Chapter 1087 Trial
Chapter 1087 Trial
Just as Zhao Yunting and Li Mo'er were flying to Beijing, a group of government officials and military officers were holding a hearing in a court in Tokyo, Japan.
A government official stated, "After careful investigation, it has been determined that due to your negligence, Hachijiro Ito, our great Japanese Empire has suffered enormous property losses and personnel losses. Therefore, the following decision has been made."
"(1) Ito Hachijiro was too arrogant, ignored advice, and acted willfully. He is now removed from his position as the highest commander of the Self-Defense Forces. (2) The Supreme Court of Japan ruled that Ito Hachijiro's wrong decision resulted in the sacrifice of more than 8,870 soldiers, the loss of more than 30 cruisers, the destruction of military bases, and the destruction of research data. Therefore, Ito Hachijiro is sentenced to life imprisonment without parole!"
Ito Hachijiro slumped into a chair, his face pale. He was filled with remorse. Why had he provoked Forget-Worry Island and the cultivators? Now he was truly doomed!
In the Philippines, at a military court, Navy Commander Hernandez sat dejectedly in the dock, the handcuffs on his wrists gleaming silver.
The judge on the platform declared: "Hernandez, due to your decision, our navy's only warships, which were purchased at a high price, and dozens of fishing boats have been lost, causing huge economic and personnel losses to the country and individuals. The judgment is as follows."
Hernandez was sentenced to twenty years in prison and ordered to compensate all the fishermen for their fishing boats.
Inside the newly built temporary naval headquarters in the Ryukyu Islands of Japan, the newly appointed Sasaki Marinaka was all smiles.
His trusted subordinate, Yuukimaru Nakataka, who was also Sasakimaru Nichinaka's cousin, fawned over him, saying, "General, only you are the right person to be the supreme commander. I believe that under your leadership, the Japanese Navy will surely grow stronger and stronger, becoming the most powerful navy in the history of Japan."
Sasaki Maru Nichinaka was in a good mood after being photographed. If it weren't for Ito Hachijiro's recklessness in provoking the cultivators, how could he have had the opportunity to rise to power?
However, he had just taken office, and Japan's finances had been strained for the past two years. No matter how ambitious he was, he was like a skilled cook without ingredients.
Sasaka Maru Nijūnaka muttered, "This is troublesome. Without money, we can't buy more warships. How can we get the money?"
Yugao Maru Nakatō thought for a moment and said, "General, according to the latest news, that cultivator appeared on the South China Sea islands and caused great damage to the Philippines a couple of days ago."
"I think we could take advantage of her being in the South China Sea to surround Forget-Worry Island and plunder its riches."
Sasaki Maru Nijiinaka kicked Yuuka Maru Nijiinaka a long way away, cursing, "You idiot! Do you have a problem with me being the highest-ranking officer? Are you trying to trick me? You even want to incite me to provoke Forget-Worry Island? Are you blind? Do you think I'm stupid? I'd rather rob Pearl Island than provoke Forget-Worry Island! Get the hell out of here!"
In China, as dusk settled, fighter jets had replaced Osprey transport planes. Li Mo'er sat in the co-pilot's seat, her mind sweeping over the villages below, feeling quite relaxed.
Zhao Yunting said to her, "Mo'er, we've arrived in Lu Province now, and we'll be home in half an hour."
The military camp ahead looked very familiar to Li Mo'er; oh, it was a radar station.
She chuckled, having not teased the battalion commander in a long time. As the fighter jets flew over the radar station, she had a thought, and two tons of rice, two tons of flour, two tons of fruit, two tons of vegetables, and four prepared pigs fell from a height of over a hundred meters into the radar station's courtyard.
Inside the radar station battalion commander's office, the battalion commander stared blankly into space. Due to the domestic food shortage, the only food recently allocated to him was corn and sorghum.
These days, he's having trouble even going to the toilet because of all the food he's eating. He really misses that fighter jet.
He sighed deeply and drank a glass of cold water. Just as he was about to get up to take a look around, his ears twitched, and he heard a familiar voice, a voice etched into his very bones.
He rushed out of the room and shouted, "Everyone back inside! No one is allowed in the yard!"
He had to be prepared. Regardless of whether it was Commander Li or not, it wouldn't be good if the supplies dropped from the airdrop hit someone!
