"Dear Remitto, are you serious?"

Chandras Issori, the chief of the Naval Staff of the Department of Candela, put down the documents in his hand and frowned at the opposite Remito Russell, whose face was full of puzzles. ↖

The deputy chief of staff in front of him is the one he has always admired most, and it has been recognized by everyone as the only candidate for his position as chief of staff of the navy after he retired.

Many times, he will safely hand over the major affairs of the Naval Staff to Russell for treatment. One is the test for Russell, and the second is the prestige of Pesto in the Naval Staff, preparing him for future takeover.

Russell has always handled these things very well, and has never made any mistakes, so that Isouri’s chief of staff is very satisfied and assured.

But this time, he submitted the report, but it made Isouri’s chief of staff feel after reading it... some incredible.

What a joke!

The Candela Empire is facing the worst crisis in history?

If not changed immediately, the Candela Empire Navy will completely lose control of all sea areas?

This is simply an alarmist!

On this continent, apart from the Marlow Empire, don't say that any country's navy will pose a threat to the Candela Empire. Even many countries simply do not have a naval preparation!

Even more surprising and ridiculous to the Chief of Staff of Isola, it is in this report that the biggest threat is actually from... the **** fleet from a shit!

When I saw this line in the report, the chief of staff of Issori almost spewed out the tea in his mouth.

What is the qualification of a chamber of commerce in the district? Can even threaten the Candela Empire?

However, many years of cultivation and trust in Russell. However, the Chief of Staff of Issori finally calmed down.

Russell has been with him for more than two decades. He knows very well about Russell. I know that Russell is definitely not an alarmist, and I know more about Russell’s deep love for the Candel Empire.

Since he has surrendered this report so seriously, then he will never be deliberately alarmist and sensational.

What's more, if such a thick report is completely nonsense, it is simply impossible.

However, after reading the full report, the Chief of Staff of Issori fell into deep thought.

He believes that this report submitted by Russell is absolutely true. Because Russell certainly won't have to lie to him at all.

But if the report says that it is true, then this new Feishang **** fleet of seagoing ships actually has such terrible strength, but it is really amazing.

If a ship made entirely of iron is still right, then a ship with a total weight of several hundred tons and a larger circle than the Thunder class warship is completely a fantasy.

Isouri’s chief of staff thought for a long time in his mind, and could not imagine a ship that was described in the report as “a big circle more than a Thunder-class warship, a whole body of steel casting, a streamlined shape, and a pure white appearance”. What it looks like.

And aside from the appearance, what kind of ghosts are the various novel so-called "magic artillery", "magic flail", "magic rocket" on the sea boats described in the report?

The magic weapon Isouri’s chief of staff is heard, but isn’t this something that only a handful of super-powerful wizards have? Why does this new Flyer have so much?

And look at the power of these military magic machines described in the report. They are even stronger than the legendary magic weapon.

If even a Thunder-class warship can't last less than five minutes under such a fierce attack, then the new Flyer **** fleet may be as reported. Will definitely be invincible on the sea.

Thinking of this, Isouri’s chief of staff suddenly thought that there had been a report before, saying that a mysterious fleet appeared in the southern part of the empire, fighting pirates everywhere, screaming the pirates in the southern waters, and letting the whole time The seas are calm and peaceful.

This mysterious fleet is the new **** escort fleet?

"Chrysler, I am very serious." Russell stared at the chief of staff of Isorui. He looked serious and slowly nodded. "In fact, from this report, you can't intuitively feel the new Flying Chamber of Commerce **** fleet." The shocking feeling brought to me. During these half-months and the days when they live together, I saw with their own eyes that they defeated a pirate and had a very intuitive feeling about the power they played. I am very sure that this The fleet has even surpassed this era. If we don’t react quickly, once we let Marlow Empire first discover the existence of such a fleet and equip it with the same sea boat, then we will face Ma again on the endless sea. When the Los Angeles Empire, there will be no effort to fight back."

Seeing that Russell said it was extremely serious, the chief of staff of Issori fell into silence.

