Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 48 The Unwilling Cang Yu Navy
After the Cangyu Empire and the Liuyun Empire surrendered one after another, the Skystar Empire soon signed an armistice treaty with the Jisk Empire. This armistice treaty is very similar to the armistice agreement between Cangyu Empire and Sharad, except for the amount of war reparations. , and restricting the size of the army of the Skystar Empire are slightly different.

After signing this armistice agreement, the Skystar Empire needs to compensate the Jisk Empire with 20 billion taels of silver, which will be paid off in 12 years. If interest is added, the final compensation amount of the Skystar Empire will reach 32 billion taels of silver.

From now on, the total strength of the Skystar Empire Army must be limited to less than 200 million, and the total displacement of the Skystar Empire Navy must be limited to less than 12 tons.

The Skystar Empire Navy also needs to compensate the Jisk Empire with four former dreadnought battleships, four ironclad battleships, four medium-sized armored cruisers, six light cruisers and eight destroyers to offset the 7000 million taels of silver that was paid in the war reparations. .

When the three armistice agreements were published in the newspapers of the Cangyu Empire, Liuyun Empire and Tianxing Empire, it immediately caused an uproar among the people of the three countries. After all, the three armistice agreements were too harsh. Emotionally unacceptable at all.

The key is that there is no harm without comparison. The Ziyue Empire, which has the same origin as Cangyu, Liuyun and Tianxing, even the emperor and all the princes died in the capital, but they did not choose to surrender to the invaders. The three princesses of the imperial family stood up again, leading the soldiers and civilians of the Ziyue Empire to continue fighting against the invaders.

Even the capital, Ziyue City, has been turned into ruins. Under the leadership of the two princesses, the army of the Ziyue Empire is still standing in Ziyue City and fighting brutal street battles with the Jisk Empire's army.

Compared to the royal families of the Ziyue Empire, the royal families of the Cangyu, Liuyun and Tianxing Three Kingdoms are so weak that they don’t even have the backbone of the Tang people. The status in their hearts plummeted, and the people in many places in the three countries spontaneously organized demonstrations to oppose the royal families of their respective countries and sign such treaties that humiliated the country. dissatisfied.

Many young men from Cangyu, Liuyun and Tianxing even rushed directly to the Ziyue Empire, preparing to join the Ziyue Empire's army to resist the invasion of the Tang people by the alien race.

On July 3011, [-] in the Tang Dynasty, at this time, in the port of Huifeng Port, the largest military port of the Cangyu Empire, three fleets of the Royal Navy of the Cangyu Empire gathered.

On the bridge of the dreadnought battleship Dongfang, Liu Ji, the commander of the Second Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Cangyu Empire, asked in a deep voice to Feng Lin, the commander of the First Fleet, and Huo Jian, the commander of the Third Fleet: "In two more days, The fleet of the Sharad Imperial Navy will arrive at Huifeng Port to receive the warships of our three major fleets, what do you think?"

The Royal Navy of the Cangyu Empire has a total of five fleets, among which the first fleet, the second fleet and the third fleet belong to the main fleet, and the strength of the other two fleets is far worse than the previous three fleets.

Huo Jian, the commander of the Third Fleet, gritted his teeth and said: "Even if the warships of the Third Fleet are sunk, I don't want to hand over those warships to the navy of the Sharad Empire. This is simply an insult to the Royal Navy of the Cangyu Empire! "

Feng Lin, the commander of the First Fleet, sighed, and asked Liu Ji, the commander of the Second Fleet: "Brother Liu, what are your plans?"

Liu Qi sneered and said: "I am going to lead the Second Fleet to leave and seek refuge with the Ziyue Empire. Right now, the Ziyue Empire still has a bit of backbone. Our Cangyu Empire, Liuyun Empire and Tianxing Empire are simply old. The face of the ancestors has been lost!"

The other two fleet commanders did not show any surprise on their faces when they heard Liu Ji's words. Although Cangyu, Liuyun, Tianxing and Ziyue had many conflicts, the people of the four countries were all People from the Tang clan had a great flow of people among the four kingdoms. People from the Cangyu Kingdom would seek refuge in the Ziyue Kingdom, which would not cause any criticism. Of course, it was unprecedented to take a fleet to seek refuge with them.

Huo Jian, the commander of the Third Fleet, immediately said loudly: "Yes! All three of our fleets will go to the Ziyue Empire, which will save the Sharad Empire. Since the old emperor Zhao Zhi sold our navy, don't blame us for treason." Get out of the Cangyu Empire!"

Feng Lin, the commander of the First Fleet, smiled wryly at this time and said: "This time the emperor sent two dreadnought battleships, eight former dreadnought battleships, six large armored cruisers, six medium armored cruisers, twelve light cruisers and twelve A destroyer, the compensation to the navy of the Sharad Empire can offset the compensation of [-] million taels of silver. If we take the three major fleets away, then the Sharad Empire will definitely not let it go, and will the Ziyue Empire take in us bereaved dogs? ?”

Liu Ji, the commander of the Second Fleet, pondered for a moment and said: "Brother Feng, we can contact the Ziyue Empire first. If the Ziyue Empire dare not accept us, then we will go to Su Yi of the Liuyun Empire. Presumably he should not will reject our three fleets, and what will happen to the Sharad Empire is out of our control."

Feng Lin, the commander of the First Fleet, hesitated and said: "It's okay to seek refuge with Su Yi, after all, his fleet can even defeat a huge expeditionary fleet of the Sharad Empire, but after we leave, what will our family do?" ?”

Liu Ji immediately said: "Many of the officers and soldiers of our three major fleets have family members in Huifeng Port. We can bring all of them with us. Of course, we won't force those who don't want to leave."

Feng Lin nodded slowly and said: "Then contact Ziyue Empire first to see what their attitude is!"

In the palace of Suisheng City, the accompanying capital of the Ziyue Empire, Empress Ouyang Xue held the telegram in her hand and excitedly said to Prime Minister Guo Xian: "Great! The First Fleet, Second Fleet and Third Fleet of the Cangyu Royal Navy , willing to take refuge in our Ziyue Empire and join our Ziyue Empire's Royal Navy!"

Prime Minister Guo Xian said with a look of embarrassment: "Your Majesty, although it is a good thing that the three major fleets of the Cangyu Royal Navy are willing to join our Ziyue Empire, according to the armistice agreement between Cangyu and Sharad, the three major fleets of the Cangyu Royal Navy Many warships will be paid to the Sharad Navy as part of the war reparations, and once we receive the three major fleets of the Cangyu Royal Navy, it will definitely arouse the anger of the Sharad Empire."

Empress Ouyang Xue waved her hand and said: "Our Ziyue Empire and the Sharad Empire are enemies. Even if there is no such thing, the Sharad Empire should invade us, or it will still invade us. Immediately give the Cangyu Royal Navy First Fleet, The three commanders of the Second Fleet and the Third Fleet called back, we Ziyue Empire welcomes them and is willing to award them corresponding titles of honor!"
