Genshin Impact: A Red Teyvat Life Starting from Zero

Neither of these types of people needs to be worried about too much.

The latter may not believe these things, nor care about the workers, but since he is in this position and stands under this banner, he has to keep up the act.

Otherwise, the higher you stand, the harder you fall.

As long as I've lived this life, it doesn't matter.

Even feigned feelings can be genuine.

Intelligent people should understand this principle.

Jiang Ming was somewhat surprised by Aoki's transfer.

He recommended Aoki as the production manager simply because he felt that Aoki would come to him with questions instead of blindly following orders, and this approach left a very good impression on him. He felt that Aoki was really suitable for the position of production manager.

After the uproar, he realized something was wrong, and after some investigation, he learned what Aoki had told people.

"Well, how should I put it, it was quite sudden."

He felt a little regretful again.

In this early, fledgling stage, people like Aoki might be better suited to stay at the grassroots level.

But will the chain reaction brought about by the promotion be good or bad?

Hard to comment.

Chapter 33 The Palette of Thoughts

"Therefore, in conclusion, I believe it is necessary to establish positions for ideological work in the newly formed military with firearms. Moreover, not only in the military, but also in the civilian population of Haiji Island, relevant positions should be established. For a specific example, you can refer to the newspaper office we have set up on Narukami Island."

A new day begins, and the old meeting continues inside the Coral Palace.

Meetings on how to expand and reorganize the Coral Palace have been going on for several days.

This is mainly to address the current staff shortage at the Coral Palace and to adapt to the new development situation.

Production, education, and publicity were separated and established as new departments.

The production department is established to meet the needs of modern industrial development, while the education department is currently primarily responsible for skills training, cultivating qualified and skilled workers.

The publicity work was also listed separately, simply because the current thoughts on Haigi Island are so chaotic that they resemble a palette.

Some people have an extreme faith in the serpent god and are determined to restore the glory of the serpent god.

There are people who simply come to Haizhi Island to seek refuge, and don't want to do anything.

There were those who simply wanted to resist the exploitation by the shogunate.

Some harbor illusions and try to avoid war.

Some people fight wars simply for their own peace.

There are also those who want to maintain the status quo and not change.

In terms of ideas, there are both good and bad aspects.

Their actions were equally varied.

Some planned to storm the castle tower and destroy the Raiden General.

Some groups do not want war and intend to engage in peace negotiations.

Some believed that they should march directly to Narukami Island, overthrow the shogunate, and take its place.

Fortunately, given the current situation on Haigi Island, there is no one advocating for unconditional surrender.

Various ideas clashed among the people of Haizhi Island, with those advocating different ideas feeling that the other was mentally challenged and completely uncommunicative.

And it wasn't just among the common people; within the Haiqi army, opinions were equally diverse.

The most typical ones are nothing more than three: the extreme snake god faction, the guardian faction, and the day people.

The former goes without saying; the so-called guardian faction actually joined the army to protect their relatively free life, which was not currently exploited by the shogunate, and to protect their families.

This is actually quite good, but like the extreme snake god faction, it belongs to the minority.

Most people are just living their daily lives.

I do whatever my superiors tell me to do, and if I can't do something, I just pass the buck. I'm the kind of person who just goes through the motions and does nothing but get by. I came to Haiqi Army purely to make a living.

Such a person seems quite easygoing and obedient, and might be fine in ordinary places, but in the military, especially in a war-torn army like the Haizhi Army, things are complicated.

In reality, they are no different from mercenaries.

Past conflicts have shown that the Sea Spirit Army in this state can fight with an advantage, but its morale will collapse when it is at a disadvantage.

They were far inferior to the Shogunate army.

These days, the main body of people are those who fled to Haiqi Island after the lockdown order, seeking only to survive. The Coral Palace Guard was reorganized and recruited these people.

The people responsible for training these new recruits to the Sea God Army were mainly former members of the Coral Palace Guard, and the majority of them were believers in the Serpent God.

These newly expanded sea-god armies have only received some military training so far, and their ideology has not changed.

They all came from regions under the rule of the shogunate and were not interested in worshipping snake gods.

