Chapter 451

Unlike Lorraine, Katrina, who was nurtured by orthodox chivalry, is more rigorous in self-control.

If there is no accident, when she commands the fleet, she will always stay firmly in the three-story command post in the stern building specially set up for the lieutenant, control the three mast flag order overhead, and easily won't interfere with the work of the captain's command system on the same ship.

Like now.

A few years ago, the smuggling operation basically established the command sequence of Lorraine's team, although strictly speaking, it was only the captain sequence of ship No. 1.

However, with the increasing scale of the direct fleet, the only supervision mode generally applicable to Drake's fleet gradually showed one way or another slowness in this fleet based on high-speed flexibility, forcing Lorraine to consider the upgrading of the command system.

Lorraine's response is also very simple, that is, to change based on the captain sequence of the road label, and at the same time, follow the navy to form a deputy commander regiment to strengthen the deputy commander's control over the fleet.

The upgraded direct Fleet Command System has officially evolved into a dynamic system, which is divided into three positions: single ship, (less than six ships) small fleet and (more than seven ships) large fleet.

During single ship operation, Captain Lorraine, first mate Katrina, bell helmsman and rear deck commander, Karen boatman and front deck commander.

During the operation of the small fleet, Lorraine was the commander and Katrina was the flagship captain. Bell was added to the second commander sequence on the basis of his original position. Karen was adjusted to the first mate, gave up the position of boatman and took full charge of the front deck command.

When it comes to the operation of the big fleet, Lorraine is the commander and flagship captain, and Katrina leaves the ship as the deputy commander. Bell is still the second commander sequence, which is consistent with the small fleet mode. Karen adds the second flagship captain sequence outside the small fleet mode.

In other words, once Lorraine is in a state that is not suitable for command, Katrina, deputy governor, will command the fleet, and Karen, the flagship captain, will implement the naval model of two teams, the flagship and the fleet.

Bell's second lieutenant was special.

Because Lorraine and bell are fleet commanders with unique and outstanding style, in order to ensure that the fleet will not be confused due to the adjustment of the command system, bell will perform the supervision work only before sailing and Lorraine is in a state that is not suitable for command, not in wartime.

This command system has been implemented for two years. With the systematic rotation of seafarers on Lorraine's flagship, three independent and dependent command systems have been formed, namely, the relatively stable commander's command group, the deputy commander's command group and the flagship seafarer's group.

Among them, except that bell did not really command a large-scale fleet naval battle until he attacked dricky, the coordination and cooperation between Katrina and Karen and the three command systems have developed very mature.

As deputy governor, from the time Lorraine adjusted the alert level to level 3, Katrina was transferred from valkiri to her deputy governor ship alvette.

The traveling position of the alvette is in the middle and rear section of the W-shaped right concave position, which can clearly control the operation of the rear array of the fleet and make minor and timely adjustments.

In the sailing age, this is the only way to ensure that the battle ready formation will not be excessively distorted during the journey, so that it will disintegrate before the battle.

Katrina stood in her command post, her fiery red hair floating in the wind.

"Inform the skua that she has deviated and ask the pilot to readjust her direction."

"Yes!"

"The speed of the warship bird is too fast. She is dispersing the whole left column and asking the captain to pay attention to the distance between the ships."

"Yes!"

"Deputy commander, the reply of the skua has been received. The right rudder has been adjusted three degrees. The pilot is checking the direction."

Katrina nodded: "let alvette help them. Seafarers at the seabird level generally have a short graduation time. Although they have suppressed pirates in the Virgin Islands, this long-distance combat journey is the first time."

"I'll inform captain Freon at once!"

The communication staff beat her chest and legs and strode back. Katrina confirmed the position of each ship again. Then she relaxed and sighed wearily.

As she said, the biggest defect of sailors in the direct fleet is lack of experience.

Lorraine regarded the direct fleet as a training ground. Except for the level 5 God level, the sailors on brig and brigantin changed almost every year.

They are often the first stop for the graduates of the chamber of commerce school to find jobs. The graduates define their positions on these ships, study deeply and accumulate experience. When they are really mature, they will sign long-term contracts. Except for a few who are supplemented to the flagship and God service level, most of them will be distributed to each branch and entrusted with important tasks.

The branches naturally like this kind of knowledgeable, experienced, young, energetic, and fresh blood with pertinent evaluation. Drake chamber of Commerce, which is expanding rapidly, does not have surplus talents, but the direct fleet has a headache. Especially Katrina, who maintains the operation of the fleet, can only continue to be a nanny and endure the strength of the fleet from valley to peak, Then the cyclic fluctuation from peak to valley.

"This batch is half a year away, captains are a year and a half..." Katrina muttered, looked up and suddenly saw Lev fishing idly on the side of the ship.

In this battle, Lorraine thought that there were too many uncontrollable factors in the battlefield and that valkiri lacked the opportunity to meet the side. As the chief charge of the fleet, Lev could only play the function of half a boatswain on the flagship at most, so he sent him to the deputy commander ship yarvet.

But the yalvit also has its own seafarer rotation. Leff can't even participate in the work of the boatswain and the third mate here. He can only take his two deputies to become idle people on the deck. Perhaps this is what Lorraine neglected.

It's painful to do nothing at sea. Katrina thought about it, turned over the railing and jumped down.

"How's the harvest?" she kicked the bucket next to LEV and found it empty. "If you need it, maybe I can ask freon to open the prohibition."

Leff glanced at her obliquely. "In your opinion, the Viking warriors can't stand loneliness?"

"I don't deny it. After all, in my impression, you and your Stormtrooper team have always been... Very lively."

"It's really a pity that we can't bring those boys with us. It's really a pity." Lev deflated his mouth. "I'm considering suggesting to the captain to set up a professional assault team. Pierce's secret service team has built a professional assault team composed of miskitors. It usually works part-time on board and works well."

"You mean to let the sailors work as stormtroopers and part-time shipping?"

"Yes, twenty to thirty part-time shipping operators can have more time to train. They can also be the deputy of the charge captain of each ship during large-scale landing, so as to make the land war of the fleet more coordinated."

Katrina's eyes lit up. "Did you think of it?"

"In fact, it was the drogo boy who came up with it. Barto and hill provided a lot of suggestions on the use of the Stormtrooper team. I'm too lazy to do such a mental thing."

This is Leff

Katrina gasped as if relieved: "the plan is excellent. I think the captain will be interested. You can try to suggest."

She looked up at the horizon in the distance: "we will leave the baster sea in half an hour. If Blackbeard doesn't appear, it will be very unlikely to appear in Russell."

"If we break through Russell, we will be out of combat readiness. That's a good time to make suggestions. I think..."

Katrina was saying, and a tragic cry suddenly sounded on the lookout platform: "find the enemy!"

"More than 16 kilometers ahead, ships around the island, number 4... Number 7... Number 11... Blackbeard regiment flag! Enemy attack!"
