However, Ling only made a strategic plan in accordance with the intention of His Royal Highness King Qin, and it does not mean that Ling agrees with His Royal Highness's reorganization plan in military affairs. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ling Tianfang's words immediately made Wufeng and Xiao Su both stunned, but they didn't expect that this director of military affairs would actually oppose the military affairs reorganization plan, which was one of the core contents of Wufeng's rectification of military affairs.

"Hehe, Tianfang, give me this set at this time, it's really yours, it's okay, Xiao Tang and Su Qin are both here today, except for Mo Lun, the fly, today your four directors are basically here, let's not discuss the content involving legal affairs today, on these few issues, let's discuss them thoroughly, so as not to slander in the stomach after going down, as long as you can tell the truth, I believe that Li Wufeng will not turn a deaf ear. Wu Feng also intended to enliven up the atmosphere, and teased the other party with a smile.

"His Royal Highness's idea of rectifying military affairs is essentially to vigorously develop the navy and reduce the 6th Army. I firmly support the vigorous development of the navy, after all, our new empire has faced two oceans, there is the old enemy of the Japanese people in the Great Eastern Ocean, and the Great South Ocean is the main channel of our trade routes, and it is also our exit to the West 6 and even the new 6, although there is no specific enemy, but the potential enemy has appeared, especially in the future of the new 6 rights and interests competition, the navy will inevitably play an important role. ”

Ling Tianfang's spirits perked up, two days ago, seeing His Royal Highness the King of Qin's resolute attitude, Ling Tianfang was a little disheartened, if the lord had already made up his mind to weaken the 6th Army in exchange for the exhibition of the navy, then he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to change the other party's attitude, and he even specifically asked the Financial Secretary of the Administrative Affairs Department to understand the current financial situation in Western Xinjiang. Although James did not specifically inform the financial situation of Western Xinjiang, Ling Tianfang learned from Mi Feng, who was there as a guest, and Hai Zheng, the director of the Supervision Department of the Legal Affairs Department, that Liang Chongxin and Cheng Dayou were conducting special operations in the East China Sea and Yanyun, which made Ling Tianfang overjoyed and a little regretful.

Cheng Dayou's behavior Ling Tianfang has some understanding, this person is bold and ruthless, most of the nobles and gentry of Yanyun have to shed their skin with this plague god, but Yanyun is not rich in the first place, and Situ Tai has been here for a long time. I don't think the harvest will be very large, although the East China Sea is a rich area. But Liang Chongxin is too concerned about the prestige of the military, and he will never do that excessively harsh method, but it is a pity that if he changes Cui Xiulai, he is afraid that the reputation of King Cui Yan alone is enough to make the gentry and nobles who are not clean tremble and surrender everything. However, Liang Chongxin is also instructed by His Royal Highness to sit in the East China Sea, and the East China Sea is the heart of the empire after all. The means are too violent, which will inevitably provoke the gentry's emotional backlash, and it will not be beautiful to affect the overall situation. But if you want to come to these two places, the harvest will definitely not be less, especially in the East China Sea, since His Royal Highness intends to keep Liang Chongxin in the East China Sea, he must have obtained some reliable clues, and he can get His Highness's instructions to act, no matter what.

It's these tips. Ling Tian was relieved that he had some bottom, but he had always been worried that His Royal Highness King Qin's attitude was too tough and difficult to convince, but today, when His Royal Highness King Qin said this, Ling Tian was relieved to grasp it a lot more.

"But we should see and acknowledge it. In fact, our new empire is still a great power of six regions, although we are facing the sea on both sides, whether it is the direction of the north and southeast that poses the greatest threat to us, or the west of which we have special economic interests, they are all widely praised six places, the Liboa and the Machihans are still at war with us, and the increasingly powerful Luzon and the Hansen alliance that has been trying to break our balance of interests in the Indo-An region are now in fact integrating into our economic circle step by step, but the alliance of the Chidi and the Ann Ou still poses a lot of pressure on the RopeWe want to make sure that our existing interests and the regions that are about to be integrated into our sphere of interests are not harmed. It is necessary to maintain a sufficiently strong 6th Army. In my personal opinion, the existing 6th Army is still insufficient. Not to mention the reduction of the number of the 6 Army. Of course, Tianfang also understands that His Highness needs to build a strong and capable army, and emphasizing quality over quantity is the direction of development, but with such a vast territory in our new empire, facing so many enemies and potential enemies, in order to achieve the goals set by His Highness for us, excluding the naval factor, the 6th Army can only be strengthened, not weakened!"

