0888 Talking About a Big Business [This Chapter Is Written By: Three Thousand Galaxy丶688 Title and Update-5/? ]

On the morning after the cruise ship was discovered, senior Navy officials, including the Department of Defense commissioner, all participated in a conference call.

The person who presided over the conference call was actually not an active naval officer or an important official of the Ministry of Defense, but an ordinary person from society, Lynch.

"...During the course of this incident, our navy has actually shown some fatal problems, such as our inability to quickly and effectively lock down enemies who may have invaded federal waters."

Lynch's statement caused everyone on the phone line to remain silent because he was telling the truth. The cruise ship had been missing for a total of six days, and the Navy found nothing during those six days.

They mobilized nearly twenty warships of various sizes to search for the cruise ship, but nothing was found.

If Lynch's planes hadn't discovered the cruise ship first, it might have been a while before they found it.

At this time, a rear admiral spoke up and wanted to save the current situation that was not conducive to the navy, "Mr. Lynch, I know that as one of the victims, you are very angry now, but this does not mean that our navy has done nothing. We’re just not as good as you think.”

"This is actually not our problem. It's like everyone knows to call the police when they are in trouble. However, the police cannot appear at everyone's side immediately. This requires a process."

"Even if there were no planes, we would have found the cruise ship, and it wouldn't have taken much longer."

His speech was affirmed by many senior military officers. People who have never been to the sea will never know what the real sea is like.

Many people think that the sea level can actually extend far, far away. In fact, the distance between the sea level and the sea level is not that far away.

Sometimes it even gives people the feeling that they are going in the wrong direction because they are "out of sight", so they change direction and want to go somewhere else to see what happened, ultimately missing the target.

The laughter coming from Lynch made some naval generals feel very unhappy. Some people wanted to propose ending this meaningless conference call, but the Vice Admiral, who was serving his sentence at home, spoke up.

"Go on, Lynch, I believe you asked for this conference call to do more than just whine at us."

His Excellency the Lieutenant General's words made all the generals who were listening on the phone terminals give up their previous thoughts. Everyone knew that once His Excellency the Lieutenant General's sentence was over, he would definitely be the new admiral of the Federation.

Even because he has the experience and qualifications to command federal warships to defeat the Gefra Armada, he will become the first truly powerful naval marshal in the history of the federation.

The words of such a person carry a lot of weight, at least more weight than Lynch's words to these generals and important officials of the Ministry of National Defense.

"My generals, you know the cruelty of war better than I do. War will not allow us to compromise on time."

"By detecting the enemy earlier, we can protect our Gulf cities and ports from military strikes."

"The earlier we lock the enemy, we can take the lead in launching an attack and seize the initiative in the war."

"The word 'take the lead' is very important in war, and the time when the cruise ship was hijacked also illustrates this. If we had called in aircraft to conduct comprehensive reconnaissance from the beginning, maybe I would have done it a few days ago. Already back on federal land.”

The Lieutenant General recognized this point of view. He knew the whole process of this search and rescue, and also knew that the aircraft was indeed of great use. "We have ordered two hundred aircraft, and we will put them into the new war system as appropriate." middle."

"That's not what I'm talking about, General. Of course it has something to do with it."

"I heard that planes have flown back and forth many times during this period. If our planes can take off from more places, they will certainly be more useful..."

"Say what you think directly, Mr. Lynch. We are not good at playing word games with capitalists like you, so we should be more direct."

Someone interjected, his voice sounded not young, at least he was a naval officer like a rear admiral.

Lynch chuckled a few times, "Well, to put it simply, my idea is to establish a complete maritime reconnaissance area in the Atlantic and Eastern Oceans, and build more airports and ports to complete rapid response."

"Perhaps we got the news just after the Gefra people's fleet left the port. When they didn't know anything about us, we were already waiting for them halfway."

"The asymmetry of information can provide us with more opportunities and probabilities to defeat the enemy. Gentlemen, if our planes are spread across the entire Atlantic Ocean, maybe you will know what happened to the cruise ship and where it will go a week ago!"

