My Italian

Remember [New] for a second,! Cruz of the Prime Minister's Office has been here many times, but as the master, this different feeling makes this new Prime Minister feel unusual, and every grass and tree here feels unusual.

Of course, even more unusual is the difference in identities.

"prime minister!"

"Your Excellency Prime Minister!"

"Lord Prime Minister!"

In the conference room of the Prime Minister's Office, the new and remaining cabinet ministers greeted Cruz, and their implicit attitudes are very telling.

"Everyone!"

Cruz looked at the many faces in front of him. This is the candidate for his next cabinet, and it is also the pillar of the future government. "This is the first cabinet meeting I chaired. I also believe that everyone here has a desire to work hard for the kingdom. I also have this. I hope that in the future, you can cooperate sincerely to bring the kingdom Build stronger.”

Although the opening speech of the meeting was brief, it was carefully refined by Cruz. On the one hand, he expressed his thoughts on governing, and on the other hand, he expressed his expectations for the cabinet.

"Clap clap clap!"

Unsurprisingly, the applause was the response of the cabinet ministers to the new prime minister.

To the applause, Cruz signaled to stop, and then the meeting room fell silent.

"Everyone, let's move on to today's proposal, some tax changes."

As Cruz's voice fell, everyone present showed shock in the eyes. Isn't this the first meeting of the new cabinet that everyone should meet, familiar and familiar, why are they discussing things so soon?

…………

The sun gradually turned to the west, and the cabinet ministers walked out of the Prime Minister's Office one after another. Everyone's expressions were similar and serious. It is already obvious to tell others that there is a problem with this first meeting today.

There is indeed a problem. In today's meeting, in addition to taxation, several proposals were discussed, all of which concern people's livelihood. For the Prime Minister's unconventional move, the cabinet ministers still can't figure out their thoughts, and these proposals that the Prime Minister put forward have not passed, the Prime Minister does not seem to care too much about this, it is more like coming up with proposals Let everyone know.

After today's meeting, the ministers will definitely not be able to sleep well, and they must think about the Prime Minister's intention in this regard.

Of course, some people can fall asleep. For example, the representatives of the navy and army will not be troubled by this matter.

"Admiral Yagier, why don't you come and sit with me."

The Minister of War, Admiral Simone, who walked out of the Prime Minister's Office, opened his mouth and extended an invitation to his naval colleagues.

"Okay, how about some coffee from your War Office."

As for Simone's invitation, Yagier complied with a sip. As for whether to taste the coffee or not, only these two people know.

The prominent five-story building on Koch Street is the new office of the War Department, the last project prepared by the old Marshal Cadorna while he was alive. Since it is the last wish of the old marshal, the construction of this new building cannot be slowed down. In the second year of the old marshal's death, the new army office building was completed.

"Try our Army's coffee."

In the office, Simeone was greeting Yagier warmly.

"It tastes good, not so bad."

After taking a sip, Yagier commented on the coffee with a dashing expression.

"It seems that the reputation of our army coffee is not good in the navy!"

...

Talking like bragging and farting is definitely not the will of the two heads of the navy and army.

No, Simone, who took the initiative to invite the other party, didn't have so much shrewdness, or was not so particular about it.

"Admiral Yagier, what do you think about the next financial allocation."

Seeing the Minister of War talking about business, Yagier immediately looked shocked. "How else can you look at it, the funding from the Ministry of Finance will definitely be tilted towards your army, and our navy can only pick up some leftovers."

Although there is no news from the government's side, and even the discussion has not started. But who are these two people, it has long been known that the government will focus on expanding its arms and preparing for war. However, although it is to expand the military and prepare for war, it also has a focus.

Unlike before, this time the army had the last laugh in the military expansion. According to the instructions given by someone in the palace, the next expansion of the army is mainly aimed at the army. The army needs to gradually expand the current army of 320,000 to 600,000. The final plan is that after a conflict between Italy and a neighboring country in the future, Italy can complete the war preparations of one million troops in one month, 1.5 million troops in three months, and 2 million in one year.

It should be noted that this military expansion plan needs to ensure that the expanded troops are well equipped and well trained. This means that the Italian Army must have all kinds of equipment and materials used by the 1.5 million troops at all times.

This is a lot of overhead. The weapons, ammunition, and equipment needed to equip so many people need to be purchased by the Army. In addition, the construction of personnel training and reserve forces is also a heavy responsibility. It can be said that the Army has already started preparations before the expansion.

And this time Simone invited Admiral Yagier to come, but also has a purpose.

"Admiral Yagier, although our army is more profitable this time, I don't know if your Excellency has noticed. In addition to the expansion of your navy, the kingdom has prepared all available resources to invest in our army."

Having said that, Simeone looked at the other party and continued. "We are all soldiers. Of course, we know what Wang Guoru's huge investment is for, so who do you think our next goal is?"

"French or Austrian."

In the face of Simone's question, Admiral Yagier gave his answer.

However, facing the answer of the Admiralty Minister, Simeone was not satisfied.

"Your Excellency Yagier, is it necessary to be so cautious in this answer?"

Saying that, Simone walked to the wall with the map and said. "According to the current situation, there are two alliances in Europe, Britain, France and Russia against us and Germany. The current expansion of the kingdom is aimed at confrontation between these alliances. First of all, the key point of this confrontation is the Mediterranean Sea, and the Mediterranean Sea will inevitably It is our country that becomes the main force.”

For Simeone's words, Yagier did not deny it. The Mediterranean has been key in many of the simulations of European confrontation conducted within the Navy ~www.wuxiamtl.com~. The reason lies in the Suez Canal and the Strait of Gibraltar and the Black Sea, which make the Mediterranean Sea a convenient sea passage to communicate with North Africa, Eastern Europe, and Asia.

Whoever controls the Mediterranean Sea will hold the initiative of future confrontation.

"So our military must express enough attitude, and if we participate in this confrontation, then we must ensure that the kingdom gets enough benefits. Our army believes that Corsica and Savoy and Nice will become an inseparable part of the kingdom. In addition, Tunisia and Egypt must also be respected enough."

"Isn't this the job of the foreign secretary, isn't it a good idea to make such a statement?"

Facing Yagier's words, Simone immediately opened his mouth and said. "We are not involved in diplomatic work, but expressing the attitude of the military. Is this also wrong?"

Simeone's words made Yagier a little moved. The military's direct statement of attitude is indeed very attractive.

"If this is the case, then our navy believes that Malta and Tunisia should be an inseparable part of the kingdom. As for Egypt, the interests of the kingdom must also be respected."

Fortunately, these two are still relatively sober, and have never thought about bringing Egypt into the arms of the kingdom.
