The Emerald City is in full swing to meet the Royal Navy's counterattack.

Zhang Tuohai also drove the White Bird to Scallop Island.

Scallop Island is just a small island with a population of less than 10,000 people. Most of them are fishermen, and the rest are merchants from merchant ships.

As for Scallop Island, Zhang Tuohai was too lazy to deal with the ones that didn't exist, so he directly let Moriel ride Alduin to the sky above Scallop Island.

Seeing the giant dragon hovering in the sky, the people on Scallop Island recalled the years when they were under the control of Longya, and hurriedly greeted Moriel with the etiquette of the time when Longya was under control.

With Zhang Tuohai's demonstration, Moriel directly followed suit, caught the shadow governor and financial officer sent by the empire on Scallop Island, and let the aborigines on Scallop Island accept their names one by one.

Then the corpse was announced to the world, and the flag was changed to show the return of Longya.

Under the coercion of the giant dragon, Zhang Tuohai and Moriel were in a rut, and they took down twelve city-states in three days, restoring most of Longya's power.

It's just that the momentum stopped at Ironman Island.

Ironman Island has no resources, it is barren and poor, it was originally on the fringes of Longya's sphere of influence, but it happened to be in the territory and it was directly occupied, and it didn't matter much.

The only thing that counts as resources on Ironmen Island is people, and because of their bravery in battle, they are called Ironmen.

After being brought under the rule of the Empire, the Empire took a fancy to the ironmen's combat capabilities, and specially trained an infantry regiment with the ironmen as the foundation and core, plus several mercenary regiments.

This became the Ironborn's biggest source of income.

Therefore, seeing the dragon coming, the ironborn did not change their flags, but raised their weapons to resist.

"What should I do?" Looking at the ironmen with spears in the air, Moriel didn't know what to do.

It has always been smooth sailing, but unexpectedly hit a nail in this place.

"I have enjoyed greater benefits in the empire, so I naturally don't think about the past." Zhang Tuohai said lightly.

"If it is normal, there are many ways to deal with it, you can put it on hold, you can make profits, you can invest in improving their lives, and make them feel better under our rule than in the empire, and naturally they will love us."

"It doesn't take a single soldier, it just takes time and money."

Zhang Tuohai said lightly.

"Unfortunately, what we lack most now is time. The news of Longya's return has spread, and everyone is watching, wanting to see how you do it. If an ironman stops us, we will give up. Leave it alone, then all the people will no longer be afraid of us, they will secretly collude with the empire and betray you in exchange for a chance to live."

"Aren't they afraid of dragons? Aren't they afraid of my revenge?" Moriel asked.

"This is the crux of the problem. Even a Tie Ming can block you. What else are they afraid of?"

"So, it's not that we are cruel, but that the Ironborn are in a place where they shouldn't be."

Zhang Tuohai said.

"The right of the iron and blood is still a loose federation that looks like a god, it depends on how you choose."

Zhang Tuohai said.

"I see!"

Moryl held Alduin's scales in both hands.

"Blame you for blocking my way! Alduin, kill them!"

Moriel roared loudly.

Alduin, who had been suffocating for a few days, got the order, let out a long roar, and swooped down.

Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-

Looking at the rushing dragon, the ironborn formed a phalanx and raised their spears, throwing them at Alduin at the same time.

This is the phalanx on which they live.

They even defeated Imperial infantry with this phalanx.

However, this hedgehog-like phalanx was useless in front of Alduin.

Alduin rushed down, opened his mouth, and spit out a long flame, from one end of the square to the end of the square.

The entire phalanx becomes coke.

"Destroy everything."

Zhang Tuohai said.

"Understood!" Moryl controlled Alduin to rampage on Ironmen Island, turning the entire island into a fiery purgatory.

Carrying the flag of Tiemindao, Zhang Tuohai and Moriel flew to the nearby coral island.

"That's the end of resistance."

Morrel planted the Ironborn banner upside down in the dirt.

"Submit or die."

Moriel said loudly.

The consul of Coral Island and his officials looked at each other and knelt down to show their submission.

With the news of the destruction of Ironmen Island, Moriel's next journey to gather the original forces of Dragon Cliff went extremely smoothly.

Almost everywhere you go, you can see the loyalty of the local consul.

It was a little smoother than before.

"Sometimes blood is given to prevent more blood from being given."

Zhang Tuohai said in Moriel's ear.

Moriel thought about it and it was indeed the same.

"What should we do next? All the city-states have been recaptured," Moriel said.

"No, there is another place." Zhang Tuohai said.

"Where?" Moriel wondered.

"Dragon Cliff!"

"However, it has been destroyed by the empire, and it has become a ruin!" Moriel said.

"Even if there are ruins, there is also Dragon Cliff. If you want to inherit the name of Dragon Cliff, Longya must be re-occupied." Zhang Tuohai said.

"I see." Moriel nodded.

The Shiratori turned towards the Dragon Cliff.

Dragon Cliff is a rather peculiar island.

The central and eastern parts of the island are plains, with vegetation, water sources and sandy beaches.

In the western part of the island is a towering, almost upright cliff.

There are large and small caves on the cliffs.

When Moriel's ancestors came here and built the city, the dragons were domesticated in the caves on the cliffs.

Because the cliff is full of dragon nests, this cliff is also known as the Dragon Cliff, which gradually became the name of the island and the power.

After the empire captured Longya that year, the city of Longya was burned to the ground, and the residents of the island were sold into slaves, and the island was completely desolate.

Looking at the ruins of the city below from a high altitude, Moriel felt sadness in her heart.

"This is where I grew up. I still remember that there was a pond there. I accidentally fell into it when I was rowing. It is a rockery, and I like to hide there. The grapes near the cliff are the best. I often Take a nap over there..."

Looking at the familiar places, Moriel felt that the scenes of childhood came back to her eyes.

Suddenly, Moriel suddenly stopped.

"No, there are people on this island!"

"Where did you see it?" Zhang Tuohai asked.

"There is a newly built house over there, obviously in the style of the Empire, it was definitely built later, because my family hates things in the style of the Empire, and they would never allow such a building to appear when they were there! "
