Chapter 799: The Unconfident Gafian

A Lieji Incident, the offensive and defensive battle of Beauva Fortress, and the two naval battles of Beauva made the whole world see the weakness of the Gafia Empire!

What's more, because of this war, it directly led to the violent turmoil of the Gafia Empire, and the prime ministers of that year were all imprisoned and killed by the opposition.

However, the turmoil within the Gafia Empire did not end with the death of the previous prime minister.

It was the military-backed faction that came to power, but it didn't take long for the signing of the subjugated Liej Treaty to lead to opposition from many people, and under tremendous pressure, the new cabinet was forced to step down after only half a year.

Then there was turmoil within the military of the Gafia Empire, with serious divisions between the navy and the army, and even within the army or navy, there were serious conflicts between radicals and conservatives.

In short, the situation within the Gafia Empire has been extremely turbulent during these two years.

The only one who can still stand tall and not be affected is the royal family of the Gafia Empire.

This is because although the Gafia Empire is not a virtual monarchy, and although the emperor is still the supreme ruler of the empire and has all the supreme power, in fact, it has already begun to retreat into the background after the first reform of the Gafia Empire more than forty years ago and the implementation of the 'election system'.

Their election system is more interesting, unlike the more popular elections in the Krull Kingdom, where parties are formed, and the leader of the winning party serves as prime minister and forms a government.

It is also different from the Kehl Empire's constitutional monarchy system, although the Kehl Empire has an Imperial Council, the Imperial Council is just a decoration, and the actual power is still controlled by the Emperor.

As for the Olisa Empire and the Great Heng Empire, the Oran Kingdom, and the Walya Empire, these four states were traditional centralized monarchies.

The election system of the Gafia Empire is relatively special, they have no parliament, let alone universal elections, but the emperor does not directly control the real power.

They have a so-called election conference with a single objective, which is to elect a new prime minister or remove the current prime minister.

The composition of the election meeting is not based on elections, but is directly composed of the current senior officials and nobles of the military and cabinet.

These people, in fact, the core group of power in the Gafia Empire, argued with themselves, and then elected a prime minister, who was then formally appointed by the emperor to take office, and finally took power.

In this process, the emperor himself could not interfere, even if it was the process of the emperor's appointment, the emperor himself did not need to come forward, because the official in charge of the jade seal directly stamped the appointment letter on behalf of the emperor......

Despite the loss of actual power, the royal family of the Gafia Empire gained greater prestige in their country, and it was believed that the Gafia Empire had fully delegated power to complete the industrialization of the Gafia Empire in one fell swoop and become one of the eight great powers.

For decades, no matter how much they changed in their country, the status of the royal family has never wavered.

However, this method also led to the fact that the internal strife in the Gafia Empire was very fierce, and nothing happened on weekdays, but once something happened, the opposition would immediately jump out and make trouble.

This was evident in the Liej Incident and the two years that followed.

Although after the end of the war, there was a wave of rearmament and the construction of a new navy and army throughout the Gafia Empire, there were many internal strife, so much so that it had little effect.

The so-called army modernization led by the army has promoted smokeless gunpowder small-caliber weapons and large-caliber heavy artillery to build a modern army, but in the past two years, it has only built the framework of a division, and they have not even completed the development and finalization of small-caliber rifles until now, which is the only one among the eight major countries.

Other countries, even the Olisa Empire, have already completed the installation of small-caliber new rifles and small-caliber heavy machine guns in the fourteenth year of Qiansheng.

As for other countries, not to mention, the Krull Kingdom was equipped with small-caliber rifles in the 11th year of Qiansheng, and it was the second country in the world to be equipped with small-caliber firearms, but Kyle and Walia did not complete the research and development and installation of small-caliber firearms in about the 12th year of Qiansheng.

This is true for the Army, not to mention the more costly naval rebuilding program.

That is, in the first six months after the end of the war, life was much better, and when the cabinet that came to power with the support of the military was still in office, the construction plan for a number of new warships, including four battleships, was approved, but in the following more than a year and a half, due to various disputes, only two battleships were approved.

At first glance, there is a plan to build six mixed main gun battleships, but because of the constant bargaining, the funds cannot be guaranteed, so that the first two to start construction have not yet completed the hull construction, and as for outfitting, I don't know when it will go.

This also means that two years after the Liej Incident, they still haven't acquired a brand new battleship with hardened armor, comprehensive protection design concept, and secondary main guns.

What does the constant internal turmoil, the delay in the modernization of the Army and the reconstruction of the Navy mean?

It means that in the eyes of other great powers, the Gafia Empire has been in vain.

If they had discovered the oil of the Republic of Ken before the Liej Incident, other countries would not have acted rashly, and even the Great Heng Empire would not have sent troops so decisively and quickly.

But now, they're moving.

Not to mention the four major powers, even the Olisa Empire is wondering if they can get a piece of the pie, and they all send people to contact the Daheng Empire to see if they can take a ride to get some oil supply, and the Daheng people did not refuse to the Olisa people who came to the door, but also sent people to talk, if there is a chance, the Daheng high-level does not mind secretly cooperating with the Orissa Empire.

Well, although they Orissa and the Great Heng people themselves are also fighting a proxy war, it doesn't mean that they can't cooperate in the face of the Gafia Empire.

After all, the Great Heng Empire, the Olisa Empire, and the Gafia Empire are all representative countries of the low-end industrial system, and there is great competition between them.

At the time of the Liej Incident, the Orissa Empire secretly supported the Daheng Empire, and in order to reassure the Daheng Empire to go south, they even took the initiative to shrink their forces at that time and transfer their fleet back to the port.

Of course, this kind of cooperation can only be a secret cooperation between the high-level of the two sides, and it is not good to make it public, after all, the public opinion of the two countries is not very harmonious, and it is difficult for ordinary people to accept that the two sides are fighting a proxy war with each other on the one hand, fighting for the kingdom of Tannar, and on the other hand, they are joining forces to fight Gafia!

Not to mention that the Olisa Empire is moved, even the Liej Kingdom, which has been bullied by the Gafia Empire, sees that the major powers are now sharpening their knives to slaughter the Gafia Empire, and they are secretly contacting the major powers, wanting to follow the butts of the major powers and take the opportunity to recover the Ken region......

And it is not heartbroken to sell other people's land, empty promises, and directly throw out almost all the interests of the entire Kean oil field.
