In the palace of Norya City, the first capital of the Golden Lion Empire, Prime Minister Salento reported to Emperor Kosno in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it has been confirmed that the navy of the Han and Tang Empires has unsealed a large number of warships that have been mothballed.

These include Journey-class aircraft carriers and Bird's Nest-class aircraft carriers, as well as many missile battleships, missile battlecruisers, missile cruisers, and missile destroyers.

According to the information obtained by the intelligence department, these warships unsealed by the Han and Tang Empire Navy have been modernized, such as the Journey-class aircraft carrier and the Bird's Nest-class aircraft carrier, which are equipped with the latest anti-aircraft missile launchers of the Han and Tang Empires, and the ship electrical weapon systems of these two aircraft carriers have also been upgraded. ”

Emperor Kosno frowned and asked, "Has the intelligence department found out about the army of the Han and Tang Empires, and how big is it going to expand this time?" ”

Prime Minister Salento immediately said: "Although the intelligence department has not found out the specific scale of the expansion of the Han and Tang Empire's army, the Han and Tang Empire's army has suspended the departure of retired soldiers who have completed their service from the army, and has also conscripted soldiers who have been discharged in recent years to return to the barracks, and the scale of the recruitment of new recruits has been expanded several times.

The intelligence department believes that the total strength of the Han and Tang Empire's army will at least double after this expansion, and may even be more. ”

When Emperor Kosno heard this, he sighed helplessly, the Han and Tang Empires, with a population of more than 4.2 billion, were too desperate for their war potential.

The Golden Lion Empire has been encouraging fertility all these years, but the rate of population growth is still not enough to satisfy Emperor Kosno.

Today, the total population of the Golden Lion Empire in the two worlds combined is about 360 million, less than one-tenth of the total population of the Han and Tang Empires.

The army of the Golden Lion Empire, after the expansion of the army during the previous war, has more than 20 million regular troops at this time, but compared with the army of the Han and Tang Empires, it is still a drop in the bucket.

Originally, the total strength of the army of the Han and Tang Empires was at least more than 30 million, and now even if it is doubled, it is far from the limit of the army of the Han and Tang Empires.

If the Han and Tang Imperial Army needs it, it can easily expand the army of 200 million, and gritting its teeth, it is not impossible for the Han and Tang Imperial Army to even make 300 million troops.

Thinking that the army of the Han and Tang Empires could be expanded by 2 or 300 million troops, Emperor Kosno's scalp felt a little numb.

"Salento, what is the current size of the armies of the other five Spirit Nation and the three Elf Nations?"

"Your Majesty, according to the data sent by various countries, the current army of the other five spirit countries and three spirit countries? The total number of troops has exceeded 100 million.

And if you add the troops of our Royal Army of the Golden Lion Empire? The army strength of our nine-nation military alliance will exceed 120 million. ”

Hear the number 120 million? Emperor Kosno's heart couldn't help but feel a little more steady? After all, it was not the Golden Lion Empire that faced the Han and Tang Empires alone, the side of the Golden Lion Empire? There are also 8 allies who are all militarily strong.

Prime Minister Salento then hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, on the side of the army? Even if the Han and Tang Empires expanded their armies? In fact, our nine-nation military alliance also occupies some advantages.

What the minister is worried about is the navy and air force, I am afraid that even if we combine the strength of the nine countries, we may not be able to suppress the navy and air force of the Han and Tang Empires. ”

On the side of the Nine Nations Military Alliance, although the specific strength of the Han and Tang Empire's navy and air force has not been figured out? But for sure? The size of the navy and air force of the Han and Tang Empires was absolutely huge.

Emperor Kosno said helplessly: "The expansion of the navy and air force cannot be as easy as the army.

By the way, what was the reaction of the Liang Yan Empire to join the alliance? ”

"Your Majesty? The Liang Yan Empire refused again, but about the purchase of fourth-generation fighters? The Liang Yan Empire did not directly refuse. ”

"The Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire are not yet able to independently produce fourth-generation fighters, if the Liang Yan Empire is willing to sell fourth-generation fighters? Even if the price is higher, presumably the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire are willing to pay for it. ”

A country that is currently able to produce its own fourth-generation fighters? On the side of the Nine Nations Military Alliance, there are only the Golden Lion Empire, the Red Tiger Empire, and the three elven countries.

The air forces of the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire? Still mainly equipped with third-generation fighters? However, these four beast nations have all purchased some fourth-generation fighters from the Golden Lion Empire and the Red Tiger Empire.

