"Is it as smooth as you said? Why do I feel like you have more confidence than me?"
"Isn't this a normal thing? Confidence comes from strength, and my strength is strong enough."
Talullah did not refute. After knowing the power of the weapons in the fleet, Talullah realized that this fleet was indeed strong enough. With the advanced weapons in it, Talullah felt that she would not be afraid even if she faced several dukes at the same time.
The only pity is that there are not many advanced weapons in the fleet. If there are enough, it would not be a problem to defeat Victoria.
Unfortunately, those weapons are too expensive. It is not a problem to make a few for use, but mass production is impossible.
When Tallulah was thinking about how to fight the Duke's fleet, Su Xing's voice rang in her ears: "Return to God, there is a fleet ahead."
After hearing this, Tallulah stopped thinking and looked forward.
I saw a fleet fighting with the Sarkaz in the distance. As they got closer, the rumbling sound of artillery fire was deafening.
Chapter 206 Battle
The warring parties also discovered the fleet approaching not far away. The officers in Victoria's fleet looked at the fleet, wondering in their minds whether it was reinforcements sent by the Duke?
However, the officer's face turned ugly when he saw the flag above the fleet that did not belong to any duke.
You know, each grand duke of Victoria has a different flag. The flag on the fleet in front of him does not belong to any duke he has ever seen. In addition, there has been a lot of news about Draco in Londinium recently. The officer suspected that this fleet might belong to that Draco.
Thinking of this, the officer ordered the fleet to always pay attention to the movements of the fleet in front of them. Although Draco was on Victoria's side, the fleet behind her was not necessarily the same?
The man who married this Drake was the newly rising Marshal of the Liberation Army of Ursus. How could he help Drake for no reason? Even if this Drake was his wife, it would be the same.
Moreover, there was no news about these two people before. It was as if they met suddenly and got married soon after.
He would never believe that there was no trick involved. It was very likely that Draco was just a pawn, and the marshal just wanted to use her identity to plot against Victoria.
As an officer, he knows politics very well. In order to get his hands on the huge pie of Victoria, let alone getting married, it is possible that he would even recognize Draco as his mother.
Because there are not too many nobles in Victoria who do this. If you look back at Victoria's history, you can always find people who did all kinds of stupid things for the throne.
Therefore, the officer was wary of the sudden appearance of the fleet. What's more, he was a subordinate of the Duke of Wellington. In his eyes, neither Draco nor Aslan were qualified to occupy Victoria. Only the Duke of Wellington could make Victoria great again.
As for the Sarkaz who were fighting with the officers, they did not show any fear towards the newly appeared fleet. Instead, they looked eager to try.
As the blood demons and scavengers in the Royal Court Army, these two teams are very enthusiastic about war. No matter who is blocking the way ahead, it is impossible to stop them from waging war.
After seeing the newly appeared fleet, the Blood Demon Army and the Scavenger Army directly separated a part of their forces and rushed towards the fleet next to them.
Su Xing was speechless when he saw the Blood Demon Army and the Scavenger Army rushing towards the fleet. He even wondered if these Sarkaz were brainwashed by the war?
You beat anyone you see without even considering who they are?
Su Xing looked at Tallulah and said, "Go and deal with these Sarkaz. It's a good opportunity to show these Victorians the power of Drake."
Talulah didn't say much and led the People's Liberation Army to meet the oncoming Sarkaz.
Su Xing stood on the deck and watched the battle between the two sides. Although Tallulah's command ability was not strong, it had improved a lot after Black Snake's teaching during this period. In addition, the People's Liberation Army was strong enough, so Tallulah did not need to worry about their safety.
As soon as the two sides started fighting, the PLA let the attacking Sarkaz experience the power of a gun. From a few hundred meters away, the PLA used guns to fire at the Sarkaz.
Neither the Blood Demon nor the Scavenger can fight back against this kind of firearm. Even the thick-skinned Sarkaz are still no different from crispy skin under the etched bullets.
Some of the tall and strong Sarkaz were taught a lesson by sniper rifles. The Sarkaz lost a lot of people just after the two sides started fighting.
The Blood Demon and the Scavenger who led the command had not yet reacted to what was going on, and their troops had suffered heavy losses.
After they came to their senses and ordered their enemies to evade, they discovered that guns were completely unreasonable.
If you encounter a gun without cover, not many people can survive the gunshot unless they are lucky. The power of the etched bullet is not exaggerated. Even the thick-skinned Sarkaz cannot withstand it.
However, these bullets are used to deal with the stronger Sarkaz. Ordinary blood demons and scavengers can be dealt with by ordinary bullets. After all, although Sarkaz have more martial virtues, their bodies are still flesh and blood, and they can only suffer in the face of bullets.
By the time the commander realized something was wrong and ordered the Sarkaz to withdraw, their army had lost more than one-third of its losses.
Talulah found the Sarkaz who was in charge of commanding the scene, and swung the sword in her hand, and flames shot up into the sky. The entire battlefield was burning under her flames. For the first time, the fire belonging to Draco was shown to the soldiers on both sides.
