The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

"...Would you like some sugar?"

……

On the way to the command bureau meeting room, Lin Shen met Jiang Qi Kawana who was walking out of the dormitory area.

"Did you rest well?"

Lin Shen walked over and greeted him with a smile, which was a change from his usual style.

"……fine."

Jiang Qi Kawana subconsciously took a half step back, then reached out and touched his arms.

Suddenly I felt a little cold... Maybe it's because Bingye is close to the Northern Union.

I forgot to add clothes.

Jiang Qi Kawana thought so and was very reluctant to attribute the reason to Lin Shen.

But the latter continued.

"You also received the notice for the meeting? Together?"

"……it is good."

The two walked side by side towards the meeting room.

There were not many people on the road.

"You should already know that, right?"

"……what do you know?"

Jiang Qi replied in a stiff tone.

At the same time, I began to wonder in my heart.

As expected, I was noticed... Is this considered a poor student?

Jiang Qi felt that the pressure from Lin Shen was even greater than that from the dean of Hanning College.

And it's hard to explain, it seems even more dangerous...

A sense of danger that is closer to reality.

It was as if if you said something wrong, the other person might put a knife to your neck in the next second.

"I picked up a few ship girls from outside the ice field."

"...Yes, I heard Jie Cheng talk about it."

"Really? What did she say?"

"She asked me if Henning had the habit of sending ship girls to operate near Hiino..."

"I see, there have been examples like this before. After all, the connecting route between Hanning and Hiyano also needs to be cleaned by the ship girls from time to time. And, it has been like this until now. It's just that Hiyano can't spare any extra manpower, so this obligation has been taken care of by Hanning."

Lin Shen said a lot with a smile.

"Is that so?"

"Yes, that's what I told her."

You can just ask around and find out about this kind of thing.

Most people don't pursue it too much.

Because it is very common for commanders to salvage ship girls who are performing combat missions on their own.

Not every commander is rich enough to spend money on buying cubes for construction.

"That's good, I thought you would forget about it."

"how could be……"

Jiang Qi's expression also became stiff, and she tried her best to appear calm.

To be honest, she didn't want to get involved in this matter at all.

——Ahhhh, less trouble is better, I know nothing!!!

Jiang Qi Kawana thought in her heart.

Fortunately, the Bingye Command Center was not large, and the two of them soon arrived at the meeting room.

The room was already full of commanders.

The entire conference room was quite large, but there were only a handful of commanders sitting here, about thirty people.

Lin Shen now understood how much Bingye was short of manpower.

No wonder they even dare to hire interns who haven’t graduated yet.

"Everyone here? Let's get started."

Sitting at the end of the long conference table was a man wearing Donghuang military uniform.

He looked to be in his thirties, with a face weathered by war.

——This is strange.

At least it's strange now.

Because it is normal for commanders nowadays to have delicate skin and tender flesh.

After all, he won't be at the front line in person.

Could it be the commander from decades ago... No, the commanders who survived that time must be in their seventies or eighties now.

And only one in ten survives.

The person in front of me probably also has other special experiences.

He is a practical man and his physical skills should be quite strong. Even in a tightly wrapped military uniform, the curves of his muscles are still visible.

While Lin Shen was observing him, the man also glanced over.

The two people's eyes met in mid-air.

"Since there are new people here, I'll introduce myself first." After staring at Lin Shen for a while, the man casually glanced at Jiang Qi Kawana who was sitting next to Lin Shen, and then said: "I am Jiang Yuecheng, the director of the Bingye Command Bureau. However, although it is called the Command Bureau, you two should have heard of it. Bingye is considered the fifth district. Due to special circumstances, the district government has not been established for the time being. Therefore, the Command Bureau can essentially be regarded as a security contracting bureau, not a government department."

47. Situation

Security Contracting Bureau?

It sounds like a privately owned department.

However, there is actually no essential difference between private and public.

Lin Shen thought in his heart.

It makes no difference to him anyway.

Get paid when you deserve it, and work when you deserve it.

only--

If it is private, it is very convenient to do other things.

After all, it is a personal action and personal responsibility, and has nothing to do with anyone else.

