Zefa's words confirmed his determination.
The mood behind them was obviously much higher. They were no longer as dejected as before. As they toasted, the atmosphere was unusually warm.
After drinking a glass of wine, Zayen patted his head and took out an envelope from his pocket.
"I almost forgot about this. Teacher, take a look."
The envelope was handed to Zefa, but he didn't open it. He simply placed it on the table and smiled.
"You're so mysterious. Tell me, what did you write?"
"Lieutenant General Douberman sent someone to give me this letter. He said it was a letter of advice written by General Sakasugi. There must be two of them. One for me, and the other one."
"Hmph, it's for the Warring States Period, right?"
Zefa narrowed his eyes, his face slightly flushed.
Zayen nodded with a serious expression.
The core of this so-called recommendation letter only had one content, which was to persuade him to serve in the Navy Branch G1.
The G1 naval base was located in the second half of the Great Sea Route, which was in the New World. After the war, the naval headquarters moved from Malinfando to G1, which showed its status.
Now, G1 was the strongest of all the naval branches in the navy, and the one under the greatest pressure. If one were to use the words of his previous life, he would be the vanguard before the war, the border between the two countries.
Different from the first half of the great sea route, G1 faced the four emperors directly. It was the base with the highest risk, the highest mortality rate, and the highest annual military achievements among all the naval bases, including the headquarters.
Every year, among the newly promoted soldiers and officers in the navy, almost three-fifths of them were from G1. It could be said to be the biggest " cradle of military achievements " in the navy.
At the same time, G1 was firmly controlled by the Hawk Faction. The entire G1 was the Hawk Faction's paradise, and what the Hawk Faction wanted to do was to turn all the naval bases into G1 branches.
The letter to him first praised him, then said that a good man should make contributions. The tone of the letter was like the encouragement and guidance of the elders to the younger generation.
The letter to the Marshal of the Warring States Period should have a lot of content.
Regardless, this letter clearly and strongly revealed that the Navy Headquarters 'General Sakasugi, also known as the Red Hound Hawk Faction, had already sent him an invitation.
They hoped that this talented member of the new generation, who had just shown his brilliance and had great potential, would join the Hawk Faction.
The higher-ups of the navy saw Zen's performance, but it was clear that only the Red Hound was as swift and decisive as ever. He had seized the opportunity to make a move so quickly and was the first to rope him in.
"Sakasugi is as decisive as ever. What do you think?”
Zefa's tiger eyes flickered, and he didn't look like an old man at all.
"I want to hear your suggestion, Teacher."
Zeon looked expectant as he quietly waited for Zefa's answer.
Zefa chuckled and his eyes softened. He was quite pleased with Zen's attitude.
He thought for a moment and said seriously," This letter is undoubtedly the Red Hound's olive branch to you. Before I talk about my thoughts, I want to ask you first. Do you know the Hawk Faction and the Dove Faction in the navy?”
Zefa's inquiry was very cautious, because the Hawk Faction and Dove Faction's statements were mostly circulated among the higher-ups. Most of the soldiers at the grassroots level and the younger generation did not know that the Hawk Faction and Dove Faction existed in the navy.
Or rather, it wasn't clear.
This was because the higher-ups didn't want this disagreement to widen and cause the entire navy to split from top to bottom. That would be tantamount to fighting a civil war.
The higher-ups were fighting, but they still strictly controlled their boundaries.
Zayen nodded calmly. Although this was the first time he had heard this saying, his experience and plot from his previous life had already told him everything.
" The reason why we don't publicize it is to maintain the overall stability of the navy. With your current potential, you will know sooner or later."
Zefa was not surprised. He sighed and continued,
"Alright, since you already know, I won't waste my breath."
" The Red Hound is the representative of the Hawk Faction, and G1 is the Hawk Faction's territory. If you ask me, I can only say that G1 is one of the few naval bases that still maintain the old naval tradition."
" The atmosphere and atmosphere there are different from the lifeless atmosphere in the headquarters, and it's also different from the playfulness of any naval base. It can be said that G1 is ranked second in the navy in terms of top-level combat power, but in terms of overall combat power, especially in terms of grassroots combat power, it's definitely the navy's number one."
" G1 is set in the New World, and the Four Kings are entrenched on the side. All kinds of pirates are constantly coming and going. It can be said to be a place of great risk in the true sense of the word. However, risks come with benefits. With potential like yours, you shouldn't hide in a greenhouse. You should go to the battlefield and experience real blood and fire.”
Zefa slowed down, drank some wine to quench his thirst, and continued,
" Moreover, although Red Hound is a bit stubborn, he is clear about public and private matters. He is never greedy for credit. Under him, you might be promoted to a general soon."
"So, Teacher, are you suggesting that I go?”
Zayen's expression did not change as he stared at Zefa.
However, Zefa shook his head and sighed."I'm just helping you analyze the advantages of being in G1. There are also many disadvantages."
"Oh? I wish to hear the details."
Zayen's eyes lit up as he asked.
He knew that Zefa would never approve of him joining the Hawk Faction, because if he did, Zefa's idea of changing the naval situation would be in vain. However, Zefa still wanted to hear what his teacher had to say.
"First of all," Zefa raised a finger and said solemnly," If you had accepted the Hawk Faction's offer, you would never have become a Great General. At least, you wouldn't have been able to become a Great General during the Red Hound General's term of office."
" Secondly, by accepting the roping in, you are submitting to others. You will be restricted in all aspects. You will no longer be the leader, but a follower. From what I can see, you brat are an extremely proud fellow. This second point is the most important to you."
" Hehehe, no, I'm still very shy and reserved."
Zayen scratched his head and said awkwardly.
"Ha!"
Zefa sneered and picked up his glass to drink.
"So, Teacher, what do you think?”
Zayen rubbed his hands and asked.
Zefa rolled his eyes."Didn't I say it clearly just now? Moreover, you are very bad. You have already decided long ago, yet you still want to ask this old man's opinion."
Zayen's eyes lit up. It seemed that although his teacher was a little old, his thoughts were not vague at all.
That's right. Those who could survive until now in the first generation were not simple people.
Even the old man Karp was a man who hid his strength.
"This old man is done talking. It's your turn. Come, let this old man hear what you have in mind. Or rather, what plans do you have?”
This time, it was Zefa's turn to ask questions.
Zayen also learned to drink a glass of wine first. When Zefa's gaze became a little impatient, he said seriously,
"Teacher, actually, I'm very similar to you. We're both the kind of people who would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix."
"If I cannot freely express my will, then I have lived in vain."
"Therefore, I refuse to take a position. I want to be the one who decides the position!”
