I built an armada.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions immediately turned serious.

After taking a deep breath, Kurila continued speaking seriously.

"This is their second launch of a medium-range ballistic missile, isn't it? But so far, we still don't know whether it's a nuclear missile or a conventional missile!"

"If we assume it's a nuclear bomb every time and then organize a defense accordingly, the cost we pay will be far too high."

"But if we don't go to such great lengths to defend against it as a nuclear weapon, the consequences would be unimaginable if a nuclear bomb were to actually hit."

The senior commanders sitting around nodded in agreement, then fell into deep thought.

They had naturally considered this risk, but they had no way to overcome it.

After crying wolf so many times, when the wolf actually came, no one believed it anymore. At that time, it wasn't just the base personnel who were numb, but even the commanders.

Just thinking about it sent chills down their spines and made their hearts tremble!

Military affairs are always a very serious matter. There is no room for joking in the military. They can never take any chances and must do their best to prevent any mishaps. But doing so would result in wasting manpower and resources.

The most crucial point is that people become numb and lax over time!

Every time the air raid siren has to be sounded, and every time personnel have to be on duty, wouldn't people become exhausted in the long run?
The senior commanders all wore bitter expressions, and sighed inwardly, "This is just too damn difficult!"
Meanwhile, at the Eastern Wilderness Tribe's garrison base, the combat command center.

After learning that the Enterprise carrier fleet was in a relatively safe environment and there was no immediate danger, General Cruise and General Coro were naturally much happier, and a huge weight was lifted off their shoulders.

Now we're just waiting to see what the outcome of the communication between the top executives of both sides will be so they can make the next steps.

The two foreign ministries engaged in a war of words, their rhetoric escalating to the point where they seemed eager to use nuclear weapons to destroy hundreds of the other side's cities and military bases.

However, Cruise knew very well that those were just empty words and would never be put into practice.

After all, this kind of thing happens almost every day on Earth. They even argue with their Western allies, but in the end, they always settle things for the sake of their own interests.
If they were really going to use force, they wouldn't announce it so openly and publicly. This is called taking action rather than talking nonsense. Everyone knows this!
The fact that the Longxia tribe previously launched a medium-range ballistic missile and successfully attacked the target is the best proof of this!

There were no warnings before the launch; they just started doing it without warning.

If there had to be any warning, it was that before the launch, the Longxia Tribe's Foreign Affairs Department issued a notice, but it only said that they would attack the military bases deployed within the Dongzhou Sea Area. At that time, they were so scared that they almost wet themselves, and their legs were shaking uncontrollably.

But in the end, it was the USS Enterprise that was attacked, crippling the carrier fleet.

On the contrary, their garrison base was very safe. Not a single radar alarm was triggered, and everything was as normal as usual without any abnormalities!
However, to take this as an omen would be a stretch, since the military base did not suffer any damage!
It was precisely because of these considerations that Cruise believed that while both sides were talking about using nuclear weapons, it was really just a threat and they would never actually use them.

Regardless, both sides have the capability to deliver nuclear missiles to each other's homeland. Once war breaks out, it will be a mutual destruction, and Earth will also suffer.

Who would be so bored as to destroy the planet Earth and wipe out humanity like the dinosaurs?

"General, we have fought the Longxia Navy to this extent. How will this end? In fact, our strategic intentions have failed."

At this moment, Koro turned to look at General Cruise and said, "If we continue playing, we don't have many cards left to play."

Actually, what he wanted to say was that the Eagle Tribe had already lost so far, and if they continued fighting, the probability of losing would be even greater, since they had not yet discovered the location of the Dragon Xia Navy's front-line fleet.

Of course, he would never say such a thing out loud, and he immediately suppressed this terrible thought deep in his heart, not even giving it a chance to surface!
After pondering for a moment, Cruz said directly, "It's hard to judge at the moment. The fact that the Longxia tribe is currently adopting a strategy of encirclement without attacking proves that our think tank's guess is correct. The Longxia people definitely have something to plot."

"Whether our top leaders will agree to the interests they're after is another matter. After all, we can't satisfy their exorbitant demands."

"There will inevitably be some back and forth, and I think it might just end up just like that."

At this point, he picked up his coffee cup, took a sip, swallowed, and continued, "As things stand, the Dragonxia tribe has gained the upper hand in the conflict. To ensure the safety of the Enterprise carrier fleet, the higher-ups will most likely make concessions."

"Of course, we absolutely cannot give up too much, otherwise we would lose face."

"However, on the other hand, I'm afraid the Eastern Wilderness tribe is going to be in trouble this time, and they deserve their bad luck!"

Clearly, General Cruise had not forgotten the betrayal he suffered at the hands of the Eastern Wilderness Cabinet Chief, and he still occasionally had to think about how to explain things to the Great Chief after the war was over.

In his view, the high-ranking leaders of the Eagle Tribe would sacrifice the interests of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe and exchange them with the Dragon Summer Tribe in order to protect the interests of their own country.

After hearing this analysis, Koro nodded in deep agreement.

In any case, the Eastern Wilderness Tribe has run out of cards to play. Their only source of confidence is their advantageous geographical location on the edge of the Eastern Continent's sea area, which makes it a perfect base for their advance.

After all, the newly formed Fukuno carrier fleet has been completely destroyed, and the Eastern Maritime Self-Defense Force no longer has any warships capable of independent long-range operations. To restore it to its original state, it would take more than a decade of military buildup and massive investment to achieve any effect.

In conclusion, regardless of whether the Dragon Summer Tribe or the Eagle Tribe wins in the end, the Eastern Wilderness Tribe will have to pay a heavy price!
This was destined, and there's no way to change it, not even God!

"General, according to the information we currently have, the high command of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe has blocked information about the destruction of the Fukuno aircraft carrier fleet and the destruction of the military base in the Alyu Islands."