After a while, he nodded lightly: "Remitto, I trust your judgment. If this frigate really has such powerful power, then of course we should have it immediately. But a two million gold coin... …this price……"

The chief of staff of Issori smiled and shook his head.

"In order for the Imperial Navy to continue to be strong, prices should not be a hindrance." Russell is in color. "And I think there is still the possibility of continuing negotiations at the new Feishang Chamber. After all, they can't find other people to buy these frigates except us."

Russell’s statement is actually quite correct.

On the entire Sainz continent, only the Candela Empire and the Marlow Empire, as well as several other smaller kingdoms, are only conditional and require naval preparation.

But with the exception of the Candela Empire and the Marlow Empire, which have the conditions to invest heavily in the naval fleet, it is impossible for other small countries to invest their precious funds in this.

The Marlow Empire is located in the north of the mainland, and it is too far away from the Principality of Stading. It is very difficult for the new Feishang Association to get in touch with them. Therefore, the only customers that can be found at present are only the Candela Imperial Navy.

The Candela Empire Navy did not have a choice, and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce also had no choice.

"Even if I can negotiate, I think the price is still too high." The chief of staff of Isorui is not as confident as Russell, and sighs: "Russell, I will tell you a message. I just finished the army three days ago." The budget meeting of the ministry, according to the meaning revealed at the meeting, the military will cut our naval budget investment in the coming year."

Russell stunned: "Is it necessary to cut? Is there anything wrong? The budget of our military department is already very low. If we cut it again, is it not intended to be a navy?"

The chief of staff of Issori smiled and shook his head: "There is no way, the main force of the military is concentrated on the Marlow Empire. The budget is also biased towards the army. Plus the budget of the empire itself in the military has been Declining, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Army, will certainly reduce our naval budget."

Russell can only be silent.

As the deputy chief of staff of the naval staff, he can not only understand the situation of the navy, but also know the situation of the entire emperor.

He is well aware that the overall policy of the Department of Candela is to confront the Marlow Empire, and the center of gravity has always been on the north side of the Empire and against the army at the junction of the Marlow Empire.

The Navy has been questioned since its inception, because many people find it difficult to create the Navy.

Now that the empire is reducing the budget of the military, the military will certainly cut the naval budget naturally.

"Chrysler, can you take the liberty to ask, what is the total budget of the Navy in the coming year?" Russell thought about it.

"Well... this is not a secret to you, anyway, you have to know it in a few days." The chief of staff of Issori extended three fingers. "Three million gold coins, only less, not much."

"Only 30 million gold coins?" Russell was amazed. "There was 50 million gold coins last year, and this time it was cut in half?"

"The empire's overall budget for the military has cut 70 million gold coins at once, so in fact our navy cut the budget much less than the army..." The chief of staff of Issori smiled and laughed.

"The problem is that we are very rare, and then cut so much..." Russell frowned, quickly made an estimate in his heart, and then found a problem that made him look gloomy. "According to this, will our navy not only barely maintain the status quo next year?"

"Yes." Isola's chief of staff nodded. "So, it’s impossible to buy these frigates with two million gold coins..."

Russell couldn't help but stay.

Although he had previously expected that it would be very difficult to purchase such a expensive frigate because of budgetary problems.

But he did not think of it anyway, the Imperial Navy would be so poor.

If the budget of 30 million gold coins in one year is really barely to maintain the status quo, even if something happens, it will not make ends meet.

In this case, how can you suddenly get a large amount of gold coins to buy such an expensive frigate?

After a moment of silence, Russell still felt uncomfortable. After thinking about it for a while, he asked the chief of staff of Issori: "Chrysler, I still insist on my opinion. In any case, the Imperial Navy must be equipped with these frigates. Because only In this way, we can guarantee that the Imperial Navy remains the most powerful navy on the continent."

The chief of staff of Issori frowned: "The problem is that there is no money..."

"Then squeeze out the money!" Russell stepped forward and sighed. "Chrysler adults, I solemnly suggest that you directly cut off the original naval fleet and replace them with this latest powerful frigate!"
