I built an armada.

Don’t you know that the current Longxia tribe is no longer in its weak era, but has already entered the golden age of rapid rise, and will continue to develop at a high speed.

The people of Donghuang still want to use the old way of thinking to deal with the Longxia tribe, which can only be said to be wishful thinking.

Captain Dong's words undoubtedly brought a huge psychological shock to Onodera Mai, and a huge wave of emotions rose in her heart, and she felt numb all over.

Especially Captain Dong's last sentence, "Since we have lost the war, we must accept the price of defeat!", made Onodera Mai feel a strong sense of humiliation.

Endless pain quickly spread throughout his body, so much so that he subconsciously raised his hand to cover his heart.

My mouth opened and closed irregularly, trying to let out a hysterical roar to vent my unhappiness, but in the end, I could only make low whimpers from my throat, as if something was stuck in it.

After a moment, he closed his mouth, but his old face turned red!

Although there were many people in the main control room, no one spoke a word at this moment. For them, the choice between life and death was a huge problem, and there was no way to make the right decision!
Mai Onodera walked out of the main control room with heavy steps, stood on the bridge and looked into the distance. Soon his sight was swallowed up by endless darkness. Outside, there was only the roar of waves hitting the hull, like the death knell, which made him upset.

The next moment, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes, took one out, lit it silently, and then took a deep puff.

"Cough cough!"

The moment the cigarette went down my throat, the spiciness caused me to cough violently, but the spark on the cigarette butt was soon swallowed up by the night, as if darkness could swallow up everything in the world.

He knew very well that at the end of the endless darkness, Long Xia's warships were like monsters with their bloody mouths opened wide, ready to devour them at any time, but they were like wounded rabbits and had no ability or strength to resist.

If the destroyer Toriumi had not chosen to self-destruct, perhaps they could have held on for a while. But now it is the only lonely warship left in the vast ocean, and the weapons and ammunition on board are very few, barely enough to fight pirates.

Not far from his sight, the last trace of the destroyer Toriumi slowly sank into the sea under his gaze and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared in that sea area.

He was silently counting down in his heart. There were only twenty seconds, and now ten seconds had passed. That meant that in ten seconds they would be attacked by anti-ship missiles from the Longxia Navy.

The cigarette was not even half smoked when he threw it far into the sea. It soon disappeared without even the cigarette butt being found.

In the main control room, everyone looked at each other, unsure of what decision Mai Onodera would make next.

Finally, someone couldn't stand it anymore and shouted, "Everyone, there are still ten seconds. Are we really going to be sunk by the Longxia Navy? We don't even have the last chance for revenge."

As soon as the words fell, a stubborn person stood up and said, "Isn't it just death? I'm not afraid. It's glorious to die for the Great Eastern Wasteland Empire. The spirit of Bushido runs in our bones, and it is the glory of the empire!"

"Isn't it just a matter of death? Before we die, we will fight the Longxia people and crush them to death at full speed!"

"Cram? Have you seen where the Longxia warship is? This is a foolish dream. We can't even find any trace of the Longxia warship. I ask you how you can ram it? How can you fight it? Are you going to use your mouth?"

"That's right. The Longxia people have locked onto us. We only have a few seconds left. If they open fire, we will be buried in the sea forever. We won't even be able to see our loved ones again. We will die in humiliation forever."

"Then let's just blow ourselves up, just like the Toriumi, even if we die, we won't let the Longxia people capture us. As a soldier of the Donghuang tribe, I can't accept being a prisoner of the Longxia people!"

"Our warships have become spoils of war for the Longxia Navy. This is a great shame for us!"

Many of them had the idea of ​​sacrificing themselves for the country, but none of them put it into action, and no one was willing to stand up and blow up the warship.

"We cannot accept becoming the spoils of the Longxia Navy, but those warships and an aircraft carrier have already become the spoils of the Longxia Navy."

At this time, someone stood up and spoke, without feeling that time was passing quickly.

"Then let's blow ourselves up. This way, we will appear to be willing to die rather than surrender..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a sudden gunshot from outside, followed by a scream: "Captain, the captain shot himself."

Originally they wanted to let Captain Mai Onodera make the decision, but they didn't expect that he suddenly shot himself, obviously not wanting to live anymore.

They couldn't help but feel sad. Their last spiritual support was gone. But now it had come to the final, critical moment and they had no time to feel sad.

There were less than five seconds left before the Longxia Navy's ultimatum came true. They had to make a final decision, and their hearts were in their throats.

Five seconds! Not even enough time to finish a sentence.

The deputy captain glanced at everyone, and decisively took up his post to perform his duties, saying: "Everyone, I am now the highest commander of this ship, and I will act arbitrarily for once. You are all the last hope of our navy, and you have witnessed the various combat methods of our navy and air force."

"You are the future of the Navy, so I want you to survive."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and ordered the signalman, "Quick, contact the Longxia Navy, I want to talk to them!"

He spoke these words extremely quickly, spouting out what he wanted to say as fast as a machine gun.

On the other side of the sea, inside the main control room of the 126-ton destroyer, the command ship of the Second Combat Corps.

The deputy captain, who had been silent, looked at Captain Dong and said, "Captain, the time is almost up. Should we extend the time a little to allow them to make a decision?"

Captain Dong waved his hand gently and said, "No need, I think they will make the right decision."

The deputy captain was stunned for a moment, and it took him a moment to react. The next choice the people of Donghuang would make was actually already determined.

Ever since the Toriumi self-destructed, there has been no movement from the Kitakaze, which proves that all the Donghuang people on the ship are cowards and have long lost the courage to die with honor.