"It seems that the people of the Eastern Wilderness are deliberately kept in the dark about the inside story."

Koro took a deep breath, glanced at the clock, and spoke slowly.

"Isn't that obvious?" Cruise gave him a disdainful look and said irritably, "If those bad news got out, wouldn't the people of the Eastern Wilderness be in an uproar? We're also afraid to spread the news that the Enterprise carrier fleet was damaged, aren't we?"

Koro was so embarrassed by the scolding that he realized he had asked a very stupid question.

After all, it was obvious that if news of their defeat got out, it would have extremely bad consequences, something none of them could afford.

"Actually, we should really thank the Longxia Navy for sinking the entire Fukuno carrier fleet from the very beginning."

Before Koro could speak, Cruise said with a sigh, "If it weren't for this, the fact that our aircraft carrier fleet suffered such heavy losses would probably have become the biggest joke on Earth, and we would have lost all face."

Koro nodded in deep agreement and echoed, "Losing face is a minor matter; I'm afraid the general and I will both be punished by the chieftain, and in the end, we'll probably have to face military court-martial!"

With the entire Fukuno carrier fleet of the Eastern Maritime Self-Defense Force being wiped out in front, the fact that the Enterprise carrier fleet lost more than half of its strength does not seem so serious.

However, the Enterprise carrier strike group had previously lost nearly twenty carrier-based aircraft in one go, but they suppressed the news, and the outside world had no idea what was happening on the front lines.

Unfortunately, the high-ranking officials of the Eastern Wilderness tribe found out about this and immediately reported it to the Great Chief, thus betraying the commanders of the garrison base.

Upon learning of the situation, the chieftain made an overseas call and severely reprimanded them, ordering them to report any subsequent battle reports immediately, or face military law!
Of course, those who betray them will definitely be retaliated against.

Cruz immediately ordered the fighter squadron that was originally going to support the Alyu Islands air base to withdraw, leaving the Eastern Air Self-Defense Force's fighters stranded there. In the end, the head of the cabinet personally called to beg for assistance.

Even so, Cruise verbally agreed, but in reality, he ordered all of his fighters to withdraw and quit.

As a result, the fighter jets of the Eastern Wilderness Air Self-Defense Force had to turn back, and the aid plan for the Alyu Islands Air Base was ruined. This also indirectly led to the complete annihilation of the Alyu Islands Air Base, and even the commander was killed in the bombing!

Since the armed forces of the Eastern Wilderness tribes have been wiped out and are powerless to fight back, intelligence will naturally not be shared with them. As a result, the entire Eastern Wilderness tribe is completely unaware of the current battle situation on the front lines.

"This place has become a hotbed of trouble. If this continues, I feel like my heart won't be able to take it."

Cruise suddenly said something out of the blue, "So, I've made up my mind."

"General, what did you say? What decision have you made?" Koro was stunned, his eyes wide with confusion.

Cruise took a deep breath and said, "I've decided that after the war ends, I'll find any excuse to move to another place, even if it's just to go back home."

As he said this, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

"General, why did you suddenly decide to move to another place? Wouldn't it be better to continue being the retired emperor here?" Koro didn't understand at all. He felt that this place was paradise on earth, far from the emperor's reach, where he could do whatever he wanted.

If you're feeling unwell, just find a few girls from the Eastern Wilderness to serve you and enjoy their kneeling service.

He didn't want to leave such a nice place, but Cruise suddenly wanted to leave. Damn, he really doesn't know how to enjoy life.
I'm emotionally exhausted.

Cruise sighed softly and said something quite meaningful.

Koro paused for a moment, then quickly figured out the key point.

After this battle, the garrison base is no longer safe. If one day the Longxia tribe clashes with the Eagle tribe or the Eastern Wilderness tribe again and launches a nuclear attack, these garrison bases on the front lines will be the first to be wiped off the map.

So, could these commanders still survive? The answer is obvious.

If it weren't for the fact that the Longxia Tribe's naval fleet had split off a portion of its forces to launch an expedition into the European waters, they would have seized the opportunity to launch a sudden attack.

The original plan was to easily subdue the Longxia navy, wipe them out, force the Longxia tribe to sign a treaty under duress, and thus achieve the relevant strategic objectives.

But man proposes, God disposes. The final outcome of the battle completely exceeded everyone's expectations. The whole process was full of twists and turns, making their mood feel like they were on a roller coaster, and they were so scared that they almost had heart attacks.

After all this trouble, wouldn't you be mentally exhausted?

Even after the war ends, two aircraft carrier fleets will be stationed in the waters off Dongzhou, and their troop deployment will be further strengthened, with advanced air defense missiles and anti-missile interception systems installed.

However, the Longxia tribe has already demonstrated through this battle that they are developing anti-ship ballistic missiles, as well as more advanced medium- and short-range ballistic missiles.

As for the navy, who knows how terrifying it will become? If they develop an aircraft carrier fleet, things will be even worse for them.

They have aircraft carriers, but the Longxia tribe also has them, and they also have anti-ship ballistic missiles that the Longxia tribe doesn't have, which can directly attack their aircraft carriers, making all their advantages disappear.

By then, wouldn't the military base be able to be wiped out at any time?

In light of this, Koro's gaze toward Cruise grew increasingly serious, a hint of admiration in his eyes. "He really has foresight."

Whether staying here will lead to enjoying life's pleasures or losing our lives is another matter entirely.

It's best not to stay here, living in constant fear. You'd be better off going to the central region to be a carefree and leisurely traveler.

After this battle, even the Eastern Wilderness tribes were no longer safe, and their garrison bases had become high-risk areas. Koro felt that leaving or staying was no longer a choice! (End of Chapter)
