Chapter 165: Robin's Decision (I)

At the beginning of the meeting, Robin announced a series of appointments from the Ministry of Republican ** in the Magnetic Stack.

Since the fleet information brought back by Daisy already included the fleet personnel composition and related personnel files collected by Yalvis, the official appointment of the military had almost no change in position, basically maintaining the original composition of the officers at all levels under Robin's command, and rewarding them in the form of promotions.

From a practical point of view, Robin's fleet is far from the mainland of the Republic, and this kind of promotion of military rank is actually of little practical significance, and it is no different from a verbal commendation. But for Yalvis and them, the appointment meant something completely different. Prior to this, everyone's military ranks, including Robin, were basically self-appointed during the reorganization of the army.

Take Robin as an example, although he has always worn the rank of brigadier general in the fleet, Robin is still only a Xiaoxiao infantry captain in the personnel record of the Republican ** Department. Therefore, when the military department recognized their self-appointed rank and gave them a promotion on this basis, it was a sign that the republic recognized the merits of their establishment, an honor that no soldier could ignore.

After reading out the promotions of all the officers and men of the fleet, Robin glanced at the surprised looks on everyone's faces, and said calmly: "I will transfer this position file to Brigadier General Jarvis after the meeting, and file it in the database of the General Staff. As for the official promotion of military ranks and the replacement of epaulettes, they are arranged by Lieutenant Colonel Bouz of the Logistics Department. ”

"Yes~" Jarvis sat down with a salute and a smile in his heart.

"I won't say anything about General Patton's verbal commendation other than the promotion of the personnel. Now, I'm going to talk about the operational orders issued by the Ministry of the Republican **, as well as the control of the territories under our command. ”

“……”

Hearing Robin mention the battle orders and territorial control of the Republican ** Ministry, the joyful looks on the faces of everyone present suddenly froze.

At present, if the fleet under Robin is compared with the main fleet of the regular army of the Republic, it cannot even be called an independent fleet at all, at best, it can only be called an independent transport fleet escorted by exclusive warships. Of course, if Robin is given enough time, then he is likely to build a true army fleet in one to two years.

But everyone is afraid that the Republican ** Ministry will not give Robin so much time, but ask Robin to lead the fleet to fight immediately as a surprise army now, which will definitely be a catastrophe for the current fleet.

Similarly, Robin must face a severe test in the control of the territory under the command of the fleet. After all, the current fleet is still in the territory of the Federation, and the territory under his command is obtained by Robin through various means, and in terms of governance, it basically follows the usual governance model of the Federation, and even has a very close cooperative relationship with some consortiums or individuals in the Federation. If the Republic forcibly requires Robin to govern in accordance with the Republic's governance at this time, even if the Federal Military does not interfere, the Free Citizens and Federalists in the territory will definitely lead to large-scale violence*, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Therefore, when the joy of promotion gradually cooled down, and when everyone began to consider the practical problems and the political differences between the two places, their faces immediately became very ugly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the star charts and related data I have listed are a comparison of the military strength of the enemy and us in the Battle of Pluto." Robin zoomed in on the Pluto and Kuiper rings, pointing to several areas marked in red, explaining: "Of the four Xiao planets in the Pluto Galaxy, Kamiya, China, and Charon have fallen in July 2o82, and only Pluto is still resisting under the command of Army Commander Lieutenant General Aldrich. In the high-sea channel area near the Pluto system, the Republic has gathered almost all seven group-type integrated fleets, relying on the Xiao planetary belt in the edge of the Pluto galaxy to defend the danger, barely maintaining a stalemate with the Federation's main fleet. As for the Kuiper ring region at the far end of the Pluto system, it has become a purely hostile zone. The federal military has built numerous temporary munitions factories on many large celestial bodies, built them into a logistics production center, and set up a large number of patrol fleets based on the destroyed space fortress of Marseille to prevent the Republic from infiltrating this logistics area in the form of small forces. ”

"Could it be that General Patton is planning for us to come out of the Barnard system and sneak attack the Federation logistics base in the Kuiper Ring, so as to cut off the supply of the Federalist frontline troops?" After hearing Robin mention the above points, Yalvis, who was the chief of staff, immediately guessed the battle order that General Patton might give.

"Yes~" Robin nodded to confirm Jarvis's guess, and shook his head helplessly: "This is indeed General Patton's combat order to us, from the standpoint of the republican side, his tactical plan is not impossible to achieve." Although our fleet is weak, the Federation Army did not envision that there would be fleets from alien systems to reinforce the Republic, so the defense from the rear was not sufficient. If we do our best, even if we can't completely destroy the logistics supply base of the Federal Expeditionary Force, we can at least destroy some of them, so that the front-line troops of the Federal Expeditionary Force will face the problem of material shortage, and help the frontal battle of the Republic fleet from the side. ”

"So...... Do you want us to be death squads? Lieutenant Colonel Barron, who was in charge of the Trailblazer space station, asked coldly with a frown.

"We'll talk about that later." Robin glanced at Lieutenant Commander Barron and did not give an exact answer, but instead diverted the topic to the issue of the governance of the fleet's territories.

"In addition to military directives, in terms of territorial governance, the High Command of the Republic requires us to fully follow the instructions of the central computer. As long as it is inserted into the motherboard of our main computer stack, the chip in the stack will work on its own, transforming our master computer into a full-fledged central computer extension. As long as we build a cross-galaxy leaping information platform to meet the needs of data transmission, then the instructions of the central computer can be directly transmitted here, and take over the governance of all the territories on our behalf......"

"This can't be~" Before Robin's words were finished, Chief of Staff Jarvis couldn't help but stand up and object: "With the current situation, how can we all adopt the governance model of the republic. At present, the spaceyard of the Charon Space Fortress has begun the research and manufacture of new warships, although the main responsible persons are Jack and Van Lundine, the two technicians of the Republic, but most of the people involved in the construction work are Martina? Byron Xiao and Sean? Most of the freemen employed by Mr. Alex were provided with the relevant technology. And they are still holding the position of members of the autonomous region, if they are all taken over by the central computer during this period, I really can't imagine what the consequences will be~"

"Yes, the current situation does not allow us to make a wide range of adjustments. Even if Sister Martina Xiao chooses to forbear because of the chief, there will be a big 1uan on the side of Wendini planet. After all, we still maintain a close relationship with the DuPont family, and most of the ground bases on Wendini's planet are guarded by self-defense forces composed of mercenaries and freedmen from the Federation. They are willing to stay here because of the pre-emption enacted by the Federal Congress, and if the central computer takes over and deprives it of all this, perhaps they will take up arms against us. Xia Zuo, who was inside the H-1 military fort, also agreed with Yárvis.

“……”

When the two staff officers expressed their opposition, everyone present suddenly held their breath nervously, and looked at the main seat with uneasy speculation... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
