Chapter 514: Lock on the target, Guam!
Just when Qin Ge and Hai Tian were chatting excitedly, there was a knock on the door.
Haitian gave Qin Ge an apologetic look, then went to open the door and saw Frederick the Great standing outside.
"Hello, Frederick the Great." Hai Tian said with a smile.
"Hello, child, is my child in there?" asked Frederick the Great.
Although this sentence is very confusing, Hai Tian knows that Frederick the Great is looking for Qin Ge. So he nodded and said, "The commander is inside, Frederick the Great, please come in."
"Um."
Frederick the Great smiled and nodded, then walked into the office and saw Qin Ge looking towards the door.
"Haha, my child, how do you feel these two days?" Frederick the Great said with a smile.
Qin Ge smiled awkwardly, "It feels good to see that everything is moving forward steadily in the direction of reform, but I'm just a little too idle."
Frederick the Great smiled and said, "Isn't this good? It not only liberates ourselves, but also puts the entire fleet in very good condition. Isn't this the purpose of our reform?
My child, you are in this situation now because the reform has only been going on for a short time and you have not yet adapted to the previous pace. After a while, you will be able to adapt to this kind of life and you will not feel bored anymore. "
Qin Ge nodded, "Yes, I will adapt as soon as possible, but Frederick the Great, you didn't come here to see me today, right? Is there anything?"
"There are indeed some things." Frederick the Great said, "Currently, everything in our fleet is operating normally, and this period is relatively stable.
So I came here to suggest that my children can take advantage of this period of time to summon more ship girls and expand the size of our fleet again.
Later, when we go to the front line, we don’t have to be controlled by others, but we can create our own port and front line.”
"Create a front line for yourself?" Qin Ge looked at Frederick the Great with a smile on his face in surprise.
"Yes." Frederick the Great then walked to the sea chart beside him and pointed to an area of sea along the Pacific Ocean and said, "The coastline of Donghuang is basically a sea area of erosion level 2, and if you push it out a little, it is a sea area of level 3.
The Sun Moon Island where we are located is right between the second-level and third-level sea areas. To the east of the Sun Moon Island is the third-level sea area, and to the west is the second-level sea area.
Donghuang's current front-line command is located in Ryukyu, while Sakura Empire's current front line is located in the Izu Islands. Donghuang also has a front-line base on Zengma Island, but the Sirens there are not as strong as those in the Pacific Ocean.
If we squeeze together with them, there will definitely not be enough resources to distribute, and we will not be able to play the advantages of our awakened ship girls, so I think there is a place in the Pacific Ocean that is more suitable for us, where we can form the front line. "
Frederick the Great put his finger on a location on the map, and Qin Ge shouted when he saw this location, "Guam!?"
"Yes, it is here." Frederick the Great said, "Although Guam is close to the center of the Pacific Ocean, I found out from the logs of the Eastern Glory and Sakura Empire that the erosion level there is not high, basically between the erosion level 4 and erosion level 5 sea areas.
But it is very close to the erosion level 6 and erosion level 7 sea areas, which is very suitable for the development of our fleet."
"But what about supplies? It's quite far away from Donghuang, Sakura Empire, and the Pan-Asian countries. Oil supplies, food supplies, etc. are all problems." Qin Ge said incisively.
Frederick the Great smiled and said, "Isn't our fleet cooperating with other camps? Although it was called surveillance before, if we occupy the position of Guam, then we can turn cooperation into real cooperation."
Qin Ge stood up puzzledly, walked to Frederick the Great and asked, "What do you mean?"
“Guam’s location is strategic, and it can enter the erosion level 6 and erosion level 7 waters at any time to obtain resources, and these resources are out of reach for the other major camps.
Although they also have the ability to enter these waters to obtain them, the long battle line makes them dare not act rashly, so they can only rely on the front line and occasionally enter to obtain some resources.
But we don't have this concern. We don't have to consider the long coastline, and we don't have to consider issues such as the public opinion of the camp.
We just need to attack and constantly improve ourselves, and these things are exactly our by-products.
So at this time we have capital, and we can use this capital to make real deals with other camps. By then, these things will not be a problem.
In addition, the Iron Blood Camp and the White Eagle Camp have recently been working together to tackle the problem of oil refining . Once there are results, we won’t have to worry about oil supply issues outside.
And, my child, have you forgotten the cat?" Frederick the Great reminded.
"Akashi?" Qin Ge said after a moment of surprise.
"Yes, I've been to her grocery store. Her ability is very special. As long as her mark is left, she can reach the place instantly." Frederick the Great said, "So we can also trade with her. As long as there are supplies and special materials to provide, don't you think she won't transport things there in an endless stream?"
Qin Ge touched his chin and nodded, "Frederick the Great, you reminded me that as long as this cat opens a shop, she can appear at any time, and as long as the price is high, she can sell anything.
I even feel like she could sell her own if the price was high enough.”
Frederick the Great smiled and said, "So my child, all your concerns before are irrelevant. The most important thing now is for us to have an invincible fleet.
Although we have actually reached this level now, if we want to cooperate with the nine major camps and lead the direction of this world, we must have power.
Now is our best period of development. We can use one or even two years to train a large number of ship girls to their full level and cultivate a group of awakened ship girls.
When everything is ready, it will be time for us to leave Donghuang and head to Guam!"
Qin Ge nodded, "This plan is indeed feasible, but how can guarantee that the other commanders of the Grand Fleet will follow us there?"
"Haha, Bismarck and Soviet Russia have already done work in this regard. After a while, they will be loyal to our fleet." said Frederick the Great.
Qin Ge showed a trace of pity on his face, "Is this really okay?"
"My child, please remember that when talking about the future, do not let any emotion enter your mind. Look at it with absolute rationality. Any emotion mixed in will affect your judgment!"
