Chapter 507: New Formation

Qin Ge immediately understood Tiancheng's meaning upon hearing this, "Exactly, this is like categorization, which would evenly distribute all the shipgirls among the eight fleets."

"Yes, I believe each flagship serving as fleet commander will grasp the balance of herself and another fleet, so the eight fleets distributed this way will have balanced strength." Tiancheng smiled.

Qin Ge jumped up, went to Tiancheng's side, balled up the data he had just written on paper, and threw it into the trash can.

Then he reached out and took Tiancheng's hand, saying, "Tiancheng truly lives up to being called the Sakura Empire's strategist; a few light words solved my worry, I'm really grateful."

"Being able to assist my lord is Tiancheng's honor. Cough..." He lightly coughed.

"Are you alright?" Qin Ge immediately reached out and patted Tiancheng's back.

Tiancheng shook his head, "My lord, don't worry, this is an old ailment. Moreover, if my lord truly cares for Tiancheng, please press forward with all your might... Your victory and smile are the best specific medicine for me."

"How could that be okay?" Qin Ge said, "Our fleet previously lacked many conditions, but now we have built the Nushen; when you have free time, go see her to monitor your physical condition—this is the best option."

"Hmm, my lord, Tiancheng understands." Tiancheng smiled.

Qin Ge nodded, then turned and picked up the communicator, "According to your suggestion, choosing the faction leaders is also very simple; next we'll summon them over and then reassign the fleets."

"Yes, my lord."

Qin Ge immediately used the communicator to connect with several other shipgirls, telling them to come to the conference room in the office area for a meeting, while he and Tiancheng walked toward the conference room.

Not long after Qin Ge arrived at the conference room, the eight shipgirls he had summoned arrived one after another.

These eight were respectively White Eagle's Enterprise, Royal's Monarch, Iron Blood's Bisimai, Sakura Empire's Zhang Men, Sardinian Empire's Weineituo, Free Iris's Lisailiu, Donghuang's Zhenhai, and Northern Union's Soviet Russia.

Seeing everyone sit down, Qin Ge said, "You all should know this from the past two days; I summoned forty shipgirls this time, and our fleet count has exceeded a hundred."

Therefore, to make fleet command more orderly and to let newly joined shipgirls integrate faster into our fleet environment, I plan to disband the original six fleets entirely and reselected eight fleet leaders.

These eight fleet leaders are precisely the eight of you present; afterward, you will each re-select the shipgirls belonging to your fleets.

One point is essential: when choosing, prioritize shipgirls with low proficiency. Main force and vanguard shipgirls must take turns selecting; I believe you can understand my meaning.

"Comrade Commander, can we also select shipgirls across factions?" Soviet Russia asked.

"Of course." Qin Ge nodded and said, "Just as our fleet previously proposed the mixed formation concept, we will try to keep the strength of the eight fleets at a balanced level, so as to ensure that during sorties, low-proficiency shipgirls can receive better development."

"Understood." The others nodded.

"But our proficiency... especially Zhang Men and Russia's." Zhenhai said to Qin Ge.

Qin Ge smiled, glanced at everyone, "Among you present, aside from Zhang Men, Soviet Russia, and Zhenhai having lower proficiency levels, the rest have already reached full proficiency."

Afterward, I will raise the proficiency levels of those three to full proficiency, to ensure each fleet's strength remains balanced.

So there's no need to worry; next, according to seating order, we'll proceed clockwise to begin selecting each fleet's members.

"Yes!" Everyone nodded.

Enterprise spoke first, "I'll pick Baltimore first."

"Spee." Bisimai said lightly.

"London." Monarch said.

"Kaohsiung." Zhang Men said.

"Bora." Weineituo smiled.

"Tartu." Lisailiu said.

"Anshan." Zhenhai said.

"Suffolk." Soviet Russia said.

After the first round of selection ended, the second round immediately followed.

"Massachusetts."

"Gneisenau."

"Warspite."

"Kongou."

"Victory."

"Dunkeerk."

"Fearless."

"Longxiang."

Immediately after, the third round, fourth round… began.

However, perhaps due to intentional or unintentional reasons, Iron Blood's fleet composition turned out very complete, while the compositions of several other fleets were torn apart into disarray.

However, almost every fleet ensured the presence of an awakened shipgirl, and aside from the super‑scale existences Akagi and Kaga not counting, the remaining fleets' overall configurations are very balanced.

This also counts as Qin Ge completing his biggest worry; seeing all fleets settled, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Afterwards, Qin Ge said to everyone, "Since you have now finished selecting all personnel and your fleets are formed, next you will each notify them to be in place.

Additionally, two command ships will arrive at port this afternoon, so our preparations will also begin today; then tomorrow noon, we will commence the sortie."

"Understood, Commander." Everyone nodded.

"Because new members have joined our fleet this time, our fleet's target will temporarily not advance to the Corrosion Level Five sea area; we will first raise the proficiency of the newly arrived shipgirls in the Four Seasons sea area, then form coordinated operations with the fleet before proceeding to the Level Five sea area." Qin Ge said to everyone.

"Moreover, when necessary, two fleets can cooperate to advance to the Level Five sea area, which both ensures our fleet's strength and greatly consolidates the proficiency of the new shipgirls."

"Yes."

Seeing everyone agree, Qin Ge nodded in satisfaction and then had everyone return to prepare.

As they were leaving, he gave the naval exercise data separately to Zhang Men, Soviet Russia, and Zhenhai, who had not yet reached full proficiency, so they could raise their proficiency levels to full.

This way, today's main work is finally finished; the rest will be much easier to handle.

As the news of the fleet reorganization spread to all shipgirls' ears, everyone had little reaction.

After all, the fleet has been in a mixed configuration since its inception, and all positions can be adjusted at any time; the basic formation will not change.

Therefore, there will be no problem of everyone's positions becoming chaotic after reorganization, causing the formation to be inconsistent.

Thus, with supplies, oil, and other things prepared, the next morning after everyone got up and had breakfast, they began boarding and sailing toward the Corrosion Level Four sea area……
