I built an armada.

In any case, surely the head of the cabinet has some understanding of the details of the war?
In short, he wouldn't lie or deceive people no matter what, right?

Considering the issue from this perspective, the high-ranking officials of various countries couldn't help but begin to doubt the actions of the Longxia tribe. Could it be that the announcement issued by the Longxia tribe's foreign affairs department was just playing word games?
British Village, Downing Street, the Prime Minister's official residence.

Upon receiving the relevant information, Richard from the Military Intelligence Bureau immediately rushed here to report the situation to Prime Minister Antony.

Richard said with a serious expression, "Prime Minister... that's the situation."

After listening, Prime Minister Anthony's face immediately lit up with understanding, and he said with great pride, "Now I finally understand why the Great Chief suddenly stopped answering my calls. There are such complicated reasons behind it."

"In this regard, I think the plan to intercept the Longxia Navy Expeditionary Fleet in the open sea is still feasible."

In an instant, Anthony felt much better, feeling that he could do it again and no longer had any worries.

On this point, he shared the same idea as other high-ranking officials from other countries, believing that the Eastern Wilderness Tribe, as one of the allied forces, would never lie and deceive the world.

In contrast, the White Bear tribe also received the relevant news very quickly.

Kremlin, the Emperor's office.

After listening to the report from Boris, the head of the KGB, Pushkin was at a loss for words.

Previously, Boris Johnson had provided a lot of intelligence, and the final conclusions reached were completely different from those provided by the Cabinet Chief.

Standing by the window, Emperor Pushkin looked up at the star-studded night sky, his expression extremely solemn: "Two different results, two different conclusions. Should I believe the leader of the Eastern Wilderness, or should I believe the Foreign Affairs Department of Dragon Xia?"

"It's really hard to say. Let's wait for the final result."

The two different outcomes also have an impact on their actions within the Europa Sea region.

On the other hand, the Longxia tribe had a different attitude, especially the high-ranking leaders.

Inside the headquarters building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Beijing.

Liu Huaming and three middle-aged men in sharp suits sent by high-ranking officials had already taken their seats, ready to negotiate with the high-level delegation from the Eagle Tribe.

The three people were there to listen in; Ambassador Chen and Liu Huaming from the Navy were the leaders.

The main venue for this online meeting of the Longxia tribe was set up here, with all kinds of cameras and recording equipment ready, just waiting for the agreed time to arrive.

The things happening outside were naturally relayed to this place by the staff, and Liu Huaming laughed as soon as he heard about it.

"Old Chen, did you see that? The Eastern Wilderness leader's spiritual victory method is even better than our Ah Q's. He can actually say such self-comforting words."

After hearing Liu Huaming's words, Ambassador Chen laughed as well: "Your analogy is really apt, but his influence is quite significant. He speaks as if it were the truth. If I didn't know the truth about the front lines, I probably would have believed it."

Liu Huaming laughed and said, "When the results come out, he will become the biggest joke in the world, and in the end, he will probably be dismissed as the head of this cabinet."

At this point, he suddenly changed the subject and lowered his voice, "Old Chen, I have something to tell you."

"What's going on? Why are you being so secretive?"

Ambassador Chen looked on with a puzzled expression as Liu Huaming approached.

"Old Chen, try to prolong the time later."

Upon hearing this, Ambassador Chen's eyes widened considerably, and he looked utterly bewildered.

"Isn't the faster the negotiation process goes on our side, the better? The general public is also waiting for our response," Ambassador Chen said truthfully.

"I've never told anyone else this, so you'd better keep it a secret."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Huaming truthfully replied, "Dingping has gone to the front lines. To prevent any unforeseen events along the way, we need to maneuver as much as possible to ensure..."

Before Liu Huaming could finish speaking, Ambassador Chen slammed his fist on the table, suppressing his anger, and said, "Liu Huaming, do you know you're making a mistake? How could you send Dingping to risk his life? That's the front line! Bullets don't have eyes..."

