"Everyone, this is a budget meeting, not a quarrel. Please restrain yourself."
Although Carlo spoke softly, the weight of his words made the venue immediately quiet.
Carlo waited until the venue was quiet, then looked at the Minister of the Navy who had been silent. "Admiral Gorek, how do you think the dispute between the two parties should be resolved?"
Carlo's words made Admiral Gorek the focus of the meeting immediately. The army colleagues hoped that he would maintain a consistent attitude under the same circumstances as the military, while the government hoped that the navy would not be as stubborn as the army.
Admiral Golek felt the attention of both parties, so he simply made the attitude of the navy public.
"I think both sides are right, but we need to consider the development of the kingdom more, and we need everyone to be calm. So I think we need to calm down and have a good talk. As a member of the national army, the navy is very willing to help At present, the navy has 86,000 people and the tonnage of naval ships is 397,000 tons. We are willing to reduce the tonnage of 13,000 people and the tonnage of naval ships by 43,000 tons.”
Admiral Gorek's words immediately aroused a burst of warm applause from the government, while the army side stared at the actions of the Admiralty Minister. Isn't this putting their army on the fire? The navy is taking the wrong medicine.
Prime Minister DePretis took over immediately. "Thanks to the efforts of the navy and the government. We all see the efforts made by the navy for the national finances."
Admiral Gorek stopped talking, because the Navy had actually taken advantage. It sounds like the Navy wants to reduce the number of personnel and ship tonnage. In fact, the personnel the Navy wants to reduce is the Marine Corps, and who does not know where these people come from. At that time, the Marine Corps was reduced by one division and the Praetorian Guard was expanded by one division, and the problem was solved.
As for reducing the tonnage of warships, it is also simple. At present, the Navy still has many steam warships built in the 1960s and 1970s. These warships that should have been retired long ago were retained because of the need to maintain the scale of the fleet. And now take this opportunity to retire these old-fashioned warships directly. The only difficulty is those officers and soldiers, but this is not difficult. The navy always has a place to arrange, whether it is a transport fleet or other warships, they can be placed separately. a little.
With the sudden statement of the navy, Admiral Saragate and others immediately felt a little bad. Now they are being held back, how embarrassing the opposition was before.
As the government's No. 2 figure, Foreign Secretary Barcona took the opportunity to say. "Since the navy can relieve the kingdom's debts, I believe that the army, which is the pillar of the country, must also be able to understand the kingdom's situation."
As soon as he heard the Foreign Secretary's words, Admiral Saragate knew that it was impossible to retreat completely, so he had to go against his heart. "Actually, the army also wants to contribute to the kingdom's debt, but it is impossible to abolish the army to 200,000. We think 350,000 is a very reasonable number."
It is obvious that His Excellency the Minister of War intends to put down his posture and talk about it. According to the scale in his heart, if he talks slowly, he should be able to reserve a scale of 300,000 for the army.
"The Army has enough to keep in the early 200,000s. We need to prioritize the massive debt problem."
It's just that Admiral Saragat's attitude did not let the government let go. On the contrary, the Minister of Finance, Teyera, insisted on the scale of over 200,000, and did not give the opportunity to discuss it at all.
In the face of the tough demands of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Admiral Saragat got angry and patted the table angrily. "You are bullying the Army like this, and we will not agree to it."
As the Minister of War fought back, several other generals also stood up. "Yes, such a request is too unreasonable."
Just as the admirals scolded the government, an untimely voice suddenly sounded. "Actually, I think an army of 200,000 people is enough for national defense needs at present."
This sudden remark shocked several admirals, because it came from behind them. Several people immediately turned their heads to look and found that the one who said this was actually General Cadorna, the chief of staff, and they were all stunned.
Admiral Saragate, the Minister of War, glared at him and couldn't help speaking. "Admiral Cadorna, do you know what you're talking about?"
Facing the glare of the army leader, Admiral Cadorna looked at him very calmly. "I know what I'm talking about. I think 200,000 troops is enough for the current defense needs."
As the words of Admiral Cadorna fell, a group of large-waisted guards walked into the venue with their waists pressed, and looked at the generals with serious faces. Although they did not have any other actions, the meaning of it was very clear to several generals. As for the government, except for the prime minister, everyone else looked at the scene in shock.
And the kingdom Carlo, who presided over this meeting, looked at several generals and said. "The generals are old, I think you should spend more time with your family, what do you think?"
Carlo's words made several generals look very ugly, because this was to retire. And what can they do now, refuse on the spot?
Originally thought that the biggest suspect Carlo reached out to the army was Lieutenant General Simeone, but no one expected it to be one of them, General Cadorna, Chief of the General Staff.
Admiral Cadorna also felt uncomfortable. They were all people who have worked together for so many years. Now it is impossible to stand up and let the old man leave. After all, the army is the armed force of the kingdom, and the king's fear of the army traveling beyond his control is a great harm to the army.
Especially since they are all old, the king is in his prime, and he still has at least 30 or 40 years in power. At that time, will the army still be able to fly to the sky? Coupled with the increasing political skills of the king over the years, Italy has grown stronger under his leadership. The Army simply cannot resist, this is the general trend.
There is another reason that cannot be explained. Admiral Cadorna is a family of soldiers. Could it be that he really hates the king and ruins the future of the family?
Carlo, who was talked about by Admiral Cadorna, was actually not too nervous. Although he won the army in this way, it was because the army had to rectify.
The army was not moved before because it was necessary to prepare for war with the Ottomans. Take a look at the performance of the Italian army in the Balkan battlefield. It is worse than Bulgaria, whose weapons are not as good as their own. The war with the Ottomans is really going to be a bad one.
As for why it was not done immediately after the war, there were also reasons to paralyze these military leaders. In order to do today's game, this has been preparing for several years~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and before attracting Admiral Cadorna, he gave the post of Minister of War.
With such a big effort and preparation for such a long time, the leader of the army will not complain if he loses.
In the face of such a scene, the general's face is uncertain, don't think about it, there is no chance to resist. Because it was a budget meeting, they didn't bring any weapons at all, and they even had only two or three entourages. As for whether the army was in turmoil because of their retirement, it was impossible to have the traitor Cadorna, the chief of the general staff.
They didn't speak for a while, more because they really didn't expect that they couldn't accept the reality of retirement.
"Ah~~"
Admiral Saragate let out a long sigh. "I have been busy with the affairs of the military all these years, and I haven't enjoyed the joy of family for a long time."
This is obviously to accept the request to retire, and the words of Admiral Saragate disintegrated the resistance of others.
"Yeah, it's been a long time since my little granddaughter."
"It's good to go back home and see."
Several military leaders made excuses for themselves, and at the same time made the atmosphere of the venue cowardly.
No one thought that several military bosses would be dismissed like this.
Of course, there must be people in the know, such as the Prime Minister and the Secretary of the Navy.
