The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

Huang Chen quickly scanned the document and took a rough look. There was nothing that needed to be modified by him, so he signed his name at the end.

"Then there is the construction of the port area, which needs to be discussed with the commander." Enterprise took the document, returned to his desk and put it away, then took out a large map and walked to the coffee table and handed it to Tiancheng.

Hood cleaned up the coffee table so that Tiancheng could spread the map out on it.

"This is a map of the nearby waters. The red line covers the area under Xiaodao's responsibility, which is considered ordinary waters. There are no shipping routes, no other islands, and no habitats for large-scale commercial fish within the area."

"Then there's the battle situation. The Outer Expansion directly borders the Dangerous Sea, so the pressure is slightly greater than in ordinary waters. According to previous statistics, there are three to five battles per week. Most of them involve mass-produced Sirens, whose training level generally does not exceed 50. No humanoid Sirens have yet appeared."

"It's a day's journey from Heishui, the closest location in the C3 area, a day and a half's journey from Landian, where the C3 area's shipgirl headquarters is located, and a day's journey from Ningyang, where the C1 shipgirl headquarters is located."

"Then there are other port areas. Beyond the dangerous sea area, they are directly adjacent to the front line and are directly managed by the Shipgirls Headquarters. There are no other port areas. There is a port area half a day's journey inland. There is not much contact, but the Commander can try to visit it later."

“That’s probably the surrounding area.”

Chapter 523 The So-called Front Line

The company was briefly introduced and a folder was handed to Huang Chen.

It contains more specific information that has been statistically analyzed.

While looking at the information and listening to the company's introduction, he silently analyzed the situation of the island in his mind.

He had learned some of this information from Guanghui before, such as the location of the island and the scope of regional planning.

For example, the small island belongs to the ordinary sea area and there are no key protected objects.

In his opinion, these are all plus points of the island. Although he is not afraid of fighting, he does not want to be in a place full of danger.

Secondly, there are no objects in the area that require special protection, such as shipping routes, other islands inhabited by humans, etc.

This also avoids the possibility of other conflicts. After all, the more people there are, the more problems there will be and the more accidents will occur.

At the same time, the responsibility you bear will not be too great.

Of course, this is also a common feature of commanders of self-built ports. As a place where they can legally retreat in the event of a large-scale Siren attack, the KanColle headquarters will naturally not divide out too important areas.

What surprised him was that the outer extension of the sea area directly touched the dangerous sea area and then directly bordered the front line, which made him a little concerned.

Isn't it said that the front line is below the C1 area?

Thinking of this, he immediately pointed at the map on the coffee table and asked, "So this place is so close to the front line?"

"No." Enterprise asked in confusion. He leaned over to take a look and then smiled. "Ah, so that's it. Commander, you misunderstood. This isn't the front line."

"Isn't this the front line?" Huang Chen was stunned, feeling that the company was bullying him.

It's clearly written on this map that this is the front line, and you just said that this is the front line, so why is it not the front line now?

"Uh..." Enterprise scratched his head. Before he could say anything, Hood beside him explained softly, "This isn't the front line in our usual sense."

"Usually?" Huang Chen looked over and found that the girl was pointing at a place on the map, below Area C1, close to the deep sea.

"When we usually talk about the front line, we actually mean here," the girl explained.

Huang Chen looked carefully and found that although the place where Hood pointed and the place not far from the island were both marked as the front line, the surrounding areas were extremely dangerous abyss waters, but the colors of the front lines were very different.

The color of the area where Hood's finger is pointing is deep red, while the color of the front line not far from the island is orange-red.

"So there's a difference?" Huang Chen said blankly. He felt like he had learned some new knowledge, but at the same time he was a little confused. They were both the front lines to block the Sirens in the Abyss Sea, so why would there be a difference?

"The Abyss Sea is different from other seas. After the Sirens there are born, they will not blindly attack the land, but will gather in three places." Hood explained.

"Gather?" Huang Chen asked in confusion. Will Sirens also gather?

"That's right, they gathered, as if they were following some order. This is one of them. The other two places are in Area S and Area O."

Hood nodded, taking a small world map handed to him by Enterprise and marking a few points on it.

Huang Chen watched and couldn't help but open his mouth wide. Although he had lived in this world for a long time and even fought against the Sirens many times, this was the first time he heard the news about the division of the front line, which shocked him.

