Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 253 The thunder is heavy and the rain is small
After the main forces of the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy were trapped in the Groning Port of the Gisk Empire, the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire immediately sent to Monia and Rielland, which belonged to the southern theater of the Nine-Nation Military Alliance. The other countries sent a message for help, hoping that Monia, Rielland and other countries could send the main force of the navy to rescue the main force of the Jisk Navy and the Orenza Navy.

In the palace of Nasya City, the capital of the Monian Empire, Emperor Ippoli frowned and said to Prime Minister Tolicka: "What does the Prime Minister think of the request of the Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire?"

Prime Minister Toliczka pondered for a while and said: "At present, our Monia Royal Navy has 83 super dreadnought battleships and 82 battlecruisers. There are 25 super dreadnought battleships and 25 battlecruisers in Revelli's navy. Even the Hessel Navy, which lost a super dreadnought battleship and a battlecruiser in the naval battle, also has [-] [-] super dreadnought battleship and [-] battlecruisers, if our navies of the four countries can unite, we should be able to break the siege of Groning Port."

Prime Minister Toliczka paused for a moment and said: "However, the combat effectiveness of the Datang Navy is unbelievable. In this naval battle in the Wesel Strait, the Datang Navy sent only the subordinates of a main fleet. There are only 36 super dreadnought battleships and 36 battlecruisers in a squadron, and here, even if the fleeing Hesel Navy is excluded, the Jisk Navy and Orenza Navy add up to 68 super dreadnought battleships and battlecruisers. 64 battlecruisers, but the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy were defeated."

Emperor Yippoli sighed and said: "It is precisely because of the strong combat effectiveness of the Datang Navy that I hesitate to rescue the main forces of the Jisk Navy and the Orenza Navy. After all, the battleships of the Royal Monia Navy , but they were all built at a huge cost, and the loss of any one would make me feel heartbroken, and to rescue the Gisk Navy and Orenza Navy trapped in Groning Port, no matter whether we succeed in the end, we must not The Royal Navy of Nigeria will pay a huge loss."

Prime Minister Toliczka nodded and said: "Your Majesty's words are very true. According to the deduction of the Ministry of the Navy, even if our Monia Royal Navy, Rielland Navy, Hessel Navy, and Revelli Navy dispatch all the main forces , and the Jisk Navy and Orensa Navy trapped in the port of Groning will also take the opportunity to cooperate with the breakout, and finally want to defeat the Datang Navy. Our Monia Royal Navy may need to spend more than half of the super dreadnought battleships cruiser."

Emperor Ippoli smiled bitterly and said: "The price is too high. In order to build these super dreadnought battleships and battlecruisers for our Monia Royal Navy, I almost exhausted the royal family's funds. In the meantime, it is impossible for the royal family to transfer funds to the navy, and I think it is better to be more cautious about saving the Jisk Navy and Orenza Navy."

Emperor Ippoli has always attached great importance to money. The reason why he is willing to invest huge sums of money to build so many super dreadnought battleships and battlecruisers for the Monia Navy is because of the last war, the Royal Navy of the Tang Dynasty took the Monia Navy The fight was terrible, and even raided the largest military port of the Monia Empire-Azem Port, and snatched [-] super dreadnought battleships and [-] battlecruisers from the Monia Navy at one time, including The construction of six Champion-class super-dreadnought battleships and six Victory-class battlecruisers is about to be completed.

Prime Minister Toliczka thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, the Monia Empire is definitely not the only country that has scruples about the powerful combat power of the Datang Navy. Not to mention the Kingdom of Hesel, they must be afraid of the Datang Navy. Like the tiger, the Rielland Empire and the Revelli Kingdom are not much better, so I feel that I want to form a team composed of the Rielland Navy, the Hessel Navy, the Revelli Navy and our Monia Royal Navy. It should not be an easy task for the joint fleet to rescue the Jisk Navy and the Orensa Navy. I think it is best to wait until the three navies of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi and the Datang Navy decide the winner. The navies of the four countries in our southern theater will study the matter of forming a joint fleet."

