I built an armada.

Chapter 954 Heaven is going to destroy my Eastern Wilderness tribe!

They started yelling and shouting without any restraint.

The anger of the people of the Eastern Wilderness was completely ignited. They no longer cared about the human wall of security and charged forward like crazy, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

After such a long period of attrition, the number of people gathered around the Cabinet Building was approaching 20,000, almost all of them were angry people from the Eastern Wilderness.

As the number of people surged, so did the anger!
Faced with such terrifying and overwhelming fury, the armed personnel maintaining order, even wearing helmets and heavy protective suits, still felt their hearts pounding with fear.

It's worth noting that once the reinforcements arrived, the number of troops surged to five thousand.

But even when faced with so many angry people who were about to turn the sky upside down, they were still panicked and afraid.

What made them feel like the sky was falling was the news coming from the surrounding area that a large number of people from the Eastern Wilderness had broken through their respective defenses and were converging on the Cabinet Building like a tidal wave.

They could handle 10,000 or 20,000 people, but they simply couldn't handle tens of thousands. They only carried light weapons and didn't have heavy weapons or equipment like armored vehicles.

If things really get out of hand, who can handle it?

"Support! I need support, you idiot! If you don't come soon, our defenses will be breached."

"Calling for backup! We're about to be overwhelmed. We need reinforcements immediately, at least two thousand troops."

"The East needs reinforcements. There are too many rioters, and we can't hold on much longer."

Calls for reinforcements from various districts were pouring in, nearly crashing the command center's phones.

At this moment, everyone in the command center was also frowning. If this trend continued, the defensive line would collapse completely in no time.

Inside the Cabinet Building's main conference room, several cabinet ministers could no longer sit still. They all went to the windowsill and looked down. The huge crowd, like a black tide, made their hearts jump out of their mouths.

"Oh no, the situation is getting out of control, they're about to collapse."

At this moment, a bald cabinet minister said with great frustration.

He knew very well that if the security personnel below couldn't hold out, the protesters would break through the defenses and launch a direct attack on the Cabinet Building.

At that time, all of them, the cabinet ministers, will also suffer. It can be said that this is the first time in decades that they have encountered such an unprecedented crisis!
Just as the bald cabinet minister was about to go to the cabinet chief to report the situation, he found that the intelligence officer, Takashiro, was leaning over him to report intelligence.

The cabinet leader, however, appeared completely unperturbed, leaning back in his chair as if oblivious to everything around him, or perhaps simply resigning himself to his fate.

He even had the illusion that the head of the cabinet was asleep, after all, the other party had stayed up all night with everyone else.

Seeing that he had finished his report, Kyuugami was about to give it again when he saw the Cabinet Chief weakly raise his hand and wave it twice, saying, "Alright, I understand. You may leave now."

"Hi!"

The farmer in the tree quickly accepted the order and left, but his heart was heavy.

At this moment, the huge conference hall fell silent once again, the atmosphere so heavy it was almost impossible to break.

Whether it was the cabinet ministers standing by the window or those sitting at the conference table, everyone was in a panic and didn't know what to do next.

The commotion caused by the protesters downstairs grew louder and louder, almost enough to topple the Cabinet Building. Meanwhile, the Longxia tribe publicly announced that the fleet they had dispatched to demand an explanation was on its way.

For the Eastern Wilderness tribe, facing internal and external troubles, it is deeply mired in an unprecedented crisis. If it is not careful, there is a huge risk that the entire cabinet will collapse and they will be sent to the dock.

In truth, there was a moment when they genuinely regretted it. The head of the cabinet felt that he shouldn't have made any underhanded moves when submitting the report to the Great Chief, which had led to the current situation where he couldn't back down, and there was no way to salvage the situation.

This situation is a devastating blow to them!
"Leader, we..."

Finally, one of the cabinet ministers couldn't hold back any longer and walked over with a worried expression.

