The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and as time enters the midsummer, there are not many wild dogs on the street.
In the room, on the TV, reports from the frontline of the joint military exercise are playing.
Since the joint military exercise has entered the preparation period, the world's attention has been attracted by this major event, and even international trade has been affected, and the transaction volume has decreased significantly.
No way, the multinational joint exercise is on the waters of the Western Ocean. As one of the most important shipping hubs in the world, the joint military exercise occupies several major waterways. During the military exercise, both cargo ships and passenger ships also Well, both are prohibited from passing through these locations.
At this time, the technology is not enough to support the radar that can automatically distinguish the enemy from the enemy, let alone such advanced radar, there is no ordinary radar!
Once an unidentified ship enters the exercise area, it is likely to be attacked by fire as a "target ship".
The exercise is not about running at sea without firing a shot. The exercise needs to show a lot of things, especially offensive capabilities.
Powerful and effective offensive capability is the best way to resist greed, so after the request of the joint military exercise command center, all countries participating in the exercise have prepared some target ships, also known as target ships, parked in designated positions , for shooting use.
If important shipping routes are stopped, the trade volume will naturally drop. Of course, everyone's attention is not here at this time. They only focus on one thing, which is this exercise.
"...The fleet of the Gafra Empire has left the port. We noticed that this time, the submarine, a special combat unit, also appeared in the naval fleet of the Gaevra Empire. According to the official data we obtained Judging by the fact that its performance is not much worse than the data provided to us by the federation."
"In some projects, the parameters of Gavra's submarines exceed those of the Baylor Federation..."
This military exercise can be regarded as an alternative declaration of war in some ways.
A direct military conflict is unlikely to happen in a short period of time, but it is impossible for His Majesty the Emperor of the Gafra Empire to sit back and watch the Bale Federation win a naval battle and directly ride on the empire's head.
Even until this moment, there is still a voice within the Gafra Empire. If it happens again, the Imperial Navy may not lose, and the Federation may not win.
The emperor knew very well that he couldn't sink in like this. The leaked military expansion and military projects of the federation gave him some inspiration. Under the common thinking of him and his ministers, he planned to tell everyone in the same way that Guyana The Fra Empire has not lost, nor will it admit defeat!
Military exercises, a large number of military orders and projects, and the research and development of new weapons, of course, the parameters may be slightly exaggerated. After all, they are design parameters and do not necessarily represent actual parameters.
All of this shows an attitude to the international community - we will not admit defeat, and are actively catching up with the Bayer Federation!
This attitude is important, and it's more of a motivator to give some of the Gavra Empire die-hards some inspiration.
As a result, various countries announced their own military plans and projects, and some commentators have said that now people have moved war from reality to press conferences.
They competed "numbers" in military-related fields through the content announced at press conferences, and looked at some exaggerated weapon and equipment parameters, all of which were like a game, just for themselves parameters are even more astonishing.
And this competition, the digital economy, has also been given a word by some commentators, "arms race".
Now this exercise is just a validation of some of the achievable items in this digital race, like some athlete claiming they can run 20 meters a second.
Whether it can really reach this number, we have to run it on a fair track for everyone to see.
Countless people are paying attention to this joint military exercise, and Lynch is also paying attention. The target he pays attention to is obviously not the same as others. He pays attention to those submarines that cannot be checked and balanced.
Until this moment, no country has a good way to deal with submarines. Submarines have become a big killer for countries at this stage.
The less restrictive people are about submarines, the more attention his aircraft company gets.
According to his understanding, some military and private enterprises have received military assistance in anti-submarine projects during this period.
"Unorganized and chaotic!" Governor Seidl commented on the exaggerated figures on the TV screen, which were performance parameters announced by a small country at this time.
In general, all ship parameters were exaggerated to the point where laymen would know they were fake. Governor Seder then turned off the TV and turned to look at Lynch, who had been watching TV with him for a while, "Some people always I want to use hyperbole to get people's attention, but it's obviously pointless."
"The military project is not about selecting actresses, it requires some exaggerated figures, which is irresponsible for oneself and for allies!"
He used a wonderful metaphor, a not-so-funny joke, but a very vivid description.
