“Dear Remitto, are you serious?”

Chrysler Aesop, the chief of the Naval Staff of the Imperial Army of Candela, put down his documents and frowned at Reimi Russell, who was full of puzzles.

The deputy chief of staff in front of him is the one he has always admired most, and it has been recognized by everyone as the only candidate for his position as chief of staff of the navy after he retired.

In many cases, he will safely hand over the major affairs of the Naval Staff to Russell for treatment. One is the test of Russell, and the second is the prestige of the Russell in the naval staff, for his future takeover. ready.

Russell has always handled these things very well, and has never made any mistakes, so that Isouri’s chief of staff is very satisfied and assured.

But this time, he submitted the report, but it made Isouri’s chief of staff feel after reading it… some incredible.

What a joke!

Candela Empire is facing the worst crisis in history?

If not changed immediately, will the Candela Imperial Navy completely lose control of all Sea Territory?

This is simply an alarmist!

On this continent, apart from the Marlow Empire, don’t say which country’s navy will threaten the Candela Empire, and even many countries simply do not have a naval!

Even more surprising and ridiculous to the Chief of Staff of Isola is that in this report, the biggest threat is actually claimed to come from… the frigate from the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce!

When I saw this line in the report, the chief of staff of Issori almost spewed out the tea in his mouth.

A Chamber of Commerce, what qualifications are there compared with the dignified Candela Imperial Navy? Can even threaten the Candela Imperial Navy?

However, many years of cultivation and trust in Russell, the Chief of Staff of Issori finally calmed down.

Russell has been with him for more than two decades. He knows Russell very well. He knows that Russell is definitely not an alarmist, and he knows Russell’s deep love for the Candela Empire.

Since he has surrendered this report so seriously, then he will never be deliberately alarmist and sensational.

What’s more, if such a thick report is completely nonsense, it is simply impossible.

However, after reading the full report, the Chief of Staff of Issori fell into deep thought.

He believes that Russell’s report on this report is absolutely true, because Russell certainly does not have to lie to him at all.

But if the report says it’s true, then the fresh sea of ​​the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce escort fleet is so terrifying that it is so amazing.

If a ship made entirely of iron is still okay, then a ship with a total weight of several hundred tons and a larger circle than the thunderbolt-class battleship is completely a fantasy.

Isouri’s chief of staff thought for a long time in his mind, and could not imagine a ship that was described as “a big circle more than the thunderbolt-class battleship, the whole body of steel casting, streamlined shape, and pure white appearance”. What it looks like.

And aside from the appearance, the various novel so-called “Magic Power Guns”, “Magic Repeating Crossbow”, “Magic Rocket” and so on on the ships described in the report are what the hell things?

The Magic Weapons Chief of Staff of Isouri has heard about it, but isn’t this something that only a handful of super-powerful Magicians have? Why does this Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce have so much?

And from the formidable power of these military Magic machines described in the report, they are even more powerful than the legendary Magic weapon.

If even a thunderbolt-class battleship can’t last less than five minutes under such a fierce attack, then the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce escort fleet may be as innocent as the report said.

Thinking of this, Isouri’s chief of staff suddenly thought that there had been a report before, saying that a mysterious fleet appeared on the Sea Territory in the southern part of the empire, fighting pirates everywhere, and pirates on the southern Sea Territory were frightened for a time. Let the entire Sea Territory calm and peaceful.

This mysterious fleet is the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce escort fleet?

“Chrysler, I am very serious.” Russell stared at Isola’s chief of staff, looking serious, slowly nodded: “In fact, from this report, you can not very intuitively feel the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce escort fleet The shocking feeling brought to me. During these half-months and the days when they live together, I saw that they had defeated a pirate and had a very intuitive feeling about the formidable power they played. I am very sure, This fleet has even surpassed this era. If we don’t react quickly, once the Marlow Empire first discovers the existence of such a fleet and equips it with the same sea boat, then we face Marlow again on the endless sea. In the empire, there will be no effort to fight back.”

Seeing that Russell said it was extremely serious, the chief of staff of Issori fell into silence.