"so……"

"So although this is the front line, it's a secondary front line. There won't be any Sirens attacking here." Enterprise explained, "Of course, to be prepared for any eventuality, there will still be a KanColle headquarters or port area stationed there. We are one of the KanColle headquarters party stations here."

Huang Chen nodded, only realizing that he was lacking in some of the fundamentals of command. Many things he didn't use on a daily basis, and no one mentioned them, so he had no way to fill in the gaps unless he systematically studied them.

He knew before that the front line of area C was below area C1, but he had never thought about it before. Why would the front line be gathered in such a place below area C1?

After all, there are no strategic locations to defend on the sea, no strongholds or mountain passes, so how could the front line be there?

But I didn't expect it to be such a reason.

but……

"Why do those sirens gather in these three places instead of other places?" Huang Chen raised his question.

"We don't know the exact answer yet." Enterprise shook his head. "But here in Nanyang, everyone generally believes that it's because of the Purifiers."

"Purifier." Huang Chen was stunned and his expression became strange. He seemed to have dreamed about this guy last night.

"Purifiers." Hood pointed his finger below Area C1, then to Area S. "Erasers and Builders."

Finally, he pointed his finger at the sea area between Area O and Area A. "Observers and testers."

Huang Chen swallowed and found that the places where Hood pointed were exactly the places where the Sirens would gather on their own initiative.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Could it be that these humanoid sirens are also gathering towards these points?"

"I'm not sure, but I can't rule out this possibility," Hood said.

Tiancheng thought for a moment, choosing his words carefully. "If these experimenters were also affected by that unknown attraction, then the problem would be even more terrifying."

Huang Chen nodded. At this stage, the Sirens mentioned above are the top Sirens. If they were also attracted there, it means that there are other more terrifying things at work.

From this perspective, it would be better if they attracted the Siren, which is still understandable.

But even so…

"I always feel like there is a big conspiracy." Huang Chen shook his head and suddenly had an idea. He wanted to look at the history of these years and the history of the struggles between those sea areas from the appearance of the Sirens to the present.

I wonder whether this strange property existed from the beginning or appeared later.

"If the Abyssal Sea Sirens hadn't gathered on their own initiative, the front wouldn't be like this now. We could just fight in these three locations." Nagato sighed, "Even if there's a conspiracy, there's nothing we can do."

Huang Chen couldn't help but imagine, considering the Sirens' situation, if they really did what they wanted, gathering wherever they wanted on the vast ocean, and then attacking shipping routes and land, the world would probably become even more turbulent, right?

"Let's continue with our previous discussion." Huang Chen sighed and looked at the information in his hand. Apart from this question, there was nothing else worth mentioning. Most of them were minor details.

If we must say that there is a nearby port area, Tiancheng suggested to pay a visit later, but he didn't care too much and planned to discuss this after the port area was fully built.

"Then it's a matter of communicating with the KanColle headquarters, right?" Huang Chen said, taking another folder from Enterprise's hand.

Chapter 524: Where does the Commander plan to live next?

As Huang Chen spoke, he pulled out a chair and sat down, placing the folder in his hand on the table.

These are all relevant information about the self-built port area, which were collected and sorted by Guanghui before, and then summarized after some discussions between Hood and the enterprise.

It includes the steps for building your own port, application conditions, how to apply, the commander's powers and obligations, etc.

After these basics, the application plan will be discussed with the company and others.

The island belongs to the C3 zone in regional planning, so in theory the application should be made here.

But the problem is that Huang Chen’s port area is different from ordinary port areas, and it is also different from ordinary commanders who want to apply for self-built port areas. The C3 Ship Girl Headquarters may not be able to handle his affairs.

He had discussed the relevant matters with Hood before, and the final answer was to go to Area C1, to the headquarters of the KanColle headquarters.

The results of the corporate discussions were similar, but specific plans, schedules, etc. were provided.

Huang Chen took a quick look and didn't offer any suggestions. He just familiarized himself with the process, because most of the content didn't even require him to do it himself.

The key is that he must personally participate in the commander training.

Hood actually didn't know much about this, but Guanghui had collected information in advance.

When this project was first proposed, it was as an optional option. The commander of the self-built port area can go or not. Even if he does not go, it is not a big problem, but there will be some restrictions on the choice of sea area.

But now it has become a must and one has to pass the training to get the commander certificate.

It is said that the KanColle headquarters is considering reducing the quota for self-built port areas. The application difficulty has become increasingly greater, and in some areas, it is even impossible to apply.