"Then Mr. Lynch, what did you do when you came today?", he looked at Lynch, who was a little puzzled by Lynch's sudden visit.
Lynch is often unpredictable, like the company called the "Workers Union", so he didn't bother to guess, and asked directly.
Sometimes this is easier.
Lynch did not answer immediately, but took a small cookie from his pocket and asked the housekeeper for a plate.
He then placed the biscuits on a plate, neatly arranged.
"Biscuits?", His Excellency the Governor asked slightly unexpectedly, "Did you make this yourself?"
He picked up a piece and put it in front of his nose and sniffed it. There was a strong fragrance and some spice. It didn't smell bad. Crushed nuts.
He took a small bite, he never worried that Lynch would poison these cookies because he knew very well that Lynch must understand that if something went wrong after he ate the cookies, Lynch There is no way to get out of this room.
As for chronic poisoning?
He'll let Lynch try some later!
He broke the biscuit in his hand in half and handed the other half to Lynch, "Do you mind?"
Lynch took the biscuit and shook his head, "I don't mind..." he said and took a bite.
"It's very crisp, at least it's more crisp than I thought, the taste is not bad, the texture is a bit strange...", Governor Seder seriously commented on this biscuit.
In Gevra, making and sharing desserts is an important part of social culture. Every year during the New Year, the queen will give some small cakes and some cookies to the ladies of the nobles to show their closeness.
The Federation actually has a similar habit. For example, if a newly moved family wants to quickly open up interpersonal relationships in the community, the easiest way is to share cakes and fruit pie. The sweeter and sour the better!
Governor Seder just took this as a kind of sharing, he ate a small half and put it on the plate, "You did a good job, but in terms of usage...", he shook his head, "There is still a long way to go before success and deliciousness."
Lynch also put his half of the biscuit on the plate. He took a hand towel from the butler and wiped his hand, "Your Excellency, the biscuit you have is my newest one. product, I intend to use it to replace the relief food currently being distributed by Amelia.”
The housekeeper was stunned, and Governor Seder was also stunned. The biscuits that the Emotion Governor just ate were actually prepared for the untouchables?
Fortunately, the Governor is quite restrained and tolerant. He was a little angry, but he didn't show it.
Lynch didn't care so much, and asked directly, "How do you think it tastes?"
Considering that Lynch also ate it, His Excellency the Governor frowned and thought for a while, "I think it's very general, there is nothing special about it, except that it tastes very fragrant, and there is almost no merit."
Lynch nodded noncommittally and asked again, "I take the liberty to ask, have you ever eaten the relief food that is distributed on the street outside?"
His Excellency the Governor shook his head, "I haven't eaten."
Lynch said, "I've eaten it, it's like shit, it's not delicious, and I can't get enough."
"I'm going to talk to you about this business~IndoMTL.com~ I'll take at least the job of food relief in Zhuris City, which means stop handing out **** on the streets and switch to handing out cookies. "
"Its 'parameters' are very beautiful, it can meet the nutrients necessary for people's survival, and at the same time, it can satisfy the stomach, and its performance in hunger resistance is also very good."
"Adults only need three or five dollars to last their next meal, children may only need one or two..."
Governor Seddle, still calm, looked at the biscuits and asked, "What's in it for me, for the city, and for the region?"
The subtext of this sentence is "give you a chance to convince me", which is an act of sanity.
Lynch is back to doing what he does best, persuading people.
"First of all there is a saving, I'm not sure how much it will cost to distribute relief food throughout Ameria, but I can save you at least 5 percent."
"Five percent a day is 150 percent a month. You might think I'm bad at math, but we can calculate this number another way."
"If you spend 1 million a day on this, then you give me this job, and you can save at least 1.5 million per month."
"Secondly, if the production of Lies is to resume, it is not enough to keep people hungry all the time. Only when they are full can they have the strength to work, live and study."
"This is not the time it used to be, and giving out some solid food can also help to ease the tension between each other..."
Lynch said a lot, all from reality.
Governor Seddle listened carefully, and gave his answer, "I'll think about it..."
At this moment, Lynch knew it had happened.
