What's the key? Protect yourself, manage your energy wisely, trust your comrades, and don't underestimate any enemy on the battlefield.
Doesn't she know this?
Unexpectedly... he, who knew everything, died outside Pioneer Island.
In the end, I didn't get to see him for the last time before I died.
When she came out of the medical room and heard what Taizog had said, she had a bad feeling and hurriedly found Noah.
Then I saw the figure next to Jinbei on the top of the fortress. My mind went blank.
It was no longer as tall as usual, but lying quietly on the ground.
Her tears suddenly flowed uncontrollably.
There was no hysterical crying, but she just knelt beside the big bear's body and shed tears silently.
She could hear the people around her talking to her, but it was as if there was a layer of sea water between them and she couldn't hear anything at all.
Jinbei seemed to be saying sorry to her all the time, I guess.
Finally, time passed slowly until today.
Looking at the name on the tombstone, she accepted the fact.
"Bonnie..."
Taizog walked behind Bonnie without knowing when.
Bonnie said after a moment of silence.
"You should go and comfort Xiao Feng."
Taizog looked towards a place not far away.
A one-armed man was crying loudly in front of the tombstone, tears streaming down his face. The unbearable pain he saw made the other family members feel sad.
"Xiao Feng can come out on his own after he finishes crying."
"But you...repress it for too long, it's not good for your health."
"Don't worry, you've already had enough of the sadness you need to have in these few days. I will continue the path he didn't take and witness the arrival of a new world on his behalf."
Bonnie said in a decisive tone, now she was calm and composed, turning her grief into strength.
Seeing the transformation of his friend, Taizog was naturally pleased.
"I'm glad you think so. Let's have a few drinks together sometime."
"Then go and pull that guy up first. His tears have been drowned by the flowers."
"it is good."
When Bonnie left, a huge figure walked out and looked at Big Bear's tombstone.
"I'm sorry, I will definitely take good care of her."
Chapter 462: Out of Sorrow, Victory is Just Around the Corner
……
When it got dark, everyone left.
A new day has arrived, and the revolutionary army can no longer indulge in sorrow, as they don't have much time left.
The first official meeting since the war began.
There were major changes in the personnel participating in this high-level meeting.
Although we lost some people, we also gained some new ones.
Dragon, Noah, Fujitora, Jinbei, Zephyr, Robin, Otohime, Tiger, Belo Betty, Lindbergh, Mori, Crow. Tyzog, Von Clay, Joelle Bonnie.
With the end of the South China Sea war, the department's structure was restructured.
Depending on the situation, some personnel promotions have to be made, especially young people, as a new stage of the revolutionary army is about to begin.
For example, Taizog, who was previously in charge of the South China Sea Federation, has always performed very well. He also demonstrated good decision-making ability in this South China Sea war. Such talents should step onto a bigger stage as soon as possible.
Xiao Feng and Bonnie also performed very well in this war, so they were promoted together. The revolutionary army was seriously short of manpower.
But not everyone came to participate in the meeting. For example, Brooke and Koshiro were not interested in government affairs and other public affairs, so they just continued to do their own things.
Zefa was brought here by Noah. Since he has joined the Revolutionary Army, he should not be treated specially. The character of this former Navy instructor is indeed beyond reproach. Everyone agrees with this.
The meeting begins.
First, everyone reported on the current suppression and blockade of the South China Sea by the Navy and the World Government.
The blockade of the island chain cannot be tight at all. No one can blockade a sea area. In fact, it is just a deterrent to people outside the South China Sea.
Or just ordinary do not have the ability and courage to cross this blockade.
and slow-moving merchant ships, especially those carrying bulk cargo.
Such ships are what the Navy is aiming for.
Most of the Revolutionary Army's own resources are transported through the sea. With the combined efforts of the two magic weapons, coating and the murlocs, it is easy to cross the blockade.
However, with all the oceans connected, the conversion of materials cannot be carried out by the revolutionary army alone, which is very unfavorable for the development of the South China Sea.
As for the deployment of military forces, it is said that the base bordering the South China Sea and the Revolutionary Army will have a general-level combat force stationed there permanently.
Just like the G1 branch, only with such combat power as a warning can they feel a little relieved.
Of course, this is just a stopgap measure for the Navy. Because of the change of leadership and some frictions between the World Government and the Navy, they are currently reorganizing internally.
For the time being, he is unable to engage in armed confrontation, and he doesn't know which general will come to guard the place. Noah is secretly looking forward to it.
After summarizing the navy’s military actions.
Taizog also produced a report on the various types of losses on Pioneer Island.
After listening to this, everyone felt that the revolutionary army’s investment this time was so huge and the losses were even greater. How long will it take to recover?
Noah saw it differently.
