It has to be said that Lucat's words did shake some people's determination. The current situation is not clear, and this is not at home. They have their own country to rely on. If the situation is unfavorable, it will not be a good thing for them on this vast sea.

But those whose determination had been shaken were unable to speak out in agreement. After all, the only three countries that had the final say at the table were Shenglu, Hungary, and the Delta Federation. If the people of Shenglu wanted to leave, it would depend on whether the other two agreed.

Muller took a step forward, his tall body almost leaning against the edge of the table, his eyes drooping and indifferent as if covered with a layer of frost. He stared at Lukat and uttered in his usual emotionless voice:

"You've been very thoughtful."

Lucat thought he would refute, but he never expected that Mueller would agree with him.

'It seems that he is also a stable man,' Lucat thought.

But Mueller's next words immediately let Lucat know that he still overestimated him. He just heard him say coldly:

"As a soldier, you have a mission assigned by your emperor, so you should do your best to complete it, instead of being afraid of fighting with this excuse."

"Perhaps this is the difference between us Golts and you Shenglu people." Muller turned his eyes away from Lucat, who had a rather ugly expression on his face. He glanced at everyone at the table and continued:

"The people from Sari are coming too slowly."

"As the promoter of this military activity, their advance preparations were not sufficient at all and they fell behind us, causing us to have to wait here in vain."

"Although Daqian's warships are already patrolling the coast, it does not necessarily mean that there are more ships in their port. All previous speculations are just conjectures. You arrived ahead of time, but you didn't even dare to go and investigate."

Having said this, his eyes fixed on Augustus' face.

Augustus' face felt hot from the sharp look, but he still stared at her and said:

"Your Federation Fleet has been here for three days, and you haven't done anything!"

Mueller said expressionlessly, "That's because you said the day before yesterday that people from the Sari Kingdom would soon arrive, so we had to wait a while."

"But now they haven't arrived yet, but someone already wants to take the fleet away." He looked at Lucat again.

Augustus noticed this look and immediately started to attack:

"The people from the Sari Kingdom haven't arrived yet, and you want to go back! Do you look down on Queen Isabella's fleet or are you too afraid of the Daqian navy?"

"Speak! Lucat!"

Lucat sighed inwardly.

In the land of Leon, Shenglu Kingdom is at most as strong as Sari Kingdom. How could he not know the naval power of Sari Kingdom?

However, due to the errors in the known intelligence during this trip to Daqian, the operation was destined to deviate from the plan. If they had known that Daqian had so many warships, then at the beginning, all countries would have sent more warships.

Now it is obvious that everyone has underestimated Daqian's navy. Although the Sari Kingdom has not arrived yet, there is no doubt that they are also unaware of the situation, so it is expected that the number of warships they send will not be too many.

Thus, among all the countries that came to Daqian this time, only the Delta Federation's fleet brought out more warships than expected. Together with the Sari fleet that arrived later, all the ships added together, Lucat guessed that there were about a thousand ships.

Of course, this is an apparently extremely large number, and it is also an extremely terrifying force.

However, this "terrible force" can only exert less than 70% of its strength on a real battlefield, or even less than half. The reason is very simple. These warships are not owned by one country, but by multiple countries. It has no cohesion at all.

Although it cannot be said that they are a complete mess, this is enough to be fatal on the battlefield.

Ultimately, it was because of the huge intelligence errors. The serious erroneous intelligence caused the plan to completely deviate from its direction. Looking at the patrol ships patrolling the coast continuously, Lucat had reason to believe that this strange country was currently in a "state of combat readiness."

"State of combat readiness" - the meaning behind this cannot but make people vigilant.

This means that those foreign ministers who previously went there in the name of “making friends” are now most likely to have become “captives”.

Although there was absolutely no intelligence to support this speculation, Lucat still came to this conclusion based on his intuition and his assessment of the current situation.

He even thought that the man named "Jin Jianzhong" was a bait deliberately released by Daqian, but it seemed a little wrong. After all, he had witnessed the strength of these countries on the Leon continent. Under such circumstances, he had no reason to do such a thing.

There is only one possibility, another force has appeared in this strange country.

It was the emergence of this force that caused the serious deviation of intelligence, and at the moment it seemed that this sudden increase in power had indeed reached a level that made people fearful.

For this reason, launching a naval battle in this unfamiliar waters without any intelligence and without knowing the truth is definitely not a good choice. After all, this is Daqian's home ground.

The people of this country know this place better, and they have the territorial support behind them, which is enough to make their strength continue to grow. As for us who have come across the ocean, even if the country we rely on is very strong, distant water cannot quench nearby fire.

Once the situation becomes unfavorable, it will tilt in an unacceptable direction.

Lucat felt a little regretful.

All the people in front of them were determined to conquer Daqian, but there was nothing they could do about it. According to the previously known information, Daqian was a country with a vast territory and a large population, but its military strength was not strong.

Based on this information, people in these big countries have already formed stereotypes, and it is indeed difficult to ask them to retreat now.

"marshal."

"Once the people from Sari arrive, we can go together. There will be absolutely no problem." Deputy General Leto bent down and whispered in Lucat's ear.

Lucat sighed inwardly. "Well, everyone thinks so."

'Am I really worrying too much?'

Just as he was thinking this, Augustus shouted again: "What are you mumbling about?"

Lucat shook his head, moved his lips and said:

"We are discussing whether we should go to Nangang immediately when the people from Sari arrive, or should we send a ship over first to inquire about the situation."

"We should have done this a long time ago." Muller responded indifferently.

Then he looked at a person at the table. He was a naval commander of a small country. He didn't know his name, but he was an insignificant person.

The person being stared at immediately fell into panic, but he had no right to refute.
