At 100 years old, he joined the army in place of his granddaughter, and became a national war god.

A sea breeze was blowing on the sea.

Yu Linyuan's gaze remained fixed on the small island in front of him. When he saw that the once lush island had now become a wasteland, he swallowed hard.

He felt the same fear and doubt as his soldiers.

What exactly was that thing released from the warship of the Great Qian Dynasty? It was able to raze a small island to the ground. If that kind of attack power were to hit a warship of the Liuyu Kingdom, probably just one shot would be enough to completely destroy the warship.

Wasn't it said that the warships of the Great Qian Dynasty were less powerful than fishing boats?

What exactly is going on?

Hemingway, standing to the side, was still in a daze, his mind replaying the scene of the Great Qian warships flattening the island.

That's absolutely amazing!

His face was slapped hard, because before this, he had always underestimated the strength of Daqian's warships and navy, thinking that Liuyu Kingdom's navy completely overwhelmed Daqian.

Now, reality has given him a hard slap in the face!

What could the Kingdom of Liuyu possibly have to compare with such a warship?

call!

Yu Linyuan took a deep breath, looked at Hemingway with a questioning gaze, and sneered, "Hemingway, didn't you say that the Great Qian Navy's warships were weak in combat?"

"What do I see now?"

"How exactly do you conduct your intelligence work?"

"snort!"

Faced with the king's questioning, Hemingway was speechless and felt aggrieved.

After all, half a year ago, he learned that the warships of the Great Qian Dynasty were indeed very weak in combat, and there were no warships as powerful as these.

Who would have thought that such a big change would happen in just a few months?

This was so unexpected!

Seeing that Hemingway didn't know how to explain to the king, Prime Minister Yunlan stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on General Hai; in fact, he was also a victim."

"Six months ago, Daqian's warships appeared in the East China Sea, and they certainly didn't look like this now."

"If we're talking about the culprits, the Eastern Barbarians are the first to be blamed."

"This time, we have been completely deceived by the Dongyi and dragged into their scheme."

"The Eastern Barbarians must already know the strength of the Great Qian navy and the power of its warships, and they have offended the Great Qian by burning, killing, and looting on its lands."

"Now, the Great Qian is rebuilding its navy and is going to cross the East China Sea and crush the Eastern Barbarians. They know that disaster is imminent, so they are using the so-called 'if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold' to lure us and then form an alliance."

Upon hearing this, Yu Linyuan suddenly realized the truth. Considering the strength that Daqian had demonstrated, the truth of the matter was exactly as the Prime Minister had said.

"Damn the Eastern Barbarian Emperor, damned envoy Takenaka Ryosuke!" Yu Linyuan gritted his teeth in hatred, his fists clenched, wishing he could skin the two of them alive. "So you wanted to drag us down with you, to send us to our deaths alongside the Eastern Barbarians!"

Yu Linyuan was also filled with remorse: "Why didn't you all dissuade me from forming an alliance with the Eastern Barbarians during yesterday's morning court session?"

The prime minister, knowing better than to be fooled, cupped his hands and said, "It wasn't just Your Majesty who was deceived by Takenaka Ryosuke; all the civil and military officials, including myself, were deceived."

"Therefore, our entire court bears responsibility for this matter."

"Now," Yu Linyuan took another deep breath, "what should we do?"

"If those Great Qian warships were to turn around and attack us now, how could we possibly defend ourselves?"

After speaking, he turned to look at the warships on the sea ahead, his brows furrowed, his heart filled with worry.

Hemingway clenched his fists and said with a forced smile, "If they really attack, I will personally lead 100,000 naval troops to fight them to the death."

Hahaha!

After listening to their conversation, Yun Lanzhi laughed.

This puzzled Yu Linyuan and the other man, who asked in unison, "Prime Minister, why are you laughing?"

Yun Lanzhi stroked his beard, then looked at the warships in the sea ahead, and said firmly, "Your Majesty, General, do not panic. The Great Qian warships will not attack us."

"Why?" Yu Linyuan asked impatiently.

Yun Lanzhi turned to look at Yu Linyuan and continued, "Your Majesty, think about it. If they wanted to attack us, why would they bomb that small island?"

"Isn't this behavior redundant?"

