Chapter 1090
The Mad Scientist, the Eastern Wilderness Invasion!
Matsushita Shun's words stirred the blood of all the cabinet members, including Noda Taro, as if they had returned to the era when they could do whatever they wanted!
From ancient times to the present, the Eastern Wilderness tribe has always looked up to the Dragon Xia tribe, then envied them, and finally wanted to replace them. This idea has become an obsession!
So Noda Taro immediately made the decision and said, "Okay, let's do it this way!"
If they don't take advantage of the situation now, are they going to wait until the Longxia tribe has grown stronger before making their move? By then, they might be the ones being targeted!
"Inoue Hiroshi!"
He called out a name, and a fat man whose physique matched the name stood up, wearing a tight-fitting navy uniform with buttons that looked like they were about to burst open.
But he is the current Admiral of the Navy! A top student who graduated from the Eastern Wilderness Tribe Naval Academy, he also spent thirteen years training in the Navy, serving as a lieutenant, lieutenant commander, and eventually major admiral in various naval departments.
After Noda Taro became the head of the cabinet, he was directly promoted to admiral! He was arguably the fastest-rising man in the Eastern Wilderness Tribe Navy!
All of this is inseparable from Inoue Hi's efforts and his older sister who became the boss's wife. The boss, Noda Taro, is his brother-in-law!
"To!"
Although Inoue Hiroshi's physique is striking, almost comparable to that of a sumo wrestler, he has a good spirit and a head of shiny black hair that looks like it has been licked by a dog, reflecting light under the lamp.
Noda Taro disliked his brother-in-law very much; in his mind, he was just a gluttonous pig!
But who can blame this pig for having such a wonderful older sister?
Besides, he's the brother-in-law after all, so he should be taken care of. Therefore, it's most appropriate for the brother-in-law to step in when it's time to claim credit.
"I order you to lead the Vajra Fleet to the Ryukyu Islands, break through the first island chain of the Longxia tribe, and approach the Longxia mainland. In case of conflict, withdraw immediately!"
This is essentially sending Inoue Hiroshi to sail a destroyer around the entrance of the Longxia tribe to test their strength.
Inoue Fei's fat jiggled, and he said heavily, "Yes, mission accomplished!"
Soon, the destroyer Kongo set sail, carrying Patriot D75 warships purchased from the Eagle Tribe.
The Patriot D75 is a cruiser built by the Eagle Tribe thirty years ago, equipped with Patriot missiles and the latest Aegis anti-missile system.
The reason the Eastern Wilderness Tribe bought a 30-year-old junk was because of this Aegis anti-missile interception system, which is said to be able to intercept all types of missiles on Earth!
However, the Aegis system equipped on the warships is the older model, designated "Aegis D11," while the naval bases built on the Ryukyu Islands are equipped with the latest Aegis system, designated "Aegis F70."
However, the Eastern Wilderness didn't care about these things. So what if it was an old model warship from thirty years ago? It was still more advanced than most warships in the world.
Moreover, the Aegis system, which can intercept missiles, is simply the icing on the cake!
Little did they know that the Dragon Summer Tribe already knew about the Eastern Wilderness's purchase of Patriot D75 warships, but seeing that they were buying old and dilapidated equipment, they did not intervene.
However, this fueled the ambitions of the Eastern Wilderness tribes, causing them to become arrogant and complacent!
The fleet set off in a grand procession, and Noda Taro began to promote his Noda economics and the upcoming expedition among the tribes.
They call it a "holy war" to reclaim everything they have lost, and they promote the Longxia tribe threat theory, believing that their Eastern Wilderness tribe has reached this point because of the Longxia tribe.
This can incite hatred among the domestic population and encourage them to support jihad.
Noda Taro's approval rating once soared to 76.5%, more than double what it had been before!
Countless people in the tribe marched through the streets with banners and photos of Noda Taro. Under this mentality, some Longxia people who went to the Donghuang tribe for tourism or business also suffered.
Being vandalized and looted was the least of their worries; some even suffered severe physical abuse!
While chaos reigned on one side, the Longxia tribe remained peaceful on the other. Since their successful counterattack against the Eagle tribe, no one dared to provoke them anymore.
