Chapter 608 The Great Ship
Medland Glory Calendar 1380, February 1.
The weather in the northern border of the Delun Empire began to improve, and the frozen rivers and lakes had already thawed. An anxious farmer had already started to take care of the work in the fields. Those mines and forest farms that stopped due to heavy snow and cold were also slowly recovering their vitality.
Jiasica Island is as hot, humid as ever, full of too strong vitality.
On the southeast side of Jiasica Island, there are sparsely populated areas, with large areas of jungle and grassland mixed between steep cliffs, and large groups of gray-white goats are flexibly jumping between the cliffs.
The wild flowers are blooming incredibly gorgeous, with countless bees and butterflies and other insects flying in the grass, and the flowers are filled with an upset "buzzing" sound in the air.
An Imperial army wearing an iron-gray uniform and holding a new assault rifle surged out of a jungle.
They climbed down a cliff with a little difficulty and spread out along the beach to both sides. They scared away a large group of goats and also shocked countless water birds who made nests on the cliffs.
A team of artillerymen selected artillery positions on several cliffs and set up new large-caliber mortars.
Around these artillery soldiers, there were palace knights wearing armor.
Amid the low roar of wolf, a group of dark gray wolves led a group of mixed-race big mastiffs, running around left and right under the leadership of a group of scouts. Every gap in the cliff that could hide people was seriously flipped over and overturned by them.
It took more than two hours to go, when the sun rose above my head, the wilderness beach that radiated dozens of miles had been completely martial law.
A faint stream of light flashed across the sky, and the huge celestial god chariot rushed over. It quietly hangs in the sky for a while, then spits out a thin light of lightning all over, falling down little by little with a slight roar of ionization.
On the ground, several signal soldiers waved the flags in their hands vigorously, guiding the God's chariot to slowly land on a beach.
The metal shell of the God's chariot was squirming like flowing water, and a gangway stretched out from the cracked door. Salian, Duke of Ross, Hessen, Joe, and several Salian's confidant generals walked out along the gangway.
"The scenery here is nice." Salian held a thin cigarette, spitting out smoke, and looked around.
"This is a natural deep-water harbor. If developed effectively, the local fleets of the two Ice Sea Kingdoms can easily dock." Duke Ross was wearing a blood-colored long dress, with dozens of blood-colored mountain azaleas on his wide-brimmed hat. The small folding fan in his hand shook quickly like the wings of a bee.
"It's a pity that the Navy of Jiasica... is like this... those merchant ships are more willing to go to Tulun Port for fun. So, although the engineers of the Jiasica garrison had already surveyed this natural port twenty years ago, it has never been useful."
Duke Ross looked helplessly at the rolling sea water in front of him.
Qiao looked at the surrounding terrain with no idea. Well, similar to Tulun Port, there are naturally several stone beams composed of reefs that extend into the sea far away. The longest stone beam penetrates the sea at least five or six miles.
At the end of the stone beams, there are several natural atolls that form a natural breakwater that blocks the waves from the deep sea.
The stone beams and the breakwater, along with two large cliffs in the distance, are circled with a calm inner sea area of nearly twenty miles long and ten miles wide.
The terrain near this inland sea is also extremely gentle. The gentle sand and bushes extend seven or eight miles to the northwest. This flat land is more than twenty miles long, which is enough to build countless buildings, countless warehouses, workshops, taverns, hotels, etc.
This is a perfect deep-water port.
But as Duke Ross said, it is located in the southeast of Jiasica, far from the densely populated north, northwest, southwest and central areas of Jiasica.
It is not worth the cost to build a port here.
Just the big cat and kitten warships of the Jiasica squadron cannot use such a large port.
Since the merchant ships of major chambers of commerce in Tulun Port have arrived in Jiasica, they can return to Tulun Port to unload their goods with a little effort. Who would choose to stop at the southeastern sea port of Jiasica where only birds shit?
Are you doing business with the mountain gods and wild ghosts here?
"However, it's a good place. If there are enough warships, it's extremely convenient to get in and out of Storm." Qiao muttered.
Salian stretched out his long arms and hugged Joe's shoulders. His palms slapped Joe's head with force: "Dear Marquis Joe von Weitu, look, the Gaul Republic is constantly transporting trucks of soldiers to the Lanyin Corridor by train."
"The royal families and lords of the Lucian Empire have gone crazy. They have lost the Lulai Plain and are famine in the country. They can't wait to retake the Lulai Plain. They have organized millions of gray animals and have already stockpiled them on the border of the Lulai Plain."
"To the east, the lords of Lucia are expanding their troops, recruiting troops, and borrowing money to purchase arms and supplies."
