Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 244 Nine Nations Military Alliance
The news that the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire suddenly had a large number of warships spread throughout the world because the Tang Empire did not intentionally block the news.

For the strengthened Datang Empire, the British Empire, the Sharad Empire, the Noomi Empire, the Monia Empire, the Jisk Empire, the Rilland Empire, and the Orenza Empire in the original seven-nation alliance, not only did not have any The heart of retreat, on the contrary, hastened the process of forming a military alliance.

However, the Kingdom of Hessel and the Kingdom of Revelli, who originally intended to join this military alliance, became a little hesitant because of the soaring strength of the Datang Navy. The prime ministers of Revelli and the two countries all came to Feni City, the capital of the Sharad Empire.

At this time, the prime ministers of the six countries, Inroba, Noomi, Monia, Jisk, Rilland, and Orenza, have also come to Feni City, the capital of the Sharad Empire, to participate in the formation of the military alliance. Meeting.

On the morning of February 3016, [-] in the Tang calendar, in a meeting room of the Prime Minister's Mansion in Fenny City, the Prime Minister of the Sharad Empire, Shuli Ke, said loudly: "Welcome all distinguished guests to Fenny City. Today we nine The gathering of individuals here is of historic significance, and it will be the beginning of the restoration of order in the world!"

Before the Great Tang Empire was born, all first-class powers were white countries. Although many white people were unwilling to admit it, the Great Tang Empire has now become the world's most powerful country. Empire disrupted the order laid down by the white world.

Prime Minister August of the British Empire nodded slightly and said: "The rise of the Great Tang Empire not only affected the economies of our countries, but more seriously, the continuous strengthening of the military power of the Great Tang Empire forced our countries to Having to invest huge sums of money to start a large-scale arms race with the Tang Empire, presumably most of the countries here are almost overwhelmed by heavy military expenditures."

At this moment, Uriso, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Hessel, suddenly said in a deep voice: "Everyone should already know that the Datang Navy has produced hundreds of warships from somewhere, including 68 super dreadnought battleships, [-] battlecruisers and [-] dreadnought battleships. In this way, even if the navies of our nine countries add up, they may not be able to defeat the Datang Navy. The reason why the last war between the Seven Nations Alliance and the Datang Empire failed , the key issue is that the seven-nation alliance has lost its command of the sea.”

The words of Uriso, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Hessel, made the expressions of the seven prime ministers of the original seven-nation alliance a lot more serious.

Prime Minister Julian of the Noomi Empire pondered for a while and said: "Because the strength of the Tang Empire continues to grow, our nine countries should form a military alliance as soon as possible to restrain or even disintegrate the development of the Tang Empire, otherwise the whole world will be destroyed in the future." It will be up to the people of Tang to say!"

Tolicka, the Prime Minister of the Monia Empire, said immediately: "I think the combined strength of the navies of our seven countries may not be inferior to that of the Datang Navy. At present, only the capital ships of our Monia Royal Navy include 53 super ships. Dreadnought battleships, 52 battlecruisers, five dreadnought battleships, eight former dreadnought battleships, and ten ironclad battleships, if the war with the Tang Empire can be delayed until after August next year, our Monia Royal Navy will Thirty new super dreadnoughts and thirty new battlecruisers will be added."

After the end of the last war, the fifty Fantasy-class super dreadnought battleships with 381mm main guns and fifty Tornado-class battlecruisers with 381mm main guns built by the Monia Empire have all joined Monia. In the sequence of the Royal Navy of Asia, and with the support of the Monia royal family funds, the Monia Empire started the construction plan of [-] new super dreadnought battleships and [-] new battlecruisers.

The 406 super dreadnought battleships and 3017 battlecruisers that the Monia Empire has just started to build all have [-]mm main guns, but the [-] giant ships built were around July [-], [-] in the Great Tang Calendar. , August will be completed, almost a year and a half away from now.

As soon as Tolicka, the prime minister of the Monian Empire, spoke, the prime ministers of other countries also expressed the strength of their respective navies.

