Chapter 1163: Diplomacy failed, time to fight

"Hua la..."

A giant map was laid out on the deck by Han Yuan. Our s.h.i.+p was a thousand men wars.h.i.+p. Han Yuan held his blade and smiled, "General, we are quite lucky, this is the best season to head out to sea. There is just a slight breeze and not a huge storm if not who knows how many of our s.h.i.+ps would be able to return."

Xiao Lie pointed at the red mark on the map, "Sir take a look, these are the islands. There are a total of 112 small islands gathered together. The closest 2 are just a jump away."

I took a glance and saw that there were two enormous ones. These 2 islands took up around 40% of the area and they were close to one another, "What are these two islands called?"

"That is Dragon Tail Island, actually these two islands are connected and as they are close to one another they are called Dragon Tail Island. Dragon Tail Island is around a fourth of Ba Huang City and they have a lot of resources. There are forests and birds around the islands and the natives there cleared out farmland and also dug out mines to forge weapons. One can say that this Dragon Tail Island is one of the strongest out of all the islands."

As he said that, Xiao Lie took out an old notebook and said, "Dragon Tail Island is ruled by Duke Luobu and he was the cousin of Ba Huang City's Luo Lei. After Luo Lei fell he took all his remaining resources and headed to Dragon Tail Island to hire a bunch of mercenaries to rule over the island. Now the entire Dragon Tail Island belongs to him and he has 150 thousand troops there. He is like a king on the island. A while ago when Queen Angela sent an envoy over to form an alliance with her uncle, the envoy's ear was sliced off. Queen Angela was furious but due to her lack of war s.h.i.+ps, she didn't battle Dragon Tail Island."

I laughed, "What a coincidence. I also can help Angela kill her cousin. Once we deal with Dragon Tail Island, I will capture him alive and hand him over to Angela."

"Yes!"

Xiao Lie laughed, "Sir, based on the details from the fisherman, at least 500 thousand adventurers have surged into Dragon Tail Island. Do you think we can take them down?"

"Of course."

I sat on the s.h.i.+p and smiled, "As long as we deal with Luobu's troops, the island would be ours. We need to win this battle. Send War Hawk Knights to scout the situation there. After which we will decide the location to dock and attack."

"Yes!"

...

The wind blew slightly and lifted the sails. 1052 s.h.i.+ps moved forwards like a swallow. Based on what Xiao Lie said, it would take a night to get to Dragon Tail Island so it would be 6 hours in real life. A short rest and we would be there. Apart from that, Q-Sword sent a message that he led Hero Mound's 10 thousand Hundred Abyss Cavalries over. Hundred Abyss Cavalry could run on water and they were a special group. I thanked him and told him to bring Tang Gu and Tang Qi over to Royal Army's main s.h.i.+p.

Apart from that, Drunken Spear led 4000+ Flying Dragon elites to join this event. As for Ye Lai and Misty Clouds, due to the restrictions, they weren't able to join in

Not long later, Drunken Spear, Q-Sword, Tang Qi, Tang Gu etc management players appeared on our s.h.i.+p. When they saw Royal Army's G.o.d Dragon Cannon, Q-Sword's face was filled with excitement.

He touched the barrel of the G.o.d Dragon Cannon and smiled, "Is this the legendary G.o.d Dragon Cannon that can wipe out a mountain with one shot... It really looks different."

I said, "Unfortunately, there are only 10 of them."

"Why can't we produce them in bulk?"

"They need high purity dragon crystal cannons, but there are just so few of them, so."

"So that is the case." Q-Sword touched the body of the G.o.d Dragon Cannon and smiled, "But 10 is enough, they are a huge deterrent. How are you planning to use these 10?"

"Get near to the sh.o.r.e and blow them from out of their range. Let's wipe out their defenses before we disembark!"

"Okay, beautiful..."

...

After I got back from Henan, my relations.h.i.+p with Q-Sword got much better. Our conflicts from before were all solved and that was a good thing. In the future country wars, the two of us had to work together to deal with the Americans and Russians.

4 hours pa.s.sed in a blink of an eye and the War Hawk Knights that Xiao Lie sent out returned. Duke Luobu knew that we were going to attack them so he was going to go all out against us. All their s.h.i.+ps were in the harbor and he wasn't planning to fight us at sea. In truth, even if they came out they were dead. They had at most 300 s.h.i.+ps. Although they said that they had 2000 s.h.i.+ps but most were fis.h.i.+ng boats.

