Transcendent Journey

In the third fleet naval base not far from where Ivan and Gary lived.

Fleet Command.

This is a solemn Gothic marble building. The main theme is pure white, which is very commensurate with the navy. It has a total height of 5-Layer, and a two-story building stands on both sides of the building. Bell tower, on the top of the tower is a tall spire that pierces the sky.

In the main conference hall, a debate concerning Ivan’s vital interests and even the future has been going on for a long time.

“Although the Kingdom promised to make an exceptional promotion for the’Navy Rising Stars’, there is a limit to this promotion. It is better for youngsters to have more experience, spoil things through excessive enthusiasm might be ruined. A good seedling!”

“Yes, the 16-year-old navy captain who has just grown up is enough to show that the kingdom attaches great importance to this excellent youngster.

Being promoted directly to battleship captain within three months of serving as captain is not only the navy without this precedent, but colleagues from other countries in the alliance will laugh at our Falitis simply because we don’t have talent!”

One wears a general uniform. Headed by the silver-haired old man, several senior naval officers who belonged to the staff room discussed spiritedly. All the words are from Ivan’s perspective, every word is for his sake, for fear that excessive rewards will “affect” the growth of this young officer.

In fact, everyone knows the qualifications of Ivan as a “Navy Rising Star”, and it is not something that the senior officials of their Trifling Third Fleet can point their fingers at.

But.

The ownership of the captured battleship “Cape Storm” is the focus of controversy!

Although Falitis has been flourishing in recent years, both economic strength and naval strength have made great progress compared with previous years, but there is still a big gap between Falitis and Sirius, a veteran sea power.

Reflected in naval equipment, the Falitis naval battleship has a smaller overall displacement and fewer artillery. Especially as a Level 1 battleship with strong firepower that can lay the groundwork for a victory, it is pitiful compared to Sirius, and can only be supplemented by more low-level battleships that are cheaper to build and have weaker firepower.

A very simple example. If the Navy really lived a rich life and had a sufficient number of battleships, it would have been impossible to “exile” Peak Knight Gehr.

So, in Falitis and the navies of most ocean kingdoms, Level 4 battleships are enough to enter the backbone of the fleet’s “main battle line” and become the one that can determine the ultimate national transport in large-scale fleet operations. A gear!

Because at least in this era, the main battle line is not available. Once it is out, it will be the ultimate gamble that will determine the national fortune and maritime hegemony in the future for dozens or hundreds of years!

Although, even in the entire history of navigation, this kind of national battle is rare, but the possession of battleship itself is already the greatest deterrent!

From the cost of a battleship, we can see how rare it is.

Take an example of a Level 3 battleship equipped with seventy-four artillery, with the highest cost performance in the navy, the perfect combination of firepower, speed and cost. Just wood needs to harvest more than 2,000 high-quality oaks planted a hundred years ago, and it took six years to build.

And these oaks must be high-quality wood that was previously planted on private estates, riversides, and sidewalks. The interval should not be too close, and each tree must be free to receive light, heat, rain, and dew so that it will not just blindly uplift like the trees in the forest and compete with the brother sister for sunshine.

Only in this way, an oak tree that has grown calmly for a century and reached a height of more than 20 meters can produce a piece of wood in the trunk that can be used to build the ribs of the battleship.

It is completely conceivable how much thick wood is needed to form such a battleship fleet, what a long growth period, and what a staggering purchase price is needed!

Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that the outcome of a large-scale Legion battle at sea is enough to affect the national movement! If the family property is gone, even if you have money, it is impossible to quickly replenish it!

Of course, if you want to use inferior pine and cypress like the low-cost merchant ship to create a so-called battleship that is not much stronger than paper shells, then I didn’t say anything.

The status commensurate with the status.

Regardless of the previous rank, becoming a battleship captain signifies that you have stepped into the rank of middle-level officer and meet the prerequisites for further promotion in the navy, with completely different treatment and status.

This is a real benefit!

“One yard into one yard, even if a pirate battleship was captured. But after all, our Major Ivan also lost the excellent battleship “Conch” belonging to the Third Fleet.

even more how, the military law stipulates that all the parts seized in wartime except for the distribution of crew members are actually public property belonging to the fleet and the kingdom.

Should be redistributed by the Fleet Command, I I feel that he should be placed in the hands of more suitable people in order to play a greater value!”

At this time, the atmosphere is almost the same. The silver-haired old man stepped forward and summed it up with a single-minded attitude. At the same time, his selfish calculations are also faintly revealed.

