Chapter 798: Krull's oil supply must be secured

When the Great Heng Empire decided to help the Kearns gain true independence and freedom, a group of Krull civil and military leaders on the Kingdom Island also shouted: "The Khans have been oppressed by the Gaphians for decades, and they are living in dire straits every day, and now, this situation cannot continue like this!" ”

"Out of sympathy for the people of Khan, and more importantly for the peace of the Blue Star as a whole, it is incumbent upon the Kingdom to help the people of Kenn gain true independence and free them from the oppression of the Gafians in the most expeditious and decisive way possible!"

Of course, after a group of people expressed sympathy for the Kenn, the topic of discussion quickly changed, and a vice admiral of the Kingdom Navy said, "Although we have received some oil supplies from the Orr Kingdom, Olisa, and Mongol, and several small oil fields in our homeland are also being exploited, there is still a huge problem with our oil supply!" ”

"At present, our navy has comprehensively upgraded its power system, and in the past two years, all the new warships in service and the warships under construction have adopted fuel injection combustion equipment, and the demand for oil in the Royal Navy is increasing day by day."

"Not to mention, we have been preparing for the use of pure oil-fired boilers for a long time, and once they do, the demand for oil will increase exponentially!" "At present, our oil supply channels are simply unable to meet our huge oil demand, and the oil reserve plan we have been planning before has not achieved much because of the delay in reaching an oil or heavy oil export agreement with Hengmanzi!"

"At present, our oil supply is very reluctant to meet the market use, and in this case, we have to save a part of it for strategic reserves, and for this reason, our royal navy has postponed the power upgrade and modification plan of the old warships several times!"

In the end, one of the admirals of the Imperial Navy said with a very firm attitude: "The oil supply of the Imperial Navy must be guaranteed, and for this reason, the Imperial Navy will not hesitate to fight any enemy!" ”

Without exception, a similar situation has occurred in both the Kyle and Valia empires, and despite their ostensible claims of the independence and freedom of the Khans, they are all about the security of the oil supply.

One by one, they began to grind their fists, preparing to compete for the oil of the Kingdom of Ken, even if they couldn't swallow it alone, but they also had to strive to get enough share of the oil supply.

Of course, their determination or courage is still not as good as the Daheng Empire, and as soon as the meeting of the Daheng Empire was completed, the second mobile fleet had already been formed, and the warships had already been dispatched to Nanfeng Port to assemble one after another.

At the same time, the army units scheduled to be transferred were also directly drawn from the combat readiness troops, and 40,000 troops were soon transferred, including infantry, artillery, cavalry engineers, baggage, and other arms, to form the Southern Dispatch Army.

The 40,000-strong Southern Dispatch Army will be sent to the Kingdom of Liej in batches on ocean-going passenger ships and even ordinary cargo ships.

These 40,000 troops, plus more than 10,000 people originally stationed in Bova, it is expected that by the time the Daheng Empire will be stationed in Bova Military Base, and the ground forces to deal with changes in the situation will reach more than 55,000 people, and this does not include the navy's sailors and marines, only the army forces.

In order to maintain their oil supremacy, the people of Daheng acted far faster and more determined than other countries, and after a meeting, the Second Mobile Fleet and the Southern Dispatch Force were formed, and at this time, other countries were still discussing how to obtain the benefits of Kean oil.

At this time, the other side of Kean's oil interests, the Gaphians, were like great enemies at this time!

Because they have learned one after another that other major powers are all acting in unison.

It is now clear that several major powers have treated the Kean field as a big piece of fat, regardless of what the owner of the fat meat will think.

Although they were initially happy to learn that a large amount of oil had been discovered along the western coast of the puppet Republic of Kean, they soon began to worry.

Because the Kean oil field is not a hundreds of thousands of tons or millions of tons of oil fields, but a super large oil field with an estimated annual production capacity of more than 10 million tons, and this kind of super large-scale oil field is a benefit on the surface, but in fact it is also a scourge!

Look at the Orr Kingdom in the southern continent, they have been invaded many times because of gold in the early decades, and after they discovered oil, their production capacity is estimated to be only one million tons, but this also directly triggered the invasion of the Krull Kingdom.

After the two-year Orr War, although the Krull Kingdom itself suffered a lot of losses, the Orr Kingdom suffered even greater losses, not only did it give up half of the oil benefits after the war, but also allowed the Krull people to successfully obtain half of the oil production capacity in the region, and they also had to pay hundreds of millions of reparations.

And although their Gafia Empire is also one of the eight powers, its strength is also lost among the eight powers, and it is really not as good as the Orissa Empire.

In the previous Liji Incident, the battle with the Daheng people had already caused them to kill and wound tens of thousands of soldiers and lose more than a dozen capital ships, which greatly damaged the strength of the Olisa Empire's navy.

Because of the failure of the Liej Incident, not only did their strategic plan to continue to annex the Liej Kingdom come to naught, but also allowed the Great Heng people to gain a firm foothold in Bowa.

A Beauwa military base, like a dagger, is always on the heart of the kingdom of Kean, and it is also on the chest of the Gaphians.

If these are just the loss of immediate interests, they can be relieved by slowing down, but the defeat of the Liej Incident has also severely damaged the international prestige of the Gafia Empire, and even hit the self-confidence of their domestic people.

If there was no Lieji Incident, how could the Daheng people quickly send troops in this oil incident, and it only took five days before and after to decide to increase the troops in Bowa.

And several other countries are also grinding their fists, frequently exerting pressure through diplomacy, and one by one they are also secretly making military preparations.

Why were they able to exert pressure and even make military preparations so quickly and unscrupulously?

It's not because of the Liej incident that countries saw the weakness of the Gafia Empire!

Its army, with many advantages in terms of geographical advantage, troops, and logistical supplies, was unable to take a single military base in Bova.

Its navy, if it is understandable that the defeat in the first Battle of Bova was lost, then in the second Battle of Bova, they were the main force, but they were defeated, and the defeat was forgotten, and most of the main warships of the navy were completely buried, so that the strength of the Imperial Navy of Orissa suddenly dropped significantly.

Now, even though it has been more than two years, the Olisa Imperial Navy has still not been able to ease its breath, and its strength is not only the bottom among the eight great powers, but actually not much stronger than the Orr Kingdom Navy!