"In the southwest, more than 20 vassal states in Lucia have formed a million-scale joint army under the slogan of revenge for the two princes who were seriously injured."
"Not to mention the west, the mercenary group hired by the United Kingdom of Nice also gathered hundreds of thousands of people."
"I am busy dispatching troops every day, and every day I calculate where each new ordnance should be transferred to, where which army should be stationed..."
"Out of trust in you, I believe your nonsense. I will accompany you here with someone... You said you want to show me a miracle, so I will wait and see!"
Hesen laughed wildly with a big cigar on the side: "Your Highness, Joe is an honest child. He said that if there is a miracle, there will be a certain way."
Salian squinted his eyes and looked at Hesen: "If Joe could really see a miracle for me, the Empire would never be stingy with rewards... Well, the time is almost over, let's start!"
Salian patted Joe on the shoulder hard.
Qiao lifted the belt upwards, and he said in a deep voice: "Then, let's start, indeed, you can't waste time. His Highness Salian, we spent several days transporting a large amount of steel, alloy, rubber, oil and other materials into the God's chariot..."
"But here...there are people who are trustworthy."
Salian shrugged.
Fox, the Big Caesar and the Little Caesar brothers, and several confidant generals brought by Sallyan laughed at the same time.
They winked each other - look at this proud boy, ha, there are people who are trustworthy here... Could it be that he really has any earth-shaking secrets?
Fox sighed in his heart that Salian was too generous to Joe.
He put countless military aircraft and did not deal with major issues, allocated huge resources, filled the huge warehouse of the God's War Chariot, and then accompanied Qiao from Fort Heidra to Jiasica to make trouble.
When Salian was handling military affairs and government affairs, even if Salian's favorite eldest son, Isaac, dared to make trouble, Salian would teach Isaac how to be a human being with a metal head.
But Joe...
Fox could only complain in his heart: "Okay, good luck Joe, Her Majesty the Queen believes in this, and Prince Mata believes in this. Now, even His Highness Salian is beginning to believe in this... Is this kid's luck so good?"
"Before, at Heidra Fort, I didn't tell you why we came to Jiasica with so many special resources... because even if I said that at that time, no one would believe it, or there would be a lot of research, research, etc. Moreover, Heidra Fort... is just like a sieve, and I don't think the secret I just told was spread all over the sky."
Joe looked at Sallyan seriously, then looked at Fox and others.
Salian and others twitched in waves, revealing an extremely awkward expression.
'sieve'?
Haha, even a sieve cannot describe the current Heidra Fort.
Whether within the palace or various departments of the empire, with the efforts of Mata XIII these days, the empire's official arrested countless officials and generals by using the "melon mane copying".
sieve?
hehe.
Not to mention the administrative departments of the civil service system, there were a group of unreliable dangerous elements in the navy and army of the Delun Empire.
Another king of the arrested Al organization, the man named Magnificent Tower, was tortured by Mata Thirteen himself... God knows how many sensational inside stories will be dug out later!
"So, I can only pretend to be mysterious... I can only use His Highness Salian's trust in me willfully mobilize these resources, and ask everyone to accompany me to Jiasica."
Qiao smiled loudly with his hands behind his back, "Before the official start, I would like to ask everyone, if here in Jiasica, the empire suddenly had a powerful, super-era fleet that could crush all the countries in the Medlands..."
Salian's pupils suddenly lit up, and his iron-gray eyes spewed out a shiny blood light that made people dare not look directly at.
He said in a deep voice: "Joe, don't keep it aside, let me see what kind of surprises you have prepared for me... If there is such a fleet, then... well, did you lend Ferdinand a hundred and five billion goldmarks?"
Qiao laughed dryly: "His Highness Ferdinand and I will do some business together...that's all, ah, this matter is not important..."
Salian held his hands behind his back, his right foot was a little excited, crushing a huge conch shell under his feet: "If I could see such a fleet, then I would mobilize the secret funds of the Army Department and hand them over to my father to operate. All the benefits will be given to you 10%."
Joe's eyes widened.
Duke Ross' eyes lit up, and she giggled: "Your Highness, and dear Joe... I have been in a very embarrassing past years. It's just a Kasica island, but I can't support many troops... I haven't changed a good set of jewelry in many years?"
"If there is such a fleet, I think I can grit my teeth and take out some cash."
Hesen stared at Joe with a strange look.
If the Delun Empire can really be destroyed in one battle...not to mention everything, even if it is just the local fleet of the Ice Sea Kingdom and most of the main forces of several other countries, the benefits that can be made here will be too great.
Marine trade, colonies, stock bonds...
Hesen licked the corner of his mouth hard: "Joe, tell me, your incident this time must be related to this God's Chariot, right?"
