"What? Long Qianlin is dead …? "
Three days later, in the Deer Horn County government office. When Lin Muyu received the news of Long Qianlin's death, he was extremely shocked and accidentally knocked over the cup on the table, causing the hot tea to spill all over the floor.
Wei Chou dusted off the rain on his armor and hung his raincoat at the side: "That's right, I just received Yu's letter. The Blackstone Empire's Ashen Flame Army and Sea Mountain Army had a total of 300,000 soldiers attacking the Dragon Island. Both sides fought for four days and four nights on the plains of the island. Almost none of the 200,000 soldiers from the Yihe Country survived. Long Qianlin died in battle, and the person who killed him was the commander of the Ashen Flame Army, called Fu Yu. "
"Fu Yu …"
Lin Muyu slowly sat down and muttered again: "Fu Yu …"
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Wei Chou was slightly surprised. Long Qianlin was a mortal enemy, but after hearing the news of his death, Lin Muyu did not seem to be happy at all.
Tang Xiaoxi, on the other hand, was smart enough to see through it at a glance. She said, "The Empire and the Yihe Nation have had endless grievances. After so many years, Long Qianlin was the pillar of the Yihe Nation. Now that Long Qianlin is dead, I'm sure Mumu will feel lonely."
"Yes …" Wei Chou nodded and said: "Your Highness, according to the descriptions of the survivors, Long Qianlin was still laughing at the moment of his death, saying that he was not fighting against his own people, and that he fought to his heart's content."
"Is it?"
Lin Muyu frowned: "But he died a humiliating death. Long Qianlin should not have ended up like that. Fu Yu does not have the qualifications to kill Long Qianlin. It is truly like a dragon swimming in shallow water being toyed with by shrimps. Fu Yu …"
Tang Xiaoxi said: "Mu, you want to take revenge for Long Qianlin?"
"No."
Lin Muyu shook her head. "Once the Blackstone Empire's army occupies Dragon-shaped Island, their next target will definitely be our empire's mainland. Fu Yu is fated to be our mortal enemy, but if it's possible, I really do want to kill this person with my own hands and take revenge for my old enemy and friend, Long Qianlin!"
Wei Chou said, "The Blackstone Empire's army hasn't occupied Dragon Island."
"Oh? Why? "
"It's said that after Long Qianlin and Ding Xi's troops were defeated, a group of people with glowing wings came to the Dragon-shaped Island. They were extremely powerful. One of the women gave Fu Yu a beating on the spot and ordered the Ashen Flame Corps to scram from the Dragon-shaped Island. After that, the Dragon-shaped Island was occupied by this group of people with wings."
"People with wings? What kind of people are they?" Lin Muyu was shocked.
"It's the Exiled Angel Legion. There are ten of them in total. It is said that they are from the Western Divine Realm. If nothing goes wrong, they will be our opponents."
"If that's the case, then we're in big trouble." Lin Muyu clenched her fists and said, "The Heaven's Pole Continent is already troublesome enough. If another Exiled Angel Legion comes, how are we going to defend against them? Wei Chou, do you know how strong these Exiled Angels are?"
"I don't know, but it is said that they are all at the Saint Martial King level and above."
"..."
Lin Muyu fell silent. She felt an indescribable irritation in the bottom of her heart. After a long while, she raised her head and asked, "Have the scouts sent back any news? Is there any news from the sea or the continental bridge?"
"There is!"
Wei Chou cupped his fists and said, "The Tianji Empire has sent out the Long Ji Army and the Flowing Ji Army, a total of about four hundred thousand soldiers. They are separated into more than one hundred and ninety warships and have already entered the Blue Wind Sea Domain last night. This is also equivalent to entering the empire's territorial waters. However, the strange thing is that they did not immediately launch an attack. Instead, they stayed on the surface of the sea, as if they are waiting for something."
"What about the Blackstone Empire's army?"
"They are heading in the direction of the Sky Province. According to our calculations, they should be arriving at the Sky Province's territorial waters at this time."
"Then … they should be making their move now."
Lin Muyu took a deep breath, "The Tianji Empire and the Blackstone Empire have joined hands to attack the Shattered Cauldron Realm. This war should have already begun. It's just that we, who are in the Eight Desolates Province, do not know about it."
"Then what should we do?" Wei Chou was stunned.
"It's fine. Blue Wind Port has Big Brother Feng and the Navy Commander Baili Cang guarding it. They won't be defeated so quickly. Moreover, they have Dragon Knights, while we have Magic Crystal Cannons. This war will be fought. What I am worried about is the Sky Province. The Sky Province is only guarded by the Marquis of the Tranquil Sea, Yao Yuan's army. It's impossible for them to be a match for the three hundred thousand soldiers of the Blackstone Empire. "
Thinking of this, he suddenly stood up and said, "This won't do. Immediately send out the order to reinforce the Sky Province. Order Xu Jiantao to directly lead the Five Valleys City's army to reinforce the Sky Province. Do not delay for even a moment!"
"Yes!"
Kirst's battle. "
"There won't be too intense a naval battle in the Sky Province. They will come ashore."
"Yes …"
Wei Chou's expression was a little gloomy. Lin Muyu was guarding the small Deer Horn County, but she seemed to be able to foresee all the major events in the world. This was probably the difference between him and a famous general, right? There was still a lot to learn!
At this moment, hurried footsteps could be heard from outside the door. A messenger said anxiously, "Your Highness, the Warhawk scouts have sent back news. Last night, the Long Ji Army in the Icebound Lands was nowhere to be seen. Their Dragon Knights are nowhere to be found. They should have moved somewhere else."
"Where would they go?" Wei Chou was stunned.
