In the darkness, all ten large ships hoisted their sails and headed south at full speed.
The Qintong Canal, after hundreds of years of excavation, connected most of the Xia Kingdom's territory and could reach the South China Sea from Qin City. The Xia Kingdom's navy was powerful and it always attached great importance to its navy.
On the big ship headed by it, Xia Shichang stood outside the second-floor terrace with his hands behind his back, looking sideways at the distant Qin City, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Because of the protection of the misty forest, the Xia Kingdom has not been disturbed by the war in the north for several years. Unexpectedly, this time the opponent directly entered the imperial capital, and he, the emperor, had to escape overnight.
"Brother Imperial!" Xia Shiming came out of the room, stood beside him, and consoled him, "You don't have to worry too much. As long as we rush to the south and join up with the Southern Navy, we will naturally have a chance to regain the lost ground!"
Xia Shichang shook his head gently, "I have been given this order for several days, but my fourth brother has always made excuses to stay away. I am always a little worried..."
Xia Shiming smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, there must be some reason why the fourth brother didn't return. No matter what, we are all brothers. He can't ignore the country of Daxia!"
Xia Shichang pondered for a moment, "No matter what, let's go to Jiuzhou City first!"
The fourth brother Xia Shijue has amassed 100,000 naval troops in the South China Sea. Although there has been no major movement in these years, he has heard a lot of news overtly and secretly. This time such a big thing happened, and he sent troops to the south three times. This fourth brother
Xia Shichang didn't believe that he didn't have second thoughts.
In mid-air, a strong wind rose.
Feeling the wind blowing over their heads, the two Xia brothers raised their faces in confusion. They saw a red shadow flying past in the night above their heads, and then stopped in mid-air not far in front of the ship.
Seeing the huge beast clearly, cold sweat broke out on the backs of the two Xia brothers.
In mid-air, the behemoth, which was a hundred meters tall, was none other than Mo Li's red dragon. It was hovering in the mid-air. The dragon's eyes were coldly staring at the big ship on the canal, and it opened suddenly.
From the big mouth, a piece of flame spurts out.
The crimson flames fell on the river, but did not disperse, blocking the fleet's path like a wall of fire.
The steaming flames reflected the red dragon's scales, and the two people on the dragon were clearly visible.
On the dragon's head, the person wearing a powerful snow-like outfit is none other than Mo Li. Beside her, Cangshan Snow, dressed in fiery red clothing, stands with his arms folded, showing his solemn look.
The flames lit up the night sky. The soldiers on the ship and all the royal family members rushed out of the cabin in shock. Seeing the giant dragon in mid-air and the two people on the dragon's head, even if they didn't recognize who Mo Li was, they already guessed.
When her identity was revealed, everyone turned pale.
The soldiers dropped the anchor in panic, lowered the sails and stopped the ship.
On the dragon's back, Mo Li smiled and said, "Qingfeng came all the way and wanted to have a good chat with Emperor Xia, but Emperor Xia left overnight without seeing you. But I feel that Qingfeng is not worthy of meeting you?!"
Xia Shichang raised his head and stared at the young man in snow clothes in mid-air. His back and palms were already covered with sweat. He clenched the railing with both hands. He shouted loudly, "Qingfeng, what do you want?!"
Li Qiye chuckled and said, "It's very simple. Kneel down and apologize to me now, then surrender. I can spare you..."
"Bold!" Xia Shiming shouted angrily, "You..."
puff!
The arrow slicked through the night sky and went straight into Xia Shiming's chest. Under the powerful impact, Xia Shiming's body flew straight out and fell on the deck behind him, causing the deck to fly everywhere.
