Therefore, the Western Empire immediately contacted the Sakura Empire. Everyone in the world knew about the relationship between the Sakura Empire and the Western Empire. That was a gun left in Asia by the Western Empire. It might not be a big threat, but it could also be used to harass people from time to time.
After learning what their neighbor had done, the Sakura Nation naturally stood on the same side as the Western Empire. Soon, several warships began to move towards the Jing Wei Islands. After all, that place was not too far from the territorial waters of Sakura Islands.
Things in the high seas were often not clarified by reason. All along, the attitude of various countries regarding what happened in the high seas was nothing more than turning a blind eye.
Everyone was right. That was why the high seas had become a place that no country was willing to touch. But the Western Empire was really anxious. They did not know how long it had been since the Eastern Ancient Kingdom’s military discovered the ruins of civilization.
If the Ancient Eastern Kingdom really obtained the ruins of civilization and discovered some important information from them, it would be a huge threat to the Western Empire.
The Sakura Nation was just a chess piece he had sent out to test the attitude of the Ancient Kingdom of the East. However, the Sakura Nation did not know about this. They were even complacent because they had been placed in an important position.
The upper echelons of Sakura Nation had even begun to daydream. They thought that if they could help the Western Empire occupy this ruin, perhaps the Western Empire could share their discoveries in the ruin.
At that time, the status of Sakura Nation would also rise. After all, the current ancient country of the East had yet to make any progress in genetic experiments. In the eyes of Sakura Nation, this neighbor had already begun to decline as he did not follow suit and enter the new century. Instead, he remained old and conservative in the old era.
If he fell behind, he would be beaten up. This was an unchanging law.
The mobilization of the Sakura warships quickly attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the Ancient Eastern Kingdom. Not long after, a helicopter landed in the Dayu Fleet’s military district.
The two commanders of the Dayu Fleet personally came to the side of the helicopter to welcome him. It was obvious that this big shot was extraordinary. Soon, an officer alighted from the helicopter. The rank on this officer’s shoulders was far higher than the two fleet commanders.
The two of them quickly saluted the officer. “Greetings, Chief!”
It was none other than the Head of the Military Department, Zhao Guofeng. He looked at the two commanders in front of him with a serious expression and said in a low voice, “Let’s cut the small talk. I only have one goal this time, and that is to personally supervise the situation in the Jing Wei Islands. It seemed that the Western Empire had already started investigating the alien ruins. However, they did not expect us to have already confirmed the location of the ruins.
“The Western Empire still naively hoped that they could use world public opinion to force the Eastern Ancient Kingdom to compromise, but how could we give in to such a matter? The Sakura Nation must have received an order from the Western Empire to mobilize eight warships in a row. From the trajectory of the ships, their ultimate goal must be the Jing Wei Islands.
“So I only have two orders to give!
“First, start the deployment immediately. I need to make the Jing Wei Islands an unshakable barrier in the shortest time possible. Secondly, make the best use of your time to evacuate the tourist islands developed on the Jing Wei Islands.
“All the citizens of the country must evacuate immediately. I don’t want to be held back when the situation worsens.”
As the two commanders followed Zhao Guofeng to the meeting room, they carefully memorized the two orders Zhao Guofeng gave. The Dayu Fleet moved at the same time. Eight warships escorted the three transport ships to the Jing Wei Islands. His attitude was completely clear. The Ancient Kingdom of the East would definitely not give in to him on this matter.
In any case, they were both on the high seas. No one had more reason than the other.
To put it bluntly, wasn’t it just robbing? Reasoning with bandits had never been the style of the Ancient Eastern Kingdom.
In the meeting room, Zhao Guofeng looked at the sea map and made a detailed analysis. “The Sakura Nation is just a spear of the Western Empire. The warships they sent are also testing our attitude. However, there was one thing that everyone should not be too optimistic about. The Western Empire would definitely not give up on the ruins of civilization so easily.
“Our exploration team will arrive at the Jing Wei Islands in less than an hour. After that, they will enter the ruins to explore without stopping. During this period, no armed forces of any faction are allowed to approach the Jing Wei Islands. This is my death order.”
When the commander-in-chief of the Dayu Fleet heard this, he immediately nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry, Chief. Our vanguard warship has already been mobilized. All parts are mobilizing their armed forces and are ready to support the Jing Wei Islands at any time. Coupled with the evacuation time, we should be able to deploy the entire Jing Wei Islands before 12 p.m. tonight. From the looks of it, we will definitely complete the sea defense line before the Sakura Nation.”
“Very good!” Zhao Guofeng stood in front of everyone with his hands behind his back. His eyes were bright and his voice was powerful. “The changes in the past few years have been too fast. We’ve even been overshadowed by the momentum of various countries around the world. It was also time to show off his skills and tell everyone that no matter what era this world had entered, our country was not something that anyone could easily provoke.”