"You think I didn't stop him? He even convinced Xue Shuai..."

Liu Huaming was not angry. Instead, he patiently explained, leaving Ambassador Chen speechless.

When Ambassador Chen heard that Su Dingping wanted to go alone, he could only say that this was the best option available and that they had to settle for second best.

At the same time, he admired Su Dingping's selfless dedication to scientific research even more.

To have the demeanor of a wealthy man at such a young age is truly a blessing for the nation and the country!
As time quietly passed, the negotiations between the two sides came to an end, and the first round of consultations officially began.

After exchanging pleasantries, Liu Huaming went straight to the point: "According to past practice, the winning side usually receives compensation. I wonder how much you are prepared to compensate us this time?"

These direct words completely stunned General Kurila, a four-star general.

Talking about compensation right off the bat? Isn't that a bit too fast? Aren't people from Longxia known for their roundabout negotiations?

Besides, since our Eagle Tribe was founded, when have we ever compensated anyone? Every time, we've crushed them. Does your Dragon Summer Tribe want to be the first to do so?

"General Liu, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Do you think we have any precedent for compensation?" Kurila retorted, suppressing his anger.

Liu Huaming said bluntly, "So you're saying you're not satisfied with the outcome of this conflict? In that case, let's fight another one. Let's see how many of your aircraft carriers we can sink."

These words hit the nail on the head, infuriating Kurila to the point of near-explosion. It was simply too much!
An hour before the bilateral peace talks began, news of the demonstrations by the people of the Eastern Wilderness, which culminated in the siege of the Eagle Tribe's embassy, ​​spread rapidly, sweeping across the entire planet and causing a huge sensation.

Previously, those countries could deduce some details from the announcements issued by the foreign affairs departments of the Eagle Tribe and the Dragon Summer Tribe. However, the Eastern Wilderness Leader's interference has blurred this already established event, as if it were shrouded in an veil. The high-ranking officials of the various countries were unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood for a time, given the extremely tight secrecy maintained by both nations.

Unless both countries take the initiative to come forward and disclose the true situation on the front lines, directly refuting the false information spread by their cabinet leaders, they will have no way of knowing what the truth is.

However, under the current circumstances, they are skeptical of any one-sided information.

Looking across the entire Blue Star, including the Eastern Wilderness Tribe, no one would know that the Dragon Summer Navy had already defeated the Eagle Tribe Navy within the First Island Chain, relying on its mastery of anti-ship ballistic missile technology, which hit the target every time and directly paralyzed a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier.

However, the true situation has not been disclosed so far and is kept confidential.

Of course, even if the Eastern Wilderness people were eloquent and denied everything, the Longxia tribe still had irrefutable evidence of their defeat, such as the aircraft carrier Fukuno being damaged and still adrift at sea, the destroyer Beifeng, and the Eastern Wilderness crew members on board.

There is physical evidence and witness testimony; the evidence is irrefutable!
No matter how much the people of the Eastern Wilderness try to cover it up, they cannot hide this fact.

The fact that it hasn't been disclosed suggests that Longxia Navy has its own purpose and function; it's just that the time hasn't come to disclose it yet.

Therefore, regardless of the rumors flying around, the leaders of the Longxia tribe remained calm and composed.

On the other side, the military base.

Cruz and Koro, along with many other important staff members, all emerged from the air-raid shelter. Seeing the long-lost open space made them feel much more refreshed.

Especially now that their lives are no longer threatened, they feel much more relaxed, and their mood has become much happier.

While they were still in the air-raid shelter, General Cruz had already given the order that no matter who from the Eastern Wilderness tribe called, they should refuse to answer the phone, even if it was the chief of the Eastern Wilderness.

Therefore, no one answered the phone, whether it was in the general's office, the operations command center, or anywhere else!

Even though General Cruz felt this was somewhat inappropriate, nothing was more important now than the final outcome of the battle on the front lines.

