Finding Jonas's registration records took some effort, mainly because Jonas's things were all over the place, and it took quite a while to locate them.
About an hour later, finally, some information came through.
"Found the registration. The registration info for Jonas shows that the introducer for Chen Bufan on the island comes from Golden City, named Giant Stone Lawson."
"From Golden City... Lawson!"
James's eyes widened immediately; he already knew.
During this time, he also reviewed a lot of data about Ye Fan. Although Ye Fan was from the Divine Dragon Province, he had been to Golden City, which was also under his control.
The nominal boss of Golden City was Lawson!
This was a solid confirmation. Chen Bufan should indeed be Ye Fan.
At this thought, James felt his entire body trembling.
What a daring person Ye Fan is, bold enough to come to Wanguo Island alone back then. Wasn't he afraid of being discovered, with nowhere to run?
The building collapse event last night was undoubtedly orchestrated by him or his subordinates.
The death of some council members was just a decoy. Their real aim was to prevent Jonas from going to the police station.
Such a little trick had delayed the entire night.
James hurriedly inquired about the situation on Ye Fan's side.
The answer was unknown, because everyone was busy last night, and no one paid attention to that side.
James was anxious; he calculated that if Ye Fan had reinforcements, then it was likely to buy time for landing.
No, he absolutely cannot allow him this time!
James immediately issued orders for Wanguo Island to enter a state of emergency, summoned all council members for a meeting, and simultaneously called the soldiers on the island to assemble.
This was his power as chairman, to declare an emergency status on the island and mobilize the military.
Hold a meeting to brief all the council members that Chen Bufan is Ye Fan.
However, assembling the troops takes time, with many countries on the island and varying distances, it would take about three to four hours to fully gather and set out for Ye Fan's villa by noon.
No, that's too slow.
James decided resolutely, making another daring decision.
Ye Fan's villa area is at the northeast corner of Wanguo Island, closest to the residential area of Curry Country.
He must immediately dispatch the Curry Country's army to attack the villa area, ideally to eliminate Ye Fan in one fell swoop. If they can take out Ye Fan's group, his main forces would have no one to connect with when landing.
A two-pronged approach, that's James's decision!
Orders were quickly issued, and council members from various countries rushed to the council meeting.
The entire Wanguo Island entered a state of emergency; all streets were under military control, with no vehicles allowed, to make way for troop movements.
Meanwhile, Curry Country also received the order from the chairman, and they hastily began organizing troops.
However, there was no prior notification, and the incident happened suddenly, so gathering the troops would also take some time, with an attack possible in about an hour.
A series of orders were issued, and the whole Wanguo Island tensed up.
Pedestrians on the streets were all driven home, and troops from various countries kept emerging.
Armored vehicles, artillery, tanks!
Sirens blared for assembly, and fully armed soldiers urgently began to gather.
......
Ye Fan was aware of the outside situation, but he was uninterested at the moment.
Shen Ruihui and his team did well last night, buying Ye Fan an entire night's time.
Don't underestimate that one night; it was precisely because of it that the Dawn Army gained time to advance.
Now, the main force of the Dawn Army was only eighty kilometers from the north bank of Celestial River.
In about an hour, the main force will reach the north bank.
At this point, Ye Fan no longer needed to worry; the ten-meter-high wall within the villa had been replaced by walls similar to those of Dawn City. He directly positioned the shipyard that he had already built.
With a loud noise, a giant shipyard appeared by the shore.
It bore some similarities to the shipyards in the Red Alert System, consisting of both water and land sections.
The water part had four massive pillars supporting a giant steel structure building.
At the top of the building, there were huge cranes to help move large ships.
The land part extended onto the beach, directly taking over the backyard of a villa, resulting in a gigantic shipyard three hundred and fifty meters long.
As the construction of the shipyard was completed, a system notification immediately sounded.
[Congratulations, Commander, on successfully constructing the shipyard; you can now establish a navy. Please assign personnel for the navy.]
Ye Fan had already planned, and immediately said: "Five thousand people!"
[Navy personnel assignment complete. Commander, please note, once the navy reaches five thousand people, your rank can be promoted to Brigadier General.]
Ye Fan exhaled deeply; finally, there was a navy. The population cap of the Dawn Army was once again raised, with the total military strength now able to increase to thirty-one thousand people.
He immediately opened the system to see what new troops the navy had brought him.
First, the soldier page.
Several new types of troops were added.
[Navy Soldier: Regular naval soldier, trained and developed in military skills, proficient in swimming and naval combat details. Cost: 200 Gold.]
