Extreme Cold Era: Shelter Don't Keep Waste Chapter 218 - 214: Requesting Personnel from the Military

"Count Brandelis, what do you wish the Navy to do?" The Admiral did not imdiately agree to Perfikot’s request, instead wanting to learn more.

As an Admiral, he was naturally qualified to know what Perfikot was doing in the Northern Territory.

Whether she could successfully complete her plan in the Northern Territory was vital to the survival of the entire Empire, so no one dared to cause trouble for Perfikot under such circumstances.

Even the most disruptive Noble Council and elected councils usually compete for power, divide interests, but this ti they remained silent and cooperated sincerely, not daring to undermine Perfikot, the Count of the Northern Territory at this critical juncture.

So might not be convinced by Perfikot, a re woman, but she had proven her strength and excellence, confirming her irreplaceability from another perspective.

Under these circumstances, neither the Navy nor the Noble Council considered replacing her.

Hence, the Admiral did not plan to have the Navy interfere in the Northern Territory to undermine Perfikot.

If he truly intended to do so, all the responsibility would shift to the Navy. It would be fine if it succeeded, but if it failed, it would be the end for the Navy.

As for whether the Navy could accomplish the task? The Admiral was self-aware; while competent at fighting, in terms of construction, although the Navy had so capability, it was not enough to bear the responsibility of constructing shelters in the Northern Territory.

In comparison, the Army might have more achievents in this area, but they also didn’t dare to guarantee they could shoulder this responsibility.

Precisely because of this, when Perfikot ntioned needing soone to work for her to free her hands for other matters, the thoughts of the Admiral and General were only about assisting Perfikot, not seeing it as an opportunity to ddle in the Northern Territory.

Faced with the discernnt of the two generals, Perfikot didn’t say much. She simply said to them, "I need to borrow your logistics system. The construction in the Northern Territory requires a massive input of materials. I need the Navy to help transport materials from the holand and the New Continent colonies to the Northern Territory, while the Army needs to assist in building so projects.

Due to well-known reasons, the Northern Territory is severely lacking qualified managent personnel, so you also need to lend so excellent logistics managers to help handle related matters."

These tasks should have been handled by the managent personnel of the Northern Territory, but although Perfikot had recruited so people in Langton, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Rember, this is the entire Northern Territory, not just one or two cities, especially as there were nearly no natives and settlers to utilize there, and no self-established settlents by pioneers, making attempts at replicating the colonial managent model impossible.

Upon hearing Perfikot’s request to borrow manpower, the Admiral and General exchanged a glance and quickly made a decision. "The Navy’s New Continent Detached Squadron is at your disposal, and additionally, we will organize at least twenty cargo ships to form a transport fleet to provide services for the Northern Territory."

"The Army will send an army group-level logistics team to the Northern Territory. Little Perfikot, you can use them as you wish," the General straightforwardly promised the maximum within his authority, "If more manpower is needed, you can submit a report to expand the troops; within the scale of an army group, there will be no restrictions from the Military Departnt."

"Not bad, why not throw in the officer corps while you’re at it?" Perfikot thought for a mont and decided to request the officers of the army group as well.

In Victory Empire’s military organization, army groups usually have full complents of officer corps and logistics teams; combat units above the regint level retain only the organization and officers, recruiting soldiers into units only during warti.

Such a structure was to reduce logistical pressure and avoid maintaining large military expenditures in peaceful tis.

Moreover, normal combat units at the regint level are staffed with only a third of the personnel to maintain experienced veteran ratios, not filling the organization completely.

Of course, units like the Guards, City Guards, and colonial garrisons maintain a full complent to respond to sudden situations.

If the three earlier nations declared war on Victory, the Empire’s regular approach would be large-scale mobilization, filling unit organization and sending them to the front lines.

This resulted in army groups nominally assembled, but with combat capacity potentially inferior to Perfikot’s Guard Division.

Perfikot wasn’t seeking a complete army group but rather these experienced officers and logistics teams to throw at the task of shelter construction, saving herself so trouble.

As for the combat units, the 17th Guard Division will move north next spring, and together with her White Bear Knight Order, they are fully sufficient.

The General hesitated a bit hearing Perfikot’s request for the officer corps, pondering before answering, "I can’t decide on this; it needs internal discussions within the Military Departnt, but it shouldn’t be a big problem, just the officer corps."

"Then I’ll wait for your good news." Perfikot, seeing the matters settled, nodded satisfactorily and prepared to send the two generals away.

However, the two generals, having traveled so far, naturally wouldn’t return empty-handed and sought so benefits from Perfikot.

"Count, about the Flying Stone..." The Admiral, with a hopeful tone, began talking to Perfikot, but before he could finish, Perfikot raised her hand, signaling him to stop.

Perfikot revealed the Flying Stone from her pocket, displaying it to the two generals and said, "This is the Flying Stone, a substance that doesn’t exist in nature. I made it with the Philosopher’s Stone, an imaginary elent.

Because of this, it completely defies natural laws, allowing a person to beco lighter than air and directly fly.

I just ntioned that creating it requires the Philosopher’s Stone, so this is currently the only piece.

If you think you can find an alchemist better than , go ahead and research it, otherwise, don’t pester anymore, you two old gentlen."

With Perfikot’s words, the two generals could only reluctantly express their submission to Perfikot’s wishes before bidding their farewells, sowhat disappointed.
