The afterglow of the setting sun has coated the sea surface with a layer of golden film. In the glow of crimson and gold, the Fiery Sun Fleet, which has come all the way from the continent of Leon, is sailing majestically on the sea.

The number of warships is astonishing, and the leading ship, the Sun Goddess, is even larger, with four thick masts standing on the deck. The front two are hung with huge square sails, and the back two are triangular sails. The decks on both sides are full of cannons, their barrels facing the gun ports on the side, and they can fire fierce shells to destroy everything at the command of a commander.

At this moment, Clemento was standing at the bow with his hands behind his back, and a pair of blue eyes in his deep eye sockets were staring forward.

It was a ship flying the Hungarian flag, and it was heading towards the fleet.

As soon as he saw their ship, Clemento knew that Daqian was very close. This made him smile and he gave up the plan of staying on the sea all night.

Although there were enough sailors for the fleet to sail on the sea day and night, Clemento had never been to this strange place before, and the fleet had so many warships and carried the heavy trust of Queen Elizabeth, so he did not sail fast along the way. The reason was to avoid encountering emergencies such as reefs.

Leading such a large fleet to unfamiliar waters, he knew that he had to be cautious. Daqian was as easy as taking something out of a bag, and it was there, so there was no need to rush.

Now that the Hungarian ships have come to meet us, we can speed up the journey.

After a moment, as the distance shortened, the Hungarian warship adjusted its sails and sailed parallel to the Lieyang fleet, then slowly approached.

Soon, after some inspection, the Hungarians boarded the main ship where Clemento was.

Clemento sat in a chair, leisurely watching the Hungarians approach.

The leading Hun paid a respectful visit and told Clemento everything that had happened in recent days.

As soon as he finished speaking, they waited quietly, waiting for the decision of the powerful Minister of the Navy of the Sari Kingdom.

Clemento, who had already heard their story, had a gloomy face.

"So, the previous intelligence about Daqian was all wrong?"

Clemento couldn't believe it.

My old friend, Merri, has been dealing with overseas affairs for many years and is already very familiar with it. It is impossible for him to give completely wrong information without conducting a thorough investigation.

But now these Huns are saying with certainty that there are a large number of patrol ships near the coast of Daqian, and their coastal defense is extremely tight. For this reason, the fleets sent by various countries cannot even land.

Clemento did not think the Huns were lying because they had neither the reason nor the courage to deceive.

But what is going on?

Chief of Staff Wilson also had a gloomy expression on his face. He whispered, "Marshal, the intelligence before and after is so different. It seems that a great change has happened in that land recently."

"Sir Merrily said that the empress who rules Daqian invited us to come, but now their behavior is completely contrary to their previous promise. It seems that we..." His eyes were cold.

Clemento frowned.

If a huge change really happened, then where is Mai Lirui, who is already in Daqian, now?

Will he be okay?

After thinking for a while, Clemento guessed that nothing would happen to him. Although the Emperor Daqian might have changed his mind, they would not dare to do anything bad.

With their national strength, do they really dare to attack our ministers of the Sa Ri Kingdom? That is absolutely impossible! Unless they are seeking death!

Thinking of this, Clemento said with a gloomy face:

"Take us to where your fleet is."

He has decided that once they meet up, he will gather all the warships and sail towards Daqian tomorrow!

What a joke, a mere Daqian, after my fleet from the Sa-ri Kingdom came, you didn't welcome us with open arms, but wanted to confront us? !

-

into the night.

With the arrival of the Fiery Sun Fleet, those fleets that had no say in this temporary anchorage in the sea area all retreated to the periphery.

At this moment, a table has been set up on the main ship of the Lieyang Fleet, the "Sun Goddess". Unlike the previous meeting, there are only four people sitting at the table at this moment.

Clemento, who was sitting in the main seat, had a gloomy face and glanced at the faces of the other three people one by one.

This time, Augustus sat upright in the chair, his face became surprisingly solemn. Next to him was Muller, who still had a stern face. He was still the same as before, with his back straight, his military uniform clean and tidy, and his whole body exuding a sense of efficiency. Facing Clemento's gaze, he did not avoid it, but just stared at it expressionlessly.

On the other hand, Lucat had his eyes lowered and his face was slightly pale.

He really didn't want to board the Sun Goddess, and even more didn't want to see Clemento, but as soon as the Fiery Sun Fleet arrived here, Clemento summoned them here. As a hegemonic country, Clemento's words undoubtedly carried great weight, and no one would dare to disobey.

When he boarded the ship, Lucat knew that he might not be able to escape from the war this time.

That is why he felt melancholy at this moment.

"What do you think of this country?" Clemento suddenly asked.

"The territory is vast and the people are numerous. It is indeed a fertile land." Augustus did not hide the ambition in his eyes.

"This country has been unified, so there will be no shortage of troops. Previous intelligence seems to have portrayed Daqian as too weak. Judging from their ships patrolling near the coast, they are already prepared for a large-scale naval battle." Mueller said expressionlessly.

Lucat, who was lost in thought, looked up at Clemento's expression. When he saw his gloomy face, he knew that Clemento might have already decided when to go to Daqian.

At this point, he was helpless and could only accept his fate. After all, if the Fiery Sun Fleet had not arrived yet, he might be able to leave by boat, but now that they had arrived, he could only deal with the upcoming battle together with them.

So he said, "Marshal Clemento, no one knows the current situation of Daqian, but judging from the current signs and the navy they have already revealed, the naval combat power of this country must be strong."

Clemento turned his gaze to Lucat, who paused for a moment before continuing:

"I think we need to make a coordinated effort and deploy all our warships in a concentrated manner before heading towards South Port."
