The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 724
Inside the Xiangjiang Xinghua Club, looking at the invitation letter on the table, Mr. Liao felt a headache. According to his and others' thinking, this conflict will take a year or a half, not to mention three to five or eight years.

I didn't expect it to end so quickly. In less than a month, the armed conflict was declared over. The follow-up issue of the Falkland Islands is more on the negotiating table.

But now that the Bryan government has held a celebration reception with Yu Wei after the great victory, and even sent invitation letters to himself and Li Jushen, it is more likely to be a demonstration.

Moreover, England's big victory this time will inevitably fuel the ambitions of the upper echelons of England and the Bryan government, and the follow-up work may be even more difficult.

……

At night, the lights of Xiangjiang are bright, especially in the central area of ​​Central. Outside the Xinhui Hotel, there are even reporters gathering this evening.

This time, the Bryan government did not choose the Peninsula Hotel as usual, but chose the Shine Wing Hotel in Central.

With the gradual arrival of the guests, celebrities and rich businessmen gathered in the banquet hall of Xinhui Hotel for a while, and they exchanged cups and cups.

Brian delivered a speech to the reception and welcomed the guests.

"Entrusted by the Queen and the Prime Minister, here, I will first drink a glass of wine to Ms. Li Chen Yulian, Earl of Donghua, and thank the defense forces of the Donghua Territory for their great contribution to this victory."

Bryan's words made the whole meeting place silent. Li Jianhui was wondering why Bryan also sent an invitation letter to Chen Yulian, and it turned out that he was waiting here.

This time, the defense forces of the Donghua Territory really didn’t make any contribution. The main reason for Yinglun’s quick victory was the fighter planes on the aircraft carrier and the bombers of the Air Force. The four warships in the Donghua Territory were just soy sauce.

The twelve Mirage 2000s never went there at all, and the mixed army regiment was also only training in England, and was not arranged to fight at all.

Because of the end of the conflict, in the evening, Chen Yulian had already received a call from the Queen, negotiating that twelve Mirage 2000s would temporarily station at Port Stanley Airport on the main island of the Falkland Islands. Leave the Falkland Islands.

However, Chen Yulian clearly rejected this, and also asked the four warships from the Donghua Territory to return to the British mainland to continue training on the grounds that the conflict was over.

Originally, Li Jianhui thought that this matter was over like this, but he didn't expect Brian to come out like this, obviously to provoke the relationship between the Li family and even the Donghua Society and the North.

It's just that the matter is approaching, and Chen Yulian also knows that she can't escape, and she can only face it herself at this time. Li Jianhui can't respond for her. After all, she is the governor of Donghua Territory and the head of the defense department of Donghua Territory.

"Mr. Brian, your words really make me a little ashamed. The victory this time is all due to the strength of the local military and the bravery of the soldiers.

The two frigates and two destroyers in the Donghua Territory are more like an ocean-going training session, without any achievements to speak of, how can they bear your toast? "

Brian actually didn't care how Chen Yulian responded, he just needed to let those present know Chen Yulian's identity, and that Donghua Territory also had troops participating this time.

If we say that the biggest gap between the Xinjian Department and even the Donghua Society and the north is undoubtedly the Donghua Territory.

It is not enough for Donghua Society to just shift the focus of the industry. They also need to continue to deepen the estrangement between the two sides. It would be best if the two sides can fall out.

Affected by this conflict, the upper echelons of England prepared to continue to loosen the ties to the Donghua territory and guide Li Jianhui to add more troops, especially the air force and navy.

As long as Li Jianhui needs it, the EC's active combat aircraft and warships other than aircraft carriers and submarines can be purchased.

"The Earl of Donghua is too modest. The Queen has already made strict arrangements with the Prime Minister. In this conflict, among our dozen overseas territories, only Donghua Territory has sent troops to assist. This is the greatest contribution.

In order to thank Donghua Territory for its contribution to the country, a number of patriotic enterprises, mainly Rose Financial Holding Group, Grosvenor Group, and Luofu Group, jointly invested and ordered a Duke-class Type 22 frigate and a Type 42 frigate. Destroyer, to donate to Donghua Territory to strengthen the defense force of Donghua Territory.

Moreover, the Queen personally named these two warships, the frigate was named Shutong Ship, and the destroyer was named Zhipeng Ship, which is enough to show the Queen's importance and gratitude to Earl Donghua. "

Li Jianhui really hasn't received any news about this matter, and of course he doesn't think Brian is talking nonsense. It is estimated that Yinglun is still keeping this matter a secret, or they are just planning for this meeting.

The price of the two warships is nothing to these companies, it can even be said to be a drizzle, and it can be regarded as a charity.

But for Li Jianhui, it is expensive. With two warships, he needs to be equipped with multifunctional helicopters and missiles.

These are nothing, and the later training and maintenance are even more gold-swallowing beasts. Not only will these two warships not bring any benefits to Donghua Territory, but they will be a burden.

Therefore, under Li Jianhui's signal, Chen Yulian directly stated that compared with the Donghua Territory, the British Royal Navy needs new warships to enter the ranks.

After thanking the Queen and the Rose Financial Holding Group and other companies, he said that he would ask these companies to donate them to the Royal Navy. With local protection, the Donghua Territory, an overseas territory, does not need too much military power.

"Since Earl Donghua is unwilling to accept the kindness of these patriotic companies, I can only pass your opinion back to the mainland, but I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of these patriotic companies."

Maybe it felt almost the same, Brian also started to change the subject, and stopped talking about Donghua Territory.

It just affected the atmosphere of the reception after all, but under the seemingly lively reception, there was already an undercurrent.

What other parties were thinking was unclear, but Mr. Liao and Li Jushen were extremely restless in their hearts. Even though they had known that Donghua Territory had sent warships to follow them, they still couldn't face it calmly at this reception.

Only then did they realize that Li Chen Yulian, who had lived in Xiangjiang for a long time, was not only the wife of Li Jianhui, but also the governor of England, the honorable Earl of Donghua.

And this person has already become a resident of the British Offshore Territory, holding British nationality, and England is Li Chen Yulian's country.

While the two were thinking about their lives, Brian came to them with a glass of wine.

"I'm very glad that you two are able to attend this celebration reception. To be honest, I thought that you two would not come to attend."

Mr. Liao and Li Jushen naturally knew what Brian meant. To the complacent Brian, Mr. Liao responded:

"Since we have received the invitation letter, we will not be rude, and the end of the conflict is a great blessing for us all over the world. World peace should be the common aspiration of all human beings around the world. The end of armed conflict and the resolution through political negotiations are indeed worthy of celebration."

Faced with Mr. Liao's sneaky change of concept, Brian didn't say much, but chatted with him about the development of Donghua Territory in the past two years and the importance of Donghua Territory to England.

It is even mentioned that after the establishment of the Donghua Territory is complete, the British military will send fighter planes and warships there, and be under the joint jurisdiction of the Donghua Territory and the mainland to protect British interests in the Western Indian Ocean, West Asia, South Asia, and East Africa.

"Mr. Bryan, Donghua Territory is your overseas territory, what you want to do has nothing to do with us, and what you said today is not afraid of leaking secrets and causing variables?
You must know that although Ms. Li Chen Yulian is the apparent controller of the Donghua Territory, the actual control is in the hands of Mr. Li Jianhui. He is not a puppet in your hands. I am afraid that some of your ideas will be difficult to realize. "
