After these words were spoken, Qin Ze did not respond immediately, but instead scrutinized the young naval marshal of Sheng Lu Kingdom in front of him.
This is a cunning person.
After assessing the vast disparity in strength between himself and the enemy, he decisively abandoned the fight and fled. However, when faced with an inescapable pursuit, he decided to surrender.
But now, these seemingly "righteous" words he speaks, which he has risked his life to say, are rather laughable.
Qin Ze pondered for a few moments, then slowly said:
"So it turns out that your Shenglu Kingdom is also subject to others and has no choice but to obey orders."
Lucat was secretly pleased, but his face remained solemn. He nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
"We are on the same continent. As the hegemon, how can our country go against them? In fact, we have already realized our mistake after the South China Sea War."
"But Isabella was furious about the defeat in the South China Sea, and as you know, we chose to withdraw instead of participating in the last battle. As a result, Isabella pressured our Emperor Figus, forcing us to participate in the subsequent war."
"That's why we had to send out our fleet. If it weren't for Isabella's pressure, I don't think we would have met here."
"Sigh, this...this is all beyond our control." Lucate shook his head and sighed helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ze pursed his lips slightly and said:
"So, it seems that the Empress Isabella of the Kingdom of Saris is tyrannical and domineering, able to do whatever she wants on the continent of Leon with her hegemony, and even commanding all the countries on the continent of Leon... Oh right, and the Delta Federation on the continent of Salisno."
As soon as he said those words, Lucate's mind raced.
The conflict has already shifted to the Sasiri Kingdom under his guidance, so now it's time to continue shifting his target. As long as he distances himself from his own country's involvement in this war, perhaps he can turn the tide.
Thinking of this, Lucate said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Then, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "The Delta Federation does not obey Isabella's orders. Their goal has always been to invade your country and make it their colony."
"The Federal Emperor von Palen has rapidly expanded their territory in recent years through a series of wars, and now he wants to develop overseas colonies, so he has temporarily allied with the Kingdom of Saar."
"Furthermore... the same goes for the Kingdom of Hunli. I heard that after the Sea Lion Fleet was defeated, their Emperor Saint East was extremely angry because the commander of the Sea Lion Fleet who died in that battle was his brother-in-law. As a result, Saint East specially dispatched the newly built Giant Whale of Hunli, attempting to destroy all of your country's naval forces."
After saying these words, Lucat pondered to himself:
'Hungarians, you have repeatedly insulted our country... When the Yan people invade your country and wage war, that will be what you deserve.'
'The Delta Federation is expanding rapidly, and in the future it may even go to the Feni Continent to demand a redistribution of territory, or even directly launch a war against the Leon Continent. If the powerful Yan Kingdom were to engage in war with them at this time, it would conveniently eliminate the hidden dangers posed by the Delta Federation.'
Just as Lucat was lost in thought, Qin Ze looked at him and said calmly:
"So, you, the Kingdom of Shenglu, did not come here of your own volition, but were forced to do so by the coercion of the Kingdom of Sari."
Lucat immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
As soon as he finished answering, his eyes darted around, and he continued, "But it is undeniable that we did offend you at the beginning, so we are willing to make amends for it. You only need to make your request, and we will definitely fulfill your request within our capabilities."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ze put down his crossed legs, leaned forward slightly, and stared at Lucat, saying:
"On the condition that you are released?"
Lucate was certainly not foolish enough to agree. In this critical situation, he realized that he had no right to make any demands. In fact, the lives of everyone in the Rose Fleet, including himself, were nothing more than a word from the Yan Emperor.
If he decides to kill, then the Rose Fleet will cease to exist after tonight.
Thinking of this, Lucat bent down and said earnestly:
"Your Majesty, your fleet could easily defeat us. We surrender simply to seek a way to survive."
"As for our Shenglu Kingdom, we have no intention of having any further conflict with your country."
After saying this, Qin Ze shook his head and asked, "Can you represent your country?"
Lucat frowned and did not answer the question immediately. After a brief moment of thought, he took a deep breath and said, "After this battle, your naval strength has been proven."
"Then I believe I can make His Majesty recognize the situation after I return home."
Qin Ze raised an eyebrow and said, "Do you know the final outcome of this battle after your withdrawal?"
Lucate shook his head: "I don't know."
“But I think they have been defeated by your fleet.” Lucate looked up at Qin Ze.
Qin Ze smiled faintly, pointed at Lucat and laughed, "Very clever, you guessed very accurately."
Although the person in front of him had a smile on their face, which made the atmosphere much more relaxed, Lucat's back was breaking out in a cold sweat.
He knew what was behind that smile. The Kingdom of Sa Ri had dispatched the Dawn Fleet and the Pearl Fleet, forces far superior to the Blazing Sun Fleet on its maiden voyage. The Giant Whale Fleet, which accompanied them, was also a formidable navy. Yet, within five days, they had been completely annihilated.
