Fortunately, the military plan he handed over to the Qin Wangfu was not immediately vetoed by His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and His Royal Highness the King of Qin only accepted his military affairs plan but never heard back, until he let himself put down the deployment and arrangement of the northern war situation and wholeheartedly grasped the military deployment Ling Tianfang knew that His Royal Highness the King of Qin seemed to be really preparing for a big move, no, let himself go to the south of the Wuhu Jiangnan and his party, ostensibly to announce the formation of the Tenth Army Corps and jointly deploy the southern defense, in fact, Ling Tianfang knew that His Royal Highness the King of Qin's more important task was to inspect the coastal defense of the south of the Yangtze River and the construction of the Nanyang Navy by himself, and prepare for his southern tour。 Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is Ling Tianfang's intention to figure out His Royal Highness King Qin, although he doesn't dare to say that His Royal Highness King Qin will make the trip in the short term, but Ling Tianfang can be sure that His Royal Highness King Qin's concern for the navy and the sea has far exceeded the attention of the rulers of the past dynasties in this regard, which cannot but cause Ling Tianfang to think deeply. There is still a translation from the Western Continent next to the pillow, Alfred Thayer Mahan's "The Influence of Sea Power on History", until this time Ling Tianfang can still recall the prudence and cherishment of the book presented to him by His Royal Highness King Qin at that time, from the cover and preface of the book, it can be seen that His Royal Highness King Qin is indeed quite fond of this book, not only the cover is worn a lot, but also from the beginning of the preface there are notes written by His Royal Highness King Qin, which should be the character of His Royal Highness King Qin. Ling Tianfang planned to read this book that His Royal Highness King Qin valued so much during this journey, hoping that this book could really open up a new world of his thinking as His Royal Highness King Qin said.

Maritime Navy, could it be that these things are really like what His Royal Highness King Qin told himself, that in the future, the development trend of the continent will gradually shift from the land to the sea? Ling Tianfang sighed softly, His Royal Highness King Qin's interest in the Central and Western Continents was obviously increasing.

According to the intelligence from the western continent, a new land has been discovered in the south of the western continent and the western part of the central continent, it is said that not only the climate is very different from the Laya continent, the land is extremely fertile, and the population on the continent is sparse, most of them are some uncivilized indigenous peoples, and all kinds of plants, animals and mineral deposits are extremely rich, only in the poor narrow strip of coastal land has found a lot of rich gold and silver mines, and there are rich fishery resources along the coast, which is undoubtedly a good news worth celebrating for the people who make a living from shipping and fishing, but because this newly discovered land and the Raya continent are separated by a wide ocean, and the climate of the sea is undoubtedly a huge challenge for navigation, so so far no country has officially entered that land on a large scale, but many countries in the Western Continent and the Central Continent have sent expeditions and expeditions into that land, it can be expected that in the near future, the sovereignty of this land will cause more disputes, Ling Tianfang doesn't know if this is the reason why His Royal Highness King Qin spares no effort to accelerate the expansion of the navy, but he believes that at least this reason has a certain catalytic effect.

It is said that His Royal Highness the King of Qin has ordered Zhong Wenjing, the governor of the South China Sea, to form an expedition and survey team to join this expedition to the New World. Sometimes Ling Tianfang had to admire His Royal Highness King Qin's abundant energy, almost everything he could keep in his mind, clearly organized and prioritized, like this matter, His Royal Highness King Qin even specially reminded himself not to be negligent and despise, and must attract great attention, especially on the issue of establishing a stronghold, His Royal Highness King Qin even clearly instructed that if necessary, he might as well send a naval fleet to travel, as long as he can gain a foothold in the new continent, even if it costs a lot. However, this wish does not seem to be so easy to achieve, the countries stuck in the throat channel of the Central Continent are either neutral countries or belong to the Western Peninsula Alliance, and the Western Frontier Navy has to look at the faces of these countries if they want to enter and exit the Central Continent at will, although they will not cause trouble if they are like a general adventure survey team, but once a warship wants to enter and exit, I am afraid that they will use various reasons to restrict it.

