1717 New American Empire

Time passed slowly, and two years of preparation made Adam full of confidence. After two years, the power in his hands has reached its peak. The navy has a total of 300 warships, among which there are no armed merchant ships, and the most are frigates.

One hundred and fifty, one hundred cruisers, and fifty battleships. All of them are warships improved after the latest technological exchanges between eight countries. Their speed and armor have been enhanced, and all major gun positions are equipped with heavy punches.

artillery.

The army is even more powerful, with a total of 300,000 troops, all of which are the most elite and strongest soldiers from the eight countries, and they are all equipped with Hall M1819 rifles and heavy artillery. If it were not for the limited transportation capacity of the fleet, this number could be higher.

An increase of 200,000. Including the sailors of the fleet, there are 310,000 combatable men without affecting the combat effectiveness of the fleet. Of course, this kind of strength does not come without a price. The Holy Roman Empire and some small countries have been

The Eight-Nation Allied Forces broke through and seized all resources.

The whole of Europe has suffered a lot of losses for this batch of equipment. If there were not many colonies to exploit, people in Europe would probably starve to death. But Adam didn't care, anyway, even if there was no American kingdom, he would

Europe will be purged and all non-believers or people with heretical beliefs will be removed. Adam will leave 300,000 troops to stay in Europe to suppress other countries. Then, he will set off with his fleet.

He didn't know it yet, but two empires that had surrendered to him had begun to show their fangs. The Russian Empire and the Turkish Empire had already bought a complete set of muskets and artillery technologies from Xiao Lin. This time Xiao Lin did not cheat.

The technology they provided was very complete, and it was modified for the company's own use. It was easier to build, and its performance was half a percent better. It was originally sold to other forces for the purpose of doing arms business, so selling it to them was not a big deal.

The two empires were mobilizing resources before the technology was in place. Once the technology came back, they immediately began secretive and large-scale manufacturing activities. When Adam and the others set out, the two countries had already armed 50,000 troops. According to the plan, they

Each country had to arm 300,000 troops. Then, they joined forces to attack the eight countries and carve up the whole of Europe. Adam and others sailed all the way and slowly entered the Pacific Ocean.

It was smooth sailing along the way, and we encountered many small storms, but because the ship was strong, there were no major casualties. Ijik had long been prepared and waiting for their arrival. The current Royal Navy has changed from the 21st century

The ten submarines we brought were all used proficiently. Ten

All submarines were dispatched and ambushed on all proven routes from Europe to North America. Although the kingdom's submarine force participated in several battles, they completely wiped out the enemy every time. Even if one or two lucky ones escaped.

When I got out, not many people believed what I said.

Without knowledge of submarines, the power of submarines can be multiplied by ten. Of course, Ijik does not need them to attack the enemy. It only needs to track the fleet and report their news at any time. After two years of development

, Xiao Lin also built high-power radio transmission facilities throughout the North American continent and some hidden islands. Therefore, there is no

Line communication is now completely smooth, but the maintenance cost is a bit high. There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, the Kingdom cannot launch satellites into the sky.

They can get news about the enemy fleet from submarines at any time, and Ijik has prepared a big gift for them this time. The entire Kingdom fleet currently has 200 warships set out, which is quite different in number, and the difference in tonnage is also very large.

Large. However, all warships have steel structures, and there are dozens of complete steel warships. Because they use mature steam engines, they are faster and more flexible.

Not to mention the firepower, no matter how large the caliber of the front-loaded artillery is, the power it can exert is not as good as a 75mm rapid-fire cannon. The worst artillery on the Kingdom's fleet is also a 75mm rapid-fire cannon, and its firepower is far more powerful than Adam's three-gun.

Hundreds of battleships. The fleet is hidden not far from the Hawaiian Islands. At this time, there are only some savages and pirates on the island, and not many people pay attention to it. Since the fleet, a marine regiment has easily controlled the place.

Everyone was taken away, and all clean water sources were poisoned. The poison was not very toxic, it just caused people to have constant diarrhea, but it lasted for a long time. As for food, because there were fish in the sea, there was no way to control it, so I just ignored it.

Doing this can be regarded as giving the European fleet an illusion, making them think that these people have disappeared accidentally. When they go up to resupply, they will know something is wrong. A large fleet is sailing a long distance, and it is impossible to directly fight with the opponent as soon as it arrives.

If you start a war, your chances of winning will be very low.

Especially Adam brought an army of 300,000 people, most of whom were not water-resistant. More than a month of sailing had already exhausted them. If they entered the battlefield without repairing, they would probably die.

