Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

"I have to admit, I made a mistake in this matter. I was too conservative at the time. If I had listened to you, we would have already had more than a dozen routes in Southeast Asia."

Dong Yueyan was not surprised by Li Shaoyi's words. If she had heard it for the first time, she would definitely feel it was incredible.

There is not much in Jinling except the number of officials. However, no matter how many officials there are, no one will admit his mistakes in front of others, especially someone in Li Shaoyi's position, who is more careful about his reputation. Even if he makes a mistake, someone else will take the responsibility.

But that's how Li Shaoyi does things. Right is right, wrong is wrong, and there's nothing to be embarrassed about admitting. The entire 72nd Army also has this kind of atmosphere.

Even our commander can admit his mistakes, so how can we have more face than him? Moreover, the commander said that it is better to correct mistakes than to deny them.

"It's not too late now. In fact, all the preparations for expanding routes are ready, but you haven't given the go-ahead, so I haven't asked them to do it. According to my estimation, if you give the go-ahead, we can open half of the cities in Southeast Asia that have airports in an instant."

Dong Yueyan said confidently that for this girl, the airline was like her own child. She had seen it grow up from childhood to adulthood, and she felt a strong sense of satisfaction with every step of development. Making money was secondary.

Of course, Dong Yueyan was the only one who thought so. Madam and others might not think so. Those people were still thinking about making money. It was like a cash cow. The top management of Jinling was also very supportive, but Li Shaoyi was the major shareholder. When Li Shaoyi expressed his opposition, others could not say anything.

"Then hurry up. This time I'm heading to Southeast Asia, and I won't hide it from you. I'm going to acquire a naval base in Southeast Asia. Once the first step is successful, I'll use transport planes to send a group of pilots there. I've already ordered the planes from various European and American countries, and they'll be shipped directly to Southeast Asia. No matter how difficult it is, I'll get the pilots there."

Within the territory of Longguo, Li Shaoyi can rely on Li Qiankun. After all, his air force is well-developed and there is nothing he can't do.

But when they arrived in Southeast Asia, the Air Force was useless. Firstly, there was no airport, and secondly, there was no one familiar with the place. So they could only rely on Dong Yueyan. This was also one of the reasons why Li Shaoyi revealed his plan in full.

The intelligence department has never stopped investigating Ms. Dong.

So far, no signs of surrendering to the enemy or treason have been found. It is just a matter of making money for the rich. Li Shaoyi is not afraid of others making money, but he is afraid that these people have connections with the great powers. If this is the case, no matter how big the profit is, it must be cut off.

"what happened to you?"

After Li Shaoyi finished speaking, he found that Dong Yueyan was staring at him. Did he suddenly become handsome today?

"Are you serious? You want to acquire a naval base in Southeast Asia. Do you know the local conditions in Southeast Asia?"

Dong Yueyan was shaken by Li Shaoyi and finally woke up from her shock. What Li Shaoyi said was really too unbelievable. You haven't reached the peak in your country yet, and you are preparing to go to Southeast Asia, which is simply a powder keg.

"Of course I know the situation there, but wealth and honor come with risk. If we hadn't taken risks, how could we have developed so quickly? Think about it, how long has it been since our 72nd Army has built up such wealth? Which step didn't involve risk?"

Li Shaoyi said very proudly that he used to be a very humble person, but if he occasionally had a chance to brag about his attacks, and he would brag about it to a beautiful woman, Li Shaoyi would seize the opportunity, not to mention that what he said was the truth.

"But that's a completely different matter. Southeast Asia is too far away from us. The logistics alone are already a real problem. Even if you occupied Rakshasa territory, what good would that do? In the end, you still had to retreat to the border because you ran out of supplies if you went too deep. Southeast Asia is even more difficult."

Although Dong Yueyan is not a soldier, she has been exposed to military affairs over the years and is very familiar with some military matters. We do not have a strong team or a superior navy, so we really don't see any possibility of gaining a foothold in Southeast Asia.

If Li Shaoyi had not had a grudge with the Japanese Navy, some things might have been different. However, the hatred between Li Shaoyi and the Japanese Navy could not be described in a day and a night. If your fleet was left alone once, what would the Japanese Navy do?

"I have a solution, don't worry about it."

Building a giant warehouse is a top military secret. Even if Dong Yueyan is Li Shaoyi's ally in some aspects, he would never say this out loud.

The best way to keep a secret is not to tell it. No matter how trustworthy the person is, as long as you tell him, the secret is at risk of being leaked.

"I know what you're planning. Southeast Asia has a large population of overseas Chinese, and President Chen's meeting with you is no secret. Everyone in Jinling knows about it, too. But the problem is that those overseas Chinese have a hard time surviving in Southeast Asia, and they can't really offer you much help, especially with regard to weapons and equipment. Western colonists strictly control the weapons in the hands of the Chinese."

Dong Yueyan was also quite familiar with the situation in Southeast Asia. There were quite a few Chinese and overseas Chinese there, and they had a lot of money, but their armed forces were not very good.

Take the area controlled by the Windmill Kingdom for example. The armed forces of Chinese and overseas Chinese were strictly limited to the level of personal bodyguards. If they wanted to organize an armed guard team, the colonial authorities would immediately ban it.

However, the colonial authorities were relatively relaxed with the local indigenous people and did not manage them so strictly. This was because the Western colonists understood that once the Chinese had weapons in their hands, they would definitely fight for their own political status. But if the local indigenous people had weapons, they would not be able to accomplish much in the end because they were brainless. This was an inherent disadvantage.

"Let's each do our own thing. You don't have to worry about mine, and I won't worry about yours. Anyway, if you have time in the future, I'll take you on a vacation to the naval base in Southeast Asia. By the way, does opening this route cost money?"

When Li Shaoyi asked this question, Dong Yueyan's eyes had turned into looking at an idiot...
