After dispatching a group of pirates and sending them back to their rightful sea regions, Fang Yu led his team back towards Yunjiji Island.
Kong Huaao had already led the South Sea Third Army overnight to blockade the area around Ijima.
It might take less than a week to capture Ijima.
However, Ijima is secondary; the main goal is for Fang Yu and Kong Huaao to join forces and completely wipe out over three thousand enemy vessels.
Three thousand vessels are already enough to tip the scales in the Sea Mine War.
Moreover, Fang Yu handed over the Black Snake Gang leader's resources to the military.
The pace of the war has accelerated further, and it is believed that soon the war in the Southern Island Sea Region will quickly come to an end.
Fang Yu stretched lazily, feeling the sea breeze brushing from both sides and unwittingly felt very comfortable.
From Fang Yu's perspective, the end of the war is only a matter of time.
He does not even need to do anything further because, with the military's current advantage and the Lighthouse Association's intelligence resources, this war has little suspense left.
All he needs to do next is wait for the war to end.
The crew aboard the ship, other than Du Ran's melee squad, have all gone into a state of rest. One after another, they slept soundly in the sailor quarters, snoring loudly.
This battle, although the crew with stamina talents provided them with endurance, the continuous combats, especially the last battle, had greatly exhausted the crew.
Not long after the battle ended, they couldn't take it anymore and fell asleep one by one.
Fang Yu also felt tired, so he directly arranged for the crew with melee talents to take the watch onboard while he returned to the captain's cabin.
Back in the captain's cabin, Fang Yu did not rush to sleep; instead, he looked at his panel to review the harvest from this battle.
In this battle, Fang Yu led the troops to first eliminate a total of nine hundred vessels, establishing the most fundamental advantage. Then, he united with Kong Huaao to eliminate all two thousand vessels of the Purification Army.
A total of two thousand nine hundred vessels were destroyed. Fang Yu's vessel eliminated about two hundred, with profits calculated at 20% of this part.
As for the other military and team eliminations, a total of 2,700 vessels were destroyed, with profits calculated at 5% of war proceeds.
Total experience gained: 80,000 (self-destroyed) + 270,000 (team destroyed) + 20% additional profit = 450,000 experience
Total money gained: 26,000 Silver Coin
Military merits: 400 (self-gained) + 1350 (team profit) + 20% additional profit = 2100
This battle's proceeds are enough to let Fang Yu level up one and a half levels.
However, Fang Yu did not rush to level up because... in his panel, there is another special settlement: Commander Settlement.
"[Commander Settlement]: Leading the army to win the Ijima campaign, commander rewards experience: 50,000, entire army experience reward: 30,000, war flag +1, commander receives unique attribute modification Scroll[Crew Teleportation], military merits +1000."
"Main storyline trigger, extra bonuses increased by 20%."
Leading an army in battle, just like the crew completing coordination tasks, as long as the entire army participates, there will generally be special commander settlement rewards.
Previously, when leading the army through harsh terrains, Fang Yu already had one commander settlement.
Now, after leading the army to defeat the enemy, Fang Yu once again receives a commander settlement.
Looking at the commander settlement reward information, Fang Yu said nothing and directly took out the Dice.
"Commander settlement reward, double!"
The Dice rolled in the void, eventually landing on...
3!
Not bad.
The last commander settlement reward was 4 points.
This time the commander settlement reward is 3 points.
Actually, it's a bit lucky in terms of the roll number.
Following the effect of the Dice, all proceeds were tripled.
This time the total experience gained is: 630,000 (panel value: Level 21 (790,000/200,000))
Military merits: 5700 (panel value: Military: D-Class Lieutenant (6760/4000))
The panel's stored experience directly soared to 790,000, and leveling up from Level 21 to Level 22 only requires 200,000 experience.
This means Fang Yu can level up not only to Level 22 but even 23 is not an issue.
Moreover, when Kong Huaao returns with the army, he will settle two task rewards with Fang Yu.
One settlement for defeating the Purification Army.
One settlement for docking the Lighthouse Association resources with the military.
After these two settlements, along with the roll of the Dice, this voyage might directly push Fang Yu from Level 21 to as high as Level 25.
A direct leap of 4 levels?!
For anyone else, it would feel like a fantastical scenario, but for Fang Yu, this is just everyday operation.
Actually, even without the Dice's extra boost, the actions taken during these voyages are already enough to earn Fang Yu considerable reward profits.
Once, in the Lvchun Island campaign, Fang Yu, even as a medium-sized cargo ship, led the army to capture a giant Sea Ore Island, shocking many.
Once in the Ijima campaign, Fang Yu destroyed nearly three thousand enemy vessels and strategically mobilized multiple resources, laying the foundation for the victory in the entire Sea Ore Island campaign.
These two battles, no matter which one, are feats that ordinary captains cannot accomplish!
Which regular Blue Star Captain can achieve this step?
No one!
