The Legend of Dragon and Phoenix of Douluo

"Do you know what you are talking about? This is sowing discord within our military, which is a serious crime!"

Dong Zian's eyes were sharp, his voice was deep, and the aura he had honed on the battlefield was full of oppression.

Linyi released his aura and blocked Dong Zian's aura. His eyes narrowed. If he had been alone, he would have already taken action at this time.

Gu Yuena seemed not to feel Dong Zian's momentum and said calmly: "Whether I am stating the facts or trying to sow relations, General Dong should know clearly."

"General Dong, don't you think there is something wrong with this approach of the federal military?"

"The military expenditures given to you by the military department cannot allow you to develop vigorously. If things continue like this, how can you surpass Army Group Center and the Poseidon Army?"

"I'll tell you what you don't want to hear. Unless something unexpected happens, the Western Legion will not be able to surpass them in the next hundred or thousand years."

The most important thing for the development of the army is military expenditure. Without enough military expenditure to maintain the needs of the army and purchase sophisticated equipment, it will be difficult for an army to develop.

This is no longer the past, the era when soldiers could build a strong army as long as they were brave enough.

Whether it is well-equipped or not directly determines the combat effectiveness of this army. Without soul guidance 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 true.

The gap in military expenditure will indeed make it difficult for the Western Army to surpass Army Group Center and the Poseidon Army.

Seeing that Dong Zian was deep 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 just monetary sponsorship. We can sponsor 20 billion federal coins to the Western Legion every year."

"After the money is handed over to the Western Legion, it is up to you to decide how to use it. The Dragon and Phoenix Palace will not interfere in the slightest."

"How much did you say, 20 billion?" Dong Zian's eyelids twitched. Hearing this number, even given his status, he was shocked.

The other party spoke too calmly, as if 20 billion was insignificant to Dragon Phoenix Palace.

The 15 billion he used to buy the elixirs, but he and his father-in-law spent a lot of effort to get enough.

He had finally managed to collect so much, but as soon as the other party opened his mouth, he exceeded this number. How could he not be surprised?

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, this Dragon Phoenix Palace is really rich and powerful, and can actually spend 20 billion at will.

"General Dong, don't you think it's enough? Can we add more, 30 billion per year?" Gu Yuena said with a smile.

She naturally saw that Dong Zian didn't think it was too little, but thought it was too much. She said this just to tease him.

"No, if you really want sponsorship, 20 billion is enough," Dong Zian waved his hand.

He didn't agree directly, but he had some thoughts in his mind. If he could really get this sponsorship, his idea of ​​strengthening the army would no longer be a fantasy.

"You should tell me the purpose of Dragon Phoenix Palace's sponsorship. If you say it's free sponsorship for the sake of alumni, I won't believe it."

Dong Zian said seriously that he, Gu Yuena, and Yunze were indeed alumni, but they were not close enough to provide free sponsorship.

He also came from the Sun and Moon Royal Academy, and was two years older than Dean Xu Lin, who even called him "senior brother" when he saw him.

"People of the Ming Dynasty don't tell secret stories. Our Dragon and Phoenix Palace sponsors the Western Legion for some reason," Gu Yuena said bluntly.

When talking to an admiral like Dong Zian, it is much better to be straightforward than to talk in roundabout ways.

"We hope that General Dong and the Western Army will support us in future federal elections."

It is definitely impossible to directly ask the entire Western Legion 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 were unrealistic, they did not propose them and only hoped to spend money to buy their political support.

"Federal election..." Dong Zian was slightly surprised and looked deeply at Yunze and the others.

"I didn't expect Dragon Phoenix Palace to be interested in politics?"

"Originally we didn't want to join politics, but after Shrek slandered us, we realized the importance of joining politics."

"Shrek was able to slander and get government departments to help deal with the Dragon Phoenix Palace before because of their extraordinary status in the parliament."

"With their political power, they almost caused the Dragon Phoenix Palace to close down, and they were even almost slandered as a dark force in the Federation."

"If our Dragon Phoenix Palace could have a say in the Federal Parliament, how could we be so miserable by them?" Gu Yuena's tone was full of helplessness.

Dong Zian still agrees with Gu Yuena's statement. If the Dragon Phoenix Palace has a certain political voice, it will not be manipulated by Shrek.

"We join politics to better protect ourselves. We don't want Shrek's slander to happen again."

"General Dong, you should be able to understand what we are doing," Gu Yuena asked, her expression in place, looking helpless.

"Understood" Dong Zian said, not in a perfunctory manner, but in genuine understanding.

This is not the first time that they have done this. Many soul master forces have this idea and will participate in the federal election and want to occupy a seat in the parliament.

The government encourages the spirit master forces to run for parliament, as this can strengthen the relationship between the government and the spirit master forces.

"If you want to win the federal election and win a seat in the parliament, you need supporters, so we thought of you, General Dong."

"We sponsor the Western Legion, and you support us in the federal election. Both parties will get what they need and cooperate for a win-win situation. How about that?" Gu Yuena said.

After hearing the reasons given by Gu Yuena, Dong Zian was even more moved, but still did not make an immediate decision.

This is no small matter. He still needs to understand the Dragon Phoenix Palace carefully and cannot just make promises to support them casually.

"Let me think about it," Dong Zian said.

"Okay." Gu Yuena nodded. The other party said that it would be enough to consider it, which meant that the plan to sponsor the Western Legion was half successful.

Before leaving, Dong Zian also specifically asked whether the Dragon Phoenix Palace would really not interfere with the use of sponsorship funds.

Regarding this question, Gu Yuena answered it seriously and made a guarantee, promising never to interfere.

"The Southern Army and the Western Army should be able to win over the Western Army if they work harder. Now the only thing left is the Northern Army and the Northern Navy Army."

"The Northern Legion shouldn't be a big problem. That's the Northern Marine Corps..." Gu Yuena said to Yunze.

Speaking of the Beihai Regiment, she thought of the information she learned from Xu Lin.

The officers inside are basically from the Sun and Moon Royal Academy, but their backgrounds are complex and involved, making it difficult to win them over.

20 monthly passes = one additional chapter. Three hundred recommendation votes = an additional chapter. In total, a reward of more than 10,000 platform coins = an additional chapter, and a subscription of more than 5,000 = an additional chapter.
