According to the naming rules for the self-built warships of the resistance forces, all frigates are named after mythical birds, and the first ship is the series name of the entire series of warships.
Therefore, this series of frigates are collectively called Qingluan-class frigates. A total of four are currently in service, and the remaining eight will be commissioned within a month.
In the same way, the Wuluo currently in service and the three ships of the same class under construction are also collectively called Wuluo-class destroyers.
------
Speaking of which, among the captains of the four Qingluan-class frigates gathered here now, Jiang Xingchen has the lowest rank, only lieutenant colonel, while the other three are all colonels.
Moreover, except for Jiang Xingchen, the youngest among them is also 36 years old.
Therefore, the way the three of them looked at Jiang Xingchen at this moment was a little strange.
"Captain Jiang, although I heard that you are very young, I really didn't know that you were just 20 years old..."
Feng Di, the captain of the Bi Fang, said with a sigh.
The other two captains also nodded in agreement and also expressed sighs.
Speaking of which, Feng Di and Jiang Xingchen have one thing in common, that is...
Both of them used to be Luo Hao's first mate. The only difference was that Feng Di was Luo Hao's first mate when he was the captain of the Hope, while Jiang Xingchen was the first mate of the later Wuluo.
If it weren't for Jiang Xingchen's appearance, Luo Hao would have originally planned to take Feng Di aboard the Wuluo.
Although Feng Di had some thoughts at first about the fact that Jiang Xingchen's sudden appearance caused him to lose the opportunity to enter the Wuluo, he was relieved after that.
after all...
If Luo Hao was taken aboard the Wuluo ship, he would still be mostly serving as the first mate on the Wuluo ship, and would not be able to get a warship of his own, even just a frigate...
But at least he changed from first mate to captain, right?
This is just like a military rank. Most people will get stuck at the colonel level and cannot make any progress in their life, but as long as you can take this step and become a brigadier general.
Then, as long as he doesn't make any principled mistakes in the future, he can at least become a lieutenant general in the future.
There is such a similar hurdle between the first mate and the captain. Even if you serve as the first mate on a battleship, your future future is definitely not as good as that of serving as the captain of a small frigate.
Therefore, Feng Di does not blame Jiang Xingchen at all. Rather, he is quite grateful to Jiang Xingchen for giving him a chance to directly become the captain of the frigate.
This can be said to be of great benefit to Feng Di's future.
However, what he didn't expect was that Jiang Xingchen, who had just been a mate on the Wuluo for half a year, would be quickly promoted to captain, and he had just turned 20 years old.
In fact, he was not the only surprised by this. The other two captains also had their mouths wide open at this moment, and their jaws almost hit the ground.
One thing they all know very well is that as long as this young man named Jiang Xingchen doesn't take the wrong path in the future, his achievements will definitely far exceed those of the three of them.
You know, the previous battle on the Wuluo was regarded as a classic case for all middle and high-level commanders to learn from.
And in that case, the name of the strategy was clearly stated...
Jiang Xingchen!
Therefore, even though the three of them had higher military ranks, they were very polite to Jiang Xingchen and would not do anything rude at all.
"Three of you, shall we start?"
"Okay, Captain Jiang, you can take charge. After all, you know the situation best!"
"Okay, then I'm welcome!"
Jiang Xingchen wasn't being pretentious. After all, time was precious and he didn't have time to play that kind of push-back game.
After nodding, he turned on the three-dimensional projection equipment in the war room, which contained a real-time model of the Blue Valley Star based on the previously deployed satellites.
"Please see, everyone, the mother worm is located here, and the war worms are currently distributed within a 5,000-kilometer radius centered on the mother worm, hunting Cole beasts everywhere."
"My plan is to directly mobilize all twelve mecha squads and the same twelve space marines, and then divide them into four groups abcd, and then..."
"Surround the area for reinforcements!"
Hearing this, the three of them were stunned.
They know the tactic of encircling a point to support them, but the problem is...
Isn't that the tactic used in the Blue Star era?
Since entering the interstellar era, this tactic has never been used again. Even in the military academy, the instructor said that this is a tactic that cannot keep up with the times.
But now, Jiang Xingchen said that he would use this tactic?
