People Are Pirates, Build the Strongest Naval Branch

In a blink of an eye, a week has passed.

The Great Route, Marine Vando, Marine Headquarters, Marshal's Office.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

"Marshal, we have received an application for a branch level promotion, and we don't know how to deal with it..."

"Application for branch promotion?"

The busy Warring States only raised his head at this time and found that the person coming was Lieutenant General Zavala, who was in charge of the Four Seas Branch, and immediately frowned slightly.

The navy has clear rules for the promotion of the branch, why don't you know how to deal with it?

Isn't it just to review the materials submitted by the branch, to allow promotion if the requirements are met, and reject it if the requirements are not met?

Could it be that now that his subordinates are such a waste, that he can't even handle this matter, so he came to ask him for instructions?

"Marshal, this application is really a bit special, otherwise..."

Seeing that there was something wrong with Sengoku's face, he hurriedly explained it, but he was interrupted immediately by Sengoku, who was a little unhappy.

"What kind of special method, tell me about it when you get there!"

"Marshal, the one who applied for promotion this time is the 18th branch of the East China Sea. You also know that the original branch was to be abolished in our plan, but..."

Zavala didn't continue, but Sengoku already understood. No wonder Zavala came back and asked himself what to do, and his face suddenly softened.

It turned out to be my own pot...

No, it should be Zefa's pot!

Speaking of which, not to mention Zavala doesn't know how to deal with it, and even he is a little undecided.

Geographically, there is no need for the Eighteen Branches to exist.

Dan Zefa has been a bit decadent since that incident, and it didn't get better until Li Yan appeared.

It is precisely because of this that when Zefa came to intercede for Li Yan, he agreed without hesitation and stopped the 18th branch of the East China Sea, which was about to be closed.

After all, from the perspective of the Warring States period, it was a very cost-effective thing to keep Zefa by keeping such a branch that didn't spend much money every year.

But now the problem is coming. After Li Yan went to the 18th branch, he didn't know what was going on. The people from Donghai went to the 18th branch one by one to sign up for the Navy...

If it wasn't for Smoka's repeated investigation, and then he asked the intelligence department of the headquarters to review it again and confirmed that all those people were all right, I would have really thought that there was some force behind the idea of ​​the Eighteenth Branch.

Immediately after the recent period, the Eighteen Branches not only eliminated the pirates one after another, but also played a decisive role in cleaning up the East China Sea navy worms.

And most importantly, what Taotu reported three days ago, Li Yan has regained the strength of a lieutenant colonel or even a colonel in the naval headquarters.

In this regard, the Warring States also talked to Zefa. Since Li Yan's strength and talent have gradually recovered, should he be transferred back to the headquarters?

However, Zefa said that Li Yan only started to recover after he went to the East China Sea, and he also hopes to continue to stay in the 18th branch for a while, so don't transfer him back for the time being, lest the strength of the headquarters will be lost inexplicably...

Well, this reason is very strong, at least the Warring States did not expect it, and Zefa also began to believe these ghosts and gods.

But how to deal with this problem now?

According to naval regulations, even the Warring States Marshal had no reason to reject the application.

But the problem is, this branch doesn't even have a meaning to exist, right?

Oh, big head!

"Savala, let me think about this matter, you go down first!"

"Yes, Marshal!"

"Come on!"

"Marshal!"

When Zavala went out, Sengoku called the guards at the door again.

"Go and inform Staff He, Lieutenant General Garp, and Chief Instructor Zefa to come to my office for a meeting."

"Yes, Marshal!"

More than ten minutes later, when everyone arrived, the Warring States Period talked about the application of the Eighteenth Branch to be upgraded to the fourth-level branch, and then looked at the three of them.

However, what he didn't expect was that the first person to speak was Karp.

"Warring States, you must be promoted. I don't think the fourth class is enough, so let's upgrade to the third class branch."

"My grandson of a dignified naval hero, serving in a fifth-class branch, what's it like!"

While buttoning his nose, Garp said carelessly, and Sengoku's face suddenly darkened.

"Warring States, what was the original intention of the establishment of the branch promotion system?"

Ignoring the Kapuna goods, Crane asked calmly, resting his chin in his hands.

"Original intention?"

"Naturally, just like people, ordinary sailors need a fair ascent channel to stimulate them to work harder to catch pirates. Similarly, the branch also needs an ascension channel, come..."

