The way the world works won't change because of the discovery of a cat girl who can fight, at least not while she's still in school.
Just when Leer's military training instructor discovered her amazing talent, the Kingdom of Susas sent Tang Mo an unsatisfactory telegram.
The Kingdom of Susas successfully increased its national power due to tax reform, but also caused dissatisfaction among many people due to tax reform.
In the past, this discord was suppressed because Cyric's consortium did not cause trouble, but now, because of Cyric's instigation and manipulation, the political situation in Susus has become unstable.
The king of Susas and the prime minister were busy dealing with the civil strife, and soldiers from neighboring countries were pressing down on the border.
In desperation, the Kingdom of Susas had no choice but to send a telegram to Tang Mo asking for help, hoping that he could take action in advance to avoid being unable to look after each other when a crisis broke out in Susas in the future.
As a result, Tang Mo had to mobilize a batch of supplies and send them to Sussus urgently. However, compared with the intensity of supporting Wright, this time the reinforcements were not that large-scale.
Since war has not yet broken out in Susus, most of the support transferred to Sussus this time is economic products.
Tang Mo hopes to use the economic benefits brought by these materials to stabilize the internal affairs of Susas and help suppress the hostile elements who stir up trouble at the source.
The good news is that there is a railway between Tangmo and Susas. This railway connects Bunas to the Bingjing River. It has been connected for a long time and does not require any further investment.
The magic of railways was revealed at this time. The only two railways in Tang Mo's hands played a strategic role in this way, allowing the materials produced by Bunas and Longdao to reach the locations where they were needed without any delay.
While Tang Mo was dispatching his troops to deal with the pressure from Susas and Wright, the fleet commander Bernard, who was idle in Rewind Port, stared dumbfoundedly at the densely packed sails appearing on the sea, shocked.
I was speechless for a long while.
He really couldn't believe that he was waiting at Rewind Port and was ready to return home at any time, and the enemy could come to his door... Could this be the legendary situation where a person sits at home and gets hit on the head with credit?
What’s even more funny is that after the other party attacked the armed merchant ships in the alert Rewind Port, they waited for more than 2 hours, waiting for Datang Group’s steel fleet boiler to completely heat up, and waiting for Bernard to see their messenger...
"The Kingdom of Talon orders you to surrender!" the messenger said with determination: "Otherwise, you will be completely wiped out by 100 warships of the Kingdom of Talon!"
"I'm not interested in the jokes you're telling me at all." Bernard looked at the courier in brown military uniform and said, "Let your commander wash his neck and wait for death!"
"General Warren will remember what you said today!" The messenger coldly threatened Bernard: "Your fleet will be sunk and you will die in the cold water!"
Bernard was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the adjutant next to him with disdain: "I remember what I said, and I also remember this general named Warren, remember what he said!"
"Send him back!" After he finished speaking, he took off the navy uniform jacket hanging on the wall: "My flagship is easy to identify. I hope more of you will come to catch me!"
The Wolf 1 battleship is indeed easy to identify. As the world's first true cruiser, its hull is much longer than the Bunas-class ironclad.
It is very fast and is good at long-distance raids and interception operations. With its powerful firepower and steel hull, its naval combat capabilities also crush all warships of this era.
After all, it was designed to replace the existence of Bunas-class battleships, so it naturally surpassed its predecessors in terms of firepower and speed.
When black smoke rises from the sea, the roar of machinery is like a war drum, inspiring the courage of the soldiers of Datang Group's maritime security force.
They are waiting for war to break out, or rather they expect war to break out, and their opponents obviously don't know this yet.
"The speed has increased to 20 kilometers! The boiler power is slowly increasing! Although the battleship is not in the best condition, it is ready to fight!" The adjutant reported to his captain on the bridge of a Bunas-class battleship.
"Has the commander boarded the flagship?" The captain put down his telescope, looked at the adjutant beside him, and asked for confirmation.
"Commander Bernard has boarded the Wolf 1 battleship, and the commander's flag has been raised on the mast. I saw it with my own eyes. There is no problem." The adjutant replied immediately.
"Then, stand by and hand over the command to Commander Bernard." The captain breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the telescope again, and looked at the sea in the distance.
The sailing battleship from the Kingdom of Talon was very close. The opponent seemed to have set up a figure-eight formation, splitting its forces into two groups, trying to flank the four strange enemy ships that were spitting out black smoke and rushed out of the port.
On the bridge of the Wolf 1 cruiser, Bernard suddenly became a little nervous. He was afraid that the prey in front of him would run away...
"Maintain the basic speed of 20 kilometers! Execute according to the tactics! Line up in order! Our ship takes the lead, and the remaining warships follow according to the pre-plan! Engage the enemy on the starboard side! Defeat the enemy fleet on the right first!" After a few nervous seconds, Bo
Nader issued his first order of the day.
Immediately afterwards, he issued the second order: "Left rudder! 15 degrees!"
His purpose in adjusting the course was to find a way to align the starboard side of his fleet with the enemy's left-wing fleet in the distance, which was the side of the figure eight.
"Order the three sail warships and two armed merchant ships in Rewind Port to detach from the fleet and return to Rewind Port!" Then he issued the third order.
The speed of his fleet will eventually increase to more than 30 kilometers per hour. At that time, our own sail warships that followed the steel battleships out of Rewind Port will be thrown away, and the fleet will be out of touch.
In order to avoid unnecessary losses, Bernard decided to send the lagging sail warships back early. Although this would weaken the number of his fleet, this numerical weakening would not affect his core combat power.
Half an hour ago, General Warren waited for the returning messenger. He admired the courage of the other commander.
He has 70 first-class sailing warships, but the number of warships his opponent just sailed out of Rewind Port was a pitiful 8!
Among these eight battleships, there were only two first-class sailing battleships that he was familiar with, and two armed merchant ships that were assembled together.
He never expected that his opponent's weak lineup would dare to go out to fight. Then he saw a scene that made him want to laugh - the opponent's only two level 1 sailing battleships actually brought two armed merchant ships.
He broke away from the fleet and retreated backwards.
In his opinion, this was simply an internal strife in the enemy's fleet. The main fleet did not obey orders, broke away from the fleet without permission, and fled back to the harbor.
Therefore, he was not prepared to attack those cowardly enemy ships at all, and focused his attention on these strange guys with no sails and black smoke in front of them.
"Turn the ship around! Engage the enemy on the broadside! Prepare for a broadside battle!" Warren put down his monocular and ordered proudly.
Following his order, his fleet began to turn and began to cut into the battle line, so the fleet formation of the Talon Kingdom began to change, and the entire shape changed from "eight" to something like "
