Experiment Successful

Saruman acted swiftly, relying on the existing core of the Operations Staff Department, and quickly completed the preparations for the establishment of the two War Department.

After the final project was awarded to Victor was very satisfied with it. He simply made some minor adjustments to the heads of a few departments, and soon the news of the establishment of the Army War Department and the Navy War Department spread throughout the territory.

Apart from a few Regimental Commander who had learned the details early in internal meetings, senior officers in the armies of other territories were full of curiosity about the two newly established departments, especially since many had already received appointment notices from the War Department.

However, what everyone is most concerned about is the selection of the Minister of the Army War Department. In their view, this position is very important, as the Navy is still too small compared to the Army.

Although the Army War Department is no longer the superior unit of the territory's army, high-ranking officers at the level of regimental Regimental Commander and deputy Regimental Commander are still personally appointed by Victor.

However, the position of Minister of the Army War Department is still slightly higher than that of Regimental Commander. If a Regimental Commander were to hold this position concurrently, it would inevitably reflect his status within the Golden Sunflower Family Private Army system.

After all, the Regimental Commander of each regiment were all equally matched due to their seniority and combat achievements.

However, when the candidate for the Army War Department was announced, everyone felt it was only natural, since the Marquis's father, Baron Wembley, was indeed the most suitable candidate.

Victor also bestowed another title upon his father, but this time it was not a substantive title, but an honorary title of Court Noble. Now, the Baron Wembley could be called the Viscount Wembley.

The Minister of the Navy War Department was directly appointed by Jack Bigleaf. With the appointment of the two War Department, the two departments began to work. A large number of active-duty officers held both military and War Department positions, and the territory was bustling with activity. However, Victor's attention was no longer on this.

Inside the research institute on the outskirts of Wood Fort Town, Victor and Veronica sat together. Veronica looked somewhat nervous. Seeing this, Veronica quickly took Victor 'Veronica hand and said, "You and your student have prepared for so long, I believe you will succeed!"

You need to have some faith in them!

Veronica: "We can't afford to be complacent. This experiment has basically used up all of the institute's budget for the year, depleted the copper mine's reserves, and even affected the minting of new coins in the territory. If it fails, the losses will be enormous!"

Victor: "As I said before, although you have my guidance and the technical materials I provided as a foundation, research and experimentation are never smooth sailing. You started from scratch, and it's normal to encounter bottlenecks now, since things went smoothly at first!"

Victor's words of comfort warmed Veronica's heart. She leaned closer to Victor, and the two began to enjoy the quiet moment.

Just then, a sudden cheer broke the surrounding silence.

Immediately following was a flurry of hurried, powerful footsteps approaching from afar.

Victor and Veronica exchanged glances, their eyes gleaming with barely suppressed excitement.

Undoubtedly, such enthusiastic cheers signify that the experiment has been a success.

A moment later, several figures rushed into the room; the newcomers were Veronica's research assistants and students.

The young woman leading the group was none other than Octavia.

At this moment, her pretty face was filled with the joy of victory, as beautiful and radiant as a flower blooming in spring.

She strode forward and went straight to Victor and Veronica, excitedly saying, "My Marquis and Teacher, we have successfully received the signal from the Sea Song Town Group and decoded it."

The sea around Sea Song Town was calm and peaceful, exactly as agreed.

Our newly developed underwater telegraph cable and high-power transmitter have both been successfully developed!

Victor took a deep breath and stepped forward to the group. "Take me to see!"
