"If you ask me, I'm afraid the delay will be more than just one day."
Zhou Yongtao was even more puzzled, and Li Mingbo's brow furrowed further.
Bai Zhizhan smiled and continued, "Since we've missed the optimal time to declare war and have already issued an ultimatum, unless we fire the first shot, Rofuss must obtain war authorization from Congress according to Newland Federation law, even if it's just partial authorization, before formally declaring war on us. Even if we streamline the statutory procedures, it will take at least half a day."
"Don't forget the time difference of over ten hours," Li Mingbo added.
Bai Zhizhan nodded, then said, "Taking all that into account, besides having the battleships engage in night warfare, there's no way the start of the war can be anything but postponed to the day after tomorrow."
Zhou Yongtao didn't say anything, simply nodded, indicating he understood.
