Speaking of the remnants of the Ansmara Republic, one has to talk about the large number of colonies on the Zane continent. After the mainland fell, the Ansmara people who remained in the colony continued to hold high the banner of resistance, on the coast of the colony. A large number of fortresses are built on the side, and the movement from the sea is constantly monitored.

At the same time, they also actively expanded their army, mobilized the Ansmara immigrants in the colony to join the army, and with the wealth accumulated over the years, they went south to hire the indigenous tribes of Zane and let them join the war against the Holy Roman Empire.

They thought that the army of the Holy Roman Empire would soon cross the ocean and reach the continent of Zane, but they did not expect that they would go to war with the Kingdom of Burgundia and the Holy Kuyavian Empire at the same time, postponing the plan of the expedition indefinitely. . Benefiting from this, the governors of several colonies took the opportunity to unite to form a new republican regime, expand the scale of fortifications in the colony, and build more warships.

Speaking of, before the outbreak of the local war, the Republican Assembly ordered the main fleet to take a large amount of treasure and supplies to go south with some nobles to take refuge in the Zane colony, so the naval power of the Republic of Ansmara was not compromised. , And after converging with the colonial navy, the entire Republic’s fleet has more than 230 warships. These warships are not ordinary boats, but large ships with ocean-going capabilities. Each ship is full of two hundred armed sailors. A giant crossbow or catapult is deployed at the stern, and they can walk sideways in the sea of ​​shining.

The commander-in-chief of the navy who holds such a powerful combat force has also become the minister of the navy of the new republic. As long as he pushes three pedals **** the ground, the whole country will tremble as a result. This shows how great his power is. No wonder, because he holds the main fleet of the Republic and also shoulders the responsibility of resisting the expeditionary forces of the Holy Roman Empire. Every noble of the Republic who fled here knows that as long as he can defeat the fleet of the Holy Roman Empire on the ocean, he will be firmly If you hold the dominance of the sea, then this new republic will be able to live steadily.

But how can Richard make them get what they want?

After all the three legions that attacked the Kuyavian Empire were withdrawn, Richard put the expedition to Zane again on the agenda. While fighting with the Kuyawi coalition forces, the navy in the rear was not doing nothing. They sent a large amount of supplies to Port Bell, and also drove a large number of transport ships there. After the war is over, everything is prepared here. It's all coming to an end. As long as the expeditionary soldiers assemble, the first fleet led by the admiral Sigurd will be able to **** the first expeditionary force to the start.

The expedition to the Zane continent is actually not the only reason for destroying the remnants of the Ansmara Republic, Richard also took a fancy to the richness of that continent. The continent of Zane is rich in materials and has all kinds of rare treasures. The continent is like Africa on the earth. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as gold everywhere. In addition to the dark-skinned indigenous people, there are various Kind of animals that the Vadasians have never seen, including huge elephants, rhinos with one horns, and many peculiar species that are not found on earth.

This is a continent full of wealth. This is what Richard thinks. The Ansmara people also agreed with this sentence a long time ago and took action for it. They sent a large number of people to travel across the ocean by boat to reach such a wealthy place. With the continent of opportunity, under the threat of the indigenous people, they built one after another colony. They also used their natural trading ability to trade with the indigenous tribes they contacted, and exchanged things that the indigenous people had never seen in exchange for the gold they regarded as dung. Diamonds and ivory. That is to say, relying on the luxury goods obtained from the mainland of Zane, the Ansmara Republic has become stronger and stronger, becoming the richest power in the entire Valdasia Peninsula.

Keke, it's far away.

His Majesty Richard Stuart, who was still in Snowmar, the capital of the New Burgundian Kingdom, remotely controlled the upcoming expedition to Zane. Before the expedition began, he first delineated three legions. ’S resident. Needless to say, the First Army continued to be stationed in the original Winster area. The Second Army was deployed to the newly conquered Ansmara area—the Burgundian area to stabilize the people’s minds. The Third Army was deployed. In the northeast of the Valdasia Peninsula, a large number of fortresses were built on the border with the barbarian-occupied area to prevent the barbarians from going south.

Both legions have the responsibility of defending the border, so the task of expedition is naturally given to Richard’s beloved First Army. In order to prevent any accidents, he left the First Army and the First Brigade to stay on the mainland. The two brigades under it were all included in the expeditionary force. Considering that the third brigade commander Trond Olsen has a higher title than the second brigade commander Eisner Riddle, Richard appointed Trond as the army commander of the expeditionary force and escorted the transportation. Sigurd of the ship is the commander-in-chief of the navy.

I forgot to say that after the collapse of the Second Brigade, Richard re-organized the Second Brigade, with the shame of his predecessor. These supplemented soldiers have vowed to achieve greater achievements and wash away the shame that shrouded this designation. , And Eisner Riddle, who was parachuted from the Staff Headquarters of the First Army to the position of brigade commander of the Second Brigade, had the same ideas as the soldiers.

The expedition against the Zane continent did not start soon, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com Richard generously gave every soldier who participated in the war a holiday of more than one month. Waiting until August 1st, the fully rested First Army officers and soldiers gathered in Port Bell with high morale. Chad’s Lair, the port across the sea, stepped onto the transport ship in an orderly manner.

Because of the high discipline of the army, the boarding of the ship was completed in less than half a day, and Sigurd, who had long been canonized as a lord, ordered the departure. Their fleet first circumvented the island of Kuban for half a circle before heading south. For Richard’s "Land of Longxing", the soldiers have a deep yearning for it. Although they have not been able to officially land on the island, being able to stand on the deck and look at the prosperous island is enough for every soldier Cheers for this.

…

Sigurd and his fleet will first go to the isolated island of Riyadh in the sea to supply supplies, and then continue south to join the navy of the Kingdom of Falnik, an old ally of the empire. After hearing that Richard is going to expedition to the continent of Zane , King Anders of the Kingdom of Falnik offered a response without hesitation. He proposed to Richard that the Falnik Navy should assist in the operation, and he received a very straightforward agreement.

As an island country, the Kingdom of Falnik is not weak in naval power. The fleet sent to merge with Sigurd has fifty warships, which is almost half of the entire country. In contrast, Sigu The First Fleet of the Empire under Erd's command also happened to have only one hundred Hawke gunships.
