Apocalypse Lord
Chapter 218 - 154: This Will Be a Perfect Ambush!
On the northern sea of the island, the flag of the Graythorn Battle Group flapped vigorously in the wind.
In the captain’s cabin of the flagship, Ralph with a cigar in his mouth, sat comfortably and dominantly, reviewing the information handed over by the intelligence officer, his brow tightly knit.
The commander of the Graythorn Legion was a middle-aged man with a burly build, sharp features, and a face full of scars, his muscular arms covered with fierce scars.
"Horn is actually planning to attack the Southern Capital of Ark and wants me to split my troops to hold off the Golden Armored Soldiers and Ark War Chariots in the Northern and Eastern Borders?"
Ralph exhaled a puff of smoke and turned to the Chief of Staff nearby: "Nico, what do you think?"
"I think it is indeed a good opportunity, Commander."
The tall and thin man pondered for a moment and responded earnestly: "If the intelligence is true, Seagull City must currently be in a state of insufficient military strength."
Ralph nodded, left the captain’s cabin, and stepped onto the deck.
Just the next day after the Graythorn Battle Group destroyed the Camelot Port, a dozen figures holding great swords appeared on the shore.
The pure beautiful waves that troubled the Alliance soldiers were like fragile weeds in front of the Ark Warriors, shattering at a touch, with blazing flames, the great sword leaving chaos of ashes wherever it swept.
Ralph carefully observed those seemingly tireless Ark Warriors.
It was already the fourth day, yet the waves provided by Lady Nightingale had achieved nothing!
In fact, the main objective of the Alliance Legion in destroying the port had already been achieved; letting the pure beautiful waves clear the coastline was merely a convenient move.
Unexpectedly, Lord Lin Lan actually cared so much about those low-status humble people, even sending out the Ark Kingdom’s most core forces to protect them...
This is truly a rare occurrence.
Ralph had threatened many kings of small islands.
In his impression, with even the slightest disturbance, those kings of small countries were eager to pile all their forces in front of the royal palace for protection.
"Nico, if our soldiers were to face the Golden Armored Soldiers of Ark..."
The commander of Graythorn, cutting a new cigar unhurriedly, asked: "Do you think we would have a chance of winning?"
"No chance in a one-on-one condition."
Chief of Staff Nico truthfully stated his judgment, his expression grave: "The combat awareness of those Golden Armored Soldiers is frighteningly strong."
The nearby sergeant major immediately showed a discontented expression.
"And what’s strange is that their combat style is very similar to that of the older generation of the Legion of the Alliance..."
The Chief of Staff’s eyes became a bit puzzled, his tone confident: "I guess someone intentionally trained them, and this person must have been in the Alliance for a long time."
"Do you mean, an officer betrayed the Alliance?"
Ralph slowly exhaled smoke, the chill and edge in his eyes hidden in the swirling smoke.
Ark has not just fifty Golden Armored Soldiers; aside from those golden cans, those militias wielding golden weapons are also not to be underestimated.
No wonder the Commercial Federation is eager to tear face with the Ark Kingdom...
The resources contained in the Sun Mine are truly exaggerated.
Whether it’s Ark money or golden armor, the temptation for the Commercial Federation is too great and numerous.
Ralph initially thought the White Oak Main Island’s act of sending a legion to the small country of Ark was using a cannon to shoot mosquitoes.
Now, it seems that the decision of the Commerce Association was definitely correct.
More than three months ago, the Ark Kingdom was an innocent façade, always relying on small merchants to sell those rare trinkets the rich favored.
In a blink, they had wiped out the Lion Heart nobles, defeated the nascent Celestial Calamity, and even seized the Alliance’s new route.
If Lord Lin Lan were allowed to continue growing, that guy would definitely become a grave threat to the Alliance!
Despite not liking that flamboyant Silver Wing Commander Horn, Ralph essentially made the same judgment as Horn.
——Absolutely do not give the Ark people a breather!
They must take the chance while the Ark Lord is diverting his troops to rescue the common people, to take down Lord Lin Lan’s Seagull City entirely!
Ralph fell into thought.
According to the intelligence provided by Horn, the firepower of the Alliance War Chariot is quite sinister, the fired light cannon seeming to have eyes, intercepting the magic bombs aimed at the civilian areas from the Alliance Battleships at any time.
The most bizarre thing is that the war chariot seems to require no supplies at all.
Yet for Horn, the magic bombs fired from the battleships are a solid cost, the firepower consumption of the Alliance is all glittering Bright Gold Coins!
No wonder that cunning old fox Horn offered him an appropriate price.
A trace of a smile appeared on Ralph’s rugged face. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Luckily, it only takes two battleships to hold off the Ark’s war chariot, the intelligence should not be wrong, Horn is not yet so crafty to play tricks on military intelligence.
"Nico, take Sergeant Major Sam and Sergeant Major Harlan, and make haste to the Eastern Border of the island to take over Lulin Port!"
Ralph immediately issued instructions to the number two in the legion.
Ark Island is not very large, as long as the Alliance’s magic-guided battleships advance at full speed, the Graythorn Legion can reach the destination in just half a day.
"Yes! Commander!"
Nico stood straight, responding loudly.
The Graythorn Battle Group is known for its swift and decisive actions, moments later, two magic-guided battleships turned their bows and disappeared from Ralph’s sight.
Ralph looked out over the coastline of Ark, a savage smile forming on his lips.
Since Horn hopes he can hold off the Golden Armored Soldiers in the two borders of the island, he can certainly do it even a bit more excellently!
