But the smile on his face froze before it lasted for a long time.

Because—under the fog of saury, he vaguely saw a black "giant snake" lying across the mouth of Zlu.

"What's that..."

Otto murmured, while raising his hands and rubbing his eyes hard.

After opening his eyes again, there was still a black "giant snake" lying across Zlu's mouth.

More and more generals on various ships discovered this "giant snake".

"What's that..."

"Who knows."

"What kind of animal is it?"

"How can there be such a big animal in this world?"

...

While discussing in a low voice, the soldiers looked at the "black snake" with Otto in a distance.

As the ship gradually approached the "black snake", Otto and the others finally saw clearly the appearance of the "black snake".

It's an iron chain.

It is a thick and long iron chain.

It is a thick and long iron chain connecting the north and south of Zlukou.

It is an iron chain that blocks the mouth of Zlu.

It's an iron chain that makes Otto feel dizzy...

On the north shore of Zlukou, flags flutter.

The flag of the Britannian army and the flag of the Knights of Michael were floating.

After seeing clearly what this "black snake" was and seeing the wind-stretched flags on the north bank of Zlukou, a strong sense of dizziness hit Otto's brain.

Otto almost stood unsteadily and fell on the deck.

He held his forehead, staggered for several steps before finally stabilizing his body.

Then he gritted his teeth and squeezed out words filled with anger from the cracks of his clenched teeth:

"That bastard Rudendolf..."

"He did not lift the blockade of the Knights of Michael's throne on Zlu's mouth!"

...

...

The north shore of Zlukou, the military camp of the Dengjiaer army—

Three minutes ago, Deng Jiaer and Gary received information about an enemy ship approaching Zlu's mouth.

Three minutes later, Deng Jiaer and Gary both climbed onto the nearest lookout to the lake.

Standing on the high observation deck, Deng Jiaer and Gary clearly saw that on the surface of Anga Lake, more than forty warships were slowly approaching Zlu's mouth.

The hulls of these more than 40 warships all had strange black marks, and the hulls of many ships were still damaged.

On the flagpole, the Frankish army flag was flying high.

"Sir, they succeeded!"

Looking at the more than forty enemy ships approaching Zlu's mouth, Deng Jiaer was the first to shout excitedly.

"He defeated the Frank Empire's fleet!"

More than forty ships were dirty and damaged. The enemy ships with the Frankish flag slowly approached Zlu's mouth - anyone with a little brain understood what was going on.

Whether it was Deng Jiaer or Gary, his face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.

But no matter how excited they were, they were not blinded by this strong excitement.

They quickly returned to their calmness and then issued the orders they should give the most now.

"Bow and arrow ready! Gather the enemy ship!"

...

...

Dense black locusts rose up from the north shore of Zlu's mouth one by one, and then smashed hard at the remnants of the Royal Fleet.

"That bastard Ludendolf..."

Otto, who was forced to hide in the cabin to avoid arrows, still cursed and sweared in all the swear words in their Frankish language.

After suffering a great defeat, his fleet was almost completely destroyed - this already made Otto angry.

Now I found that my comrades didn't help him lift the blockade behind him.

If you don't curse and vent your inner emotions, Otto may go crazy.

"Didn't he bring both the armored paladins and the saints?!"

"With so many elite soldiers and generals, why didn't we break the blockade of Zlu's mouth?"

According to his known information, Bazel led 33,500 elite troops to Zlukou to lift the blockade of Zlukou by the Knights of Michael's Order.

The 33,500 elite soldiers of Bazer include 10,000 armored paladins and 3,500 holy armored soldiers.

Walter handed over the two ace troops of their Frank Empire to Bazel.

Ottoben was full of confidence in Bazel.

It is believed that Bazer, who brought the iron armored holy soldiers, and the other 20,000 elite infantry soldiers, will definitely help him lift the blockade behind him.

And the greater the expectations before, the greater the disappointment now...

Otto didn't know that the two ace troops of their Frank Empire were all piled up somewhere in the military camp of the Dengjiaer army.

The iron armored paladins and holy armored soldiers are both heavy armored units, and their equipment is extremely expensive and good. If they are just thrown on the battlefield like this, it would be a waste.

So under the order of Deng Jiaer, all the equipment of these two troops was stripped down and used as their spoils.

As for the person Otto cursed - Bazel...

He is now leading a remnant army of less than 3,000 people left and fleeing back to the Rhineland Plain in a hurry...

...

...

Yesterday—

The north shore of Zlukou—

Bazer arranged 20,000 infantrymen and 3,500 holy armor soldiers in the middle.

The Holy Armor soldiers were in front, and 20,000 infantry were in back.

The 10,000 iron armored paladins were divided into two, with 5,000 people arranged on the left wing and 5,000 people arranged on the right wing.

Infantry is in the middle, cavalry is in the two wings - ordinary attack formations cannot be more ordinary.

Although this formation is ordinary, it is Bazer's best-known formation.

He defeated countless enemies with this seemingly ordinary military formation.

Arriving on the north shore of Zlukou and after three days of rest, Bazel led the entire army who had recovered and ready to go to line up on the north shore of Zlukou.

Preparing to fight a decisive battle with the Britannian army that blocked the Zluo mouth and lift the blockade of the Zluo mouth.

Bazel did not expect that the Britannian army opposite also arranged an army formation exactly like him, and placed the infantry in the middle and the cavalry on both wings.

However, because the Brenchy-Niya army on the opposite side was less than half of that of the Brenchy-Niya army, the Brenchy-Niya army's formation was much "slimmer" than the Brenchy-Niya army's formation.

Since the Britannian Army began to set up its formation, Bazel stood on the high observation deck and observed the Britannian Army's formation.

After the Britannian army's formation gradually took shape, Bazer discovered that there was a strange place in the Britannian army's formation.

This strange place is that the infantry deployed in the middle of the Britannian Army was not arranged in a square array.

Instead, a crescent-shaped army convex in the middle towards the Bazer army and concave on both sides.

After seeing that the Britannian infantry was actually lined up in a "crescent-moon-shaped" military formation, Bazer's brow frowned.

He did not understand why the commander of the Britannian army had to line up the infantry formation like this.
