Chapter 563: Reclaiming the Lost Land
The enemy army was almost upon us, and the Bullet Monarch surely knew.
After a brief panic, he said to his ministers,
"There is no need for alarm, the Great Yan Dynasty is not adept at naval warfare, their ships are outdated, and it’s likely that they are conscripted vessels from their own merchant convoy. Those ducks on land can’t swim, unlike our people and soldiers who are mostly skilled swimmers. Just knock them into the water, and they will pose no threat!"
"We are not like the weak king next door, we are a kingdom destined for strength, we have weapons and food seized through conquest, we are not spineless!"
His impassioned speech set the ministers’ blood boiling.
However...
They had underestimated the Great Yan’s military.
When they saw the young Emperor Jun Yuyan leading at the front, the dense fleet of ships bristling with cannons and arms, the legs of the Bullet Great General at the forefront turned to jelly.
He urgently reported to the Monarch, who immediately fell to his knees, ordering someone to negotiate.
"This is outrageous! This is outrageous!"
