"Report!"

"Come in!" The Xiyi-style wooden door was opened, and Tanegashima Kuniken, the captain of the Xiyi Second Fleet in samurai armor, walked into the command room of the new Japan Marunouchi with the post-war statistical battle report of the naval battle in the South China Sea, and it was also the office of the captain of the Xiyi First Fleet who also served as the prince of the sunset, Maori Motosho, and at this time, the patriarch of the Maori family to which Tanegashima Kunijian belonged, was deducing the power pattern of the current king of the Great Southern Continent on the sand table.

"Guojian, read the statistics and listen to it."

"Yes, Lord Maori." As he spoke, Tanegashima Kuniken took out the statistical table from the sealed paper bag and read: "This time, we dispatched a total of 60 thousand fire ships, 50 Ataku ships, 30 Daan Otaku ships, 1 Nippon Maru and 140 official house ships, a total of 281 warships, after the battle with the orc fleet, our side can still move on the surface of the water, including a total of 146 warships that can move for at least one month, including 3 thousand fire ships, 34 ships, 19 Daan otaku ships, 1 Nippon Maru and 98 official house ships. As for crew losses, we lost more than 6,000 casualties, including 2,112 Silver Rank sailors. ”

"It's a big loss!" Mao Liyuan got up and sighed after being immersed for a while, and then asked Tanegashima Kunijian: "Guojian, according to your opinion, do you think it is possible for our Xiyi fleet to capture the two important ports of the Orc South China Sea, Port Baber and Port Eni?" ”

"Lord Maori, with all due respect, although it seems that we still have nearly half of our strength in terms of sailors and warships, we can't find a single arrow or gravel on any of our warships, and nearly half of the warships we have survived have broken hulls and collapsed decks, and the surviving Xiyi warriors are not only physically and mentally exhausted but also wounded, and it is impossible for us to capture Port Barber or Port Eni."

"And even if our rear transport fleet can deliver the baggage and medicine to the soldiers in time, and our warships can still have the ability to continue sailing, but I also think that with the number of warships we have now, it is already very far-fetched to capture a port of Barber, and it is completely impossible to have the ability to capture Port Eni again, so I think that even if it is possible for us now, it is not worth trying, because this is a risk of the destruction of our Xiyi fleet, and in our current situation, we ....... not afford to gamble."

"Yes, but we're going to get our ships to the port of Barber anyway." Mao Liyuan thought for a while and said, "Guojian, do you have any information on the remaining naval strength of the Crescent Empire's warships?" ”

Although he was skeptical of Mori Moto's statement, Tanegashima Kuniken still looked through the battle report statistics table in his hand for a while, and replied to Mori Moto: "Yes, Mori-sama, according to the data on the battle report statistics table, after the battle of the Crescent Moon side, there were 14 crescent moon warships, 23 full moon warships and 56 Parker warships, and the number of sailors they survived could also drive these warships, of course, this is to remove the 21 warships that they retained, which are already severely damaged. Even after the battleship where moving back was a problem. ”

"It should be enough." Mao Liyuan muttered, then raised his head and gave an order to Tanegashima Kunijian with a serious face: "Kunijian, I want you to go now, pass my words to those crescent sailors, and tell them that if they want to take advantage of the orc army's army to react this time, they will destroy Port Barber and Port Eni in one go, in addition to obeying my command, the most important thing is that they must abandon those 21 ships, because it will become a variable, It is highly likely that we will not be able to complete the task of capturing Port Barber and Port Eni this time. ”

"Yes!" Xiyi's family system makes subordinates generally extremely loyal to their superiors, and they will not let them question their bosses' choices, so Tanegashima Kuniken left the command room after the street order, and as the person who gave the order, Mao Li Yuan also began to deal with the trivial matters of the next step, such as asking the herald to convey the next direction of action of his warship to the captains of the fleet, and for example, to write a letter to the elf king and human king of the Crescent Moon Empire, while explaining the naval battle in the South China Sea, asking him to prepare supplies, And send a transport fleet to transport these materials to their side in a timely manner. And when these things are dealt with, Tanegashima Kuniken, who left before, has also returned.

"Lord Maori, the warships of the Crescent have begun to carry out the decision you have made, they have already scuttled the bottoms of those 21 warships, and are now leading the rest of the warships to move closer to our warships, and ask for instructions on what to do next."

"All ready? It seems that several commanders on the other side of the crescent moon are also the ones who should be judged. Mao Liyuan sighed slightly and then said to Tanegashima Kuniken: "You go and tell them that today's risk and the wind has changed from the south wind in the previous two days to the direction of the wind blowing from the southwest to the northeast, this is a good time for us to rush to Barber Harbor, they should know that in terms of movement, in this situation, the movement speed of our Xiyi warships will definitely not be as fast as their warships, so I ask them to immediately raise their full sails and move towards Barber Harbor, where to support our naval forces where the sun never sets, Of course, I know that there is a shortage of arrows now. Javelins and stuff, so I just need them to block the port of Barber, anyway, now that the orc fleet has been wiped out, the coastal areas of the Orc Empire have all been exposed to the naval vision of our Sunset Empire and Crescent Empire. ”

"Naval forces? Lord Maori, when are we going to have another navy? I remember that the only people who saw the Battle of the South China Sea and the Battle of the Oakland River this time were our two fleets of Xiyi, the King's Inland Sea Expeditionary Fleet and the 1st and 2nd Naga Foreign Legions? Could it be that Soli's Western Sea Fleet is also coming? ”

"No, Soli's Western Sea Fleet is still exploring and scouting the uninhabited islands that are very valuable in the western part of the sea area of the Thousand Islands." Mao Liyuan shook his head and said, "I'm talking about the 3rd, 4th, and 5th foreign legions of the Naga. ”

"What!" Tanegashima Kuniken exclaimed, "Why do we have 3 more Naga Foreign Legions before the sun sets?" ”

"It is said that it is the reserve army prepared by Sun Lin Mian for this march into the King's Inland Sea." Mao Liyuan said with a smile: "Actually, these three foreign legions arrived in the southern continent with the expeditionary fleet, but because the sun never sets and the Crescent Empire officially signed a military alliance, after the Crescent Empire proposed to enter the Orc Empire, these three originally hidden Sea Clan legions returned to the South China Sea and became the troops of our coalition to capture Port Baber and Eni." ”
