Chapter 761: The Empire Lost Its Face
Compared to the furious chief, the staff quickly regained their composure and rationality. After taking a deep breath, they quickly persuaded him, "Chief, please be patient. After all, this is just the one-sided statement of the leader of the Eastern Wasteland. There must be some exaggeration in it."
"In my opinion, we still need to contact General Cruz at the garrison base to confirm this matter."
"We cannot be used as a tool by others. We need to have our own independent judgment to make decisions that are beneficial to our country. Chief, what do you think?"
He had already realized that the head of the cabinet had chosen this time to deliberately reveal this information to anger the chief, and there must be some evil intention behind it.
Otherwise, how could he deliberately say this at this time?
"confirm?"
The chieftain raised his eyebrows and said unhappily, "The battle report you just reported was obtained from the garrison base, wasn't it?"
Hearing this, the staff was speechless.
The battle report he had just received was indeed sent from the garrison base, and it was confirmed to be accurate many times by the Navy Command before he reported it to the Chief.
If the war reports reported by the cabinet chief were true, wouldn't he be responsible for negligence?
Thinking of this, the staff member still insisted: "Captain, I think you should contact the military in person to confirm this matter."
The chief was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise: "Do you need to contact me in person?"
"Yes."
The aide then briefly explained the reasons, and the chief immediately understood the meaning.
"In that case, I'll contact him personally."
The chieftain naturally didn't want to be led by the nose, so after taking a deep breath, he solemnly ordered, "Contact the garrison base for me. I want to talk to General Cruz."
"Yes!"
The staff immediately took the order.
Under normal procedures, the chief would have to contact Cruz, the head of the Seventh Fleet, through the Navy Headquarters.
This time, the chief directly bypassed the naval headquarters and contacted the fleet commander below.
This is mainly because he is currently unable to determine whether there is a problem with the Navy Command or whether General Cruz deliberately concealed the actual situation.
It didn't take long before the satellite call was directly connected to the Seventh Fleet's garrison base.
At this moment, inside the garrison base.
General Koro was busy discussing with senior military commanders of the East Wasteland tribe whether the air force on the front line still needed to continue fighting, and how many fighter jets the East Wasteland Air Force could mobilize.
After a brief discussion, General Koro decided to adopt the opinion of the East Wasteland Tribe's military and decided to have his own carrier-based aircraft unit accompany the East Wasteland Air Force to the Aleutian Islands Air Force Base to fight back and vent their anger.
In any case, the head of the cabinet has come in person to ask for help. The carrier-based aircraft has already flown halfway, and it would be too inappropriate to turn back halfway, which would be embarrassing.
Less than half a minute after hanging up the phone, the phone rang suddenly, and it turned out to be a call from Heimiya.
Upon learning that the Great Chief wanted to speak to General Cruz personally, General Koro was so frightened that he trembled all over and hurried to the office of Cruz, the fleet commander.
Koro gestured to Cruz with the satellite phone and said, "General, the chief wants to speak directly to you."
Cruz was immediately surprised. He couldn't understand why the chieftain would call him directly when it wasn't a festival. What important matter was there that required him to bypass the Navy Headquarters?
He had no idea why, but that didn't stop General Cruz from answering the phone.
"Big Chief, I'm Cruz."
After some greetings, Cruise introduced himself directly.
The next second, a rather deep voice came from the microphone: "Cruise, tell me honestly, what is the situation on the front line?"
Cruz couldn't help but look up at Koro not far away, his face full of confusion. What happened? He actually had to submit a detailed battle report again. Didn't he do it before?
At this moment, Koro also spread his hands, indicating that he had no idea what was going on and was also confused!
In desperation, General Cruz made a very detailed report of all the battle reports he had received, not daring to miss a single word.
But after he finished speaking, he could tell that the chief was quite dissatisfied.
Obviously, this was exactly the same as the battle report previously reported by the staff. There were no errors or omissions in the middle, and the Navy Command did not conceal anything.
However, the chief still didn't believe it and asked directly: "General Cruz, are you sure there is nothing missing? There are only so many. Didn't we suffer any losses?"
"Great Chief, this is the battle report I have obtained so far, with nothing missing."
Cruz reported in confusion, "I'm sure there's no damage."
"Isn't this the right situation?"
The chief responded coldly, then suddenly changed the subject, "I just got some different news from the head of the cabinet. Would you like to listen?"
"What? The leader of the East Wasteland tribe?"
Cruz raised his eyebrows fiercely, cursing in his heart. Could it be that the old man was holding a grudge against me for not providing timely support because I ordered the aircraft carrier fleet to deliberately slow down? That's why he reported me to the chief?
Damn bastard, I just promised to send carrier-based aircraft to support the Aleutian Islands Air Force Base, but now I’ve let it go?
Just as Cruz was scolding the leader of the East Wilderness Cabinet, the Great Chief also briefly told him the relevant information he had obtained from the cabinet leader.
After listening to it, General Cruz, who was holding the microphone tightly in his hand, stood there in a daze. He didn't say a word for a long time, but his Adam's apple kept moving.
There is such a thing? Fuck, is it true or false?
I was kept in the dark and deceived by that guy Willis?
Cruise couldn't help but look at Koro again, but saw that he was shaking his head vigorously. It was obvious that he didn't know about this either. There was only one possibility that Willis was hiding the truth.
