The Iron Ship Island of the Great Voyage

The arrival of the Salo royal family made a lot of noise this time. The main fleet of the Royal Navy came five or six out of ten, and most of the extraordinary masters in the army were also drawn.Except for the necessary forces to defend the capital, it can be said that they are all out.

The extermination of the "Golden Tooth Pirates" a few days ago was just practice, and today's suppression of Philip Ling is the ultimate goal of this trip.

At the same time, Tianlan Royal Navy battleship "Golden Lion" boarded.

The current king of Tianlan "Saluo I" is in a good mood.

He originally thought that there would be a fierce battle to win the tough bone of Philip's collar, but now it seems that this wave of beasts alone has destroyed [-]% of the enemy's combat effectiveness.The two-day and one-night beast swarm almost destroyed all the warships in Philip's territory, and the artillery and ammunition were also exhausted.

In other words, they can't organize a decent resistance force at all now, so they can only be beaten passively.

Now Philip collar is like a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out and its claws drawn out. Even though the fierce power is still there, it can't make any waves.

I originally wanted to use this battle to publicize the prosperous national power that I have managed for more than ten years since I took the throne.It's a pity that before the punch was released, the opponent had already fallen.

King Salo I came here with great enthusiasm, but he seemed to be returning with a lack of interest.

"I think it's good for the fleet to stay in this sea area first. It's too close, I'm afraid it will be harmful to your majesty's safety..."

"I think this is a little too cautious... As far as I know, the maximum range of Philip's magic cannon is only ten nautical miles, and we are now a full thirty nautical miles away... There is nothing to be afraid of!"

"But... I'm afraid that Philip VIII has other backers."

"Hehe, Varosha, you 'Minister of Defense' seems to be getting more and more timid...Thinking of how majestic His Majesty was back then, he single-handedly killed several fifth-rank court masters in the previous dynasty, and killed Campbell X in two years. In front of the army formation, this established the glorious situation of today's Tianlan, shocking the world. Today's such a small scene, you are still so timid, and you don't let people see it as a joke? Besides, you don't think that the current remnant army Is Philip, the defeated general, still capable of stopping my Tianlan Royal Navy?"

"Erwen, fighting a war is not a matter of bravery! The rash words just now are really ill-intentioned... If your majesty's safety is even a little bit wrong, you, the vice president of the Royal Academy, must be to blame!"

"..."

Saro I was sitting on the golden throne, listening to the arguments of his ministers, faintly aroused the fighting spirit in his heart.

Finally, he was still a little moved, and decided: "It's okay... just drop anchor every [-] nautical miles, and notify the Predator fleets in each territory to prepare to attack."

If the ministers hadn't tried their best to dissuade him, he really wanted to fight Philip in person, to try the fighting power of the legendary "No. [-] Black Sea Master".

"Your Majesty, do you think we are going to annihilate the entire Phillip Territory right now?"

"Let's use the banner to persuade them to surrender first. After all, if we do too badly, we may pay other remaining territories in the future, which will have a bad impact."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty...Philip led this thorn to wipe out, and the old stubbornness left over from the previous dynasty is no longer a problem. Tianlan's unification is just around the corner."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty..."

At this moment, all the officials congratulated.

Saro I always had a relaxed smile on his face, enjoying it quite a bit.

He yelled: "Send the order, accept the persuasion! Don't touch the civilian city infected with the plague without authorization, isolate it on the spot, and let them fend for themselves. And...we accept the surrender of all other nobles led by Philip, but Philip VIII and his family will not be left alone! One hour after the semaphore, there are still stubborn enemies in the corner, shoot and kill!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The generals took the lead.

Everyone didn't notice that upon hearing the news, the eyes of the vice president of Tianlan Royal Naval Academy, Ai Erwen, flashed an imperceptible red light, vaguely like the eyes of a crow.

.......

"My lord, the slums after the [-]th district have already hung up the 'war-free flag'... The leader over there sent a message...saying..."

"say what?"

"Say, 'My lord, please leave a way for the citizens to survive'..."

"Hey... pass my order to abolish the 'territorial defection and sinking doctrine', and it is not allowed to attack the surrendered civilian neighborhoods, let them go."

"But, my lord... the morale of the army is not stable now. If we do this, other districts may follow suit."

"It's okay."

In fact, it goes without saying that everyone can guess the result that "civilian areas will surrender without a fight".

Because of the plague, all the civilian cities after the fifteenth district were isolated, making them feel abandoned.What's more, the artillery equipment of the ship island in the civilian block is backward. In this beast tide, the most casualties are also in the civilian block...

After these tosses, the hearts of the people have fallen to the bottom.Even now that the Tianlan Royal Navy is approaching the city aggressively, if you want the civilians to fight for the territory again, unless you are forced to die, it will be very difficult.

Not long after,

The subordinates came to report again.

"My lord, the Tianlan Royal Fleet has assembled and anchored [-] nautical miles away, and we are surrounded. The enemy sent ships to show the flag of surrender... The commanders of the noble blocks on the seventh, eighth, tenth, and eleventh also followed suit. The 'white flag' was hoisted, they broke away from the defensive circle of the territory without authorization, and it seemed that they were preparing to surrender to the Tianlan Royal Navy."

All the civilian areas surrendered, and more than half of the ship islands in the aristocratic neighborhoods were also gone.

Before the war started, Grand Duke Philip was about to fall into the embarrassing situation of "no soldiers available".

From the perspective of onlookers, in fact, from the moment the parliament chose to split and isolate the territory due to the outbreak of the plague, Philip has already announced the end of the glorious era of the former "Tianlan First Leader".

......

At the same time,

The expected shelling did not happen.

Archduke Philip seems to have completely given up his dying struggle, and did not choose to sink these deserted islands.

The "Rodney Family" decisively chose to pull anchor and set sail as soon as the sea beast receded. It took only a short while to travel more than ten nautical miles and successfully escaped from the attack circle led by Philip.

The current head of the Rodney family, Nanaba Rodney, is a fat middle-aged man with a red beard.

At this moment, he was standing on the deck of the ship island, blowing the sea breeze, looking back at the Phillip Academy, with excitement in his eyes.

"Phew... It made me worry for nothing, and I pulled so many islands to block the guns. Now I haven't fired a single gun... It seems that Philip VIII has given up struggling."

Next to Nanaba is a graceful and luxurious woman, with Danfeng eyes and willow-leaf eyebrows, she still has a bit of beauty.A few days ago she was called Mrs. Clive by others, and now...she has resumed her real name, Isa Rodney.

"Hehe, we have already left the furthest range of the artillery, even if Philip VIII wants to shoot, he will be too far away!"

Isa frowned, and there was no more respect in her tone, "Philip VIII is really a stupid and stubborn guy! Swear allegiance to the new king earlier, won't you come to the situation where everyone is betrayed today..."

"If it weren't for being forced to be helpless, who would want to have that rebellious heart..."

Nanaba also sighed: "At the beginning, the new king gave such generous conditions, but he still ignored them. As a result, the old families in our territory have also lost a lot of wealth due to the kingdom's 'trade sanctions' over the years. The territory belongs to everyone, not Philip VIII alone! This kind of lord who does not consider the nobles of the territory is destined to be destroyed."

Pausing for a while, Nanaba seemed to think of something, and asked again: "Isa, what do you think that Clive eunuch is hesitating about? Why doesn't he go to the island now?"

He originally thought that old Clive was waiting and watching out of caution, intending to let his group of people test Philip's reaction, so he didn't leave immediately.But now most of the families of their faction have evacuated, but the Clive family is still completely silent.

This makes people somewhat suspicious of his motives.
