Chapter 214

When the smoke and mist cleared, a girl appeared before Qin Ge.

She has lotus-root-colored hair, tied into a ponytail at the back, wearing a small crown on her head, wearing a one-piece short skirt, a blue scarf tied around her neck, a white glove on her right hand, and on the glove there is also a red bow.

Just as Qin Ge was observing this shipgirl, she opened her eyes and looked toward Qin Ge in front of her.

Upon seeing Qin Ge for the first time, this shipgirl smiled and then energetically said to Qin Ge, "Hello, Commander, I am the J-class destroyer Biaoqiang."

She took part with her sisters in the Battle of Narvik and the Dunkirk evacuation; although there were some minor hiccups along the way, she also fought until the end.

Looking at the energetic Biaoqiang in front of him, Qin Ge smiled and reached out his hand, saying to her, "Hello, Biaoqiang, I am Qin Ge; from now on I will be your commander. I hope that in future life and battle, you can give me more guidance."

"Heh, the commander is looking forward to me!" Biaoqiang happily said, "Don't worry, commander, Biaoqiang will work hard!"

Qin Ge smiled and nodded, "Yeah, let's work hard together. By the way, everyone in the fleet is also here; shall I take you over to meet everyone first?"

"Sure." Biaoqiang agreed without hesitation, and then closely followed Qin Ge's side, walking toward the crowd.

As Qin Ge and Biaoqiang approached, the people who were chatting stopped and looked at the two of them. Qin Ge smiled and said to everyone, "This is the Royal Navy's destroyer Biaoqiang, who will also be our comrade-in-arms from now on; I hope everyone gets along well."

After the introduction finished, Biaoqiang also stepped forward and said to everyone, "I am Biaoqiang; if anyone needs help, feel free to tell me anytime."

As senior members of the Royal, Luodenni and Guanghui stepped forward, welcomed Biaoqiang, and also introduced the somewhat shy Du Jiao Shou standing nearby to Biaoqiang.

Seeing the few people chatting happily, Xu Fei nodded in relief, then shifted his body aside and continued walking toward the construction device. Since construction was not yet complete, he needed to keep at it.

Then, according to the supplies and Wisdom Cube previously needed for the light construction device, Qin Ge placed them into the construction device and then pressed the start button on the side.

With the construction device's rumbling sound, its screen began to keep changing, until the device stopped, and a time also appeared on its screen.

1:20:00!

Looking at this time, Qin Ge couldn't help but nod. Because Nengdai previously also had this time, and this time he didn't know which shipgirl would appear.

Then Qin Ge took the Rapid Construction Tool, placed it into the construction device's recess, and pressed the start button beside the device. The entire construction device began to shake, accompanied by a rumbling sound, and the time numbers on its screen instantly reset to zero.

After the shaking and noise ceased, the hatch gradually opened, and a puff of smoke burst out as the hatch opened. Immediately followed, a purple light followed the smoke, bursting forth from the gap in the hatch.

As the hatch grew larger and finally opened fully, the smoke gradually dissipated, the purple light gradually converged, and appearing before Qin Ge was a shipgirl who looked very ladylike.

She had light gold hair, with a black ribbon at the back of her hair. She wore a white naval uniform, and even the stockings on her legs were white.

Qin Ge looked at this shipgirl, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity arose in his heart. Meanwhile, the shipgirl gradually opened her eyes, and upon seeing Qin Ge, she revealed a gentle smile.

"I am the fourth ship of the Royal Navy's A Ruo Tuo Sha class, Ou ruo la; you can also call me the Dawn Goddess. As for the unpleasant nickname 'Silver Monster,' please don't use it... However, compared to these, Commander, perhaps you are more familiar with another of my names?"

Upon hearing Ou ruo la's self-introduction, Qin Ge immediately realized what that sense of familiarity in his heart was.

The fourth ship of the A Ruo Tuo Sha class, Ou ruo la, also has another name, which is Chong qing. This holds true both in this world and in the world Qin Ge previously inhabited.

Ou ruo la, that is Chong qing, is the only light cruiser possessed by Qin Ge's military, and also the largest cruiser obtained by the navy during the Republic of China era.

Although shortly after joining Qin Ge's unit it was heavily damaged by bombers and sank, it was later salvaged and subsequently used for various purposes until it was scrapped in the early 1990s.

Later, to commemorate this warship, the naval ministry named a Type 051 guided-missile destroyer and the 113th destroyer as Chong qing. This is also the first time Qin Ge's military has twice renamed a frontline main combat vessel.

Qin Ge looked at the gentle girl before him, extended his right hand, smiled, and said, "Yes, Chong qing, I am Qin Ge; from today onward I will be your commander. In both life and battle, please continue to give me guidance."

"Of course, I also hope the commander will give me guidance." Ou ruo la smiled, took Qin Ge's hand, and said to him.

Their handshake didn't last long before they let go. Then Qin Ge said to Ou ruo la, "So, should I call you Ou ruo la or Chong qing from now on?"

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet; whether you call me Er la or Chong qing, I am still myself." Ou ruo la smiled and said, "Commander, call me whatever you like."

Qin Ge chuckled, "Then I'll call you Chong qing from now on; that name feels more intimate."

"Okay." Ou ruo la smiled and nodded.

Next, Qin Ge said to Ou ruo la, "Then let me first take you to meet the rest of our fleet; they will be your comrades in battle and in life."

"Sure, I'm also really looking forward to it." Ou ruo la laughed and said.

Immediately, Qin Ge brought Ou ruo la toward the crowd; as they passed by the Prince of Wales and Yixian, Yixian smiled and nodded at Ou ruo la.

After all, Ou ruo la is also a shipgirl from the Donghuang camp that she belongs to; now that Qin Ge has summoned her, it can also be considered a kind of fate.

After passing Yixian, Qin Ge brought Ou ruo la before the crowd, smiled and said, "Let me introduce her to everyone: this is Chong qing, also Ou ruo la; from now on she will be one of us."

"Hello everyone, I am the fourth ship of the A Ruo Tuo Sha class, Ou ruo la, likewise also called Chong qing by the commander; please give me your guidance, everyone." Ou ruo la smiled and said.

Upon hearing Ou ruo la's self-introduction, Guanghui, who belongs to the Royal, smiled, stepped forward, and took Ou ruo la's hand, saying, "Hello, Ou ruo la; however, since the commander calls you Chong qing, we will also call you Chong qing."

"Hmm."