"Well, very well, worthy of the military affairs director, it is very good, basically it can be regarded as having figured out my idea, and the 1.5 million 6th Army is not yet satisfied with the implementation of this plan? Tianfang, your appetite is really great, so have you considered whether the financial can afford this factor? As a military affairs director, you can't just care about the needs of the military and ignore the financial support capacity. Wu Feng is not angry, he knows that there will definitely be objections to this matter, especially since the backlash of the military is inevitable, and he is also eager to hear the specific opinions of the military in this regard.

"Your Highness, if we just want to maintain a defensive position, not to mention the strength of the 1.5 million 6th Army, 1.2 million, or even 1 million 6th Army, Ling Tianfang can also do it perfectly, but, as you just said, you are not the master of the defense, and the new empire must maintain an offensive posture externally and obtain the rights and interests that belong to us, then the 1.5 million strength is far from enough. If there are no more than 400,000 elite forces on the northern front, we will not be able to maintain a high-pressure posture against the Liberians, and if the Liberians really unite, this number will need to be increased by at least 200,000. ”

"On the side of the Maqi Khan, 300,000 forces are enough to ensure safety, but it is not enough to start a war, and the eastern part of Sanjiang is still in the hands of Maqi Khan, this is a scar engraved on our faces, if the new empire can't solve this problem, I think the 6th Army, not to mention the use of foreign troops, is difficult to raise its head in front of the people. In addition, such as the Ankun city-state, the Jemero Kingdom, and the Yuejing Kingdom have always been our sphere of influence, and the Ronnesia region is in the same vein as our peninsula region, all of which need to consider the psychological factors of the people, and it is not a long-term solution to drag it on. ”

"Although the Japanese in the east pose a threat to us mainly at sea, Kamchatka, Treasure Island, and the Ryukyu Islands are still occupied by the Japanese people, which is also unacceptable to the people, and at this point it is not only the 6th Army or the Navy that can be solved, I have some new ideas, but they are not yet mature, and I need to plan again and find another time to report to His Highness. But to the east, the 100,000 6th Army should remain a base. ”

"The west is the core area of our new empire's interests, and because it is relatively far away from the heart of our empire, Tianfang thinks that the military forces now stationed there are far from enough to assume their responsibilities. There are only two legions in Northern Luzon and even in the East Tengger region, and they are both second-line legions, which is far from enough, if according to the idea of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, to ensure that our sphere of influence in the Indean and Tengger steppes is not challenged, at least there should be more than 500,000 troops in this area, and there should be more than 200,000 cavalry. ”

Xiao Tang and Su Qin were already counting Ling Tianfang's grand plan with their fingers, as of now, according to Ling Tianfang's preset, at least one million and three hundred thousand 6 troops were already needed, this amount made Xiao Tang and Su Qin both frown, and looking at Ling Tianfang's gushing momentum, I am afraid I don't know how much more it will increase below.

Sure enough, Ling Tianfang didn't stop because of this: " His Royal Highness King Qin also pointed out that we need to intervene in the opening of the new 6 as soon as possible, and now the powerful countries of the West 6 have begun to shift their attention to the new 6 that is increasingly known, we are not as good as the West 6 in terms of geographical location, so we can not be descended, but our 6 territory is too far away from the new 6, to intervene in the new 6, our navy lacks a springboard, and our navy cannot obtain such a springboard by its own strength, so we need the 6 armies to open the way, the Western Peninsula Alliance and the Latin Ocean have suitable ports, but that needs us to fight for it ourselves, so it is indispensable to maintain the necessary military strength in the southwestIn order to achieve our goal as much as possible, it is best to station 200,000 6th Army. ”

"The military force that needs to be defended by Tianfang here alone has reached 1.5 million men, but what about the necessary garrison force in important areas of our country? If the forces of these three aspects are to be prepared, at least 700,000 troops are needed, so Tianfang believes that the upper limit of 1.5 million 6 troops proposed by His Highness cannot complete the task entrusted to our military by His Highness. ”

As soon as Ling Tianfang's voice fell, Xiao Tang and Su Qin couldn't help but gasp, according to Ling Tianfang's assumption, the 6th Army alone would need 2.2 million, which was more than twice that of the regular 6th Army at the end of the Tang River Empire, and the new construction and expansion plan proposed by the Navy was also appalling, it was completely built according to the scale that overwhelmed the surrounding neighbors, such a large expense, wouldn't it immediately crush the finances of the new empire?

Not only did Xiao Su and the others gasp, but Wu Feng also didn't expect Ling Tianfang to put forward such an exaggerated plan, in his estimation that the military's request would not exceed 1.8 million 6 troops at most, he didn't expect that Ling Tianfang would really dare to use the ideas he put forward to change the way to ask for negotiation conditions, far beyond his preset bottom line.
