Chapter 10: Forced to do something
"So, how much money do I have to pay back?" Qin Ge asked the Prince of Wales speechlessly. Although he was very depressed now, the best way to solve the problem now was to stay in the Commander Academy, and then when he met Xu Xin later, he would blackmail him for a lot of money.
"Not much, just over 3 million Donghuang coins." Prince of Wales said in a relaxed tone.
"Huh? More than 3 million Donghuang coins? It would be better to just kill me... Besides, why is the garden so expensive?" Qin Ge said with his mouth wide open. He finally understood why Xu Xin ran away after attending the graduation ceremony . More than 3 million Donghuang coins, when will he be able to pay it back?
The Donghuang coins in this world are basically the same value as the currency in his original world. The average person earns 4,000 to 5,000 Donghuang coins a month. Although the commander's allowance can be higher, it is not that high. The monthly allowance is only 10,000 Donghuang coins. He can pay off 3 million Donghuang coins in 25 years without eating or relying on the allowance. It is really better to kill him.
"That garden was cultivated with flower seeds brought from the Royal Family when my friend from the Royal Family came to visit me in Donghuang. The fish in it are also cultivated there. You also know how difficult it is to get from the Royal Family to Donghuang nowadays, so 3 million is definitely not a small amount." Prince of Wales explained to Qin Ge.
“……” Qin Ge was speechless.
"Young man, don't be so unconfident. It's just 3 million Donghuang coins. And you can choose not to pay it back. It's just that you can't be a commander. There is no difference. It's good to be an ordinary person." Prince of Wales said with a smile.
If he is not a commander, he will not be able to contact the ship girls. If he cannot contact the ship girls, he will not know why they have the historical memory and name of their own world. However, this world has appeared, and he cannot find a way to go home. So he gave up being a commander, which was the most unacceptable to Qin Ge. Then this money...
"I still..." Qin Ge sighed deeply and said to the Prince of Wales.
"Don't look so desperate. You were also sold out and are a victim. I can understand that. So, is it true that Xu Xin said in the letter that you have done some research on naval warfare theory?" Prince of Wales asked, changing the subject.
"I understand a little, but I dare not say I am proficient in it." Qin Ge replied. In the original world, he studied the theory of battle tactics and methodology, but now in this world, all the ships have become girls, and the conventional battle tactics and methodology theory is completely inapplicable to them, so he can only say that he understands a little, but cannot say that he is proficient in it.
"Then let me ask you a question, what is the most important thing for both the enemy and us on the battlefield?" asked the Prince of Wales.
"Intelligence!" Qin Ge blurted out. Knowing yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. This sentence applies to any form of warfare, so intelligence is absolutely the most important thing in any war. In an environment of unequal intelligence, there are countless battles where the few defeated the many and the weak defeated the strong.
The Prince of Wales nodded and asked, "So which type of naval ship is the most important?"
Qin Ge hesitated for a moment, and said to the Prince of Wales, "I think among all types of naval ships, the missions performed by each type of ship are very critical, but if we talk about which type of ship is the most important, then I think it is the aircraft carrier."
"Oh, why?" asked the Prince of Wales.
Qin Ge really wanted to roll his eyes and say to the Prince of Wales, "You don't even know how you died?" But he absolutely didn't dare to say this, so he answered very solemnly, "In naval battles, the most important thing is air and sea control, and aircraft carriers are born to gain air control in battles. The purpose of gaining air control in battles is to ensure the air safety of our own services, major deployments of arms, important targets and major combat operations, and to protect ourselves from or lessen the harm caused by the enemy's air, which will play a decisive role in a battle. And if we have air control, we will have more intelligence on the enemy, and we will have the decisive conditions for victory."
Prince Wales nodded after hearing Qin Ge's explanation. "You are right, but not entirely right. Battle sea supremacy is equally important, and battleships are the most decisive factor in achieving battle sea supremacy. But you answered my question very accurately and put forward your own views, which is very good. It seems that what Xu Xin mentioned in the letter was not just empty talk. You do have a unique understanding of battle tactical theory."
"Thank you." Qin Ge said modestly.
"You're welcome. Our Command Academy is in need of someone like you who is well versed in campaign and tactical theories." Prince of Wales smiled and turned to look at Fushun, who was already a little stunned by what he had heard. "Fushun, go downstairs and bring up the Mind Cube Suitability Detection Device."
"Yes!" Fushun replied quickly, then turned and walked out of the office.
The Prince of Wales turned around and said to Qin Ge, "Actually, there is another way for you to pay off the money quickly, and that is to stay in school as an assistant teacher."
"Huh?" Qin Ge was speechless. "Dean, didn't I say before that I only have a rough understanding of battle and tactical theories, and I can't say I'm proficient in them? If I become a teaching assistant, wouldn't that be harmful to others?"
"Actually, I don't want this to happen. The previous teacher who taught campaign and tactical theory went back to the inland to visit his relatives and won't be back for a while, so I can only find someone to replace him. But after searching for a long time, there is no suitable one. They won't let me personally teach the new students the theory of campaign and tactical theory. After all, I have other work to do." Prince of Wales looked at Qin Ge helplessly.
"But you can't choose me. After all, I'm not a member of the Commander Academy yet?" Qin Ge said speechlessly.
"So I asked Fushun to get the Mind Cube adaptability detection device. You will take the test later. If the adaptability rate is qualified, then you will be a new student of the Commander Academy, and you will be my subordinate. With your current theoretical level, you can teach a group of commander students who know nothing, and it will be more than enough. If the adaptability rate is not qualified, then I can hire you as a temporary assistant teacher at the Commander Academy, and when the professor comes back, you can transfer to the scientific research area next door to continue your studies." The Prince of Wales smiled.
"Dean, you are really forcing the issue..." Qin Ge said to the Prince of Wales.
"Three million," said the Prince of Wales, with a playful smile in his eyes.
"No, I'll do it. Can't I do it?" Qin Ge responded quickly, waving his hands.
Just as he finished speaking, Fushun walked in from the door holding a machine...
