Tsarist Empire: Please call me Tsarist Majesty

Chapter 126: Sixty-Six Fleet!!

Ming Zhi Tianhuang as an example, in order to expand his armaments, he only ate one meal a day.

Then, other cabinet ministers, as well as officials and soldiers of the entire Eastern Empire, naturally responded.

A cadre of cabinet ministers immediately said that they would receive only half of their salary every month starting next month, and the rest would be donated to the empire to expand the army.

The top brass of the army also said that it would be promoted to the army and navy of the Eastern Empire, so that officers and soldiers would pay half of their allowances.

Ming Zhi Tianhuang nodded repeatedly, and the comparison was very satisfied.

In his opinion, as long as the entire Eastern Empire is united.

Well, they can defeat any kind of enemy.

Even the Tsarist Russian Empire could never be their opponent.

“Your Majesty, the Imperial Army will expand its army starting this year. We plan to form 17 standing divisions, each of which will be at full strength.

Together with cavalry and artillery, the standing strength of the Imperial Army will be increased to more than 5.5 million men. In addition, the training of reserve forces will be further strengthened.

If the war is not going well, the Imperial Army can form a large number of troops to enter the battlefield at the first time, and it can also reinforce the troops on the front line! ”

Army Chief of Staff Senior General Yama Iwa reported.

“Yo West! Very good. The Empire has a large number of fierce warriors who are not afraid of death. No matter how strong the Russians are, they are definitely not the opponents of the imperial army. ”

Mingzhi Tianhuang was very satisfied.

In his opinion, as long as the Russian Empire did not give its best.

Then, the possibility of the victory of the Eastern Empire is still very large.

“What about the Navy? The Russians deployed a very powerful force in the Far East, more than ten battleships alone. Moreover, the Russians in the European region, there are several navies. As soon as our war with the Russians breaks out, they will definitely send their fleet from the region of Oshadia for reinforcement. We have to be prepared for this! ”

Ming Zhitianhuang looked at a high-ranking officer of the navy.

“Your Majesty, the navy has already made a battle plan. At the beginning of the war, we are ready to send a combined fleet to sneak up on the Russians’ Pacific Fleet and destroy them completely. Then, at leisure, a decisive battle was fought with Russian reinforcements. If the sun does not set, the people can create more problems for the Russians, such as banning the passage of Russian warships through the Suez Canal and not supplying the Russian military bases. Then, after their fleet bypassed most of the world and arrived in the Far East, the personnel must have been very tired, and the combat strength of the warships was greatly reduced due to the long voyage. Well, this is our chance. The combined fleet of the Imperial Navy will defeat them in one fell swoop and win the final victory! ”

Lieutenant General Heihachiro Higashigo, the commander of the joint meeting team, reported.

Ming Zhitianhuang’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he was originally worried that the navy might not be the opponent of the Russian imperial navy.

But unexpectedly, the navy had already figured out how to deal with the Russian imperial navy.

And it looks quite like that.

In this case, their chances of victory are undoubtedly very high!

As for the use of sneak attacks, will there be the face of the Eastern Empire.

In this regard, Ming Zhitianhuang didn’t care at all.

As long as the war can be won, even if it is humiliating, then what can be done? Face skin this thing, a few dollars a pound? Victory in the war is undoubtedly the most important thing.

The Russian Empire received information about overseas military bases from Gaul, and both sides kept it secret.

Moreover, the Russian Empire also intended to keep it secret. Both the Mahajanga naval base on Madagascar and the Cam Ranh Bay naval base in the Tianzhu Zhina colony have been built.

However, in order to confuse other countries, the flags of the Russian Empire in these two naval bases were Gaulish.

So much so that other countries simply did not know that each army of the Shawe Empire already had two footholds overseas.

Of course, if this continues for a long time, it will definitely show its stuffing.

However, there is still no problem in hiding from the people of the East in a short period of time.

Presumably, when the war broke out, the sun never set and the people of the East thought that they would be able to wait for work and defeat the Tsarist Imperial Navy in one fell swoop.

But during the decisive battle, they discovered that they were facing the Russian Imperial Navy, which was maintaining its combat strength at its peak.

So, how else did the Toyo people win the war?

“Your Majesty, we have received definite information that the two-belly armored cruiser ordered by the Argentines from the Kingdom of Caesar has been cancelled due to domestic financial problems. Both armored cruisers have already started work. It is expected to be in service next year. The kingdom of Caesar is looking around for someone to take over. This is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for the Imperial Navy! ”

Vice Admiral Yamamoto Gonbei, Minister of the Navy, said that although Yamamoto Gonbei is only a vice admiral, he has served as Minister of the Navy for three consecutive terms. In addition, when he was very young, he already advised the navy. It can be said that the development of the Oriental Imperial Navy has his ideas.

This also made Vice Admiral Yamamoto Gonbei have great influence in the Toyo Imperial Navy.

He is even known as the father of the navy of the Eastern Empire.

“Do you still want to buy battleships? We have already bought a lot of warships. The construction plan of the 66th Fleet proposed by the Navy before has been completed! 817。 ”

Prime Minister General Katsura Taro was somewhat dissatisfied.

After all, every battleship of the Navy requires a lot of money.

Especially battleships and armored cruisers, because the Eastern Empire currently does not have the ability to build these two large warships on its own, and can only rely on outward purchases.

Over the years, the Eastern Empire has spent a lot of money on this.

The 66th Fleet of the Imperial Navy of the East Ocean refers to the construction of a fleet with six battleships and six armored cruisers as the core.

At present, this plan of the Oriental Imperial Navy has been completed.

Six battleships, two Fuji-class battleships, the battleship Fuji and the battleship Yashima.

The battleships of the Shikishiki-class class, namely the battleship Shikishima, the battleship Asahi, and the battleship Hatsurai see the three changes of the Drill Go.

Six armored cruisers, two Asama-class armored cruisers, the Asama armored cruiser and the Tokiwa armored cruiser. Yakumo: Armored cruiser.

Azuma armored cruiser.

As well as two Izumo-class armored cruisers, the Izumo armored cruiser and the armored cruiser Iwate.

These twelve warships formed the core of the Sixth and Sixth Fleet of the Eastern Ocean Empire…
