The sky is clear. in a port less than a hundred miles from King Sauron.
On the shores of the inland sea of Roland Continent, the coastal topography of this place takes the shape of an inverted half-moon, forming a natural harbor and wharf, and in fact, it is also the home of the main fleet of the Royal Navy of the Kingdom of Sauron.
Fourteen huge first-class warships of the Roland Continent lined up and docked next to the pier.
At this moment, the dock is full of large and small warships, these warships have passed through a simple formation, all the weapons they wear have been disassembled, and the flags have all been replaced with a royal flag of the Sauron Kingdom and a golden thorn flower banner The imperial flag of the Bright Empire.
A whole hundred warships were already lined up and ready to go.
After King Sauron had waited for many days, the first batch of warships had been mobilized from the various kingdoms of the Roland Continent.
According to the contract, the first batch of 100 warships will depart from the port today and head to the Bright Continent.
On a simple platform on the dock, the King and Roddy stood side by side, both smiling at the fleet of ships in the dock below.
Luo Di sighed in his heart, the Roland Navy is really powerful, especially the largest fourteen first-class warships, such a large warship can accommodate an army of more than two thousand people, such a giant warship, the navy of the Bright Empire does not have one, but people take out fourteen so easily.
King Sauron sent an envoy to board a ship to the Empire of Light with a peace agreement signed by both sides, and according to the agreement between the two sides, when the ships arrived in the Empire of Light, the first batch of released prisoners of war would also be shipped back one after another.
The king was not worried that the Empire of Light would take the warship and not let anyone go, after all, Duke Tulip was still with him, and Miss Nicole.
These two people are worth more than a hundred warships.
According to the terms negotiated by everyone, before the completion of this transaction, Luo Di will stay in the Roland Continent, which also means a disguised mortgage.
After the roar of a cannon salute, the flag-bearer standing on a high tower in the pier waved the colorful flag in his hand a few times, and the largest ship in the fleet was hoisted with the flagship's flag, and then the sailors commanded in the flag language from the lookout, and the mighty fleet began to line up and slowly sail out of the port.
The sun was shining, shining on the microwave rippling sea, like golden scales.
The king felt a little proud in his heart, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Your Excellency Roddy, how do you look at the fleet in front of you?"
Roddy replied very simply: "Very good, such a fleet is indeed invincible above the sea" Suddenly, a person next to him couldn't help but snort coldly, and there seemed to be some dissatisfaction in his voice.
It was that Crown Prince Arvin.
As the commander in chief of the navy, he was naturally unwilling to see these sturdy warships given to the enemy.
The king didn't care about Yawen's emotions, but smiled faintly and said, "Yawen, it's not too early, you can also board the ship."
Because it is the first batch of warships, it is related to the sincerity of the cooperation between the two families, and the Sauron Kingdom naturally wants to send a heavyweight with a high status to show the sincerity of cooperation.
As the crown prince of the kingdom, Yawen was sent to the Empire of Light.
Although Arwen was the main battle faction, under the persuasion of the king's efforts, he actually agreed to this request.
His men had already crossed the deck bench to the flagship leaning against the shore.
Yawen finally sighed, bowed to the king and Roddy, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, I went. ” After saying this, without even glancing at Roddy, the proud young man strode away.
The king looked at the back of his crown prince and suddenly sighed: "Young man, it's not a good thing to be too sharp."
Speaking of which, he glanced at Roddy, intentionally or unintentionally.
Roddy closed his mouth and didn't speak, thinking to himself that this is your family matter, what are you doing with me Now that there is no one else around, the guards of the guards are standing in the distance, the king suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Roddy, do you look at these warships?"
Luo Di was stunned and said, "Naturally, it is much better than the warships of our Bright Empire." ” The king sighed suddenly, and said in a low voice, "Yes, those kingdoms did not follow the rules this time, and did not get some to fool us.
After all, they still have hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war in your hands, and they don't dare to make ghosts, and they are shoddy.