But the neighbor, who's always causing trouble, just can't stand seeing them doing well, so he came again!
When Xue Shuai received the report, he was stunned.
"Have the Eastern Wilderness tribes gone mad? They were quiet for just a few months, and now they're back? It seems the last time didn't teach them a lesson!"
As they were talking, Liu Huaming came directly to his office.
"Commander Xue! The Eastern Wilderness Tribe's fleet is here! What should we do this time? Fight or not?"
"What do you think?" Xue Shuai appeared very calm and did not panic.
Liu Huaming clenched his fist heavily: "Of course we'll fight! These bastards never learn their lesson. This time we'll make them feel the pain and be afraid so they won't dare to provoke us again!"
“Alright! I agree with the principle! But the Eastern Wilderness Tribe has provoked us time and time again over the years, and failed time and time again. Have they ever remembered anything? The Eastern Wilderness Tribe is a malignant tumor! Only by completely removing it can we solve the problem!”
“So even if we repel them again this time, they will still come back with a vengeance… But we may need to discuss this with someone.” Xue Shuai spoke slowly, his tone mature and composed.
Liu Huaming was taken aback: "You mean... Su Dingping? Is it really a good idea to let him get involved in this kind of thing?"
"Go ask them," Xue Shuai nodded. "After all, the most important thing for the tribe right now is the research on the stellarator device that Su Dingping is in charge of."
"That kid was so confident before, we need to teach him a lesson about the dangers of the international community!"
So Liu Huaming went straight to Longxin Laboratory and found Su Dingping.
However, the moment he saw Su Dingping, he doubted that he had found the wrong person, because Su Dingping looked extremely haggard, with a stubble beard and dark circles under his eyes.
However, it perfectly matches Liu Huaming's image of a researcher who works tirelessly on experiments.
"How did things get like this? Even if you're going to do an experiment, you need to take care of your health!" He stepped forward and reprimanded sternly.
Su Dingping stood up and chuckled, "It's alright, Chief. I can handle it. Besides, I'm still young and need to accumulate more experience."
Guo Xueyun, who was standing to the side, was almost in tears. She wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth and then didn't say anything.
Liu Huaming saw all of this and asked gently, "Xueyun, you speak! As Comrade Dingping's assistant, you're not quite up to the task."
Encouraged, Guo Xueyun finally spoke up: "Commander, why don't you keep an eye on Comrade Su Dingping? He's been in the lab for three days and three nights doing experiments! I told him to go back and rest, but he won't!"
As she spoke, two tears fell from her eyes.
Su Dingping immediately felt a pang of heartache. The reason he was working so hard was because all the experiments he had conducted during this period had failed, and the already immense pressure had now become even greater.
Most importantly, he couldn't figure out where the experiment failed. A lot of materials were wasted, but the experiment didn't make much progress.
This was unacceptable to him, who was very meticulous, so he conducted experiments like crazy, even during his breaks, he would conduct experiments in the forging space.
He would make the researchers correct any erroneous data obtained from the experiments, and the researchers dared not question him and could only comply. However, behind his back, they all called Su Dingping a "tyrant." Because once he entered that state, Su Dingping would not listen to anyone's words, hence this title, which reflects the researchers' love and hate for him.
Su Dingping knew he had gone a bit crazy lately, but he also wanted to make a breakthrough as soon as possible, so he just smiled and said, "Commander, I know I was wrong. I will definitely get some rest."
Judging from his expression, Liu Huaming could tell he wasn't being sincere, so he couldn't help but sigh: "You're just too hardworking! How can you keep going like this?"
"I am now ordering you to go and get some rest. Everything here depends on you!"
Su Dingping smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, Chief, I'm going to rest now. Xueyun, please tell the comrades in the lab to rest too!"
Guo Xueyun nodded quickly. To her, these words were like heavenly music. The researchers in the laboratory were all overjoyed to hear that they were going to take a break.
Because they are also very tired, the high-intensity experiments every day not only consume their physical strength, but also their mental energy. Now, no one in the entire laboratory is talking.
After everyone had left, Su Dingping frowned and looked at Liu Huaming, who hadn't gotten up: "Commander, is there anything else you need to do?"