The Sarkaz didn't know much about fire, but Tallulah's power still made them alert.
As for Victoria's people, some soldiers with more experience quickly recognized Draco's flames.
You know, according to Victoria's records, the flames of the red dragon can burn mountains. The fire that Tallulah cast before them made these soldiers understand for the first time how powerful the legendary Draco is.
The officer looked at his soldiers with a worried look in his eyes. The appearance of the red dragon was not a good thing, especially when the red dragon itself was strong enough.
Although defeating the Sarkaz is a good thing, it is not good for the Duke.
The Sarkaz officers retreated immediately after seeing that something was wrong. If they continued, they would be annihilated here.
After the Sarkaz left, the Duke's fleet confronted Tallulah.
In the officers' view, it would be a great achievement if they could capture the red dragon.
However, reason prevented the officer from taking action, as he only had small warships under his command, and there were only a few of them.
The enemy has more than a dozen warships, and many of them are large warships. This number is almost the same as the one the Duke has. If they fight, he will definitely be defeated.
Because of the huge gap in strength between the two sides, the officer did not take action, but just stared at Tallulah intently, fearing that she would attack.
Tallulah paid no attention and counted the casualties.
There was not much casualty on the PLA side. Apart from a few injuries, there was no other loss.
You have to know that the power of firearms is that they can cause casualties without close combat, and every PLA soldier is fully armed. As long as they don't encounter too powerful enemies or have really bad luck, casualties are rare.
Tallulah looked at the soldiers not far away and said, “I am Tallulah Arterias, the daughter of the Red Dragon Edward Arterias.
Victoria has lost its former glory. The purpose of my return is to drive out the Sarkaz, inherit Victoria's throne, and restore Victoria to its former glory.
All Victorian soldiers, if you still have Victoria in your heart, then join me, drive away the Sarkaz, and liberate Londinium as soon as possible."
Chapter 207 Report
After saying this, Tallulah looked at the army in the distance, wondering what choice they would make?
Some of the soldiers were still very tempted by Tallulah's words. After all, the person in front of them was Draco. If they joined her, they would be able to become her loyal subjects when she inherited Victoria's throne.
They were all low-level soldiers and had a pretty good idea of what the Duke was thinking.
But I don’t know the details? And the Duke was interested in Victoria’s throne because none of Victoria’s royal bloodline appeared. The Duke wanted to rule Victoria in order to prevent Victoria from continuing to be in chaos.
As for the Duke becoming emperor himself, many soldiers had never thought about it. They thought that what the Duke wanted to do was probably similar to that of a regent, just taking over Victoria temporarily and returning the throne once a royal bloodline was found.
Some smart soldiers guessed the Duke's thoughts, but they did not say it out loud. How could a low-level soldier like them have any say in such matters?
They dared not guess what the Duke was thinking, for fear that they would be killed if they were not careful.
Seeing his soldiers' excited expressions, the officer began to get anxious. Although he knew the Duke's purpose, many of the soldiers at the lower levels still did not understand. If the Duke showed any desire for Victoria's throne, wouldn't that be a sign of rebellion?
How could the Duke let anyone know about this? Even if some soldiers guessed it, the Duke wouldn't care because they wouldn't tell anyone.
But if most of the soldiers knew about it, even if he was a duke, he would not be able to stop the public opinion.
You have to know that there is more than one duke interested in Victoria's throne. Other dukes are also eyeing that position. Whoever reveals a flaw first will be attacked by everyone. No duke wants to be the first to show up.
"What are you all thinking? Do you believe everything the other party says? You don't even know the other party's identity and purpose? Have you forgotten the Duke's teachings? You should be vigilant when facing such an unknown person."
The officer's words quickly made the excitement in the soldiers' hearts disappear. Just as the officer said, they were soldiers under the Duke, and it was impossible for them to join the other side. You have to know that everything they have is in the Duke's territory, so how could they become the other side's people?
When Tallulah saw the soldier's expression, she knew it was impossible to get the soldier to join her. Since she had failed, Tallulah had no intention of staying any longer.
After bringing the People's Liberation Army back to the ship, Tallulah glanced at the soldiers below and said nothing more, but continued to move towards Londinium.
After the fleet moved away, the officer returned to the ship, asked the soldiers to control the ship to leave, and then came to the department responsible for contact.
He was going to report what happened here to the Duke. Who knew how much of a stir the appearance of a Draco would cause in Victoria?
Moreover, Draco himself is very powerful. Thinking of the flames rising from Draco's body before, the officer couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
Although Victoria's book mentioned the flame of Drake, how could what was said in the book be the same as what you saw with your own eyes? Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you understand why the flame of Drake is described as being able to burn mountains.
When you really face a fire that is like a natural disaster, it is impossible not to be afraid.
After the officer reported the intelligence about his encounter with Draco and the fleet, he didn't intend to care about it anymore. Draco's affairs were not something an ordinary officer like him could interfere with.
In addition to Drake, the fleet should not be underestimated. The officers speculated that the fleet led by Drake should be provided by the marshal of the People's Liberation Army, and he spent a lot of money for Victoria.
