After receiving the help of Xia Kingdom, Benedict Keo immediately asked the envoys to return to the Ice and Snow Kingdom on a warship to report the news, but he himself stayed in the Central Beijing of Xia Kingdom and prepared to return with Xia Kingdom's army.

It is precisely because of this that Benedict Keo was able to celebrate a Mid-Autumn Festival with a strong cultural atmosphere in the Central Government of Xia, allowing him to experience the power of Xia from another perspective.

Less than ten days after the festival, Benedict Keo received a notice from Xia Guo, asking him to be ready and go to war soon, which made him amazed at the efficiency of Xia Guo.

On August 25, the third year of Qiyuan (the 32nd year of Apocalypse), Benedict Keo, the Minister of the Navy of Xia Kingdom and the commander of the defensive fleet, General Li Baozheng, took a train from Zhongjing to Ninghai City in the north.

Here, the defensive fleet's expedition team and the Marine Brigade have been assembled, and they can go overseas only after a command.

Also here, Benedict Keo saw a corner of the Xia military power for the first time so close.

The 15,000-man marine brigade of a full 15,000-person marine brigade will cost nearly fifty large and medium-sized transport ships, but there are less than ten warships for escort. If a evenly matched intercepting fleet appears on the way, it will be a very dangerous thing.

Fortunately, there was no such "even-match" hostile force, otherwise Li Bao would not have agreed to act like this.

There were about fifty ships sailing for a long time. To the outsiders who were unaware of this, they would never dare to provoke such a huge fleet.

Having said that, even if the transport ship is used to fight, the Marine Brigade is not a vegetarian, and can still give the enemy a strong counterattack.

This is the first time in Xia State that a brigade of troops was sent to more than 1,000 kilometers overseas at one time. Even if the preparations were made before, I found that there were still many problems when I started to implement it.

Just like too many transport ships used to transport soldiers, which makes naval warships incomplete protection, or it also requires a large demand for logistics supplies, or it occupies too much civil transportation capacity and consumes huge amounts.

However, these are not too big problems, and they will not delay the fleet's expedition at all.

In fact, there is no way to avoid these problems. Just adjust the first batch of dispatched marine brigades to one or two or three battalions.

This is also the case in previous exercises. If you need to make a beach landing, there are not many troops to conduct landing operations. As long as you occupy a beachhead with the support of naval warships, the remaining troops can be transported slowly.

However, this time, there is no need to catch a beach and land. You only need to transport the army to the destination. Anyway, the same effect is the same when you go a few more times, but it takes a long time, so Li Bao decided to transport the troops of one brigade at one time.

If you want to make a landing landing that is not too far away, you can send 4,500 people at one time with the nine supply ships of the defensive fleet, that is, three battalions of troops, and there is no need to requisition civilian transportation power at all.

Therefore, this naval expedition set a number of firsts in the history of the Xia Kingdom. The first expedition to the overseas world was thousands of miles away, and the first time it was to send a brigade of troops from the sea at one time...

After sailing north for three days, the expedition fleet arrived at the southernmost islands of the Ice and Snow Kingdom. From here, it drove more than 450 kilometers northeast to reach the Ice and Snow Kingdom ice and Snow Kingdom ice and Snow Kingdom. After sailing northwest for nearly 500 kilometers, it would reach the destination of this trip - the last city on land of the Ice and Snow Kingdom.

No matter what this city is called within the Ice and Snow Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom named this city "Weihai City", which means the place where the Great Xia Empire is so powerful that the North Sea!

Although the Xia Navy is still on the way to "shock the North Sea", they believe that this is unquestionable, whether it is Li Bao or Benedict Keo who is following him.

The expeditionary fleet did not stop here, and found the right direction and headed straight towards the destination. This was what Benedict Keo expected, because Weihai City might break the city in the next moment, so the support force arrived one minute earlier, and Weihai City would be safe one minute earlier.

In Benedict Keo's current view, as long as the huge fleet in front of him arrives in Weihai City, it means the absolute safety of Weihai City. After all, he has personally experienced the invincible power of this army at close range.

In Li Bao's opinion, the same is true. According to the plan, if the war is fought well, then this battle will be a one-man show for their navy, and there will be nothing to do with the army. So he must win this "good start" battle.

After the fleet passed the Beihai Islands, it was obvious that the weather was getting colder day by day, which made Li Bao sigh at the difference between distant areas like a different world.

When he arrived at the Beihai Islands, he felt the temperature change. When Benedict Keo was still regretting why he didn't remind the Xia army to prepare clothes to keep warm, he saw that the officers and soldiers of the Xia country were all wearing clothes that were obviously cold-proof. He couldn't help but sigh how well the Xia country's preparation was.

Regardless of the fact that Benedict Keo, who once again felt the powerful side of Xia Kingdom, after two days of voyage, the expedition fleet successfully arrived at Weihai City in the Ice and Snow Kingdom.

The outer sea of ​​Weihai City, the expeditionary fleet's huge size could certainly not escape the eyes of the Ice and Snow Kingdom and the Beihan Kingdom, but both sides who received the news were happy and worried.

Rivet Atwick, the Knight Commander of the Northern Cold Kingdom, was the commander of the attack on the Ice and Snow Kingdom. When he learned that a powerful fleet of unknown names appeared on the sea, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Because after so long battles, Rivet Atwick knew that he could not beat the Ice and Snow Kingdom at sea, so a new fleet has appeared on the sea. You don’t need to think too much about it and know that this is the other party’s support force.

However, according to the spy's report, the direction of the other team's fleet this time was actually in the south, and the style of the warship was something I had never seen before, which made Rivette Atwick feel a little bad premonition.

After repeated inquiries, I finally learned who this unique fleet belonged to - it turned out to be the mysterious Great Xia Empire from the south of the mainland. This proved Rivet Atwick's bad premonition.

In the past, every time the support from the Ice and Snow Kingdom arrived, they would launch a counterattack on them, intending to repel them, but for Rivette Atwick, this was just a act of dying again and again.

Although Rivet Atwick is powerful and the scar on his face gives people the feeling of being a reckless man, as a new knight captain who has entered the kingdom, how could he be a reckless man who knows nothing?

Rivet Atwick, who has some command ability, knew it would be best not to let Xia's army land, so before the opponent could counterattack, he concentrated all the troops of nearly 100,000 troops to launch a total of his achievements on the Weihai City that had been in front of him for a long time.
