The first ray of sunlight in the morning hits the huge "God of Liberty" statue. The entire Neverwinter Harbor is quiet and peaceful, and everything seems natural.
It's just that Dorne's once magnificent main fleet has now disappeared, leaving only a few battleships, listlessly docked in the anchorage, like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
The situation at sea has collapsed to a certain extent. Although the Tang Empire did not attack the coast of Dorne, the entire maritime trade route has been destroyed in name only.
Naturally, the trade between Dorne and the entire Western Continent has been completely cut off, and there are also problems with the northward trade route to the Eastern Continent.
The biggest problem is that other empires are eager to draw a clear line with Dorne and no longer continue to import Dorne products.
At this time, who dares to keep in touch with Dorne? Everyone is afraid of the Tang Empire, so they all actively cut off trade and no longer import any goods from Dorne.
Even those that have retained trade links have actually limited their scale and are choosing safer land or air transportation as much as possible instead of sea transportation that is prone to problems.
In the port, a porter ate a steamed bun and prepared to start the day's work. These workers really missed those days when Datang Group controlled Neverwinter Port. At that time, they made more money and lived a safer life.
has hope.
But now, they can only be exploited by the nobles who control the docks, leaving only a meager income to support their families every day.
"Huh..." On the originally quiet dock, a high-pitched engine sound suddenly began to echo. The sound sounded far away, but it also seemed very close.
The old dock worker, who had been working at the dock for more than ten years, raised his head and looked at the sky in the distance, and then he saw two black spots crossing the coastline and flying rapidly inland.
The opponent was flying very low, and its outline was very clear against the sky. The old dock worker could see the round nose and two slightly swept wings.
He has never seen an aircraft painted in such gray and white, and Dorne does not have a jet fighter: with the blueprints stolen from the Yangmu Empire, and the technology purchased secretly before, Dorne has assembled his own jet fighter
Fighters are still some way off from being put into service.
That thing is still in the secret stage of Dorne, and the dock workers in Neverwinter naturally don't know about its existence.
And even if Dorn's jet fighter enters service, it is only an outdated technology of the ME-262 jet fighter and is no longer on the market.
In fact, the air forces of various countries that have obtained the first-generation jet fighter technology are already secretly producing high-performance jet fighters similar to the F-104, or at least the French Mystery Fighter.
What the dock worker in Dorne didn't know was that this was the first time after many years that the Tang Empire's army had returned to Neverwinter. The two planes that had passed over the coastline were flown by the Naval Aviation Corps of the Datang Empire.
Prowler electronic warfare attack aircraft.
A few seconds later, the porter saw something break away from one of the planes he had never seen before, spraying white smoke and rushing towards the city of Neverwinter.
A few seconds later, there was a huge explosion that scared the old porter. Then a plume of black smoke rose from the city, and there was a faint flash of fire in that direction.
"Oh my God, what's going on?" A young porter emerged from the gap between the materials piled on the dock. He also looked in the direction of the explosion and loudly asked the people around him what happened.
"In that direction...the telecommunications office?" someone speculated. Before he could finish his words, another tragic explosion occurred further away.
In the chaotic city, the streets were full of people fleeing for their lives. The news that the plane from the Tang Empire was coming spread rapidly along with the chaotic crowd. The children were crying helplessly in the crowd, and no one cared about it.
In a building in the distance, a man who was looking at the billowing smoke and dancing firelight put down the equipment in his hand indifferently and put it into his suitcase.
This is a set of laser pointing equipment. The beam it emits is invisible to the naked eye. However, the missile's seeker can capture this beam very clearly and accurately hit the target indicated by the beam.
With this technology, the missiles of the Tang Empire can achieve meter-level accuracy and easily destroy fixed targets they want to destroy.
In the tragic explosion, Neverwinter's telephone exchange was completely destroyed. A building collapsed instantly, and it was impossible for all the staff inside to come out alive.
It was also at this moment that all the officials in Neverwinter who were on the phone, including the military commanders, could only look at the phone receiver full of busy signals and rage impotently.
"Hello? Hello?" In the city lord's palace, the city lord of Neverwinter in Dorne grabbed the receiver of the phone and kept calling. He had just asked the army what the explosion in the city was about.
Logically speaking, if the Tang Empire's planes entered Dorne's airspace, their radar would definitely send out a warning in advance. The air defense alarm should have been sounded long ago, and Dorne's planes should have taken off to intercept...
But the reality is that the Tang Empire's missiles have already hit the city, and he, the city lord of Neverwinter, still doesn't know what happened.
"Hello? Hello? Hello!" On the other side of the phone, the commander of the Neverwinter City garrison was also confused at home. He had just woken up and hadn't gone to work yet... but the city lord called
When they came over, the phone was disconnected again before the two of them said a word.
He didn't know yet that the Tang Empire's planes had accurately destroyed Dorn's headquarters in the city and also destroyed the telephone exchange.
Just when everyone was trying to figure out what was going on, the Dornish air force stationed at the airport outside Neverwinter was the first to know what they were going through.
Four intruder attack planes dropped more than a dozen cluster bombs directly on the airport, instantly digging countless small holes on the airport runway and causing the entire airport to lose its ability to take off and land.
Immediately afterwards, the four planes fired some missiles in succession, hitting some planes parked in the hangar, causing the entire airport to burst into flames. Several bombers exploded in the fire, damaging some oil tankers nearby.
with fighter jets.
"Enemy attack!" The officer on duty shouted the most correct judgment without thinking: "Quick! Quickly sound the battle alarm! Get me to the command post..."
Unfortunately, when he grabbed the phone receiver, hoping to contact a more senior officer, he found that his receiver was filled with busy signals.
