Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 516: Get up and let me do my duty!

Under the speed boost of Hood's flagship skill "Royal Parade", the small fleet of four quickly moved forward at a speed of more than [-] knots, thinking about the sea area where the mirage might appear.

The sky in the waters of Wutou Island has been exceptionally clear these days. Although it cannot be said to be cloudless, the bright sun still covers the sea tirelessly.The sunlight is reflected and scattered by the sea surface, and the electromagnetic waves carrying energy fall on the bodies of the ship girls, bringing unnecessary heat.Fortunately, as late autumn gradually draws to a close, the temperature in the entire Jialan Territory has been dropping every day. In recent weeks, it has almost dropped below [-] degrees. The continuous sunny days in the past few days have allowed the temperature to rise. There was a noticeable rise.

Although even if it is really hot, the ship girls will not be afraid that these extra ultraviolet rays will damage their smooth skin, but after all, high temperature is really an uncomfortable thing. Now the temperature is suitable, and Hood and the others are in a much better mood. .

Eating the famous sandwiches made of fried steak and fried chicken cutlets wrapped with lettuce, salad and cheese slices and sandwiched with cheese bread, the girls of the Royal Navy began to talk about a series of details of this battle.

However, as the discussion gradually deepened, their topic returned to Malan Island.To be precise, they are Lambin Island and Laiya Island located northeast of Malang Island.These two islands will undoubtedly be the core of Jialan's expansion strategy in the future. Although they are isolated overseas and far away from the core area of ​​​​Jialan, Huangjiang still dispatched an entire US-series battleship force.Even the Royal Navy in its heyday was quite afraid of the American low-speed battleship force headed by Seaver, otherwise there would not have been any naval holidays at that time.

This powerful battle force is stationed on the twin islands of Lanbin and Laiya. It can be seen that the strategic core of Huangjiang's future will definitely still be on Violet Island.Therefore, Hood and others really have no jealous thoughts about this battle, because they know that they will not lack such things as merit in the future.

"Getting closer." The vanguard checked the radar again and reported to Hood, who was the flagship.

"Check the ship's equipment and prepare for battle." Hood gave the order to prepare for battle simply and neatly.

On the calm sea, the gentle sea breeze blew gently, creating sparkling waves on the sea.

Accompanied by the sound of fish jumping on the sea surface, the ship girls began their intense preparations for battle.

Check the main gun, check the ammunition, check the damage control...

Everything went according to pretty standard combat readiness inspection procedures.

After a while, Hood and others completed the relevant work in less than 10 minutes.Of course, this kind of inspection is not as detailed as the inspection back to the factory, down to the bolts. The ship girls only need to ensure that their combat parts will not make very big mistakes during the battle. Others are similar to the main gun jamming. For the Royal Accidents are relatively rare for navy equipment, and they can be handled with skill.Furthermore, the battlefield is a complex environment that changes rapidly. Sometimes a sudden encounter may not be able to be squeezed out within 10 minutes, so although this step is necessary, it is still being simplified.

After the inspection, Hood led the fleet towards the direction predicted by the mirage.

really.

Soon after, Hood discovered traces of the mirage through his observation station.

"Two 'squids', two 'cods' and three 'groupers'." Hood calmly reported the composition of the mirage troop.

"Isn't there a mirage captain?" Reputation said with some surprise.

"It seems that the Edelweiss Island side has not realized the seriousness of the problem." Hood smiled coldly and said to the vanguard, "Send a message to the Tirpitz fleet saying that the big fish has not been caught yet, so don't rush to catch it. The bait was eaten.”

"Understood!" Qian Wei nodded quickly, and then began to contact Tirpitz.

"Then what shall we do now?" the lion asked.

Hu De and Sheng Sheng looked at each other, and then said hehe: "No matter how small it is, it is still meat. How can you not eat it when it reaches your mouth? Sign up and prepare to fight!"

"Everyone can obviously hear it..." the lion complained.

"The sense of ceremony! Do you understand? This is called the sense of ceremony!" Hood's cheeks were slightly red and he shouted, "This is what makes the Royal Navy unique!" "It's done, Hood." Reputation quickly raised the flag. , meaning to prepare for battle.

"Don't be so serious! Prestige." This made Hood blush even more.

Still fifteen kilometers away from the Mirage troops, Hood's fleet took the lead in firing.

Facing ordinary mirages with no special abilities and ordinary attributes, even the highest level "squid" is no match for the main fleet of the Royal Navy.

Moreover, Hood and others still took the lead.

One salvo directly sank two "groupers".

The mirages on the opposite side reacted quickly. They quickly deployed all their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy.But before they could find the source of the attack, the Royal Navy fired another salvo.

The sound of the main guns firing simultaneously was deafening, with a strong sense of impact.This is Hood's favorite voice. When she first became a candidate, she liked to watch the seniors of the Royal Navy practice shelling on the drill ground of the Royal Naval Academy.

Times have changed, but Hood's preferences have never changed.

The results of this round of salvos were not as good as those of the first round. Only one of the "Cods" was sunk and one of the "Squids" was seriously injured. However, the "Squid" carrying the flagship flag was not damaged.

In these short two rounds of salvos, the vanguard achieved two results. First, he sank a "grouper" with one shot, and then destroyed a "cod" with a second salvo. ".Although the avant-garde's firepower has been criticized in the port area, the precise shooting effect of the Royal Navy's most advanced fire control radar equipped with it was fully demonstrated in this short combat time.

Of course, the shortcomings of firepower are also fully demonstrated. If the second shot was replaced by Rodney or the lion, the "squid" would have died suddenly.

Then, Renren raised his hand and fired a shot, directly collecting the heads of the "squids" who had lost their ability to fight and move due to the big defeat.

The vanguard took a deep breath and aimed the gun at a "cod" among the mirage troops.

The mirages finally discovered Hood's fleet, and sparse shells fell on the waters where Hood's fleet was located.Shengfu glanced at Hood with some concern, and he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she hadn't been hit.

"What are you looking at!!" Hood had already noticed the prestige in his eyes, his face turned red, and he shouted dissatisfied, "I am the flagship of the Royal Navy, how could I die so easily! And the other party is just a mere It’s just an ordinary mirage!”

"Welsh thought the same way when he followed you to fight with Bismarck." Reputation muttered softly.

Hood raised his eyebrows, but found that he had no excuse to refute at all, so he jumped up in anger.

She stood up, pointed at the few mirages on the other side, and shouted loudly: "Listen to me on the other side! Don't fall so fast!! Let me do my duty for the Royal Navy!!!!"

"You seem to have irritated Miss Hood." Qianwei moved closer to Shengsheng.

"Ahem." Shengsheng looked at Hood who was shooting like crazy and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I couldn't hold it back for a moment. This is indeed an oversight as a maid."

　Happy fifth anniversary!
