Chapter 941: Pacific Offensive Launched

Seeing the Sakura Empire and White Eagle fleet girls before him, Qin Ge let out a breath, releasing the heart he had been holding.

Although he felt somewhat resigned that Sakura Empire had not reported their raid on the sea area, Qin Ge was not angry, just a little worried.

He felt relatively at ease with Tiancheng and Wuzang; Qin Ge believed that before the sea area raid operation, they had already given it careful thought. His only concern was the safety of the other fleet girls, after all not all of Sakura Empire's fleet girls had undergone ship conversion, and a small portion had not, yet they had already reached the front line.

However, having heard some news from the earlier Isuzu, although overall there was damage, the previous state of Biyu had not reappeared, which relieved Qin Ge.

Sorry to disturb your banquet, but I think this matter should be told to you in advance so you can make later deployments.

The Arbiter has now descended upon this world again; judging by her behavior, the time of the final battle is not far off. Therefore, before that, I need you to conquer the Pacific in a short time, confining the Sirens' activity range to the Pacific's center.

Qin Ge looked at the people before him and, without beating around the bush, spoke directly.

The White Eagle and Sakura Empire fleet girls exchanged a glance, each seeing solemnity in the other's eyes.

Yes, Commander!

The port district will reallocate forces, transferring the Northern Union's units to the North Pacific, and will assign two Yujin fleet ships to follow, so that when you encounter the Arbiter, even if you cannot win, you will have enough time to retreat. Qin Ge continued.

Then, my lord, will the Yujin fleet ships join our operation? Tiancheng asked.

Qin Ge shook his head: "If the Yujin fleet ships joined the battle, they would increase your combat pressure, which is not conducive to our large-scale offensive; the existence of the Yujin fleet ships is merely to remind you of this matter, and will not become your honor guard."

Understood, I believe we do not currently need such a reliance. Wuzang nodded.

Good, because the North and East Pacific battlefields have now formed a line, so whether you are Sakura Empire, White Eagle, or even the later-arriving Northern Union, you must conduct strategic and tactical deployments on the basis of joint external action.

I do not want to receive battle damage reports because of your internal squabbles. Remember, although your factions differ, your homes are the same, and your purposes are identical.

That is all I have to say; as for this operation report, after today's banquet please quickly compile it and send it to my office. Qin Ge said to the few people.

Yes, Commander.

Seeing the fleet girls' responses, Qin Ge nodded: "Then the communication ends; I will not disturb your victory celebration, and I must still notify the other factions. Finally, I must emphasize that if anything comes up, just let me know—I am not as inflexible as you think."

As the image flickered, Qin Ge had already hung up the communication, and his figure vanished before everyone's eyes.

The few exchanged glances, and North Carolina softly said, "The commander probably isn't angry, right?"

According to my observation, he probably isn't; otherwise the commander would not have reminded us to pay attention to unity, while saying nothing about decisions whatsoever. Said, "However, it is apparent that the lord looks rather anxious; it seems this situation is indeed quite serious."

Hmm, it seems our operation this time also meets the commander's expectations. Wuzang chuckled, then turned to Bunker Hill and said, "Furthermore, the commander's intention is surely understood by all of White Eagle; this time our North Pacific offensive sweep will likely have to be carried out together with your East."

This is absolutely no problem; the 58th Task Force detachment led by Xin ze xi is already stationed in the northeastern sea area, and can later join us in the offensive, plus the imminent arrival of the Northern Union, making it believable that the northern and eastern Pacific can be linked into a single offensive line. Bunker Hill said.

Hmm, logically speaking, if the Northern Union were dispatched to our side, we would expect White Eagle to send a corresponding faction as well; who do you think it would be? Wuzang asked with a smile.

Now Donghuang takes charge of the West Pacific sea area, Iron Blood the South Pacific sea area; the most likely support would be Royal assisting Donghuang to achieve control over the West Pacific and Southwest Pacific sea areas.

Sardinia assists Iron Blood to gain control of the South Pacific, while the most likely aid for White Eagle would be Iris, to achieve control of the East Pacific and Southeast Pacific.

As for our three factions, we are responsible for controlling the North Pacific and Northeast Pacific; in this way, as we draw near the Pacific's center, when the nine major factions converge, that will be the time of the decisive battle. Bunker Hill said.

Indeed, according to an analysis of strength and usual relations, such an allocation by the lord is truly feasible, and moreover it is the most suitable allocation. Said.

Then, should our offensive start tomorrow, or wait until the Northern Union arrives before beginning? Akagi asked from the side.

I think we should start from tomorrow; after all, the commander used an emergency communication this time, so we must tighten our schedule, and they will need two or three days to arrive—we cannot simply wait here for them. Said.

What do all of you of White Eagle think?

I agree; the Arbiter has now come to this world, we must seize some time to solidify regional control and response, and the Northern Union's companions should also understand our idea. Bunker Hill said.

Then that's settled; for now we will finish tonight's welcoming banquet before speaking further. Wuzang laughed.

Hehe, I think it's better to call it a victory banquet, after all we cannot steal your thunder; moreover we are more looking forward to holding a victory banquet in the port district after the sea area is pacified. North Carolina laughed.

Heh, I also very much look forward to such a victory banquet; then please, White Eagle's everyone, return to your seats with us. Wuzang said.

Please.

At the same time, Qin Ge contacted several other factions, just as Bunker Hill had previously predicted; his arrangement was: Donghuang and Royal take charge of the western and southwestern Pacific sea areas; Iron Blood and Sardinia take charge of the southern and southeastern Pacific sea areas; White Eagle and Iris take charge of the eastern and northeastern Pacific sea areas; as for the Northern Union, Sakura Empire, and White Eagle's task force detachment, they take charge of the northern and northwestern Pacific sea areas.

After finishing these, Qin Ge again had Binjiang and Wuzhi notify all major factions to sortie; by the time the last fleet girl detachment left the port, the bright moon was already high.

"Commander, can we achieve victory?" Binjiang stood beside Qin Ge, gazing at the departing fleet girls as he asked.

We will, and we must win!

Hmm.
