Chapter 748: Recruit Veteran
The number of ninjas is not the only criterion for judging the overall combat strength of a country, and Lei Luo wants to expound such a point of view.
Of course, he didn't mean to hit the confidence of his subordinates, but he noticed that Makoto Uzumaki and Lu Jiu's attitudes were a little fluttering when they spoke, so he reminded him, so as not to let the pride and arrogance fill the brains of the higher-ups.
Any ninja in the Fire Nation can be proud and can despise their enemies, but only here, not the few people sitting in this room.
Hearing what Lei Luo wanted to express, Makoto Uzumaki and Lu Jiu stopped the smile on their faces one after another, and their expressions became serious again, at this time, Fu Yue suddenly spoke:
"Hokage-sama, the root ninja has long dealt with various dangerous tasks in the country, and his per capita strength is at least above the elite, and he has extremely rich combat experience."
"After the restructuring, the root also has the previous rules that annihilated humanity, loyalty can be guaranteed, if you are worried about the combat power of the ninjas at the bottom......"
"Why don't you send some of them to integrate into the troops of our country's major military regions, as grassroots or middle-level commanders, and use veterans to lead new recruits to enhance the overall combat effectiveness?"
Fu Yue's method sounds good, during the war, the domestic stability maintenance work does not need the root elite to go out, and good steel really has to be used on the blade, Lei Luo frowned and thought for a while.
Then, before he could answer, Hinata spoke first:
"Fuyue, how many people are there on your side?"
Maybe it was because Hinata's question was too abrupt, Fu Yue looked slightly stunned, and only reacted after a while, and replied:
"There are more than 100 upper forbearances, and more than 800 intermediate forbearances."
There is no forbearance, this is the root of today.
It is worth mentioning that at this level, it is uniformly classified as a ninja on the current occasion, because this meeting refers to the combat effectiveness of ninjas, and no other factors are considered.
"There are more than 300 ninjas in my intelligence department, and most of them are on missions abroad, if you want to be sent to the ninja army as a commander, why don't you choose a more experienced ninja from the intelligence department to do it?"
One root, one intelligence department, occupies a total of more than four hundred upper ninja places, almost half of the total number of all upper ninjas in the Fire Country.
In addition, most of the ninjas in these two departments are from Konoha and a small number of people from the military region are basically the best ninjas in the military region.
The root and intelligence department are probably the gathering place of the high-level ninja forces of the Fire Country, and the two department leaders of Hyuga Huan and Fuyue are naturally unwilling to treat their subordinates badly at this moment, when Lei Luo seems to be preparing to promote veterans aggressively.
If you can fight for it, you must do your best to fight for it.
Seeing this situation, Lei Luo couldn't help but look embarrassed, but it was different from what Fuyue and Hinata thought about, and the place where Lei Luo was embarrassed was not whether to promote the root ninja or the ninja of the intelligence department, but ......
Excluding 25,000 production ninjas, there are more than 80,000 combat troops.
Even if all the upper ninjas of the Intelligence Department and the root department are sent out to be commanders, one person commands a detachment of 36 people, but more than 400 upper ninjas, a total of 14,000 people are enough to command 14,000 people, what about the remaining 70,000 people?
What's more, the root department is responsible for maintaining domestic order, and anti-corruption and counter-espionage work has to be done, and it is impossible to send all the upper ninjas to command the troops, and the same goes for the intelligence department, after all, Lei Luo doesn't want to give up the precious intelligence channels that have been built with great difficulty abroad.
"In this way, regarding the appointment of personnel, the general direction is still to uphold the principle of the past, those who have military merits in the past will be promoted first, and those who have no combat merits will be promoted based on their training achievements in peacetime, as for the intelligence department and the root department, these two parts are ......."
"Fuyue, Huan, I know what you two mean, it's not that the hard-working and high-ranking ninja under your hands can't be promoted, but it can't affect the normal operation of these two important departments, this matter is ......"
"Watergate, arrange this as soon as you get back to the village."
After Ye Naiyu handed over the position of Hokage to Watergate, there was no sign of returning to Konoha after a few months, but he followed Lei Luo all day long, and in desperation, Lei Luo had no choice but to acquiesce to Ye Naiyu's appointment to Water Gate.
Anyway, Watergate is also his own person, and it is good to contact the work of the Hokage in advance, so it should be regarded as a warm-up, and it is estimated that when the war is over, Watergate has made enough achievements and prestige, and he must be able to justify the fifth generation of the upper rank.
At that time, the world will be unified and the world will be peaceful, and he Lei Luo should naturally enjoy life, be his prime minister with peace of mind, and devote more time and resources to improve his strength.
It's really tiring to manage too much.
"Okay, teacher."
There was no doubt about Mizumon, and he decisively took on this task, which was very troublesome at first glance, reflecting a very high political consciousness, and the whirlpool on the side was amazed, and Fugaku and Hinata glanced at each other with a deep meaning.
"Next thing, equipment."
Lu Jiu quickly came back to his senses from his state of thinking, trembled unconsciously, cheered up, and maintained the speed of reporting the number of ninjas at the beginning, and a series of data came out of his mouth:
"Hokage-sama, 1,200 cannons and 2 million detonator shells are all in place."
"In addition, there are 500,000 sets of new-style ninja armor produced by various private enterprises, 135.69 million kunai, 281.43 million shuriken, 1.5677 million Type 2 food pills, and 5,400 sealing scrolls......"
"All of the above combat materials have been delivered."
"In addition, there are countless ninja equipment produced by private companies and flowing into the market that have been bought by domestic ninjas, and the specific amount cannot be counted."
After saying the above long list of words in one breath, Lu Jiu gasped several times in a row, and coughed a few times with an uncomfortable face, attracting the admiring eyes of everyone present.
This memory ......
He is worthy of being a genius with an IQ of more than 200.
Lei Luo pondered for a moment, and was about to say a few words, but unexpectedly, Lu Jiu slowed down for a while, and then added:
"Hokage-sama, because of the artillery production, the cabinet really can't come up with the money, so Prime Minister Shou has mobilized Konoha's one billion taels of reserve funds, and I hereby let me say hello to you."
Greet? The production is over, now say hello?
The ...... of the management of Konoha finance
Noticing Lei Luo's unkind gaze, Watergate's heart tightened, and he quickly pretended to smile bitterly and explained:
"Teacher, you have mentioned to me the importance of artillery many times before, so when Prime Minister Shou sent someone to explain the situation, I was afraid of delaying the production time, so I ......"
Waving his hand, indicating that he didn't mean to blame Shuimen, Lei Luo thought about it in his heart and quickly came to the conclusion:
One billion taels, 1,200 artillery pieces can be used for 700 million taels, and the remaining 300 million, Kageyama Mamoru doesn't seem to have any intention of returning it, that is to say, more than 300 million will be used by the cabinet for administration.
Forget it, Mamoru Kageyama is not a corrupt person, and it is also a good thing that this money is used to benefit the common people, so take it......
Merely...... robbed the cabinet and Congress all day long, but I didn't expect that my money would be robbed by others one day.
Thinking of this, Lei Luo grinned unconsciously, causing the shoulders of Shuimen, who had been observing him, to tremble, and a look of fear flashed on his face.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now that everything is ready, it is time to form the Wehrmacht and the General Staff and let the world see our strength!"