Cruz was immediately overwhelmed, and he hated Willis to the core. He actually concealed such an important battle report, leaving his immediate superiors unaware. Instead, the leader of the East Wasteland Tribe Cabinet reported it directly to the chief. Doesn't this mean that they, the leaders, were derelict in their duties? Deliberately concealing the battle report?
When Cruise thought that it was that guy Willis who was doing this behind the scenes, he had an urge to catch him and beat him up. It was so damn abominable.
After figuring out all these points, Cruz did not hesitate and said, "Please wait for a moment, Chief. I will contact Captain Willis and ask for the details."
"Okay, don't keep me waiting too long."
After saying this, the chief decisively hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, General Cruz quickly shouted to Koro, "Contact Willis as soon as possible."
"Yes, General."
Koro made arrangements quickly and the two sides quickly established contact.
On the other side, it is located above the sea area of the Donghuang tribe.
The speed of the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet is getting slower and slower. Currently, it has not launched any carrier-based aircraft and is only maintaining air patrols.
The speed has obviously decreased from 26 knots to 20 knots, and now it has been reduced to an economic speed of 15 knots. If it weren't for the need to launch carrier-based aircraft, he would probably have wanted to stay where he is.
Obviously, this was not only because of the order from General Koro, but also because Willis actually felt the strong pressure from the Longxia Navy.
So far, no trace of the Longxia Navy's activities has been found, so the situation is very dangerous for them and they may face the risk of being attacked at any time.
Without the Fukuno aircraft carrier fleet of the Donghuang tribe to support them in front, they had to face the Longxia naval fleet directly. This was an invisible pressure, and naturally, it was extremely stressful.
Willis, who had been staring at the dynamics on the radar display, had made up his mind: 19 carrier-based aircraft had already been lost, and no more could be lost! If more were lost, there would be no way to explain it.
Seeing that the radar screen was clear, he raised his head and looked through the telescope at the dark sea in the distance. Willis asked directly, "Did the early warning aircraft and the reconnaissance aircraft find anything unusual?"
"Captain, there isn't any yet. They are expanding the search range." The communications soldier responded quickly.
Willis directly reminded: "Tell them to be careful and not fall into the trap of Longxia Navy!"
"Yes."
The signalman immediately passed on the relevant orders.
At this moment, another signalman said, "Captain, General Cruz wants to talk to you urgently."
Fleet Commander General Cruz? What happened that suddenly required a direct conversation with him?
If there was any explanation, Koro could just convey it directly. There was no need to talk directly. Could it be that his concealment of the battle damage had been exposed?
Despite all his doubts, Willis agreed and went straight to the call.
After the communication between the two sides was established, Willis heard General Cruz's very serious voice: "Willis, I want to ask you, what is the situation on the front line? Tell me the truth!"
Willis' heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He looked around and it was obvious that they had not passed on the relevant battle damage information under his nose. This made him feel relieved.
He tried his best to control his emotions and responded calmly: "General, everything is normal at the moment, no accidents have occurred. We are searching for the Longxia Navy warship with all our strength, and the search is going very smoothly."
"I believe it won't take long to find the Longxia Navy fleet. Give me some time."
Seeing that the other party was still playing dumb, Cruise couldn't help but curse: "You are talking nonsense, this is not the way to be perfunctory to me!"
This was obviously not Koro's voice, but a call from the fleet commander himself.
"Willis, how long do you want to keep this secret from me?"
When Willis heard what Cruise said, a chill suddenly ran down his spine and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Could it be that his secret was really exposed?
After taking a deep breath, he pretended to be calm and said, "General Cruz, I really don't know what I'm hiding from you?"
"Since you don't admit it, I'll just say it directly."
Cruz said in a very low voice, gritting his teeth, "Just a minute ago, the chief called me personally. Do you know why?"
"No, I don't know."
Willis responded cautiously. He felt like he was about to succumb and his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He was so damn nervous.
"We have lost nineteen carrier-based aircraft. Are you still going to hide this?"
When Willis heard Cruise say this, his face turned pale and his whole body twitched violently.
He knew that this matter could not be concealed after all. It was leaked by someone, and the news was directly reported to the chief.
Who the hell is so immoral that all his plans have gone to waste?
"How did the General know this?"
Willis gritted his teeth and asked cautiously.
Next, General Cruz informed Willis of all the relevant information he had learned from the Great Chief. There was nothing to hide in this matter, and he wanted Willis to die with a clear understanding.
Upon learning that it was the leader of the East Wilderness Tribe cabinet who reported the incident, Willis immediately greeted all the female ancestors of the other party in his mind!
If I hadn't sent carrier-based aircraft to assist those useless things of yours, would I have lost 19 carrier-based aircraft? It would have been fine if I hadn't come to settle accounts with you, but you actually stabbed me in the back, what a mean person!
At this moment, he hated the people of Donghuang so much that he wanted to turn his guns around and bombard the Donghuang tribe directly to vent his anger.
If he hadn't been on the phone with General Cruz, he would have really called the head of the cabinet and scolded him.
Seeing that the truth had been revealed, Willis could only helplessly admit: "General, this is my fault. I originally wanted to report it after defeating the Longxia Navy..."
After some explanation, the call ended.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Willis turned towards the East Wasteland Tribe and started to curse: "Those bastards at the cabinet actually reported us behind our backs and framed us. They really deserve to die."
"If the East Desert Navy hadn't been completely wiped out, I would have turned my guns around and sunk them all. I'm so pissed off. Fuck, they're just a bunch of villains, just little devils!" (End of this chapter)
