While the family was celebrating the little girl's breakthrough, the inevitable still arrived.
In mid-February, England, Rakshasa, Izumo, and five other countries issued a joint ultimatum, claiming to have obtained permission from their respective governments to form a united army to attack the Shun Dynasty.
The next day, five "Kalidon" class cruisers from Izumo entered Laizhou Bay.
These vessels were the latest warships produced by Einheit, newly delivered to the Izumo Empire, now serving as the vanguard of the coalition forces of the major powers.
With Einheit's support, the Izumo Navy had already regained its vitality.
In stark contrast, the Zhenhai Naval Forces had not received the funding, and the heavily damaged warships were idling in the military port, still unrepaired to this day.
Only a few outdated torpedo boats were left, which now completely lost the command of the sea and could only watch helplessly as the fleet entered Jinmen Port.