Seeing that the other party did not continue speaking, the cabinet chief slightly raised his eyelids and glanced at the other party, casually saying, "What is it? Speak up, don't beat around the bush."

"Your Majesty, what should we do next? The number of demonstrators below is increasing rapidly, and we are about to lose control," the Minister of the Interior said, forcing himself to speak.

The cabinet chief stared directly at the other person and said, "So, what do you suggest we do next?"

The Home Secretary was momentarily stunned by the sudden interview and didn't know how to respond.

The current situation can be said to have developed to the point where it can't get any worse. What else can they do?
The public is seeking the truth, but even they themselves don't know what the truth is.

In other words, there is nothing they can do now; they can only watch helplessly as the situation continues to deteriorate.

In any case, the arrival of the Dragon Summer Navy meant that they had been abandoned by the Eagle Tribe. At the very least, they would not receive any help from the Eagle Tribe until this matter was resolved.

The bald cabinet minister finally couldn't hold back any longer and walked over, saying softly, "Chief, shall we try to communicate with the Longxia tribe?"

He appeared so cautious, as if afraid that his words would offend the head of the cabinet and everyone else.

Even so, he still saw anger in the eyes of many cabinet ministers, as if they wanted to devour him alive. However, they did not take any action; their anger was limited to itself.

They had no other choice, and this was the best option they could have given them when they were at their wits' end.

Even though they were extremely unhappy and had an urge to roar out, only the Longxia tribe could be the key to solving their current predicament and their savior!

Only by stabilizing the Longxia tribe can they continue to deceive the people, maintain public morale, and quell the unrest.

"Then you should give it a try."

After a moment of silence, the cabinet chief finally spoke, though he still had some reservations. The bald cabinet minister, who was in charge of foreign affairs, had previously been unwilling to communicate because he saw it as a coalition of two countries, believing that they couldn't possibly lose.

But no one expected that they would lose so badly, with absolutely no chance of resistance.

The bald cabinet minister had no choice but to take this path; he was even prepared to humbly apologize.

As a professional in international relations, he knew all too well that what couldn't be obtained on the battlefield could not be obtained at the negotiating table, especially since they had been defeated.

The bald cabinet minister immediately sent someone to communicate, and before doing so, he specifically instructed them to use a friendly tone.

However, he soon discovered, to his dismay, that he couldn't get in touch with them at all.

"Reporting to the Chief, we have lost contact with the Longxia tribe. I contacted their ambassador, but he refused to meet with us, saying he was busy with important matters." The bald cabinet minister had no choice but to report the truth.

Before the cabinet leader could respond, someone roared impatiently, "Damn bastards, the Dragon Xia people are trying to kill us! How could they be so vicious?"

As time passed, the number of people gathered at the foot of the Cabinet Building exceeded 20,000.

During this time, the Longxia naval fleet, having activated its corner reflectors, openly approached the enemy, putting maximum pressure on them. Naturally, this was also monitored by the radar stations deployed by the Eastern Wilderness Tribe at the front lines.

Corner reflectors are items that can increase the radar cross-section and are essential for many stealth ships, in order to enable real-time monitoring of their true movements.

Now that they're no longer resorting to surprise attacks, there's no need for the Longxia Navy fleet to keep a low profile!

Almost instantly, the alarm went off.

It acted as a key point in a chain reaction, quickly spreading throughout the entire Eastern Wilderness tribe.

After a hiatus of nearly a year and a half, the Longxia Navy once again appeared at the doorstep of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe with unstoppable power!

This demonstration of formidable military strength to the Eastern Wilderness tribes was once again etched in history, as the Dragon Xia Navy achieved a feat that shook the entire Eastern Continent maritime region, thus solidifying its position as the dominant force within the Eastern Continent maritime region!
At the same time, this day was an extremely dark moment for the Eastern Wilderness tribe!

It was exactly nine o'clock in the morning, not a minute more, not a minute less.

