Leaving Marshal Satietin's office, the two returned directly to the fleet. Before he was officially appointed chief of the Navy's General Staff, Liao Hanxiang had to stay in the Fifth Fleet. Of course, the news spread quickly, and it must have been great news for the officers and men of the Fifth Fleet.

According to the tradition of the Imperial Navy, the Chief of Staff of the Navy will most likely be the next Commander of the Navy, and it was when Saditin was promoted from Chief of Staff of the Navy to Commander of the Navy. And the only person who can serve as the chief of staff of the Navy is the fleet commander of the major fleets, which is one of the main reasons why the fleet commander is very popular. The qualifications of the commanders of the major fleets to serve as chiefs of staff of the navy will be judged by the performance of each fleet. Guo Xianzhong was the commander of the First Fleet before the last war. Of course, the commander of which fleet becomes the chief of staff of the Navy basically means that this fleet is the most powerful fleet of the Imperial Navy.

"What should I do now?" Although Tan Renhao has been working with Ji Xiaobin for more than two years (one and a half years studying abroad), he is still not very familiar with the position of operational staff officer.

"You take some time to communicate with Ji Xiaobin and ask him to explain some important things to you. That's not your main job for the past two days, though. Liao Hanxiang obviously also regarded the Fifth Fleet as his "home": "You know what Marshal Sajting needs, and you are also familiar with what we can do, so let's combine the two and see what we can do to satisfy the marshal, understand?" ”

Tan Renhao frowned slightly, this is an exam paper without exam questions.

"You'll go to the Navy Staff tomorrow, there's a reference room there, and you can quickly learn the latest news." Liao Hanxiang's words were fast, as if he was rushing for time, "Of course, you can bring those two assistants of yours, and if you feel it is necessary, I can be the first to provide them with a chance to be promoted." ”

Tan Renhao nodded, it is necessary to promote Hao Dongjue and Chang Jianxin. If you want to have direct access to some important documents, you must at least be a major officer, and the lieutenant does not have direct access to the classified documents of the navy, but must be authorized. Of course, Tan Renhao has not forgotten another person.

"Commander Liao, can I have someone?"

"Alone?" Liao Hanxiang glanced at Tan Renhao next to him.

"Captain Lei Shaoqing of the Southwest Fleet, he is an alumnus of me, and he was one of the top ten in our current period, and he studied with us at the Chengdu Flight Command College, and he also knows a lot about aviation operations."

Liao Hanxiang frowned slightly. "If he's still alive, then I'll transfer him, of course, he'll have to be willing."

Tan Renhao smiled and nodded, he had promised Lei Shaoqing that as long as he became an operational staff officer, he would find a way to transfer him to the Fifth Fleet. In the fleet, only those who have become operational staff officers are qualified to make requests for VIPs, while ordinary staff officers do not have this qualification.

Soon, the two returned to the fleet, and then Liao Hanxiang summoned the main staff officers of the fleet, as well as the captains of each ship, and announced that he had been appointed chief of staff of the navy, Wu Xianyu would take over as commander of the Fifth Fleet, Ji Xiaobin would be the chief of staff of the fleet, and Tan Renhao would be the new operational staff of the fleet, and concurrently served as the chief of staff of aviation operations. If it was in normal times, it would definitely be necessary to celebrate, but this time Liao Hanxiang did not do any celebrations. After announcing the news, he called Wu Xianyu and Liao Hanxiang and returned to his command cabin with Tan Renhao.

"That's what Marshal Saitin roughly meant." Liao Hanxiang first explained the task assigned by Marshal Sajiting, "Our time is very tight, tomorrow I will go to the Navy Staff to serve, Chief of Staff Wu, no, it should be Commander Wu, the affairs of the fleet will be arranged by you, no problem, right?" ”

"Lao Liao, you're laughing at me." Wu Xianyu smiled awkwardly, "Don't worry, I will let the fleet enter the battle state as quickly as possible, although the morale of the officers and soldiers has been affected a little, but I believe that it will not be long before they will take active action." ”

Liao Hanxiang nodded, and his gaze turned to Ji Xiaobin. "Xiaobin, you have to tell Colonel Tan Renhao about some things that the combat staff officer should pay attention to, and also, the repair work of the 'Taizu' must be paid attention to, what is the reply of the shipyard?"

"It will take at least five days, and most of the workers have not yet returned, and the facilities at the Zhoushan shipyard are not very perfect, so the progress is not fast."

"That's five days, but you have to keep an eye on it, and if you can shorten the time, you have to keep it as short as possible." Liao Hanxiang let out a sigh, this was his last order in the Fifth Fleet, "Now, the enemy has put the knife on our necks, whether to fight or not, it is up to us to decide, but we can decide how to fight, how to teach the little devil a lesson." Ladies and gentlemen, the only thing the Imperial Navy can use now is our Fifth Fleet, and I hope that the Fifth Fleet will bring hope to the Imperial Navy and create miracles for the Empire. ”

Tan Renhao deeply sympathizes with this sentence. Judging from the current war situation, Japan has basically gained sea supremacy in the western Pacific region, from the Java Sea to the Solomon Sea, and then to the eastern waters of the Ryukyu Islands, all of which have fallen under the control of the Japanese Navy, while some islands and ports that are still under the control of the Empire are already embattled. What is even more serious is that almost all of the Empire's access to the sea has been blocked by the Japanese Navy, and if the Fifth Fleet wants to support the backbone of the Imperial Navy, it needs to create a miracle, create a big miracle.

Outside, Hao Dongjue and Chang Jianxin were waiting to talk about Renhao. Seeing Tan Renhao come out, the two immediately greeted him, and Hao Dongjue asked a little excitedly: "Renhao, is everything that the commander announced at the beginning true?" ”

"Of course it's true, you think General Liao Hanxiang is joking?" Tan Renhao laughed, "Don't worry, I haven't forgotten you, when General Liao Hanxiang goes to the Navy Staff, you will be a major officer." ”

"We!?"

At this point, the two of them were even more incredulous, but they quickly reacted, and then the two hugged each other and laughed, becoming a naval lieutenant, which was less than a percent chance among naval lieutenants.