Lin Muyu's heart was in a mess. She said, "Who is the commander of the Long Ji Army?"
Wei Chou said, "It's their commander, Fang Lan?"
"I've spied on Fang Lan before. He definitely wouldn't have such a strategy." Lin Muyu immediately denied and said, "What are our spies doing? Who else would attack the Shattered Cauldron Realm together with the Long Ji Army and the Flowing Wind Army? For example, strategists."
Wei Chou was stunned. "There are quite a lot of strategists. The Marshal's Office of the Tianji Empire has a total of ten strategists. The most famous one is called Gong Shangming. Yes, yes, yes … it's this person. I heard that he came with the commander of the Flowing Wind Army, Caster."
"Gong Shangming?"
Lin Muyu's palm landed on the table lightly. "Find a chance to assassinate this person."
"Oh …"
Wei Chou was a little stunned. He had never seen Lin Muyu act like this. She had never planned to assassinate the opponent's strategist before the battle even started.
"Xiao Xi." Lin Muyu looked at the beautiful young lady beside her and said, "Deer Horn County no longer needs us. Let's go to Blue Wind Harbor. If there are no accidents, there will definitely be a huge battle there."
"Yes."
Tang Xiaoxi nodded.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had already flown out of Deer Horn County, leaving Wei Chou and Fengxi dumbstruck.
… …
"Dong dong dong dong …"
Two thousand to four hundred kilometers away, the sky above Blue Wind Harbor reverberated with the deafening sound of war drums. The sounds of the war drums became more and more intense, which also proved that a battle was about to begin.
In the harbor, battleships sailed into the sea after replenishing their supplies. Every battleship had a dark blue flag of the Purple Yinhua Empire. This flag that had lasted for tens of thousands of years still fluttered in the sky above the empire's territory. However, no one knew how long this history would last.
Huge battleships entered the inner sea one after another. The waterline was very deep, the parapet was high, and the outside of the parapet was cast with iron sheets. Every battleship cost a lot of money and had not been tested in battle. No one knew if these battleships, which were regarded as the empire's king's battleships, would be able to achieve great feats.
On the main battleship, the parapet was a full three meters tall. The bow of the ship was a defensive body wrapped in thick iron sheets. The tip of the ship protruded like a dragon's tooth and was forged with white diamond. This allowed the battleship to not be at a disadvantage when colliding with the opponent. On the deck, Feng Jixing held a long blade in his hand. He was tall and straight, and he had the demeanor of a king. His eyes were looking at the indistinct figures of the opponents in the distance. Those were the troops of the Tianji Empire!
"How are the preparations going?" He nodded and asked, as if he did not want to get an answer at all.
Baili Cang said respectfully, "Your Highness, a total of five hundred battleships are ready. In addition, there are also one thousand one hundred iron-skinned battleships, one thousand five hundred Liao Cang warships, and two thousand seven hundred barges. The Liao Cang and the iron-skinned battleships are equipped with light magic crystal cannons. The rest of the small ships are only equipped with elite crossbowmen and shield bearers. Each battleship battle group consists of two battleships, four iron-skinned battleships, six Liao Cang warships, and ten barges. They will reinforce and protect each other to achieve the maximum combat power. In addition, all the small ships are equipped with black beech oil and so on. If necessary, we can use fire to attack at any time."
"Okay, got it."
Feng Jixing waved his hand lightly and said, "Pass the order, advance, start the battle!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The sound of the war drums suddenly stopped and paused for two to three seconds after three rapid beats of the drums. Then, there were three more beats of the drums. This was the order to attack. Immediately, all the sailors on the battleships began to paddle with all their might. On the surface of the sea, the densely packed battleships of the empire headed straight for the Eastern Sea Region. An unprecedented naval battle had finally begun!
Feng Jixing looked up at the sky and sighed, "It's the east wind. I'm afraid it's not good for our army to fight."
Beside him, Qu Chu stroked his beard and smiled slightly, "With the help of the wind, this old man can do it."
"Then I'll have to trouble Qu," Qin Yan said respectfully.
"Okay."
Qu Chu's sleeves shook slightly. Suddenly, the sky changed color. In the blink of an eye, dark clouds covered the sky. A strong wind blew from the west, causing thousands of battleships of the empire to whistle forward. However, the wind from afar was still the east wind. It could be imagined that there were people in the Tianji Empire's fleet who were also summoning wind and rain. When the two forces collided, the aura on the entire sea surface suddenly became chaotic.
"I'm afraid the sea surface won't be peaceful soon," Qu Chu said calmly.
Ouyang Yan frowned slightly, "Yes, it's destined to not be peaceful."
In the blink of an eye, the impact airflow lingered and swirled around each other, condensing into a few soaring tornadoes that wreaked havoc on the surface of the sea. They were not under any control. Any battleship that entered their domain would definitely be destroyed!
"Avoid them!" Feng Jixing shouted loudly.
The flag-bearers on the mast quickly waved the command flag. The battleships began to separate and evade in an orderly manner. The two sides got closer and closer. Very soon, they were less than a kilometer apart. Even the red cloud battle flag of the Tianji Empire could be seen clearly. Moreover, there was a dragon knight hovering above every main battleship of the Tianji Empire. Obviously, they were used to defend against the attacks of the magic crystal cannons.
…
Zhang Wei said solemnly, "800 meters is still not enough … The light magic crystal cannons on the battleships need to be 500 meters to accurately fire. Continue forward!"
Feng Jixing leaned his long saber on the deck. He looked up at the sky and murmured, "His Majesty Qin Jin, Her Highness Qin Yin, for the sake of Great Qin, for the sake of all living beings, please bless your subordinate, Feng Jixing, with victory in this battle!"