Many people have not yet settled on Haegei Island; their families and friends may still be living in refugee camps, and they have no sense of belonging to Haegei Island.

It's no wonder they're just wasting their time.

Therefore, the current state of mind within the Sea God Army is complex and difficult to describe in a few words.

It would be difficult to expect such an army to defeat the Shogunate army.

The Shogunate army was relatively pure, with a unified belief in Narukami and a willingness to obey the commands of the Heavenly Rank.

Moreover, since the shogunate army is now the sword in Kujo Takayuki's hands, Kujo Takayuki still takes it very seriously.

No matter how hard things get, we can't let the Shogunate army suffer.

In terms of quality, the only force that could rival the Shogunate army head-on was the original Sangokyu Guard.

They are united in their belief in the snake god and obey the command of the "human god priestess". Limited resources are supplied to a limited army, which is relatively sufficient on average.

Unfortunately, the quantity was more than an order of magnitude smaller. After expansion, the quantity could be comparable, but the quality was still a far cry from that of the others.

Even if the Kaiji army, at this level, were equipped with firearms, it might not be able to defeat the Shogunate army.

On the contrary, they might become couriers, delivering equipment to the Shogunate army.

Even in relatively peaceful places on Earth where individual combat capabilities are roughly the same, this kind of thing happens frequently.

In Inazuma, a place where individual strength varies greatly, it's likely that an entire squad of armed sea warriors would be so frightened by a single strong samurai that they would turn and run away.

Therefore, Xin Hai decided to organize a new army on its own, drawing on some of the more capable personnel to equip it with firearms.

After all, this thing can be really powerful if used properly.

For an ordinary adult with equal equipment, it would be very difficult to fight the Shogunate army in a 1v1 situation.

After obtaining the Eye of God, one can immediately fight on equal terms with 3-5 well-trained Shogunate soldiers.

With training, one person can easily take on a dozen or twenty people, even a well-trained shogunate army squad.

This is roughly the upper limit for the vast majority of ordinary Eye of God holders.

Above that are those who already possess considerable strength and can unleash the full power of the Eye of God.

For example, Kujo Sara.

To defeat these highly skilled individuals, we need to gather more shogunate troops to form an army.

But those at this level are extremely rare.

An ordinary adult, without needing to obtain such a precious item as the Eye of God, only needs an automatic rifle and a little training to achieve a combat level equivalent to the upper limit of an ordinary Eye of God holder.

Even semi-automatic or bolt-action rifles can achieve the same result if operated properly.

But the premise is that they can perform well and make good use of their abilities, rather than going to the battlefield as deliverymen, being so frightened by a single charge from the Shogunate army that they lose their armor and turn around and run away.

Xin Hai's idea was to transfer some capable people, but Jiang Ming felt that wasn't enough.

With modern weapons, and no longer the lone-wolf combat of the era of God's Eye, teamwork and cooperation are even more important than in the age of cold weapons.

Otherwise, more people might die at the hands of their own people than at the hands of the enemy.

This requires discipline and strict adherence to orders within the military.

It is difficult to achieve this without a unified ideology.

There will be no adequate discipline, nor can a feasible command system be established.

Even the so-called free-spirited Twitter community knows to establish universal values ​​to unify thinking.

Therefore, Jiang Ming repeatedly demanded the establishment of relevant positions to unify the thinking within the Haizhi Army, or at least the newly established military force equipped with firearms.

At least let's stop appeasement and radical warmongers from directing each other.

This will also unify the current thoughts of the people on Haizhi Island, which can complement the idea of ​​unifying the Haizhi Army.

Unifying people's thoughts is always the most difficult task.

It's as difficult as putting your own ideas into someone else's head as it's as difficult to put someone else's money into your own pocket.

We must first establish a consensus, a consensus that most people can accept and agree with, and then gradually delve deeper.

This requires starting with people like Xin Haijiang and Ming, and making a call to action.

It became necessary for the propaganda agency to be separated into a separate department.

The most discussed topic in the meetings these past few days has been how to strike a balance between various ideas, how to unify them, and how to promote them in a way that resonates with the public.

Chapter 34 Eliminating the Tyranny of the Shogunate

Finding a balance between various ideas and unifying them seems to be a major challenge.