Emperor Yippoli hesitated and said: "But the battle situation between the Jisk Empire and the Orensa Empire is very tight now. If we can't win the sea control, our army of the Monia Empire, as well as the Rielan Empire, Hessel The armies of the Kingdom and the Kingdom of Revelli will not be able to support the Gisk Empire and the Orensa Empire."

Prime Minister Tolicka said indifferently: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Jisk Empire has a land area of ​​200 million square kilometers and a population of more than 1000 million. The Orenza Empire has a land area of ​​[-] million square kilometers and a population of more than six hundred million. Hundreds of millions, these two countries will not be easily conquered by the Tang Empire."

Emperor Yippoli nodded and said: "Then, according to the Prime Minister's intention, push back the matter of rescuing the Jisk Navy and the Orensa Navy."

On the morning of August 3016, [-] in the Tang calendar, in the palace of Manges City, the capital of the Kingdom of Hesel, the young King Munica held a telegram and asked Prime Minister Uriso in puzzlement: " Prime Minister, what does this telegram from the Monia Empire mean? Why does one side ask to form a joint fleet of our Hessel Navy, Monia Navy, Rielland Navy and Revelli Navy to rescue the trapped in Groning? The Jisk Navy and Orensa Navy in Hong Kong, while using the lack of sea power in the southern theater as an excuse, hope that the three navies of Inrobah, Sharad, and Noomi can allocate part of their forces to support the southern theater?"

Prime Minister Uriso sneered: "Your Majesty, it is obvious that the Monia Empire is not willing to take chestnuts for the Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire at this time, and let the three navies of Inroba, Sharad, and Noomi share part of their forces. Coming to the southern theater is just an excuse, and the Monia Empire was also intimidated by the combat power displayed by the Datang Navy."

King Munica immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Prime Minister, if this is the case, doesn't our Hessel Navy need to go to Groning Port?"

Prime Minister Uriso nodded and said: "Your Majesty, it is not easy for our Hessel Navy to have the size it is today. Losing any warship, especially a capital ship, is very difficult for our Hessel Navy. Yes, so even if the Monia Navy, Rielland Navy, and Revelli Navy go to Groning Port, I will find a reason for our Hessel Navy not to participate in this rescue operation."

King Munica asked in surprise: "Prime Minister, is this appropriate? After all, the Kingdom of Hethel has joined the Nine Nations Military Alliance!"

Prime Minister Uriso said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty, the reason why I agreed to allow the Kingdom of Hessel to join the Nine Nations Military Alliance is because of the mentality of taking advantage of it. After all, the Great Tang Empire has eight thousand... By the way, the Great Tang Empire After annexing Lanshui Kingdom, Wubei Kingdom, and Dongyao Kingdom, we have a land of more than [-] million square kilometers. As long as the final winner of this war is the nine-nation military alliance, our Hethel Kingdom will gain huge benefits , It will be a breeze to advance to the empire."

In this world, only a country with an area of ​​more than 1000 million square kilometers can be called an empire. Not long after the war between the Tang Empire and the Seven Kingdoms Alliance ended, the Hethel Kingdom suddenly mobilized its navy and army and annexed four surrounding countries in a row. The island nation has expanded the land area of ​​the Hethel Kingdom to more than 700 million square kilometers, and the population has also increased to nearly 700 million. However, the Hethel Kingdom, which has a land area of ​​more than [-] million square kilometers, still cannot be called an empire.

Prime Minister Uriso's words made the young King Munica a little excited, "Prime Minister, it would be great if the Hethel Kingdom can be called the Hethel Empire in my hands!"

Prime Minister Uriso said: "Your Majesty, although the Tang Empire is powerful, it can swallow many ants. As long as the three countries of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi can go all out, the possibility of the Tang Empire's defeat is still very high. Yes, our Kingdom of Hethel only needs to preserve its strength as much as possible in this war, especially the strength of the navy, and the army can make some sacrifices appropriately."

