Chapter 886: Meeting at the Public Port Area
In the meeting room of the public port area, Qin Ge had already come here for the second time. The first time he came, he confirmed the construction process of the public port area. The second time he came here, the project had already progressed about halfway, and the most important communications tower facility had also been built.
This was also the most important reason for his coming here; the links with all major factions had already been established, and next would be the meeting concerning the previously reported information.
"Commander, the connection is complete; we can start anytime." Enterprise walked over and said to Qin Ge.
"Hmm, good." Qin Ge nodded, "Then let's begin this meeting."
"Yes."
Following Enterprise's response, the data projection link was quickly connected; the previously empty meeting room saw several phantoms suddenly flicker into existence, gradually becoming clear as they took seats in the surrounding chairs.
"Long time no see, Commander Qin Ge." The speaker who spoke first was Enterprise from White Eagle, smiling and relaxed.
"Long time no see, everyone." Qin Ge smiled, and the others also exchanged greetings.
"Now that the greetings are over, Commander Qin Ge, please start today's meeting." The Soviet Alliance spoke.
"Hmm." Qin Ge nodded, "I presume the information that the envoys of each faction were asked to notify you has already been delivered?"
After hearing Qin Ge's words, everyone nodded. Yixian said, "Along the coastal areas surrounding Donghuang, a new type of Siren mass-produced fleet has been spotted, and according to the report of the discovering commander, the combat power of these new mass-produced vessels is not low, especially some of the main ships, which have already completely surpassed what they can handle."
"Although those mass-produced ships operate only according to set procedures, their firepower is excessively strong, so we must implement a grand fleet formation to annihilate them; otherwise, we stand no chance."
"The Sakura Empire is the same, and their numbers are also greater; basically, the encounters are with medium-sized fleets or even large-sized fleets. We have already begun implementing a handling plan led by awakened shipgirls; otherwise, relying on ordinary commanders would only increase casualties needlessly." Zuikaku said with a hint of headache.
"The White Eagle side is the same; fortunately, thanks to Commander Qin Ge's timely notice, we early on contracted our formation for defense, and so far we have not suffered major losses—this already exceeds expectations." Enterprise said.
The other factions also expressed their views; this new type of Siren mass-produced fleet brought them considerable shock, but fortunately it did not cause major casualties, and under a full-defense strategy they can still fight with ease.
"Hmm, I have received the latest news: this Siren mass-produced fleet is targeting you all, so you must stay alert, raise your vigilance twelvefold. It would be best to conduct near‑shore patrols, focusing on driving off enemy ships, not greed for petty gains, and beware of them laying traps for you." Qin Ge said.
"Where did Commander Qin Ge get this information?" Bisimai of Iron Blood asked doubtfully.
"The Purifiers." Qin Ge said calmly.
"So, is the information provided by the Sirens reliable?" King George V asked.
Qin Ge nodded, "Reliable. How to put it? My fleet's strength has already exceeded the limits of this world. The experimental agency is still interested in me, but it will no longer conduct experiments on me, because the cost is too high, so they have shifted their target onto you."
"And the agency that will replace the experimental agency in sanctioning me is the arbitration agency we encountered during our previous battle. For now they have not made a move, but once they do, it will be a world‑shattering battle. That is why I can confidently tell you that their target this time is you."
"I know some of you may dismiss this, thinking the experimental agency has always experimented on you, so it must be the same now, but I still want to warn you that the situation has completely changed."
"After this world became the Main World, the experimental agency's granted permissions will increase, and their upgrades will be very obvious; in just over two years they have already gone through three generations of mass‑produced types."
"The pressure is far greater than before, so I hope you can get serious; preferably form a joint defense with neighboring factions. If they ever launch a total attack or provoke you, an offensive‑defensive alliance will be far better than a single faction fighting alone."
"And for that reason, near my port area where the communications tower was built, I have constructed this public port area. From now on, whenever your fleets come here they can rest, resupply, or even station within this port."
"Now the battle is no longer between factions but between Azure Lane and the Sirens. I believe we must join forces, discard all previous contradictions, and only then can we survive in this world; otherwise, our only fate is destruction."
After Qin Ge finished speaking, the hall fell silent; all faction leaders weighed the gains and losses, also considering the feasibility of Qin Ge's words. After all, as leaders of their factions they must be responsible for their own factions and all their people, and must handle internal faction affairs—they cannot be like Qin Ge, for whom the port area is his will.
After a short while, Enterprise nodded, "Commander Qin Ge is right; we indeed need to unite now. Facing one or two Siren mass‑produced new fleets is already somewhat taxing for us, and if a large‑scale Siren fleet attacks, the pressure we face will be incomparable to before."
"Moreover, the proposal for a public port area is excellent; I will also implement it in White Eagle."
"The Northern Union has no objection either; the current state of this world is such that we can only hope through self‑preservation, and the best way to preserve ourselves is to form an alliance, which will give us an advantage against the enemy and ensure victory."
"Then may I ask, Commander Qin Ge, what are your plans? The Sirens' attack this time is aimed at us, while your fleet is currently outside combat; what will be your future direction?" Bisimai of Iron Blood asked.
"I need time; I need enough time to raise my strength so that I can match the arbitration agency when it arrives. Even so, if any of your factions encounter an insurmountable problem, you can of course contact my port area, and I will send personnel to give you the strongest possible assistance." Qin Ge said.
"Hmm, with Commander Qin Ge's words, I can rest easy." Bisimai of Iron Blood said, "I will specially select a port to set up the public port area, and I also welcome you to notify Iron Blood if you run into trouble; guaranteeing Iron Blood's safety, we will surely provide swift support."
"Hmm, the Sardinian Empire is the same."