"Our warships are right across from theirs. If they want to attack, they can just bombard us."

"Moreover, the Great Qian Navy never intended to cross the maritime boundary between the two countries from beginning to end!"

These words brought tears of excitement to the eyes of Yu Linyuan and Hemingway.

This indeed shows that the Great Qian Dynasty did not intend to attack the Liuyu Kingdom.

"Prime Minister, what is their purpose in doing this?" Hemingway still didn't understand the ultimate goal of the Great Qian Dynasty. "If they're not attacking us, why are they appearing in this sea area?"

"Yes, I also don't understand the actions of the Great Qian Dynasty," Yu Linyuan said, raising his own question.

At this moment, Yun Lanzhi looked at the vast and magnificent Daqian warships and sighed deeply.

"That's a warning from the Great Qian Navy to our Liuyu Kingdom."

"They already knew that the Eastern Barbarians had sent envoys to Liuyu Kingdom to forge an alliance, but they didn't want to see bloodshed or Liuyu Kingdom dragged down by the Eastern Barbarian swindlers, so they staged this whole thing as a warning!"

"The Great Qian Dynasty truly lives up to its reputation as a great nation; its magnanimity is truly admirable."

After listening, Yu Linyuan's doubts were finally answered: "So that's how it is."

"In that case, the Great Qian Dynasty has really gone to great lengths to avoid war with my Liuyu Kingdom."

At this moment, Yun Lanzhi smiled and looked at Hemingway, asking with a teasing tone:

"General Hai, if I were to send you with 100,000 naval troops to confront these nine warships, what are your chances of victory?"

Hemingway scratched his head awkwardly, laughed sheepishly, and replied, "To be honest, our 100,000-strong navy had no chance against the firepower of those warships."

"That warship is several times the size of ours, and it carries such terrifyingly accurate weapons, plus its hull is like an impregnable fortress..."

"Even if we join forces with the Eastern Barbarian warships, our chances of victory are slim!"

"What's more, this might only be a part of the Great Qian's warships!" Yun Lanzhi couldn't help but add, "Fortunately, the Great Qian is merciful, otherwise we would have truly been dragged into the abyss of death by the Eastern Barbarians!"

Yu Linyuan was furious, his chest heaving violently as he gritted his teeth.

"Damn those Eastern Barbarians, forming an alliance?"

"I'll make a vow to your mother..."

"From now on, cut off all trade between the two countries and send the Eastern Barbarians to meet their maker."

"CNND..."

Yu Linyuan was clearly furious and started cursing the Dongyi Kingdom incoherently.

Yun Lanzhi calmly advised, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. It's not worth ruining your health for the sake of the Eastern Barbarians."

"In my humble opinion, the Eastern Barbarians are not far from their demise!"

These words stunned both Yu Linyuan and Hemingway.

Why did the Prime Minister make such a conclusion?

Yun Lanzhi pointed at the Great Qian warships ahead, a sly smile on his face: "Do you think the Eastern Barbarians can stop the Great Qian warships?"

"The Dongyi have been burning, killing, and looting in the East China Sea of ​​Daqian, which must have angered this sleeping beast. Now that they have awakened, the Dongyi will become food for this beast."

Hahaha!

Yu Linyuan burst into laughter.

"Very well, this will allow me to vent my anger."

"This time, we will quietly watch how the Dongyi are destroyed by the Great Qian."

woo woo woo...

At this moment, a loud horn sounded again from the Great Qian warship ahead, spreading across the sea and shaking people's hearts.

This bugle call sent the hearts of the 100,000 soldiers of the Liuyu Kingdom into their throats.

Because they feared this was the signal for the Great Qian to attack them.

Just as they were on edge, the Daqian warships changed course and headed back towards the Daqian Town Customs!

The moment they saw the Daqian warships returning, the hearts of the 100,000 soldiers finally settled down.

Yu Linyuan and the other two also breathed a deep sigh of relief.

……

On the deck of the Youlong warship.

Su Mu and Xiao Jingyu smiled as they looked at the Liuyu Kingdom's navy, which was ready for battle.

"I hope the King of Liuyu will be sensible enough to cancel the alliance with the Dongyi Kingdom, otherwise..." As Su Mu spoke, a fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes, "I will make the Liuyu Kingdom disappear forever!"
