Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 486 Strange sight
The strait between Lanbin Island and Laiya Island is very narrow, making the sea water flowing here have the turbulence of a river flowing through a mountain stream.

Half an hour later, the three Colorado sisters landed on Laiya Island.

As they expected, there were no accidents. Except for West Virginia being nudged by a jubilant dolphin, nothing happened.

This kind of peace greatly disappointed Maryland. She followed her sister feebly. She originally expected to fire a few cannonballs on the island to declare the existence of the enemy. Now it seems that there are indeed no enemies on Leia Island.

This is a very strange phenomenon for mirages.Based on what Colorado learned from Lexington, the Mirage is a very hierarchical group. As long as the level is higher, it has absolute command over the lower level, and the Mirage under the high-level Mirage, There is almost no military power. Apart from raiding human borders, no other arrangements can be made. Events such as launching wars, organizing some important plundering operations, etc. are at least organized by Captain Mirage. This is also the case recently. In the past few years, humans have hardly discovered Captain Mirage. After all, such incidents have been very rare in the past ten years. Most of the frequent interactions between humans and mirages are ordinary mirages plundering resources on the border.

As the most important military strongholds in the Violet Sea, Lanbin Island and Laiya Island are naturally the top priority in Mirage's strategy. Once they lose these two islands, Mirage will lose the best bridgehead to attack Gloria. In the future, any attack will need to start from the occupied area on the east coast of the Violet Sea, and cross a long sea area to attack Jialan.

Even Colorado, a ship girl, felt that it was impossible to evacuate here without fighting humans at all. Once such a thing was decided without authorization, it would definitely be subject to a military court, not to mention the mirage. It is impossible for a shadow subordinate to disobey a mirage superior. That is to say, before a clear evacuation order comes, ordinary mirages will always execute the last order. Even if the entire army is annihilated, there will be no wavering, unless the mirage captain's The next order was for them to evacuate.

"There are no traces of battle." West Virginia sniffed and said to Colorado aside, "There are no new traces in the surrounding jungles."

"Could it be that the rain in the past few days has washed away the traces of mirage activity?" Maryland asked.

"The traces of mirage activity cannot be so fragile, and they have no intention of hiding their traces." West Virginia said, "Even if it is washed away by rain, there will always be some traces, such as footprints and so on. There will be, but here, there are none at all, which means that even if there are mirages, they were active on this island at least a month ago."

Colorado looked around. The three sisters found a relatively easy path and headed deep into the forest.

Judging from the information provided by the submarines, the side of Laiya Island close to Lanbin Island is a dense jungle, but on the southeast coast, the terrain of Laiya Island becomes much gentler, and there is a large plain.

There were no signs of mirage activity on the plain, which the submarines had confirmed in advance, but there was a large area of ​​ruins there, which U47 guessed were houses built by humans on Leia Island during the Edelweiss Collar period.

Colorado is going to make sure this time.

Judging from their current dealings with mirages, ordinary mirages rarely have the habit of building their own buildings. If there is a mother body on the island, they will parasitize on the mother body; Wandering on the island or in the sea, if there are caves or human buildings, the highest-level mirages in the team will move in, and then enter one by one. This can be seen from the original Mirage of Malan Island.

"It seems that the mirage is evacuating on its own initiative." After searching for a while, the three battleships finally confirmed that there was no mirage in the forest, and there were no traces of battle.

West Virginia exclaimed: "It's incredible. No matter how you look at it, this place should be a battleground for military strategists."

"That's right." Maryland said, "If this island is in the deep sea, there might be a new Iron Bottom Bay nearby. They will never give up on these two islands."

"There are no traces of battle." West Virginia recalled, "Then what happened to the bomb crater on Lanbin Island." "Go to the plains and have a look." Colorado said, "Maybe there will be answers to us."

Maryland continued what Silver said: "There are two forces near Lanbin Island, one is us and the other is Luwei Flower Leader. However, it is absolutely impossible for Luwei Flower Leader to attack here because they have entered this area. The sea must definitely cross Edelweiss Island, which is unrealistic, and they have no need for this..."

"You mean..." West Virginia said with some disbelief, "There is something wrong inside the Mirage on the West Wind Drift Front? But is this possible? The level of the Mirage is so strict, will there really be civil strife?"

Colorado feels that this conjecture is very possible: "You have to know one thing first. The phenomenon of level suppression only occurs in very few ordinary mirages. There is no such rigid suppression among mirage captains. , you have also seen that the commander has roped in a mirage captain before. If it is an ordinary mirage, it is absolutely impossible for them to surrender without the mirage captain's order."

"Huh? Since there is such level of suppression, can't the 'leaf fish' order ordinary mirages to surrender to us?" West Virginia said.

Colorado chuckled: "Don't think too simplistically. Although there is no strict suppression between mirage captains, their right to speak is different. Otherwise, if each has their own agenda, ordinary mirages will be in chaos. 'Yeyu' Her qualifications are not high, and she is not even qualified to station on an island alone. Her orders can easily be counteracted by other mirage captains. Moreover, ordinary mirage troops now also have a phenomenon of belonging, and generally they will only obey the mirage captain of the island they belong to. orders unless she delegates authority.”

"If the crater was not a mistake, then it could only have been made by the mirage itself." Maryland said, "That is to say, the mirage captain ordered the ordinary mirage on Lanbin Island to attack the ordinary mirage subordinate to another mirage captain. Mirage?"

"What a mess." West Virginia felt that her brain was not enough.

While they were talking, the three sisters had already arrived on the plain.

All three were shocked.

Unlike what submarines observed through periscopes, the landscape of Leia Island seen by Colorado was more comprehensive... and more shocking.

On the plains, ruins of human structures can be seen everywhere, and between these ruins are dotted with craters of varying depths, some of which have calibers similar to those in Colorado, at least at the level of "squid".

There have been fights here.

And it's very intense.

But the smoke has cleared.

In other words, the battle happened a long time ago.
