Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 300 Give up the choice

Both the navy and the army had no choice but to give up their respective plans after being defeated by Purficott's words.

After all, the key to this matter is not how much they can invest, or how determined they are to do it, but whether Perficott wants to do these things.

She thought that, just like the thermobaric bomb, it could become a weapon for the empire to deter the entire world at any time.

She didn't want to think that letting the senior generals of the navy and army speak out would be of no use in the end.

Therefore, after their efforts to no avail, the senior generals of the navy and army did not continue to insist, but each reluctantly chose to leave.

"Members of the Crisis Response Committee, please stay for a moment. There are some things that need to be discussed." Seeing the lieutenant generals with lower military ranks taking the lead in walking out of his laboratory, Perficott suddenly seemed to remember something. The opening left some people behind.

Although other generals are curious about the Crisis Response Committee, a department that has always been ignored, they also know that there are some things that are not suitable for them to pry into.

Be aware that curiosity can kill the cat.

So these generals wisely left Purficott's laboratory, leaving only a few truly high-ranking members of the crisis response committee.

What are you thinking in your head? Are you really not considering practical issues at all and just thinking about how to expand your military and prepare for war all day long?

"I don't know what you think about it, or how you restrain your subordinates, but if this happens again next time a group of people block my laboratory, then you can explain it to His Majesty yourself! I will not serve you anymore. !" Seeing that all the irrelevant people had left, Perficott started to yell at them with full force: "They are not sensible, don't you understand? All the resources of the empire are now focused on the doomsday crisis, and you actually do it? Are you still thinking about building a flying battleship at this time?
Do you think the empire is too rich and you want to use up some of the 'extra' resources for the empire?

What a joke, all the empire's current plans to deal with the apocalyptic winter are centered around Purficott. She has given up and no one can take over this matter.

Moreover, a teenage girl is just a little girl of her own granddaughter or even a great-granddaughter, so what if an old man of several decades is scolded a few times?
But Purficott's last words, that she didn't care about, scared everyone.

Let me tell you, next time I will build a floating city and live in the sky, I will not care who cares about the ruins of the empire! "

It is only natural for her to be dissatisfied and want to curse at such a large group of people blocking her laboratory.

Purficott's work in technological research and development has also been transferred to various project research groups, while she still has time to work on flying knights.

Although at first glance, Perficott does not seem to be in charge of many things, most of the administrative work in the north is done by civilian officials. Just like most official departments in the empire, they rely on the empire's huge civilian staff. official system.

These veteran generals could calmly let her spray the first few sentences of Purfict. After all, it was normal for a genius of Purfict's level to be a little arrogant.

At first glance, it seems that it is not impossible to live without Purficott, but in fact, no matter from every aspect, the empire really cannot live without her.

The entire Northern Territory Development Plan was presided over by Purficott, and she was the one who compiled everything.

Although the expansion plan in the north seems to be on the right track now, and the empire's administrative agencies can continue to operate this plan even without Purficott's supervision, but...then what? They knew that Perficott planned to build shelters under each settlement to withstand the cold erosion in the final winter.

But how should this shelter be repaired? All they have is a design drawing of the shelter and a shield machine that is still in the experimental stage.

Other than that, there is nothing, no details of any follow-up plans, not even an outline of follow-up plans.

If Purficott gives up now and the empire finds someone to take over the northern expansion plan, it is indeed not a big problem to continue to immigrate to the north. Anyway, just continue to copy Purficott's current model.

But how to resettle these people after they are sent to the north? The empire did not send them here to open up a colony, but to establish a shelter in the north to survive the final winter.

To put it mildly, this was the Ark in the Great Flood, and Perficott was the one who built the Ark.

As for others, they may be able to take charge of part of the work, or even build certain parts of the Ark, but in the end the person who can assemble the entire Ark must be Perficott.

But now, other people in the empire have not even built a certain part of the Ark. They don't even have an idea of ​​what the Ark looks like.

Do you expect such a person to take over Purficott's plan? The military bosses can only say that you are overthinking. Not everyone can do this kind of thing. Even the crisis response committee itself does not have this ability.

Just kidding, if they had this ability, they wouldn't have been unable to come up with a decent response plan a year ago.

So when Purficott said that he was giving up his job, the top brass of both the navy and the army panicked. Grandpas in their 70s and 80s tried to soothe Purficott's emotions like they were coaxing their own granddaughters.

"Little Brandless, please calm down, we know we were wrong! The empire can't do without you now, don't really give up just because of this!" The Army General hurriedly comforted Purficott. , and also took out everything he could: "If you are unhappy with anything, just ask, and if you need anything from us old guys, just say it!"

If you are really unhappy, just open your mouth to hit or scold anyone. Even if it is a country you want to massacre, as long as you say, we will go back to war mobilization now, you must not give up! "

Yes, in the eyes of these old generals, as long as Purficott wanted to, even starting a war and destroying a country was just a small matter.

After all, the empire's military power is now powerful enough to defeat or even destroy any country in the world. If the military had not been threatened by the doomsday winter, it would have been ready to conquer the world by now.

In fact, after defeating the Three Kingdoms and taking control of their lands, the Empire has de facto ruled the entire Old World.

You must know that these three countries, together with the Victoria Empire, are basically the strongest countries in the old world. Even if other countries can compete, after the empire has controlled the other three countries, there is no one that can compete with the Victoria Empire. Qualified to sit on equal footing.

So if Purficott is willing, destroying one or two countries by the military just to make her happy is something these old men can really do.
