The entire ship was thrown into chaos, the crew panicked and disorganized.

They had no time to deal with the Chinese fleet; self-preservation was their top priority.

Seeing this, Sun Zhengming said with a face full of joy, "That's amazing... I really didn't expect the modified composite armor to be so powerful."

"I am truly in awe of Yang Xia's wisdom. It seems that the Red Cake Kingdom will be disappointed this time, and their plan to block the Chinese fleet will fail."

After Sun Zhengming rammed the Red Cake Kingdom's ships, his own ships remained completely undamaged.

He left with a smile, while Okada, furious, watched the Chinese fleet sail away, raging with rage yet utterly helpless.

"Damn it... I never expected the Chinese fleet's ships to be so sturdy, completely undamaged. How did this happen?" Okada roared angrily, clearly unable to accept the result.

At this moment, Okada, the commander of the Red Cake Kingdom, who was standing on the deck, witnessed this scene and was so angry that he almost fainted.

He could hardly believe that the Chinese fleet had escaped so easily and had even severely damaged one of their large ships.

Okada had no time to worry about anything else. If he couldn't stop the Chinese fleet from leaving this time, he wouldn't be able to answer to Akagi-kun, the leader of the Red Cake Kingdom, since he had already made a pledge to Akagi-kun.

If he could not turn the situation around, he would have no choice but to commit seppuku to atone for his sins. Thinking of this, Okada was extremely anxious.

His face immediately contorted with rage, and he ordered his lieutenant, "From now on, ignore this ship!"

"Charge straight in and strike first. We must not let the Chinese fleet leave so easily, and we must not let them leak the news of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Seeing Okada's fury, the lieutenant asked with concern, "Commander... is what we're doing really feasible? Could there be any danger?"

Okada glared angrily and roared at his adjutant, "Danger? If we can't stop the Chinese fleet from leaving, that's our greatest danger!"

"How are we supposed to explain this to our leader, Akagi-kun? Are we supposed to commit seppuku in front of him? That's the greatest danger!"

"What are you afraid of? Anyway, we're not flying any flags, so nobody knows which faction we belong to. Just do as I say!"

"If we don't act now, it will be too late once the Chinese fleet leaves. What are you still hesitating for?"

After listening to Okada's instructions and carefully considering them, the lieutenant general felt that Okada's words made sense.

Since we're going to die anyway, we might as well fight to the death here; perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope.

The vice admiral nodded in agreement and immediately arranged for other ships to give chase to the remaining fleet.

However, Sun Zhengming had planned all of this in advance. When he saw the Red Cake Kingdom fleet chasing after them, a cold smile appeared on his lips, and he said confidently, "Fools... what a bunch of stupid guys, chasing after us at this time, aren't they just courting death?"

"Fine... Since you're relentlessly pursuing me, I won't hold back any longer."

"This time, I'm going to show the Red Cake Nation the power of the Chinese fleet and teach them a lesson they won't forget!"

"Guards... From this moment forward, the Chinese fleet will split into two smaller teams, one on the left and one on the right."

"Charge the oncoming fleet from both the left and right sides. I want to see just how sturdy the Red Cake Kingdom's fleet is."

Upon receiving Sun Zhengming's order, the Chinese fleet quickly split to the left and right, slowly sailing to both sides, quietly awaiting the arrival of the Red Cake Kingdom's fleet.

As the Red Cake Kingdom fleet approached, at Sun Zhengming's command, the ships of the Chinese fleet did not hesitate to ram the Red Cake Kingdom fleet from both sides.

"Bang bang..."

The deafening roars were incredibly exciting.

Commander Okada of the Red Cake Kingdom never expected the Chinese fleet to take such action. The entire Red Cake Kingdom fleet was thrown into chaos, with screams erupting everywhere.

Those who had been standing on the beach watching the Chinese fleet depart were filled with admiration upon seeing how valiant the fleet was.

"My goodness... I never expected the Sun Navy to be so formidable. It seems he has complete confidence in the ships that His Majesty has modified!"

"Yes... otherwise he wouldn't have used this method against the Red Cake Kingdom's fleet at this time. He's obviously using them as practice!"

"However, Sun Shuishi is really bold, treating the ships like bumper cars. I reckon the commander of the Red Cake Kingdom must be completely dumbfounded right now. He's utterly helpless, hahaha!"

……

The people on the shore were talking excitedly, while the sound of ships colliding at sea was like firecrackers, one after another.

From the day the Chinese fleet arrived on the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they were subjected to all sorts of difficulties by the Red Cake Kingdom even before they disembarked. Although they suppressed their anger at the time, it seems they also wanted to take this opportunity to make up for their previous failure to take action.

