Chapter 159: Unexpected Gains
The moment Qin Ge gave the order, all the ship's guns were aimed at the Fallen Ship Girl who was gliding towards them and firing.
The deafening sound of cannons rang out, and with just one round of attacks, the fallen ship girl who was emitting red light all over her body disappeared into thin air. She fell to the surface of the sea with her ship uniform on, and then sank.
"Report to the commander, the small Siren mass-produced fleet has been destroyed, please give instructions." Veneto said into the communication device.
"Very good, stay alert, have the Centaurs send out carrier-based aircraft to resume reconnaissance, and the others will be responsible for cleaning up the battlefield." Qin Ge responded to the communication device.
"Yes!" Veneto's voice sounded short and powerful, and everyone else also heard Qin Ge's order.
So the Centaurs began to take off their carrier-based aircraft again for reconnaissance, while the people in the front row quickly rushed to the sea area where the battle had just taken place, ready to pick up the scattered supplies and resources on the sea. However, no one noticed that bubbles were bubbling up where the fallen ship girl sank.
After everyone finished searching for the supplies dropped by the farthest mass-produced destroyer, they began to turn back to the original direction. Suddenly, they saw a ship girl appear on the sea, and the shape of this ship girl was somewhat similar to the fallen ship girl that everyone had sunk before.
Because the fallen shipgirls were covered with red and black flames, it was difficult to identify which shipgirl they were. But the shipgirl that appeared on the sea now did not have the aura of a fallen shipgirl, but was just like an ordinary shipgirl.
With a bit of caution, everyone quickly approached the ship girl. She was standing on the sea, facing the ship girl gliding towards her, without moving.
She didn't react until Prince Eugen, Belfast and others glided to her side.
"Oh? It's actually a normal ship girl. It seems that our luck is pretty good this time." Prince Eugen looked at the ship girl in front of him and said, "Hey, what's the girl's name?"
As Prince Eugen asked the question, the little girl in front of him with long pink hair, wearing a navy hat with a feather on it, spoke nervously to everyone who was looking at her.
"That... Fletcher's Little Beaver Squad... Spence... and my sisters participated in the Mariana Turkey Shoot. A typhoon is coming... Ugh, I'm so nervous that I can't remember anything!"
"Where are the White Eagle's destroyers? I said the bombardment looked quite fierce at that time, but why were the torpedoes so weak? Turns out it was you, the White Eagles. It seems everything is clear now." Prince couldn't help but tease as he looked at Spence.
However, what Prince Eugen did not expect was that her teasing made Spence, who was already a little nervous, burst into tears.
"Eh..." In an instant, even someone as calm as Prince Eugen was at a loss .
"I said, don't cry, I didn't mean anything else, I was just joking with you."
At this time, Belfast slid up from behind Prince Eugen and stroked Spence's head with his hand. "Don't be nervous, don't be afraid , it's okay now. These people here are your companions. From now on, we are all a family. Now I will take you to see the master."
Belfast's gentleness made Spence slowly stop crying. "Master?"
"In our words, it's the commander." Prince Eugen said to Spence, "Because you are the ship girl who appeared after we sank the Fallen Ship Girl, so you naturally belong to our fleet."
"Is that so?" Spence was a little confused, but nodded.
"Haha, I guess the master will be very happy this time. After all, Spence is the first ship girl salvaged from our fleet." Belfast said to Spence.
"Well, he should feel very happy, but the prerequisite is that he has experience in taking care of children." Prince Eugen's mouth curled up slightly, as if he thought of something interesting.
Belfast smiled and shook his head, then said to Spence, "Come on, come with me."
"Okay...thank you." Spence nodded timidly to Belfast.
Belfast turned his head to Prince Eugen who was standing beside him, "Then this place will be left to you to take charge of."
"No problem." Prince Eugen nodded, and Noshiro and Ayanami beside him also nodded, confirming it.
Qin Ge at the dock also had a puzzled look on his face. He looked into the distance through a telescope and said to the light beside him, "Why do I feel like there's one more person on the sea?"
Guanghui smiled and said, "It's not an illusion, it should be that they just salvaged the ship. Congratulations, Commander, our fleet will have another ship girl."
Qin Ge was a little surprised, "Huh? The first time they faced the Fallen Ship Girl and the small Siren mass-produced fleet, they sent out salvage ships?"
"That's right. Otherwise, how could someone suddenly appear on this empty sea?" Guanghui smiled. "And Commander, you see Belfast has brought that ship girl to our dock. I believe she is here to see you, Commander?"
"Haha, that proves that my luck is still as good as ever." Qin Ge said to Guanghui on the side.
Guanghui thought of Qin Ge's construction process and couldn't help but chuckled, "Commander, we just need to know these things. Don't make them too public, otherwise, it will arouse the hostility of some commanders who are unlucky."
Qin Ge thought about the name of his European dog that was circulated in the academy before, and couldn't help but touch his nose, "Well, don't worry, I will wait until there is no one to build it in the future."
"Haha." Qin Ge's answer caused Guanghui to laugh.
Just as the two were chatting and laughing, Belfast brought Spence to Qin Ge soon.
"Thank you for your hard work, Belfast. We cooperated very well just now." Qin Ge said to Belfast.
"Thank you for the encouragement, Master. This is the goal we set during our usual training, so it is reasonable that we performed normally. However, the most surprising thing this time is her appearance." Belfast said to Qin Ge, then turned to look at Spence on the side.
"Spence, this is the commander of our fleet and my master. Please introduce yourself to him."
Spence looked at Qin Ge timidly and said, "Point to the commander... hello... Fletcher Little Beaver Squad... Spence."
Qin Ge immediately understood, Spence, Fletcher-class destroyer No. 35. The Fletcher-class destroyer is the first destroyer of the White Eagle Navy with a standard displacement of more than 2,000 tons.
A total of 175 destroyers of this class were built, with a powerful power system, a total power of 60,000 horsepower, and a speed of 37.8 knots. They were the main force of the White Eagle Navy's destroyer fleet in the middle and late stages of World War II.
Qin Ge looked at the timid little girl in front of him, made his face look as gentle as possible, and said to her, "Hello Spence, my name is Qin Ge, and from today on I will be your commander."