In a large hall of the imperial palace in Lingyang City, the capital of the Liang Yan Empire, Geng An, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army of the Liang Yan Empire, said to Emperor Fan Xin: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that selling some of our country's fourth-generation fighters to those beast countries is absolutely beneficial and harmless to our Liang Yan Empire.

First of all, the price offered by those beast countries is very high, far exceeding the cost price of China's Caifeng fighter, White Eagle carrier-based fighter and Black Eagle carrier-based fighter, and even almost the money for selling 2 fourth-generation fighters is enough to build 3 new fourth-generation fighters.

In fact, the biggest enemy of our Liangyan Empire is the Han and Tang Empires, the so-called enemies of the enemy are friends, our Liangyan Empire sells the fourth-generation fighters to those beast countries, and in the future, on the battlefield, the fourth-generation fighters sold by our Liangyan Empire can cause greater casualties to the army of the Han and Tang Empires, and let the Han and Tang Empires shed more blood.

Finally, through this transaction, the arms trade with the military alliance of the nine countries can be opened.

You must know that judging from the current situation, the military alliance between the Han and Tang Empires and the Nine Nations will inevitably break out again.

Our Liang Yan Empire can take advantage of this war to sell a large number of arms to various countries of the Nine Nations Military Alliance and make a lot of money. ”

As soon as Geng An, commander-in-chief of the Royal Army of the Liang Yan Empire, finished speaking, Wang Gang, commander-in-chief of the Royal Air Force of the Liang Yan Empire, immediately objected: "Your Majesty, the sale of fourth-generation fighters must be cautious.

Our Liang Yan Empire must consider the attitude of the Han and Tang Empires towards this matter, once the Han and Tang Empires are angered, our Liang Yan Empire will be burned. ”

Sun Baogang, commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy of the Liang Yan Empire, echoed and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is also opposed to the sale of fourth-generation fighters to the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire.

Not to mention the reaction of the Han and Tang Empires to this, at present, there is still a very big shortage of fourth-generation fighters in our Royal Navy and Royal Air Force.

You can't just take out the active fourth-generation fighters of our Royal Navy and Royal Air Force and sell them for the sake of making money, right? ”

Emperor Fan Xin pondered for a moment and said, "I feel that this is an opportunity to open the door to arms trading with the Nine Nations Military Alliance.

Now that the Han and Tang Empires and the Nine Nations Military Alliance are already sharpening their knives, the Han and Tang Empires should not have the energy to come to trouble our Liang Yan Empire in a short period of time.

What's more, this time, the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire not only want to buy fourth-generation fighters, but also are willing to buy the third-generation fighters of our Liang Yan Empire, which is also a good opportunity for the Royal Air Force and Royal Navy to upgrade. ”

Geng An, commander-in-chief of the Royal Army of the Liang Yan Empire, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is reasonable, I feel that we can also sell the army weapons and equipment produced by our country and some warships of the navy to the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire.

There is no business in the world that is more lucrative than the arms trade. ”

Emperor Fan Xin asked Prime Minister Zhu Honggui at this time: "Prime Minister Zhu, what do you think of the sale of fourth-generation fighters to the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire?" ”

Prime Minister Zhu Honggui said slowly: "Your Majesty, the minister has no objection to selling fourth-generation fighters to the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire, and even other weapons and equipment, including the warships of the navy.

However, in terms of price, we must report it higher, after all, the arms sales between the military alliance with the nine countries, our Liang Yan Empire has to bear the risk of provoking the Han and Tang Empires. ”

Emperor Fan Xin immediately said: "Then it is decided, the Ministry of Military, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will immediately form a joint negotiation team to negotiate the price with those orcs, and the price must be as high as possible." ”

In the afternoon of the same day, in a study room in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wang Gang, commander-in-chief of the Royal Air Force of the Liangyan Empire, asked Prime Minister Zhu Honggui in confusion: "Old Zhu, why don't you object to this arms sale in the palace today?" ”

Prime Minister Zhu Honggui said in a deep voice: "Fan Xin's character is clear to everyone.

What Fan Xin decides, even if the three of us oppose it, it is impossible to change his mind, and it doesn't matter if I oppose it or not. ”

Sun Baogang, commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy of the Liang Yan Empire, immediately frowned and said, "However, the sale of fourth-generation fighters to the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire is equivalent to enhancing the strength of the Nine Nations Military Alliance.

