Chapter 198 Landing

Because the Marines of Rome Island wanted to attack the Port of Dante in the Principality of Lomek, the Second Fleet and the Transport Fleet chose a longer route to Port Dante.

Shawn's fleet escorted the captured enemy ships back to Rome Yongan military port, so it did not stay on this route.

In this way, both Rohmer's main fleets missed the four-nation coalition on the main route from Dante.

More than 300 sailboats went to sea at the same time, stretching for several miles, which was spectacular. General Meloa stood on the fleet flagship Flying and quietly looked at the sea in the distance.

"What are you thinking about? General Meloa." General Duke came up from behind him and asked with a smile.

"According to the original agreement, General Gordon's naval ship should be near here to make peace with us, right?" General Meloa did not answer the question, but asked.

"Yes, the sea we just passed is the agreed meeting and place." General Duke said.

"So, our forward navy is more or less auspicious, right? General Duke. General Meloa looked at Duke and asked.

Before General Duke could answer, a watchman in the distance shouted to Duke, "General Duke, look at the port side!" There are a lot of debris and debris on the port side of the sea!"

The two generals quickly ran to the port side and saw the broken wood almost covering the sea, the empty lifeboat and sampan, the mast floating on the surface of the water, and many soaked white and swollen corpses.

These poor corpses reminded the people of the whole fleet that their forward fleet no longer existed and the end was quite tragic.

"Don't be sentimental for these! The fleet keeps moving forward! We will avenge our dead comrades!" General Meloa ordered loudly.

The way to save morale seems to have worked. The fleet has continued to march towards Romem Island without stopping. Now the soldiers on the ship want to return to land quickly so that they can give full play to their numerical advantage.

Soon, this unprecedented fleet in human history approached the waters of Rome Island.

However, none of them found that in the distant sky, a small white dot quietly disappeared. It was a reconnaissance hot air balloon sent by the Rome Island air reconnaissance force.

The main position of Lomec and other national navies has been confirmed, and the defense work of Rome Island has also begun to be arranged. This is a very exciting moment for the Rome Island army.

On some cliffs on both sides of Jianye Port, the seemingly huge rocks slowly rotated, revealing the ferocious gun barrel.

Several stones on some sealed cliffs were pushed out and fell into the sea, and then the same muzzle extended into the distance, pointing to the sea level in the distance.

The soldiers have carried the crossbows to the position, shelters made of sandbags and shields, and dense barbed wire to make the whole beach look like a trench area of World War I.

The temporarily arranged artillery positions have also begun to adjust the angle, and the third division of Rome Island is ready to repel the invading enemy.

In view of the news brought back by the reconnaissance force, Arcado canceled the landing mission of the 1st Division of Rome Island, and instead took the newly running rail train to the whole army to the center of Rome Island and was ready to reinforce various locations on Rome Island at any time.

Sean's naval fleet and the standing fleet in Yong'an Port are hurrying to make pre-war supplies. They received orders to completely destroy the enemy's maritime forces and trap all the invading enemy land forces.

The hot air balloon bombers, which appeared as another secret weapon, rose high into the clouds with their own equipment.

The crossbow shot from that height can definitely destroy any armor and shield, which is almost irresistible. Unless the enemy is carrying the gate on its head, it will definitely die if it is hit.

When the troops on Rome Island were ready, the Lomec coalition appeared on the sea level.

"The whole army boarded the ssam and boat! Let's rush to the beach!" The vanguard general shouted, and all the ships began to put down their boats and ssams. The dense soldiers rushed up to these boats, stretched out their long oars, and rowed hard to the beach not far away.

The crossbow guns on the warship began to shoot at the port of Jianye Port and destroyed some port facilities, but the whole Rome Island still did not start to fight back. The atmosphere was very strange.

"They actually made our leading troops rush to the beach. Didn't Rome Island even install a crossbow gun for coastal defense? This is impossible. They still designed the crossbows on our ship. Duke looked at the forward troops who had rushed to the beach and asked in surprise.

"There is something wrong with this. I don't say there is something wrong, but there must be something wrong." The cautious General Meloa said.

"You must land before the arrival of the Romai navy. Judging from yesterday's wreckage, the strength of the Romai navy is not weak, and we can't guarantee your safety before landing." General Duke said.

Meloa had to put down the ominous foreboding in his heart and gave the order: "The main force will transfer to the boat and land!"

With an order, countless soldiers climbed along the laid rope net to their boat. They were going to land and then capture Jianye Port.

The troops that landed first have formed a formation. They staggered on the golden beach, with some seawater left in their hard leather boots, and now they are filled with sand.

Just when everyone was not paying attention, in the quiet sky, the clouds of white clouds, 200 hot air balloons have quietly floated to the battlefield.

Suddenly, an order came from Rome's position: "Fire!" The crossbows rushed to the four-nation coalition forces on the beach like raindrops.

The armies of Lomec and other countries on the beach also began to fight back with crossbows, but unfortunately, because it was shot at elevation and there was no long range of Romeck's steel crossbow, it could not pose a threat to the army on Rome Island.

The slowly advancing infantry phalanx was suddenly attacked by a very fierce arrow rain. This time, the arrow rain actually broke through the shield, tore the iron helmet, and then deeply sank into the sand under its feet. Obviously, this is a more powerful crossbow.

Although casualties began to appear and were suppressed by Romer's arrow rain, it was similar to what was expected, so there was no panic.

General Meloa, who began to fight back from Rome Island, was gently relieved. He had always felt something wrong, and finally affirmed one thing, that is, it seemed that the defense of Rome Island was not as perfect as he thought.

Soon, Meloa loved that the 70,000 follow-up troops led by the army also landed on the beach and began to move forward slowly. As soon as Duke, the relieved admiral, was relieved, he heard a frightened cry: "Romai! Rom's Navy!"
