Realm of Power

Fatty Zhuo stood on the tall command podium of the Imperial Dragon-class battleship, looking far ahead at the sea. The waves, with their white foam, hit the bottom of the battleship's side. Then they rolled back and the ripples formed hit another ship again. On the side of the steady imperial warship, the weather was clear and cloudless. The blue sea was more like a mirror. The clear water could even I saw the fish chasing each other below, and the chirping of white seagulls came from the top of the mast. On the surface, it was definitely not far from the coastline. The front end of the battleship was like a sharp knife on this sea level. Breaking through the sea in front of us, the huge sail turned into a semicircle in the sea breeze. The sea breeze blew slightly cool on the face, causing the fat man's black hair to float back.

After three days and three nights of sailing, Fatty finally felt the approach of the mainland. The huge waves that once roared and crashed into the bow of the ship were now waves less than half the height of the battleship's side. On October 2, he lingered in the Paput Sea for nearly After two months, the Imperial Navy finally began to head towards the southern sea. Its eyes fell on the white line of swarms of fish in the distance. Fatty heard a steady sound of footsteps behind him.

"Are you looking at the sea, Your Majesty?" The slightly thick voice of Imperial Navy Minister Dustelenko came from behind.

"That's right, I'm just wondering, what is on the other side of this sea area, on the other side of the Obarro continent, is there any other land?" The fat man turned his attention to the emperor's military uniform, which was mainly black and supplemented by silver. , still flat and straight and sticking tightly to his majestic body, increasingly showing his capable and capable masculinity.

"Beyond the sea? This is really in line with my status as a monarch. When everyone is looking at one place, what my monarch sees is always a broader future." A look appeared on the face of Imperial Navy Minister Dustelenko Trance, as the Minister of the Navy, he naturally hopes to conquer all sea areas. But this idea that seems to shock many people, in front of the eyes of my monarch who can always fall into the future, what does my pride mean?

"Who said that His Majesty the Emperor should live a beautiful life every day with a soft and elastic body in his arms? Who came up with this extremely speechless obscenity?" The fat man yawned. . The aura that made all things surrender gradually disappeared. He walked back from the bow of the ship in a very graceless manner and patted the thick shoulder of his naval ±style_txt; minister.

"This is really not my idea, and I don't have the guts. It was Princess Mao Monaqing who decided it." Dustronkai's face suddenly turned pale, and his body trembled slightly as he said, "Countries have always been concerned about His Majesty's movements. It’s the key point to pay attention to. If you want to hide something, you can only choose a reason that everyone agrees with.”

"A reason recognized by everyone..." A malicious smile flashed across the fat man's fair face. He said, "The monarchs of other countries have countless princesses and lovers, and no one pays attention to it. I just have ten wives and a few lovers. Why am I labeled a lustful womanizer by the whole continent? It's not fair." The fat man sighed. He yelled to show that he was really innocent

"I think it's because His Majesty is too good." Dostelenko looked down and lowered his head with a strange expression. He couldn't help but lower his head. I have to secretly praise myself for being smart enough to think of such things.

The Emperor had been in Lisbon for a month. Recently, there was a super rumor that at the Lisbon Business Festival on September 29th, the two beautiful twins of the wealthy Lisbon businessman Tuculas fell in love with each other and were astonished at first sight, so on October 2nd Until now, the emperor has not shown up and has not aroused too many people's suspicions. The lecherous and cruel Emperor of the Falcon Empire has become the label of the Lord. This kind of thing cannot be explained in any case. In addition, the sudden disappearance of the sisters who caused a sensation in Lisbonto, and the picture of the head of the Tuculas family. My smile almost turned into a chrysanthemum smile for a few days. It really makes people unable to doubt the fact that the emperor has left secretly

"Okay, I know what you all think. Isn't this the way the emperor of the Falcon Empire should live?"

