Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 7 A Fleet of Two Ships
On a dirt road leading to Xingang City from Fu'an City, the capital of Hedong Province, a huge army is marching towards Xingang City. This army is the No. 80 Sixth Regiment sent to Xingang City by the Sky Star Empire.

The No.80 Sixth Regiment of the Skystar Empire does not belong to the royal family of the Skystar Empire, but belongs to the family army of an earl of the Skystar Empire. Gao Mingkui, the captain of the No.80 Sixth Regiment, is the younger brother of the Earl Gao Mingxiang. The third eldest in the family.

The Heavenly Star Empire is located in the south of the Liuyun Empire, with a land area of ​​about 800 million square kilometers and has forty provinces. The people of the Skystar Empire and the people of the Liuyun Empire have the same origin, they both have black hair and black eyes The yellow-skinned Tang people, the Tianxing Empire also split from the Tang Empire more than 1000 years ago.

In addition to the Tianxing Empire and the Liuyun Empire, there is also the Ziyue Empire in the southwest of the Liuyun Empire, and the Cangyu Empire in the northwest of the Liuyun Empire, which were originally part of the Tang Empire. About 500 million square kilometers, with 33 provinces, the Cangyu Empire's land area is about 800 million square kilometers, with 52 provinces.

The founding emperors of Cangyu Empire, Liuyun Empire, Tianxing Empire and Ziyue Empire were the four dukes of the Great Tang Empire. These four empires almost inherited more than 90.00% of the territory of the Great Tang Empire.

The Cangyu Empire, the Liuyun Empire, the Skystar Empire and the Ziyue Empire are all populous countries. The Cangyu Empire has a population of [-] billion, which is the most populous country in the world. The Liuyun Empire has a population of [-] billion. The Tianxing Empire has a population of one billion, and the Ziyue Empire has a population of nine billion. The existence of these four countries makes the Tang people the most populous nation in the world.

With their huge populations, the above-mentioned four countries are all among the world's most powerful countries. However, the industrial strength and economic strength of the four countries are average, and they can only belong to the second-class powers.

Although the Cangyu Empire, the Liuyun Empire, the Skystar Empire, and the Ziyue Empire have the same roots, they are not in harmony with each other. This time, the Skystar Empire and the Liuyun Empire broke out in a war over a large gold mine on the border between the two countries.

"The captain, the frontline headquarters, just sent a message." An adjutant ran to the horse of the captain Gao Mingkui, and handed a telegram to Gao Mingkui.

Gao Mingkui took it over and took a look, and couldn't help but smiled and said to Gao Mingqi, the deputy captain who was also riding a horse beside him: "I didn't expect Liuyun Empire to have such a foolish defect. With only one infantry squadron, they wanted to defend Xingang City. Could it be?" Do you think our No.80 Sixth Regiment is paper?"

Gao Mingkui said the telegram in his hand and passed it to the deputy captain Gao Mingqi. Gao Mingqi is the cousin of Gao Mingkui and the earl Gao Mingxiang.

Gao Mingqi took the telegram, read it quickly, and said with a smile: "According to the information from the imperial intelligence department, the infantry squadron in this man named Su Yi has just been formed, and the original one in his hand The infantry brigade is about to leave Xingang City, and it seems that our No.80 Sixth Regiment's mission will be completed soon."

The team leader Gao Mingkui shook his stiff neck, and then said with a smile: "Xingang City is the third largest trading port in the south of the Liuyun Empire. Our 86th team has caught up with a fat job this time. My eldest brother is I have always wanted to form another infantry regiment, and I hope Xingang City can help my brother realize this wish."

Vice captain Gao Mingqi's eyes lit up, "If our Gao family can form another infantry regiment, then our Gao family will have four infantry regiments in our hands, and we will not be far away from forming an infantry division."

An infantry division of the Tianxing Empire has four infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, an engineering brigade, a cavalry brigade, a supply regiment and a division headquarters, with a total strength of about 5 troops.

The infantry divisions of the Liuyun Empire, the Cangyu Empire and the Ziyue Empire were similarly organized, with a strength of around 5.

Captain Gao Mingkui suddenly said with a solemn expression: "When my father was alive, I always hoped that our Gao family could form an infantry division. Unfortunately, my father died of illness before seeing that day. Brother and our brothers , I will definitely fulfill my father's dream and form an infantry division belonging to our Gao family!"

Vice-captain Gao Mingqi immediately said: "Third brother, don't worry, when we enter Xingang City, I will dig Xingang City three feet to find the funds to form an infantry regiment."

On the evening of January 3011, [-] in the Tang calendar, at the harbor pier in Xingang City, three cargo ships were already filled with officers and soldiers from the Second Infantry Brigade of Fushan County. The wounded were also sent to three cargo ships.

Only the deputy captain Zhou Xu was left on the pier, and the seven squadron leaders Lu Wei, Wei Sheng, Zhang Biao, Yuan Tianhu, Yang Ping, Zheng Heng, and Zhang Xuezhi were not on board. Of course, the nominal Fushan County Second Infantry Su Yi, the captain of the brigade, will not board the cargo ship.

