Chapter 246: Commander
Tokyo, Japan.
Tokugawa Nobunaga is holding a video conference with dozens of lords and guild presidents in Korean and Japanese game districts via the Internet.
In a large virtual conference room, around a round table, bigwigs from the two countries sat together.
The East Asian naval war has broken out, and he has tied up two powerful game areas to fight for control of the sea with the Chinese game area.
The whole of Southeast Asia also set off a tide of attacking the Chinese game area, and the national war on the land border broke out again, and all the warships owned by the Vietnamese game area on the sea went to sea, cutting off the passage between the southern lord alliance fleet of the Chinese region and the mainland, and all the guilds and lords who declared war on the Chinese game area sent their own fleets to attack the Chinese fleet parked in their territorial waters.
The sudden outbreak of the East Asia Sea Battle has attracted the world's attention, and it is the largest naval battle between players since the Open Beta of the World of Heroes. There are as many as ten directly involved play areas, millions of combatants, and thousands of ships currently operating at sea. Now the great guilds and lords in each game area are vigorously building warships in the rear, and it is expected that when the naval battle reaches its peak, the number of warships fighting in the waters of East Asia may exceed 10,000.
Naval warfare is different from land warfare, and the threshold for land warfare is low, as long as you are willing to spend money and are not afraid of death, you can fight all the time with the population. Naval warfare is very expensive for professionals and funds, and it takes time and money to replenish warships and sailors after a naval battle, so naval warfare relies on a reliable and efficient command system.
At this time, the war on the coast of the Korean game area had already broken out, and until the reinforcements from the Japanese game area arrived, the Korean game area alone was no match for the Chinese game area. Now that the Northern Lords Alliance of China has begun to concentrate the scattered warships and gradually form the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea Ship Group, a command that can directly command these two ship groups is being rapidly formed under the organization of the University Alliance.
Therefore, if the Japan and South Korea game area wants to win the East Asian naval battle, it must also set up a command center to directly command the battle.
Tokugawa Nobunaga convened this meeting to discuss the establishment of a Japanese-Korean joint military headquarters.
As the heads of the major player organizations, the bigwigs also know the necessity of establishing a command center, but only for the commanders...... The Japanese bigwigs want the commander to be a Japanese, while the bigwigs in the Korean game area want the commander to be a Korean.
While everyone was arguing about who would command the fleet, Tokugawa Nobunaga received a message from Yagami-an.
After two calls, Tokugawa Nobunaga slammed it on the table: "Now, everyone, shut up." ”
The conference room fell silent.
Tokugawa Nobunaga looked at the crowd and said, "While we are arguing over the choice of the commander of the Japan-Korea Combined Fleet, I would like to interrupt you and tell you some unfortunate news.
The Boxer fleet, which was pursuing the ruling fleet in the Sea of Japan, was ambushed and destroyed, Yagami-an, his archangels, and the Titans were among the dead, and only a part of the entire fleet escaped with sloops and suffered heavy losses. ”
Yagami-an is defeated!
This is something that no one present has ever thought of.
The King of Fighters fleet has two ultimate creatures, and the total strength after receiving support far exceeds that of the Judgment Fleet, and the Boxer Fleet is still chasing the Judgment Fleet aggressively before nightfall, why has it just been a few hours...... was wiped out.
Is the adjudication fleet so strong?
This news made everyone a little overwhelmed, the encirclement of the Judgment Fleet was the fuse that triggered the entire naval battle in East Asia, everyone thought that the Judgment Fleet that was forced into the Sea of Japan would not be able to jump for too long, but the day did not pass, and their side was first wiped out a very powerful fleet.
Now that the all-out war has not yet begun, the territories and legion stations on both sides of the Sea of Japan are under the threat of the adjudicator fleet, and it is as uncomfortable as having something stuffed in the ass.
Seeing that some people wanted to back down, Tokugawa Nobunaga said: "There is no way back in this war when you declare war on the Chinese game area, think about what Chinese players are doing, if we don't insist on fighting, what will they do to us?"
