Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 29 Picked up a Big Deal
As the largest military port in the Skystar Empire, Kangshan Port has very complete fortifications. There are a total of 24 forts on the north and south banks of the harbor and the big island at the entrance, equipped with more than 300 coastal defense guns. Among them, there are more than [-] coastal defense guns with a caliber of more than [-] mm.

The Royal Army of the Skystar Empire has specially formed an artillery unit, which has been stationed at 24 forts in Kangshan Port for a long time. In Kangshan City, it is also the station of the No.13 Infantry Division of the Royal Army of the Skystar Empire. The No. 13 Infantry Division of the Royal Skystar Empire Army can quickly reinforce the forts in Kangshan Port.

Su Yi only learned from the telegram sent by the Liuyun Empire's Navy Department that the Skystar Empire was about to abandon Kangshan Port. As for the current specific situation of Kangshan Port, Su Yi certainly had no way of knowing.

Su Yi has even made preparations. Once he finds out that the Heavenly Star Empire army with many forts in Kangshan Port is resisting too fiercely, he will give up his plan to seize Kangshan Port. After all, if warships and coastal defense guns are used to shoot at each other, the losers must be warships. .

However, what made Su Yi ecstatic was that the Artillery Squadron of the Skystar Empire stationed at the 24 forts of Kangshan Port immediately abandoned the 24 forts of Kangshan Port after the two fleets of the Skystar Empire began to break through, and retreated in a hurry. After leaving Kangshan City, they took the last two trains in Kangshan City Railway Station and evacuated Kangshan City.

A few days ago, the No. 13 Infantry Division of the Royal Skystar Empire Army stationed in Kangshan City had already withdrawn first. When Su Yi's troops began to land in Kangshan City and Kangshan Port, there were only a few maintenance troops left. Law and order police.

The troops under Su Yi's command who were responsible for the landing easily occupied the 24 deserted forts. In the middle of the night on April [-]th, the entire Kangshan City fell into Su Yi's hands without bloodshed.

On the afternoon of April 24th, in a study of the county guard's mansion in Kangshan City, Lu Sheng, the captain of the First Infantry Regiment of the Xingang Garrison, respectfully reported to Su Yihui: "Marshal, guard Kangshan Port The Skystar Empire troops with 24 forts did not destroy them when they withdrew, so our Xingang garrison completely took over these [-] forts, including the hundreds of thousands of shells stored in these forts. The large ammunition depot stocked with millions of rounds of shells, the shipyard in Kangshan Port, and dozens of factories in Kangshan City, the Skystar Empire troops did not make any damage when they retreated. Now the ammunition depot, shipbuilding The factory and dozens of factories were also taken over by our Newport garrison.”

Lu Sheng is an army-type mid-level combat cyborg. Because He Yunfei did not come with the fleet this time, Su Yi asked Lu Sheng to temporarily command the four infantry regiments.

Kangshan City is the county seat of Kangshan County, and Kangshan County is the territory directly under the royal family of the Tianxing Empire. The royal family of the Tianxing Empire, and even the royal families of other countries in the world, will appoint some civil servants to help the royal family manage the directly subordinate territories and manage a province The civil servants in charge of a county are called governors, the civil officials in charge of a county are called sheriffs, and the civil officials in charge of a county are called county magistrates.

If it is a fiefdom of hereditary nobles, the general governors, sheriffs, and county magistrates are all held by the nobles themselves, or by the nobles' cronies.

Su Yi only moved into the Sheriff's Mansion this morning. The sheriff of Kangshan County, as well as most of the officials in Kangshan City, had already evacuated Kangshan with their families and the No.13 Infantry Division of the Royal Army of the Star Empire. mountain city.

Su Yi nodded slightly, then smiled and said to Lu Sheng: "We took a big deal this time. Your commander will be able to bring more troops over in a few days. In these few days, The important task of guarding Kangshan City can only rely on your four infantry regiments."

