The Yan Kingdom and the Great Zhou Dynasty have always maintained sincere relations and a close relationship.

But today's battle was so bizarre that even the mighty Yan Kingdom general Sun Zhengming was baffled.

The idea that you don't have to do anything but stay here and collect your loot is utterly ridiculous.

If the Great Zhou Dynasty were to suffer a complete defeat, he would become a laughingstock. The thought of this made Sun Zhengming feel suffocated.

However, he had no other choice but to patiently continue waiting.

His eyes seemed to pierce through the sea, yet there was still no movement. Sun Zhengming gradually became restless.

"Seriously, if there's no further movement, we'll withdraw our troops."

Sun Zhengming finally uttered a complaint out of impatience, ready to issue a retreat order at any moment.

Just as Sun Zhengming was cursing, the fog on the sea suddenly became much thicker, to the point that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

He glanced down at his watch; it was almost seven o'clock.

They had been in this area for almost an hour, no wonder Sun Zhengming was getting impatient.

Fortunately, the dense fog that Lin Fan had described finally appeared, and Sun Zhengming dared not delay any longer.

Yang Xia glanced at his watch; the time was pointing to the moment he had set. He immediately called Meng Yin and Meng Yu.

"You shall immediately order all soldiers to board the armored and reinforced ships."

Following the previous plan, Yang Xia instructed the soldiers to board these heavily armored ships and approach the target silently.

Their ships are armored and reinforced, making them as sturdy as nanomaterials.

The only drawback is that the equipment on board is relatively outdated and still lags behind that of the Nebula Kingdom.

That's why Yang Xia was particularly interested in the two fleets of the Nebula Kingdom; their weapons were truly excellent.

Yang Xia absolutely couldn't bear to use the tower defense cannon to blast them to pieces; that would be a complete waste.

"You will divide these ships into two small teams, left and right, and move toward the target on the sea. You are absolutely not allowed to fire a single shot."

"Remember, your mission now is to silently board the two fleets of the Nebula Kingdom, capture them all alive, and thus successfully seize all the spoils of war."

This operation was of great importance, and Yang Xia repeatedly gave them instructions, fearing that they might make the slightest mistake.

Upon receiving the order, Meng Yin and Meng Yu frowned deeply, their faces immediately showing a troubled expression, feeling that this was simply an impossible task.

"Your Majesty, you must be joking. We probably can't even get close to the Nebula Kingdom's fleet."

"Yes, Your Majesty, all of the ships of the Nebula Kingdom are equipped with sonar detection equipment. Even the slightest sound could give us away."

The two generals hurriedly explained the difficulties of this move to Yang Xia, hoping that he would rescind his order.

As generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they were supposed to obey any order unconditionally, but faced with such an almost impossible command, they had to question it.

"I knew you would have all sorts of concerns. Don't worry, I will never send you to your deaths."

"Just follow my instructions, and I guarantee the mission will be accomplished."

Yang Xia solemnly assured the two that he never fought a battle unprepared.

The two were stunned and had no choice but to accept the order.

They all felt that the king's behavior today was very unusual, but they dared not press him too much.

Yang Xia was, after all, the ruler of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they had no choice but to obey him unconditionally.

But such orders were really hard for them to handle, and they felt that something was wrong with what was happening today.

Every decision Yang Xia made seemed illogical to them.

Given the dire situation, instead of using tower defense cannons, they were allowed to secretly land on the Nebula Kingdom's fleet.

Knowing that the enemy's weapons were so advanced, and that they would be discovered before they even got close, they would become sitting ducks.

Meng Yin and Meng Yu reluctantly accepted the mission and prepared to set off.

"Soldiers, move quickly! Remember, do not fire a single shot or cannon, and quietly approach the enemy."

The two had no choice but to follow Yang Xia's orders and relay them to their subordinate soldiers.

The soldiers dared not speak out in anger, their brows furrowed.

They even felt that this battle was simply a suicide mission.

Instead of using advanced weapons like tower defense cannons, they were forced to become human cannonballs, which inevitably caused some soldiers to harbor resentment.

But since it was the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty who gave the order, no one dared to disobey it easily.

So they all boarded the heavily armored ships and quietly headed toward their target.

Despite the thick fog obscuring their view, they remained uneasy—the sonar detection equipment on the Nebula Kingdom's ships was extremely terrifying.