Another thunderous crash echoed, and everyone gasped in alarm once more. A ship without a flag was spinning, seemingly on the verge of sinking.

The crew members chattered incoherently and jumped off the ship in a frantic rush, like dumplings being dropped into boiling water, creating an extremely chaotic scene.

Originally, Meng Yin had been following Yang Xia's instructions to escort the Huaxia fleet in case the Three Kingdoms Alliance made any unusual moves. However, he was also taken aback by Sun Zhengming's actions.

But seeing the fate of the Red Cake Kingdom's fleet, Meng Yin couldn't help but smile with delight.

He thought to himself, "It seems that this Chinese fleet is not to be trifled with, and they hold grudges. They don't need our protection at all; this one move is truly awe-inspiring."

Such a breathtaking scene naturally attracted the attention of many fishermen in the surrounding area, who were all quite shocked.

After all, they had never seen such an incredible scene before. At this moment, the entire Chinese fleet, after being modified by Yang Xia, was made of alloy plates, as if it were wearing a layer of sturdy armor.

It would be a piece of cake for them to ram the Red Cake Nation's fleet.

Sun Zhengming, the representative of the Chinese fleet, witnessed the modified ships ramming and wrecking the Red Cake Kingdom's ships, and a surprised smile appeared on his face. He excitedly said, "This is wonderful! I never expected this!"

"Our fleet has become so powerful after the modifications. It seems that Okada of the Red Cake Kingdom is going to suffer a great deal this time."

"He has been repeatedly defeated by our Chinese fleet, and I'm afraid he will have a hard time explaining himself to their leader."

Sun Zhengming was beaming with excitement, his admiration for Yang Xia evident in his words.

He also witnessed Yang Xia's extraordinary talent and wisdom. An ordinary fleet, after being transformed by Yang Xia, became indestructible, which was something he had never expected.

Soon, the ships of the Red Cake Kingdom were rammed into pieces by the Chinese fleet. The damaged ships took on water one after another, and the crew members jumped into the sea to escape. Screams rose and fell, and the scene was chaotic.

The crew members of the Chinese fleet were thrilled to hear the wailing and howling of the Red Cake Kingdom crew.

"Great... This time we can teach the Red Pancake Nation a lesson and show them the power of the Chinese fleet."

"They actually want to station themselves here and have repeatedly made things difficult for our Chinese fleet. If we don't teach them a lesson, they'll really think our Chinese fleet is easy to bully."

"Let them learn a lesson, and perhaps next time the Chinese fleet is mentioned, they will be terrified."

"Yeah...it's so satisfying to think about. Seeing them in such a sorry state is just so enjoyable."

The crew of the Chinese fleet cheered and made sarcastic remarks to the disheveled crew of the Red Cake Country.

Seeing the crew's excitement, Sun Zhengming couldn't bear to dampen their morale.

After all, the high morale of the crew is a good sign for the entire fleet.

Commander Okada of the Red Cake Nation was also caught off guard by this situation.

Remembering the pledge he made to Akagi, the leader of the Red Cake Kingdom, to turn the tide, and now finding himself in such a predicament, Okada was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, pacing back and forth. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead as he anxiously said, "How could this be? How could the Chinese fleet be so powerful?"

"There must be something fishy about this. Could it be related to Yang Xia?"

"No... I can't let the situation continue like this. I made a pledge to Akagi-kun. If I can't stop this, I'll be in big trouble."

Okada was so anxious that he cried out, completely unprepared for the Chinese fleet's powerful offensive.

In a moment of desperation, Okada immediately ordered his lieutenant: "Pass down the order immediately, do everything possible to retreat!"

"We can no longer engage the Chinese fleet head-on, or we will be completely annihilated."

"Not only can I not turn the tide, but I also won't be able to explain this to Akagi-kun."

Upon hearing this, the lieutenant hurriedly ran out, but the scene before him made him panic.

He nervously told Okada, "Commander... most of our ships are now damaged and taking on water."

"The ships could sink at any moment, and there was no way to retreat. Only a small number of ships were still able to carry out orders."

Upon hearing this, Okada nearly went insane.

His eyes widened in anger, and he gritted his teeth as he said, "Retreat...retreat by any means necessary!"

"We have suffered such heavy losses that even a small portion of the fleet must carry out my orders immediately."

The lieutenant nodded slowly, looking helpless.

Under Okada's orders, a small portion of the Red Cake Kingdom's fleet retreated in disarray.