"Our Royal Navy currently has 76 super dreadnought battleships, 67 battlecruisers, [-] dreadnought battleships, [-] former dreadnought battleships and [-] ironclad battleships. In May of this year, there will be three more Ten super dreadnoughts and battlecruisers can be built."

"Our Royal Sharad Navy currently has 31 super dreadnought battleships, 31 battlecruisers, ten dreadnought battleships, twelve former dreadnought battleships and 24 ironclad battleships. By July of this year, the super dreadnought battleships and battleships The number of cruisers will increase to 85."

"Our Noomi Royal Navy currently has 52 super dreadnought battleships, fifty battlecruisers, ten dreadnought battleships, thirteen former dreadnought battleships and 27 ironclad battleships. By June this year, there will be 36 super dreadnought battleships. Dreadnoughts and 36 battlecruisers join the ranks of the Noomi Royal Navy."

"Our Jisk Royal Navy already has 36 super dreadnought battleships, 32 battlecruisers, six dreadnought battleships, six pre-dreadnought battleships and 381 ironclad battleships, because just twelve ships with 381mm main guns The super dreadnought battleship and twelve battlecruisers with [-]mm main guns have joined the Royal Gisk Navy, so in a short time, the number of battleships in the Royal Gisk Navy will no longer increase."

"Our Royal Navy currently has [-] super dreadnought battleships, [-] battlecruisers, [-] dreadnought battleships, [-] former dreadnought battleships and [-] ironclad battleships. In July this year, there will be [-] more The super-dreadnought and eight battlecruisers were added to active service."

"Our Orenza Royal Navy has sixteen super dreadnought battleships, sixteen battlecruisers, five former dreadnought battleships, and two ironclad battleships. In June this year, there will be sixteen ships with 356mm main guns. The super-dreadnought battleship and sixteen battlecruisers with 356mm main guns join the active service of our Royal Navy of Orenza."

After the seven prime ministers of the original seven-nation alliance spoke out about the strength of their own navies, Uriso, the prime minister of the Kingdom of Hethel, hesitated and said: "Our Royal Navy of Hethel now has sixteen super dreadnought battleships, Twelve battlecruisers, sixteen dreadnought battleships, sixteen pre-dreadnought battleships, and twenty ironclad battleships, the Hethel Royal Navy has no new shipbuilding plans yet."

Paalto, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Revelli, went on to say: "Our Royal Navy of Revelli currently has twelve super dreadnought battleships, twelve battlecruisers, four dreadnought battleships, four former dreadnought battleships and six ironclad battleships. , of which four super-dreadnought battleships with 356mm main guns and four battlecruisers with 356mm main guns have just been completed."

Soon the nine prime ministers calculated the combined strength of the navies of various countries. By the end of July this year, the navies of the nine countries will have 450 three super dreadnought battleships, 430 three battlecruisers, 72 dreadnought battleships, One hundred and three pre-dreadnought battleships and 130 eight ironclad battleships.

Prime Minister Gehrman of the Rielland Empire frowned and asked, "Which country has the most accurate information about the Datang Navy? How many capital ships does the seven main fleets of the Datang Navy have?"

August, the Prime Minister of the British Empire, immediately said: "According to the latest news from our British intelligence department, the current number of capital ships in the Datang Navy is about 320 super dreadnought battleships, 310 three battlecruisers and 120 seven dreadnought battleships, this number should be more accurate, there are almost a few ships up and down, and in June of this year, the Datang Navy will have 36 new super dreadnought battleships and 36 new battlecruisers in service, Datang The Navy has 24 super dreadnought battleships and 24 battlecruisers to be completed by the end of this year."

After a pause, August continued: "These are only the number of capital ships of the seven main fleets of the Datang Navy. The Datang Navy also has 24 garrison fleets, and these 24 garrison fleets are equipped with hundreds of former dreadnought battleships and upper ships. Hundreds of ironclad battleships, although the Datang Navy is superior in strength, but if the navies of our nine countries can unite, I believe it can still suppress the Datang Navy."

