Message is just a message, and it will take some time to become a fact.

In Zheng Jiangming's words, the Kingdom of Sban is actually not much better than the Kingdom of Raleigh. The goods along the way will definitely not miss the last chance to squeeze into the chariot of victory. However, I also think about how to get the most benefits for myself, so don't expect too much from the army of Sban.

To be more straightforward, the best result is not to hold back on the Sban Kingdom.

In the end, the Tsuman army probably needs to use the Sban Kingdom and then attack the straight-down fortress under the cover of the Imperial fleet.

In addition, Bai Zhizhan also knew how much Sban Kingdom had.

In a sense, the current Sban Kingdom is actually a vassal state of the Tyman Empire, and is the result of the full support and support of the Tyman Empire.

About ten years ago, a civil war broke out in Sban's country. The current King of Sban was still a general of the Sban's army at that time. He was stationed on the other side of the strait and was responsible for guarding the colonies in the western part of the Beixuan area. He only had a colonial garrison.

With the full support of the Tyman Empire, this general named Franco led a group of mobs back to the country.

After that, it took several years of civil war to defeat the Republican army, which had received support from the Luosha Federation and the Newland Federation, and was under the banner of democracy and freedom.

After winning the Civil War, Franco became king and the Kingdom of Sban was born.

During this civil war that lasted for several years, the Torman Empire not only contributed money and efforts to provide Franco with equipment and supplies, but also sent troops to directly participate in the war in the name of consultants.

According to statistics from the Tyman Empire, about 50,000 Tyman soldiers died in the Sban Kingdom.

From this perspective, it is actually true that the Sban Kingdom was a vassal of the Tyman Empire.

Of course, when supporting Franco, the Tyman Empire did not think about developing the Sban Kingdom into a vassal state, but just hoped to gain a reliable ally on the other side of the Locke Republic, so that the Locke Republic would rely more on the alliance with the Tyman Empire in terms of security.

Simply put, it is to consolidate its dominant position in the Western Continent.

Although the Thuman Empire was the defeated country in the last war, in the golden decade after the war, the Thuman Empire's comprehensive strength once again surpassed the Rock Republic. During the Great Depression, restrictions on the defeated countries began to loosen, and the military strength of the Thuman Empire also surpassed the Rock Republic again.

By the time the war broke out, the Tiaoman Empire was already the uncrowned overlord of the Western Continent.

However, this cannot change the fact that Franco relied on the full support of the Taman Empire to wear the crown.

But the result was that after the outbreak of the war, the Sban Kingdom repeatedly refused the request provided by the Torman Empire, that is, to participate in the war as a member of the Allied Group.

In addition, the Kingdom of Sban has repeatedly claimed to remain neutral forever.

The greatest convenience provided by the Sban Kingdom to the Tsuman army was to allow civil ships from the Tsuman Empire to berth into the port and to provide support for submarines operating in the Xilou Ocean, and act as submarine support ships.

As for the others, let's not talk about it.

Obviously, the help provided by the Sban Kingdom is not enough to repay the cultivation of the Triman Empire.

However, this is understandable.

At least before that, especially after the Newland Federation joined the war, the Tauman Empire did not have an absolute strategic advantage in the direction of Luxinhai.

There is no need to say more about Xi Luoyang.

Because the Tyman Empire was unable to send troops to the Sban Kingdom, it was even more impossible to provide sufficient military support to the Sban Kingdom. Therefore, if the Sban Kingdom chose to participate in the war, it must first consider whether it could withstand the attack from the alliance group, especially the Bran army deployed in the Direct Fortress.

There is no doubt that the Sban Kingdom has no confidence in this.

The Sban Kingdom is no longer the Sban Empire that it was back then. It not only does not have the invincible fleet that roams all over the world, but also lacks the heroic spirit of being arrogant to all the heroes.

As early as more than 200 years ago, after being defeated by Queen Victoria's Bran Kingdom, the Sban Kingdom became a second-rate or even a third-rate country.

Even now, the most famous thing about Sban Kingdom is its bullfighting performance.

If the combat effectiveness of the Sban army was strong enough, the Taman Empire would not have to provide military support at the beginning.

In Zheng Jiangming's words, the combat effectiveness of the Sban army is slightly stronger than that of the colonial rebellion armed forces, and is similar to that of the imperial military police.

It was precisely this that the Kingdom of Sban made up its mind to join the war until the Imperial fleet attacked Lu Xinhai, seized the power of sea control, and forced the Malta Bran army to surrender.

Of course, it will definitely take a long time to complete the preparations before joining the war.

The most critical thing among them is actually to let the Tiaoman army enter.

Fortunately, Liu Xiangzhen is still there, and the four small aircraft carriers that were reinforced are about to arrive, so the Tyman Army can travel to the Sban Kingdom by sea, so there is no need to hike over the Pyrenees, thereby avoiding the Rock Resistance organizations entrenched in the mountains.

In fact, this is also an arrangement made by the Imperial Navy.

On the day of arrival in Colombo, the Navy Command sent the second good news.

After a arduous battle, the Marines, which replaced the Army, finally wiped out the last enemy in the Kibu Fortress amid the roar of heavy siege cannons.

This is also the most difficult battle with the Bran army so far.

In the end, less than 3,000 Bran soldiers were captured, and almost all were seriously injured who had lost their combat effectiveness. Basically, no Bran soldiers surrendered voluntarily.

As for the surrender of the establishment, there is even less.

It is precisely because the Army switched defense with the Marines halfway through the tough battle.

It was not that the army did not want to fight, but that the imperial high-level adjustments made the army advance northward to capture and eradicate the colonial strongholds located along the Nile River by Bran’s army.

Obviously, combat operations in the hinterland of the mainland are the strengths of the army.

This arrangement shows that the empire's senior officials intend to regain the overseas territory they lost in the last war and return to the Heixuan area south of the sub-Haharan Desert.

Although the Heixuan area is extremely vast, most of the places are not civilized, and all they need to face is colonial garrisons and not solid military fortresses.

However, Bai Zhi Zhan was not very interested in the empire's colonial strategy.

During the battle to capture the Kibu Fortress, the Imperial Army and Marine Corps suffered a total of more than 28,000 casualties, including about 7,500 soldiers.

Of course, no matter what, after a arduous battle, he finally won the crucial Kibu Fortress.

From now on, there is no need to worry about the route from the empire to Lu Xinhai.

To this end, the Navy Command also made adjustments.

The landing fleet on Fan Yanyang's side and the transport fleet that cooperated with the landing fleet all went to Lu Xinhai and stayed in Alexandria for the time being on standby.

The Marines on the Kibu Fortress returned to Sri Lanka with the transport fleet to rest and recuperate with the Lion Spring City.

In order to boost morale and to reward the soldiers who have made great contributions, the Imperial Navy also specially arranged several requisitioned luxury cruise ships to Colombo and Lion Spring City to provide services to the Marines who returned triumphantly, including taking back the officers and soldiers who were injured in the battle back to the empire.