This was an exhilarating scene; the Chinese fleet defeated the Red Cake Kingdom's fleet without suffering any losses.

Seeing the Red Cake Kingdom fleet retreat in disarray, Sun Zhengming smiled with satisfaction.

"Damn it...you ran away pretty fast. Doesn't it feel good to slink away like that?"

"Since you have repeatedly made things difficult for the Chinese fleet, this is my 'gift' to you. Please enjoy it."

"It's because your Red Cake Kingdom is too arrogant and conceited that you have to suffer a bit."

Mengyin reported the situation on the sea to Yang Xia one by one, and he was slightly excited as he spoke.

He even embellished the story somewhat. After finishing his account, Meng Yin looked at Yang Xia with hope and asked, "Given the current situation at sea, should we intervene to rescue them?"

"I would like to consult Your Majesty on this matter and see how to proceed."

After hearing Meng Yin's report, a smile also appeared on Yang Xia's face.

According to Meng Yin, the Chinese fleet has passed through smoothly without any obstruction.

This was the thing that made Yang Xia most happy, but he could not ignore the situation on the sea.

After a moment of contemplation, he looked up at Meng Yin and said, "Well then... we can't just sit idly by. It's the Red Cake Kingdom that made the mistake."

“It wasn’t these crew members sent by the Red Cake Country; they were just following orders. This matter has nothing to do with them.”

"It would be unfair to them to lose their lives over this."

"Moreover, the conflict between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Red Cake Kingdom has not yet escalated, nor has it gone to war. We should still show them the humanitarian concern we need."

After hearing Yang Xia's explanation, Meng Yin immediately understood his intention.

In fact, Meng Yin had already anticipated that Yang Xia would not be able to bear seeing these crew members suffer.

He didn't want them to suffer this calamity, so he came to ask Yang Xia for instructions, and sure enough, everything was as he expected.

In the end, Yang Xia still had good intentions and asked Meng Yin to rescue the crew members. Meng Yin understood Yang Xia's meaning.

He nodded slowly and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured... I know how to proceed."

"I will send people to rescue these crew members as soon as possible and do our best to save their lives."

Yang Xia nodded in satisfaction, and Meng Yin hurriedly left to arrange manpower without stopping.

Boats were quickly deployed to rescue those who had fallen into the water as quickly as possible.

Even so, the accident still resulted in the deaths of nearly thirty crew members of Hong Bingguo's crew.

Although the losses were heavy, it was all Red Cake Country's own fault, and they had no one else to blame.

Looking at the scene before him, Meng Yin shook his head helplessly and said, "It seems that the Chinese fleet really showed no mercy this time, causing such great losses to the Red Cake Country."

"Not only were a large number of ships destroyed, but more than 30 crew members also lost their lives, which is truly unbelievable."

"If it weren't for the King's secret assistance, the Chinese fleet probably wouldn't be so powerful."

"The Red Cake Nation has repeatedly provoked the Chinese fleet, and this time it has brought shame upon itself."

After rescuing the crew members, Meng Yin came to see Yang Xia again.

"Your Majesty...we have done everything in our power to search for and rescue the crew members who fell into the water, and they have been brought back."

"I wonder what should be done with the crew of the Red Cake Country, and what should be done with them next."

Upon hearing Meng Yin's question, Yang Xia looked up and instructed, "Now that they have been rescued, make sure they are properly settled in the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"By the way... you will serve as the envoy of my Great Zhou Dynasty for this matter."

"We need to go to Red Cake Country as soon as possible to inform them to come and pick us up. We can't leave them here indefinitely."

"Your trip there will be a good opportunity to see what the Red Cake Kingdom has to say and to gather some information."

Mengyin thought Yang Xia's arrangement was indeed a good idea.

The Red Cake Kingdom suffered heavy losses this time, which will surely cause quite a stir, and Meng Yin was also filled with curiosity.

It remains to be seen how Okada will explain this defeat to Akagi, the leader of the Red Cake Kingdom.

He had many guesses and thoughts in his mind, and everyone thought that Okada, the commander of the Red Cake Kingdom, deserved his punishment.

Because of his cruel and insidious methods, he has brought this upon himself.

Mengyin respectfully said to Yang Xia, "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty... I will certainly live up to your expectations and complete the task assigned by Your Majesty."

"I will do my best and try every possible way to find out information."

"With such a major event occurring in the Red Cake Kingdom, there will surely be much discussion, and the leader of the Red Cake Kingdom, Akagi-kun, will definitely take some action."

Yang Xia and Meng Yin discussed the matter carefully, exploring how to proceed. (End of Chapter)
