Chapter 240 Sponsoring the Western Legion, 2 million
Chapter 240 Sponsoring the Western Legion, 200 million
"Do you know what you're talking about? This is sowing discord within our military. It's a felony!"
Dong Zian's eyes were sharp, his voice was low, and the aura honed in the battlefield was full of oppression.
Lin Yi released his own aura, blocked Dong Zian's aura, and squinted his eyes. If he was alone, he would have already made a move.
Gu Yuena acted as if she didn't feel Dong Zian's aura, and said lightly: "Whether I'm stating the facts or trying to sow discord, General Dong should be clear in his heart."
"Don't you think there is something wrong with the Federal Army's approach, General Dong?"
"The military expenditures given to you by the military department can't allow you to develop vigorously. If things go on like this, why do you surpass the Central Army and the Sea God Legion?"
"To tell you something you don't like to hear, unless something unexpected happens, otherwise, the Western Legion will not be able to surpass them in the next hundred or thousand years."
The most important thing in the development of the army is the military expenditure. Without enough military expenditure to maintain the needs of the army and purchase sophisticated equipment, it is difficult to develop an army.
This is no longer the era in which a strong army could be built as long as the soldiers were brave enough.
Whether the equipment is well-equipped or not directly determines the combat effectiveness of this army. Without soul guide equipment, the army is like a toothless tiger, lacking in lethality.
Dong Zian wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to say it, because what the other party said was the truth.
The gap in military expenditure will indeed make it difficult for the Western Legion to surpass the Central Army and the Sea God Legion.
Seeing that Dong Zian was lost in thought, Gu Yuena stopped talking and gave him time to think.
After a few minutes of silence, Dong Zian asked: "How do you want to sponsor the Western Legion, and what do you want to get from us?"
Gu Yuena smiled slightly and said: "It's pure money sponsorship, we can sponsor 200 billion federal coins to the Western Legion every year"
"After the money is handed over to the Western Legion, how to use it is up to you, and the Dragon Phoenix Palace will not interfere in the slightest."
"How much did you say, 200 billion?" Dong Zian's eyelids twitched. When he heard the number, he was startled even in his position.
The other party said it too calmly, as if 200 billion is insignificant to Dragon Phoenix Palace.
The 150 billion he used to buy the elixir, but he and his father-in-law spent a lot of effort to get it together.
How could he not be surprised that he managed to gather so much, and the other party exceeded this number as soon as he opened his mouth?
I can't help but sigh in my heart, this Dragon and Phoenix Palace is really rich and powerful, and can take out 200 billion at will.
"General Dong thinks it's not enough? Can we add more, 300 billion a year?" Gu Yuena said with a smile.
She naturally saw that Dong Zian didn't think it was too little, but that it was too much, so she said it to tease him.
"No, if you really want to sponsor, 200 billion is enough," Dong Zian waved his hands.
He didn't directly agree, but his heart was moved. If he could really get this sponsorship, his idea of strengthening the army would not be a fantasy.
"You still talk about the purpose of Dragon Phoenix Hall's sponsorship. If you say it's free sponsorship for the sake of alumni, I don't believe it."
Dong Zian said seriously, he and Gu Yuena, Yunze are indeed alumni, but they are not close friends, not to the point of free sponsorship.
He is also from the Sun Moon Royal Academy, two years older than the dean Xu Lin, and the latter even calls him senior brother when he sees him.
"Ming people don't say dark words, our Dragon Phoenix Palace sponsors the Western Legion indeed has a purpose," Gu Yuena said bluntly.
Talking with generals like Dong Zian, it's much better to be straightforward than to talk around the corner.
"We hope that General Dong and the Western Legion will support us in future federal elections"
It is definitely impossible to directly ask the entire western army to work for the Dragon and Phoenix Palace, and it is also unrealistic to ask them to fight for the Dragon and Phoenix Palace.
Knowing that these are unrealistic, they did not raise them, only hoping to spend money to buy their political support.
"Federal election..." Dong Zian was slightly surprised, and took a deep look at Yunze and the others.
"I didn't expect Dragon Phoenix Palace to be interested in politics?"
"We didn't want to be in politics at first, but after Shrek slandered us, we realized the importance of being in politics."
"Before Shrek was able to slander and get government departments to help deal with Dragon and Phoenix Hall, it was because of their extraordinary status in the council"
"Relying on their political strength, they almost closed down the Dragon Phoenix Palace, and were even almost slandered as the dark forces of the Federation."
"If our Dragon and Phoenix Palace can speak in the federal parliament, how can we be made so miserable by them?" Gu Yuena's tone was full of helplessness.
Dong Zian still agrees with Gu Yuena's statement. If Dragon Phoenix Palace has a certain political discourse power, it will not be played by Shrek.
"We entered politics to better protect ourselves, and we don't want Shrek's slander to happen again."
"General Dong, you should be able to understand our approach." Gu Yuena asked, her expression was in place, and she looked helpless.
"Understand" Dong Zian said, not perfunctory, but genuine understanding.
Their approach is not the first case, many soul master forces have their idea, they will participate in the federal election, and want to occupy a seat in the parliament.
It is more advocated by the government to let the soul master forces run for parliamentarians, so as to strengthen the connection between the government and the soul master forces.
"If you want to win the federal election and get a seat in the parliament, you need supporters, so we thought of you, General Dong."
"We sponsored the Western Legion, and you supported us in the federal election. Both sides get what they need, and win-win cooperation, how about it?" Gu Yuena said.
After hearing the reason given by Gu Yuena, Dong Zian was even more moved, but he still didn't make a decision immediately.
This is not a trivial matter, he still needs to understand the Dragon and Phoenix Palace carefully, and he cannot just give a promise to support them.
"Let me think about it," Dong Zian said.
"Yes" Gu Yuena nodded, and the other party said that it is enough to think about it, which means that the plan to sponsor the Western Legion has been half successful.
Before leaving, Dong Zian also specifically asked whether the Dragon and Phoenix Hall really would not interfere with the use of sponsorship funds.
For this question, Gu Yuena answered seriously and made a promise that she would never interfere.
"The Southern Legion and the Western Legion should be able to win over if they spend a little more effort. Now the Northern Legion and the Beihai Legion are the only ones left."
"The Northern Legion shouldn't be a big problem, it's the Beihai Army..." Gu Yuena said to Yun Ze.
Speaking of the Beihai Regiment, she thought of the information she had learned from Xu Lin.
The officers in it are basically from the Sun and Moon Royal Academy, but their backgrounds are complex and involve a lot, so it is difficult to win them over.
