Chapter 1487: Happy News of Returning Home
At this moment, Europe, Longyan Port.
Liu Zheng felt a chill growing stronger.
The weather was getting colder and colder.
"Liu Zheng, I want to eat sour oranges," Xie Chan said softly to Liu Zheng while lying on the bed.
Hearing this, Liu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously blurted out: "You don't usually love eating sweets the most? Why do you want to eat sour today..."
Halfway through the word "sour," Liu Zheng suddenly widened his eyes, looking at Xie Chan with a mix of nervousness and joy.
"Is it... are you pregnant?"
Liu Zheng's voice was nearly trembling; he saw Xie Chan nod with a blush on her face and was immediately overjoyed.
Wearing only thin clothes, Liu Zheng laughed out loud: "I have an heir!"
Xie Chan looked shy and gave him a sidelong glance, when suddenly a bout of dry retching came.
Liu Zheng held Xie Chan excitedly and said softly: "I've wronged you these days."
Xie Chan lay in his arms, her beautiful face full of expression: "It's fine, this time our parents won't nag anymore, and Father won't send you any more diagrams."
Hearing the word "diagrams," Liu Zheng's old face turned red, and he coughed twice to cover his embarrassment.
Xie Chan gave him another sidelong glance; at the time, she was still wondering why this guy's tricks increased every time they received a letter from their parents.
Hmph, so it was because of the diagrams.
"Let's not talk about that, when did you conceive?"
"It's been a while," Xie Chan said softly.
Liu Zheng was stunned: "I see... it's not safe in Europe now, let's go back to Longyan."
"I'm not going back."
Liu Zheng was speechless for a moment and sighed; he knew Xie Chan was hiding it from him because she was worried about him being here alone.
Europe was, after all, a strange place, and there was still a war going on.
Although the Longyan Fleet seemed to possess great power in Europe, Xie Chan always felt it was unsafe.
It was more complicated here than in Longyan, and Xie Chan could not imagine how a religion that was all show could rule Europe.
She knew her man was currently at the top of the list of people that this religion ruling Europe wanted to kill.
"Be good, listen to me..." Liu Zheng whispered softly in Xie Chan's ear.
Xie Chan shook her head: "Liu Zheng, I can go back, but how can you guarantee your safety? Winter is coming soon."
"Even someone like me who doesn't understand war can see that a large-scale war is brewing in Europe right now, and our Longyan Fleet is deep in the middle of it."
Liu Zheng did not answer Xie Chan, but just held her gently, letting her struggle and kick in his arms.
After a long while, Xie Chan quieted down, looking at Liu Zheng's gentle face with a pair of red, moist eyes.
"Promise me, when the child is born, come back... okay?"
The air in the room was silent for a few seconds; Liu Zheng looked at Xie Chan, and Xie Chan also looked into his eyes.
Liu Zheng nodded slightly.
Xie Chan threw herself into his arms...
Soon, the news that Xie Chan was returning to Longyan spread throughout the port.
Countless Longyan troops gathered at the port in unison to see Xie Chan off.
To return to Longyan, Xie Chan changed back into Longyan clothing, and Liu Zheng looked at her with a smile: "That's more like the Longyang Princess."
Xie Chan smiled lightly, looking at Liu Zheng; the sea breeze blew through her hair, but it did not blow away her thoughts: "Liu Zheng, don't forget what you promised me."
Liu Zheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at Xie Chan as she boarded the Longyan Supply Ship, and made a vow!
"When my child is born, how can the father not be there!"
"I will definitely go!"
Liu Zheng vowed.
A strong wind suddenly blew up, and Liu Zheng shouted coldly: "I will definitely go!"
After this shout, the wind actually stopped.
Xie Chan nodded slightly and walked into the cabin.
The Longyan supply ships, the Yinzhou ships, sailed out in a grand procession, totaling
fifteen ships setting sail together.
The French observed the Longyan supply ships on the sea, overjoyed, and quickly organized a fleet, preparing to intercept them.
They had long since been at odds with Longyan to the death.
How could there be any reason not to attack Longyan's ships?
The British also observed the Longyan fleet sailing out in a grand procession; the fleet composed of fifteen ships was very eye-catching on the Mediterranean Sea.
The Longyan fleet did not know what it meant to be low-key at all, and did not take the British and French into their eyes at all.
The British noticed the French fleet moving out and followed closely behind, even though they were currently allies with Longyan.
But the British had been coveting the Longyan fleet for a long time, and had long wanted to capture one to study.
On the Mediterranean Sea, the French fleet approached rapidly.
"Longyan's ships, acting so swaggeringly just to set sail, have they asked us French?"
The French fleet charged forward at high speed.
In their eyes, these fifteen Longyan ships were fat sheep.
Although the French fleet could not beat the Longyan fleet, the French would never miss any opportunity to intimidate the Longyan fleet.
On the fourteen Yinzhou ships, after discovering the French fleet, they all simultaneously revealed all the Cannon equipment on the warships.
Each Yinzhou ship was equipped with a total of five rotatable Cannon, seven heavy Cannon, and fifty small Cannon.
A total of sixty-two cannons!
Boom!
The muzzles of every Yinzhou warship fired in unison.
The sky-filling artillery fire instantly engulfed the French Fleet; they did not even have time to fire their own cannons.
The bombardment from the Longyan Fleet had already arrived.
The French Fleet consisted of twenty ships, and before a single exchange was even finished, five had already sunk.
The previous arrogance of the French, along with their fleet, all sank to the bottom of the sea.
The ships that were not destroyed by the Longyan Fleet scattered and fled in every direction, just like stray dogs.
The British who were following closely behind were left with faces full of horror!
They had never imagined that this would be the result.
The battle ended so quickly that the British forces following behind the French Fleet had not even reacted before it was already over.
The French Fleet was completely vulnerable before the Longyan Fleet.
Seeing the French Fleet defeated so quickly, the Longyan Fleet had even attacked without a single warning.
This filled the British Fleet with terror.
Immediately afterward, they discovered through their Telescope that the Longyan Fleet had already aimed its guns and cannons at them!
"Retreat, retreat, retreat!"
"Hurry and retreat!"
The British Fleet immediately turned their rudders and fled frantically.
In their eyes, the Longyan army was a group of absolute madmen.
And this group of madmen also possessed a power that made them feel incomparable, they were powerful madmen!
On the deck, Xie Chan looked at the sunken French Fleet without the slightest expression.
Not far away, she also saw the British Fleet changing direction.
Xie Chan sneered and shouted aloud: "European powers, remember that you cannot defeat Longyan!"
The wind roared and the waves surged, but the Longyan Fleet, which Liu Zheng had personally developed, cleaved through the wind and waves for Xie Chan.
On this day, the French Fleet was thrashed by the Longyan Fleet, and the British Fleet, having witnessed this scene, was struck dumb with fear.
On this day, Longyang Princess returned to Longyan.