Besides, there was another very important reason: he was utterly fed up with the head of the cabinet for daring to betray him, which instantly ruined his image among the country's top leaders.

Moreover, even if he answers the call, the Cabinet Chief will definitely have a lot of questions to ask, which will annoy him and naturally make him feel bad.

Besides, the higher-ups have already given orders not to disclose anything about the war to the public. Even if the head of the cabinet asks, he can't just give a perfunctory answer, can he? If he speaks out, he'll violate discipline; if he doesn't speak out, the other party will keep pressing him for details.

Therefore, he simply went out of contact and decided to ignore everything.

Now I feel so peaceful and relaxed. It's wonderful to be able to chat and laugh with Koro while tidying up. It's so relaxing and enjoyable, I couldn't be happier.

The two men had already made up their minds to leave the military base and were now just waiting for the outcome of the bilateral negotiations, which would ultimately determine the course of the battle on the front lines. In any case, they knew that defeat was inevitable, and now they were just discussing how to divide the spoils.

Once the results are in, they will have to submit a battle report, admitting their command failures, and then request a transfer, since neither of them wants to stay in the Eastern Seas anymore.

No matter where you go, it's far better than staying in this place and living in constant fear.

The Dragon Summer Tribe is terrifying! They're practically insane! They even think the White Bear Tribe is suddenly much kinder in comparison. That's right, they think that even staying in the Europa Sea area is better than staying in the Eastern Continent Sea!
Seeing that the packing was almost complete, Koro turned to look at Cruise and asked with concern, "General, are we just going to leave like this without saying anything to the head of the cabinet? Isn't that a bit too much..."

"Too what? Too inappropriate?"

Cruise interrupted Koro, replying irritably, "Don't you think we've been used by the Eastern Wilderness people? If the Cabinet Chief hadn't deliberately stirred things up and chosen a location on the Alyu Islands as a second military base, would we have ended up in conflict with the Dragon Xia Navy?"

"How could we possibly suffer such a great defeat? It has become the biggest stain on the resumes of both of us."

"And don't forget, we were betrayed by that old bastard."

It was obvious that Cruise had a deep loathing for the head of the cabinet and wished he could beat the guy up.

Koro wholeheartedly agreed with this; it was simply a matter of professional habit, so he naturally remained silent and listened quietly.

“We are stationed in the Eastern Wilderness tribe for the benefit of our own country. If we are used as pawns and suffer such huge losses, I will definitely be unhappy, and I’m sure the higher-ups feel the same way.”

"Otherwise, why would the higher-ups order us not to have any contact with the people of the Eastern Wilderness, let alone reveal any information to them? Isn't all this the work of that treacherous head of the cabinet? Otherwise, why would we be in such a passive position?"

Upon hearing this, General Koro nodded in deep agreement and said, "General, you're right. It's all the fault of the Eastern Wilderness people. They used us as pawns because of their own historical grudges with the Longxia tribe. They deserve what they got!"

"But this actually benefits us, they'll have to buy weapons and equipment from us again, and we'll make a killing off them!"

He also felt that the Cabinet Chief was the catalyst for this conflict. If it weren't for his meddling and plotting against the Eagle Tribe, they wouldn't have had to get involved in the war, and it would have ended up in this mess. And he even had the nerve to make a phone call! It's already a miracle that he wasn't dragged out and shot.

Just as he finished packing, the intelligence officer suddenly strode in and whispered something in Koro's ear.

After hearing this, Koro's eyes widened, his face filled with astonishment and disbelief.

"Are you telling the truth? Their men surrounded our embassy?"

The intelligence officer quickly replied, "Yes, General, they are demanding an explanation from the head of the cabinet."

"What did the cabinet chief say?" Coro asked curiously.

"That's what the Cabinet Chief said..."

The intelligence personnel quickly provided a detailed report on the situation and then left.

"Oh my god, how could he do this?" Koro felt his worldview shattered, his expression filled with astonishment.

Cruise put down his work and asked curiously, "What happened?" (End of Chapter)
