I, the super rich crown prince, will build the richest country

"Military spending has decreased."

After Li Tianlin finished talking about this year's fiscal expenditure, Xiao Yunhai spoke.

All eyes in the conference room looked over.

Xiao Yunhai said calmly: "Everyone knows how great the benefits of oil are. In recent years, the Philippines has been in constant conflict with us. There have been many conflicts around Palawan Island and our mainland, which they claim belong to them. Now that oil has been discovered in Jeddah Bay, this conflict will only intensify. Maybe a war will break out one day.

So in recent years, we need to strengthen the modernization of the army.

I don't think 10.5 billion Han yuan in military spending is enough.

In the current situation, it is necessary to increase spending to 15 billion Han yuan.

In addition to daily military spending, strengthening the navy and army is the top priority at the moment."

Strengthening the navy is mainly to deal with the Philippines.

Although the Philippines is not strong in military strength, it is a populous country with nearly 100 million people.

The United States has long-term support behind it.

Strengthening the army is mainly to deal with local conflicts.

New Han is located in Kalimantan Island (Sabah State and the northern part of East Kalimantan Province in Java), and borders three countries, Brunei, Malaysia and Java.

Brunei is a small country with a population of only 400,000. Although it is rich and rich in oil, its population and territory determine that its threat to New Han is almost zero, and the two countries also have a marriage relationship.

Malaysia, when New Han became independent in Sabah, it was obstructed by Malaysia. The relationship has not been good or bad in recent years, and the probability of a war is relatively low.

Moreover, Malaysia's national strength is not as good as Java, and the core of its development is in West Malaysia, so it is not as aggressive as Java.

The conflict with Java is very simple. When New Han became independent, Java relied on its military advantage to launch a war of aggression.

Fortunately, New Han had the support of the Commonwealth countries led by Britain at that time, so it was able to repel Java and seize the river valley alluvial plains such as Tarakan, Malinao, and Salimbatu in the northern part of East Kalimantan Province, Java.

Since then, the two sides have been at odds with each other.

The two sides have had conflicts many times.

Basically, 70% of New Han’s army is deployed in the border area with Java.

Now that a large amount of oil has been discovered, worth hundreds of billions or even trillions of dollars, the possibility of Java launching an aggressive war has increased a lot.

Everyone is not stupid, and they immediately understand the worries in Xiao Yunhai’s words.

And it is very likely to come true.

Even Ike, which claims to be the fourth most powerful country in the world, was invaded by other countries because of oil.

The new Han national strength and military strength are far inferior to those of the original Yik Kingdom.

"The Crown Prince is right. The military expenditure will be raised to 15 billion Han Yuan. No, it will be raised to 20 billion Han Yuan. The royal family will provide 5 billion Han Yuan to support the army's construction."

Xiao Hongjing said with a serious face.

Everyone heard that the military expenditure was increased to 20 billion Han Yuan.Yuan, they were all shocked, but then they calmed down a lot after hearing that the royal family would take out 5 billion Han yuan to support the army.

It is not uncommon for the royal family to use money to support the army.

Before this, there were several times when the royal family used money to support the army.

The reason why Xiao Hongjing proposed to use 5 billion Han yuan to support the army was that he was stimulated by Xiao Yunhai's words. If a war really broke out, it would be fine if they won, but if they lost, the Xiao family's rule would most likely be overthrown, and then the new Han might become a republic.

Because of these concerns, he believed it was necessary to use money to support the army.

As long as the army is strong, the probability of the Xiao family being overthrown is very low.

After all, the royal family and the army are in the same boat.

The military expenditure of 20 billion Han yuan, converted into US dollars at the current exchange rate, is about more than 6 billion US dollars.

In some countries, this military expenditure is not much.

But for a small country like Xinhan, this military expenditure is already very high.

In response to the 20 billion Han yuan military expenditure, Xiao Yunhai proposed to buy warships from Longguo.

Among the three armed forces, the navy is the weakest.

The main warships are three thousand-ton frigates, which were bought in the 1980s and are older than Xiao Yunhai.

Xinhan also has thousands of islands.

Now that the conflict with the Philippines is imminent, the navy must be strengthened.

At least 3-5 missile frigates or destroyers must be built.

And he has already decided who to buy them from.

Longguo.

It must be Longguo.

Even if foreign Aegis ships are willing to sell, they will cost at least 1 billion US dollars.

Only by looking for Longguo can we buy high-quality and low-priced weapons with the least money.

After the meeting.

Xiao Yunhai found his father.

"Dad, let me take care of the military weapons procurement."

"You?" Xiao Hongjing was surprised and said with a smile, "Do you know about this?"

Xiao Yunhai said, "I studied in Longguo for a few years. If I go to Longguo to buy weapons, no one in Xinhan knows better than me."

Xiao Yunhai has this confidence.

After all, he is a reborn person.

He knows a lot of weapons in Longguo that have not been exposed.

Xiao Hongjing thought for a moment, and considering his son's achievements in business, he nodded and agreed, "Since you are willing to take this task, I will give it to you. In a few days, I will issue a document to appoint you as the director of the Military Equipment Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense, responsible for the introduction of military equipment."

Appointing Xiao Yunhai as the director of the Military Equipment Bureau also means that Xiao Yunhai, the successor, will start to intervene in military affairs.

After a long time, I have more contact with the army. After Xiao Yunhai takes the throne, there will be a smooth transition.

Xiao Yunhai didn't think so much. He just didn't want to waste military funds.

As for the control of the army, with the system, he will clean it up sooner or later and replace it with his own people.

Compared to those who swore allegiance, he trusted the loyalty of the dead soldiers more.

Three days later.

The official website of the Ministry of National Defense disclosed a piece of news.

The content is that Xiao Yunhai is appointed as the director of the Military Equipment Bureau and is awarded the rank of major general.

The news did not cause heated discussions.

Let alone being the director of the Equipment Bureau, even if he is the Minister of Defense, the people will think it is normal.

He is the crown prince, the future king, what is surprising?

Besides, the people still like this crown prince very much. After all, he gave 10 billion Hanyuan to the poor people right after he came up.

How can the grassroots people not like this crown prince who cares about people's livelihood?