Bah! It’s too ugly to eat, and you don’t even need your face!

A tier 6 battleship with the lowest tier 6 in the tier 6 battleship sequence can be described as an excellent battleship by you. Then TM is just an offshore cruise ship! Is it comparable to battleships?

If someone can drive a Tier 6 ship out and then switch back to a battleship, we will collectively elect him to be the commander of the fleet! Give him all those “excellent” battleships of the fleet!

Most of the senior fleet members who represent the interests of all parties around the conference table watched his performance with expressionless faces, but they cursed secretly in their hearts.

However, the advantage of officialdom is here.

Even if you have a harder fist and stronger strength, but there is a hierarchy of systems, even if you are not convinced, you are impossible to use military force to solve the problem, but it will not be able to solve the problem.

Looking at the high-level people who didn’t speak, they all looked at themselves with inexplicable eyes. The silver-haired old man lightly coughed, who had already gone shirtless and personally finished off, continued:

“Of course, Ivan After all, the major is a rare naval talent. He has made a lot of merits and won honors for the kingdom and the fleet.

According to the battle strength product distribution system, we can completely convert battleships into Golden Lion distribution according to the highest standards. To Captain Ivan and the crew of the “Conch”.

Furthermore, I propose that since our Naval Nova is temporarily unavailable for battleship, the fleet can make an exception to assign him a Fifth Level ship. I I heard that the fleet just launched two brand new Fifth Level ships last month?”

‘Bah, shameless! ‘

Hearing this, Snett, who is also here, just wanted to punch this shameless old man in the face. The ownership of the two Fifth Level ships has been determined before they are launched, and they have passed The result of the all influence game.

Furthermore, there are half-paid captains on the shore who are more than half the number of captains in service waiting for vacancies, wanting to go to sea to make a fortune… ahem, for the Queen’s allegiance!

As soon as this proposal came out, didn’t it mean that he wanted to forcibly offend a large number of people in charge of the logistics department?

It is a good calculation to not only want to benefit from yourself, but also to be generous with the fleet! And no one in the fleet knows that Ivan is his own. You are leading a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals baring fangs and brandishing claws here. Who do you look down on? !

However, I was not suitable for directly fighting the old bastard in this staff room, and winked at a major general who also belonged to the logistics department next to him.

The major general immediately understood, and he stood up and pierced the silver-haired old man’s layer of disguise of “public use for private use” under the name of “public heart”, implicitly saying:

“Your Excellency Manison, the Third Fleet has not had a captain for a battleship for more than two years. This time the’Cape Storm’ returns, you don’t want to assign this battleship to your’outstanding’ The grandson of him?”

This silver-haired old man speaking of which is still an acquaintance of Ivan. To be precise, his steward had a relationship with Ivan. It was the Manison family who nearly gave Gehr the transcendent feature of the “Blue Flag Magic Shark” in the logistics department.

Although the major general officer did not express it in his words, he felt that the Old General was not too old to be Shi Lezhi.

Although the senior officers in the fleet beside them did not speak on the principle of a matter of no concern to oneself, their thoughts were all similar to the major general.

No one knows that although Major Ivan is young, his transcendent level is not too high. But judging from the captain’s appointment letter sent by the military department, it is clear that this man has already entered the eyes of the crown prince.

As long as he doesn’t make a big mistake, it’s just a matter of time before he becomes a man.

The silver-haired old man’s face was slightly stiff when he heard the interrogation from the major general officer Ruthless, but he couldn’t say anything in the negative.

In fact, as an old bureaucrat, how could Manison lose sight of the situation?

But I have already fiercely offended these two uncles and nephews with regard to the transcendent feature. Although I did not succeed, the enmity has been forged. To save others by oneself, if you suffer a loss when you are weak, you must find a way to retaliate fiercely!

Since he is destined not to be a friend, even if he can’t make any big moves, but now he has the opportunity to suppress and delay his progress, how can he let it go?

Moreover, he didn’t use extravagant tricks. He relied entirely on the military rules and regulations of the fleet, and no one could fault him in the official face.

even more how my only grandson in the military is over 30 years old. He didn’t pass the Navy Academy entrance test, and he didn’t even reach the minimum qualifications for the short training class. So far, it’s only An ordinary Fifth Level captain.

When I retire after two years, who can my family rely on?

Manison lacks a sense of security, this is a well known thing!