Even on a turbulent sea, the slightest movement cannot escape detection.

This is precisely what everyone is most worried about: once they are discovered, they will all be finished.

Although their ships were reinforced with armor, their weaponry was inferior to that of the Nebula Nation.

Once a firefight breaks out, they will definitely not gain any advantage.

Moreover, the closer they got to each other, the more nervous they became.

Yang Xia had already made all the arrangements, and of course he wouldn't let his people die in vain.

Although the fog was now extremely thick, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face, Yang Xia was still not entirely satisfied.

Next, he will use the weather controller again to ensure that all aspects meet the operational requirements.

Seeing that the soldiers had already set sail, he went back into the room.

Yang Xia entered the room where the weather controller was stored once again, and he had mastered the use of this treasure.

He immediately activated the fog button, setting it to the lowest visibility level.

Meanwhile, strong winds raged across the sea, making the environment extremely harsh.

"Let the winds and rain rage on!"

Yang Xia pressed the button for gale and torrential rain, and instantly a gale arose on the sea, followed by a downpour.

Even so, Yang Xia was still not satisfied and turned the temperature down to an extremely low level.

Due to the sudden drop in temperature, the rainwater instantly froze into an ice shell, encasing their ships.

"Now, all their high-end weapons are unusable and have become scrap metal."

Yang Xia understood that the smooth surface of the ice layer would reduce the sensitivity of the sonar detection system, or even severely interfere with it and cause it to malfunction.

No wonder he ruthlessly set the temperature so low; it was precisely to make the sea freeze quickly.

The two fleets from Nebula Kingdom were already fast asleep. They only noticed the sudden drop in temperature and wrapped their blankets tighter, completely unaware of the approaching danger.

Their advanced detection equipment made them feel emboldened, believing that the detection system would sound an alarm immediately if any danger approached.

This is why the Nebula Kingdom neglected its defenses.

They even abandoned the habit of keeping watch at night, as lying comfortably in the cabin was of course the most comfortable thing to do.

Since the advanced weapons were put into use, there has never been any accident.

Habits become second nature, to the point that one is completely unaware of what is happening in the outside world.

Sometimes, good things can turn into bad things, and bad things can turn into good things.

If their detection equipment weren't so advanced, they would have arranged for people to keep watch at night, and wouldn't have been unaware of what was happening before their eyes.

Meng Yin and Meng Yu were puzzled: they were already very close, and despite the thick fog, they had reached the edge of the other fleet.

Their ships were encased in a smooth layer of ice, and Meng Yin and Meng Yu finally realized that the enemy's detection system had malfunctioned.

The two were secretly delighted, and at the same time, they admired Yang Xia immensely. Their ruler was simply like a god; every outcome he achieved was beyond their expectations.

Actually, this wasn't the first time they'd encountered a similar dangerous situation, and each time they'd managed to escape unscathed.

Recalling their hesitant attitude just now, they even felt somewhat ashamed.

Their king never disappoints; from now on, they just need to obediently carry out orders.

However, even though they successfully boarded the Nebula Kingdom's ship, they still dared not let their guard down.

They boarded the ship cautiously and found that the people were still fast asleep.

The weather suddenly turned cold, so they wrapped themselves tightly in their blankets and slept even more soundly.

"Don't move! Put your hands up!"

When the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty tied all these people up, some of them were still not fully conscious.

"What exactly happened? How did they get up here?"

These people suddenly realized they had been trapped, but they couldn't understand why such advanced sonar detection equipment hadn't reacted at all.
After the cleanup was completed, Meng Yu discovered that Thomas was among them, and she was finally relieved.

"Damn it! How did you log in?"

Thomas's eyes were practically spitting fire; he was furious and knew he had fallen for someone's scheme.

After a series of actions, Meng Yu and Meng Yin managed to bind everyone on both fleets together.

Not a single soldier of the Great Zhou Dynasty was injured, and they captured all the people of Xingyun Kingdom. This battle was truly brilliant.

"Your Majesty is truly a brilliant strategist! We have indeed successfully captured them alive."

Meng Yu immediately called Yang Xia to share the good news.

"That's right, everything is going according to plan."

Yang Xia, however, remained unusually calm, seemingly unsurprised, which made Meng Yu even more incredulous.

Then, Yang Xia immediately called Sun Zhengming.

"Brother Sun, everything is settled. Come and collect your spoils along the planned route."