"Zhou Xu, hurry up and get on the boat! Just in time for the night, you can avoid the warships of the Heavenly Star Empire!" Su Yi said to Zhou Xu with a smile.

Zhou Xu sighed and said, "Fourth young master, why are you bothering? I will keep that 800-ton cargo ship for you!"

"Okay! Thank you! But I probably won't need it! Now the infantry regiment of the Star Empire is coming, and there are too many things in Xingang City, so I won't greet you. We will talk about it later when we have a chance!"

Zhou Xu shook his head helplessly, "Fourth Young Master, take care!"

"Bon Voyage!"

Zhou Xu then took seven squadron leaders and boarded three cargo ships respectively. When the three cargo ships left the dock, Lu Wei, the squadron leader of the [-]st Infantry Squadron, asked Zhou Xu puzzledly: "Brother Zhou, what do you mean by four? Master, what is this for?"

Zhou Xu shook his head and said, "I also don't understand why the fourth young master would do this, but the fourth young master has become famous all over the country this time!"

After the three cargo ships carrying the Second Infantry Brigade of Fushan County had gone far away, Su Yi immediately ordered the soldiers to blockade the port, and then Su Yi took an Edward VII-class battleship and a Bavarian-class battleship in the system item warehouse. It was extracted.

When the two battleships appeared at the two berths of the port, Su Yi immediately purchased 2000 naval-type intermediate combat cyborgs and [-] navy-type junior combat cyborgs from the system mall. These more than [-] navy-type cyborgs People can completely allow the two battleships to exert [-]% combat effectiveness.

Su Yi said to Wang Chengliang who was standing beside him: "These two battleships will be handed over to you, and you will be the commander of this fleet from now on!"

The all-round high-level elite combat biochemical man's superb command strategy includes the three military branches of land, sea and air, so Su Yi appointed Wang Chengliang as the commander of his fleet.

Wang Chengliang said immediately: "Commander, please name these two battleships, and also name this fleet!"

Su Yi pondered for a while and said: "This Edward VII-class battleship is called Jianwei, this Bavarian-class battleship is called Yongxiang, and the fleet is called Xingang Fleet for the time being!"

After a pause, Su Yi continued: "The army of the Skystar Empire this time has a full infantry regiment after all. If we want to defend Xingang City, the two battleships must play the role of the mainstay, so that the infantry regiment of the Skystar Empire Team, taste the taste of large-caliber naval guns."

"Commander, don't worry, I will lead the Yongxiang and Jianwei to cruise around the port, and provide artillery support to the army at any time according to the coordinates measured before."

"How do you communicate between the Army and the Navy?"

"Both Yongxiang and Jianwei are equipped with several radio transmitters, which can be handed over to the Army for contact."

Su Yi nodded, then turned his head and said to He Yunfei: "Perhaps tomorrow, the infantry regiment from the Skystar Empire will arrive at Xingang City, and the defense lines outside the city and inside the city must be laid out before dawn tomorrow. "

He Yunfei said in a deep voice: "Commander, please rest assured that I have recruited more than 2000 civilians from Xingang City, plus more than [-] officers and soldiers from our Xingang City Independent Brigade, and we will be able to complete the outside of the city before twelve o'clock tonight. And the two defense lines in the city, but with the support of the naval guns of the Yongxiang and Jianwei, the defense line in the city should not be used, and the defense line in the city is just in case."

Now the army in Su Yi's hands has exceeded 3000 people, so Su Yi secretly expanded the Xingang Guard Squadron into the Xingang Independent Brigade, which consists of five infantry squadrons, an artillery squadron and a brigade headquarters.

At this time, in the northwest direction outside Xingang City, thousands of people are building fortifications, some of them are biochemical humans in military uniforms, and the other part are civilian workers temporarily recruited.

In the trench that had begun to take shape, a thin young man was digging the soil, and at the same time said to a strong man next to him: "Dazhu, what do you think the Xingang Independent Brigade can stop the army of the Star Empire?"

The strong man Dazhu shook his head and said: "Whether he can stop it or not, as long as we finish our work and give us twenty catties of rice and two canned meat, that canned beef tastes really good, my father, my mother, And my sister has never eaten canned beef!"

"I'm not worried. What if the troops of the Star Empire occupy Xingang City and harm us common people?"

"Sigh—that's also impossible, but those soldiers in the Skystar Empire are also Tang people, so it shouldn't be too much!"

"Our Liuyun Empire's own army generally has poor military discipline, so don't expect all the soldiers in the Skystar Empire to be good people, but this Xingang Independent Brigade that suddenly appeared is not bad. I also gave twenty catties of rice and two canned meat as wages, I wonder if they still recruit people?"

"Stone, are you stupid? The army of the Skystar Empire is coming soon, and you still want to be a soldier at this time!"

"I just said that casually, don't take it seriously, with my physique, people may not be able to want me!"