Shulik, Prime Minister of the Sharad Empire, saw Uriso, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Hessel, and Paltuo, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Revelli, with hesitation on their faces, so he couldn't help changing the subject and said: "Everyone, the Tang Empire has With a land area of ​​more than 700 million square kilometers, once the military alliance of our nine countries can defeat the Tang Empire, there will be vast land and countless wealth waiting for our nine countries to share. We are now Shouldn't we study the issue of how to distribute benefits after the war?"

In the end, relying on the big pie drawn by the seven prime ministers of the original seven-nation alliance, they successfully persuaded the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Hessel, Uriso, and the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Revelli, Pato, and the Kingdom of Hessel and the Kingdom of Revelli agreed to join The nine-nation military alliance against the Tang Empire.

The prime ministers of the nine countries also worked out the principle of distributing the share of post-war benefits according to the contribution of each of the nine countries in the war during the alliance meeting.

This post-war benefit distribution principle is roughly the same as the post-war benefit distribution principle formulated by the Seven-Nation Alliance during the last war.

The prime ministers of the nine countries discussed an initial plan, which was to divide the land of the Tang Empire over 700 million square kilometers into two hundred parts.

Eighty shares of the land of the Tang Empire will be divided up after the war according to the strength, achievements and losses of the armies of each country. Eighty shares will also be divided up after the war according to the number of warships, results and losses of the navies participating in the war. The territory of the Great Tang Empire will be divided into [-] parts of the territory of the Great Tang Empire after the war according to the number of warships, results and losses of the air forces of various countries participating in the war.

The remaining [-] parts of the land of the Tang Empire will be compensated to each country according to what each country has paid for the logistics support of the entire coalition army.

The armies, navies and air forces of the nine countries will be divided into three theaters, namely the Eastern Theater, Southern Theater and Western Theater.

The main force of the eastern theater will be composed of the troops of the Monia Empire and the Rielan Empire, the Lanshui Kingdom belonging to the Monia Empire, the Wubei Kingdom belonging to the Noomi Empire, and the Yingluo Kingdom. Dongyao Kingdom, which is within the sphere of influence of the Ba Empire, will be divided into the Eastern Theater. These three small countries in the northeast of the Tang Empire have already been tied to chariots by the Nine Nations Military Alliance without knowing it.

Most of Lanshui State, Wubei State, and Dongyao State are grasslands. Among them, Lanshui State has a land area of ​​about 400 million square kilometers, has eight provinces, and has a population of 90.00 million. About [-]% of them are grasslands. Among the Tang people, the remaining [-]% are Qiang people, but the Qiang people belong to the ruling class of Lanshui Kingdom.

Wubei State has a land area of ​​approximately 460 million square kilometers, has nine provinces, and a population of approximately 9000 million, of which Tang people account for two-thirds, and Heng people account for one-third, just like Lanshui State. The relatively small Hang people belong to the ruling class.

The land area of ​​Dongyao Kingdom is about 540 million square kilometers. It has eleven provinces and has a population of about 3000 million. Among them, 3000 million people are Tang people, and the remaining [-] million people are Yao people. Dongyao Kingdom is also formed by The Yao people, who were small in number, ruled.

The southern theater will be composed of armies from the Gisk Empire, the Orensa Empire, the Kingdom of Hesel, and the Kingdom of Revelli, while the western theater will be composed of armies from the Inrobal Empire, the Sharad Empire, and the Noomi Empire. It will be the most powerful theater in the entire nine-nation military alliance.

On the issue of the command authority of the three theaters, the prime ministers of the nine countries finally decided to establish a theater joint command to be in charge of the sea, land and air forces of the entire theater.

In order to deal with the powerful Datang Navy, the main forces of the nine countries' navies are also preparing to gather together to form a joint fleet of nine countries' navies. hands of the military alliance.

Because of the geographical location of the nine countries, sea control is particularly important to the Nine-Nation Military Alliance. If the Nine-Nation Military Alliance loses its sea control as in the last war, then the three major theaters of the Nine-Nation Military Alliance will be divided. Give the Datang Empire every opportunity to defeat them.