There is a long way to go, Ling Tianfang can feel the heavy burden on his shoulders on his southeast trip this time, although on the surface it seems that he has thrown off the painstaking war planning, but in fact, this kind of long-term planning of the strategic surname needs to bear a heavier responsibility, because it determines the development trend of the entire Western Xinjiang and even the new empire in the future, it can be said that it cannot be ignored at all, even if one of the steps is a little wrong may bring consequences to the entire Western Xinjiang, it will be more than the victory or defeat of an ordinary battle, from the day he accepted the task, Ling Tianfang even felt a little unwilling。

Seeing the military chief sitting alone in front of the cabin window and contemplating, his face was solemn, but several young officers next to him were a little unwilling to be lonely, maybe it was the free atmosphere of the staff department that had too much influence on these young staff officers, they didn't care too much about how the bosses of these bosses thought of themselves in their hearts, as long as they had doubts in their hearts, they would not hold it in their stomachs, and always looked for an opportunity to vent it.

"Lord Ling, you seem to have something on your mind, I don't know if it's inconvenient for you to ask you some questions now?" Although there was a respectful tone of asking for advice in the words, the posture was that no matter whether Ling Tianfang was willing or not, they were all ready to take advantage of this opportunity to discuss with the number one person in the Military Affairs Bureau.

Glancing at this group of young staff officers who were full of passion and impulse, Ling Tianfang even seemed to be in a much better mood, with these young people, exalting words, scolding Fang Xuan, even he felt that he seemed to be a few years younger, this is also one of the main reasons why Ling Tianfang brought a few young staff officers out to inspect, not only can they open their eyes and gain a long insight, but also need to cultivate a group of staff officers who understand the navy in the Military Affairs Bureau.

"Who doesn't have a heart, as long as people live in the world, there will be no snacks one day? But I am very happy to discuss the problem, sitting on this boat and discussing some interesting topics is also a kind of pastime. Ling Tianfang smiled slightly, there was always a hint of stiffness on his somewhat blackened face, even when he smiled.

"Lord Ling, I heard that our main task on this trip to the southeast is to inspect the defense of the southeast, but at this time, a large group of us are not thinking about how to take advantage of the victory to pursue and completely solve the northern army, but we suddenly went to Wuhu and Jiangnan to inspect the so-called defense, is it a little too comfortable?"

Even if the staff officers of these staff divisions were talking to the top boss of the top boss, they were talking to the top boss with this kind of arrogance full of sarcasm, which made Ling Tianfang, who was psychologically even a little prepared, couldn't help frowning, these guys relied on themselves to be in the emperor [***] The Academy of Affairs or the Northwest Military Academy has studied for a long time, and has always looked down on the generals and officers in the army who started with actual combat, even if they are in important positions on the other side, they always have to turn around and prove their difference in front of the other party, no, their performance in front of themselves is the same.

"Yes, I don't think that Lord Bo and other colleagues are responsible for other affairs of the Military Affairs Administration, and His Royal Highness King Qin even personally summoned us to give us a special advice before our trip to the southeast, I think you probably haven't forgotten it, His Royal Highness King Qin can make a special trip to tell us about this inspection in his busy schedule, will everyone think that this is an ordinary inspection activity?" Although Ling Tianfang's face did not change in particular, his tone became stern little by little.

"I see that many of you have a bit of a taste of God first and second, thinking that you have studied in the military academy for a few years, or you have been in the army for two years, and the world's major events are in your eyes, military strategy, military tactics, everything can be mentioned and put down, and you can boast of being a talent that you have not met in a hundred years, hum, I see, if you really want to go to the front line of the battlefield, you may not be able to match a squadron leader who can't read big words, and you have the ability to kill the enemy with real knives and guns, that is the real ability, so that people have nothing to say, maybe some of you will say, let us in the staff department is to give full play to the strengths of our planning and strategy, not badYou may indeed be strong in these aspects, but now that so many of you have been with me for so long, don't you feel blushing when you collectively ask such a childish question?

A burst of slashing words like a rainstorm smashed the stumbling staff officers into arrogance, they can be arrogant in front of anyone, but in front of Ling Tianfang they dare not be too presumptuous, although the words can be argued, but Ling Tianfang is not comparable to their group of guys who can be called novices in terms of military strategy or military deployment, or seniority and age, not to mention that they did not understand that His Royal Highness King Qin vaguely hid a lot of deeper meanings in those words before leaving, but they had some doubts at the beginning, but when it was time to officially leave HanzhongEveryone was overwhelmed by the excitement and joy.

"Lord Ling, listening to what you said, we were indeed a little negligent, His Royal Highness King Qin said a lot of those words at that time were quite vague, we were indeed a little puzzled at the time, but because of the situation at that time, we didn't have time to ask for advice, today listening to Lord Ling say this, we feel that this is strange, I don't know if Lord Ling can solve the mystery in our hearts?"
