Chapter 521 I'm threatening you, are you dissatisfied?
Jiang Chaoyang stood on the bridge, looking at the embarrassed figure of the military attaché from John Country leaving, and suddenly Fang Yu's words before leaving emerged in his mind.
"Strait of Malacca,"
Fang Yu was standing in front of the map, his finger running across the long and narrow waterway.
"This is the throat connecting the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. Whoever controls it controls the maritime lifeline of the entire Asia."
Jiang Chaoyang walked to the electronic map in the operations room.
On the screen, shipping routes spread across the Southeast Asian waters like blood vessels.
The thickest of them is the main channel through the Strait of Malacca.
Tens of thousands of merchant ships and oil tankers pass through here every year, especially in the Sakura Country, where almost all energy and raw materials pass through this waterway.
"Controlling Xingzhou will not only free Dragon Country from threats, but will also strangle Sakura Country."
He muttered to himself.
The chief of staff came over and spoke cautiously.
"Commander, is what you just said to the military attaché from John Country true?"
"If we really take action against Singapore, I'm afraid it will cause a strong reaction from the international community."
Jiang Chaoyang turned around with a firm look in his eyes.
"Do you think I don't know?"
"But think about it, if we allow the Johns to continue to occupy this place and let them join forces with the Eagles, our maritime lifeline could be cut off at any time."
“Now is our only chance.”
He walked to the porthole and looked at the bustling port of Xingzhou.
On the streets, groups of dragon people were looking up at the Dragon Kingdom fighter planes in the sky.
There was both pride and expectation in their eyes.
"Xiao Fang is right," Jiang Chaoyang said firmly. "If Dragon Country wants to become truly powerful, it must open up this maritime lifeline."
"If you don't take what God gives you, you will suffer the consequences!"
"Xinzhou is the most critical link in this line. I must take it for my country!"
He turned to the communicator and said, "Order the 'Saker Falcon' formation to prepare for the second round of low-altitude passes."
"This time, it flew over the Governor's Palace of John's countrymen."
"But Commander," the Chief of Staff hesitated, "if after returning home..."
"I know," Jiang Chaoyang interrupted him, "but some things are worth the risk."
The officers on the bridge looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.
They knew that the commander was determined to rewrite history in this sea area.
On the streets of Xingzhou, more and more dragon people gathered at the port.
They looked up at the Dragon Kingdom fighter planes circling in the sky, with hope glimmering in their eyes.
Five hundred years ago, Zheng He's treasure ship passed through here; today, the Dragon Kingdom's steel fleet has arrived again.
The wheel of history is turning.
And Jiang Chaoyang is ready to face any possible consequences.
Because he knew that some things were worth gambling his future on...
……
In the Xingzhou Governor's Palace, Nicholson's face turned pale instantly after listening to the military attaché's report.
He slammed his fist on the solid wooden desk, making a dull sound.
"Damn Dragon people!" He growled, gritting his teeth. "How dare you challenge the majesty of the Great Hard Empire like this!"
But after the anger, there comes a deep sense of powerlessness.
He walked to the window and looked at the huge Dragon Kingdom fleet in the harbor, feeling mixed emotions.
The wounds of World War II have not yet healed, and the two superpowers, Eagle and Bear, are suppressing it in secret. The once powerful empire where "the sun never sets" is declining at an accelerated pace.
The few old warships of the Far East Fleet are not even as powerful as a destroyer of the Dragon Kingdom, let alone that formidable aircraft carrier.
"The glory of the Great Hard Empire..." Nicholson muttered to himself, his voice full of bitterness, "When will we have to bow to these Orientals?"
An aide approached cautiously, "Your Excellency the Governor, we must make a decision quickly."
"The Dragon Kingdom fleet has entered combat readiness. If we don't respond..."
"I know!" Nicholson turned around abruptly. "Do you think I can't see it? Those carrier-based aircraft circling over the Governor's Mansion are clearly threatening us!"
There was silence in the office.
Everyone knows that if a war really breaks out, Singapore will not be able to be defended.
The strength displayed by the Dragon Kingdom fleet has far exceeded their imagination.
"Send the military attaché back," Nicholson finally said, his voice tinged with fatigue. "Tell those Dragons we're willing to negotiate."
"What are the conditions for the negotiation?" the staff asked.
Nicholson closed his eyes, as if every word was cutting into his heart.
"Tell them that Singapore is John's core interest in the Far East and we cannot give it up. But..."
He paused, his voice becoming unusually hoarse.
"They can choose any colony in other parts of Maria. As long as they are willing to leave Xingzhou alone."
The John Country officials in the office looked at each other in confusion.
Such concessions would have been unthinkable before, but now, they have no choice.
"Also," Nicholson added, "apologize to Commander Jiang for me. Tell him that my attitude just now was too arrogant, and I hope he will forgive me."
The military officer nodded and turned to leave.
As he walked out of the gate of the Governor's Mansion, another team of "Saker Falcon" fighter planes roared past overhead.
The roar of the engine seemed to be mixed with the wailing of a huge empire heading towards decline.
In the dragon area of the port, people were still cheering.
They didn't know what was happening in the Governor's Mansion, but they could feel that a new era was coming.
The Dragon Kingdom fleet anchored in the port is the best symbol of this new era.
On the bridge of the Kunpeng, Jiang Chaoyang was waiting for the response from John's people.
He knew that no matter what choice the other party made, the wheel of history would turn in a new direction at this moment.
This ancient Eastern nation, once divided up by Western powers, is finally about to rise again in this sea...
