Chapter 175 The upcoming battle
President Yue Yangyun frowned and said, "We currently have thirty Flame Machinery Divisions, plus your original five Flame Machinery Divisions, a total of thirty-five divisions."
"Fifteen of these divisions are equipped with fifty tanks, not to mention that we also have sixty national defense divisions and nearly two hundred local divisions."
"In addition, we purchased a thousand fighter planes and produced 500 of our own."
"Besides, our navy still has two cruisers. Can't we fight like this?"
"We are capable of fighting even without assistance from other countries."
Vice President Wen Qingxiang shook his head and replied: "Mr. President, have you ever considered that although the surface data looks pretty good."
"But in reality, if our navy confronts the combined fleet of the Eastern Kingdom, it will surely die."
"All they have to do is send out a battleship, and we won't be able to compete with it."
"As for fighter jets, do you think Dongyang has fewer of them than we do?"
"Only the National Defense Division and the Flame Machinery Division can show off their abilities. How much combat effectiveness do those local divisions have?"
At this time, Vice President Wen Qingxiang continued to add: "You know, Shanghai is a coastal city. No matter how good the army's equipment is, it will be useless! Can it withstand the bombardment of cannons and ships?"
"I think it is most reasonable to move various industries from coastal cities to inland areas. Only in this way can we give full play to the greatest advantages of the army and fight a decisive battle with the enemy inland."
President Yueyang Yun responded: "Are you scared?"
Wen Qingxiang said angrily: "What am I afraid of? Everything I do is for the overall situation! If I follow your instructions to command the battle, it will simply be sending our soldiers to their deaths!"
Yue Yangyun retorted: "Now I am the president, this war must be fought!"
"We want to show the world our determination and strength, and perhaps get help from other countries."
Wen Qingxiang said bluntly: "Fuck you, don't think you take yourself seriously just because I call you the president!"
"You're good at political tactics, but in terms of command ability, you can only be a platoon leader at best, and that's already a compliment to you."
Yue Yangyun asked gloomily, "What do you mean by that? Are you trying to cause division?"
When Vice President Wen Qingxiang heard this, he flew into a rage, slammed the table, and responded angrily: "If I wanted to cause division, would I have waited until now?"
"Damn it, I should have fought you to the end and shouldn't have let you become the president!"
"Go ahead and fight me if you want. I want to see how you bear the consequences this time."
President Yueyang Yun was not to be outdone. He stood up, pointed at the other party and said, "If you don't want to fight, you can leave."
"I just don't believe that I can lead the troops to fight. With such excellent equipment, can we not defeat Dongyang Kingdom?"
After hearing this, Vice President Wen Qingxiang sneered and said sarcastically: "Humph, you will definitely fight me, but your chances of getting international assistance are very slim."
"You just daydream all day, thinking about these unrealistic things. But don't regret it later."
However, despite their heated argument, the two men eventually calmed down and began to discuss their battle plan.
After all, they all know that only by unity can they cope with the current crisis.
However, in Qin Ruihua's view, abandoning coastal cities is also the best way to fight.
After all, he had seen this kind of war in his previous life, where there was no air or sea control.
When fighting in coastal cities, no matter how well-equipped the army is, it will be of little use.
The President of the Great State wanted to start this war more for political reasons, mainly to show it to other countries.
As troops from all over the Dazhou Kingdom began to mobilize, their ultimate goal was Shencheng.
However, the troops in the northern region did not move, because the troops there were still responsible for blocking the Dongyang Kingdom's army.
Dongyang State was very curious about the actions of Dazhou State.
They wondered how Dazhou had learned the news, but now that things had come to this, Dongyang had to continue its attack.
The Dazhou Kingdom began to concentrate all its warships in Shencheng, but such a fleet was no match for the Dongyang Kingdom's combined fleet.
The scene came to Yan Country. Marshal Chen Yixin was standing in the palace, reporting the latest situation to Qin Ruihua: "Your Majesty!"
"Based on our observations and intelligence analysis, Dazhou State seems to be ready for a large-scale battle with Dongyang State in Shencheng."
"However, judging from the current situation, this is undoubtedly a risky and even suicidal move."
Qin Ruihua nodded slightly in agreement: "Yes, judging from the current situation, it is really puzzling that Dazhou State would do this."
"Perhaps they overestimated their own strength or underestimated Dongyang's determination, but in any case, this battle may bring huge losses to Dazhou."
"It is even possible that all the elite troops they have trained in recent years will be destroyed."
Marshal Chen Yixin frowned and asked worriedly, "Your Majesty, considering that we have many factories in Dazhou, do we need some assistance?"
"After all, these factories are vital to the economic development of both countries. If they are affected by the war, it will have a significant impact on us."
Qin Ruihua thought for a moment and replied, "There is no need to rush into action for now."
"First of all, it would be good to let the big states have a taste of pain. Perhaps this will help them recognize their own problems and re-examine their strategic deployment."
"Secondly, if they dare to destroy our factory facilities, that would be the fuse for them to provoke a war, and then we would have a reason to directly join the war."
"So, observe for a while before making a decision."
Marshal Chen Yixin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this: "I understand, Your Majesty."
"During this period, we should continue to closely monitor the development of the war and be prepared to respond to possible changes at any time."
"At the same time, we must ensure that our factories in the greater states are adequately protected."
Qin Ruihua nodded and said, "I'll leave this matter to you."
"If they really do something excessive, don't blame us for being rude."
Marshal Chen Yixin responded: "Yes, Your Majesty." Then he turned and left.
Soon, Dongyang and Dazhou were preparing for the war, and other countries were also paying attention to this moment.
Within Prussia, although its annual output ranks among the top five in the world, it is actually facing severe economic difficulties.
Due to huge foreign debts and intensified internal conflicts, Prussia's future was full of uncertainty.
If this continues for a long time, the people of Puru may even face hunger and poverty.
The leaders of Prussia were under tremendous pressure every day and they had to find a solution as soon as possible.
It is estimated that this situation can only last for about three more years at most.
Once this deadline is exceeded, Prussia will fall into an even more difficult situation.
In order to ease domestic conflicts, they may be forced to resort to extreme measures such as war.
Meanwhile, the United States had recently unveiled a new fighter aircraft called the P-36.
However, compared with the Spitfire fighter of Geely and the BF-109 fighter of Prussia, there is a certain gap in the performance of this aircraft.
Not to mention being comparable to Yan Country's advanced fighter jets.
Despite this, other countries did not look down on the United States.
At the same time, Geely is discussing with the United States about the restoration of Australia.
If this plan is realized, Australia will become a region jointly controlled by both countries.
However, whether the country can be successfully restored remains an unknown.
Because in the eyes of other countries, Australia has now become a no-man's land.
Everyone is waiting for Australia's severe weather to improve.
