Chapter 544: Deep Echo
......
And when Jiang Mengyue was tortured by various test papers again.
In a conference room in St. Petersburg.
In the empty lobby, except for the Soviet alliance, everyone else appeared in the positions of camp representatives in the form of holographic projections.
The discussion of the ship girls, with the help of the microphone, seemed strong and powerful in this empty space.
Soviet Union: "This is the proposal for a Northern Union, as you understand it in the literal sense."
"The Northern Alliance will launch an all-out attack on the Iron Bloods from land, air, water, and underwater!"
"Let the Iron Blood return to its rightful place after a series of wanton acts."
"With this counterattack, we will do everything in our power to end this long, stupid, and divisive war."
“This is a decision made by the Supreme Soviet and the unshakable and firm position of the Northern Union.”
“Even without the support of all members of the command, the Northern Alliance will act alone.”
"It's time to move on to the future, isn't it?"
While the Soviet League was speaking.
White Eagle's commander, Xiao Meng, stood beside Saratoga and watched the meeting scene.
But from the perspective of the people around him, the only projection in the White Eagle representative position was Saratoga.
{Wanted to plot against Donghuang, but ended up... bringing Donghuang along with him? Beilian, what are you thinking...}
{Or do you think abandoning Donghuang is a little too obvious for such a big faction event?}
Saratoga looked at Xiao Meng, and Xiao Meng nodded, letting Saratoga play freely.
Saratoga picked up the phone.
"The Northern Union should not act arbitrarily on matters like this!"
"The war in the NA Sea just ended not long ago, and White Eagle also participated in the Python War. We all need some time to recuperate!"
Xiao Meng thought: {Jiang Mengyue is taking money from the military budget every day... and has also slowed down the progress of the repairs...}
"Besides! There is still hope for a comprehensive ceasefire agreement with the Red Axis. I hope the Northern Alliance will not make the situation more complicated."
"Instead of wasting energy fighting each other, isn't it most important to march to the next sea area controlled by the Sirens?"
After White Eagle finished speaking on behalf of Saratoga.
Donghuang's representative, Yixian, said: "Saratoga, what you can't get back on the battlefield, you can't get back at the negotiation table either."
"We don't want to get involved in internal strife, and the Red Axis may not think so either. The fact that there has been no progress in the comprehensive ceasefire agreement is the best proof of this."
"Every wrong has its perpetrator. Since this division was started by blood and iron, we must also make up for the past while moving forward into the future."
“Although Donghuang cannot leave Hong Kong for the time being, it will support the Northern Alliance’s actions in other ways.”
After Yixian said this.
There was a moment of silence in the meeting room.
They all know the current situation within Donghuang.
Jiang Mengyue, the one that everyone cares about.
She has been causing trouble at sea for a long time.
When the royal representative saw that the momentum was gradually developing in the wrong direction, he pulled it back.
King George V said.
"As you all know. Thanks to someone sending to the wrong channel, Iron Blood has been warned in advance."
"Intelligence shows that the Iron Bloods are sending more troops to the confrontation area. The Vichy Fleet also shows signs of movement. It seems that part of the fleet has left the port of Toulon."
"The Sardinian Empire did not show any special reaction as usual, and the same is true for the main island of Sakura."
"However, an expeditionary fleet of the Sakura Empire is still stationed in the port of Dakar. We need to keep a close eye on their actions."
"Of course, the question that the royal family is most concerned about is, 'The ceasefire period has not yet ended, is the Northern Alliance going to unilaterally tear up the agreement?'"
The Soviet allies responded: "No, we are not Iron and Blood."
"Therefore, a certain degree of intelligence leakage is within our expectations and will not affect the subsequent deployment."
King George V of England continued her slightly pointed questioning.
"It is a kind of declaration of war... Your actions are turning Europe into a powder keg ready to explode at any moment."
"Are you aware of this matter?"
The Soviet Union replied: "Europe has long been a powder keg. The only difference is who ignites it and when."
"Does the Royal Family hope to hand over the initiative to the other side?"
King George V of England calmed down a little, "Such concerns do have some reason. The royal family expresses its support in principle in the attitude towards the Red Axis."
"The Royal Family will continue to maintain the transport fleet and escort formation on the polar route to provide the necessary material support to the Northern Alliance."
