Chapter 1089 The Atlantic Fleet of the Empire ([-]rd update, please subscribe)
"Captain, the flagship has issued an order."

The first officer of the "Shandong" battleship reported loudly on the phone.

This battleship is the fourth ship of the "Nanhua Class". It used to be the pride of the Imperial Navy, the pearl of the Imperial Shipbuilding Industry - once.

Now it's just an ordinary battleship.

"Oh?"

Captain Yan Haipeng, who was standing by the chart table and chatting with two naval officers, turned around quickly.

"What order?"

"The commander ordered the fleet to enter the first level of combat readiness! Sir."

Lieutenant Colonel Qi Mingfei replied loudly that although the expression on the first officer's face was still serious and calm, Yan Haipeng could still hear the uncontrollable excitement in his voice.

In fact, he was also excited, but he just forced himself to calm down.

Needless to say, the contemporaries all knew who the captain was referring to, and it must be Zhu Zhenwu. It is impossible for the 12 members of the Hammock to become the captain. Captain, sir, there is also a great chance.Zhu Zhenwu didn't notice their envious eyes at all, he just focused on the sea.

"It's finally started."

Therefore, compared to the young master who tasted hundreds of thousands of cups of tea and held high positions in the empire, Emperor Zhu would rather be a little more rigid than give them "eclectic" power.

"All personnel arrive at the combat position immediately, the entire ship is at the first level of combat readiness!"

Yan Penghai and the others had already reached the top of the bridge. They stood there against the sea breeze and looked towards the surrounding sea.A huge fleet appeared before his eyes.

It can be said that the Imperial Navy is the best, at least the Atlantic Fleet is the best!
"How about it, Zhenwu, you have never seen such a powerful fleet!"

At this time, there were busy scenes everywhere on the battleship, and teams of sailors were running around the deck quickly, making final preparations before the battle.

The huge hull cut through the blue sea water like this, and moved quickly on the sea.

"Yes, Captain."

"Yeah, I got it."

The next moment, a rapid electric bell sounded in the warship!

That is class solidification.

This is the ringtone for war.

At the same time, his heartbeat was also beating violently.

Under the "Hammock System", everything became very fair, because the Navy stipulated the criteria for applying for the Naval University, that is, only the students who ranked in the top 20% of the contemporaries on the Hammock were eligible to apply.In addition, no matter what kind of family background you have, it is not easy to use.In other words, even if your own father is a powerful figure in the upper echelon of the empire, but you are ranked No. 1 among the contemporaries, then you will not be able to go to the Naval University, or you may have to be kicked out of the Naval Academy.But as long as your grades are good enough, even if you are a civilian with no background, you can get ahead in the navy on your own.

As we all know, in China, no matter where the official rank is involved, there will be "reverse elimination" such as cronyism and nepotism. The new ones can tell you the whole thing about commanding a warship with a note.

But you don't know, rigidity and inflexibility are his original intentions.

Yan Haipeng said in a tone without the slightest emotion.

Not only the first officer, but all the officers and non-commissioned officers on the bridge now stand upright with their chests respectful, even Zhu Zhenwu, the crown prince of the empire... no, the person in the navy who knows Zhu Zhenwu's identity is just a finger countable.Here he is just an ordinary soldier.

"Lieutenant Colonel Qi!"

Two Youzhou-class ships, four Nanhua-class ships, plus four armored cruisers, four protective cruisers and eight lightning strike ships cruised around the fleet.

The captain's answer made the atmosphere in the bridge suddenly tense.

Entering the first level of combat readiness too early will only consume the morale and physical strength of the soldiers in vain. Now that the commander of the fleet has put the battleship into combat mode, is it too early?
"Do you think it's too early?"

The officers and soldiers rushed to their posts, and hurriedly carried all the hammock mattresses and quilts into the fire prevention room.

Empire!
It is also a natural place for the rich and powerful. If there is no strict system, appointing newcomers and nepotism are simply normal.

This is really a powerful fleet.

Yan Penghai smiled and saw the naval lieutenant beside him——for Zhu Zhenwu, he valued him very much. He was born in Nanhua, his father was a company employee, and his mother was a housewife. No. 16 of the 12th period of the school.

Hammock Number System The Naval Academy determines the number of hammocks based on the academic performance of the students.This is the doctrine of Emperor Zhu, whose purpose is the same as that of Xiaori's invention of this system, and it is to solve the problem of "cronyism".

"This mobile attack is a rare opportunity. You must study hard. In the future, there will definitely be a captain or even a captain among you."

Fearing that those guys would also make notes about the main captain in the future, Emperor Zhu decided to introduce the "Hammock System" after much deliberation. One of the reasons why the navy is failing.

"Yes, sir!"

Everyone held their breath, waiting quietly for the captain to issue an order, and the entire bridge became silent for a while.

Because of this, for more than ten years, the Navy has long developed the habit of looking at the people employed by the Hammock. The ranking of Prince Zhu is a top 12th, so he is naturally trusted and respected by the officer as the focus of training.

What is class solidification!

Zhu Zhenwu, who was standing right next to the chart, could only feel a surge of hot blood rushing from the bottom of his heart, and the hot feeling spread all over his body in an instant, and at the same time, a tingling sensation like an electric shock was rushing towards The top of his head made his scalp tingle, and even his hair seemed to explode.

Zhu Zhenwu took a deep breath, and tried his best to restrain his excitement and accelerated heartbeat.

"Chief Fleet Meng is an old navy man, he knows how to do it."

Many people ridiculed the rigidity of the system because of the failure of the Little Days Navy, accusing it of not being able to "reduce talents without sticking to one pattern", which led to the failure of the Little Days Navy.But believe it or not, if it is "eclectic", the objects of that eclecticism are almost all the children of high-ranking officials.At that time, the son of the marshal will be the marshal, and the son of the general will be the general, but it will not be a joke, it will not be a joke.

Just as he finished speaking, a lookout suddenly reported loudly.

The "Hammock System" seems rigid, but it is the only option to break the rigidity.

This is the main force of the Empire's Atlantic Fleet!

Yan Penghai laughed.

Qi Mingfei tensed all his muscles, stood upright on the spot, puffed out his chest and replied loudly.

"Send my order!"

When Zhu Zhenwu cast his eyes on the fleet, Yan Penghai exhorted the young officers around him.

The "Hammock System" may be a bit rigid, but it's better than solidification of the class, and it's better than senior military and official positions being dominated by relatives of powerful children.

Zhu Zhenwu looked at the busy scene on the deck with interest, and he knew that other places on his ship must be the same.

Under this seemingly rigid "Hammock" system, it is basically a proof of the students' personal achievements. Only those who rank in the forefront can apply for the Naval University. It is impossible for military officers, and naturally it is even more impossible to enter the top ranks.The use of this system is to fundamentally eliminate the problem of cronyism, guide the employment atmosphere towards meritocracy, and evaluate talents based on their ability.

"The left wing found a smoke column at 320 degrees!"

"Say Cao Cao Cao Cao is here!"

Standing on the wide terrace at the top of the battleship bridge, he picked up the binoculars and looked at the American fleet that "welcomed" them, Yan Penghai sneered.

"Okay, here they come..."
