Chapter 107: The Commander's Lesson

The week-long campaign ended with the last two pirate groups choosing to surrender. No one has counted how many casualties there have been this time, and although this kind of thing cannot be said to be common, it is not unprecedented. This kind of thing has happened a lot in the port of the dead, and some people choose to go through the process and fight back within the normal rule system to bring down the opposite alliance, but there are also many people like Yang Yi who directly lead people to kill them.

Of course, the Port of the Dead has its own rules, and there are patrols by the management committee on weekdays, but it is a gathering place for outlaws after all. If the fist is hard enough, the rules can always be broken.

As the operation ended, he also sent an email to the management committee to say that his business was done, and then said some nonsense that he was sorry for but had to do, which was also an explanation to the other side. However, Black Rose seems to be very angry, and asks him to go away with the pirates who have surrendered. It was useless for him to keep it anyway, and he just threw it to Black Rose to dispose of, and looking at her like that, it was unlikely that these pirates would be good.

The matter of the Black Rose is temporarily resolved, and the position of the Black Rose Pirate Group can be regarded as completely consolidated through this operation, Yang Yi feels that no one will be stupid enough to provoke them anymore, and those large pirate groups can get along with him okay, and they will not be idle and have nothing to trouble themselves, and they can continue to stay in this place with peace of mind.

Just as Yang Yi continued to wait for the Mobius Foundation to ship the Draken laser rig, Hydra came with good news: her ship's outfit had been built.

Previously, Hydra was sent by Yang Yi to the Modified Dock of the Harbor of the Dead for initial hull transformation, so he did not participate in the previous actions and stayed in the Harbor of the Dead to concentrate on building the ship's outfit. Now her ship's outfit has been built.

However, the quadruple missile launcher was a bit of a surprise to him: it was a presence similar to mechanical wings. It's more cumbersome to describe, it is usually installed behind the Hydra, and when fighting, it can be divided into two twin missile launchers and moved to both sides of the Hydra as needed.

This combat ship is naturally not strong, it can only be said that it gives the Hydra a certain degree of anti-armor and the ability to deal with low-flying units. Again, at most, it is used as a breakthrough unit, and in battle, it still relies on Hydra's own inherent spiritual power and the physical fitness brought by the hull to fight, and this ship's equipment is at most a support.

The current Hydra is fully manned, and when the hull transformation is completed, the Hydra will be the first fully formed ship in the fleet. Yang Yi also had to start thinking about whether to follow A1 and Hydra after Renault's contract to learn the 27-month vocational training mentioned by Hydra......

"That's regular training for Imperial Navy officers, Commander." A1 shook his head and rejected his idea after learning of his idea, "The combat mission you have to undertake is different from theirs. You are largely out of the front line combat, and even in conventional naval warfare, we ourselves have the ability to coordinate the vast majority of decisions. Your main task is to be responsible for the administrative side of things, or to make decisions at a strategic level, which is not something that regular officer training can provide. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Doesn't regular officer training teach these? ”

"You have to understand that this twenty-seven months of regular training of naval officers is in charge of a single warship. In other words, every officer trained is the captain of a warship, and if they are not promoted, they will only command one ship, which is not in line with your current position. As he spoke, A1 directly cut the screen of the Star Atlas console to a file, and then said, "This is a more suitable training program for you at the moment, mainly for the elite of the Imperial Navy, ranging from sixteen months to four years. ”

"Specific courses include War and International Norms, Strategy and Policy, Ethics of War, Decision-making and Military Planning, Command and Leadership Arts, Military and Media, Space Environment, Space Strategy, Interstellar Law, Interstellar Diplomacy, Space Battlefield, Space Force Projection, Naval Equipment Technology, Fleet Logistics Support, Strategic Management, Defense Management, Mission Management, Military Expenditure Management, Naval Strategy Implementation Procedures, Defense Department Procurement, Naval Equipment Management, Human Resource Management, Future Naval Power ......"

There were dense classifications of courses on the papers, and even the credits and GPAs that he had been a headache for......

"Stop, you have to learn all this?"

"Yes." A1 nodded, "Every fleet commander of the Empire has been trained like this. The original commanders of the Imperial fleet were mostly naval officers from the Old Union, who remained wary of the FΓΌhrer and were not loyal to the people of the Empire. As a result, the Empire launched a sixteen-month surprise training program, rapidly training a number of naval officers to replace the disloyal old Union officers. It was only after that that that the Reich had time to put together the officer training program that led to what you see today. ”

Yang Yi felt his temples beating constantly, and suddenly he wanted to retreat. In the last world, he barely crossed the 2.0 line, and he thought that the world didn't need to face these, but now A1 gave him another slap in the face.

But think about it, the empire currently has two main fleets, the empire's first fleet and the empire's second fleet. Each fleet has 50 battlecruisers, and the fleet commander naturally cannot be sloppy.

But just listening to the complicated names, his head began to hurt, and when did he have to learn this?

"Then you can make a list for me first, and filter out the best one for my current situation...... I'm going to start learning from you when my contract with Renault ends. Eventually, he was stubborn enough to convince himself to let A1 plan a syllabus. Even if it's not for your own fleet, you have to study these lessons for your own life.

"Yes, Commander. I'm glad you can face up to your flaws. A1 seemed relieved and nodded with some relief, "Expect your course to last for about two years." You'll need to make up more than a normal fleet commander, and your course will start with the most basic parts......"

"Huh? Isn't it true that I don't need to take those basic courses? ”

"No, I meant that you don't need to do those basic trainings, because they cover a lot of content that you don't need, but there are some pre-requisites that you need to learn, so I've integrated them into your list of courses. Tomorrow I am expected to put together a specific syllabus for you. ”

"Ah...... I suddenly felt the urge to drop out......"