But," he suddenly pointed to the largest flagship that Yawen had boarded, and said, "Have you seen this ship, this is already a first-class warship in our Roland Continent, and this kind of warship is made of high-grade iron and wood all over its body, and it is extremely strong.
The ship is a hundred meters long and can accommodate three thousand people Such a warship, the kingdom of the entire Roland Continent combined, is less than a hundred" "Oh" Luo Di's eyes lit up, less than a hundred, then this time the other party gave himself fourteen at once, that is naturally a full amount of money.
The king smiled slightly: "But let me tell you, it is said that the Roland Maritime Alliance is invincible in the world, but only we Roland people know that the real sea overlord is not those of us who live on the continent but the navy of the dwarf race."
After a pause, the king said, "Although the dwarf race is sparsely populated, it is impossible for them to have a large army.
But ironwood is abundant in their territory, and they have such natural conditions that they can build a navy that is even more powerful than ours."
The king took a thin scroll of paper from his sleeve and slowly unfolded it in front of Roddy.
"You see, this is the main warship of the Dwarven Navy, although the size of the ship varies according to the level, but it is basically made according to this model, this kind of warship has a high bow and a sharp bow, which is conducive to breaking the waves.
There are three main masts on the warship, and there are a total of five sails on it, and the mast of the five-sail warship uses a special technology to rotate on its own, and it is extremely flexible, and the speed at sea comes and goes like the wind."
The king pointed his finger to the pattern of the warship on the drawing, and continued: "And the hull is built very high, and the largest five-sailed warship is as tall as a four-story building, with a fence and arrows on it."
"Arrow stampede" Luo Di was stunned for a moment: "Is it useful to use bows and arrows in naval battles?"
The king smiled bitterly: "Have you forgotten what the dwarf race is rich in, ironwood" He smiled as if he was helpless: "Although there is a lot of ironwood in the Roland Continent, it is not yet extravagant enough to use ironwood to make arrows, but these damn dwarf clans, they even use ironwood, the kind of arrows they shoot out very fast, and the range is almost more than fifty percent farther than ordinary bows and arrows."
In a naval battle, when the ships of both sides have not yet approached, it can be a great headache.
Almost far beyond the range of the magician's magic attack, if the two sides go to war, then the magician we wear is within the range of the opponent's bow and arrow, and cannot fly up to attack at all."
"And the dwarves are naturally good craftsmen, and they are good at making good weapons.
Strike us with this bow and arrow when they are far away, and when the two sides get closer, they still have a weapon."

The king's eyes flickered, and he pointed to a row of thin pipes sticking out of the hull on both sides of the drawing paper, and said: "This is a kind of nozzle, once the enemy ship gets close to a certain distance, a black oil will be sprayed from the pipe, and that oil will be sprayed on the enemy ship, and their archers will launch rockets, and the more they are watered, the more fierce the burning will be, although the Roland warship is made of ironwood, and the fireproof surname is much higher than that of ordinary ships, but ironwood is still wood after all."
The expression on Roddy's face seemed to be lost in thought.
The king continued: "According to my information, there are a total of two hundred and fifty warships of the dwarf clan, among which the largest five-sail warship can accommodate 1,500 people, and its combat effectiveness is definitely not below our first-class Roland warship, and" Speaking of this, the king seemed to smile helplessly: "And more than half of our fleet is this kind of big ship, and the other small ships are used for reconnaissance and patrol."
Luo Di closed his eyes and muttered: "In this way, we don't have an advantage in speed, and we don't seem to please Your Majesty in both long-range and close combat, but you have a problem for me."
The king smiled slightly, rolled up the blueprint in his hand, and then stuffed it into Roddy's hand, and smiled: "Of course, we didn't plan to fight their navy head-on, and even if we won in the end, it would be a disastrous victory, and the cost would be too great." ” At this, the king took out a scroll of paper from his other sleeve as if by magic, and when he unfolded it, he saw a map of the sea.