Liu Huaming nodded and sighed, "There's something I want to tell you, but I don't know if I should say it now."
"Sir, please just say it!"
"Okay, then I'll tell you, and you need to come up with an idea too!"
Liu Huaming recounted how the Eastern Wilderness Fleet had set off for their Longxia tribe, and how it was heading straight for the first island chain of the Ryukyu Islands.
The Eagle Tribe has established a naval base in the Ryukyu Islands, and now the Eastern Wilderness Tribe is also coming to join in. This made Su Dingping's eyes sharpen instantly.
"Of course we have to fight!"
Liu Huaming nodded emphatically and smiled, "Yes, that's what I think too!"
"There's no need to reason with them. If they dare to lay a hand on you, just chop them up!"
Unexpectedly, Su Dingping changed his tone: "We can fight them, but we can just drive them away."
"What do you mean?" Liu Huaming frowned. This was not the Su Dingping he knew.
In the past, Su Dingping had always been very tough when he heard about the Eastern Wilderness tribes. Why did he change his attitude this time?
Su Dingping smiled slightly, though he still looked haggard, his eyes gleaming: "Commander, it's actually very simple. I don't believe they would just casually invade our waters; they must have some kind of plan!"
"If we launch a full-scale attack, we can at most wipe out one of their fleets. But if we know their plans, we can counterattack and make them suffer even greater losses!"
Liu Huaming slapped his thigh and chuckled, "As expected, it had to be you! We'll do it your way!"
"By the way, if we go to war, will it have any impact on you?"
Su Dingping waved his hand and laughed nonchalantly, "What impact could it have on me? If I win, I can eat two more bowls of rice!"
"it is good!"
Li Huaming suddenly stood up, exuding a sharp aura.
"Since the Eastern Wilderness Tribes want to test us again, let them see that they chose the wrong opponent!"
After Liu Huaming left, Su Dingping, under Guo Xueyun's deathly gaze, obediently went back to his dormitory to sleep.
While Su Dingping was sleeping, Inoue Hi's fleet finally arrived at the Ryukyu Islands. Since a naval base had been built there, his first stop was to visit the general at the naval base.
Unfortunately, they were sent away before they could even enter the base.
"Damn it! How dare you ignore me, Marshal! The day my Eastern Wilderness tribe rises to power, I'll lead my men to wipe out your little base first!"
Inoue Fei roared angrily, his fat trembling.
The officer next to him didn't dare to breathe, standing there like a quail.
"In that case, let's head straight to the Dragonxia tribe and show them the strength of our navy now!"
"Yes, Marshal!"
Inoue gave the order, and the fleet bypassed the naval base and continued on its way, while he himself returned to his room.
The hatch opened, revealing a woman's face.
"Marshal, why are you only just getting back?" the woman said with a coquettish laugh, pulling Inoue Hii towards the room.
Inoue Hiya gave a lewd smile, and after entering the room, he closed the door behind him.
The officers and sailors who witnessed this scene were all furious but dared not speak out. They had never heard of such an absurd thing as openly bringing women onto a warship!
But no one dared to report him. After all, Inoue was not only a marshal, but also the leader's brother-in-law. To report him would be suicidal.
Following the predetermined route, the fleet quickly intruded into the waters of the Longxia tribe. At this point, patrol ships appeared and issued a warning.
"Please leave the territory of this tribe immediately! Please leave the territory of this tribe immediately!"
The alarms blared in unison, but the patrol boats, faced with such a behemoth as the destroyer, dared not approach and could only issue warnings from a distance.
The message was reported back into the cabin, where Inoue, cursing, replied, "Ignore it, just run them over!"
"Marshal, this could very well cause friction with Long Xia. We must be careful!"
Inoue Fei scoffed, "What's there to be afraid of? We have an entire fleet. Does the Dragon Summer Tribe dare to attack us? Let's crush them!"
The officers at the control panel exchanged bewildered glances. Had they already forgotten the crushing defeat a few months ago? Longxia's fleet was no mere decoration.
Long Xia is no longer the same Long Xia.
She is waking up! (End of Chapter)
