Joshuel, the Elephant Consul, was dressed in brocade and wore a Valantis hat embroidered with Valantis' long bridge. On his bosom, embroidered with the emblem of the elephant party nobles: a war elephant.

Merchant ships transporting slaves from Valantis docked at the third of the hundreds of docks in Quells.

There are hundreds of docks in Quells, and the five major ports, in addition to the port of Quells, are the exclusive ports of the royal family, the Thirteen Giants, the Tourmaline Brotherhood, and the Ancient Guild of Spices.

The port wharves of Quells City, from the first to the tenth on the far right, were dedicated to the docks of slave ships.

Valantis and Quells had a perennial slave trade, and both made a lot of money.

The slave trading ships that came to Valantis were very popular with the Quells merchants.

Surrounded by the slave traders of Valantis, the Elephant Archon Joshuel entered the city of Quells with hundreds of slaves and a guard. They were welcomed by the local nobility of the slave trade.

This trading caravan of thousands of slaves entered the vast and empty slave market.

The 1,000 slaves in this team were all dressed up as elite soldiers of the Elephant Party and the Tiger Party.

A noble general wearing a spiked helmet and scaly armor arrived, arrogantly conversing with a slave nobleman merchant in the native language. At the recommendation of the merchant, the general came to Joshuel, and he extended his hand to Joshuel: "Welcome, my esteemed guest from afar, I have heard that these slaves are all yours!"

Joshuel smiled, nodded, and reached out to hold the other's forearm, who also reached out to hold his forearm, and the two sides shook each other vigorously to show their affection for the other.

Then, when Joshuel let go, he found that the other party grabbed his arm harder, he was slightly uncomfortable, and was about to remind the other party, when the other general took out a round exquisite brocade box: "Captain Joshuel, this is a gift from me, I hope you can like it, I hope I can establish a long-term slave trade business with Captain Joshuael." Yours and a thousand slaves, I want them all. ”

"Okay! Thank you, General, for your love. Joshuel laughed.

The general let go of his arm, and Joshuel took the brocade box, and at the signal of the general and the slave merchant next to him, he unscrewed the brocade box, and inside the brocade box, a colorful fist-sized manticore-tailed beast stared at Joshuel with a pair of green eyes. Joshuel was taken aback, threw away the brocade box and quickly retreated, the manticore-tailed beast had already jumped up, landed on Joshuel's face, opened its mouth to bite Joshuael's face, and the scorpion-tailed card swung and stabbed into Joshuael's neck.

"Release the raven!" were the only words Joshuel uttered with all his strength before he fell.

Several slave traders and captains who followed him were taken aback and drew their swords. Before the captain of Joshuel's bodyguard could draw his sword, he smashed the raven cage with a single punch, and with a bang, several ravens flew into the sky.

Woohoo!

Several arrows were fired in good time, and one by one they hit the raven, and none of them escaped.

The general and his guards on the opposite side drew their swords at the same time, and the swords flashed, and they fought with the merchants, captains, and guards of Joshuel.

Blood splattered amid the screams.

Joshuel collapsed without feeling the pain, fear gripped his heart, the venom quickly flowed all over his body, his lips turned purple, his face blackened, and he collapsed with a bang, his whole body spasmed.

The manticorer jumped down and sped on the ground, disappearing in an instant

Around the Slave Square, the sound of dense horse hooves sounded very suddenly, and the ambush troops from all directions came out in unison, with two hundred cavalry charging forward on each side, followed by one thousand infantry. The ambush soon surrounded the Slave Guards and a thousand soldiers disguised as slaves in the core of the square, and the cavalry charged, swords and spears unleashed, slashing and stabbing at the soldiers and the 'slaves'.

The three hundred guards formed a circular defensive formation and raised their swords to resist, but they were immediately broken through the four gaps by the enemy's cavalry, and the gaps were removed, and the dense infantry behind them was wrapped up layer by layer. And the 1,000 Elephant and Tiger elites disguised as slaves in the circular defensive array, they had no armor to protect them, and they had no weapons in their hands, and they all became targets for swords and spears with their bare hands.

The hardcover fighters are falling!

The battle ended quickly, and it was a one-sided wanton assault and slaughter.

The cavalry on all sides rushed and twisted, and the circular defense line was completely shattered.

Four thousand infantry and eight hundred cavalry surrounded the armed, only 300 men and armed troops, and slashed and chopped with spears and axes, and none of Joshuaer's legions escaped the net, and they were all killed in the slave square.

The smell of blood filled the sky over the square, and the ground was full of severed limbs, and many Quells cavalry cut off the heads of the Valantis soldiers, stuck them in the tips of their spears, and galloped on their horses, showing off their might.

The square erupted in cheers of victory!

On the dock, several patrol warships slowly approached Joshuel's trading fleet, a group of soldiers jumped on the flagship, the first mate left behind by the flagship and the general disguised as mercenaries hurriedly greeted him, in a very friendly conversation between the two sides, a short knife suddenly stabbed into the general's lower abdomen, the first mate was taken aback, turned around and fled, two swords stabbed in from behind, and pierced through his body.

With a shout, more soldiers jumped from the battleship onto the merchant ships, drawing their swords and slashing. Be it sailors, servants, boatmen, slaves, or ship mercenaries.

Plop plop plop!

The sailors' crew and soldiers dressed as mercenaries could not resist and jumped into the water.

Who knew that on the surface of the sea, there were still long narrow boats waiting for them, the Quells soldiers on the narrow boats were tall and mighty, each holding a long pole, and the long pole was tied with barbed thorns, as long as the crew of the overboard soldier emerged from the water, they were caught by a hook, and they could no longer break free, the narrow boat approached, the long knife was cut off, and the head fell into the water.

After a while, the waters of Pier 3 were red with blood, and the corpses floated on the surface, up and down with the waves.

In the distance, on the spice wharf, on a trading ship, a raven flew low against the water, attracting no one's attention. The spice ship was secretly stationed in the Magic Mountain, without informing the navy, army, and Valantis of the crusade. The captain is Asha Greyjoy, the deputy commander of the Royal Navy secretly sent by Magic Mountain.

When the Joshuel trading fleet docked at the third pier was suddenly attacked and slaughtered, Asha saw it as soon as she stood on the ship, and to be on the safe side, she ordered her fellow apprentices to release the ravens, but the ravens flew out of the sea against the water.

The apprentices who accompanied the ship were specially designed to take care of the ravens, and the Oldtown Academy's apprentices trained ravens with their own unique secrets. The apprentice did what Asha asked, and the raven seemed to understand his request, perhaps a command, and the raven flew away against the water, mingling with the waterfowl on the surface of the sea, and was no longer visible.

On the sea hundreds of miles away, in the southern sea, more than 100 warships dressed as merchant ships were scattered and lined up on the vast sea, moving forward slowly. In order to prevent Quells' patrol boats from running into each other, the fleet and the fleet were kept at a distance from each other. The fleet would approach the waters of the port of Quells in five directions in the evening, and as long as the fire broke out in the city after dark, they would quickly attack the port, burn all the ships in the five ports of Quels, and land to attack.

The five major ports of Quells are home to all of Quells' warships and merchant ships. As long as the ship is burned, Quells's combat power is removed by half. It was impossible for them to escape by water or to find reinforcements. As soon as the ships in the harbor burned, echoing the fires in the city, Quells was bound to be in chaos.

The city of Quells faces the sea on one side, and the red geography on the other, and Quells, who is rich and powerful by the trade of the sea, has a navy far greater than the land combat power. But once the ships are burned, no matter how powerful the navy is, there is no use.

The commander-in-chief of the navy was Count Redwin from Qingting Island, and the deputy commander was the prince from the Midsummer Islands. Earl Redwin was young and competitive, leading twenty naval ships on Qingting Island, and ten Royal Navy warships at the forefront, forming the tip of the knife in this scattered fleet.

The thirty warships of the rear army were commanded by the prince of the Midsummer Islands.

In the middle, there are forty warships in a mixed group. Between the battleships and the battleships, sufficient distance was maintained.

Two miles in front of Count Redwin's flagship, there were three small boats, which were the patrol flotilla of the fleet. All are composed of naval fighters of Qingting Island.

When a raven landed on Earl Redwin's flagship, Earl Redwin noticed a convoy of merchant ships on the left side of the fleet, and the merchant ships were moving at a slow pace, and Count Redwyn did not pay attention. The closer you get to Quells, the more ships will be on the sea. The huge city of Quells, where hundreds of ships come in and out of the harbor every day. 020

And on the flagship of the rear army, the Prince of the Midsummer Islands also spotted that behind the fleet, a group of merchant ships appeared. Those ships were smaller, and the scouts reported that those ships did not hit their heads, not warships, and the Prince of the Midsummer Islands did not take it seriously.

"After leaving the two warships broken, block the opposing merchant ships a little and force them to slow down a little. "The prince is very experienced, and to be careful, he gave the order.

On the flagship at the front, Earl Redwin's bachelor took the letter from the raven's leg, opened it and looked at it, and his face changed.

"What's the matter?" asked the young earl, frowning slightly.

"Asha Greyjoy, Deputy Commander of the Royal Navy, has written that the enemy has slaughtered the members of Joshuel's fleet docked in the harbor, and that Lord Joshuel and his legions who have entered the city may have been wiped out. ”

Redwin stood up suddenly, grabbed the letter, and with a sweep of his gaze, his face changed.

Rumble!

A loud bang.

On the right, a local fishing boat rammed into a battleship, the long, narrow boat, its bow pointed like a dagger, plunging into the middle of the battleship. On the fishing boat, several fishermen jumped into the water.

Not far away, I don't know when, several patrol warships appeared.

"Alert!" Redwin shouted.

"Alert!" the herald immediately ordered.

So, the horn sounded, and the news was passed to the Central Fleet.

I saw more ships in the sea area on the right. It is not clear whether it was a merchant ship or a warship.

On the bow of a battleship stood a general, with a bow and arrow, shooting a rocket, the rocket arced and landed on the fishing boat inserted into the middle of the battleship, and with a bang, the fishing boat burst into flames, and instantly burned into a fireball.

Apparently, the fishing boat was filled with oil.

In the blink of an eye, the battleship was also set on fire.

As the fireworks burned on the sea, Earl Redwin and his men noticed fleets appearing in front, to the left, and to the right, and more and more.

"Artillery ready, fight!" shouted Earl Redwin.

Woooooooooooooooo

The horn on the flagship sounded, this is the horn of battle.

The three scout boats at the front quickly retreated, and behind them, unhurriedly, at least a hundred warships slowly pressed up.

"Transfer two guns to the front, and the remaining eight guns to the sides. Redwing ran to the bow of the ship and shouted.

The herald sent the order up quickly.

"Let the Chinese fleet meet at speed, let the prince's fleet turn around, and prevent the enemy from outflanking. ”

Woooooooooooooooo

The horns of various orders whined and whined on the flagship!

At the sound of the horn of urgent operation, the forty warships of the Chinese fleet quickly caught up.

"Artillery out!" Count Redwin ordered.

Beside him, the matron said, "Lord Earl, put out the artillery now, I'm afraid our artillery shells won't be enough." ”

Count Redwin looked around, and saw that on the waters on three sides, far and near, there were unknown number of warships. There were also many warships in the distance, moving forward like shadows.

Naval combat power, Quells wants to say second, no one dares to say first.

The King's fleet has a thousand warships, the Ancient Spice Guild has more than 1,300 warships, the Thirteen Giants have more than 1,200 warships, and the Tourmaline Brotherhood has 800 warships.

The Prince of the Midsummer Islands received a horn order from Count Redwyn and ordered the battleship to turn around and form a semicircle towards Count Redwin's battleship.

But no matter how the Earl and Prince Redwin arranged the fleet, the Quells fleet was neither fast nor slow, slowly appearing in all directions, these warships were scattered on the sea, dense, I don't know how many.

The prince stood on the bow of the ship, and he saw the sheer size of the enemy ships, and at a glance he could not see the battleship formations on the side. The prince smiled: "Soldiers, we are surrounded by enemies. ”

Dororo Rollo!

The Prince's soldiers shouted!

"Archer, prepare!" exclaimed the Prince.

The archers lined up on the boat, bags of arrows at their hands.

"Herald, tell Earl Redwin that the enemy knows all of our plans to attack Quells, and that an ambush has been set up in advance, and that His Majesty has spies around him. Have Earl Redwyn release all ravens. His Majesty needs to know how we died. ”

The herald immediately passed the prince's advice to Count Redwin's flagship.

Count Redwin stood on the bridge of the flagship, and he saw the dense crowd of enemy ships on all sides, and there was no doubt that the enemy was several times, tens, and dozens of times more than theirs. The enemy surrounded them, but was in no hurry to attack. Not a single ship ventured forward, and they lined up in formation, slowly pressing up, squeezing the space of Redwin's fleet smaller and smaller.

"Bachelor, release ravens to His Majesty and tell him that we are surrounded. ”

"Yes, Lord Count. ”

The birdcage opened, and several ravens flew into the air.

The letters were written in advance and tied to the ravens in question, each with its own flying destination.

"Release the ravens for Her Majesty Queen Daenerys Targaryen, we need her dragon. ”

"Yes!"

A few ravens rose into the air, rushed into the air, and headed for the shores of Quells.
