Chapter 645: The War-torn East Huang Sea
The sky gradually brightened, and after a night of sailing, Qin Ge's fleet was getting closer and closer to Donghuang.
As Ning Hai said, the Siren should have placed all its main offensive forces in Shenhua City. Qin Ge's fleet did not encounter many Siren fleet interceptions on the way, and the few that were discovered were quickly cleared away by the ship girls.
"Commander, listen." Enterprise said to Qin Ge who was standing next to her, "It's the sound of fighting. We are getting closer and closer to Donghuang."
Qin Ge nodded, then took out a telescope and looked in the direction where the sound came from, but he couldn't see anything.
"Commander, stop looking. There is nothing on the radar screen. It is still far away from us." Zhenhai on the side said with a smile.
Qin Ge put down the telescope with a bit of embarrassment, "But this battle is too intense. I can hear some sounds even from such a distance."
"Yes, I'm a little worried. Even if we join, it won't change the situation of the entire battle." Guanghui said to Qin Ge.
"You can't say that. At the very least, we have to plan to become a surprise force." Qin Ge smiled, "And Enterprise, when will we enter Zhou Island?"
"About an hour later, it's now moving at full speed," Enterprise said.
"Yeah." Qin Ge nodded.
King George V of England frowned and said, "Don't you feel strange? We are so close to the coast of Donghuang, but we haven't seen the Siren Fleet. Although this is not the main battlefield, it is already the nearest offshore to Shenhua City."
"Not sure. We have been out of contact with Donghuang until now, and we have asked the Centaurs to release carrier-based aircraft to conduct large-scale reconnaissance. There shouldn't be any accidents before we reach Donghuang." Veneto said.
"I am worried that there may be unexpected events in the battle in Donghuang," said King George V of England.
"There's no point in worrying now. We can only understand the situation accurately after we enter Donghuang." Enterprise shook his head and said.
"It's almost there." Qin Ge said in a low voice while looking ahead.
After sailing for a while, Zhou Island appeared in front of Qin Ge and others. There were obvious traces of fighting here. The Siren wreckage floating on the sea and the command ship overturned on the sea all told of the fierceness of the previous battle.
Qin Ge frowned, "This place has also been lost."
"Yes, and according to the traces of battle, this place has been lost for some time, probably last night or earlier." Enterprise nodded and said.
"Hurry up, let's go around here and enter the port area of the Commander Academy. I feel there is trouble there again." Qin Ge said.
"Yes, Commander!"
Although Enterprise responded quickly, everyone on the ship knew that the speed of the entire command ship had already increased to the maximum and it was impossible to increase the speed no matter what.
"Commander, don't worry. Mikasa, Aurora and others are still inside the Commander Academy. As awakened ship girls, they won't let the Commander Academy fall so easily." Guanghui comforted Qin Ge.
"I know." Qin Ge nodded, "But along the way, how many command ships have we seen sink at sea? Every sunken command ship represents the fall of a commander. After this battle, Donghuang must have been seriously injured.
The trainee commanders in the Commander Academy are the flames of the future of Dunhuang. These flames must not be extinguished. They will be the hope of Donghuang in the future!"
"Commander, we will be there soon, and I believe that the Prince of Wales, as the dean, will also think of this, so they would rather sacrifice themselves than let the fire go out." Guanghui said.
"I know, I'm sorry, I was a little anxious for the moment. Tell everyone to get ready for battle. We may have to fight the Siren fleet soon ." Qin Ge said.
"clear!"
As the command ship continued to sail, the voice of the Centaur suddenly came from the silent communicator, "Report to the command ship, a large number of Siren fleets have been spotted 50 kilometers ahead. Their target of attack is the Commander Academy. Please give instructions!"
"Is that really the case?" Qin Ge and the ship girls looked at each other, and Enterprise said in the communicator, "Centaurus, what is the specific situation of the battle now?"
"The Siren's attack has been suppressing the Commander Academy's defense line and forcing it to retreat. The Commander Academy's defense line's counterattack is very weak and it looks like it won't last long." said the Centaur.
"Can we now combine with the aircraft carrier fleet to carry out long-range bombing on the enemy?" Qin Ge asked.
"Commander, if we do this, it will likely cause a disconnect between the aircraft carrier fleet and the main fleet, which will be detrimental to our breakthrough later." The Centaur responded.
"I understand. Please continue to monitor the battlefield situation and notify me ." Qin Ge responded.
"Yes, Commander!" said the Centaur.
After hanging up the communication, Enterprise said to the somewhat anxious Qin Ge, "Commander, we can organize a breakthrough in 20 minutes, so don't worry."
"I know." Qin Ge said as he looked at the sea in the distance.
At this time, near the sea of the Commander Academy, the dean, Prince of Wales, fired a cannon and retreated while saying into the communicator, "How long will it take for Canglong's reinforcements to arrive? We are almost unable to hold on here. Don't they know that the future of Donghuang is in the Commander Academy?"
"The defense line of Zhou Island collapsed too quickly. They should still be on their way here, Dean. The situation in other places is also very bad. The command center is already under tremendous pressure to send Canglong here." Cologne's voice came from the communicator.
"I know, but if we keep fighting and retreating like this, the Commander Academy will be right behind us." The Prince of Wales said anxiously, no longer as elegant as usual.
"Dean, why don't you withdraw first? These students simply don't listen to my advice. They are unwilling to leave the Commander Academy no matter what. And because you are all going to resist the Sirens, they are now spontaneously organizing themselves to go to the dock to prepare to fight the enemy." Cologne said.
"Nonsense!" Prince of Wales said angrily, "With their weight, are they still prepared to fight to the death? Even the elite fleets on the front line can't resist them, and they are relying on the ship girls who have just been summoned and whose training level has not been improved much?"
At this moment, a series of urgent voices rang out from the Prince of Wales' communicator, "Dean, there are breakers on the western front, requesting support."
"Got it, Yixian. Please, you and Ninghai and the others should hold out for a while. I'll be there soon." said the Prince of Wales.
"Yes, we will try our best to hold on." Yixian said.
The Prince of Wales frowned and switched the line. "Cologne, I now allow you to use force to suppress the situation. Make those ignorant students leave the academy's dock immediately, or you will teach them a lesson."
"clear!"