Yang Xia easily created a thick fog when setting the weather, but it will take some time to remove it.

No wonder he made them plan their routes in advance.

"What? You actually got hold of those two fleets?"

Sun Zhengming was furious and had nowhere to vent his anger. Just as he was about to complain, he heard this news.

"That's right, and without losing a single soldier, those two fleets are ours now."

Yang Xia proudly announced the result, leaving Sun Zhengming speechless with astonishment.

"How could this be... This is completely illogical."

Shocked, Sun Zhengming simply couldn't accept this outcome.

As a seasoned general, he had never encountered such a bizarre situation—capturing the two elite fleets of the Nebula Kingdom without losing a single soldier.

"Indeed, that's absolutely impossible."

The adjutant beside him was equally incredulous upon hearing the battle report; it was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

However, Sun Zhengming reconsidered and felt that Yang Xia was indeed a mysterious and unpredictable person. Although he had not yet confirmed it with his own eyes, the fact that the fog at sea was so thick that one could not see their own hand in front of their face was enough to tell that he was no ordinary person.

If all of this is true, then Yang Xia is no longer an ordinary person, but almost a god.

"Full speed ahead! I need to see for myself if this result is true."

To verify the truth of Yang Xia's words, Sun Zhengming immediately ordered the fleet to advance at full speed.

"General, the fog is too thick, and the visibility is extremely low."

The subordinates hurriedly reported that the ship's speed could not be increased at all in this weather.

"Oh no! I forgot all of Yang Xia's instructions..."

"So there was a deeper meaning behind him asking me to draw the route map. He was truly a brilliant strategist!"

Sun Zhengming gasped, his heart sinking as he knew he was in deep trouble.

Previously, because he didn't believe Yang Xia's words at all, he ignored all of Yang Xia's advice.

Now, in such terrible weather, he was completely dumbfounded—without the correct navigation map, he could run aground at any moment.

"Now that things have come to this, let's move forward at full speed."

Sun Zhengming had no choice but to bite the bullet and give the order to continue driving in the normal direction.

Although the speed was much slower than before, we just hoped not to hit the rocks; we couldn't worry about anything else at the moment.

"General, something terrible has happened! A ship has run aground!"

As expected, due to the lack of a correct course, two ships soon ran aground.

"Quickly! Do everything you can to repair it; we absolutely cannot allow it to sink!"

Sun Zhengming directed everyone to make emergency repairs, and the scene immediately descended into chaos.

He ended up looking disheveled and utterly humiliated.

After Mengyin and Mengyu had taken control of the enemy personnel, they prepared to escort the spoils of war back to port.

But to be honest, without assistance, dealing with the situation becomes extremely difficult.

After all, there were quite a few prisoners on both fleets, and according to Yang Xia's original plan, Sun Zhengming should have come to take over.

But Meng Yin and his men waited for a long time and still couldn't find Sun Zhengming, so they had no choice but to clean up the battlefield themselves.

Meanwhile, Sun Zhengming's side was in complete chaos, frantically ordering his subordinates to repair the ships.

Those ships were riddled with holes and patched up in many places.

Nevertheless, he still had to prevent the cabins from flooding, otherwise he would suffer heavy losses and destroy the ships.

Sun Zhengming had experience in this area and was determined to save the ships no matter what.

This mistake has already embarrassed him greatly, as it was all due to his own negligence that caused the situation to be stalled.

If we had listened to Yang Xia's arrangements earlier, we wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament.

It's too late for regrets now; all we can do is patch things up and barely keep sailing.

By the time they rushed to the designated sea area, the battlefield had already been cleaned up.

The sea was empty, leaving no trace.

"General, is that man playing a trick on us?"

Looking at the vast sea, his subordinate couldn't help but wonder.

"It seems to be true... the Nebula Kingdom's fleet has disappeared."

Sun Zhengming finally acknowledged the truth, and a wave of regret washed over him.

If only I had known this would happen, I would have carefully drawn up the flight path map; all of this could have been avoided.

"General, what should we do now?"

The subordinates were dumbfounded; none of them had expected the outcome to come true.

Yang Xia's strength is truly astonishing.

"Turn around and head towards the port of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Sun Zhengming reluctantly gave the order; for now, he could only see Yang Xia first—he insisted on witnessing it with his own eyes. (End of Chapter)