"Crane, what do you mean..."

Halfway through, Sengoku suddenly reacted, what is the core of Crane's problem.

"Yes, just like the marines, if a branch does not have an ascending channel, then they will only sweep the snow in front of the door, and maybe even don't even bother to sweep the snow in front of the door in the end!"

"And in order to prevent such a situation from happening, we have set up an ascending channel for the branch. This is to tell all the branches that as long as you work hard, you will be rewarded!"

"If that's the case, why do you have so much trouble?"

"Is it because the merits made by the Eighteen Branches are not enough for promotion?"

"No, you just think that there is no need for that branch to exist, am I right?"

Hearing this, Sengoku also nodded his head.

Indeed this is the reason.

"Then, here comes the question. In the past few years, which branch did the pirate group with the highest bounty captured by each branch in the East China Sea?"

"It's the Evil Dragon Pirates, the bounty for the whole group has reached 34.5 million, and 18 of them were arrested... uh!"

"Then let me ask you again, which branch discovered the problem of the sixteen branches and contributed the main force in solving this problem?"

"It's the Eighteen Branches..."

"Then, why do you think that the Eighteen Branches have no meaning to exist? In my opinion, in the past two months alone, the Eighteen Branches have more significance than any branch in the East China Sea. isn't it?"

"this..."

Sengoku couldn't refute, he had to admit that what Crane said was very reasonable.

You said that the other branches have meanings of existence, but the eighteen branches do not.

However, the Evil Dragon Pirates were killed by the 18th branch, and this naval moth incident was also solved by the 18th branch...

Having said that, compared to the other branches, the Eighteen Branches are more meaningful?

Well, Sengoku admitted that he was persuaded by the crane.

However, before the final decision, Sengoku still wanted to ask someone's opinion.

"Zefa, Li Yan is your disciple, you can also express your opinion!"

"I originally planned to avoid suspicion, do you really want me to tell?"

"Tell me, the four of us have come to this day together in the same era, and no one else is there. What can you tell me to avoid suspicion..."

"Well, actually, I think this is an opportunity!"

"Chance?"

The three all looked at Zefa with some doubts.

"Yes, chance!"

"In the four seas, our navy has established the position of governor, but now the position of governor of the East China Sea has been vacant for many years, and the current navy of the East China Sea is also managed by the town of Rogge in Smog."

"However, what is the meaning of the existence of Rogge Town itself? It is the entrance to guard the great route!"

"Will they manage it well?"

"Look at the good things the Dragon Pirates have done, and then look at the scumbags of the Sixteen Branch. For so many years, Rogge Town has found nothing and knows nothing..."

"Therefore, I think the post of Governor of the East China Sea should be restored. As for the candidate, don't you think Li Yan is very suitable?"

"Of course, I don't mean to give Li Yan this position now. We can investigate for a few months or even half a year. If the 18th branch can meet the promotion requirements again and apply for promotion to the third-level branch, then Does it mean that he is qualified for this position?"

After listening to Zefa's suggestion, Sengoku's eyes also lit up.

Originally thought that the East China Sea, which is called the weakest sea, would be fine for Smog to manage it, but after the incident of the Sixteen Branches, the Warring States period also felt...

It's fine for you to let Smoker guard the entrance to the Great Route, but if you let him rule the entire East China Sea, he's really not like that.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be that the village of Cocosia was ruled by a dragon for six years, and he didn't even know it!

It can be said that Smoker can be a general, but he can't be a handsome.

As for Li Yan, shouldn't what he has done during this period of time should be exactly what the Governor of the East China Sea should do?

As Zefa said, if he can really make the 18th branch make enough merits to apply for promotion to the third-rank branch, then he is indeed qualified to hold this position.

You must know that the promotion conditions for the third-level branch are the total bounty of the pirates that are captured or killed, reaching the level of 300 million baileys.

"He, what do you think?"

Although he already had an idea in his mind, Sengoku still asked Xiahe.

After all, it's not just empty words to ask the crane when everything is undecided...

"I think it can, if Li Yanzhen can do it within half a year."

"Okay, then the 18th branch is officially upgraded to the fourth-level branch, and an assessment is issued to Li Yan at the same time. If the 18th branch under his leadership can meet the conditions for promotion to the third-level branch within six months, he will be given the rank of brigadier general and appointed. Governor of the East China Sea!"

With Crane's approval, Zhan also made a decision directly.
