Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 631 The Beginning of the Blockade

When Huang Jiang, accompanied by the U-boats, went to Sesame Island to meet with Peanut, Missouri and others, Lexington was handling the dispute with Tulip Leader at the Deacon's Mansion on Gloria Island as a secretary ship.

After the ship girls made a preemptive strike last time and recaptured Cycad Island, the conflict between the two territories was completely aroused.Of course, with the tacit understanding between the two parties, this contradiction stopped at the top and did not spread to the people. Milton did not want his subjects to know that he had suffered a loss from a consul in a dispute over an island. In this case , the strong stance of the Kenner family that has been operating seriously for decades will of course disappear.

Huang Jiang, on the other hand, did not want the matter to get too big and Milton unable to step down.After all, apart from the dispute over Cycad Island, there is no core conflict of interest between the two parties. Even if the federal market is integrated, there is no obvious conflict between Tulip Territory and Gloria Territory. The former is a very standard agricultural export area, while the latter It is the most standard industrial export area. Not only is there no conflict between the two, but they are very similar. Glory collar needs a lot of food to maintain its industrial population, while Tulip collar needs more fertilizers and agricultural machinery.

Of course, until the dust settles on the Cycad Island incident, this kind of deal only exists in the imagination of both parties.

In order to avoid the delay in intelligence due to distance, Lexington did not wait for news on Violet Island, but came to Gloria Island again to host.Of course, working in the Deacon Mansion on Gloria Island this time is obviously different from the last time. Before moving away from Gloria Island, Lexington was commanding the entire Tulip Territory here, but this time when he came here, Just for Cycad Island.

Of course, Huang Jiang did not stop eating due to choking. After Helena settled the matter on Cycad Island, she returned to Violet Island, where she continued to preside over the daily affairs of Gloria Territory as a secretary ship.As the ship's wife who has been hung up on the secretary ship by Huang Jiang for the second longest time, Helena is still very skilled in handling such daily affairs.

As for why Helena became the second longest secretary ship, most of the ship girls were also very confused. Only Huang Jiang knew that for a long time, Helena's swimsuit change was the only thing that could be moved in the game.

The habit of poking at the secretary ship when nothing happened was also a bad habit Huang Jiang developed at that time.

Closer to home.

After Cycad Island was embraced by Jialan, a series of construction projects were put on the agenda.In the past, due to the estrangement between Huangjiang and the governor, Huangjiang did not dare to let his infrastructure team enter Cycad Island. Therefore, although it was once the steel powerhouse of the Tulip Territory and developed decades before the islands such as Jialan Island, it is relatively Compared with other islands in Jialan Territory, the level of infrastructure here pales in comparison.

Jiagang has always been very troubled by the unspeakable road conditions on Sutie Island, and it can even be said to be quite critical. Therefore, Jiagang is the organization that most supports Huangjiang in taking back Sutie Island.

The infrastructure work on Cycad Island begins with roads, of course, followed by a series of buildings. The first is the construction of places where workers live their daily lives.Now that Sutie Island has been officially merged into Jialan Territory, Huangjiang no longer restricts workers on Jialan Island from going to live on Sutie Island. After all, commuting between the two islands every day is not necessary for Jiagang. burden.

Of course, since it is a mining area, quality of life, especially environmental quality, is a top priority.Therefore, the living area is very far from the mining area.There is also a special light rail planned in the plan that leads directly from the living area to the ironworks and iron ore areas. The fare is very low. If you hold the work permit of a Jiagang employee, you can ride for free.

This is a small benefit for employees of Jiagang, a large group that is a giant even in the entire Blue Federation.

Lexington breathed a sigh of relief. The construction of Cycad Island was now on the right track. Under the protection of the ship girls, Milton had no chance to land on Cycad Island again. And Huang Jiang's temperament was absolutely impossible to compromise. For empty talk.

"Then...the most troublesome thing is this." Lexington picked up the letter sent by Ernest.

There is no doubt that this letter sent from Ramhuatan Island is Ernest's report and request for instructions from the Parliament.Lexington looked at the text on the letter, considered it for a while, and then started writing a reply at his desk.Before Huang Jiang left, he had only one task for Lexington, which was to delay the vote in the parliament as much as possible, leaving some room for the factories in Jialanling to prepare, and giving the Deacon's Office a little time to hoard resources.

After Lexington finished writing the reply, he folded the letter skillfully, put it into a blank envelope, stamped it, and put it aside.

Tomorrow, she will go to the city not far away and put the letters in the mailbox.Unless Milton used his precious and limited privileges, he could not expect the Gleneagles to formally confront Standal in Parliament before the end of the month.Of course, this is just a way to delay time, and it does not mean that the Glendale Territory is in a disadvantageous position in this matter. Lexington does not want those neutral legislators and the governor to have such an illusion, so the entire Glendale Territory has been planning for several years. For the first time, the public opinion machine started to work crazily.

It is clear that Milton has not yet realized the true role of the media.

Lexington is very familiar with using these newspapers. In order to ensure the logistics and livelihood security of the frontline shipgirls, Lexington, who retired after the Battle of the Coral Sea, once ran elections for some congressmen. She has seen how the media works through Selective reporting, distorted reporting, fabrication, and slander turn an honest matter into a heinous crime, and how can an executioner with his hands stained with blood be transformed into a priest exuding holy light.

What's more, he is on his side in this matter.

Of course, the Tulip Territory cannot be so stupid. As far as the power of a governor is concerned, the existence of the parliament only means that other governors will have a certain influence on his actions, but it does not mean that he cannot bypass the parliament. A blow to Gloriosa.

After Lexington put down the letter, he picked up the documents from the side.

At this time, Firefly opened the door and walked in.

"What's the matter? Did something happen to the captive?" Lexington looked up at the hurrying firefly. It seemed that the little girl was very flustered.

"There's nothing wrong with the sea souls. They're even a little happy now." Firefly used a Chinese idiom to accurately describe the group of sea souls captured by the ship girls from Cycad Island and nearby waters.There was no deep hatred between the two parties, so Huang Jiang treated it as entertaining some guests, but the guests could not leave for the time being.

"Didn't I go to Jimu Island today to deliver monthly supply resources?" Firefly quickly reported the situation he encountered today, "On the way back, I was monitored by the sea souls led by Tulip."

"Has the revenge over there begun?" Firefly asked cautiously.

Lexington stood back, looked at the information in his hand, and said quietly: "It's more than just that."
