When Liu Changxun suddenly arrived and saw Liu Changxun's anxious look, Xue Yuanzheng was shocked.

However, he was not panicked, but pretended not to see it.

Xue Yuanzheng is very familiar with Liu Changxun. If Liu Changxun has any characteristics, he just likes to make a fuss.

Of course, it is not that Liu Changxun likes to do it, but that he does it on purpose.

Don’t forget that Xue Yuanzheng was an army general before entering politics, so in the military field, he obviously tended toward the army rather than the navy.

Many times, even if it is just to attract attention and prove his existence, Liu Changxun needs to be more exaggerated.

Otherwise, in the official residence of the Chief Secretary, he would have been buried by Peng Huaisheng and Situ Jingde long ago.

The best way to deal with Liu Changxun’s fuss is to pretend that he didn’t see it.

"Just tell me if you have anything." But this time, Xue Yuanzheng did not intend to waste time, after all, there were too many things he needed to deal with.

"What I just received has been confirmed." Liu Changxun said, and when he sat down, he placed the folder he brought in front of Xue Yuanzheng.

After turning his eyes, Xue Yuanzheng immediately frowned.

The message is just a piece of paper, and below the message is a stacked map. The upper side is looking east and there is a marked route on it.

Obviously, Liu Changxun did put his heart into it.

After watching it, Xue Yuanzheng raised his head and looked at Liu Changxun.

"I have contacted the submarine, and the captain made it very clear. After comparing the information I obtained before and after, I can be sure that it is the 21st special mixed fleet."

“Didn’t receive more direct news?”

"Before I came here, I didn't receive a telegram from Bai Zhizhan. I have already said hello, and as long as I receive the message, I will call you immediately."

Now, Xue Yuanzheng's brows were locked tighter.

The situation was clear at a glance. After attacking the 31st TCM fleet in Newland, it did not return westward as planned or imagined, but sailed northward. The only reasonable explanation is that Bai Zhizhan planned to take the fleet to blockade the Hovayi Islands.

Xue Yuanzheng was not surprised at Bai Zhizhan's courage.

Although he is usually gentle and polite, he rarely fights with others or even speaks loudly, but when he goes to the battlefield, he becomes another person.

In addition, Bai Zhizhan has always been famous for his courage.

As for the purpose of leading the fleet northward, other than blocking the Hovay Islands, it is even simpler.

What really made Xue Yuanzheng wonder or wonder was actually why Liu Changxun came to him for this not-too-big thing.

What Bai Zhizhan is doing now is clearly to take advantage of the victory and expand the hard-won victory.

Of course, we are also considering the long-term, that is, after capturing the transit islands, attacking the islands east of the archipelago, and striving to capture the Hovay Islands in one fell swoop.

If we want to increase investment, we can only arrange the army aviation force to participate in the war at most.

Obviously, from the standpoint of the empire's top leaders, this is not a big problem.

So, why did Liu Changxun act so exaggeratedly?

If others don't understand, then you can believe it.

If you want to play tricks in front of Xue Yuanzheng, Liu Changxun's ability is obviously a little worse.

After a little thought, Xue Yuanzheng understood.

Liu Changxun's performance was so exaggerated that he was actually laying the groundwork for what happened next so that Xue Yuanzheng could be mentally prepared and accept the upcoming reality calmly.

This reality is to put the navy first!

Bai Zhizhan led the fleet northward and set out to blockade the Hovayi Islands, in fact, in the hope of further expanding his strategic advantages in the East Ocean.

Obviously, this conflicts with attacks in other directions.

Don’t forget that the situation between Fan Yanyang and Lu Xinhai has not improved, especially in Lu Xinhai, where the Malta Tsuman army may be annihilated at any time.

It can also be said that Liu Changxun’s current situation is very embarrassing.

Bai Zhizhan is the leader of the army and may not obey the commander-in-chief of the Navy, and Liu Changxun cannot point fingers at the fleet's combat operations.

In this way, unless Xue Yuanzheng comes forward, he will have to fight Bai Zhi.

It can be seen that Liu Changxun's move was equivalent to kicking the ball to Xue Yuanzheng.

If Bai Zhizhan wants to get back, as agreed before, after the situation on the transit island stabilizes, he will immediately send a special fleet to Fan Yanyang to launch a combat operation to attack the Kibu Fortress, then attack the Xifan Canal and advance to the Lu Xinhai, and open up a sea route to the Raleigh Kingdom. Xue Yuanzheng must come forward in person and give orders to Bai Zhizhan as the chief minister of the empire and the actual supreme commander of the imperial army.

Otherwise, it cannot be said that Liu Changxun has not fulfilled his responsibilities.

The problem lies in this place.

Need to get Bai Zhizhan back?

"How much fuel is left in the 21st Special Mixed Fleet, and how long can it take to move outside?" Xue Yuanzheng did not immediately mention the topic of Liu Changxun's concern.

"This is not accurate." Liu Changxun was not stupid either.

In any case, Xue Yuanzheng only understood the tactics of the army and was obviously a layman for the navy, especially the tactics related to the fleet.

Xue Yuanzheng's brows jumped a few times and looked at Liu Changxun incomprehensible.

"If you are performing a break-in mission, you can get fuel from the captured enemy ships."

"Where is the ammunition?"

"If it is mainly blockade and interception, it may take several months."

Xue Yuanzheng was speechless because Liu Changxun was clearly practicing Tai Chi.

"If there is no accident, when will the transfer island be set up as soon as possible?"

"One month, maybe three months, maybe half a year, mainly depends on the morale and fighting spirit of the defenders, and whether the Newland Navy will continue to fight with us."

"So, we will take one month."

Xue Yuanzheng obviously lost his patience, and Liu Changxun was also obviously surprised.

"Today next month, if the transit island is still not captured, a special-mix fleet will be withdrawn and sent to Fan Yanyang to assist the 11th special-mix fleet in attacking the Kibu Fortress."

"What if the transfer island is set up?"

"Make another arrangement."

Liu Changxun was stunned for a moment, but unexpectedly Xue Yuanzheng was also playing Tai Chi with him.

The key is that this trick is very good.

What does it mean to "make another arrangement"?

This is a pit in itself!

After capturing the transit island, we naturally had to send the special mixed fleet to Fanyan Ocean, and then launch a combat operation to march into the Posar Bay and attack the Kibu Fortress as planned.

If you don't capture it, you have to withdraw the special mixed fleet.

It can be seen that Xue Yuanzheng did not make any guarantees after this statement.

If you want to say it, it was to give Liu Changxun a month to make adjustments to the naval force deployment and turn the focus to Fan Yanyang.

"The electricity generation told Bai Zhizhan that no matter what he wanted to do, he had to hurry up. By the end of the year, we must obtain oil from Posa Bay."

"Okay, I'll send him a report now."

"There is one more thing, remember to tell him. The little princess gave birth to a big fat boy. He is a father, so don't be so unreliable in doing things."

After hearing what Xue Yuanzheng said, Liu Changxun couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Ginger is still spicy.

Just this sentence solved all the problems.

This is not a father.

If Bai Zhizhan still didn't know what was going on and was unwilling to take the fleet back, maybe Xue Yuanzheng wouldn't have to come forward, and the Privy Council would just issue an imperial edict.

If there is one more member of the imperial royal family, that is not a trivial matter!
