The fiefdom increases by 1 soldier in 1 second, and the empress kneels down and begs not to rebel

On September 15th, the weather was clear and sunny.

Charme Island.

At the island's temporary station, in a renovated wooden shed on the shore, Federal Fleet Commander-in-Chief Edelman sat expressionlessly in a chair, looking at the seaside.

The warships on the sea are practicing combat formations. The person in charge of this exercise is Edman's deputy Vincent. Now these warships are arranged in two very long battle lines, which can maximize the role of each warship. Within these two battle lines, as long as the enemy ships enter them, they will be subjected to fierce ship-side artillery attacks.

Of course, Edelman knew that once a war broke out with the Yan Kingdom Navy, they would most likely also fight in a battle line. After all, they had won the previous battle in the South China Sea, so their navy must have mastered this most effective tactical formation.

This means that the next naval confrontation will be a brutal bombardment, and the competition will see which side's warship hull can no longer withstand it first.

In addition, the influence of wind power also plays a part in the success or failure of a battle. If you have the upper hand, then with the sails fully pulled, the warship will be able to penetrate directly into the center of the opponent's fleet, which will greatly increase the chances of victory. Therefore, seizing the upper hand at the beginning of a war is an extremely critical factor.

The Federation Fleet had already conducted an exercise like today's once before arriving at Charme Island. The last time was three days ago, commanded by Edelman himself, just after the storm.

Although there was a storm at sea, the federal fleet was almost unscathed because they arrived at Charmey Island on August 22nd. Then all the warships dropped their anchors, furled their sails and anchored near the coast of Charmey Island.

A few days after they anchored, that is, at the end of the month, a storm occurred at sea, which allowed them to avoid the storm. After the storm, only a few warships had some minor problems, but they could be repaired and were not serious.

To come through the storm almost unscathed was clearly a good sign.

This made Edelman think that this voyage was exceptionally smooth, at least so far, there had not been any setbacks.

However, the only thing that made him a little dissatisfied was that the coalition forces had not yet arrived at Charmey Island. Logically, they should have arrived at the end of August, but considering the storm, he felt that it was understandable. Perhaps their voyage was also affected by the storm.

But until today, there was still no sign of the coalition forces arriving, which made Edelman more and more puzzled and dissatisfied.

Today is already September 15th, and it will take at least another month to reach the coast near Yan State, and this is only possible without taking into account bad weather.

If it continues to drag on until the weather turns cold, it will have a certain impact on the fleet, which will invisibly weaken the fleet's overall combat effectiveness. For this reason, Edelman sent more than a dozen warships three days ago to check the route they came from, hoping to see traces of the coalition forces on the sea.

But when they came back this morning, they said there was nothing on the sea and they did not see any Allied warships.

After receiving this news, Edelman wondered if they had encountered an extreme storm on the way that caused serious damage to the fleet, thus slowing down their journey?

But he changed his mind and thought, considering how much importance they attach to Yan Country now, they must have sent out their most sophisticated warships for this voyage. How could they easily suffer so many casualties in the storm?

Various speculations made Edelman feel irritated all morning. Even though the wind blowing from the sea was cool, he still felt a little irritated.

But it must be said that Charme Island is indeed a livable island. It is surrounded by the sea. In addition to the vast golden beaches, there are forests, rivers, lush vegetation, and even sheep on the island. Edelman learned this after sending soldiers to explore a few days ago.

Charme Island was named by the Sari Kingdom. If it weren't for the fact that it was too far away from their homeland and it was not cost-effective to transport supplies here, Edelman thought they would have established a transit station on this island.

And when the battle against Yan State is over, Edelman plans to leave some soldiers stationed here.

Just as his thoughts were in a mess, a military call suddenly sounded on the sea. Edman immediately raised his head and looked at the sea. A warship was heading quickly towards Charmey Island.

"Is there an unexpected situation?"

Edelman frowned, immediately stood up and ran towards the shore. The soldiers who remained on the island also took action immediately.

A moment later, the warship lowered the small boat, and the soldiers on the ship quickly paddled the small boat to the shore.

"Commander! There's an emergency!"

The soldiers who came down from the ship waded through the sea water and shouted loudly with excited looks before they completely reached the shore.

"What happened?!" Edelman asked while looking at the sea. He didn't see anything unusual within his current field of vision.

The soldier finally came closer, panting and saying, "The warships at the front of the battle line have discovered foreign ships! No...it should be a fleet, about 100 to 200 ships."

Hearing this, Edman quickly turned his gaze toward the sea again, muttering to himself:

"Our battle line is arranged in the direction of Yan Country. The fleet coming from the opposite side...it is very likely a fleet from Yan Country."

"Have you seen their flag? Can you tell which country they are from?" Edelman asked anxiously.

"Too far away, Commander. The people on the front ship accidentally saw them through the telescope. They were very far away and could only vaguely see that it was a fleet, but the number should be similar. They were sailing side by side in a straight line and heading in our direction!"

Edman thought for a few breaths, and then he shouted:

"Quick! Take me aboard immediately!"

After saying this, he acted efficiently and quickly and immediately ran towards the small boat. With the desperate rowing of the sailors, Edelman soon boarded the warship.

He asked the fleet to continue sailing in the battle line, and then ordered the ship he was on to break away from the formation and speed up to the front of the battle line.

After a while, Edelman transferred to the front battleship where his deputy Vincent was.

As soon as he saw Edman board the ship, Vincent hurriedly said, "Commander, they are getting farther and farther away from us. It seems that they have discovered our fleet, turned around, and are moving away from us."

Edman's face flushed slightly, which was the color of excitement. He continued:

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the battleship of Yan Country."

Vincent nodded and said, "I thought so too, but why are they here?"

Edman looked at the sea through a telescope and said:

"How come they are here? Vincent, you have to know that the Yan people won the last battle, which undoubtedly made these guys much bolder. They are exploring the ocean."

"It seems this country also wants to conquer this ocean."

Vincent nodded, and Edman put down the telescope and continued, "I can't see the number of their warships clearly, Vincent, are you sure you can see the number of their warships just now? Only one or two hundred?"

Vincent immediately said, "Yes, Commander, I am not the only one who estimated this number. Others have made the same judgment."

"But considering that you are not on board, I did not take any action for safety reasons, and our ship is not fully sailed now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Edelman burst into laughter.

"Why is the commander laughing?" Vincent asked puzzled.