“However, due to the current situation, the Royal Family does not have any extra manpower to participate in the crackdown.”
King George V of England looked towards Richelieu.
"Well... at least it's the first round of strikes. Is it similar for Liberty Iris?"
While the Royal Family expressed their attitude, they pulled out Iris Liberty.
Don't participate!
"Hmm..." Richelieu nodded.
"It's a pity that our fleet is currently stretched to its limits."
"On this matter, the attitude of Free Iris is consistent with that of the Royal Family. However, we hope that the actions of the Northern Alliance will not affect the Vichy Church as much as possible."
"I hope that matters within the Iris Cult can be resolved internally as much as possible."
Richelieu cast a grateful look at King George V of England.
A small faction like theirs that hasn't even resolved the civil war can't participate in this kind of battle.
Good sisters.
"Of course, we will control the scope and extent of the strike to the extent possible."
While the Soviet allies gave assurances to Richelieu, they also made some polite remarks to their allies.
"Supporting the Vichy Church to break away from the influence of iron and blood is the consistent position of the Northern Union."
"Thank you very much for the consistent material support provided by all of you over the years. It doesn't matter if we cannot provide a combat fleet. The Northern Combined Fleet is enough to complete this operation."
Saratoga was somewhat angry at the recklessness of the Northern Union.
This decision was too sudden.
"Don't talk like it's already been settled!"
"What about the polar regions? Your fleet can only maintain the battle line with the Polar Sirens at best. Where will the fleet that attacks the Iron Blood come from?"
"Besides, we have received reliable intelligence that some powerful threats have emerged in the Iron Blood Fleet that cannot be ignored... They are the planned ships that everyone knows about."
"We are still in the theoretical verification stage of the planned ship, and several of them have already been put into service in Iron Blood..."
"Each of the planned ships has the power to rival a regular fleet. The coalition forces of the Royal Family and Free Iris have seen this before."
"If multiple Iron Blood Project ships appear on the front lines, how do you plan to deal with it?"
Saratoga's question was also the question the commander wanted to ask.
But the commander cannot show up yet.
And after asking these questions in Saratoga.
Representatives of other camps also looked forward to a response from the Soviet alliance.
“Both of these issues are really tough.”
The Soviet Alliance said this with confidence that came from nowhere.
"The situation in the polar region has improved due to the previous attack by Comrade Commander. We plan to use space to trade time after the battle begins. We will shrink the defense line and use the existing forces for defense."
"To this end, strikes need to be swift and precise, and cannot become a protracted war of attrition."
The Northern Alliance also resorted to blitzkrieg.
"As for the planning ship... According to the current intelligence, the planning ship's mind will take longer and require more complex means to perfect."
"Isn't this the main reason why our planned ships are progressing slowly? Although I don't know how far you have actually come in your research."
"The Polar Fleet has the best equipment and the most extensive combat experience. With proper command, we believe we will still have a chance of winning even if the Iron Blood's planned ships appear."
When the Soviet Alliance said this, everyone had already made their guesses.
"But because of this, we need the support of Comrade Commander."
See the picture poorly.
I found the commander again.
Xiao Meng, who was watching in the dark, also sighed silently.
{You still have to involve me... But even if I don't know about this kind of thing now, I will have to take action when the time comes.}
{Fortunately, I was able to get a little information out of Jiang Mengyue during the conversation, and also got intelligence from Tiancheng.}
{It can be considered as knowing one's future destiny in advance.}
{That's why I was able to make it to this meeting.}
"I've said it before! The situation in all seas is unstable right now, and the commander is really overwhelmed."
Saratoga believed that they should not drag their commander into this somewhat ridiculous battle.
What's the point of relying on the commander?
Just practice cooking more!
"I know you want to ensure victory. But with the Red Axis in place, the sea we have now is not as stable as you think."
The Soviet allies wanted to convince Saratoga.
Saratoga didn't buy it and kept firing.
"Should we then carry out such an aggressive operation? Blindly launching an attack when we have no information on the enemy and even the comparison of the combat power between the two sides is unclear is definitely not a wise choice."
"Knowing that the outcome of the battle is uncontrollable, they still want to involve the commander."