"You should all know the situation." After briefly introducing himself, Jiang Yuecheng's eyes swept to the other commanders, "The Siren has surrounded Bingye."

"Well... I heard there are a lot of troops?" a commander asked hesitantly.

Obviously, he didn't know how much this "a lot" was.

There is a shortage of manpower and people responsible for intelligence, so it is often slow to obtain intelligence.

In fact, they may not realize what is happening until someone hits them in the face.

But there is no way around it. Anyway, other mature and stable safe zones don't have much advantage in detecting the movements of the Siren.

"A lot." Jiang Yuecheng repeated the word, and then said: "According to preliminary estimates, the total number is about 300,000."

"Three hundred thousand?!"

This number almost made all the commanders present stand up.

"No way? Is this remote and poor place like ours worthy of the Siren sending out 300,000 troops?!"

One of them asked with a look of disbelief on his face.

"I know you are surprised, but don't be surprised yet." Jiang Yuecheng himself was very calm. He raised his hand to suppress the people who had stood up and asked them to sit down: "These 1 are just the vanguard troops, and they are all mass-produced Type , which are the ones you often see."

Generally speaking, the most commonly used units by Siren are very cheap mass-produced combat units.

This is basically what is used in general combat.

Only on a few occasions—

During the "Dark Ages", when wars were the most intense and cruel, the Siren barely deployed mass-produced Type 2 combat units.

Lin Shen knew all these, but in his understanding, those mass-produced "small monsters" were basically ships.

However, in order to facilitate land marches, it has now become the appearance of a person carved out of a mold.

These things are killing machines created for war. On the human side, they are "clone" ship girls.

Speaking of which, the appearance of the replica was really thanks to the Siren.

Because Siren's production capacity is a bit too exaggerated...

Their favorite tactic is the most brainless human wave tactic.

As long as the number of mass-produced Type 1 can be used to stack them, other combat units will never be used.

So far, humans have not been strong enough to force the other side to use stronger combat power——

Even so, humans have become much stronger now compared to decades ago.

Even a safe zone was created.

And then...and that's all.

He just guarded his own little piece of land and never went out again.

Anyway, we should be thankful as long as the Siren doesn't attack us actively.

What else do you want? Are you asking for trouble?

"From what you mean, Siren will not use the mass-produced type 2?"

A commander's question interrupted Lin Shen's thoughts.

"Yes, according to reliable information, the shadow of the mass-produced Type 2 did appear behind the vanguard troops that the Siren gathered this time." Jiang Yuecheng nodded.

"Can I quit?" the commander who asked the question asked directly.

"Calm down..." Jie Cheng, who was standing next to Jiang Yuecheng, advised helplessly.

"How can I stay calm - that's the mass-produced Type 2 that only appeared a few decades ago!" The male commander covered his face with his hands and rested his elbows on the table.

"Are you trying to say that we are actually regressing compared to decades ago?" Jiang Yuecheng asked calmly instead of being angry.

"...Not really, but with the forces we have here, we can't stop them." The male commander's voice calmed down.

"I didn't say that we have to resist this number of enemies alone." Jiang Yuecheng said with ease: "If Bingye is breached, it will definitely not just be us who will have a headache. If the strength of the entire Bingye is taken into account, 300,000 Sirens will not be difficult to deal with."

"That's right... No matter what, they should cooperate with us on this matter." One person nodded, and then said, "Although 300,000 is just a vanguard force, how many troops will the Siren send to support us?"

"I don't know, but what is certain is that the number will not be less than 2 - mass production type ."

"Is this information... reliable?"

"It's unreliable, just a guess." Despite this, Jiang Yuecheng's tone was declarative, "Based on the Sirens' action patterns over the years, the fact that they were able to deploy the mass-produced Type 2 means that there is something on Bingye's side that they value very much. Moreover, once they have such an attitude, then is just a conservative estimate. Judging from the way those things like to use human wave tactics, the number of troops participating in this battle should not be less than one million."

"..."

The meeting room was completely silent.

A heavy atmosphere quickly descended.

Even Jiang Qi Kawana had forgotten to breathe since a while ago, and would take a deep breath from time to time, but very carefully.

The only ones who were not affected were Jiang Yuecheng and Lin Shen.
