Chương 1908: Battle of the North Sea (54)

Zhan Guo stared closely at the man in front of him, thinking secretly in his heart.

The reason why this lieutenant general was able to be promoted to such a high position was not because of any earth-shaking achievements, but because of years of hard work and small achievements accumulated bit by bit.

Just like sand piled up to form a tower, he worked hard and persisted until he finally gained a place in the Navy Headquarters and became a vice admiral.

However, in terms of strength, this lieutenant general can only be considered to have barely reached the level of a major general.

He only mastered three or four of the six naval styles, and his strength was only mediocre among many powerful people.

Zhan Guo knew very well that once this order was issued, it would be equivalent to directly negating the achievements of these people over the past decades.

But he also understands that times have changed and the situation today is very different from the past.

The navy is now standing on the edge of a cliff and will fall into the abyss if it is not careful.

If the navy does not make changes, it may be destroyed. This is why Zhan Guo is pushing this plan with all his strength.

This order was actually obtained by Zhan Guo himself from the Five Elders.

Originally, the Five Elders planned to transfer one-third of the generals from the navy to the army, which would undoubtedly have a huge impact on the strength of the navy.

In order to deal with this situation, Zhan Guo had to rack his brains and come up with various ways to make up for the one-third of the navy's missing combat power.

The best way is to recruit strong people with clean backgrounds from all over the world, allowing them to rise to the top of the navy directly.

In this way, not only can the strength of the navy be rapidly enhanced, but also various problems caused by internal personnel transfers can be avoided.

In a world where strength is respected, a naval position is undoubtedly extremely attractive.

Especially the senior positions such as colonel, major general and lieutenant general are even more sought after.

Possessing the strength of a colonel is enough to take charge of a branch and become the core force in the region.

The strength of a major general is enough to patrol a vast sea area and ensure safety and order at sea.

As for the vice admirals, they are absolutely high-ranking figures in the navy. They not only possess strong strength, but also hold actual power.

Whether it is managing a sea area or commanding the whole world, it requires elites like lieutenant generals to lead.

It can be said that the status of a vice admiral in the navy is no less than that of a king of a country.

The attraction of such status and power to the world is naturally self-evident.

Today's navy is facing an unprecedented crisis.

Marshal Zhan Guo looked at everyone solemnly and said solemnly: "These are extraordinary times. The Navy is already standing on the edge of a precipice. The shortage of troops and the weakness of the Navy's combat power have caused our Navy Headquarters to gradually fall behind other forces in the world. If no changes are made, I am afraid that the Navy will slowly die out. This is an order issued by the World Government, and we must do our utmost!"

Zhan Guo's tone was extremely serious, and everyone couldn't help but feel an uproar in their hearts.

They all understood that the Marshal's decision was no joke, but a well-considered one that had been approved by the World Government.

"The world's conscription will be led by Crane!"

Sengoku said this seriously, his eyes falling on Crane, the most steady man in the Marine Headquarters.

He nodded slightly, indicating that he accepted the task.

She knew that although conscription work seemed simple, it actually required a high sense of responsibility and organizational skills.

As an experienced naval commander, she is already familiar with this kind of civilian work.

After all, this is He's third time hosting the World Recruitment, and the previous two experiences have allowed her to accumulate a lot of valuable experience.

However, this conscription was different from previous ones, and the Warring States period placed special emphasis on recruiting strong men.

Crane pondered for a moment, then looked up at Sengoku and requested, "I need the assistance of Vice Admirals Momotosagi and Chaton!"

She was well aware of the importance of this conscription. With the help of two powerful lieutenant generals, Taotu and Chatun, she would be able to complete the mission better.

Zhan Guo nodded in agreement without hesitation: "Okay, let Lieutenant Generals Taotu and Chatun assist you!"

He was also very confident in the abilities of these two lieutenant generals.

Taotu and Chatun are both elites in the navy, and their strength is the strongest under the admiral.

Anyone who can defeat them is almost certainly a general-level fighter.

Zhan Guo knew very well that it was almost impossible to recruit a strong man of the general level from the people.

Therefore, as long as strong people like Taotu and Chatun could join the navy, he would be very satisfied.

Even if there is only one strong person, it will be a huge gain for the Warring States Period.

After all, today's navy is really lacking in truly strong men.

Although on the surface the number of strong men in the navy has reached the strongest stage in history, in fact, this is far from meeting the severe situation facing the navy.

Not to mention the distant Rockefeller Kingdom, the Three Emperors of Paradise at the Navy's doorstep and the numerous pirates active on the sea are enough to give the Navy a headache.

These forces are not only powerful, but also collude with each other to form a powerful anti-naval force.

Faced with such a complicated situation, Zhan Guo knew that relying solely on existing forces was far from enough.

"In addition to continuing to recruit soldiers, for the next period of time, with the exception of the two generals Aokiji and Akainu, the remaining generals must immediately reorganize the army. Led by General Kizaru, they must rush to the North Sea to resist the attack of the Rockefeller Kingdom!"

Warring States said.

"Yes!"

All the generals responded in unison, expressing their firm obedience to Zhan Guo's orders.

Next, Zhan Guo began to explain the details in detail.

He meticulously arranged the tasks of each general, ensuring that everyone was clear about their responsibilities and goals.

The meeting lasted a whole day and night, during which no one left. Everyone listened attentively to Zhan Guo's instructions.

Finally, after a long discussion and arrangement, the general content of the meeting was finally discussed.

The generals also had a clearer understanding of their respective tasks.

Although the meeting was exhausting, everyone understood that it was a necessary effort to address the current crisis.

Kamei Island!

The originally sunny sky was suddenly torn apart by a bolt from the blue, as if the whole world was trembling.

Along with a deafening roar, an extremely huge pentagram appeared in the sky above Kami Island. Its scale was so huge that it was jaw-dropping.
