Chapter 416: Master-Slave Dispute
After explaining his intentions, Eisenway didn't talk nonsense.
In fact, he was originally a person who was not good at talking.
He is a professional soldier, not a diplomat who eats by mouth.
Besides, there's only one thing.
Don't be affected by the attack of the "Prime Minister", to be precise, send the home fleet to intercept this ferocious battleship, and delay the operation of sending troops to Fanyanyang.
If anything, this was the only thing Eisenway did during his time in the kingdom of Bran.
Urge the Royal Navy of Bran to send troops as soon as possible, preferably immediately Fan Yanyang, and then attack Yanhai from Lion Spring City.
This matter has been discussed for as long as the Bran Kingdom has dragged on.
Before Chull moved into the Prime Minister's Palace, that is, after the war with the Empire, the Bran authorities said that they would definitely strengthen their military presence in the Vanyan Ocean.
At that time, the former prime minister of the Kingdom of Bran said this in order to get more free aid from the Nuland Federation.
Lofus did give more aid to the kingdom of Bran because of this.
Not to mention anything else, the Newland Federation began to volunteer after this, sending thousands of army and navy pilots to the Bran Kingdom to participate in the war. By the time the Newland Federation officially entered the war, more than 300 pilots had been killed or missing in battle to defend the kingdom of Bran. Even now, there are nearly a thousand Newland Federation pilots wearing the uniform of the Royal Air Force of Bran and fighting for the Kingdom of Bran.
After Chur came to power, he once again promised to increase his troops to Fan Yanyang.
However, after more than half a year, only thunder was heard and no rain was heard.
Now, the Royal Navy of Bran is holding up the façade of the Fanyan Ocean, and it turns out that there are two "Iron Duke" class battleships built in the last war.
These two battleships were never modernized, they still used coal-fired boilers!
If it weren't for the fact that the other three major signatories wanted to keep more battleships, these two old "Iron Dukes" would have been sent to the battleship slaughterhouse, that is, the shipbreaking yard, ten years ago. It can only be preserved because the Bran Kingdom does not have the money to build new battleships to replace.
Interestingly, the Royal Navy also claimed that because the infrastructure around the base was very backward and the fuel supply was not guaranteed, the two "Iron Duke" class battleships were retained and deployed in the Fanyan Ocean as the absolute main force of the Fan Yanyang detachment.
Feelings, Fan Yanyang is surrounded by primitive natives who have never even seen a factory.
The Nuland Federation has been urging the Bran Kingdom to increase its troops, especially to increase the main fleet, and the Bran Kingdom has been prevaricating.
To say, it is to say that I want to take advantage of this to get more benefits.
But the question is, the Nuland Federation itself is a mud cow crossing the river, what else can it get?
After losing the Battle of the Guia Sea, the Nuland Navy was struggling, or it would not have contributed to the Royal Navy.
Eisenway's heart was like Spiegel.
Chur's Tai Chi on the issue of increasing troops in Fan Yanyang and sending troops to Yanhai is fundamentally related to the strategic interests of the Bran Kingdom.
To put it simply, it is to defeat the Riman Empire first, and then deal with the Liangxia Empire.
Obviously, the position of the Nuland Federation is exactly the opposite.
This is also the place where the two sides have the greatest differences during the strategic planning stage, that is, before the outbreak of the Great War.
It's just that it was the Nuland Federation that had the upper hand at that time.
It is well understood that the strength of the Newland Federation is far above that of the Bran Kingdom, and the Bran Kingdom at that time wanted to live a few more years of peace.
With the situation at that time, if the Liang Xia Empire could be defeated in one fell swoop, even if it was a heavy blow to the Liang Xia Empire, there would be nothing to fight on the Western Continent.
It is precisely because of this that there is a matter of setting up the Narrow Yi Imperial Kingdom and letting the Narrow Yi Imperial Kingdom sneak attack the Liang Xia Empire.
When making the planning, even Lofus thought that no matter how bad the Narrow Imperial Kingdom was, it would be able to hold out for two or three years, and it was even certain that it would inflict heavy damage on the Liangxia Navy.
If this is the case, the Allied army may have surrounded the Liang Xia Empire.
It was precisely because of the serious deviation from the plan, especially the rapid defeat of the Narrow Empire, that the strategic focus began to tilt towards the Bran Kingdom.
The key point is that without the vanguard of the Narrow-Yi Imperial State, it is impossible to quickly defeat the Liangxia Empire.
It would be ideal to first take out the Empire, and then concentrate on besieging the Liangxia Empire.
At least that's what Chull thinks.
It is precisely because of this that Chull insisted on sending capital ships and aircraft carriers to Fanyan Ocean after defeating the Riman Empire, at least the Homman Navy.
As for sending troops to Yanhai, that has to be said separately.
In this regard, not to mention Eisenway, even Lofus is helpless.
The reason is also very simple, the Nuland Navy has suffered heavy losses, losing 3 fleet aircraft carriers, and 1 will take several months to repair, so in the short term, the only thing that the alliance can count on is the Royal Navy of Bran, and it is not wrong to say that it is begging for the Bran Kingdom.
What left Eisenway speechless was that during the last meeting, Chull made an additional request.
If they still fail to convince the Locke colonial government to hand over the few capital ships that have fled to the colony's harbor, they will have to take decisive action to prevent these warships from falling into the hands of the Empire. As long as the security of the homeland is sufficiently guaranteed, the Royal Navy of Bran will immediately send troops to Van Yanyang.
Chull also hinted that Eisenway would consider sending 2 or even 3 aircraft carriers to Fanyanyang after stabilizing the situation.
Perhaps it was because of this that Eisenway did something that he regretted, but he actually said something rash without thinking about it.
When Chull made a request, he directly asked if it was because the Raleigh Kingdom might also become an enemy that he wanted to kill the Raleigh Navy?
As a result, Chull replied that it was necessary!
Then it was proposed in passing that combat operations against the Raleigh Navy should be planned in advance.
All in all, it is necessary to ensure the absolute hegemony of the Bran Kingdom in the North Sunset Ocean and Lu Xinhai, and eliminate any possible worries.
This left Eisenway speechless, but Lofos also gave clear instructions.
In any case, the Royal Navy must send out an expeditionary fleet within the year, preferably in the first quarter of next year.
As for what Chull wants to do, let him go.
In the short term, the Nuland Navy will not be able to contribute, so it can only rely on the Royal Navy of Buran.
According to Lofos's instructions, even if Chull really sent the Lu Xinhai fleet to deal with the Raleigh fleet, he could only pretend that he didn't know anything.
Although the Raleigh Kingdom is a great power on the northern shore of the Luxinhai, it is far from the level of a great power.
If you have to make a choice, you must seize the kingdom of Bran.
Sacrificing a third-rate country obviously won't have any effect. What's more, the Raleigh Kingdom had already shown its willingness to join the Entente before that. Since it is destined to become an enemy, it is a good thing to let the Bran Kingdom strike first, at least to avoid a bitter battle in Lu Xinhai.
It's just that Eisenway made one last effort.
At the beginning, he did not show his hole cards, but emphasized the importance of acting according to the plan, and emphasized that the Nuland Federation would continue to provide support to the Bran Kingdom as promised, and would not say that the Bran Kingdom would suffer losses because it needed to assist the Locke Sand Federation.
Now, he was waiting for Chull's reply.
Of course, Eisenway knew that Chull was an old fox, and he would never let go, let alone make any promises, until he got a big enough benefit.
