"Okay, stop arguing!"
Facing the quarrel between Dauberman and Gion, Flying Squirrel held his forehead to temporarily put an end to the debate.
"I didn't expect such a thing to happen again if I didn't pay attention."
It is not the first time that the flying squirrel has seen this kind of debate between the navies, but the flying squirrel is a neutral faction, and generally does not participate in this kind of ideological debate, because it is meaningless to him.
It's just that this time, for the sake of the mission, he had to stand up and temporarily suppress the internal conflicts first.
After the flying squirrel spoke, Gion and Dauberman gave up, but the atmosphere in the room was somewhat full of gunpowder.
Flying squirrels have no good solution to this. Originally, when Marshal Sengoku was still in office, there was no such controversy within the navy, but Sengoku was able to handle and balance all parties very well. However, after Akainu took over, it seemed that there was only one voice to 'unify' the interior of the navy, and it was this radical approach that led to the current situation.
But... there is no way to complain now, the only thing to do is to do the things right now.
Five days later, the flying squirrel and the others finally arrived in the East China Sea.
After the flying squirrel and others arrived in the East China Sea, the navy in Rogge Town and the navy in various branches of the East China Sea had been waiting for a long time. On the last day, the flying squirrel and others finally contacted the navy in the East China Sea.
"What?! You don't even know what happened to Tequila Wolf?!"
The flying squirrel looked at the navy in the East China Sea in front of him, and he didn't even know that such a big thing happened to Tequila Wolf!Faced with so many lieutenant generals, the East China Sea Navy on the opposite side could only nod submissively, and did not dare to refute at all.
In the East China Sea, Rogge Town's navy is the strongest, but after Smoker, Dashiqi and others were transferred to the Great Channel, the newly appointed base chief can only be said to be mediocre without merit or fault. This is the situation of most of the navy of the four seas.
After all, if people like Smoker hadn't offended World Government officials and some people, they wouldn't have been transferred to the East China Sea at all.
However, for the situation of the Four Seas Navy, everyone was actually prepared in their hearts, and the flying squirrel did not scold them too much.
But one thing caught the attention of flying squirrels and even Gion!
"What's the matter with your ships and equipped weapons? This is not our navy's standard!"
Both Flying Squirrel and Gion also found that the ships and weapons of the East China Sea Navy in front of them were extremely brand-new. Although there were old-style naval weapons, they were somewhat dwarfed by those brand-new weapons and equipment.
And on these naval ships, there are also some advertisements such as "Corn Express" and "Corn Paradise"?
What's even more outrageous is that this is not only the case with the Luoge Town Navy, it is the case with the 16th branch of the East China Sea, the 153rd branch of the East China Sea, the 77th branch of the East China Sea, and almost all the naval branches of the East China Sea!
The flying squirrel looked at the East China Sea Navy in front of him with a dark face, waiting for their answer!
Faced with the pressure from the Vice Admiral of the Great Channel Navy, these Four Seas Navy had no room to resist at all, so they honestly explained: "Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel, you also know that our Four Seas Navy's military expenditure has always been a little... a bit 'not enough', and most of the weapons and equipment are relatively backward old-style weapons, and it is very difficult to deal with those increasingly vicious pirates."
Flying Squirrel, Gion and the others couldn't help but fell silent. The naval colonel of Rogge Town just now said it very "tactfully".
Among them, Gion is the most clear about the military expenditure because he often works under Crane's subordinates. This is not because some people in the navy are corrupt and perverting the law, but simply because there is not enough money!
The great waterway itself has invested a lot of money, whether it is weapons and equipment or the maintenance of warships, it is sky-high. Even with some industrial support from the world government and the navy itself, it is difficult to achieve a balance of payments. Every year is basically a deficit. Therefore, in order to ensure the operation of the great waterway, reduce the military expenditure of the four-sea navy, and even some naval branches in remote sea areas need to find ways to make money!
Although being in the navy is an ideal, in fact, everyone still has to face the daily necessities of life. You can't have an enthusiastic "satisfaction with water" right?
And it happens that the "weakest sea" Donghai is in a similar situation, otherwise there would not be so many corrupt navies such as Colonel Mouse!
But now it’s different. Yuliang Group now sponsors their brand-new ships and weapons, and now the reconstruction and repair work in many parts of the naval branch’s base is also provided by Yuliang Group, and many of the equipment and buildings are also provided by Yuliang Group free of charge.
"The navies who have worked so hard, even at the cost of their lives, to protect our people should not be ignored or taken for granted. These are the small things we can do."
This is what the chairman of Yuliang Group said, so it has become what it is now.
As for the advertisements posted on the ships, it is a means for the local navy to earn 'military pay'. The Yuliang Group can get exposure to its popularity, while the navy can get a large amount of advertising fees to maintain the daily expenses and operations of the branch bases, as well as the salaries of the sailors.
Although unbelievable, this is a very real problem.
And after listening to the words of the Rogue Township Colonel, whether it was Flying Squirrel, Gion, or others, there was nothing but silence.
"You bastard! You bastards are also worthy of being a navy?!"
Dauberman's face was gloomy, full of anger, and he felt extremely angry and contemptuous of this behavior!
In the face of Dauberman's insults, the navy in the East China Sea could only lower their heads and clenched their fists, not daring to refute at all.
Because they also know that this is an act that shames the navy, but as they said at the beginning, the navy is a dream, but people need bread to live in this world!
Originally, they also refused at first, but after the top war, the military expenditures of their four-sea navy have been further reduced, and they have already reached a difficult point. Outsiders see their navy as very glamorous, but who knows the suffering?
Who can understand the helplessness and tossing and turning struggle, and the determination to make such a decision?
Even my own people don't understand!
Even like Gion, although he understands that this is a forced choice, he can't say 'you are right to do this'.
Facing the quarrel between Dauberman and Gion, Flying Squirrel held his forehead to temporarily put an end to the debate.
