Under the deep sky, waves were striking endlessly, the splashing waves were shining with millions of silver lights, and the endless vast sea rippled with countless bright waves like mercury.

The empty turbid waves after another transformed into a undulating high-ling deep valley. And between the peaks and valleys that were always alternated, warships formed a huge fleet, along the long coastline of the empire, heading towards the Port of Lot in the north with all their might.

This amazing fleet was the naval force of the Britannian Empire.

For this "Northern Great Swivel" battle, the Imperial Navy, with 20,000 troops and more than 500 warships, was dispatched, left the Navy headquarters, headed north along the coast, and headed to the Port of Lot in the northern border.

It was raining.

It was drizzling and drizzling like fog.

This foggy rain wet the deck of each warship.

On the fleet's flagship, an old man covered in armor held the knight's sword at his waist, looking at the distance that was blurred by the drizzle, allowing the raindrops to wet his armor and clothes.

"Mude, it's raining outside, why don't you go into the cabin to shelter from the rain?"

An old man with white hair and hair said this while walking out of the cabin with an umbrella.

This old man who was in the rain outside the cabin and looked into the distance was the Imperial Navy chief, the Double Oak Knight Mude Hardy.

The old man who advised Mu De to go back to the cabin to shelter from the rain was the Imperial Navy deputy commander, Blaze Short, the double oak knight.

Because the Imperial Navy was not large, with only 20,000 people, and the Empire never attached importance to naval construction, Mude and Blaze were the only two knights in the Imperial Navy.

"Mude, are you burned out?" Blaze said to Mude angrily, "If it's rainy, don't take shelter in the cabin, but get wet outside."

"My brain is not burned out. I just...want to calm me down with the cold rain..."

After saying that, Mu De sighed.

After learning about the details of the "Northern Kingdom Slide" operation and receiving the central government's order to mobilize troops, Mu De was very depressed.

The closer it is to the northern border, the closer it is to the Knights of Michael and the closer it is to Su Cheng, the more depressed Mude feels.

Mu De is 62 years old this year and is a genuine veteran. He has been fighting for the country for 46 years since he joined the army at the age of 16. In terms of military service and qualifications, there may not be many people in the entire empire who are better than him.

Mu De's life was also an unfortunate life. It was ups and downs several times, and it was ups and downs in the army...

In terms of ability, Mude is also good. He can command land wars and naval wars. Mude did not serve in the navy from the beginning, but Mude played in the army from the beginning.

Mu De was very capable. After joining the army, he gained military merits quickly. After joining the army for 10 years, he was successfully enthroned as the New Gui Knight at the age of 26.

He became a new Knight in just 10 years. Compared with talented geniuses like Su Cheng and Alisha, it is naturally incomparable, but compared with ordinary people, this is already an amazing achievement.

But - although Mu De is quite capable, he has one problem.

That is greed for money.

After becoming the New Gui Knight, Mude began to abuse his power, constantly embezzled and accepted bribes from others.

Corruption - this is a common thing in the officialdom and in the army.

It’s a pity that Mude’s luck is really bad.

Not long after he became a new Ku Knight and began to embezzle and accept bribes, he was discovered and arrested by people from the Military Law Department.

The crime of corruption is the same in any country, and it is a serious crime that cannot be forgiven.

Fortunately, Mude didn't have much money to embezzle at that time, and the military law was to deal with it lightly. He just confiscated all the money he had embezzled before, deprived him of his position as a knight, demoted him to several levels, and returned him to a squadron leader.

From the Xingui Knight to the squadron leader in one breath - Mude's efforts over the years before could be considered wasteful.

This setback completely awakened Mu De.

Mu De decided to reflect, and from then on, Mu De's greedy nature became much more restrained.

Although he was demoted back to a squadron leader, Mu De's ability is still there.

It took nearly 10 years and at the age of 35, he was finally re-enthroned and re-enthroned by the New Gui Knight.

But after getting the Knight Sword back, Mude did not get any military achievements.

Because at that time, Mu De offended an important official in the central government because of his upright personality.

In order to retaliate against Mu De, this central minister secretly moved some tricks, leaving Mu De neglected and no longer had a decent task to carry out.

I've been neglected for 3 years.

After wasting three years of time, Mu De realized that he could not continue like this.

If this continues, he may be the new Knight of Gui for the rest of his life.

Mu Deke is unwilling to be the new Ku Knight who will be like this for the rest of his life. He wants to make a military achievements! He wants to be promoted!

It was time for Isel, Albert, and Alisa's mother, Abigail, and they were young and shining.

Seeing these juniors obtaining military achievements at an astonishing speed, the old senior Mu De became more and more anxious.

After falling out of the jar, Mu De also made a fool of himself - to pay money to bribe and make some connections.

Mu De took out his savings over the years and took care of him everywhere, hoping to clear his relationship so that he would no longer be so neglected and hide it in silence.

Then the tragedy happened again - Mu De met a very unscrupulous bastard.

After taking over Mu De's benefits, this bastard not only did not do anything, but also bit back and reported Mu De to bribe Shangguan!

Mu De was demoted again... This time it was even more miserable, because Mu De had committed corruption and bribery before, and this time he committed it again. In order to show a warning, the Military Law Department directly demoted Mu De to the team leader...

The efforts of more than ten years have been wasted again...

When he became a knight again and had the knight sword again, Mu Dedu was already 49 years old, an old man with most of his hair white...

Mude has participated in several naval battles and showed his outstanding naval combat talent and level. Perhaps it was out of "waste utilization" and pity for this poor veteran. The central government transferred Mude, who had many criminal records and had been floating in the army, to the Imperial Navy and let him be the naval commander of the Imperial Navy.

Navy Chief Commander--Although this title looks handsome, it actually has no value.

After all, the Britannian Empire never valued the construction of the navy, and the total force of the imperial navy has always been only more than 20,000.

The Imperial Navy has two positions: Chief of Navy and Deputy Navy. Anyone who is transferred to become Chief of Navy and Deputy Navy is all old knights, and they provide a place to support these old knights.

Therefore, the Imperial Navy has always been nicknamed "Marine Nursing Home".

I have to say that this nickname is really too accurate.

The usual mission of the Imperial Navy is to fight pirates along the coast and escort diplomats on the sea. The Navy Chief and Deputy Commander have almost nothing to do except drink tea every day.