Xiao Lie drew many red points which were their final defense locations. He then stood up, "Sir, Duke Luobu isn't planning to discuss with us. He moved all his cannons to the border and is prepared to fire at us."

I nodded and said easily, "Full speed ahead. Tell the soldiers to rest, we will begin in 2 hours."

"Yes, sir!"

Unknowingly, I have already commanded the Royal Army many times such that the excitement before war had reduced. This wasn't a bad thing, at least it made me calmer.

...

Time pa.s.sed really quickly. Two hours later, we had traveled for 6 hours on the endless ocean and finally, we could see a continent on the horizon. This was the legendary Dragon Tail Island.

"Finally!"

Q-Sword clenched his fist and said, "Hey, I heard that Frost Forest is on Dragon Tail Island. If he is there don't fight with me, I want to solo."

I was shocked and then laughed. Q-Sword had finished his Rising Dragon Set and he was at his peak. Naturally, I could understand why he wanted to solo the j.a.panese Region's top expert. I nodded, "Okay, if we see Frost Forest lead your Hundred Abyss Cavalry over to solo him. Our Zhan Long members won't fight with you."

"Okay, you are a true brother, haha!"

A water crystal dragon landed beside and Qing Luo smiled, "Sir, is our dragon riders going to attack?"

I shook my head, "Calm down, let us fire at them first."

"Okay."

Our 1000+ s.h.i.+ps had the most advanced weapons in Tian Ling City and we were the most advanced on the entire continent. As for the cannons from Luobu, their range and power weren't on our level. It was like china using their 4th generation jets fighting America's second generation F-4s, it was a sure win.

...

"Surround!" I spread my hand and ordered.

The s.h.i.+ps formed up and faced off against the Dragon Tail Island army. I could see the troops on the island and these should be Luobu's private army. They pushed out black cannons but their strength was on the level of the Flame Dragon Cannons but much weaker than the Dragon Crystal Cannons, much less the G.o.d Dragon Cannon.

"Attack?" Han Yuan asked.

I shook my head, "Send a s.h.i.+p to ask if they are willing to surrender."

"Yes!"

A s.h.i.+p sailed over but halfway through, there was a cannon explosion and both the s.h.i.+p and the soldier on it turned into ashes. This was their reply.

I was furious and punched the s.h.i.+p, "b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

Q-Sword said, "Fire, there is no need to think now."

I nodded, "Send my order, maintain 1000 meter distance and fire the cannons. We don't need their harbor. Fire for an hour and destroy their border defence. After an hour, the dragonriders will be the second attack. All s.h.i.+ps will then dock!"

"Yes!"

...

A few minutes later, cannons fired. The range of the Dragon Crystal Cannons was at 1000 meters while the G.o.d Dragon Cannon was at 3000 meters. Along with the G.o.d Dragon Cannons firing, the ocean surface rippled and the s.h.i.+ps shook. b.a.l.l.s of flames surged into the sky. Duke Luobu's army turned into a pile of ruins and the dock was in chaos.

Probably Duke Luobu didn't expect us to be so strong. Not long later, the Dragon Tail Island edges were turned into a sea of flames. But we didn't stop and this continued for more than half an hour.

Qing Luo raised her dragon sword and shouted loudly, "Dragon riders, attack!"

31 dragon riders flew towards the Dragon Tail Island. Our s.h.i.+p was less than hundreds of meters away so I smiled towards everyone, "Disembark."

I opened my palm and summoned Mei'er!

"Shua!"

A six colored star shone on the ocean surface and Mei'er appeared in dragon form. The daughter of the dragon G.o.d was just so shocking. When I stepped on her back, awe appeared in Q-Sword and Drunken Spear's eyes, "This fellow actually has a giant dragon mount!"

Actually, Dragon City and I were close so all players knew that I would become a dragonrider. They just didn't expect me to have a mount now and it was also a pureblood G.o.d Dragon tier Giant Dragon!

Mei'er spat out a mouthful of dragon breath into the crowd. Luobu's private army cried out as they turned into ashes.
