On the high seas.
Not even a few white clouds could be seen in the blue sky. The dazzling sun shone down, and the sea was as clear as the sky. The visibility was excellent.
A huge steam fleet with many ferocious cannons, like a group of hedgehogs, advanced at an extremely high speed.
"According to the plan, we will arrive at the Alliven military port by tonight at the latest, and officially participate in the attack on the rebel army's hinterland!"
In the reception room of the largest flagship, the admiral was having lunch with a group of subordinates.
The imperial military system was strict. Those who could eat with him were at least Rear Admiral rank, and the buttons and badges on their clothes were shining.
Under the bright lights, the tablecloth was white and neat, and the exquisite ceramic cutlery had a smooth and delicate luster. The wine in the glass rippled with intoxicating swirls, and the steak and fried lamb exuded a tempting aroma.
Behind the seat of each general, there was an orderly in a waiter's uniform, with a white towel hanging on his hand, ready to serve the officers at any time.
"On the land side, Duke Black Rose is one of the few generals in the empire who always wins, and with the support of the Iron Eagle Fortress, Chevrolet will definitely not be able to break through immediately. This is our chance!"
The admiral raised his glass. "For the empire! Cheers! "
"For the empire!"
Many officers of the imperial navy toasted one after another.
In fact, the admiral's idea was not wrong. The navy was a military that had extremely high requirements for technology and industrial strength. From the construction of a warship to the launching into the sea, it was a huge test of the country's industrial ability. With the current foundation of the rebel army, they might not even be able to repair the captured warships!
The current sea was still the era of cannons and giant warships. Against the attacks of these mobile fortresses, no conspiracy or trick would work.
The admiral had no doubt about this.
However, what he did not know was that after the creation of God's Space, the number and quality of Transcendents in this world were increasing rapidly.
And the changes brought by this had already deeply affected the world, including the form of war!
Now, the still ignorant imperial high seas fleet, as well as himself, would become the first sacrifice of ignorance!
Whoosh!
There was a sudden change in the originally boundless clear sky.
Dark clouds gathered, and one could vaguely see lightning snakes dancing within them. The darkness rapidly expanded, and not long after, it dyed the entire sky. The sea roared, suffused with a pitch-black muddy color, as if it had turned into a monster with its mouth wide open.
Crack!
A bolt of lightning struck down, followed by a violent storm.
The waves roared and shook violently, causing a porcelain plate on the dining table to fall to the ground with a crisp sound.
"What happened?"
The Admiral was shocked and angry.
"Sir Commander, a thundercloud has suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea. There may be a storm!"
A messenger came in and reported in a panic.
"Damn it … Those lookouts and meteorologists should be sent to the military court for trial!"
The Admiral grabbed his cloak and quickly walked out of the banquet hall to the deck.
Whoosh!
In the midst of the storm, he and his subordinates were immediately drenched.
"Even though it's normal for the sea to be moody, it changes so quickly …"
The admiral roared, "Send out the signal, order all ships to slow down, all ships to maintain distance!"
Whoosh!
The next moment, a monstrous wave hit, causing the entire warship to shake violently. A few navy soldiers screamed as they were directly thrown into the sea, swallowed without even making a splash.
Under such circumstances, those who fell into the sea had no chance of survival.
"Reporting! We've lost contact with the Hill Maiden! "
"Reporting! The cabin of the Seaman is damaged, water leakage is severe! "
"Reporting! The boiler of the Empress has malfunctioned, confirmed to be falling behind, Captain Doak requesting support! "
…
Bad news came one after another, causing the Admiral to fall into great pain. "Even the Empress …"
This was one of his main forces, prepared to shine in the war to suppress the rebellion, but who knew that they didn't even get to see the enemy. After this storm, even if it didn't sink, it would probably be sent to the factory for major repairs.
"Oh god … Could it be that the empire's martial arts fate is really with the enemy?"
The Admiral murmured, a strong sense of foreboding suddenly gripped his entire heart.
After a few hours, the storm finally dissipated gradually.
The losses reported by the fleet one after another made him almost vomit blood.
They hadn't even seen any enemy, but the fleet had lost nearly 30% of its members because of a strange storm, and many ships still needed major repairs!
"Damn it! Damn it! "
After hearing the specific report, the poor Admiral even had the thought of hanging himself.
However, today was destined to be his disaster day.
"Enemy detected ahead!"
Before he could recover from the grief of the losses, a hurried voice resounded through the entire command room.
