1_1 Chapter 982 -976: The Offensive Plan!
1_1 He is a trustworthy person, and the Wren Family is also trustworthy, so Finn Lewis didn’t hide anything, and straightforwardly revealed his purpose.
When Ethan Wren took the plan that Finn Lewis handed over, he opened his personal AI brain and started browsing it right away.
Halfway through, a look of utter shock appeared on his face.
When he reached the end, Ethan Wren looked up and couldn’t help asking, “Your Highness, did you really do this?”
“Yes, I really did.” Finn Lewis nodded decisively.
“So this is the reason why you’ve been ordering so many warships from our clan lately?” Ethan Wren asked.
...
“Yes,” Finn Lewis nodded.
“Your Highness, you should have told me earlier,” Ethan Wren couldn’t help but pat his chest as he spoke.
Finn Lewis looked at Ethan Wren with some confusion. 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝖔𝔪
Seeing the puzzled look on Finn Lewis’s face, Ethan Wren immediately said, “The thing is, although the Wren Clan’s economic situation is not great, our family started with military industrial capabilities, and now our main economic and industrial strength is still in this area.
But we can’t possibly maintain all production capacity during peacetime.”
“We have many factories, and although Your Highness told me to speed up production, many of our secret factories were not activated.
The Fire Raven-Class warships you presented, although powerful, would take about three months to produce with our current capabilities.
Starting now, we can’t deliver more than one hundred and eighty ships per month, but if we go into full production, the number could double,” Ethan Wren said frankly.
Finn Lewis was also surprised.
Although he knew these clans definitely had factories hidden away, it’s the same with a country – many things, the potential for wartime production versus peacetime productivity, are incomparable, and many things in wartime are very secretive.
Just like how, after entering the twenty-first century, much of the Flame Nation’s military police and similar forces were still using ammunition made over fifty years ago, one can imagine just how much military supplies were stockpiled by the Flame Nation in that era.
And what was the industrial strength back then?
Practically nonexistent.
Yet even so, ammunition from decades ago, after several wars, had not been exhausted by modern times.
From this, one can tell just how great the difference is between a country’s full wartime reserves and its peacetime production.
But even with this, Finn Lewis had not imagined the Wren Clan had such potential.
The reason is simple: within the entire Galactic Federation, with no external enemies, almost every nation would not prepare too many warships, as these ships, once produced, only cost money, offering no profit for these nations.
Oh, and for these clans, there was simply no need to stockpile such things, so naturally, most of the clans don’t have many military industrial facilities.
But the Wren Clan was clearly an exception, though knowing this now is not too late.
