>Axe nodded, “Good.
Go back and write a detailed plan for me.
I will let the Generals see your plan and if it is feasible, we’ll have you lead the operation.
After all, compared to any of us, you are the most familiar with the situation.”

Although George was a well-mannered person, he still couldn’t help but conceal the glee on his face upon hearing Axe.
He quickly gave a salute and said, “George thanks the Junior Patriarch for the promotion!”

Axe patted George’s shoulder and said, “I promoted you because I can see that you’re competent.
Alright, go and prepare.
Remember to call me Young Lord from now on.”

George became even happier.
One shouldn’t underestimate this name change.
The address ‘Junior Patriarch’ can be used by everyone to address Axe.
However, only a few people could call him by the name of Young Lord.
Only those with good relations with the O’neal family, the older generations, and trusted subordinates were able to call Axe this name.
Being able to address Axe this way was a sign of status.
For George, this was an extremely good news.

George happily replied, “Yes, Young Lord, I will go prepare right away.” After he said that, he turned and left.
Although he had already left Axe’s room, George was still very motivated.
His family wasn’t powerful, so everything he achieved up to this day was due to his hard work.
George was very familiar of the O’Neal family, judging by the fact that he had climbed his way up from being the lowest ranked soldier.
He knew that for people like him with no background, he would need to rely on powerful people.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to go far in life.

Axe giving his favor was akin to George getting a powerful backer.
What better backer was there other than the Junior Patriarch, the future leader of the O’Neal family? With the Junior Patriarch at his back, reaching his dream of being an official wouldn’t be that far off.

After looking at George’s departing back, Axe couldn’t’ help but smile faintly.
After having a deep understanding about the family’s matters, Axe knew how important it was to train competent subordinates.

Yes, the family already had loyal and devoted elder officials.
But because their qualifications were established long ago, it wasn’t certain that they would be by the Junior Patriarch’s side.
With the pressure of these elder official, people like George would find it hard to go high up the ladder.
So as long as Axe provided people like George with support, then they would be loyal and devoted to him.
They would become Axe’s personal strength, something that belonged to his own.

These were matters that his father had taught him.
Since his father was aware that Axe was coming here, he sent several young and capable men with no backgrounds along.
These people had been pressured by old officials.
Their statuses weren’t able to bring them to the rank of general.
Because of this, Axe would find it easier to command them.
At the same time, they would also do their best to curry favor with the Junior Patriarch.

Axe was very grateful for this procedure that his father had laid out.
He knew that his father was already paving the road for him in order to smoothly transition into the position of Patriarch.

After thinking about this, Axe couldn’t help but lightly sigh.
He turned and left to rest in his bedroom, the meal that the servant sent was left uneaten.

The next morning, just after Axe finished having his breakfast, a servant’s voice was heard, “Young Master, Captain George is asking for an audience.”

Axe nodded and said, “Let him in.” The servant complied as George walked in not long after.

Although George’s eyes were blood red, his facial expression shows that he was extremely motivated.
After seeing Axe, George immediately bowed and said, “Young Lord, I’ve finished the battle plan.
Please take a look at it.”

Axe looked at George and frowned, “George, have you been busy since yesterday evening? Didn’t I tell you to take a rest?”

After seeing Axe frown, George couldn’t help but stare and quickly replied, “Yes, I ask the Young Lord for forgiveness.
I’m afraid of causing the Young Lord’s mission to make mistakes.
So I worked overnight to finish the battle plan.”

Axe looked at George and sighed, “George, don’t do this in the future.
The battle plan isn’t an immediately need.
You need to take care of your body.
The only thing you truly own is your body.
You can contribute more in the future.
When the time comes, I don’t want your body to be unwell if I need you.”

As soon as he heard this, George’s expression loosened.
Then he gave a sharp bow and said, “Yes, Young Lord.
This George thanks the Young Lord for the concern.”

Axe nodded and said, “Leave the plan behind.
You go back and rest well.
Come to me after.
Go.” George nodded before he placed the plan on the table.
Then he gave Axe a salute and left.

When George left, Axe took the battle plan and gave it a glance.
After a while, a smile couldn’t help but appear on Axe’s face.

George’s battle plan was very good.
It was very detailed and had considered a lot of aspects.
The combat process was divided into several parts.
The first part was the attack.
The main goal was to break through the spatial rift’s defensive line.

The second part was seizing the defensive line.
Upon doing so, they would be able make a counter-attack on the enemy.

The third part was exploiting their victory.
After defending their ground, they would immediately send the energy cannons and war tanks in to attack the other party through the fog.
This way, they would be able to see what lies behind.

It can be said that the plan was beautifully made.
The first step was very clear and George even calculated how much people they would need.
It included the estimated time it would take, their route of action, and reactions to certain levels of progress.
If the enemy strongly resisted, then the battle plan would describe how to deal with it.
All these things were carefully considered.
Axe was very satisfied with the report.

Axe only gave George a small opportunity, but who would’ve thought that George would bring in such a huge surprise.
Although this was only a battle plan, one could see a lot of things from it.
With how well it was made, it showed the calibre of George’s skill.
For Axe, this was very important.

Finding a thousand soldiers was easy, but looking for a good talent was very difficult.
Those with talent are extremely crucial to any military.
At this point, George became more valuable in Axe’s eyes.