The atmosphere inside the underground combat command center of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe's southernmost military base was extremely tense.

As the commander-in-chief of this operation, Murashita Hayaki was experiencing excruciating pain at this moment, and he seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight.

He believed that the disastrous defeat eighteen months ago was caused by the command errors of Inoshita Wada, which directly led to the demise of their powerful Eight-Eight Fleet, and Inoshita Wada was eventually forced to commit suicide.

Now, he has become the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe in this great battle. With the Eagle Tribe's aircraft carrier fleet and the air force support from the garrison base, his strength is considerable. He believes he can turn the tide and wash away the previous humiliation.

But who could have imagined that the defeat would be so devastating, and that the slap in the face would come so quickly?

The patrol fleet near the Alyu Islands suffered heavy losses shortly after the initial engagement, the forward base on the Alyu Islands was completely destroyed, and even Commander Hayashi Yaichiro was killed in action. The Fukuno carrier fleet, which had been painstakingly rebuilt, was also ultimately defeated...

One incident after another completely depleted the Eastern Wilderness Tribe's navy, leaving them with nothing. They were utterly finished. Now, even a small country could come and swagger around in their coastal waters with just a gunboat!
It can be said that the Eastern Wilderness tribes have fallen into an unprecedentedly tragic situation!
It truly is a country with a sea but no defense!
It can be said that this was the most devastating defeat suffered by the Eastern Wilderness Tribe since the Second Great War on Blue Star.

All of this happened in just one night. The defeat was inevitable, and he felt utterly disheartened, even trembling all over.

Even though the heating was turned up to the maximum and the entire command center was warm, he still felt as if he were in an ice cellar, with a bone-chilling cold enveloping his entire body.

It could be said that no matter how ambitious he had been before, vowing to teach the Longxia Navy a profound lesson, he was now just as dejected, his body still trembling despite being tightly wrapped in his military overcoat.

His face looked extremely haggard, as if he had lost all his vitality.

The deputy commander glanced at the time, then looked out the window and slowly walked over: "General, it's already dawn. Shall we go out and take a look?"

"No, you guys go ahead, I need some peace and quiet."

Murashita Hayaki didn't move an inch; instead, he wrapped his general's coat even tighter, and cold sweat was dripping from his forehead.

Even now, after reviewing the game at least ten times, he still can't figure out exactly where they went wrong. They clearly had the advantages of timing, location, and support, yet in the end…

The most tragic thing is that they didn't even find any trace of the Longxia Navy fleet before they were sunk by anti-ship missiles coming from all directions. That's just too damn bizarre!

To put it bluntly, the Longxia Navy seems to have a god's-eye view, and is even more like it has divine assistance!

"General, you don't need to torture yourself like this. This defeat is not your fault."

The deputy commander took a deep breath, feeling some sympathy for Murashita Hayaki, and comforted him, "The Dragon Xia Navy is really too cunning, and they haven't shown themselves from the beginning. They're fighting us in beyond-visual-range combat. We simply don't have a way to engage them in a real battle."

"If we were closer, I guarantee we would..."

Before he could speak, Murashita Hayaki impatiently interrupted, "Naive, this is war. Do you even know what war is? It's about defeating the enemy by any means necessary!"

Upon hearing this, the deputy commander ultimately did not utter a single word, but his expression remained extremely solemn.

A moment later, the deputy commander reported the situation: "General, the Longxia Foreign Affairs Department has issued a notice saying that their naval fleet is on its way to our side, but it is unknown when it will arrive."

"I have contacted the cabinet to inform them of this matter, but I have not been able to get through."

They have learned through various channels that a large number of protesters have gathered around the Cabinet Building.

After all, the event was broadcast live on television, and almost the entire nation knew about it.

Murashita Hayaki understood, and casually replied, "The Cabinet Secretary is probably overwhelmed with work right now, so how could he possibly have time to respond to our affairs?"