In fact, our two game areas have reached a life-and-death juncture, and we should help each other and work together.
Although the ruling fleet won a victory for a while, it was impossible for them to have no losses in a naval battle with the Boxer fleet. In the Sea of Japan, we can quickly replenish as much as we have lost, and we can wipe out the adjudicating fleet in a few more battles.
The most important thing now is to set up a command center for the joint fleet of Japan and South Korea, and we have already lost a war against China, and if we continue to lose in the speed of establishing a command center, we will really lose everything.
Therefore, I advise everyone to stop arguing and recommending anyone, and as the initiator and advocate of this war, I recommend myself to become the commander-in-chief of the Japan-South Korea Combined Fleet.
My legion has mastered the design techniques of the brig on the way, and can produce 20 blueprints of the brig per day. In addition, I have contacted some major guilds and lords in the United States and Europe who have mastered the design of brigs, and they all believe that the flying sand and rocks are too strong, and a Chinese game area with flying sand and stones and the resources of East Asia is a threat to their future. Therefore, they are also willing to supply us with drawings of the brig at cost price, and the first batch will be about 100 sheets.
It is expected that from tomorrow, with my output here and the supply from Europe and the United States, we will be able to get 50 blueprints of the brig every day.
These brig blueprints, except for a part of the transfer to the Southeast Asian battlefield, can allow us to quickly form a combined fleet with brigs as the main force.
The entire ocean of the game, the player's naval battles, will be pushed into the era of brig battleship battle.
Of course, the premise of your desire to obtain the blueprint of the brig is to support me as the commander in chief of the combined fleet of Japan and South Korea. ”
……
In the waters of the Spratly Islands in the South China Sea, the Juggernaut fleet is withdrawing from the coast of Malaysia.
Shi Fei set up a chaise longue on the spacious bridge of the flagship, and lay comfortably in it to enjoy the warm sea breeze.
The half-moon cat stood next to him.
"I'm really sorry Legion Commander, I thought I had convinced Hu Liangcai, but I didn't expect him to just lie to me. I have not found any clues in the large-scale maritime operations in East and Southeast Asia against China's game zone, and this is a serious dereliction of duty on the part of our intelligence department. ”
Shi Fei waited for a while before replying, "This sea battle in East Asia has many similarities with the last national war launched by the gold merchants. It is through the principle of leverage, through small-scale and exciting battles to trigger the war mood of the group, so that the war can expand uncontrollably. The initial participants were only a small number of people, and the ships involved in the encirclement of the adjudicator fleet were probably only notified of their true targets at the end. The main function of intelligence is to actively check and fill in the gaps, and this kind of action has obvious targeted intelligence prevention measures, and you do not need to blame yourself for not discovering it.
Now that our enemies are in the light, it is time for you to make a difference. ”
The half-moon cat nodded: "We are now actively carrying out intelligence collection work on various game areas in Southeast Asia. At present, the Vietnamese game area is blocking our land attack in the north, and Hu Liangcai is mobilizing all the warships in the Vietnamese game area to assemble in the waters of the Xisha Islands.
At the same time, Hu Liangcai has contacted other game areas in Southeast Asia and is preparing to organize the establishment of the Southeast Asia Alliance. The Japanese game area provided great support to Hu Liangcai, and he was determined to win the position of leader of the Southeast Asian Alliance.
After the full-scale declaration of war on us in the Southeast Asian Game Zone, the ships belonging to the Chinese region scattered in the South China Sea are retreating, and the main fleets of the Southern Lords Alliance are also on their way to their respective stations.
If the various game regions in Southeast Asia are really united, in terms of overall strength, our Southern Lords Alliance is at a disadvantage, and our dominant fleet is likely to encounter targeted attacks. ”
After listening to the words of the half-moon cat, Shi Fei said, "No, I don't think so. ”
