"Hmm? Heading in the opposite direction? Then this isn't the Delta Federation fleet."

In the sailing Unicorn fleet, Commander-in-Chief James put down the telescope in his hand and muttered to himself.

"Sir, it's most likely not our fleet. They shouldn't be returning at this time." The adjutant beside him also made a judgment.

James thought about it and nodded: "Yes, at this time they should stay near the coast of Yan Country and continue to deter Yan Country."

"So which country's fleet is returning at this time?" The adjutant frowned and touched his chin.

"The federal fleet cannot possibly return. It can only be the Slovenians or the Hungarians..."

"It doesn't matter. They can't be Yan people. We can tell their identities when we get closer." James finally said.

Based on this consideration, he did not change the fleet's sailing route. After sailing for a while, as the distance shortened, he finally figured out the identity of the oncoming fleet.

Sure enough, it was one of the two fleets he had guessed before, the Rose Fleet.

After identifying their identities, James felt a little strange, but he didn't care too much. Although the Rose Fleet belonged to the Shenglu Kingdom, they could only act as vassals in front of the Sari Kingdom.

Since they were on the same route, it was still necessary to contact each other. James immediately ordered:

"Reduce speed and contact the Rose Fleet."

On the opposite side, the Rose Fleet also slowed down its speed. After a while, the two fleets finally came into contact in this sea area.

There was no dispute between the two countries, so the first ship to contact each other was naturally the first to meet, but of course it was Lucat who boarded the Unicorn.

As soon as he got on board, James frowned and said:

"Are you Marshal Lucat of the Rose Fleet?"

Lucat looked serious and said, "Yes."

James looked Lucat up and down. He had long looked down on the Admiral of the Shenglu Kingdom who had escaped during the South China Sea War. Naturally, he would not put on a good face when he saw him now. Therefore, after getting Lucat's answer, he just said indifferently:

"I am James, the fleet commander-in-chief. Her Majesty the Queen has appointed me to go to Yan Country to provide support."

"How far has the war on the front line progressed? Why are you returning at this time?" He asked the two most critical questions directly.

Hearing this, Lucat turned his eyes away from the Army Medal of Honor worn on James' uniform.

A moment ago, after seeing the flags hoisted by the Unicorn Fleet, Lucat had been thinking about how to respond to their inquiries next.

The sudden arrival of the Unicorn Fleet was not what he expected, and he couldn't figure out what the fleet's organization was like, whether it was mainly composed of the navy, or was it transporting the army like the Federal Second Fleet.

After all, the large warships of the Sari Kingdom are all similar in style, and it is really impossible to tell what kind of troops are carried inside.

Now, after seeing the Army Medals of Honor hanging on James' uniform, Lucat had a rough guess in his mind that this Unicorn Fleet was most likely organized in the same way as the Second Federation Fleet, with the army as the main force.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and sighed heavily.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Seeing his expression, James' heart skipped a beat and his brows tightened.

"We... lost." After some deep thought, Lucat decided to tell the truth and now he had to act according to the original plan.

As soon as he finished speaking, James was shocked. He stepped forward and stared at Lucat and asked:

"Are you kidding me? What do you mean by lost?!"

Lucat continued, "The Yan Kingdom's navy is very powerful and we can't match it. Unfortunately, we lost."

After getting confirmation again, James' face changed suddenly, and the rest of the people on the boat were also shocked.

"How far has it come?!" James snapped.

"Almost the entire army was wiped out, with only a small number of people surviving. Now they are imprisoned on the Coral Island by the Yan people and have become prisoners of war." Lucat answered word by word.

The next moment, James suddenly reached out, grabbed his collar, and shouted angrily:

"We lost to this extent?!"

"Yes." Lucat's face was grim, and he tried to push him away.

However, James became even angrier after hearing the answer. His face flushed red as he shouted:

"After fighting to this point, how come your Rose Fleet seems to be unscathed? What on earth is going on?!"

"Don't tell me you deserted the battlefield again and caused our defeat!"

The color on Lucat's face gradually faded. He knew that he would definitely encounter such a rebuke after returning to Leon Continent, but it was just a little early now.

The arrogant and domineering Japanese people wouldn't care about so many things.

And now, facing James' questioning, Lucat held back his anger and said in a deep voice: "It was a sudden encounter and had nothing to do with us."

"The reason why we..."

Before he could finish his words, James, with an angry look on his face, pushed Lucat violently, almost knocking him to the ground. He pointed at Lucat and said angrily:

"You surrender?!"

Lukat stood up shakily, looked up at him expressionlessly and said:

"In that situation, the only option is surrender."

As soon as he finished speaking, James roared: "Boneless!"

"It must be your surrender that caused..."

"Enough!" Lukat suddenly roared, "You are not an eyewitness, so you have no right to criticize our decision!"

"If you don't surrender, all the fleets on this voyage will be annihilated!"

"And those who are captured on the coral island will all be killed without a single one left!"

"If we don't come back, you won't even have a chance to redeem the captives!"

Hearing this, James was so angry that he almost wanted to draw the sword hanging at his waist, but the adjutant stepped forward and whispered to comfort him:

"Sir, the culprits are the Yan people. There is no point in blaming them now."

James then forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, but his eyes were fixed on Lucat.

Lukat then added: "The Yan people let us go, of course we paid a huge price, we will pay them compensation, and your people are still on the coral island, and they also need to be redeemed after negotiating the compensation."

"Damn it!!!" James punched the air, his face distorted with rage.

Lucat was also furious. He certainly wanted to lure these Sajids to their deaths, but if he really did that, he would not be able to return home with his fleet, and the Sajids would immediately vent all their anger on his own country.

For now, we can only accept their criticism, but given the nature of the Isaacs, they will definitely come back again, and the Yan people will never end the war so hastily.

The next war will surely intensify. At this moment, he looked at James with a stern face, and gradually felt expectant in his heart.
