Ziyue Empire yesterday, ordering Wang Chengliang to lead the three battleship squadrons and two armored cruisers of the Independent Fleet The formation, four light cruiser formations, and eight destroyer formations immediately bombarded the cities along the coast of the Orenza Empire. If possible, Su Yi hoped that Wang Chengliang would turn all the cities along the coast of the Orenza Empire into a pile of rubble .

As a coastal city, Hamadan City also built four forts. However, the port of Hamadan City is not a military port after all. The four forts were all built decades ago, and they were more used to resist pirates.

Today, there are only six 102mm coastal defense guns and eighteen 75mm coastal defense guns in the four forts in the port of Hamadan, and the thickness of the reinforced concrete of the four forts is also very average. As a result, when the independent fleet came to the port of Hamadan city After that, with little effort, the four forts in the port were cleared.

Next, more than [-] large and small warships from the Independent Fleet began to bombard Hamadan City, including the port of Hamadan City, for about two hours. Ruins.

When Prime Minister Guo Xian heard that the Independent Fleet had destroyed the city of Hamadan in the Orensa Empire, he couldn't help showing excitement on his face and said to Queen Ouyang Xue: "Your Majesty, with Su Yi's character, since he has intervened in this matter, he must not It’s over just by destroying one city of Hamadan. Next, the independent fleet will definitely bombard more coastal cities of the Orenza Empire. Presumably the Orenza Empire will also hand over the real culprit who slaughtered our Purple Moon Empire’s prisoners of war and civilians as soon as possible. Otherwise, the Orensa Empire will suffer a great loss."

Empress Ouyang Xue immediately said to Secretary of the Navy Liu Yongcheng: "Now that the Orenza Navy has almost been wiped out, can our Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire also attack and bombard the coastal cities of the Orenza Empire?"

Secretary of the Navy Liu Yongcheng hesitated for a while and said: "Your Majesty, it is not a problem for us to let the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire attack. After all, the main force of the Orenza Navy has been destroyed by the independent fleet. If the coastal cities of the Sa Empire are shelled, then the Orensa army can still carry out larger-scale retaliation against our Ziyue Empire, so I feel that our Ziyue Empire is better to wait and see how it changes."

Empress Ouyang Xue laughed angrily: "After talking for a long time, we still can't take revenge on the Orensa Empire. Does it mean that the blood debt owed by the Orensa army must be repaid by outsiders for us Ziyue Empire? "

Prime Minister Guo Xian coughed and said: "Your Majesty, Su Yi is now the son-in-law of our Ziyue Empire. His independent fleet bombarded the coastal cities of the Orenza Empire. revenge."

Minister of War Yuan Lin then said: "Your Majesty, the Su Family Army is not our Ziyue Empire's army after all, even if the Su Family Army's independent fleet bombarded the coastal cities of the Orenza Empire, the Orenza Empire would not be able to blame the leader of our Ziyue Empire." In addition, the Su Family Army still controls hundreds of thousands of prisoners of the Orenza Navy and Orenza Army. The best choice for our Ziyue Empire is to do nothing. If the Orenza Army continues to massacre our Purple Moon Empire Prisoners of war and civilians of the Moon Empire, it will not be too late for us Ziyue Empire to take revenge."

Empress Ouyang Xue waved her hands in dismay and said, "Then, let's do what you want! I'm a little tired, so go down!"

At this time, Prime Minister Guo Xian said to Queen Ouyang Xue in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, in fact, in the hearts of the three of you, I really want to recklessly retaliate against the Orenza Empire, but the current situation does not allow the three of us to act on our will. Otherwise, our Ziyue Empire would still be the most injured, so regarding the massacre of our Ziyue Empire's prisoners and civilians by the Orensa army this time, our Ziyue Empire can only choose to endure."