Surrender is only a matter of time. The reason why they didn't make such a choice now is purely a last-ditch struggle that has no meaning. Even if the Beifeng chose to self-destruct, it would not matter at all. For the Longxia Navy, it would just be one less warship captured. They have already achieved such a fruitful result. If they captured that warship, it would be the icing on the cake. If they didn't capture it, it would be nothing.

No matter what choice the people of Donghuang make, it is an acceptable outcome!
The current Longxia Navy is no longer the navy that tightened its belt back then. How much can a Beifeng destroyer be sold for? At most, it can only improve people's lives.

Of course, if it were in the past, people would have snatched it back at all costs, and then sold it to earn income. Wouldn’t people be too poor at that time?
With the progress of the times, the navy has long since changed what it used to be, and the embarrassing situation has become a thing of the past.

Whether a North Wind ship is captured or not does not affect the overall situation, so there is no need to waste too much thought on it.

Next, Captain Dong slowly said, "The Kitakaze is not important, but the Fukuno aircraft carrier is a good thing, a big ship, so we still have to find a way to get it back."

"It's an aircraft carrier after all. We can take it back for repairs and then sell it to the oil-rich countries in the central region, making billions of dollars."

Obviously, Captain Dong still had his eyes on the big ship, the Fukuno aircraft carrier. He couldn't help but think about it because it was too big. After all, it was an aircraft carrier.

The Longxia Navy doesn’t have to use it, but it can sell it after snatching it.

Billions of dollars are just floating on the sea, isn't that a waste? As a Longxia person who has lived frugally all his life, how could he not be jealous?

The navy's military expenditure has been greatly increased, but there is still a huge gap with the Eagle Tribe Navy. This proves that more efforts are needed to raise more money for the development of the navy!
The Kitakaze may be ignored, but Captain Dong of the aircraft carrier Fukuno has already set his sights on it, and he will do everything he can to tow it back no matter what!
"Captain, there are only five seconds left. Shall we open fire when the time is up?" The deputy captain raised his hand and looked at the time.

Captain Dong nodded and said, "Open fire when the time is up. We have more important things to do, so we won't waste time with them."

"understand!"

The second-in-command nodded, then turned and ordered to open fire once the preparation time was up.

At this moment, the signalman's voice suddenly rang out: "Captain, the North Wind requests to speak to us."

Upon hearing this, the deputy captain and Captain Dong looked at each other and both showed an expression of "as expected" on their faces.

Sure enough, at the last critical moment, the other party begged for mercy, otherwise he would not have chosen to talk at this moment.

Otherwise, they would have self-destructed long ago, which would have saved them ammunition.

"Take it." Captain Dong ordered.

It didn't take long before the two sides re-established communication between their fleets.

"Have you made the right choice? To surrender?" Captain Dong asked with a playful look.

The deputy captain of the Kitakaze, Takumi Minamino, frowned and responded in a low voice, "I am the deputy captain Takumi Minamino. Our captain Mai Onodera has committed suicide. I am now taking command."

"Okay, I understand this."

Captain Dong said expressionlessly, "So, what are your options next? I have my hand on the missile launch button, and I don't have time to waste with you."

Minamino Takumi's heart trembled suddenly, and then he said carefully: "We have made a choice, that is, surrender. But there is one thing I must ask clearly."

"Okay, if you have any questions, just ask." Captain Dong said.

"You have captured our destroyers and aircraft carriers, and the sailors on those ships are all dead. Do you understand what I mean?"

After hearing what Minamino Takumi said, Captain Dong naturally understood what he meant. He couldn't help but smile and actually negotiated terms with him.

Actually, it depends on the situation. As for the killing of all the East Wasteland sailors, it was because they would be a nuisance if they were left alive. But now it is different. These people are kept alive as witnesses of history, which can ensure that the East Wasteland people will never admit it.

As long as they capture the Beifeng and the East Wilderness sailors on it, they will enjoy the same treatment as the East Wilderness people captured from Haiyu Island and Weiba Island. They will all be escorted back to the Longxia tribe for interrogation and investigation.

The group of East Wilderness soldiers on the North Wind can be used as witnesses to hold the East Wilderness Tribe and the Eagle Tribe accountable at the future Blue Star Alliance Conference, which will be of great use.

All the soldiers of the Eastern Wasteland had participated in the war. They were not witnesses that could be bought with money. The North Wind was also physical evidence. It was the best historical evidence!

History books will surely record a night like this when the Longxia Navy seized the East Wasteland Tribe’s destroyer Beifeng and a group of East Wasteland Navy soldiers.

With such irrefutable evidence, I believe that even if the people of Donghuang want to whitewash the invasion and whitewash history, it is probably not that easy. They can also slap the faces of those so-called historical nihilists. This is the biggest evidence of the invasion of the people of Donghuang, instead of having to collect evidence of the enemy's invasion themselves as in the past.

The difference between the two is huge, and they are completely different concepts.

No matter how much the people of Donghuang deny it, they can't deny their own people, unless the people of Donghuang are so beastly that they kill all the families of the soldiers who fight for them, leaving no one alive.

However, this would only highlight the Longxia tribe as a country of etiquette, and its international status would rise rapidly. On the other hand, the Donghuang tribe would only be despised!
"I understand. You don't need to explain. I'm glad you made the right choice."

Captain Dong smiled and said, "We will still abide by the prisoner of war regulations. Not only will we give the rescued personnel due treatment, we will also give you the same rights."

At this point in the discussion, the surrender of the North Wind has basically been finalized, and further discussions will only involve discussing the details of the surrender.

No matter what, a warship is always a piece of weapon equipment and is the biggest destabilizing factor. It still takes some effort to capture it peacefully.

Because, who can afford the unexpected situations that happen during the receiving process? (End of this chapter)
