Chapter 370 Mobile Warfare
Qin Ge looked at the coastal defense map in front of him and frowned slightly.
Ever since Canglong brought him into the office and handed him the coastal defense map, Qin Ge knew how difficult this battle would be.
"The sea areas around us are now as shown on this coastal defense map. At present, all our erosion areas have increased by two levels of erosion.
This time, I'm afraid our coastal waters will face unprecedented pressure." Canglong said to Qin Ge.
"But I am a little confused. The Siren Tide was not like this before. Why did it suddenly become so huge this time? It has caught up with the Siren Tide encountered by several White Eagle camps."
Qin Ge smiled and said, "Doesn't Director Canglong know what happened before the Sakura Empire?"
"I know. Although this is a top secret event for ordinary people, people at our level are still aware of the situation." Canglong said without any reservation.
"It's very simple. Ever since the awakened ship girl Changchun from our headquarters launched missiles at the Purifier during the battle in Sakura Empire, it means that Donghuang's technology has reached a certain level.
At Siren, Donghuang and several other camps can be arranged together, which is why there is a larger-scale Siren Tide this time ." Qin Ge explained.
“Indeed, Donghuang had always been very low-key before, so the Siren Tide here has always been similar to that of the Sardinian Empire and the Iris Church.
This time it suddenly became so strong, I'm afraid this is the only possible reason." Canglong nodded.
Qin Ge nodded and said, "So this is also the reason why the Siren Tide continues to grow stronger this time. This time it will be a fierce battle. We must be prepared for the arrival of the Siren's advanced human form."
"You mean, there is a possibility that advanced Siren humanoids such as Purifiers or Testers will appear?" Canglong asked.
"I just said it's possible, which doesn't mean it will definitely happen. But we still need to take the necessary precautions." Qin Ge said.
Canglong nodded, "Well, the headquarters has already given me an order to notify the headquarters immediately if any abnormal situation is found near the coast.
I think they are worried about the emergence of a high-level Siren humanoid, just like you."
Qin Ge nodded, "That's true, but it's too early to say anything now. Our most important thing is to do a good job of coastal defense and prevent a Siren mass-produced warship from approaching our coastal waters."
"That's right, then the command work this time will be entirely handed over to you." Canglong smiled slightly and said to Qin Ge.
"Ah? Leave it all to me? Didn't we agree that I'm only here as a combat advisor?
I am good at making plans, but if you really let me take full control of the command, then I am sure I cannot handle some of the complicated things at the moment." Qin Ge quickly waved his hand and rejected Canglong's words.
"Haha, so humble, Qin Ge?" Canglong said with a smile.
"This is not a question of modesty or not. I know what my level is. I am OK at commanding operations, but I know almost nothing about other things.
So Director Canglong, I think it would be better if you take full command, and I make a series of deployments based on the situation on the battlefield. " Qin Ge said quickly.
"In that case, I won't force you. Speaking of battle planning, what tactics do you plan to use to deal with this battle this time?" Canglong asked.
Qin Ge glanced at the sea chart and said to Canglong, "Do we have the command of all the large fleets?"
Canglong nodded, "If you need, you can take command of all the military ship girls."
Qin Ge nodded, "That's easy."
"It seems that you have already made up your mind. What kind of plan is it? Tell me about it." Canglong asked.
Qin Ge pointed to the sea chart and said, "If the sea chart shows that the Siren Fleet is coming in large numbers, then it is definitely not a long-term solution for us to defend here. So why don't we all move?"
"Move?" Canglong asked doubtfully.
"That's right, conduct mobile warfare!" Qin Ge said, "The first line is set up a long distance away from the shore, and this space is the basis of our mobile warfare.
Use this combat space to buy time to move troops, surround the enemy and win a quick victory with superior forces.
The main thing is to avoid the enemy's main force, lure the enemy deep into our territory, and then concentrate superior forces to defeat them one by one."
"You mean, we should abandon our existing positions, use the large fleets as the combat center, and constantly harass and cut off the enemy's flanks, rear and other weak areas?
Then, will the Siren Fleet use this distance to drag them to death?" Canglong's eyes lit up and he said to Qin Ge.
"No, it's not about giving up our current position." Qin Ge shook his head, "Because our position is the last line of defense to protect the coastline, so we can't withdraw from this point.
The mobile warfare we are currently carrying out is a combination of partial positional warfare and guerrilla warfare, with mobile warfare as the main approach and positional warfare as the secondary approach.
The main principle is to fight if you can win, and to retreat if you can’t. All the movements are for the purpose of fighting, to create conditions for destroying the enemy.
In addition, I will recruit all the carrier girls in the large fleet to form a brigade of carrier girls. They are responsible for timely and accurate control of various situations on the battlefield, and all the actions of the Siren Fleet are in our hands.
Let us have absolute control over information while having air superiority. In this way, our various large fleets can correctly select targets for attack, actively create and capture opportunities, concentrate superior forces, adopt encirclement and detour tactics, and annihilate the enemy one by one.
This requires more unified command and more complex dispatch. That's why I said that I can only serve as a combat staff officer in this battle, and the real command position still depends on you, Director Canglong."
"Haha, before you came, I was still worried about how to deal with this sudden attack of the Siren Tide. But when you told me these tactics, I finally put a stone down in my heart.
Very beautiful tactics, indeed as you said, such precise command is not something that can be operated by one person. So don't worry, I will lead the entire Maritime Administration to support you in the actual operation of this campaign tactic. "Canglong smiled.
Qin Ge nodded, "And please ask Director Canglong to explain to the other commanders that this kind of mobile warfare must be carried out in a disciplined manner. When ordered to retreat, they must retreat quickly, and when ordered to attack, they must attack unexpectedly. Only in this way can the mobile warfare be maximized."
"Okay, I understand. Now that our tactics have been formulated, come with me to the mobilization meeting and let everyone see our combat staff for this war." Canglong said.
"yes!"
