Chapter018 The training and supply of the ship's mother
Before you know it, the fleet has been at sea for a week.
Due to the overall slow speed of the fleet, it was only 1,700 nautical miles in seven days, which was still less than half the distance from the somewhat remote port area of Habara Mio, and it was expected that the fleet would sail for about five or six more days.
However, the fleet finally left the uninhabited southern hemisphere, crossed the equator, and returned to the northern hemisphere, which has more routes in the world.
Their current location is several major safe sea areas connecting the main continent and the northern hemisphere subcontinent, and this is also an area where ships from the two continents are relatively densely frequent.
Even if the Sirens in this world are not a high threat, ordinary unarmed civilian ships will still choose to operate along the routes in the safe sea.
Civilian ships are usually sailed in a concentrated manner, and then escorted by several warships from the fleet directly under the Navy Administration.
Of course, there were times when the General Administration of the Navy could not mobilize its forces, so the commanders of the various port areas could occasionally receive civilian escort tasks with a certain amount of remuneration.
However, these tasks are generally simple, and the rewards fluctuate greatly, and the benefits are not as obvious as those of directly carrying out tasks such as ocean siren clearance.
In general, the commander of the port area will not let his elite main force participate in this kind of task, but will let the warships and ships that have just been built under his command carry them out, which can be regarded as improving the training of the newborn ship girls.
That's right, practice.
This is a topic about the ship's mother when Mio Hahara was chatting with Wang Yu over the radio one day.
Wang Yu is actually quite grateful to this warm-hearted commander girl.
In the process of talking, she popularized a lot of knowledge about the ship's mother for Wang Yu, so that Wang Yu had a deeper understanding of the special existence of the ship's mother.
Among them, the degree of training mentioned is a very important factor to measure the combat effectiveness level of the ship's mother.
The degree of training can be understood as the control efficiency of the ship's mother.
A battleship has complex systems.
the power system of the warship's navigation; armament systems related to warship operations; A sighting system related to the enemy's pursuit of the enemy and a communication system related to the communication of the battleship.
A newborn warship consciousness, that is, the ship's mother, is actually impossible to be familiar with all the systems on the battleship at the first time - for the ship's mother, it is their instinct to control the hull and use weapons, but instinct is only a violent application of their own talents, far from being a "flexible use".
Therefore, improving the training of the ship mother is actually to let the ship mother deepen their understanding of their "instincts", so that they can use their own abilities efficiently.
For example, it is difficult for newborn ship girls to take care of firing and maneuvering at the same time, when they fire, they can't efficiently control the maneuverability of the battleship, and when they concentrate on maneuvering, they can't give full play to the full firepower of the battleship.
Not only that, but it is also difficult for the ship girls with a relatively low degree of training to achieve accurate strikes, they always can't aim at the enemy, and basically need to rely on calibration to adjust the attack position; At the same time, their performance is also average, and there are often some cases where the rudder is overblown, and the core of the battleship is blown by the siren at the wrong angle.
And the way to improve the training of the ship girl is also simple,In addition to letting the high-training ship mother pass on experience,That is, let the low-training ship mother continue to experience the feeling of using their own abilities in the actual sailing battle.,Over time,The ship's ability to control the warship will rise.。
Therefore, in addition to some civilian ship escort tasks, the commanders of each port area are also willing to take on some tasks with low-intensity operations, and then some high-trained ships will take a team of low-training ships to carry them out, and everyone will improve together.
That's pretty much it.
Wang Yu learned that it didn't take long for Mio Hahara to be a commander in the real sense of the word—after all, this girl didn't look very old, and there weren't many highly trained shipwives in her fleet.
Fortunately, the training level of the capital ships on her side is relatively high, so it is enough for her to carry out some more difficult combat missions, and exchange the necessary resources for the development of her own port area, so as to accelerate the growth of other low-training ships.
After Wang Yu listened to the things about Liandu, he couldn't help but think a little about it.
What kind of training will the ship girl produced in Annapolis be in her own country?
…………
In the process of the fleet going north, Wang Yu has seen many civilian ships.
Those civilian ships sailed together on the routes in the safe sea, so every time the fleet encountered civilian ships, it was a large fleet of a dozen or so ships of all kinds, and it seemed that the routes were busy and lively.
Looking at the civilian ships that avoided the warships, Wang Yu couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
He had never seen this kind of scene before.
In the last world, he was born after the Siren Crisis, and he had never seen the hectic sea transport without the Siren threat, only through the documentaries of mankind that documented the golden age.
So at this time, seeing those batches of civilian ships sailing on the sea, Wang Yu seemed to see the scene in the documentary appear in reality.
In the last time and space, he and many naval officers fought for it, didn't it be that one day such a scene could appear on the sea again?
Now I see this scene become a reality, but unfortunately it is indeed in another wonderful world.
But he didn't have much time to sigh at this time.
Because as the fleet passed through this route, away from the Ming ships, the Annapolis issued a fuel warning.
No way, if it is Annapolis in full heyday, it is enough for Wang Yu to run back and forth from the place where he came to this world before to the port area of Mio Habara.
However, the amount of fuel carried by the battleship when it came to this world was a little insufficient, plus it consumed a lot of it in the previous rush battle, and later followed Mio Hahara's fleet for a long journey, so at this time the reserves were basically exhausted.
The oil depot at the bottom of the ship was nearly dry, leaving only a thin layer of oil.
And even if the diesel engine that is more fuel-efficient during cruising is used to sail at the optimal speed, it is only enough for the warship to advance an additional few dozen nautical miles.
Wang Yu informed Mio Hahara of this as soon as possible.
As she said before, she would refuel herself.
And Mio Habara's side is indeed trustworthy, and she informed her Minato Ward of the need for supplies a few days ago.
At present, the remaining warships with relatively low training in her harbor area have escorted oil and water supply ships and are waiting not far ahead.
Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Mio Habara was a little surprised to learn that her battleship was burning diesel, and then emptied the diesel storage tanks in her port area, totaling about 1,000 tons of diesel to supply Annapolis.
There is no way, the warships on her side are basically heavy oil boilers, so the heavy oil reserves in her port area are very amazing, there are tens of thousands of tons, but diesel, which usually consumes less fuel in her fleet, although she has reserves, but there are not many of them.
However, many civilian ships in this world use diesel, and there are also many commanders who have some diesel ships in the port area, so diesel can also be selected in the support materials of the Navy Administration.
So Mio Habara asked Wang Yu to relax, he didn't have to worry too much about the source of oil,
Wang Yu felt very grateful.
Even if she saved her once before, she can do so much for herself, which can be regarded as a grace of dripping water.
The fleet moved forward for a while, and Wang Yu finally saw the supply fleet from the Habara Mio port area.
The core of the fleet is naturally a huge oil and water supply ship.
The side of the supply ship is customarily painted with her name.
"Feng Zao" oil and water supply ship.