Su Yi has sent the second battleship squadron of the independent fleet and four destroyers, escorting seven transport ships, back to Xingang City to pick up He Yunfei, and Su Yi will also dispatch an infantry wing from Xingang City and five An ad hoc infantry regiment was formed and rushed to Kangshan Port.

Lu Sheng immediately said loudly: "Don't worry, commander, with the forty 105mm howitzers and twenty 155mm howitzers equipped by the commander, even if the Jisk Empire mobilized a legion of troops, our four infantry regiments The team also has the confidence to stick to Kangshan City for more than a month, or even longer!"

Today is April 1th, and now the troops of the Jisk Empire who have invaded the Weinan Province of the Tianxing Empire will need at least three or four days to reach Kangshan City, and He Yunfei will take about five days to reach Kangshan City with six regiments. Being able to come to Kangshan City, by May [-]st, Su Yi could add another [-] army officers and soldiers and [-] naval officers and soldiers to Kangshan City.

Coupled with the strong combat effectiveness of the biochemical soldiers and the large amount of weapons and ammunition in the system item warehouse, Su Yi is still very confident in defending Kangshan City and even Kangshan Port.

Su Yi then turned to Wang Chengliang, the commander of the independent fleet, and asked, "How about the shipyard in Kangshan Port?"

Wang Chengliang said with a smile: "Marshal, it is much better than I imagined. This shipyard has four 24-ton docks, four 70.00-ton docks, six [-]-ton docks, and [-] Among the ten small docks, four light cruisers and six destroyers are under construction, and more than [-]% of the six destroyers have been completed."

Su Yi was a little surprised and said: "How could the shipyard in Kangshan Port have so many large docks? Doesn't it mean that the Skystar Empire does not have the strength to build battleships?"

Wang Chengliang immediately said: "I asked several managers of the shipyard, and I learned that the large docks in the Kangshan Port Shipyard are all built for the maintenance of battleships. Maybe the Sky Star Empire will also use these large docks to build their own battleships in the future. .”

"It's cheaper for us. In this naval battle, we captured four dreadnought battleships, four former dreadnought battleships and two ironclad battleships of the Jisk Empire Navy. There is room for overhaul. The Kangshan Port Shipyard can still Is it working normally?"

"There is no problem with starting work. Thousands of technicians and workers in Kangshan Port Shipyard all live in Kangshan City. I heard from several managers that these technicians and workers basically did not leave Kangshan City. Most of the people who left Kangshan City together were officials and wealthy businessmen, and not many ordinary people left.”

Su Yi nodded and said: "Then let the Kangshan Port Shipyard start construction immediately, and repair the ten battleships we captured as soon as possible. After more than a month, the independent fleet will have to face an expeditionary fleet of the world's second navy!"

The four dreadnought battleships captured by the independent fleet this time, including two Holy Sword-class and two Jewel-class, Holy Sword-class dreadnought battleships have six double-mounted 45 times the caliber of 305 mm main guns, standard displacement 21300 tons, full load displacement 22350 tons.

The gem-class dreadnought battleship has five dual-mounted 45-caliber 305mm main guns, with a standard displacement of 19500 tons and a full-load displacement of 21000 tons.

Although the four former dreadnought battleships captured were of different models, they all had a full-load displacement of more than 40 tons. They all had four 305mm main guns with a caliber of 203 and four [-]mm secondary guns.

The two ironclad battleships have a full-load displacement of 30 tons, and each has four 305mm main guns with a caliber of [-] times.

There is no shortage of naval officers and soldiers in Su Yi's hands, so Su Yi decided that after the ten battleships are repaired, they will all join the independent fleet.

During the naval battle, an armored cruiser with a displacement of more than [-] tons and a light cruiser with a displacement of about [-] tons were also captured. The injuries of these two warships are not too serious. After repairs, they will also enter Sequence of the Independent Fleet.
