Time passed slowly. Sky One was getting closer and closer to the capital of Xia Country, Ping Jing. They would arrive in half an hour.

At this moment, near the palace of Ping Jing City, an ancient nine-story building stood quietly. It had stood the test of time.

This building was the headquarters of the Chinese Navy. It was built in the 1970s and had a history of 60 years.

In the office of the Chief of the Navy, an admiral, three vice-admirals, three rear admirals, and seven admirals surrounded the leather sofa, talking endlessly.

They were the navy chief Su Dinghai, the coastal squadron commander Zhao Guoxian, the voyage squadron commander Yang Bingyou, the Pacific squadron commander Zheng Haili, and three major generals.

"Old sir, you are the head of our navy. Aren't you going to reveal some insider information to me?”

Zhao Guoxian, the commander of the coastal fleet, looked at Su Dinghai with resentment and continued to complain,"

" Although the coastal fleet roams the coastal waters all year round and does not have many opportunities to make contributions, it cannot be disbanded just like that!”

" Not fighting a war and not making any contributions does not mean that the coastal fleet is useless, nor does it mean that we are useless. If the coastal fleet is gone, how am I going to answer to the tens of thousands of navy officers and soldiers?”

Immediately after, Zhu Rihe, the deputy commander of the coastal fleet, stood up. He looked at Su Dinghai and said,"

"Old Commander, you're also from our coastal fleet. His Majesty must have been fooled by Amilijian. When His Majesty comes to the navy, you can help him persuade him!”

Around him, the commanders and deputy commanders of the other two fleets also voiced their reasons for not disbanding the coastal fleets one after another.

Everyone was persuading Su Dinghai to take the lead while they followed him steadily.

They had no choice. If the sky fell, they could only let the tall Chief of the Navy hold it up while they helped hold it up from behind.

Yesterday, the 40 billion yuan compensation for nuclear abandonment made the navy's top brass happy for a long time.

The navy was the military with the highest military expenditure in Xia country. Perhaps they could get a large amount of military expenditure from His Majesty and purchase a few new ships.

However…

She had just been happy for less than half an hour when a bolt of lightning struck.

His Majesty had reached a verbal agreement with Amilijian to disband the coastal fleet and focus on economic development.

They knew.

Xia country's economy was indeed delayed by the military.

However, China was an island country, and China had many benefits overseas.

No matter how one looked at it, this big knife of disarming couldn't cut down the navy! If they wanted to attack, they would attack the Army and Air Force.

The army, in particular, was not very useful, but it had 200,000 people. The navy unanimously agreed that the army should be reduced by half.

"What are you arguing about? What are you all doing?" Su Dinghai reprimanded loudly as his gaze swept past the faces of the six generals one by one, finally stopping on Zhao Guoxian.

Su Dinghai and Zhao Guoxian looked at each other for a while before Su Dinghai smiled bitterly."I don't want to see the coastal fleet become history either, but China is not the Dragon Country. Our future potential is too low. No matter how we develop, can we still surpass the Northern Bears? Surpass the Dragon Country? The super kingdom of Amelia?"

"Putting everything else aside, if it weren't for the unconditional surrender letter hanging above our heads and all kinds of restrictions, do you really think that our Chinese navy could easily suppress the Japanese navy?”

"That!"

The commander of the voyage squadron, Yang Bingyou, laughed and reminded,""Chief Su, Japan doesn't have a navy. They are the coastal self-defense force.”

Su Dinghai ignored Yang Bingyou's interruption and continued the topic from before.""Japan has a total population of 125.05 million. Last year, its economy totaled 5.1 trillion dollars. Japan's population is six times ours, and its economy is three times ours.”

"As the high-ranking officers of the navy, you should know very well what war potential and industrial conversion ability are!”

"Xia Country, the fifth strongest military country in the world, is only on paper. We can't afford to fight a protracted war.”

"His Majesty must have seen this as well, which is why he chose to transform the economy. This will further increase the national income, improve the standard of living, develop cutting-edge technology, slowly increase the population, and attract more immigrants from the Yan Huang family.”

Although what Su Dinghai said made sense.

However, Zhao Guoxian was still unwilling to give up.

In his opinion, the army was the first to be disarmed.

With the revival of national consciousness, it was impossible for China to use the army to expand its territory. Moreover, China itself was small, and 200,000 soldiers were too many. At least 100,000 soldiers would have to be cut.

Modern warfare did not rely on numbers, but military technology, which meant long-range strike capabilities and interception and anti-missile capabilities.

Looking at the war between the Bear Tribe and the Crow Tribe, the army had already declined. The navy and air force were the future.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guoxian shifted the blame and said,"Sir, we are an island country, and the navy is the core. Even if China needs to transform its economy and reduce national defense spending, His Majesty can't attack our navy!”

"Looking at our country's three armed forces, the navy plays the most important role, followed by the air force. The big stick of disarming has to start with the army, which plays the least role.”

……

Outside the Chief of the Navy's office.

Lin Xuan, who had just gotten off the plane, stood at the door and listened for a while. Because the office door was not tightly closed, there was a gap, so he could hear the conversation inside very clearly.

Disarm?

When did this king say that he wanted to reduce troops?

Disbanding the coastal fleet doesn't mean that the Xia Empire will reduce its forces. Can't you be bolder?

For example, if the navy had better warships, the coastal fleet would change its appearance and become the Atlantic Fleet or the Asanyang Fleet.

The Blue Star had five oceans, the Arctic Ocean and the Southern Ocean could be removed. China already had the Pacific Squadron, the Inshore Squadron became the Atlantic Squadron, and the voyage squadron became the Indian Sanyo Squadron.

No!

The Indian Sanyo Fleet was too unpleasant to hear. It was better to continue using it!

The voyage squadron, the Atlantic squadron, and the Pacific squadron, wasn't that suitable?

Squeak ~ Squeak ~

The door was pushed open.

Lin Xuan walked into the office of the Chief of the Navy, and seven pairs of eyes looked over.

He saw that it was Lin Xuan.

Su Dinghai, Zhao Guoxian, Zhu Rihe, Yang Bingyou, Wu Wanquan, Zheng Haili, Wang Anxu, and the other seven navy leaders all stood up from the sofa and raised their hands to salute.

"Your Majesty!"

Lin Xuan waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be so polite.

……

ps:

Tomorrow at 10 am on the 14th.

It should be around 10 pm that day.

The author would try his best to release more updates later on.