Fatty said he was helpless. The emperor could not control other people's thoughts. Fatty knew that in the minds of most Obaro people, he, the emperor of the empire, ruled the most extensive territory of Obaro and owned two-thirds of Obaro. With a huge population, numerous cities, and enviable commercial prosperity, he has the most powerful army in the entire continent. It is not an exaggeration for such a king to have a harem of three thousand people. It is said that although the size of the emperor's harem is not such, there will always be three to four hundred beauties from various countries. There are also countless beauties who directly accepted the harems of the Emperor of Gaul and the Confederate Empire. They are simply enviable. One They all have noses and eyes. It is so normal for such a king to fall in love with a pair of sisters. Be jealous. It feels good to be jealous, at least it is better than being jealous of others!

"Actually, they don't even understand His Majesty..."

Dostelenko looked a little embarrassed and wanted to make up for it, but he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. This kind of thing didn't feel right no matter how he heard it. His Majesty the Emperor's lecherous nature was well known to everyone. , even the generals of the empire had nothing to say that they should be shy about. Instead, they expressed pride that their monarch could form a group of harem princesses. As a monarch, isn't that what you should do? The emperor once ordered the Ministry of Supervision to investigate this.

The result was unexpected. The Minister of Inspection, Lidastov, who had always been known as the mad dog of the empire, had to withdraw the order to investigate in despair the day after the order was issued. There was no other way, and the Minister of Inspection, Lidastov, reported the results of the investigation. My husband looked miserable at that time, as if he had just been trampled by ten thousand horses. After investigation, he found out Even the Imperial Minister of Supervision couldn't bear the truth. Such propaganda actually came from the Imperial Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and all forces in the empire. To put it bluntly, it came from the emperor's own harem, even the Ministry of Supervision. There is no need to confront the entire empire, not to mention the emperor's family affairs.

"Okay, this is the end of this useless greeting. Let's talk about how the situation is ahead."

Thinking of the situation that day, the fat man could only take a deep breath helplessly. He knew that if he continued to press the navy minister, he would not be able to get much out of the question. He just wanted to use such an unreasonable reason for his majestic emperor. To cover up, it’s too cheap, but I have to admit it. Such rumors, which are similar to tidbits, often have enough credibility among most businessmen, and most of the sources of information obtained by spies are also businessmen living in Lisbon. Although the emperor is in Lisbon, he is not really There aren’t many opportunities to show up. As the emperor arrived in Lisbon, the Imperial Intelligence Network also set up a 120,000-point high-voltage line in Lisbon. It was impossible to obtain the emperor's information directly from the upper levels. On the contrary, it was the merchants because of Lisbon's special business atmosphere. , often able to know the situation of some emperors

The emperor would usually sleep until noon before getting up. Every afternoon he would take a leisurely walk on Huacheng Island on the sea outside Lisbon. He would sit on the beach with his beloved concubine under the charming autumn sun and soak up the sun. He would not spend more than two days actually dealing with government affairs. For several hours, the main job was to sign a large number of documents sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It took more than two hours to complain that it was elder abuse, which eventually forced the Ministry of Internal Affairs to reduce the number of documents sent by more than half.

Anyway, there are various rumors in Lisbon. Although intelligence personnel from various countries are also confused by this situation, they are basically certain that the Falcon Emperor, who has always been regarded as the source of the turmoil in Oparo, is indeed in While on half-vacation, he had no plans to fight against the enemy in the east, and he was also nonchalant about the unfavorable situation of the Paput war situation. Of course, there are many smart people in Oparo, and many of them can naturally see the main focus of the empire. The empire is still making a lot of money from selling a large number of weapons to the south, while the big countries in the south are even beating their brains out. The barbaric empire, which is always used to showing off its muscles, is playing with balance this time, and it has reached a point where people are shocked. To a staggering degree. The Aero Empire and the Kingdom of Aden have both pressed on the country, and the Kingdom of Fezer is deeply involved in the Paput War. Although the countries know that a large number of benefits are being lost, they cannot stop for the time being.

“What an amazing strategy.”

"He is worthy of being the founder of the Falcon Empire, a business empire."

from a variety of reports and reviews. In reports that are also filled with high-level reports from various countries, Emperor Aero personally held a secret meeting and concluded that the empire would not expand the scale of war against Fezer because this was not in line with the emperor's style of always being greedy for small profits and taking advantage, and most The monarch also thinks this way. He can make a lot of money without having to fight with soldiers. This good situation, as long as it is a normal No one would choose to break. As for Feize, because the navy encountered a blockade and the rise of the Eight-Nation Alliance in the central region directly cut off the intelligence from the land route, the intelligence about the empire has come to a standstill, but Feize is not worried. Fezer's troops on the Putian side have withdrawn into the country. Even if the empire wants to do something, there is no way for the time being.