[Frogman: Naval underwater operator, with excellent swimming and underwater work capabilities. Cost: 1,000 Gold.]
[Marine Corps: Naval special forces, possessing powerful firepower and individual combat capabilities. Cost: 1,500 Gold.]
Scanning through quickly, Ye Fan did not immediately produce them, because according to his expectations, ordinary navy did not need special production, many vehicles should already be equipped with them.
He opened the vehicle page again.
Several new vehicles were added here.
[Assault Boat: Small naval vessel, can carry eight people. Cost: 1,000 Gold.]
[Pontoon Vehicle: Vehicle used for carrying floating bridges. Cost: 3,000 Gold.]
[Hovercraft Landing Craft: Naval landing vessel, maximum load of 150 tons, maximum speed of 65 knots, can carry soldiers and tanks, equipped with 10 crew members. Cost: 30,000 Gold.]
[Type 71 Dock Landing Ship: Full load displacement of 2.5 tons, ship length 215 meters, width 30 meters, can accommodate 40 armored vehicles or 20 main battle tanks, and 700 soldiers, can carry 5 helicopters on board, equipped with one 76mm close-in defense cannon and four 30mm close-in defense cannons, with 30 crew members. Cost: 1,000,000 Gold.]
[Divine Dragon Battleship: Full load displacement of 58,000 tons, length 270 meters, width 33 meters, equipped with nine 406mm caliber triple-mounted main guns, ten dual-mounted 127mm high-angle secondary guns, 60 anti-aircraft guns of 40mm and 20mm calibers, 370mm armor, can carry four helicopters. Equipped with 1,500 crew members. Cost: 3,000,000 Gold. Note: Can install missile system after constructing Combat Laboratory.]
Looking at these newly arrived five vehicles, Ye Fan was excited.
This is at the Brigade Commander level of the navy!
He unlocked the dock landing ship and battleship, which are both very useful now.
A few days ago, Ye Fan watched the Celestial River air battle, and those transport ships and battleships were nothing compared to his warships.
They were just converted freighters, with poor performance in all aspects.
But his ships were different; they were real war weapons, with weapon configuration, radar configuration, and armor configuration far superior to the enemy ships.
Although these ships were temporary for Ye Fan, they were still very useful.
He quickly formulated a battle plan in his mind.
First, he needed to produce the pontoon vehicle.
This is very useful. To cross from the north of the Celestial River, there are only two ways: by ship or bridge.
The bridge had been destroyed, and the ships couldn't transport that many people at once, so building a temporary floating bridge was highly necessary.
The people on Wanguo Island might never have imagined he had this trick up his sleeve.
The straight-line distance from his villa area to the opposite bank of Celestial River was about a thousand meters.
Ye Fan selected a pontoon vehicle, and it appeared immediately.
It was a grass-green military truck with a huge floating bridge on top.
There were four people inside the vehicle, all soldiers for building the floating bridge.
Ye Fan stopped them from saluting and inquired about the pontoon vehicle.
"Sir, one vehicle can carry a bridge surface with a width of thirty meters, lengthwise it's thirty meters, crosswise it's twenty meters, and each thirty meters requires two pontoon vehicles."
Ye Fan calculated, thirty meters for two vehicles, so about 68 vehicles would be needed for a thousand meters.
He started manufacturing them without hesitation, and had already set the birth point, with one vehicle appearing on the villa side, while another appeared on the opposite bank of the river.
This way, they could build on both sides simultaneously and connect them, increasing efficiency.
When the main force arrived, they could directly cross through the floating bridge.
While building the pontoon vehicles, he also needed to build warships.
Besides other warships, a battleship was essential.
No, even one battleship wasn't enough; he needed at least two to ensure the safety of his waters.
James on his side was also mobilizing troops, likely starting naval operations soon.
In today's naval warfare, battleships were undoubtedly the kings.
Although 3,000,000 per ship seemed a bit expensive, Ye Fan was quite wealthy now and could afford it.
He selected two battleships in one go, and the dock's construction time wasn't too slow; it would take two hours to produce one.
This made Ye Fan relieved, as taking several days to build a ship would have been really troublesome.
After selecting the battleships, Ye Fan received a message.
"Sir, there's movement on the side of Curry Country; their troops are fully assembled and are coming towards us."
"Oh! How many are there? What's their weaponry like?"
"About 5,000 soldiers, with ten tanks, twenty armored vehicles, and no artillery."
Hearing this, Ye Fan temporarily ignored the beach and decisively clicked for rapid troop production.
The army and air force couldn't be produced, so he'd focus on the navy!
Navy Soldiers and Marine Corps were to adjust to land combat!
