In addition, there were 42 naval vessels (including about 3,000 sailors), plus 36 ocean-going vessels from Iron Birch Territory (3,000 people in total due to their larger tonnage), which together formed the southward fleet.
Together with the Coastal Defense Fleet of Great Oak Territory, they annihilated the coastal noble fleet of Suffolk County in the naval battle of April 21, suffering only minor losses (no more than 300 casualties).
They captured more than 40 ships of various sizes and more than 3,000 prisoners of various kinds.
However, 12 old ships were so badly damaged that they were beyond repair and were transferred by Fleet Commander Sodom to the Great Oak Territory Coastal Defense Fleet.
The fleet is currently heading north to prepare for the next phase of transportation south.

The army was then divided into several units. James led 2,000 Cavalry to join 1,000 Cavalry from Great Oak Territory to pursue the remnants of the First Legion.
The allied forces involved in this operation numbered approximately 9,000, along with a contingent of Knight Yellen from Great Oak Territory, totaling over 6,000.
Victor assigned them to two divisions, which were sent to Boler County and Cambridge County respectively. They swept through the loyal nobles in both counties, who had suffered heavy losses, and levied provisions from them.
Victor led the remaining troops of the Southern Marching Legion, along with the main force of the private army of Great Oak Territory, totaling 1,000 men, and marched south to Suffolk County in two routes.
The group of about 8,000 men, led by Lordan, consisted mainly of logistics troops, lightly and seriously wounded soldiers, and prisoners of war (mainly from Cambridge Territory). They remained at Rotten Tree Beach to build a permanent base and then traveled to Golden Sunflower Territory by the Great Oak Territory Coastal Defense Fleet.
Another group of men, led by Victor, escorted prisoners of war south overland to Suffolk County, with their final destination being Sunset City.