"The fleet's combat vanguard entered the Feize Sea ahead one day ago. According to intelligence, the Feize Navy is currently undergoing repairs at Lousu Port. Due to the confusion tactics used some time ago, the other party has always believed that our fleet is going to enter the Feize Sea. It must be from Paput's side that he would not have thought that after the fleet was renovated, it would go around the outer sea and plunge directly into the Feize Sea."

"Port Lousu? Is that the maritime stronghold that Feize spent a lot of effort to establish in the first half of the year?"

The fat man asked the guard to bring a map of the sea area, and with Dustelenko's pointing out, he found a slightly concave arc on the coast of Feize. From the topography point of view, the location of the entire Lousu Port was quite good.

The fat man looked away from the map and raised his head to look at Dustronkai on the opposite side. "The terrain of the sea area here is narrow, which is not conducive to the rapid deployment of the fleet. Even if there is a sudden attack, it will not be so easy to defeat the opponent's fleet." , what are you going to do? Who will be the commander of the former fleet?

Dostronkai said with a respectful look, "The commander of the forward fleet is Sieffenger."

"Sieffinger? You mean to lure the other party out!" The fat man narrowed his eyes into a line and landed on the chart on the deck. Sieffinger was an outstanding squadron commander of the Imperial Navy. When the Imperial Navy entered The Obarro Sea once had a fierce battle with the Gallic navy. As a ship, Scheffinger The commander of the fleet once had a tragic situation where the fleet was almost completely wiped out. When it comes to pretending to be defeated, Si Aifenger was the only one in the entire empire fleet who had personal experience. So when I heard Dustrunkai say that the former commander was Si Aifenger. Finger, coupled with the terrain being so unfavorable for a surprise attack, naturally came up with such an idea.

"Your Majesty is really a sharp eye."

Dostronkai looked horrified. Unexpectedly, he just reported the name of Commander Qian Rui, and the master saw through the plan at a glance, and quickly said, "The Navy Department did plan this. The Fezer Navy would not have thought that the Imperial Fleet would appear here." , if the fleet that appears is powerful, the Fezer Navy will definitely not dare to come out, but if the Fezer Navy that appears is just a lost imperial small fleet, that is another matter, the Fezer Navy will definitely come out. "

"Where is the final battle location?" Fatty asked with a calm expression.

"The island of Karulas, thirty miles away from the port of Lousu, is large enough to block an ambush fleet." When it comes to naval battles, Dostelenko is definitely experienced, and he is already proficient in the application of naval strategy. , the outstanding command of several decisive battles at sea, has established considerable confidence and determination. This detour of the Imperial Navy is based on the bloody battle of the Imperial Army for nearly half a year. Since the Army Feize's army has been crucified. If the entire battle falls short due to the Navy's fault, even Navy Minister Dostronkai will be under considerable pressure. What's more, this time the emperor is personally in charge of the Navy. My nerves were all tense. As for how to lure and how to encircle and annihilate, the Admiralty Department had already practiced it hundreds of times on the simulated sea sand table. Now when I say it, it’s really all done in one go.

"Well, that's it. I'll be here waiting for news of the navy's victory."

The fat man nodded and looked at the sea in the distance with his eyes as deep as an eagle, as if he wanted to see clearly Feize's land across the ocean. He has nailed all of Feize's troops, and now the most fatal blow is left to you. Just defeat this guy who controls South Europe Barrow The overlord of the west coast, the empire's power can legitimately enter the southern European Barro. As a monarch, it is better to leave it directly to experienced people in a field that is not very familiar with the navy. He can see that Dustrunkai is in his own hands. A little reserved in front of me

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Navy will definitely open this gap for Your Majesty!" Dostelenko bowed respectfully and left. His Majesty Falcon's aura was so powerful that he didn't dare to look at him directly.