"Don't think that our losses in this regard are huge. We lag behind our opponents in combat power, so it is worthwhile to exchange supplies and investment for victory. Moreover...the losses are much less than I thought."
Less than expected?
Most people don’t understand. Every number in this report is an astronomical figure. Why does Noah have such an idea?
“First of all, the economic losses are huge, but they can still be made up.
The South China Sea itself is a relatively backward sea area, and it has been developed very shallowly. Even after the Revolutionary Army took over, it was not fully developed before the integration.
Not long after the integration, the navy attacked. In fact, most of our previous economic materials were only produced by the South China Sea Federation.
In the South China Sea War, a large amount of manpower and material resources were not mobilized. We used the core strength of the revolutionary army to fight this battle.
Now that development has become apparent, we can carry out drastic reforms and truly harness the power of the South China Sea to achieve rapid development.
If these figures are put in the context of the entire South China Sea, it is easy to digest.”
Well, when I do the math, it's true.
We had considered mobilizing the people of the South China Sea before, but we stopped because we were afraid of losing the support of the people. Now that we have defeated the World Government, we can officially start the work of full liberation.
At this time, the people of Nanhai have become more convinced of the revolutionary army.
In fact, the main losses are still on some high-end materials, equipment and rare supplies.
The circulation of materials in this area is subject to very strong restrictions by the World Government, such as the circulation of explosive rock and seastone.
There are also some other important materials, such as high-quality shipbuilding wood, etc. Top-quality materials like Baoshu Adam will never appear in the South China Sea again.
If it is a small transaction, it can still be found through the underground black market or some channels, but it is difficult to ship in large quantities. But it is only difficult.
After all, there are people who do business that will get them killed, but no one will do business that will lose them money.
With the character of the merchant in this sea, it is still worth looking forward to.
After everyone had announced their opinions, it was Noah's turn to speak.
Apart from being immersed in sadness in the past few days, he spent the rest of his time working to suppress his sadness.
“At present, there are both advantages and disadvantages in our showdown with the World Government.
But overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
The Revolutionary Army will eventually come to the fore, and the World Government has given us a hand.
There is no better advertisement than a victory to announce our presence.
This battle not only gave confidence to the revolutionary army, but also gave confidence to the people of the South China Sea, and also gave confidence to millions of oppressed people outside the South China Sea.
I believe the sea will not be calm in the next few years, and the rebels will continue to make their voices heard.
This is an unprecedented change in the past 800 years.
The battle of the South China Sea kicked off! It is our honor! "
Everyone sat up straight when they heard this because their blood was boiling.
When a thing is related to a sense of mission, a historical mission, and subversion of the world, it is immediately different.
Even Zefa, who was in a more awkward position, felt that an invisible new force appeared on the sea.
The previous grief and sorrow were swept away.
"Next, there will be a long-term confrontation. Although it may seem calm, the private clashes are actually more dangerous than before.
After that, we will focus on the Four Seas, use the Four Seas to surround the Grand Line, and ultimately complete the encirclement of the World Government and create an opportunity for a decisive battle.
This will be more difficult and more dangerous than before, and more comrades will sacrifice their lives.
But there will also be more awakening of thoughts, more liberation of countries, and more people joining our cause.
Victory is at hand! "
Chapter 463: Each General Has His Own Place
After these words, everyone's emotions were aroused by Noah.
The military’s morale is good.
He took out a thick stack of documents and distributed a copy to each person.
This is a work plan that was sorted out in advance. It is the result of the research done by the General Staff, Noah, and Long in the past few days.
"In the next few years, we will have to adjust our strategic direction."
"Here is the general plan. If anyone has any objections, they can raise them at any time and we will make changes early."
In the future, we must fully tap the potential of the South China Sea in all aspects and make preparations for future full-scale wars.
Each of you here will be responsible for an important job.
Within the South China Sea, we will directly implement the current policies of the South China Sea Federation and increase efforts to integrate all island towns into our management system.
Basic education for the new generation must be universalized, and adult literacy classes must be vigorously developed. Many policies that were previously restricted by the world government can be implemented in one step.
We are short of people, a large number of talents. We are already short of manpower for the South China Sea alone, not to mention the four seas strategy that will follow.
I would like Robin to be responsible for this aspect. She has rich experience in educating students and is adept at handling these issues.
At this point, Robin said it was no problem.
There is no way to discuss the development of scientific research. Dr. Yuejian and his colleagues are already very good, and Noah can no longer give any new suggestions in this regard.
Just let them take care of their own business.
There is no need to come to this meeting. We will all stay on Bika to repair the sky island.
If we can recruit outstanding scientific research talents in the future, we can add more of them to BiKa.
Science changes the world, and it is not wrong. Green Bull, who died at the hands of Bika, has something to say.
Then, in terms of economy, we should continue to contact those businessmen from the outside world and become the business partners of the revolutionary army.