"Our sneak attack plan is nominally the last batch of warships to be transported to the Bright Continent to exchange prisoners of war in half a month" He pointed to the map and said slowly: "You see, this is their island country, and our first few fleets passed by on their left, all the way south, sailed out of the inland sea, and went to the southern Bright Continent These dwarf clans are very timid, and they are also afraid that we will attack, so when the first few fleets pass by, they will inevitably send their own navy to patrol back and forth on the left side of their island country, To do surveillance, and what we have to do is make the most of that.
The king was smiling: "You take the last fleet, a total of two hundred and fifty warships, and I will take all the best Sauron royal navy that I can concentrate, and after a day's journey out of the harbor, I suddenly turn around and head north."
"To the north" Roddy's eyes lit up, and his gaze seemed to have some deep meaning, and he glanced deeply at the king.
The king smiled: "It seems that you also understand that our fleet will turn to the north, and after five days it will be able to go around the back of their island nation, and then it will be" The king suddenly waved his hand, clenched his fist, and said categorically: "Landing, sneak attack" Luo Di thought for a while and said, "The plan is not bad, but I don't understand things at sea, Your Majesty told me this" The king smiled: "Naturally, my naval commander is in charge of the affairs at sea, but after going ashore, the battle will be handed over to Your Excellency, I know that your country is still invincible in land warfare, and I hope Your Excellency will live up to my trust" He smiled: "As for the information on the distribution of troops on the dwarf island country, I will hand it over to you in the next two days." ” Luo Di sighed: "With such a big plan, secrecy is the most important.
After all, I am an outsider, and it is up to Your Majesty to do these things. ” The king smiled slightly and said, "Naturally, only four people know about this matter now.
Even if we set off in half a month, the soldiers will not know where we are going, I will give the order to declare war at sea, and the news will definitely not leak out at that time."
At this moment, in the dock below, the fleet has gradually left, and the last to leave is the flagship.
On the flagship, Arwen stood on the bow deck, first closing his eyes and enjoying the sun and sea breeze, first trying to calm his mood a little.
Well, Your Majesty sent me to the Empire of Light, in fact, to break me apart. lest my stay in the country affect his plans for peace talks.
Alas Yawen shook his head, and the shadow of that stunning face couldn't help but appear in his mind again, he smiled bitterly: "Forget it, what she likes is women, and she is the same as Her Royal Highness the Princess, why should I think about it again" He opened his eyes again, breathed a sigh of relief hard, summoned a henchman, and whispered: "What about those things that were transported on the ship before" "It's under the cabin."
"Okay."
Arwen breathed a sigh of relief.
According to Nitsh's request for him, he secretly took advantage of his position to help Nitis transport a batch of her property in the Roland Continent to the Empire of Light, and at this moment, all the goods had been secretly transported to the flagship's cabin long before departure.
It's almost smuggling.
But Arwen doesn't think so, he's just using his position to do his friend a favor.
"Alright, now that the ship is offshore, please let my friends come out of the cabin, they must be very uncomfortable after being stuffy for so long."
Arwen smiled lightly.
The man under his command immediately took the order, and after a few moments, he brought back a middle-aged man with a nervous face.
The middle-aged man was wearing simple clothes, and when he saw the crown prince, he immediately lowered his head respectfully, and said in a low voice: "I have seen Your Highness" Arwen frowned: "Who are you, Miss Nidis?"
The middle-aged man's face was even more respectful, and he said with a smile: "Our master is not on the ship, she asked me to tell His Royal Highness that she still has some personal affairs in the royal capital, so she will not go back with the ship this time."
Anyway, when the goods arrive in the Bright Continent, there are naturally villains who are responsible for contacting the people there to receive the goods.
The host also said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is always warm-hearted, and he will not disappoint his friends. ” Yawen was stunned, and then his face showed a little unhappiness: "She didn't get on the boat and hummed, this woman actually dared to tease me."
Then he smiled and said, "Okay, since I promised Miss Nice, I will definitely help to the end, well, what else does your master have to do in the royal capital?"
The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "I don't know very well, but I heard that it seems that someone agreed to the master's date, but left the master there alone and waited for a night, and the master was going to go to him to theorize." ” To be continued:
