"Ala, she took the fleet away."

Amy leaned her back against the door and stared at the ceiling and said blankly. The room was gloomy.

"She didn't tell me anything... This is the first time. I don't know what she is thinking, I don't know how confident she is, I don't know whether she is confident or pretends to be calm... I can't see anything. She just walked out and didn't allow me to have any doubts."

On the other side of the door, Lily leaned against the wall in the same position.

"I felt the same way when Hestein led his troops away."

Lily drank the wine sips at a time.

"I know, he asked me to stay in Zeland because the form in front of me was too bad. But it made me feel very uncomfortable, you know? It was very uncomfortable!"

"But I can understand Ella... Her eyes were facing me, but she was not looking at me. She was looking at the distance... a place I couldn't see far away. No matter what kind of scenery there was, the dawn of victory, or the ash smoke of failure, I couldn't share it for her. And she didn't want to describe it to me... She was ready to carry everything herself."

"This is the king who leads everything."

"Wang... Lily, why did you use this word too?"

"Because I am just a mortal. Like you, I can only look at Hestein's departure back and pray silently here."

"No... Ella is different from Hestein. She is still young, very young...I can't let her walk on this road alone."

"Do you want to catch up?"

"I think."

"Then, I'll find a boat."

"No. I can't. Ella asked me to wait for her to come back here."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Do you know Jutland? I saw on the map that this land is located in the west of Zealand, only a very small strait."

"I know, that's the territory of the Federation of Almany."

Amy opened the door and let the sun shine into the house.

"Loki's Sword...I'll find you a guide. Go there and help me do something..."

...

...

Sifuer. This land that was enchanted with Sigurd's magic is still shrouded in thick smoke. You have to land in Zeland on a boat from Britain, and from Sifuer, you have to travel through a series of straits.

Ella decided to use these straits as a place of decisive battle.

The troops Hestein left for her were only two thousand, which was far from enough. Although Ella mobilized almost everyone who could go to the battlefield when she set out, those people were old, weak, sick and disabled, and had no ability to fight hand-to-hand combat at all.

——But if you fight a naval battle that pays more attention to ship handling skills, your disadvantages will be slightly smaller.

"1200 years ago, there was a famous naval battle in the Mediterranean."

Ella gathered the little leaders and explained her combat plan.

"Xerxes mobilized a huge fleet of more than four hundred ships to invade Peloponnese, and only fifty three-layer sailboats were sent out in the Peloponnese area, pretending to flee north."

"The people in the Peloponnese region led Xerxes' fleet into a narrow strait. In that limited space, Xerxes' fleet was difficult to travel due to its excessive number and could not even retreat. At this time, the hidden fleet of Peloponnese suddenly appeared from behind Xerxes' fleet, and the sailboat in front immediately turned around and launched an attack on Xerxes' fleet."

"In that naval battle, 40 warships were lost in the Peloponnese area, and 200 warships were destroyed by Xerxes, which did not include the number of captured ships."

The pirates listened to the stories Ella told with great enthusiasm. They liked this kind of story about war.

"This time, our plan is the same. When I went to Seford before, I had observed the terrain nearby. There are many places suitable for similar operations in this narrow strait. We divided the fleet into two, one leading the fleet of Hafdan and Ivar into the narrow zone in front, and the other hidden from sight, finding the right time to fight out."

"I have observed Sigald's fleet, all small boats that aim to transport troops, and are not suitable for combat at sea. I think Hafdan and Ivar are similar. But our ships are now equipped with ocean fire - those who have been to Antilia, you should know the power of this weapon. Naval battles are beneficial to us."

"When the enemy's fleet enters the narrow zone, we will attack with ocean fire from the front and back sides!"

After Ella said that, the pirates applauded. In their eyes, Ella was the goddess of victory who brought victory.

"Sister Shield Girl, we can win by doing this, right?"

Gan's eyes flashed with excitement for the coming killing.

However, Ella was silent and turned her head to look at the sea.

The pirates began to search for the most suitable terrain in the nearby seas. They soon found the perfect place to meet Ella's plan - not far from Sifur. The narrow terrain was enough to accommodate all the fleets of Hafdan and Ivar, but it also made it difficult for them to turn and drive. Sifur, shrouded in black fog, was enough to hide the fleet without anyone curiously approaching it.

The best thing is that it really only has two ways to get out of front and back. Once it blocks the front and back, the fleet inside will be completely unable to escape.

The excited pirates dragged Ella to see the perfect place—a place so suitable for the combat plan, as if the gods favored Ella.

But Ella remained silent from beginning to end, just like the stuffy summer sky.

A report was soon heard - Hafdan's fleet had appeared near Seford and was expected to arrive tomorrow in the daytime.

To be safe, the pirates tried the ocean fire equipped by Ella for the ship - sprayed on a wooden ship, and in the blink of an eye, the wooden ship burned. The power, distance, and sustainability were all impeccable. Apart from being unable to burn on the ocean, it was no worse than the ocean fire equipped by the Olus fleet.

So the pirates deployed everything as planned. A fleet left Seford and floated outside the strait. When they met Hafdan's fleet, they pulled up their sails and fled to the predetermined location.

They took turns holding their axes to take a nap. Everyone imagined the scene of defeating the Hafdan fleet tomorrow, smiling slightly.

But Ella couldn't fall asleep at all. She sat on the shore and searched for books in the Wang Family Library in her mind.

——There are too few records about naval warfare.

Ella has almost searched for all the records of war, but most of them are described by land wars. There are also some who seem to describe naval wars, but in fact they are the imaginations of poets or painters who do not understand naval wars at all. The truly useful naval war records can not fill a piece of parchment.

This is the second time Ella commands war and the first time to command naval battles.

But the records that she could refer to were almost zero.

——Can this kind of combat plan 1,200 years ago really defeat the pirates galloping in the sea?

Moreover, when the fleet size is far lower than that of the other side?

Searching for the Wang Family Library was too exhausting. When it was dawn, Ella finally couldn't hold on and fell asleep.

In her dream, she saw a raging fire igniting in the strait. In front of her was a man wearing a white shirt, spotless, as if he had just descended from the sky to the earth.

He held a bloody sword in his hand, and there were many people behind him, all of whom were pirates who followed Ella to fight. Everyone's eyes were full of reluctance and anger, but they were helpless.

The man waved his sword. The world in front of Ella was left with blood red.

Ella opened her eyes, and the sky was still gray.

——That solution alone is probably not enough.

However, Ella really has no choice. Naval battles, a narrow area that cannot be escaped, with double-teaming on both sides and fire attacks, which are already the solution to minimize the disadvantages brought by the number of people.

Moreover, Ella can no longer find any more records that will be helpful to the upcoming naval battle.

——Is this really the case?

The sun in the east rose, a little dazzling. The work of the soldier saint suddenly appeared before her eyes, turning the chapter gracefully.

Ella suddenly understood the problem with the original plan.
Chapter completed!