However, even though the three of them were very confused, no one directly refuted Jiang Xingchen. They had all seen the previous battle on the Wuluo, and they knew equally well that this was not a master who played his cards according to common sense.
Therefore, rushing to refute may end up slapping yourself in the face, that's okay.
"Captain Jiang, can you tell me in detail how to encircle the area and call for reinforcements?"
After pondering for a moment, Feng Di asked.
"Well, as you all know, the reason why these bugs are called star bugs is because they have the ability to escape from the planet and survive in space."
"And our mission is not to let any one go, and to capture the female insect alive!"
"So, in order to fully achieve this tactical goal, we must first ensure that those bugs will not escape. After all, we only have four warships in orbit. It is not realistic to completely block the Blue Valley Planet and prevent any bugs from escaping."
"Then, how to ensure that these bugs will not escape is the core premise of formulating this strategy."
Several of the people here are captains, and no one who can become a captain is an idiot.
They naturally understood what Jiang Xingchen meant.
"Captain Jiang means...to control the female insect immediately?"
After thinking about Jiang Xingchen's words, Feng Di asked again.
"Yes, but this is only part of the reason why I use this tactic. More importantly... the combat effectiveness of our mecha troops!"
"The combat effectiveness of the mecha troops?"
"Yes, the three captains have not tested the new pilots assigned to the ship?"
"Well...the battleship has just been in service for a day, and my main focus is on the training of the bridge personnel..."
Hearing this, Feng Di scratched his head in embarrassment.
The other two people also had unnatural looks in their eyes.
Okay, Li Yan understands. These three guys have never understood the level of the mecha troops on their ships.
"Captain Jiang, is there something wrong with these pilots?"
"Graduate one year early, and many people even graduate two years early. What do you think?"
"But didn't the military department say that after studying in the training cabin, they are no worse than those pilots who graduated normally?"
"Captain Feng, graduation from the academy only tests theoretical knowledge and basic operations. These are two completely different concepts from actual combat. I tested the pilots on the Qingluan a month ago. They are facing the battle
When I was a worm, even one-on-one was very difficult!”
What...
Facing war bugs, is it difficult to deal with one on one?
Feng Di was stunned instantly.
In his memory, even the pilots on the Hope patrol ship, even the most unskilled ones, would have absolutely no problem killing three or five war bugs at the same time.
If this one-on-one relationship is too difficult, then it will be a Mao battlefield!
"And I have conducted devilish training on these pilots in the past month, and now they are close to the lowest level of ordinary pilots in active service."
"So, you can imagine that if you take these super rookies to hunt war bugs, they will probably not only be useless, but even the 101st mecha squadron of the Wuluo will have to be busy protecting them!"
"A campaign of annihilation cannot be achieved by relying on them!"
After finishing speaking, Jiang Xingchen himself shook his head.
Let these super rookies fight a sports annihilation battle with war bugs, don't be ridiculous.
What's more, this is a war insect with the mother insect bonus, and its speed and reaction are greatly improved.
"I understand a little bit what Captain Jiang means. He said he wanted to surround the point to provide reinforcements. In fact, he wanted to make up for the shortcomings of our pilots' poor combat capabilities?"
"That's right, although it won't work to let them fight the war bugs, you can use them as fixed turrets. It's like hitting a moving target. There are no other technical issues required, just aiming and shooting!"
Hearing this, Feng Di and the other three also nodded.
The core idea is to surround the mother worm first, so that other war worms can only come back to rescue, to avoid being scattered by them and escaping from the planet.
At the same time, with the mother insect as the center, a defensive circle is established around it to block the returning fighting insects from all directions.
In this way, the new recruits only have to stand there and shoot. Just like Jiang Xingchen said, it is regarded as practicing shooting a moving target.
Even if there are war bugs that break through the fire net, they can be intercepted by the mecha troops of the Wuluo. The recruits don't have to worry about anything, don't even move, just treat themselves as fixed turrets and just keep firing.
If you can't even do this well, then just retire...
"Since everyone is fine, let's go back to the ship to make arrangements!"
"In ten minutes, the battle will officially begin!"
"The ground operations will be directed by me personally!"