"And some additional supply ports can ensure that our fleet can receive supplies and even repairs at any time and anywhere!"

"Once war breaks out, we will establish an unparalleled huge advantage!"

Lynch's words made all the naval generals think. The biggest problem with this search and rescue cruise ship is that it cannot be found.

No one knows where it went, which was the fundamental reason why pirates were rampant during this period.

They don't have a base camp, they just go wherever it's easy to hang out.

Wherever you hold on tightly, you will immediately find another place to make a living.

As long as you can't catch them and stop them, you can't eliminate them.

At the same time, this also reflects the backwardness of the war response mechanism. What if this cruise ship is an enemy warship, or even a battle group?

Does the fact that they have been undetected off the west coast of the Federation for so long mean that during this period of time, they could bombard any city on the west coast at any time if they wanted to?

This is equivalent to being completely defenseless!

This idea proposed by Lynch——

Using aircraft to form a reconnaissance network covering the entire Atlantic and Eastern Oceans has excited the Navy's top brass.

And they also realized the value of airplanes through this incident. The main reason is that this thing flies too fast, faster than a cruiser, and many times faster!

Speed ​​is the key to victory in war.

Plus a port with supplies at any time, it’s a little something.

Lynch mentioned this idea to the Lieutenant General before, but the Lieutenant General did not know what the aircraft could do specifically, so he did not give Lynch any reply.

Now he knows something, at least the speed of the plane is very fast. After the navy fleet went out for a round trip, the plane has already made more than ten round trips, and the speed is simply incomparable.

In addition, it is said that the aircraft can also drop bombs, which can also play a key role in attacking enemy warships. The Lieutenant General is already a little tempted.

He thought for a while and said, "Now there are two more questions."

“First, we are not sure about the irreplaceability and necessity of the aircraft. Although it is indeed valuable to us in some respects, this value is not enough for us to establish a terrible budget specifically for it. "

"You have to show it's irreplaceable and important, and convincing those in Congress is not that easy."

"Second, aircraft is a very new thing, and it will take a long time to explore its specific uses. We cannot fully develop it in the initial stage of exploration. This requires a process."

"Technology is advancing every day, and maybe something new will replace it soon. I heard... the company's Sky Fortress plan is almost completed, and we also need to compare."

The Flying Fortress is a very secretive plan, and its core content is to build an "air battleship."

At least two twin main guns, which is the lowest indicator in the Sky Fortress plan, but it is enough to make the federal military tempted.

Once this thing flies over the enemy, nothing can restrain it.

The military has been supporting this top-secret program, and many people believe that this is the real future, at least until Lynch's plane comes out, they think so.

This was the first time Lynch heard the name of this plan, but he didn't care at all. "There will be a small-scale armed battle in two days. At that time, the aircraft will cooperate with Blackstone Security's ground offensive forces."

"At that time, you will be able to see the specific role of the aircraft. It is definitely not as simple as you imagine."

"I don't know if the Flying Fortress is the one I know. If it is, I can only say that it is a wrong future. Airplanes are the real future!"

After the connection ended, everyone was recalling the series of events caused by the accident.

Lynch, on the other hand, called Lem and asked if his account was full.

To his slight surprise, Lem didn't answer the phone. Then he called the exchange, and the exchange confirmed that there were no problems with his account.

With a slightly envious tone, the manager let Lynch know that he had made another big profit. When asked about Lem, the other party said that he had not seen him at the exchange for two days.

This situation is actually very abnormal. Except for the financial practitioners in Bupen who do not go to the exchange on their rest days, they stay in the exchange from morning to night at other times.

Some financial companies even directly rent the floors or rooms of the exchange and place their companies in the exchange.

When Lem didn't show up for two days, something must have happened to him.

"Do you have any contact with the media here?" After Lynch put down the phone, he returned to the bedroom, where the girl was still resting.

She hid in the ventilation duct for two days, during which she had to solve two personal problems. This experience... was really rare.

So much so that her spirit has not recovered yet.

"You can call my agent, she knows what to do."

Not long after, the media on the West Coast got the news that Lynch was going to hold a personal press conference and there was big news to be announced!