But these are not problems for Huang Chen.

However, these matters will have to wait until next month, when they return from New Jersey.

Huang Chen glanced through the document in his hand, put it aside, and took another folder handed to him by the enterprise.

"This is the clue and information about our companions in Areas C1 and C2."

He nodded and took a brief look. He knew all of this and was just doing another statistics.

"So, I have to go to area C2 and then to area C1?" Huang Chen took a quick look and saw that the last page was the suggestions of the secretary ships.

"You can also let Tiancheng and I go in place of the commander. The main reason is that they may have some luggage and perhaps some other matters." Enterprise said.

"I'll go." Huang Chen put it aside and stacked it on top of the folder. This one would have to wait until next month.

"And then there's the last thing, the port planning," Enterprise said, pulling out the last folder, while Hood plopped the map of the island on the coffee table.

"This is the current plan for the island," the girl explained.

Huang Chen looked over and was a little surprised.

Although the Windward had circled the island for most of the day, and I had also circled the island once and had a rough map in mind, it was still a bit surprising to see this plan.

I didn't expect this island to be so big.

At this point, the various buildings, dormitories, playgrounds, libraries, castles, gardens, warehouses, docks, etc., together occupy less than one-tenth of the island's area.

The southwest, west, and northwest sides of the island are covered with hills, while the rest of the north side is covered with dense forests. The vast lawn is on the east side of the island, where the silly white castle is located.

The pier is on the southeast side, and most of the buildings on the island are within this southeast side.

"This is the creek lake. Here is the playground and other recreational facilities, and then here is the accommodation area." Hood explained briefly.

"Right now, our dock is more than adequate, and these recreational buildings, like the playground and library, are basically adequate as well. We can consider expansion, but it's not our top priority."

"It's mainly about the dormitory."

Huang Chen nodded. The main problem now was that there were not enough dormitories, so the girls could only live in the Yingfeng.

"This is the result of our discussion," Hood said, pointing to several blank areas centered on the playground on the map. "We'll mark these areas out for dormitory use."

"Then we calculate everyone's needs and build apartments, single-family houses, etc. in these areas according to demand. This will serve as a basis for everyone to choose from."

"If you are not satisfied with these, you can provide a separate house design and choose the location yourself, and we will hire someone to build it later."

Huang Chen nodded and looked at Nagato, "Do you have any ideas?"

This was the result of a discussion between Enterprise Amagi and Hood, but at that time Nagato was probably still having dinner with Huang Chen in the cafeteria on the Windward.

"I, I don't have any objection." Nagato sat upright on the sofa, his hands on his knees, looking well-behaved.

"This plan is good." Huang Chen touched his chin and thought silently.

First, count the needs. For example, Yorktown Enterprises Bumblebee and Harman Sims probably want to live in a single-family house or a five-bedroom apartment.

For example, Fletcher, who has so many sisters, would like to live in a villa with many rooms or even a small dormitory.

It depends on everyone's needs.

At the same time, these areas are almost the same distance from infrastructure such as playgrounds, canteens, and libraries. The specific distances are certainly different, but they are within a reasonable range.

"Very good." Huang Chen nodded, and then raised his own question, "If I choose my own location, can I choose freely? Are there any restrictions?"

"Choose anything you like, as long as it's within these areas," Hood explained.

"Okay." Huang Chen expressed his understanding. "Then let's leave the dormitories as they are for now. Then we'll expand some facilities. A playground, a cafeteria, and an amusement park."

Huang Chen looked through them one by one. Most of them were just plans, determining the location and area. The specific details would have to wait until the dormitory issue was resolved.

"Then there are other entertainment needs, like movie theaters and martial arts halls, but we can put that aside for now... Have you discussed it yet?"

As he spoke, he suddenly looked at the girls in front of him and smiled.

"Let's talk about it for a moment," Enterprise said with a smile. "It's the same idea as before on Windward. Apart from the infrastructure, everyone can apply for it themselves, and the port area will provide the materials for construction. Just like those function rooms."

"This costs much more than a function room." Huang Chen sighed and stood up. "Then there's nothing to do today, right?"

"Almost." Enterprise nodded, but as if he suddenly remembered, "There's one more thing."

"What?" Huang Chen turned around and realized that Hu De and Tian Cheng were both staring at him silently for some reason. Only Nagato looked around in confusion.
