Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 517: Gradually approaching, getting worse

Violet Island.

In the Violet Deacon's Mansion, Huang Jiang was sitting in the office, looking out the window at the scenery that was very different from that of the Glory Island Deacon's Mansion.

Lexington opened the door and walked in.Because of the war on Wutou Island, Lexington came from Gloriosa Island to Violet.However, even if there is no war, the functions of the Deacon's Mansion over there will cease soon. The Deacon's Mansion on Gloria Island will simply be called the residence of the ship girls and will no longer have administrative functions. This is also for the unification of power. .

To put it in simpler terms, the capital of the Gloria Territory has been moved, and the administrative core of the Gloria Territory will no longer be on Gloria Island.

Naturally, some people will have objections to this, but Huang Jiang's prestige in the Jialan Territory is high enough, and as the founder of this consular territory, he does not need to take much reputational risks.In addition, nowadays, the people's minds have not been completely liberated, and people still have the same feelings about lords as the old-fashioned feudal society did. Therefore, this seemingly big thing did not cause any waves in Jialan Territory. .

"Are you worried about the war on Wutou Island?" Lexington put down the document in his hand.The Z-driven brigade was stationed on Violet Island. Lexington was worried that the girls would cause trouble for Huangjiang, but it was obvious that despite the immature stereotype of destroyers, most of the destroyers were actually very well-behaved.

The Z drivers didn't make trouble for Huang Jiang, but took care of the entire deacon's mansion very well.It's just that as an admiral in the traditional sense, Huang Jiang always feels frightened when he sees Z21 and Z22.

It's an instinct.

Anyway, that's how Huang Jiang explained it. He didn't admit that he had anything to blame for the Pie Team.

"I still have great trust in the abilities of Tirpitz and Hood." Huang Jiang took the document received today from Lexington, "There is actually no suspense about the outcome of the war on Wutou Island, unless 'Sunfish' will send out all its forces at the risk of being stolen by Gibran, and then Hood's sniper fleet will have a little risk."

"So what are you worried about?" Lexington asked.

Huang Jiang was silent for a long time and said quietly: "I'm worried about the next resource issue."

"Hood and the others didn't destroy many resources, did they?" Lexington was a little curious as to why the Yellow River was related to this issue. The war on Wutou Island and the consumption of related resources have already had a rough statistics, which is equivalent to before the war. The budget will not be finalized until the fleet comes back and is totaled. However, even the budget is very accurate, because the consumption of the ship girls will always be within a certain range. This value has been established as early as in the port area. There have been quantitative calculations.

After Lexington finished speaking, he saw that Huang Jiang's face was a little ugly. Looking carefully, Huang Jiang was holding a report from Cycad Island in his hand.

"The problem I was most worried about happened." Huang Jiang smiled bitterly.

Lexington took over the report from Huang Jiang, and what was written on it also made her a little surprised: "Continue to increase taxes?"

Although in name it meant an increase in the protection fee, in the eyes of the two, this was Milton's pressure on Jialan.It's blatant, without any austere pressure.

"It hasn't been that long since the last recruitment." Lexington was very surprised, because even the stupidest guy couldn't use the same method to pressure his opponent in such a short period of time. This would easily cause An unexpected rebound may cause the other party to lose everything and hurt both sides.

Although its size is far smaller than that of the Governor-General's Tulip Territory, the Tulip Territory is not monolithic. Throwing away all the territories that Milton does not directly control, the Tulip Territory's strength is only three or four times higher than today's Gloria Territory. twice as much.Although there is still a huge disparity in strength, it is not completely invincible.

In particular, the military strength of the Jialan Territory is not weak. In comparison, just counting the main force, the Jialan Territory is much stronger than the main force directly under the Tulip Territory.Although it is impossible for a civil war to occur within the Federation, this comparison of strength cannot be verified by actual combat...

"He doesn't know what I'm hiding." Huang Jiang smiled coldly. If he revealed all the hidden battleships, such as the US battleship fleet, Milton would never dare to irritate Huang Jiang like this.

But this makes no difference, because the trouble between Tulip and Jialanling was foreshadowed when Huang Jiang just graduated.It can only be said that there must be an iron ore island in the Huangjiang River to ensure the development of Jialan, and Cycad Island has precisely passed Milton's consent and officially became a resource island in his territory in law. Even though it was weak at the beginning and surrounded by When there were only fireflies, Huang Jiang already had a rough idea about this.

Otherwise, he could use an unfounded excuse to return Cycad Island to Milton in exchange for Milton's support.

No one is clean in this matter, so Huang Jiang does not intend to use any moral reasons to condemn Milton's behavior.

Then speak with strength.

Huang Jiang touched the mug with residual warmth and began to think about the layout of Cycad Island.

"This matter..." Lexington looked at Huang Jiang who was deep in thought.

"Satisfy him." Huang Jiang said, "Then publish this matter in Jialan Daily and state the facts, but..."

"Making us victims," ​​Lexington said. "I know that."

"Don't be too explicit." Huang Jiang rubbed the mug, "We haven't broken up with Milton yet."

"Got it." Lexington nodded.

Perhaps because of the support of a large number of outlines of classic popular novels on Earth, "Garland Daily" has become a popular newspaper in the entire Federation, and it does not shy away from criticizing various places in the Federation, including Garland. The scandal made the Jialan Daily's neutral image deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

During this period, Huang Jiang only did two things: First, let the "Jialan Daily" guarantee absolute neutrality and respectability on major issues of right and wrong, so as to gain the recognition of the entire federation.[-]. Completely cut off the connection between the Garland Deacon’s Office and the Garland Daily, making it appear to be a completely neutral institution. To this end, Hood even planned and directed a drama about the newspaper’s conflict of ideas. Shutdown, according to the script, the editor-in-chief who insisted on news neutrality finally drove away the "appointed and dismissed" editor-in-chief of the Garland Deacon House with the support of most employees of the newspaper.

Of course, most people in the Federation don't care about such tidbits.

But this matter made the whole federation know about it.

The reason is that some of people's favorite novels were suspended due to the huge internal incident at "Garland Daily".

Readers who keep up with updates are terrible.

It is said that during those months, the "poor" guy who caused the commotion, who was later driven away, received freshly baked blades every day, and some readers even enthusiastically delivered them to their doorsteps.

"I'm afraid Milton will get worse?" Lexington knew very well the face of greedy people.

"If he calms down, we will be fine. If he intensifies, then we will have a reasonable excuse." Huang Jiang slowly took a sip of coffee.

Mom, it’s really painful to soak it by myself. I’ll let my wife soak it for me next time.
