Chapter 307: The Third Round
"How could I..." James looked frustrated as he watched the defeated ship girls gradually slide towards the shore.
Originally, he thought he had already understood the air offensive, so he let his ship girls disperse and then charge towards Qin Ge's ship girls in batches.
However, they did not expect that after dispersing, the anti-aircraft firepower of the ship girls would be weakened, and they were killed one by one by the carrier-based aircraft flying in the sky.
This is a case of being too clever by half, as taking one aspect into consideration leaves the weakness of another exposed.
After his ship girl came ashore, James said to her with a somewhat dejected look, "I'm sorry, it was my mistake made you..."
Arizona shook her head. "Commander, don't blame yourself. This plan was agreed upon by everyone, so it's not your fault alone."
"Well, sister Arizona is right. The enemy this time is too strong and this is a last resort. So the commander does not need to blame himself. Instead, he should learn from the experience and take it as a warning the next time he encounters the same thing." Montpelier said to James.
Listening to the encouragement from his shipgirl, James gradually regained his confidence. He nodded to his shipgirl, "Well, thank you everyone."
While James and his companions were encouraging each other, Qin Ge's ship girl jumped from the sea to the dock, and a group of people surrounded Qin Ge.
"You guys were really too cruel." Qin Ge said speechlessly to the girls on the aircraft carriers.
"Oh, I didn't expect that the other side would not maintain their defensive formation in the face of the carrier-based aircraft group, and actually began to scatter. Faced with such an opportunity, I naturally have to seize it." Guanghui said with a smile, because they could tell that Qin Ge was not blaming her.
Because Tejas is the flagship of the carrier-based aircraft group of the aircraft carrier ship girl, the target of each attack is designated by her, and the planes of the other aircraft carrier ship girls follow behind Tejas' planes to assist in the attack.
After hearing Guanghui's explanation, Qin Ge was speechless. Any experienced commander would definitely make the same decision as Guanghui in such a situation.
So the glory just did the right thing, and the only one to blame is James' own wrong decision.
"Forget it." Qin Ge shook his head. "It's already like this, and we can't change it. Let's go over and shake hands. I just hope that Commander James around here won't hate me."
"hehe."
The ship girls looked at the depressed Qin Ge and couldn't help laughing. Even the usually serious Bismarck had a gentle look on her face at this moment.
When they reached the center and shook hands with James, Qin Ge couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party didn't look very depressed.
Otherwise, if we beat them to the point where they lose all their fighting spirit, it would be difficult to explain to White Eagle.
Next, it was Qin Ge versus Royal Hepburn. When the battle started, facing the black mass of carrier-based aircraft, Hepburn felt the pressure that James had just endured.
Even though he used a wheel formation to use anti-aircraft firepower to deal with the enemy's carrier-based aircraft, after a wave of air strikes, his own fleet had already suffered heavy damage.
Of the six shipgirls, three were already badly defeated and eliminated. Even the carrier-based aircraft released by the Royal Ark were destroyed as soon as they encountered the opponent's carrier-based aircraft group.
Because she was facing a fully-trained Confucian who launched six fighter jets.
So the battle ended quickly, and Hepburn's ship had not even entered the range of the battleship's main gun.
So when the shipgirls of both sides returned to the dock, Hiei stood on the rostrum and said to everyone, "The second round of the exercise is over, and the first place winner is Commander Qin Ge of Donghuang, and he will get 10 extra points for this round.
The second place went to Commander Hepburn, the commander of the Royal camp, and Commander James, the commander of the White Eagle camp, who each added 9 points.
The third place goes to the commanders of the remaining factions, each of whom will receive 8 points."
When the results of Hiei were announced, most of the commanders who were eliminated in the first round breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the promotion system was used, otherwise they might not even have 8 points.
Before everyone could react, Hiei said to them, "The third round will begin now. The rules of the third round are very simple.
That is, all commanders and ship girls will enter the battle area and engage in a melee between the nine camps. There are no rules in this melee, and you can form alliances and use any tactics.
In short, there is only one goal, and that is to become the final winner. "
After Hiei finished speaking, the eyes of the commanders of several camps became fiery.
A big melee means there is a chance for a comeback. Although Qin Ge has already scored full marks in two games, as long as they can perform well in the third game, the outcome is unpredictable.
"Then please make preparations, everyone nine." After Hiei finished speaking, the commanders of the other eight camps began to move.
They gathered together, but excluded Qin Ge alone.
Some people may think that if they form a team with Qin Ge and become allies, then they will surely be among the top few, right?
But don't forget, they each represent their camp to participate in the competition. And only the winner of this competition will get rewards. As for the other 8 losers, no one will remember them.
Therefore, the only way for them to win is to unite and first eliminate Qin Ge, who has the best chance of winning. Then, the eight people will compete for the championship.
In this way, all eight of them will have the opportunity to represent their own camp and stand at the highest point.
Qin Ge had anticipated that such a situation would occur before the start of the game, so he had been using aircraft carrier forces to attack in order to cover up the power of his battleships.
And now, it's time for the final battle.
The preparation time before the game was relatively short. After the commanders of the other eight camps finished their discussion, they began to equip the ship girls with practice missiles and prepare to go on the field.
Qin Ge on the side had already equipped the ship girls early, practiced the missiles, and watched the actions of the commanders of the other eight camps beside the dock.
"Commander, what do you think the outcome will be?" Guanghui stood beside Qin Ge and smiled at him.
"There is no predetermined outcome. Maybe we will clear them all out, or maybe they will clear us out first." Qin Ge said.
"So, Commander, do you think we will be eliminated first? Or them?" asked Prince Eugen.
Qin Ge smiled slightly, "Isn't this obvious? Although the commanders of the eight camps have joined forces, they still have grudges against each other, so they will definitely notify their ship girls to be prepared for others.
This is our chance. Although they have more people than us, their coordination is definitely not as good as ours. We just need to focus on one point to break through and tear open a hole in their alliance defense line, and then we can prey on them at will."
