After circling for three weeks, Yiyi did not fall down, but fluttered its wings and flew away in the direction from which it came.
Harold looked at this scene with confusion: "Your Majesty Commander, isn't that your pet? What is the meaning of such weird behavior?"
Yahan said with a smile: "It's nothing. Maybe it saw a stranger below and didn't want to come down. Just let it fly for a while."
Harold was still a little confused. But Yahan waved his hand: "Excuse me."
Yahan walked into the ship's command room, asked the guards to retreat, and then took out a linen bag from his waist.
Inside the linen bag was a piece of parchment.
After reading the words on the parchment, Yahan thought for a while and then walked out of the command room.
"The exercise moves on to the next item: long-distance marching combat! Everyone is in place!"
Ahan's orders were conveyed to the leaders of the fleets of other countries through semaphores.
Regarding this order, the leaders of various countries were confused and sent people to inquire.
Knight Harold and Ahan were on the same ship and immediately raised a question: "The most important thing now is the training of the sailors' underwater combat capabilities. The training program is only halfway through, should we stop it directly?"
"That's right." Yahan nodded and said.
There was also a female elf who came over in a small boat. She was Dorothea's messenger. After approaching, she said: "Your Excellency, Commander, Ms. Dorothea sends her regards. Her opinion is that there is no need to conduct exercises for long-distance marches."
, this is the job of the helmsman and navigator, and there is no improvement for the sailors. They can only sleep in the cabin...so I hope to continue the underwater combat training."
Seeing that other countries' fleets had small boats carrying messengers, they obviously did not support Yahan's decision.
Yahan felt a headache. He deeply realized that although the various countries in the mainland formed a "coalition force", they had different commands and were essentially a mess. Subordinates questioned the commander's orders during military exercises. This was not true in a well-disciplined regular army.
is unimaginable.
No wonder the prophet Dio proposed that in order for the countries to form a true alliance, they must not only bring out their most elite troops to participate in the war, but the troops must also have unified command.
The current problem of the coalition forces, in addition to the "inconsistency of command" that Yahan deeply felt, is that the quality is average. The troops sent by various countries to participate in the battle in the Bonus Sea are basically second-rate troops, not the most elite legions.
For example, the swordsingers of the Elf Kingdom, the heavy-armored warriors of the Dwarf Kingdom, Calcino's "Wings of Freedom" air cavalry...these truly elite units have all remained in the country. It was only because of the Queen of Camelot's honor that she sent out the elite.
A small part of the mage group, the eight archmages among them are the backbone of the mage group.
In the final analysis, countries have not yet reached the point where they can put aside their past grudges and cooperate sincerely, and they still have deep suspicions about each other.
The Orc Kingdom did not join the coalition, so the Elf Kingdom, which was at war with it, did not dare to send its elite troops to participate in the war in the Bonus Sea, and Camelot did not dare to go all out. Other countries naturally followed suit and all
He was afraid that his elite army would be damaged.
Taking a deep breath, Yahan recalled the content on the parchment and said decisively: "Everyone is in position, follow my flagship, and conduct a long-distance marching exercise! If you do not obey the commander, you will be deemed to have automatically withdrawn from this exercise. Please
Return to Port Tsakalo immediately."
After finishing speaking, Yahan directly ordered the ship to sail. The flagship sailed all the way to the east.
Several messengers hurriedly returned to their respective armies by boat to report to the leaders.
The leaders of various countries all reacted a little strangely to Yahan. It seems that the commander is angry?
There was no need to go against Lord Yahan's will for this trivial matter. After weighing the pros and cons, the leaders of various countries quickly ordered the suspension of underwater combat exercises, and followed Yahan's flagship in a chaotic manner, heading east.
Yahan stood at the bow of the boat, staring at the white eagle in the clouds ahead.
"Your Excellency, Commander, is that white eagle leading the way for us?" Female mage Catherine said thoughtfully, "This long-distance march is probably not part of a military exercise, but has another purpose."
"Of course it is part of the military exercise, and it is an important part." Yahan said.
"Okay, I believe you for the time being." Catherine shook her head. She had seen the white eagle Yiyi before, and knew that there must be a mysterious connection between the white eagle and the prophet Dio. But Yahan didn't want to reveal it, so she knew what was going on.
No more words to say.
After the white eagle led the fleet to fly for a certain distance, it suddenly began to circle. After circling for two weeks, it spread its wings and glided, no longer moving forward.
After Yahan saw it, he immediately ordered the flagship to stop advancing and stay in place for two hours.
The fleets of various countries that followed behind were confused for a while, and the leaders of each country sent messengers to ask again, but this time Yahan refused to explain at all, and did not even give them a chance to meet.
The leaders of various countries felt that Yahan was really angry. They could only comply with Yahan's wishes and stay put until the next high-level military meeting was held before questioning the commander.
They were said to be on standby for two hours, but the two hours had passed, and when the sun was about to set, Yahan still did not give the order to sail. He sat calmly on the bow of the flagship, staring at the ship that kept gliding but did not move forward.
White Eagle.
Catherine came over quietly.
"Your Majesty Commander, the standby time has passed. Should we continue marching?"
"Wait a moment..." Before Yahan could finish his words, he suddenly heard a chirp from a white eagle, flapped its wings and flew towards the east, making a clear eagle call as it flew back.
"The time has come!"
Yahan suddenly jumped up and said loudly: "Send the order to sail and prepare for a naval battle! Send the order to make it clear to the commanders of the fleets of various countries that this is not a drill!"
…
Ghost ship.
At this time, a naval battle had broken out in the sea area where the giant ship was located!
Just like what Bai Xiaowen saw on the prophecy slate (bad luck bracelet), ghost ships emerged one after another from the bottom of the sea. In front of them were assault boats carrying snake warriors.
charge.
At this time, Qiao Rui, Han Xu and Li Shuyi were no longer on the ghost ship. Only Cecilia accompanied Bai Xiaowen.
It was dusk. Those Camelot mages were already convinced of Bai Xiaowen's ability as a prophet.
"Fire! Shoot in turn, odd-numbered forts first, even-numbered forts behind!" Bai Xiaowen ordered loudly, "Aim at the ghost ship and then attack. Don't worry about the assault boats! Don't panic, reinforcements are already on the way!"