Even from his point of view, this fleet is very advanced. In some aspects, even the Duke's fleet cannot match it. From the fleet, we can see the other party's technological level, which is definitely among the best in the world.
While the officer was thinking, the voice of a telegraph machine suddenly rang.
After receiving the signal, the officer asked his men to translate it quickly. When the signal translation was completed, the officer looked at the order on the paper and couldn't help but sigh.
"I didn't expect that the Duke would take this Draco so seriously. It seems that the Duke has made up his mind not to let them enter Londinium."
The officer ordered: "Turn the warship and head towards Londinium."
The soldier next to him asked, "Sir, what are the Duke's orders?"
The officer handed him the paper and said, "Read it yourself."
The soldier took the paper and there was a sentence written on it: "Go and stop this fleet. Don't let them enter Londinium."
After reading the order, the soldier had a strange look on his face: "Sir, that person seems to be the real Draco, do we really have to make her our enemy?"
The officer looked at him and said, "Why? Do you want to disobey orders?"
"I don't dare, but what should I do if the people find out?"
"You don't need to worry about this. We soldiers just need to obey orders."
"Yes."
After the soldiers left, the officer looked in the direction of Londinium: "I hope this chaotic situation can end soon."
............
On the ship, Su Xing looked at Tallulah and asked, "How do you feel about the battle?"
“This army is quite strong, but its equipment is a bit poor, and its weapons don’t seem to be as advanced as I imagined.
I remember Victoria wasn't the most advanced and prosperous nation on Terra? How come the weapons are the same as they were a few years ago? Haven't they improved their weapons?"
"You are talking about Victoria decades ago. The current Victoria is no longer the most advanced country in Terra. The advanced Victoria of the past has long begun to decline.
It’s just that the top leaders still think that Victoria is an advanced country. The fact is that Victoria is already living off its past success. If it weren’t for its strong foundation, Victoria would have long since become a second-rate country.”
"It seems that the situation inside Victoria is not optimistic. Is it a problem with the previous emperor?"
“Although the previous emperors also had some problems, the main reason why Victoria became what she is now is that there is no heir to the throne.
Since the previous emperor was killed, the Grand Duke of Victoria and others had been fighting for the throne for a long time. Finally, these dukes found that no one could do anything to anyone else and compromised. None of them entered Londinium, and let Londinium develop freely.
These dukes returned to their own fiefdoms and continued to plot Victoria's throne in secret."
Su Xing thought about the information he had collected and continued, "It's a pity that these dukes forgot one thing, that is, a country cannot be without a monarch for a day. Without the emperor, Victoria's development quickly stagnated.
In addition, the lack of leadership has led to a power struggle among the top leaders, which has caused chaos among the middle-level leaders in Victoria. As a result, the grassroots have basically come to a standstill. How can the country be good under such circumstances? "
Chapter 208 Treatment
"I see. No wonder Victoria's soldiers use older weapons."
"Don't worry about the Duke's men. Their families are all in the Duke's territory. It's impossible for them to join us. You should win over the civilians in Victoria and the people in the city of Londinium. Don't think about others for now."
"Isn't this a bit too little? I remember Victoria's population was close to 30 million. How come I can attract so few people?"
“We are currently located near Londinium, where the Duke’s power is not as strong as outside.
After the death of the previous emperor, the Duke of Victoria asked other nobles to divide up all the places except Londinium. Now most of Victoria's territory is basically under the rule of the nobles.
In this case, let alone winning over the common people, they may not even know who the emperor is. You have to know that the emperor has been dead for decades, and the throne has been vacant for so long. In this case, how could anyone believe what you said? "
Tallulah's face didn't look very good after hearing this. Obviously Victoria's condition was beyond her imagination. Although she had guessed about Victoria's bad condition, she didn't expect it to be so bad.
If she were alone in this situation, what would she do? Thinking of this, Tallulah was a little relieved that Su Xing was there. If she was alone, even if she had a fleet, the final result might only be failure.
Tallulah knew clearly that she was not suited to playing politics and scheming. The only thing she was good at was fighting. It was okay for her to charge into battle, as she was sure that not many people could be her opponents, but it was not possible for her to play scheming.
Although Black Snake was in her mind, Tallulah didn't want to ask her. Although Black Snake was also a good strategist, Tallulah still despised Black Snake's strategies and didn't want to use that kind of strategy.
Compared to Su Xing's use of ordinary people, infected people and advanced technology to crush the enemy in an open and aboveboard manner, Black Snake's strategy was a bit too low to be considered decent.
In the following time, Tallulah advanced towards Londinium while treating ordinary people and infected people affected by the war on the way.
Because of her experience in Chernobyl, Tallulah has some ideas about how to organize these people. In addition, the Red Snake in her mind was born from the ideas of the People's Liberation Army, so Tallulah knows a lot about how to unite the grassroots people.
Fortunately, the fleet has enough space, otherwise Tallulah wouldn’t know how to arrange the people she rescued?