Now that the family has begun to expand its armaments, the third war between the military alliance with the nine countries will definitely break out. ”

Wang Gang continued: "Listening to what Fan Xin meant, not only the fourth-generation fighters and third-generation fighters, but also some warships may be ready to be sold to those beast countries.

Lao Zhu, what do you say we should do? ”

Prime Minister Zhu Honggui suddenly said with some excitement: "Maybe our task is about to be completed." ”

When Sun Baogang heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, "The family has already regarded the navy and air force of the Liang Yan Empire as their own things, and they will never watch this arms sale come to fruition." ”

Wang Gang also reacted at this time, "This is an opportunity!" This is definitely an opportunity!

Lao Zhu, hurry up and report this matter to the family, maybe Lao Tzu can go to the battlefield in person to teach those orcs and elves a lesson! ”

In the imperial palace of Tiansheng City, the capital of the Han and Tang Empires, the director of the Royal Intelligence Bureau, Hu Yi, took the matter of Liang Yan's empire's preparation to sell weapons and equipment to the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire, and after briefly reporting to Zhou Rui, he hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, Zhu Honggui, Wang Gang, and Sun Baogang jointly sent a telegram, hoping that the subversion plan can be implemented immediately.

Avoid the large number of fourth-generation fighters of the Liang Yan Empire falling into the hands of the Black Bear Empire, the Silver Wolf Empire, the Flying Leopard Empire, and the Wild Bull Empire. ”

A cold light flashed in Zhou Rui's eyes and said, "It seems that the strategy of our Han and Tang Empires is going to make some adjustments. ”

At present, the air force of the Liang Yan Empire has more than 6,000 third-generation fighters and more than 2,000 fourth-generation fighters, and the navy of the Liang Yan Empire has tens of thousands of third-generation carrier-based fighters and more than 1,000 fourth-generation carrier-based fighters.

The combined air force and navy of the Liang Yan Empire had about 20,000 fighters, and Zhou Rui had already taken these 20,000 fighters as his own.

Now when he heard that the emperor of the Liang Yan Empire was going to sell his things to his enemies, how could Zhou Rui agree, and his original good mood suddenly disappeared.

Zhou Rui's good mood is because the New Year's gift package given by the lottery system on January 1, 1577 is a five-star lottery card, and Zhou Rui used this five-star lottery card to open a large number of weapons and equipment of the navy, land and air forces, and the rewards exceeded any previous five-star lottery card.

Zhou Rui drove a full 38,000 fourth-generation fighters from this five-star lottery card, of which only the American F-14 Tomcat carrier-based fighter and the American F-18 Hornet carrier-based fighter drove 7,000 each.

The remaining 24,000 fourth-generation fighters include American F-15 fighters, American F-16 fighters, Russian MiG-29 fighters, Russian Su-27 fighters, French Rafale fighters, Dongying F-2 fighters, Huaxia J-10 fighters, Huaxia J-11 fighters and Huaxia J-16 fighters, a total of nine fourth-generation fighters equipped for the Air Force.

In addition, 15,000 third-generation fighters have been launched, including Huaxia J-8 fighters, Dongying F-1 fighters and Russian MiG-25 fighters, with 5,000 third-generation fighters each.

Although the comprehensive performance of the Huaxia J-8 fighter, the Dongying F-1 fighter and the Russian MiG-25 fighter has some gaps compared with the fourth-generation fighter, it is not powerless in air combat.

Therefore, in order to prepare for the war, the Royal Air Force of the Han and Tang Empires this time, in addition to the nearly 30,000 third-generation fighters in active service, also unsealed all the more than 40,000 third-generation fighters that had been sealed as strategic reserves.

In other words, the 15,000 third-generation fighters issued by the lottery system this time can still be equipped with the Royal Air Force of the Han and Tang Empires.

The army has launched a total of 12,000 Huaxia Type 99 main battle tanks, 12,000 American M1A2 main battle tanks, 12,000 Russian T-80 main battle tanks, and 12,000 Apache helicopter gunships.

The Navy's ships flew 36 U.S. Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carriers, 72 U.S. Ticonderoga-class missile cruisers, 72 Russian Glorious-class missile cruisers, and 180 U.S. Burke-class missile destroyers.

In addition, there are 180 American Perry-class frigates, 180 British Type 23 frigates, 180 German Saxony-class frigates, 180 German Type 214 submarines, 180 Dongying Canglong-class submarines and 180 Russian Amur-class submarines.

Just the weapons and equipment issued by this five-star lottery card can improve the strength of the Han and Tang Empire's navy, land and air forces a lot.
