Chapter 372: Eliminating Doubts

Furthermore, along the coastline here, we will arrange some grand fleets to conduct weak defense here as a precaution.

Because we are conducting mobile warfare, the unified fleet formed by our various grand fleets can also come to support by constantly moving, and will not create the situation described by Commander Chenxun.

Furthermore, the issue of carrier shipgirls — I know everyone will think that if carrier shipgirls are not in the fleet, air superiority cannot be guaranteed.

But what I want to tell you is that this is not your previous independent grand fleet operations, but a continuous line of defensive works. Each of your grand fleets is a part of this defensive work; you do not have to bear all the tasks.

Gather all aircraft carrier shipgirls together, and our defensive side will then have a large number of carrier-based aircraft groups.

Using this carrier-based aircraft group can easily suppress the carrier-based aircraft taking off from the Sirens' fleet carriers, thereby securing air superiority.

You can imagine that the aircraft flying above your heads are all our shipgirls' carrier-based aircraft; what air defense worries do you still have?

What you need to do is seize sea control, lure out the Sirens' fleet bit by bit, destroy them, then lure again and destroy again, eating them up bit by bit.

Once air superiority is secured, the brigade formed from aircraft carriers can then launch carrier-based aircraft groups to provide aerial assistance while you fight the Sirens.

Such assistance cannot be mustered by a single grand fleet; it is carried out jointly by the aircraft carriers of several grand fleets. Do you still think this is your loss?

When all of you do this, we can minimize our personnel losses and effectively annihilate the Sirens' fleet, thereby achieving the goal of defending Shenhua City.

This shows you understand, Commander Chenxun?

Looking into Qin Ge's eyes, Chenxun felt, on this young man's person, waves of composure and calmness. Not only did he give an explanation for his own doubts, but he also left Chenxun with nothing to say.

"Understood, Commander Qin Ge." Chenxun could only nod and say nothing more.

"Then, does anyone still have questions? If so, raise them as much as possible to eliminate all uncertainties, because in war one must never bring doubts onto the battlefield." Qin Ge asked.

At this moment, Zhang Shiping below raised his hand; Qin Ge saw it and smiled, "Commander Zhang Shiping, please tell me what doubts you have."

Zhang Shiping smiled and said, "Regarding Instructor Qin Ge's tactical arrangements, I have no doubts; however, I am doubtful about how the gains of each grand fleet should be calculated in this Siren Tide defense."

According to Instructor Qin Ge's tactical arrangements, there will certainly be some grand fleets unable to engage the Sirens directly and instead hold fast near the coastline, which would result in those grand fleets having relatively low income.

Regarding this point, may I ask if there is any good solution?

Qin Ge gave a slight smile, turned his head to look at Qinglong, saw Qinglong nod at him, then turned back to everyone and said.

"Regarding this point of gains, I and Director Qinglong have already discussed it on the way here."

Because this time we are operating as a group with all our grand fleets, the benefits will be distributed according to group operations.

That is, the Maritime Affairs Bureau issues the mission; all grand fleets participating in the Siren Tide defense are deemed to have implicitly accepted this mission.

Of course, in this group operation, all spoils seized by everyone must be turned in entirely.

The gains from this mission will be entirely distributed by the Maritime Affairs Bureau, combining the submitted supplies and reward supplies, to each participating grand fleet. It is guaranteed that each grand fleet receives the same amount, and there will be no reduction in gains due to different splits.

Therefore, under the condition that all grand fleets receive the same reward, the grand fleets that go to fight will gain extra benefits from improving shipgirl proficiency and coordination, while the defending ones naturally do not have this extra; what do you think?

After Qin Ge finished speaking, all the grand fleet commanders involuntarily nodded. Conducting this Siren defense in the form of a group task is indeed a method to resolve unequal distribution.

It can also effectively prevent everyone from fighting for personal gain, ignoring the overall situation for trivial profit.

Afterward, several more commanders raised their hands, asking about communications and liaison aspects in mobile warfare; all received Qin Ge's perfect explanation.

Finally, everyone had no more questions, and no one raised their hand again.

"It seems everyone now has no doubts about this battle's tactics and distribution issues; then I hope each commander, after returning to their grand fleet, will explain the situation to their fleet members and tell them to have their carrier shipgirls report to the Maritime Affairs Bureau harbor."

In order for our carrier fleet to quickly form and secure air superiority, so that we can smoothly get through this Siren Tide.

Today's mobilization meeting ends here; everyone now returns to their respective grand fleets, assembles at the front line, and begins deployment.

Seeing that no one had further questions, Qinglong stepped forward and said to all the fleet commanders.

"Yes!"

After Qinglong gave the order, all fleet commanders loudly responded, then left the meeting room, leaving only a few staff of the Maritime Affairs Bureau, Qin Ge, and Qinglong.

"Then let's set out; you go first to the port to return to the command ship, I will arrange personnel to take out the communication equipment, and we will meet at the port later." Qinglong said to Qin Ge.

Qin Ge nodded, bade farewell to Qinglong, and walked toward the port along the way they had come.

However, Qin Ge had not walked far when he saw several familiar people standing on the road, obviously waiting for him.

"Instructor Qin Ge, oh no, should be the operations staff; I was wondering why I hadn't seen you teaching lately — turns out you're also participating in the Siren Tide like us." Zhang Shiping said to Qin Ge, waving his hand.

Qin Ge smiled and stepped forward, "What staff? I am merely following orders from the Headquarters. But how do you know I will definitely come over?"

"Hehe, just guessing." A lieutenant commander beside Zhang Shiping said to Qin Ge, while looking at Qin Ge's lieutenant commander insignia, his eye twitched, "Instructor Qin Ge, your promotion speed is really fast."

Qin Ge helplessly said, "I never imagined that my casual action would trigger so many chain reactions."

"Nevertheless, this is a good thing; this lieutenant commander rank is fitting for Instructor Qin Ge's fleet strength." Zhang Shiping said.

"Indeed!" The others quickly nodded, for after a long time listening to lectures, they were very familiar with Qin Ge's strength.

"Let's go, we'll talk as we walk."

"Good."
