At this time, the herald came to report: "Your Majesty, the first, second, and third fleets are not in the port. They have gone out on a 'mission at sea'. You see..."

‘Mission at sea’ was especially to escort and receive the Holy Land supply ships.

The pope replied without turning back, "They should have not gone far, transfer them back immediately. It's safe along the ‘high seas’. They don't need three fleets to escort those goods. It's necessary to have respect and sincerity when dealing with a dear old enemy."

"Yes!"

"Return! Close the wings!"

"Escort the fleet and adjust to the southeast direction, pay attention to speed—"

"Eagles! Retreat for the time being. Pull down all defense steel plates of the main ship, drain the water..."

The whole Western fleet quickly gathered together, becoming a closely linked giant, the supply escort fleets that just left the port quickly returned, watching the fierce and fearless Great Liang Navy in front of it, forming a solid defense.

Every time, it was Gu Yun who walked the Westerners. This time, the situation suddenly changed. It became the Westerners that used heavy defense to stop the advance while the Great Liang navy looked for a place to land their teeth.

Two minutes later, Great Liang's mad dog-like advance finally slowed down, apparently exhausted.

The pope: "Jacques, look."

With his voice, he saw a large number of reception and supply fleets coming down from three directions. At last, the trump card of Great Liang could no longer be hidden, its ferocious tusks were exposed in the night.

Master Ja was shocked — if he had just surrounded and eaten Great Liang's advance immediately as he said, the two sides on his end, without the three fleets, would be stretched and weakened by the enemy, and would easily be pierced and torn by Great Liang's ambush!

"I told you," the pope gave him a slightly reprimanding look, "Only by knowing your enemy will you know where your true opportunity is — all fleets ready to fight back! While they are not still, hit them in the head!"

As soon as he spoke, the artillery of the Westerners was pushed out like a tsunami, and the main forces of the third route of Great Liang suffered heavy losses as soon as they clashed with each other. Before they even had time to fight back, the most front-end sea Jiao warships had been sunk one after another.

At a glance, this effective supply almost seemed to have wiped out nearly a quarter of the remaining main force of the Great Liang navy.

The western water fleet was boiling. From the day when Gu Yun took charge of Liangjiang, they had never taken such a large chunk out of him!

However, Gu Yun himself was not as angry and anxious as one would imagine.
