Chapter 426: Prolonged Combat

Qin Ge had just returned to the building when he saw all the shipgirls sitting in the grand hall, not busy at all, each holding a teacup, looking very relaxed.

This situation made Qin Ge very puzzled, "Have you finished cleaning the building? Are the rooms all arranged?"

At that moment everyone laughed, and Biaoqiang quickly ran to Qin Ge's side and said, "Commander, when they left they had already cleaned every room, so when we came we just needed to set up our own things, and it didn't take much time."

Qin Ge chuckled, "Huh, then we're basically moving in with just our luggage."

"Moving in with just our luggage? About right, huh?" Biaoqiang said to Qin Ge.

"Has everyone gotten a break?" Qin Ge asked with a smile.

"No." Biaoqiang hurriedly shook his head and said, "Ou ruo la elder sister went to the nearby garden to plant roses, Hai Lun Na elder sister followed her, Lisailiu elder sister is praying, and Sheng Di Ya Ge and Osborn they ran off to the beach to play."

Ling Bo and Bunker Hill elder sister were playing games in the room, Biyu elder sister went to check the banquet hall, Xinong elder sister and Laffey were sleeping. And that Qibolin, as soon as she arrived she sat on the roof, and no matter how you call her she won't come down.

Qin Ge couldn't help but feel embarrassed; everyone else was quite normal, only Qibolin was a bit abnormal. But let her stay on the roof, otherwise if she told those destroyers world-destroying things, it would corrupt them worse than this.

So Qin Ge nodded and asked, "Does this place where we live have a meeting room?"

"Yes." The one answering Qin Ge was not Biaoqiang but Bisimai standing by the wall in the distance, "Commander, are you preparing to hold a meeting?"

Qin Ge nodded, "Yes, just there I've already arranged the affairs of the grand fleet; now it's time to arrange our fleet's missions."

"Then let's go to the meeting room to talk." Bisimai nodded and said to Qin Ge.

Qin Ge looked at the people present and nodded, "Then let's start the meeting; just have the flagship commanders of each mixed fleet come over, and everyone else can do as they please."

As Qin Ge spoke, Guanghui, Bisimai, and Weineituo walked over, while Biaoqiang said to Qin Ge, "Then Commander, I'll go call Lisailiu elder sister."

Qin Ge nodded, "Then thank you, Biaoqiang."

"No problem." Biaoqiang said and ran off.

"Commander, if you don't mind, may I sit in as a listener?" Peter Strasse said to Qin Ge.

Qin Ge nodded, "Sure, it's not anything confidential; if anyone wants to join, you can come over."

"Yes." Several shipgirls nodded interestedly, after all they had nothing to do sitting here; it would be better to follow Qin Ge and them to the meeting and discuss future countermeasures.

After a few people arrived at the meeting room, not long later Lisailiu appeared at the doorway. And as Lisailiu took her seat, the military meeting officially began.

"The grand fleet's meeting just ended; basically they know what sea areas they need to patrol and defend. And outside those areas, those are our fleet's targets." Qin Ge said to everyone.

"For now, we're still following the formation from the academy: I, Bisimai, Lisailiu, and Weineituo each lead a detachment, advancing toward the respective target sea areas."

"However, this time since we won't be taking on many commission tasks temporarily, the distance between our four fleets doesn't need to be too great; we just stay within communication range and then conduct patrols and attacks in the sea areas."

"The purpose of this is that if an unexpected situation arises, we can also support each other offensively and defensively, watch over and help each other."

As Qin Ge spoke, many shipgirls nodded involuntarily. Don't think the distance Qin Ge mentioned is very close; in fact it's not that close either.

The communication equipment installed on the ship's gear, after years of research by the major factions, has a very large reliable range. For example, several faction envoy shipgirls, using their dedicated equipment, can contact their own factions.

Even without any satellite support, such communication can be done. Even if some communication equipment on the command ship is weaker than the envoy shipgirls' handheld devices, basically there is a coverage area of one hundred kilometers.

Therefore, between the several fleets overlapping, the maximum operational distance can reach about four hundred kilometers; this distance is by no means close.

Moreover, the communication device on Qin Ge's command ship is still the latest model; compared to the communication equipment on ordinary commanders' warships, its range is much larger, so basically it can cover the entire sea area of erosion level four.

"Afterward I will use Hu Feng's dedicated communication device for me, letting her activate the beacon detector once a day to transmit the position of the Siren fleet in the sea area to us, so although our configuration is like that in the academy, we must prepare for long-term combat at sea."

"Each time we go out to sea, we stay for about one week to one month, so we can experience more battles without wasting time on the road every day."

"When we were at the academy, we needed to guarantee daily basics at school, so we had to go back and forth every day, but now that's no longer necessary. Moreover, this not only lets us quickly improve our proficiency level, but also trains our ability to sustain combat." Qin Ge said to everyone.

Bisimai nodded, "I understand the commander's meaning, which is hoping we quickly adapt to this combat intensity and also be able to conduct sufficient battles, gather enough combat data, to ensure that the project ship can appear sooner."

Qin Ge nodded, "Indeed that's the reasoning, so I hope everyone can understand."

Weineituo smiled, "There's nothing to understand or not understand; this isn't just the commander's matter, it's our shared thing, I believe no one will refuse."

"However, after doing this, the time spent together with the commander will be a bit less." Lie Kexingdun standing nearby said.

Qin Ge laughed and shook his head, "I don't think so; for now I mainly stay with the Royal shipgirls because of the project ship. Once the project key is completed, it will go to each fleet."

"And I think since the Royal side has a project ship, the other factions will also have project ships, so for you there's no bias toward anyone."

All the shipgirls couldn't help but laugh; Lie Kexingdun's question hit the heart of the matter, but Qin Ge's answer also hit the heart.

After all, it's plain to see that Qin Ge and the Royal shipgirls spend too much time together, their relationship is much better than that of other factions' shipgirls, so anyone would feel a bit jealous.

And Qin Ge's answer like that not only relieved them, but also made them eagerly anticipate when it would be their own faction's project shipgirl's turn.
