Chapter 2186: Revenge?
Dragon Kingdom - High-Level Meeting
The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat somber.
Naval representatives are reporting on the losses from this battle.
"After the final count, we lost a total of fifty-three battleships of different types in this battle."
In addition, sixteen warships suffered severe damage, some of which were rendered unusable on the return journey and had to be tugboats brought back. Others were unable to be started after arriving at the dock.
The repair department is assessing these severely damaged warships to determine whether they are worth repairing.
In addition, the complete list of our casualties has been compiled.
In this battle.
Our death toll is 5,379.
In addition, three people became vegetative and fifteen people were paralyzed.
Three hundred and twenty-one people were seriously injured.
After listening to these reports.
Many people at the scene did not look well.
This can be said to be the most serious loss since the establishment of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Among them, the JF-17 Ninth Carrier Strike Group suffered the most severe losses, with a casualty rate exceeding 50%, which is almost at its limit."
"In addition, the JF-17 carrier battle group, which arrived to provide immediate support, also suffered significant losses," someone added.
Zhao Chen clenched his fists and supported his chin.
His eyes held a hint of gloom.
"What did the staff say?"
"According to our staff's assessment."
This battle was highly targeted.
There's a greater than 91% probability that this military operation is specifically targeting us!
Where did you come from?
"Based on our calculations."
The probability of it being the Eastern Continent exceeds 90%.
The South China Sea islands could not possibly support such a large navy.
"The Eastern Continent," Zhao Chen muttered.
He then looked toward the military headquarters.
And you?
"If the enemy invades us, we will annihilate them!" Marshal Chu Xuan said earnestly.
Admiral Medusa's snake-like eyes flashed with murderous intent: "My entire navy is willing to volunteer for battle; we must avenge our defeat!"
Zhao Chen looked at Barbara, the secretary beside him: "Where is your secretarial department?"
"According to our secretariat's calculations."
From the perspective of direct practical benefits.
Launching retaliatory action now would be a very low-value endeavor.
Because our naval warships are currently entering a period of replacement and upgrading.
Our existing warships are being developed into more advanced warships.
Missiles, radar, jet-powered carrier-based aircraft, and even unmanned combat systems.
These are currently undergoing upgrades and replacements, and it will take at least another year and a half to complete these upgrades.
Marshal Chu Xuan, Marshal Medusa, and other military personnel did not have very good expressions.
“But to say there are no countermeasures at all is inappropriate,” Barbara’s secretary said, changing the subject.
"Therefore, this is the opinion of our secretariat."
We take two steps at the same time!
First, we will upgrade a portion of our navy.
Then we also need to take some military action.
We can send some naval forces to the Central Sea Islands first.
Since the enemy came from the islands in the Middle East this time.
There must be a base in the South China Sea islands!
"We can take down these bases first!" said Secretary Barbara.
Hearing this statement...
Several people in the military nodded in agreement.
Everyone else looked towards Zhao Chen, waiting for his instructions.
