Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Chapter 99 Although they are from the navy, they are from Daxia first!

As the head of the Daxia Imperial Navy, Sha Zhenhai looked at the growing navy of Little Sakura next door. He saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart.

How many times have I gone to the household department, and how many times have I come back empty-handed.

Seeing that the Sakura Empire was no longer satisfied with buying warships from Western countries, and instead began to build new warships on its own, but Daxia didn't even have a cruiser, he already felt deeply desperate.

But at this time, Prince Rui Lin Yi actually defeated the John Empire and the Gallic Empire head-on, and also captured two armored cruisers and a dozen destroyers. This gave Sha Zhenhai hope again.

That's why Sha Zhenhai went to Lin Yi with a shy face, hoping that he could transfer the captured battleships to the Imperial Navy, hoping to use them to fill his reputation.

Lin Yi was also open-minded. After learning about Sha Zhenhai's request, he immediately transferred those destroyers that were still intact to the Imperial Navy.

There are not many, there are only 6 destroyers in total. As for the remaining ones, they are still lined up in Jinghai Port, waiting for repairs.

What made Sha Zhenhai even more excited was that Prince Rui got six powerful warships from nowhere, two of which had a displacement of more than [-] tons. There are also the latest cruisers.

If you include these six battleships and the repaired destroyers, Sha Zhenhai feels that it is enough to put together a powerful fleet.

Although it may not be as good as the main fleet of Sakura Kingdom, it can at least regain its say in the eastern waters.

But what he never expected was that Prince Rui would establish a navy on his own. In order to avoid having to fight with him, he even chose a strange name, the First Legion Naval Task Force.

Isn’t this bullying an honest person? Do you really think that changing the name can change the fact that it is the Navy?

But what can he do? The other party was Prince Rui, and he was given a destroyer. He was really short-handed.

After he tried to persuade Lin Yi to assign the new warship to the navy to no avail, he gave up the idea and only thought that Lin Yi could dispatch the armored cruiser promised to him to Jian'an Port as soon as possible.

But even this last hope failed in the end.

The two armored cruisers were actually reclassified to the First Army Corps and followed the six new warships to Yizhou Island.

Sha Zhenhai suddenly felt distressed. He almost felt like he was out of breath. It was hard to calm down my mood.

But now, a telegram was placed on his desk, which immediately made him feel like he was beeping.

Sha Zhenhai walked around in his office, while his adjutant stood aside, not daring to express his anger.

"What a bully! How can you get back what you gave away?" Sha Zhenhai waved his fist in the office.

"Sir, don't be angry, and be careful with yourself." The adjutant on the side looked at the angry Sha Zhenhai and advised him.

When Sha Zhenhai heard the adjutant's words, he immediately turned his head, looked at his adjutant, and asked directly: "Tell me! What do the prince and your majesty mean! Do you think I am easy to bully?"

When the adjutant heard what Sha Zhenhai said, he did not dare to continue.

Sha Zhenhai is a duke and has high qualifications. Even Emperor Zhao Xu needs to be polite to him when he sees him. There are some things he can say, but he can't.

"My lord, perhaps your majesty and the prince also have their own difficulties," the adjutant said.

"Difficulties? Who doesn't have difficulties these days? His first army is suffering, but our navy is not suffering?" Sha Zhenhai muttered, and then walked to a huge navigation chart.

This nautical chart marks the islands and ocean currents in all the sea areas around Daxia. It can be said that this navigation chart is the treasure of Daxia Navy.

Sha Zhenhai stood in front of the navigation chart, looked at the telegram in his hand, and then looked at the navigation chart in front of him, standing for a long time.

Then Sha Zhenhai made a decision.

"Order, all destroyers from Jian'an will go north to Shanghai to join the warships of the First Army! The destroyers must obey the command of Wang Hongchang, the commander of the First Army's naval warfare special team!"

"Sir! Do we really want to hand over the command of the destroyer to Wang Hongchang?" the adjutant said with some surprise when he heard Sha Zhenhai's words.

When Sha Zhenhai heard what his adjutant said, he slowly turned around, stared at the adjutant, and said in a deep voice: "You remember, although I am the governor of the navy, I am first and foremost a soldier of Daxia. people!"

"The purpose of letting the destroyers join Wang Hongchang is to escort the Dongchuan Army to land on Yizhou Island! This time is indeed our best chance to conquer Yizhou Island!"

"Once the Sakura Kingdom reacts, or decides the outcome with the Rakshasa Kingdom, and transports a large number of troops to Yizhou Island, it will be extremely difficult for us to land on Yizhou Island again!"

"In the face of the great rights and wrongs of the country, both the army and the navy should cooperate sincerely! I will not allow such remarks to be heard in the navy in the future."

"If you let me hear it again, then pack your things and get out of the navy!"

Sha Zhenhai looked serious. When the adjutant heard this, he immediately stood at attention and said solemnly to Sha Zhenhai: "Yes! Sir! I understand! I will go and deliver the order first!"

After saying this, the adjutant immediately exited Sha Zhenhai's office.

After the adjutant left, Sha Zhenhai turned his head again and looked at the navigation chart on the wall.

"Brother Xuanren, this is our navy's chance to atone for our sins. I hope you can protect our navy in the sky and be able to defeat the Sakura Kingdom this time and take back the glory that belongs to our imperial navy!"

Sha Zhenhai murmured softly, and there was already a trace of tears in the corners of his eyes.

Just when Sha Zhenhai decided to send a destroyer north to meet Wang Hongchang and escort the Dongchuan Army to land on Yizhou Island, a high-level meeting was also being held in the Sakura Kingdom base camp.

Sakura Empire Prime Minister Yamada Shinzo sat at the main seat of the meeting, looking at Army Minister Sakata Mio and Navy Minister Shimazu Hiroki next to him.

"According to the news from Takeda Hiroshi and Yamamoto Masao, Daxia seems to be thinking of taking advantage of the fire. In this regard, what countermeasures do your Army Ministry and Navy Ministry have?" Yamada Shinzo glanced at Sakata Mio and Shimazu Koki and asked .

Shimazu Koki glanced at Sakata Mio, and then said slowly: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, whether it is Tongliao outside Daxia Pass or Yizhou Island is attacked by Daxia, this responsibility should be borne by the Ministry of War."

"Baga, do you know what you are going to say!" Sakata Sanwei heard Shimazu Koki's words and immediately retorted: "If it weren't for the lack of strength of your navy, could Daxia break through to Yizhou Island? Launch a bombardment of Yizhou City?"

"I think your Navy Department should bear the main responsibility for the destruction of Yizhou City! It was your Navy Department's failure to protect Yizhou Island that led to the current situation!"

"Baga! How dare you slander the great Imperial Navy? Do you still want our navy to guarantee your logistics in Goryeo?"

"Since you said that our navy is not strong enough? Then give up the army's military expenditure! In this case, our Imperial Navy can purchase one or two more warships every year!"
