Chapter 346 Requirements before the War
When Qin Ge arrived at the training ground, Li Chenming and the others were standing on the dock, holding communication devices and binoculars in their hands, watching the fierce battle on the sea in the distance, and saying something.
Qin Ge couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene, but he immediately thought of the upcoming Siren Tide, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes again.
He walked to the side of the crowd, stretched out his hand and clapped his palms, "Everyone stop for a moment and summon all your ship girls back. I have something to tell you."
"Hey? Commander, where did you go just now? We didn't see you when we came here." Li Chenming asked Qin Ge, and the others also looked confused.
"I'll explain it later. Let your ship girls come back first." Qin Ge said.
"Yes." Although they didn't know why Qin Ge asked the ship girls to come back, there must be something important to announce, so Li Chenming and the others quickly gave the order.
At this time, Qin Ge also took out the communicator and ordered his ship girl to return.
Not long after, the ship girls who had just been fighting on the sea returned to the shore one after another, and each returned to their commander to ask why they were summoned back.
"Because the commander said he had something to announce, so we had to summon you back. But since the commander said it so seriously, it must be an urgent matter, otherwise he would not interrupt the exercise." Li Chenming said to the ship girl who asked him.
At this time, everyone looked at Qin Ge, waiting for him to announce something.
Qin Ge nodded to his shipgirl and said to everyone, "Today I am here to announce something to everyone. Just last night, the Siren Tide began!"
"What, it started so early? It's only early October. Doesn't it usually start in mid-October?" Several commanders asked in surprise.
Qin Ge raised his hand to stop the others from talking, "This year's Siren Tide is different from previous years. It is much stronger than previous years in terms of scale and intensity, so you must have a clear understanding of this.
According to my reliable information, the erosion of the coastal waters has now been upgraded to a higher level, and the number of Siren fleets this year is one third more than last year."
"Ah, how could it be..." Li Chenming and others said in surprise.
"Don't panic. We are not going to confront the Siren Fleet head-on. Instead, we are carrying out missions in the offshore areas. These missions will not be too dangerous. At most, they are just some support and transportation missions.
This is our first large fleet coordinated mission, and it is also our first time facing the Siren Tide, so I must explain to you what you need to pay attention to this time." Qin Ge said.
"Yes!" Everyone stood at attention facing Qin Ge.
"First of all, I will take all the tasks this time, so you only need to be responsible for carrying out the tasks. During the execution of the tasks, you must maintain smooth communication with each other, and you must check these devices every time you carry out a mission.
Secondly, during the execution of the mission, you must follow my orders and must not change the mission objectives without authorization. Do not panic or get confused when any situation arises. Everything must be done according to our previous training and keep up with the rhythm of my fleet.
Finally, I want to emphasize that you must keep close to my fleet and not leave it for some petty gains.
Our goal this time is not to lose anyone, and never let your ship sink because of your momentary stupidity. I don't think any of you want this result, right?"
After Qin Ge finished saying these words, his sharp eyes swept across everyone present. Those who were swept by his eyes couldn't help but straighten their backs.
This was the first time they had seen Qin Ge so serious, but they could all understand Qin Ge's current mood. After all, he was leading a group of commanders who had never been on a major battlefield, and his pressure could be imagined.
"Okay, that's all I have to say. Next, go back and prepare. Take a half-day break today. We will gather at the warehouse entrance at 8:00 tomorrow morning and start the mission together!" Qin Ge said.
" Yes!" A loud voice echoed in the training ground. When the voice gradually faded away, the commanders in front of Qin Ge had already left the training ground with their ship girls. In the training ground, only Qin Ge and his ship girls were left.
He turned and looked at his ship girls, his serious expression softened, "Then let's go back too."
"Yes, Commander." All the ship girls nodded.
On the way back, Javelin ran to Qin Ge's side and said, "Commander, why don't we set off today? Didn't you just say that the battle started last night?"
Qin Ge looked at the javelin and smiled, "Yes, the battle started last night, but it is our battle, so it is impossible to start now.
We know a lot of information, and although we can set off at any time, I have to consider the members of the Grand Fleet. They don't know much about the Siren Tide, and they don't have as many ship girls as I do, nor as much experience as I have.
Therefore, when encountering a large group battle like this , and the Siren Tide which is the biggest test for new commanders, it will definitely take some time to adjust your mentality.
I would rather wait for a day than have them go to the battlefield with doubts, haste, and a little worry. A day is enough for them to arrange their affairs and adjust their mentality. "
"The commander really cares about them." Aurora smiled.
"This is nothing. I'm just trying to help others with my own experience. In fact, I also want to take advantage of this small gap to accompany you to have a good rest. Because from now on, we may not have time to rest for a long time." Qin Ge said with a smile.
"There's no problem with that. We are ship girls, born to sail on the sea. So the commander doesn't have to worry too much about us. Just focus on your own command." Bismarck said uncharacteristically, but one could also hear the concern in her tone.
"Haha, I didn't expect that you would also defend your commander. It's really rare." Prince Eugen would definitely not miss the opportunity to tease Bismarck like this, so he said with a smile.
But Bismarck ignored Prince Eugen's teasing and remained calm.
"I don't know if you have noticed that the commander's leadership qualities are becoming stronger and stronger. He is indeed someone I recognize." Veneto said with a smile.
"Really?" Qin Ge asked doubtfully.
All the ship girls nodded, and Javelin said, "Commander, the look in your eyes when you looked at those commanders just now was very sharp, which made people straighten their backs involuntarily and believe in you."
"that is……"
On the main road of the academy, Qin Ge was surrounded by a group of ship girls and slowly walked back to the guesthouse.