"What are you going to do if an unexpected situation like the previous one happens again due to reckless advance?"
The Soviet Union tried to make big promises at such meetings.
"We have fully learned our lesson. In this operation, we will do our best to ensure the safety of Comrade Commander."
"But this is war. As long as you are on the front line, there is no 100% safety at any time."
Saratoga got even angrier, "An unexpected situation and voluntarily walking into a fire pit are two different things!"
Since Saratoga is so tough.
The Soviet bloc also had no intention of continuing the talks.
He asked: "We should listen to the commander's opinion on this matter. Why didn't the commander appear at the meeting?"
Saratoga glanced at Xiao Meng.
Xiao Meng shook his head and decided not to go out.
And signaled Saratoga to act as if she didn't exist, or what she should do according to the original plan.
After receiving the signal, Saratoga condemned: "Because this is an emergency caused by your arbitrary behavior, the commander is still on his way back to NY Port!"
The Soviet allies were somewhat disappointed to hear that the commander would not be able to attend the meeting in the short term.
"Then let's continue discussing this matter after the commander arrives."
But Saratoga had no intention of stopping.
"These are two different things! Even if the commander agrees out of justice, it cannot change the nature of this being an immature and high-risk operation!"
The Soviet allies, who were fired upon continuously by Saratoga, also became a little angry.
His tone changed, and he said, "So what? Does White Eagle mean to oppose this strike against Iron Blood?"
I began to question whether Saratoga could fully represent White Eagle.
"At least at this stage, we think the time is not right!"
Saratoga, with her small stature, began to glare at the Soviet allies.
King George V of England saw that the atmosphere was not right and hurried to act as a peacemaker.
"There's no need to argue so much. Or maybe, do you think it's okay to do this?"
"It's true that the Royal Fleet in the NA Sea and the Lujian Sea cannot escape, but if the powerful White Eagle Fleet is willing, it can still withdraw support forces, right?"
"White Eagle dispatched a fleet to accompany the commander. This will not only ensure the success rate of the operation, but also better guarantee the commander's safety."
Saratoga calmed down and asked, "Does that mean the Royal Family also supports the Commander in participating in this operation?"
King George V waved his hands and said, "We mean, if we are going to do this, it would be better to do it this way, right?"
Saratoga had some doubts about whether what King George V of England said would work.
Then he turned and asked, "Why didn't Elizabeth come to this meeting?"
King George V of England smiled and said elegantly, "Your Majesty has some important matters to deal with. But don't worry, my attitude is also the common attitude of the royal family."
Saratoga wondered, "Is there anything more important than this???"
Is this kind of thing not important anymore?
This is going to be a world war!
Saratoga believed that King George V of England must have told the truth.
But now that our good partner Royal has made its position clear.
Saratoga also relented.
"Well... White Eagle cannot deny the justice and necessity of the Northern Alliance's counterattack."
"But... unfortunately, the White Eagles are different from the Royals. This is not something I can decide right now. Even if I really want to do it, it will take time to mobilize the fleet."
Saratoga will discuss this matter in detail with the commander later.
"When necessary, we may also need the ports of the Northern Alliance as anchorages, or temporary stationing and jurisdiction over certain areas..."
Seeing Saratoga give in, the Soviet Alliance immediately changed their expressions and said with a smile.
"No problem, as long as everything is done to ensure the success of the operation."
"Anyway, there's still time. The commander hasn't come yet. Let's all go back and discuss it. See you at the next meeting."
After confirmation, the Soviet alliance ran away.
Immediately afterwards, several others also turned off the communication projection.
And after the meeting.
The Soviets reviewed their plans.
A smile that shows that one has a plan.
"Very good, let's continue the meeting..."
"All parties have successfully focused their attention on the Europa region, and no one will pay attention to our next plan."
"As long as the action can be successful..."
"Of course there is a fleet..."
......
Plan went unnoticed?
Jiang Mengyue holding the script: trying to hold back her laughter.
Donghuang: Hold back your laughter.
Experimental institution: Suppress your laughter.
Commander who knows half of it: Hold back your laughter.
Oh no, the commander can't laugh, because the commander is the one being beaten.
She knew in advance that her side was going to be beaten, and she had to prepare herself for failure.