"Prime Minister, then I will leave it to you to deal with the other countries of the Nine Nations Military Alliance. As the Prime Minister said, our Kingdom of Hethel is willing to join this war, but it is not to fight with Datang for cheap. The empire is fighting to the death."

Regarding the formation of the joint fleet of the four navies to rescue the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy, the Rielland Empire and the Revelli Kingdom are the same as the Monia and Hesel countries. But there was a lot of thunder and little rain, and there was no specific action based on it.

"Pa——" Lazarik, the emperor of the Jisk Empire, slammed a telegram on the table in his hand, and said to Prime Minister Maxim angrily: "It's simply unreasonable, the Monia Empire The Kingdom of Rielland, the Kingdom of Revelli, and the Kingdom of Hethel all talk loudly, but they don’t even take any actual actions. Are these still allies?”

Prime Minister Maxim said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, calm down, we have explained the matter to the three countries of Inrobah, Sharad, and Noomi, and hope that the three countries of Inrobah, Sharad, and Noomi can treat Monia, The four countries including Rielland exerted pressure to form a joint fleet of the four countries as soon as possible to relieve the siege of Groning Port."

Emperor Lazarik took a deep breath, calmed down his anger, and asked again: "How is the situation in Port Groning?"

Prime Minister Maxim said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the port of Groning has a large number of large-caliber coastal defense guns, and in the offshore area, our Jisk Royal Navy has also deployed a number of minefields. If there will be any security issues, if the Datang Navy dares to hit the port of Groning, the Datang Navy will definitely be beaten to death!"

Emperor Lazarik shook his head and said: "The problem now is command of the sea. Without command of the sea, the armies of the other four countries in the southern theater cannot enter the territory of our Gisk Empire. On the frontline battlefield, our Royal Gisk Army One defeat after another, at least more than 40 square kilometers of land has fallen, and it is only ten days before the war begins."

Prime Minister Maxim sighed and said: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of the Army is implementing further mobilization, and a large number of troops are being transferred to the front line, hoping to block this wave of offensive from the Datang Army."

Emperor Lazaric gritted his teeth and said: "Let the Ministry of War expand the army at all costs, and at the same time, the states also organize the people to cooperate with the Royal Army to fight. The combined fleet of the Kingdom rescued the main force of our Jisk Royal Navy and the Orensa Navy. We don’t know when, and for a long time to come, our Jisk Empire can only rely on our own strength to resist Datang The Army and the Datang Air Force are attacking."

"Alas—" Modest, the emperor of the Orenza Empire, let out a long sigh. The Kingdom and the Hethel Kingdom are not willing to use all their strength to form a joint fleet to go to the Groning Port of the Jisk Empire to rescue the main force of our Royal Navy of Orensa and the Jisk Navy."

Niki Fore, Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, said bitterly: "It seems that regaining the command of the sea in a short period of time is unnecessary. At present, the offensive of the Datang Army and the Datang Air Force is getting more and more fierce, and the losses of our Orenza Royal Army are increasing day by day. , It has only been ten days since the war started, and our Orenza Empire has almost 50 square kilometers of land, which is occupied by the Datang Army."

Emperor Modest hesitated for a moment and said: "It seems that the expansion of the Royal Army to [-] new infantry divisions is far from enough. The Ministry of War needs to form more new infantry divisions."

Prime Minister Nikifor said frowningly, "Your Majesty, it's a matter of funds..."

Before Prime Minister Nikifor could finish his words, Emperor Modest interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "It's this time, and I can't take care of so much. Let the Royal Bank of Orenza allocate funds to the Ministry of War first. As for the hole in the Royal Bank of Orenza, we will study it after the war is won!"

The Royal Bank of Orenza is the only bank that can issue currency in the Orenza Empire. The currency of the Orenza Empire is called the Austrian dollar. If a large amount of funds are drawn from the Royal Bank of Orenza, it will definitely cause the depreciation of the Austrian dollar.

Prime Minister Nikifor pondered for a moment, and could only say helplessly: "There is really no other way now, we can only take one step at a time."
