Lucat did not leave Coral Island with his soldiers until the following morning when the tide reached its highest point.
This time they did not bring enough supplies, only to notify the people on the island. Therefore, they will continue to send supplies to the island by small boats. Currently, the three factions on the island are in a brief period of peace.
After returning to the Rose Fleet, Lucat did not rest. Instead, he waited until the morning and immediately sent a request to the Yan Kingdom fleet, which was also at sea, hoping to meet their emperor.
After the soldiers relayed the message, Lucate boarded the Dinghai again in a small boat.
Unlike his last visit to the Dinghai, Lucat was not too nervous when he stepped onto the deck this time. He walked with his head held high and his steps were steady. He no longer hung his head down, but instead seemed to be back on his own ship.
Soon, he saw Qin Ze on the deck.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Lucate did not forget the proper etiquette and bowed deeply.
"Yes, get up." Qin Ze said calmly, sitting upright in his chair.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Lucate slowly rose to his feet.
"How did things go?" Qin Ze asked slowly, noticing the bloodshot eyes in Lucat's eyes, knowing he must have spent the night on the island without sleep.
“His Majesty’s words have been fully conveyed to the people on the island, and arrangements have been made for their survival,” Lucate replied.
Qin Ze nodded slightly and casually asked, "What was their attitude? Did they thank me?"
This was a very pointed question, and Lucate was momentarily at a loss for words. Qin Ze, however, frowned and then asked, "Hmm?"
Lucat's face darkened, and he decided to answer truthfully:
"It seems... no." After saying that, he carefully observed Qin Ze's expression.
But to everyone's surprise, Qin Ze smiled and said casually, "These guys, even if they're prisoners of war, they're still resentful."
Lucat said in a deep voice, "They will be convinced."
Qin Ze nodded slightly: "It doesn't matter, I don't care."
"Now that this matter is resolved, you should be heading back soon, right? Have you set a time? When are you going back?"
Lucat shook his head: "It will probably take a while longer."
Qin Ze frowned, then smiled and said, "Oh? I thought you were in a hurry to go back to China."
Lucat said with a solemn expression:
That's right.
“Your Majesty, after I landed on the island last night, I learned something very important from the Gothic commander, Edman.”
"What is it?" Qin Ze stared at Lucat's face.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lucat immediately said in a deep voice, "The Delta Federation's fleet that you defeated this time was their First Fleet."
"And their second fleet is on its way."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ze raised an eyebrow and touched his nose.
"The Second Fleet?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, it was Edman who said it himself. Their battle plan is for the First Fleet to defeat your navy, and then the Second Fleet will follow up to attack the port together, complete the landing operation, and then quickly capture the coastal cities of Yan Kingdom, occupy the cities and set up a line to carry out continuous operations." Lucate looked at Qin Ze and said word by word.
"How did they know the First Fleet could defeat my navy?" Qin Ze asked expressionlessly.
Lucat replied, "That's how the Golts fight; they're always bold and swift. In recent years, they've swept across the entire continent of Salisno, and they have a large number of soldiers available for combat."
"Therefore, they are very confident, believing that with the joint operation of the First Fleet and the Allied Forces, they can defeat your navy in one fell swoop. That's why von Palen was so eager to send the Second Fleet to complete the landing, so as to occupy Yan Kingdom's territory more quickly."
Qin Ze leaned back in his chair and looked at Lucat calmly, saying, "You're not talking nonsense, are you?"
Lucate immediately shook his head, and at the same time took out the gold ring from his pocket and said, "This is a token given to me by Edman. I have not told a single lie."
"If Your Majesty does not believe me, you may bring Edman here for interrogation, and I will confront him."
Looking at the gold ring, Qin Ze pondered for a few moments, then shook his head: "No need."
"You have no reason to deceive me; it won't do you any good."
Luca nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty."
Qin Ze grinned and looked at him, suddenly laughing, "But speaking of which, this is really a... 'unexpected surprise'."
"Heh, the Delta Federation has it all figured out about my country, sending two fleets at once."
"Hmm...we really can't underestimate them."
Upon hearing this, Lucat said, "Your Majesty, according to Edelman, their Second Fleet is not primarily composed of naval forces; the majority of the fleet consists of army units, carrying a large number of land-based weapons."
"The threat level shouldn't be too high."
Qin Ze nodded slightly, without responding.
Seeing that Qin Ze did not seem particularly angry, Lucat hesitated instead. He had thought that Qin Ze would be extremely angry after hearing the news, and would then fly into a rage and kill the Golts on the island.
But now it seems he hasn't reacted much.
What exactly is this Emperor of Yan thinking?
Just as he was deep in thought, Qin Ze suddenly said:
"Although the Delta Federation's Second Fleet poses no threat to us, it doesn't matter if I don't know this intelligence."
"But now that we know in advance that they are on their way, we can make better plans and preparations."
“You did a great job, Lucate.”
"It seems I was right not to treat you as prisoners of war like those others."
Upon hearing this, Lucat was flattered and quickly replied, "This is what we should do."
Qin Ze stood up and said with a smile, "This is not something you should be doing."
"This is extra help."
"Alright, Lucart, you can go back now. As for the people on the island, continue to provide them with assistance as I told you before."
"Once you've finished this, your fleet only needs to return to the continent of Leon."
"As for the continent of Salisno, you don't need to inform Von Palen."
Lucate's heart skipped a beat, and he stammered, "Your Majesty, how will they redeem the Goths on these islands?"
"What do you think?" Qin Ze said with a smile as he walked up to Lucat.
Lucat understood, and he immediately nodded, saying, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Then we won't go to the continent of Salisnor."
"However, Your Majesty, if you ever go to the continent of Salisno in the future, I have a very detailed nautical chart here."
"If you need it, I will go back and bring it to you right away."
Qin Ze patted his shoulder, the smile on his face vanished, and he said with a stern expression:
"good."
"Give it to me."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Lucate replied, but in his heart he thought:
'The Golts are truly doomed now.'
