Seven days later, the largest internal ergency eting since the establishnt of the Jade Island regi concluded in a solemn atmosphere.
The contents of this eting were classified as Jade Island’s top secret, known only to the dozen or so high-level managers who attended.
Shortly after the eting ended, a series of ergency actions were thodically implented within Jade Island, including important personnel transfers, organizational restructuring, and the establishnt of relevant systems.
However, even though these actions were discreet and not overly publicized, so observant individuals gradually noticed so anomalies as the actions progressed.
For example, the previously sowhat bloated Immigration Planning Bureau suddenly beca much more streamlined, and many equivalent high-level institutions, such as the Departnt of Holand Security and the General Administration of Customs, erged.
Everyone aware of this matter sensitively realized that Jade Island was likely undergoing institutional reform to address new external challenges!
While Jade Island was implenting a series of reform asures, Jiang Cheng, the current top leader, was not idle and was busy with another major event!
...
Octopus Island.
ters underwater, Future Ship Laboratory.
In a highly confidential office, more than a dozen researchers in white military uniforms sat in chairs, staring intently at the 3D projection screen in the conference room.
Displayed on the screen was a huge 3D model of a warship.
The entire warship had a spindle-shaped streamline, full of sci-fi elents, with decks loaded densely with various missile launch tubes, and the base of the ship was filled with advanced torpedo launching devices!
In short, this was a warship with powerful multi-functional firepower output capabilities.
At this mont, Jiang Cheng, with a solemn expression, was standing in front of the 3D projection, explaining sothing to the dozen researchers present.
As Jiang Cheng explained, the expressions on these senior researchers’ faces began to change noticeably, from initial confusion to a slight shock, and finally to expressions of excitent!
Clearly, what Jiang Cheng was discussing were advanced ideas they had never heard of before.
They learned from Jiang Cheng that the warship before them, although not large in tonnage, had multiple uses, including air defense, anti-submarine warfare, surface-to-surface and surface-to-ground combat, making it a pioneering super warship.
Its powerful comprehensive performance far exceeded the world’s strongest heavy battleships!
It represented the direction of future naval vessel developnt!
The currently acknowledged most powerful warships are battleships developed a long ti ago.
A battleship is a high-tonnage naval combat vessel primarily focused on large-caliber gun attacks and heavy armor protection, serving as the main battleship in today’s ocean warfare.
Currently, the research and developnt direction of battleships in various countries is moving towards larger tonnage and higher firepower.
However, Jiang Cheng knew that in the near future, with the gradual developnt of aircraft carriers and the advent of the missile era, these large, slow-moving "targets" known as battleships would inevitably be phased out!
The current internal and external situations ant that Jade Island had to develop its military strength, but the direction of developnt had to be clear and forward-thinking to avoid unnecessary setbacks.
With this consideration in mind, the concept of a destroyer, a multi-functional warship, surfaced in Jiang Cheng’s mind.
On Earth, destroyers are the most important warships of the current era. They are multi-purpose ships with missiles, torpedoes, and naval guns as their main weapons, possessing various combat capabilities, used for attacking submarines and surface ships, fleet air defense, escort, reconnaissance patrol alert, mine-laying, and striking shore targets, making them the most versatile and nurous among modern naval vessels.
In so aspects, they are sufficient to replace battleships and cruisers.
When Jiang Cheng shared this set of ideas with the scientists present, it naturally inspired them.
In the following ti, Jiang Cheng assigned specific research and developnt plans before hastily leaving the laboratory.
He had many other matters to attend to.
Leaving the Future Ship Laboratory, Jiang Cheng returned directly to his villa in Baisha Bay and quickly accessed the building system of the Island Tycoon app.
Imdiately, a variety of construction projects appeared before him.
Jiang Cheng’s fingers swiped to find the military facilities section.
To better protect Jade Island, during the previous internal etings, Jiang Cheng and other high-level figures had a series of discussions and ultimately decided to establish the Departnt of Holand Security as an organizational entity.
Underneath it, the most important subsidiary body— the Coast Guard was also established!
The Coast Guard could be considered the most significant outco of this eting, and the destroyers previously designed would soon beco the most powerful equipnt weapons of the Coast Guard.
As agreed upon during the eting, the primary responsibilities of the Coast Guard are law enforcent within Jade Island’s territorial waters and shipping lanes, mariti safety, and rescue of distressed vessels.
The establishnt of the Coast Guard was a decision Jiang Cheng reached after careful consideration.
Firstly, in na, the Coast Guard cannot be considered a full military organization, instead classified as a semi-military organization.
The reason for not directly establishing a naval fleet, a military organization, was to avoid provoking excessive reactions from neighboring powers.
Secondly, although the Coast Guard does not have the precise designation of a naval fleet, this does not an its military strength would thereby be diminished.
In other words, Jiang Cheng plans to use the title of the Coast Guard to develop his naval strength.
Nominally, the Coast Guard is for coastal protection, but in reality, it can still equip itself with advanced warships and vessels, capable of transforming into a formidable fleet when necessary!
This approach allows circumventing political targeting from other countries while covertly developing military strength.
Forming a combat-ready fleet is not a simple task; it requires continuous training and practical experience to ultimately take shape!
Therefore, this semi-military organization, the Coast Guard, can serve as a training ground for troops.
In the future, the warships produced by Jiang Cheng’s shipyard will be prioritized for the Coast Guard, allowing them to conduct hands-on training and eventually take shape.
One could say that the current Coast Guard is the prototype of Jade Island’s future formidable fleet!
