"I declare Joint Command's First Order: Annihilate the enemy that comes tonight," Major General Nalesho announced loudly, then he raised his glass, "To victory!"

Having said that, he finished his drink in one gulp and smashed the glass to pieces.

Apart from a few senior officers, most of the officers only now realized what had happened.

Antonio also followed, raising his voice, "To victory!" and drained his glass.

Under Antonio's lead, all the officers lifted their glasses, and with expressions of worry, alarm, or calmness, they toasted.

Major General Nalesho calmly said to his adjutant, "Mr. Kalaman. Signal to beat the drums and prepare for battle!"

The urgent beat of the drums began, and The Glorious entered battle readiness.

The navy officers donned their uniforms, strapped on their swords, and rushed to their posts.