"What?"
The Admiral hurriedly ran to the watchtower, and immediately saw the thick black smoke column where the sea and sky met.
He grabbed the binoculars and carefully observed the opposite side.
This unfamiliar navy looked very shabby, be it in terms of tonnage or firepower, and they were even flying the flag of the rebel army, aggressively charging towards him.
If the fleet on this side was intact, even if they only had half the tonnage, the Admiral would not be afraid to have a naval battle with the enemy.
But now, looking at the enemy's intact hull, and then comparing it to the damaged ships on his side, the Admiral clutched his chest in pain, and finally gave the order, "We … retreat!"
He knew that this would definitely turn into a crushing defeat, and those ships with problems with their power systems would definitely become the enemy's live targets.
But in order to preserve the last bit of vitality of the empire's navy, he had to do this.
After all, if they really fought, it was very likely that the entire fleet would be wiped out.
"We must bring this important information back! It's very likely that the rebel army has mastered the power of the weather! "
The Admiral slammed his palm on the railing so hard that it almost oozed blood. "Before we obtain enough information and the strength to resist, we can't start a naval battle so easily!"
This time, the tsunami and the storm came too suddenly.
Moreover, his side had suffered heavy losses, but the enemy's fleet was intact, and they even accurately seized the opportunity to attack. This situation was a huge problem no matter how one looked at it.
Rumble! Rumble!
The imperial fleet began to change direction, and the boilers boiled, emitting thick black smoke as they quickly fled the battlefield.
The fleet at the back caught up like a pack of wolves, surrounding the ships that had lost power and were slowly sinking, and began a one-sided massacre …
The cannons rumbled, but on the flagship of the Revolutionary Army, the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
"Posse, did you hear that? This is our victory cheer! "
A Admiral's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the person in front of him.
The person's body was dry, and his limbs were like reeds. His ribs were protruding, his hair was white, and his face was sunken. However, his face still looked like that of a young man.
He was Posse, the strongest Reincarnator under Chevrolet, and he had the ability to control storms.
In order to set off a huge storm this time, he had also gone all out and was extremely exhausted. In addition, this instrument was an experimental product after all, and it was very harmful to the user's health. Finally, it made him look like this, and he almost died.
This was not only a serious injury, but also damage to the source of his life. Even if he entered the Creator Space, he would not be able to recover without spending an astronomical number of contribution points.
"Victory … Our cause will eventually be victorious!"
Posse murmured, and his eyes shone with a fervent light.
Although he was a Reincarnator who had experienced many battles, he was also a citizen of the Empire. He had the deepest love for this country, and he sincerely hoped that the whole country could walk on the right path. For this, he did not hesitate to give up everything he had!
…
Just as the Empire's High Seas Fleet was almost completely annihilated, at the Iron Eagle Fortress.
At this time, the fortress was almost in ruins. A large number of Revolutionary Army cheered as they directly climbed over the gaps in the steel walls and even the ruins, and occupied the entire city.
The defending troops in the fortress came out one after another to surrender, and were driven to the side to squat down with their heads hung low.
The entire fortress was in a state of devastation. Not only the defense line, but even the ordinary residential areas had collapsed houses, and the ground was cracked. It looked like there were victims everywhere.
Today, when the sun had just risen, a sudden earthquake suddenly struck this place.
Not only did it destroy the entire defense line, but it also made all the defending troops almost lose their fighting spirit.
After all, anyone who saw that the earthquake only struck the fortress, but the enemy's camp was still intact would think that it was a divine punishment.
The culprit of all this was naturally Chevrolet.
At this time, he was helped down from the metal throne by the female colonel. His face was pale, and he seemed to have been sucked dry.
"Damn it, Siti, there's definitely something wrong with this thing you designed. I was almost sucked dry by it!"
Chevrolet grumbled.
"But the effect is really good, isn't it?"
Dr. Siti quickly recorded the data. "As expected of the leader, he's much stronger than Posse … I think he'll be crippled even if he doesn't die this time …"
"What?"
Chevrolet grabbed Dr. Siti's collar. "Such a serious side effect, and you actually didn't tell us beforehand?"
"This … because there was no real test subject, it was hard for me to make an estimate …"
Dr. Siti's face showed a hint of awkwardness. "Fortunately, the results were good. I just received news from the fleet that we won!"
"Finally, there's good news!"
Chevrolet forced himself to stand straight and looked at the fortress in front of him. "Now, it's ours!"