After a while, he was gently nodded: “Remitto, I trust your judgment. If this frigate really has such a strong formidable power, then we should of course have it immediately. But an 2 million gold coin … …this price……”

The chief of staff of Issori smiled and shook the head.

“In order for the Imperial Navy to continue to remain strong, the price should not be a hindrance.” Russell said resolutely. “And I think there is still the possibility of continuing negotiations at the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce. After all, they can’t find anyone else to buy these frigates except us.”

Russell’s statement is actually quite correct.

On the entire Sainz Continent, only the Candela Empire and the Marlow Empire, as well as several other smaller kingdoms, are only conditional and require naval preparation.

But with the exception of the Candela Empire and the Marlow Empire, which have the conditions to invest heavily in the naval fleet, it is impossible for other small countries to invest their precious money in this.

The Marlow Empire is located in the north of the continent, too far from Stantin Duchy. It is very difficult for the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce to get in touch with them, so the only customers currently available are the Candela Imperial Navy.

The Candela Imperial Navy has no choice, and the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce has no choice.

“Even if I can negotiate, I think the price is still too high.” The chief of staff of Isorui is not as confident as Russell, and sighs: “Russell, I will tell you a message. I just finished the army three days ago.” The budget meeting of the ministry, according to the meaning revealed at the meeting, the military will cut our naval budget investment in the coming year.”

Russell startled: “Is it necessary to cut? Is there anything wrong? The budget of our military department is already very low. If it is cut again, is it not intended to be a navy?”

The chief of staff of Issori smiled and shook his head: “There is no way, the main strength of the military is concentrated on dealing with the Marlow empire, and the budget is also biased toward the army. In addition, the budget of the empire itself in the military has been declining. In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Army, of course, we will cut our naval budget.”

Russell can only be silent.

As the deputy chief of staff of the Naval Staff, he can not only understand the situation of the Navy, but also know the situation of the entire Imperial Army.

He knew that the overall policy of the Candela Imperial Army was to confront the Marlow Empire, and that the center of gravity had always been on the north side of the empire and against the army at the Marlow Empire.

The Navy has been questioned since its inception, because many people find it difficult to create the Navy.

Now that the empire is reducing the budget of the military, the military will certainly cut the naval budget naturally.

“Chrysler, can you take the liberty to ask, what is the total budget of the Navy in the coming year?” Russell thought about it.

“Well… this is not a secret to you, anyway, you have to know it in a few days.” The chief of staff of Issori extended three fingers. “30 million gold coin, only less, not much.”

“Only 30 million gold coin?” Russell astonished. “There was 50 million gold coin last year, and this is cut in half?”

“The empire’s overall budget for the military has cut 70 million gold coin at once, so in fact our Navy’s budget cuts are much less than the Army…” Isola’s chief of staff smiled and said.

“The problem is that we are very rare, and then cut so much…” Russell frowned, quickly made an estimate in his heart, and then found a problem that made him look gloomy. “According to this, will our navy not only barely maintain the status quo next year?”

“Yes.” Isola’s chief of staff nodded. “So, it’s impossible to buy these frigates with 2 million gold coin…”

Russell couldn’t help but stay.

Although he had previously expected that it would be very difficult to purchase such a expensive frigate because of budgetary problems.

But he did not think of it anyway, the Imperial Navy would be so poor.

If you plan to use the 30 million gold coin budget for a year, you can only barely maintain the status quo. Even if something happens, you can’t make ends meet.

In this case, how can you suddenly buy a large gold coin to buy such an expensive frigate?

After a moment of silence, Russell still felt uncomfortable. After thinking about it for a while, he asked the chief of staff of Issori: “Chrysler, I still insist on my opinion. In any case, the Imperial Navy must be equipped with these frigates. Because only In this way, we can guarantee that the Imperial Navy remains the most powerful navy in this continent.”

The chief of staff of Issori frowned: “The problem is that there is no money…”

“Then squeeze out the money!” Russell stepped forward and sighed. “Chrysler, I solemnly suggest that you cut down the original naval fleet and replace them with this latest powerful frigate!” (To be continued.)
