Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

"Boss Chu, what do you think of choosing this place for the exercise?"

Zhang Guojin looked at Master Chu with a smile, feeling proud in his heart: "This is a precious land, surrounded by the sea, and separated from where I stand by a strait, less than 300 kilometers away, the army can set out in the morning and arrive in the evening. With your character, Master Chu, you will not agree!

"This is indeed a good place to train troops. Let's practice more now, and maybe we can win the battle in one fell swoop with just one order in the future."

Young Master Chu pondered for a moment and nodded.

It is undeniable that the rehearsal venue chosen by Zhang Guojin and Yan Jinsheng was very suitable for his temperament.

"Right, I told you that you would agree."

Zhang Guojin said happily: "Boss Chu, you should still remember that when we had a meeting, you proposed a plan for a round-the-island exercise.

The Eagle Sauce gave in too quickly, and we haven't even started yet... As long as you have no objection, how about we start tomorrow?"

"Of course I have no objection. Commander Yan can just give the order directly."

Young Master Chu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Mr. Yan.

"If you agree, it's half done."

Yan Jinsheng's eyebrows lit up with joy, and he said with a smile, "There is still half left, and you are also needed to take action."

"Oh why?"

There was a hint of doubt in Mr. Chu's words.

"Now that the combined fleet has retreated, our exercise mission should be complete. If we want to continue the exercise, we need to apply to the capital."

Yan Jinsheng saw that the groundwork was almost done, and began to talk about his and Zhang Guojin's plan: "So, I have to trouble you to go back to the capital and tell our godfather about our suggestions. I hope he will agree to give us about one more week so that we can practice the island closure plan."

"So you guys have been talking for so long just to ask me to do this?"

Young Master Chu rolled his eyes speechlessly: "That's no problem, I'll fly back to the capital immediately to report to my godfather."

Hearing Chu Yuchen being so easy to talk to, Yan Jinsheng and Zhang Guojin breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Young Master Chu can accomplish this kind of thing. The two of them know their own limitations. Even if the three people in the conference room were added together, they probably wouldn't have as much weight as Young Master Chu in the godfather's heart.

"Boss Chu, thank you for your hard work on this matter."

Yan Jinsheng and Zhang Guojin stood up and saluted Young Master Chu.

Young Master Chu returned a resounding military salute, and then said solemnly: "Ladies and gentlemen, let's split up and act separately. I will return to Beijing immediately. You'd better get ready. Once Godfather agrees to our request, we can act immediately."

"Please rest assured, Mr. Chu, we will do our best to ensure that all preparations are in place."

Yan Jingsheng answered firmly.

"Okay, I'll leave now."

Young Master Chu straightened his military uniform and prepared to leave the meeting room.

"Boss Chu, have a safe trip."

Zhang Guojin and the other two followed Young Master Chu and saw him out.

……

Four hours later, Young Master Chu arrived in the capital. Without any rest, he immediately rushed to his godfather's office.

"Boss Chu, please come in!"

The staff member in Zhongshan suit pushed open the door of the office and spoke to him politely and courteously.

Young Master Chu took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then followed the staff into the office.

Inside the room, godfather was sitting behind a large desk with a mountain of documents in front of him.

His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if he could see through everything.

Young Master Chu walked to the desk, saluted respectfully, and then said, "Godfather! I have something important to report to you."

Godfather raised his head and looked at Master Chu carefully. A gentle light flashed in his eyes, but it was soon replaced by seriousness. He frowned and asked, "What's going on? Is there any change in the military exercise?"

Young Master Chu quickly replied, “Yes!”

"Sit down and talk!"

Godfather pointed at the sofa with a kind attitude.

He then instructed his secretary: "Pour Yuchen a cup of tea."

Young Master Chu sat upright on the sofa, took the teacup handed to him by the staff with both hands, and gently placed it on the coffee table.

When the door was closed and only Young Master Chu and his godfather were left in the room, Young Master Chu slowly spoke:

“It’s only been three days since the start of this exercise. It has not achieved the results we expected.

The Combined Fleet withdrew too quickly and many of our plans were not implemented in time.

I discussed with Commander Yan and Commander Zhang, and we believe that we should continue the exercise, especially the island-circling exercise, which is very important for improving our military's combat capability and demonstrating our determination to the outside world."

Godfather listened quietly, tapping his fingers on the table, as if weighing the pros and cons.

"I understand your thoughts, but you also need to be aware that the international situation is complex and ever-changing, and we cannot only consider military factors."

After Godfather pondered for a while, he raised his head, his eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he deliberately emphasized his tone:

"We have to consider the political, economic and diplomatic impacts."

Young Master Chu nodded, his expression solemn: "It is precisely because of these considerations that we feel it is necessary to continue the exercise."

"First, we believe that the retreat of the Eagle Sauce will definitely deal a huge blow to the mentality of some people on the island who want to rely on foreign powers to gain respect."

Young Master Chu raised his second finger: "Secondly, this exercise is also another signal we send to the outside world. We have the ability and strength to guarantee that we can take back the big island at any time... as long as we are willing."

"What you said makes sense. To fight against foreign enemies, we must first stabilize the country!"

Godfather nodded slightly, as if he was moved by what Master Chu said, and said in a faint tone: "It's been decades, some things should be resolved... We can't just talk about it, we must also keep up with the action.

Draw up a timetable and strive to complete unification within ten years.”

When Young Master Chu heard what his godfather said, he instantly became full of energy.

Godfather's words meant that Daxia's determination and will for unification were no longer just words, but real preparations had begun.

Ten years. This is what Godfather asked the military to do.

Young Master Chu immediately stood up, saluted solemnly, and said in a loud voice: "Godfather, on behalf of all officers and soldiers, I promise that we will go all out, fulfill our mission, and contribute all our strength to the great cause of national reunification."

"Okay, with your words, I feel relieved."

Godfather looked at Mr. Chu, his eyes showing admiration and trust, he stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "Go, I'll give you another week."

Young Master Chu nodded firmly: "Please rest assured, godfather, we will definitely live up to your trust."

"Go."

Godfather waved his hand, indicating that Young Master Chu could leave.

Chu Da saluted again and left the office.