People. The Hawaiian Islands are their best repair and supply point, and they will definitely come here. There was no problem with the calculations of Yijik and his staff. Adam and the others indeed stopped in the Hawaiian Islands. Groups of armies disembarked and searched for people on the shore.

Find water, find food, and get your body in order.

There will be no problem if you just drink the water here. The poison is chronic and will take effect two hours later. When the army reported that there was no one on the island and only various things were taken casually, some navy couldn't help it.

, washed up on the shore, and then started eating and drinking. Although the commanders noticed that something was wrong, they could not be too oppressive in front of the large troops and could only be vigilant. It was not that they had not thought about the water source being poisoned.

But the silver needle couldn't detect it, and the people who drank it didn't show up in the army.

There were very few people drinking water at first, and it was only ten minutes before the onset of diarrhea. Naturally, they didn't notice it. The fleet did have insufficient water storage, so they naturally began to send water up. As a result, something happened, and the people with diarrhea became more and more common.

More and more people came. At first, they thought they were sick, but later the number expanded to tens of thousands. The entire fleet immediately sounded the alarm, and all the sailors immediately boarded the ship. The army, who had no water to drink, covered the comrades with diarrhea and set up a defensive line.

After all, there were so many of them that not all of them were infected, only about a quarter of them were poisoned. When they sounded the alarm, Ijik led the fleet here and could already see the patrolling ships.

The ship. Continuous alarm bells rang, and Ijik also received a report from the submarine submarine, knowing that it could not be delayed any longer. The entire fleet filed out from the corner, and under the astonished eyes of the patrol warships, a dozen of the Kingdom's self-made fast iron-clad frigates appeared.

in front of them.

With extremely fast speed, they had already entered the firing range of their own artillery before they crossed the hull. The 75mm rapid-fire cannon fired ten rounds, killing all three patrol warships. The sound of cannons sounded, causing the European fleet to

alert, but at this time, Ijik had already arrived with his fleet.

Under the action of the partially functioning fire control system, the 120mm naval guns on some ironclad ships began to fire. Because they were going to land, the warships of the European coalition were all concentrated together, very densely. There was no need to be too precise at all, just a little precision.

One point, the chance of hitting the enemy warship will increase.

While the Kingdom's fleet was attacking, it also began to fire. Explosive blasting cannons popped out of their chambers and exploded around the enemy's ships. All kinds of sawdust were flying on the European allied warships. Of course, these people did not

It is not that they have no resistance. After all, they are all veteran naval countries. After the initial panic, these people have reacted and begun to organize their own counterattack. Water columns splashed by cannonballs have appeared near the fleet led by Ijik.

"All warships, reserve 20% of the cannonballs, and let me tilt out the remaining cannonballs at an extremely fast speed, and then evacuate immediately!"

"yes!"

As Ijik's order was issued, the fleet's firepower projection intensity suddenly increased by 50% and directly entered the overload state. This will increase the damage to the gun barrels. However, if this war is won, then at any time

You can replace the cannon barrel with a new one, but there are not enough enemies left anyway. If the war fails, no matter how well the cannon barrel is preserved, it will be of no use. Without the supply of artillery shells, no matter how good the cannon barrel is, it will not be as useful as a watermelon knife.

.

The battle ended after half an hour. The entire kingdom fleet fired more than two thousand artillery shells of various calibers at the enemy. Then, relying on the cover of fire and smoke, it left the battlefield. Eleven clippers had to be abandoned because of injuries.

Ships and modified warships, and most of the personnel were rescued. There are still about 20 modified warships and clipper ships that must enter the repair shop later. Of course, the European coalition forces are not without casualties. In fact, their casualties are even greater.

Of the one hundred and fifty frigates, forty-two were silent, and of the one hundred cruisers, twenty-three were silent. There are also many battleships injured, and three battleships may have to withdraw from the battlefield due to injuries. Overall

, with remarkable results. The European coalition forces have just reached

North America was hit hard before landing. If it weren't for the brainwashing by Adam's religious people, their morale would have dropped to the bottom. In the days that followed, Ijik did not appear again. When they appeared again, they would be

During the final decisive battle.

The Kingdom wants to keep all these European coalition forces in North America and the Pacific. After Adam and the others were on tenterhooks for a week, they finally completed their repairs, regrouped, and began to march towards the North American continent. Here, the Kingdom's 300,000 field and garrison army troops have already prepared for them.

The gift is ready.
