Chapter 347: Ajax's Growth
On the other side, Bismarck, as the flagship, looked at the other party at this time, and the tension in her heart did not decrease, but more confused.
She couldn't help but think that the deep sea that she had let go of before would become a hidden danger?
Now, though, is not the time to think about that.
Bismarck's face was grim, and the reason why she didn't let everyone in the team hide was because both sides were already close at hand, and they didn't fire at the first time, but chose to restrain each other, which had largely ruled out the possibility of the deep sea.
And the nervousness, why?
Bismarck understood where this unwarranted tension came from, as if he was about to meet someone very important.
But she doesn't describe the feeling very well.
Therefore, she chose to wait and respond to all changes.
Since the other party came out of that dangerous sea area that they already thought was unnavigable, it proved that the other party knew the sea environment near the island.
And when she thinks of the charts that Fletcher gave herself, she easily thinks of Ajax, the light cruiser lady who gave her cheerful first impression.
However, she was afraid that the person she saw was not her, but someone else, in that case, would she and the others be taken to the island for repairs?
Quincy is a big break, and if you don't enter the canal as soon as possible, you may be in danger.
This was also Bismarck's concern, and it was her motivation for choosing this adventure.
After all, she knew that Quincy belonged to Li Ran, the admiral, just like herself, and was a sister in the port area.
So Bismarck's decision was more or less partial, but it is understandable, every ship's wife cannot be selfless after all, and they also have some ideas of their own.
The other shipwives are naturally like this, San Juan and Santiago will choose to follow Bismarck's orders, and it is not Bismarck's flagship status, but Edinburgh's mid-break is also what they are worried about.
And Fletcher and Z17 are out of trust in Bismarck.
So, all the things allowed Bismarck's orders to be carried out.
Ship girls are not puppets, they can think, they will naturally judge the pros and cons, judge the situation, and even at some point, they will easily entrust their trust.
This is also why some ship girls, when the admiral makes certain moves, will decide to follow without hesitation.
The logic of their thinking is very peculiar, but in the final analysis, what they do is in line with their hearts.
This has been the case for a lifetime.
That's why there is a saying that the ship's mother will never betray the admiral first.
Bismarck felt the coldness of the sea breeze, and she could clearly feel that she was nervous, and this feeling was particularly uncomfortable.
She watched the other party stop at a distance of about a few hundred meters from her, then made a few flag gestures, was stunned, and hurriedly asked Fletcher:
"What is she talking about?"
Don't get me wrong, it's not that Bismarck doesn't understand the flag language, it's because there is a certain difference in the system of each set of flags, and she can't grasp the meaning of Ajax's flag gestures very well, so she doesn't want to misinterpret it, so she can only ask Fletcher.
"She's asking who we are and where we're from. Shi Yu looked at Fletcher in confusion, she squinted, and then whispered.
"Shi Yu, do you know the flag language too?" Fletcher was a little embarrassed, she hadn't been learning the flag language for a long time, so she couldn't understand it so quickly, but this companion really surprised her.
"Well, this set of flag language is a compulsory subject in the communication department of U country, and I went on a mission with Lexington and Saratoga seniors who have left the academy, so I wrote down some of them. Shi Yu nodded, and then said:
"But I only watch, I don't. ”
"It's okay, I'll respond. Fletcher said quickly, then sailed to the front of the group and made a flag gesture, which she did several times for fear of the bad light at night.
Ajax saw that the other party really responded, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then looked at the other party's somewhat unfamiliar flag movements, which meant:
"We came from the waters near Starfall Island, and we are a rescue team. ”
"Rescue!" Ajax hurriedly made more complicated flag gestures, a little eager.
Shi Yu narrowed her eyes, then looked at Fletcher's embarrassed face, looked at herself for help, she organized her language and said:
"She asked if we had any charts on us. ”
Fletcher nodded hurriedly, then gestured in response.
The two sides used the flag language to communicate before they were about to meet, which was a kind of greeting.
When he finally confirmed that he could pass, Fletcher felt like he was in collapse.
Just now, I recalled all the flag gestures I learned, but some of the gestures were still very non-standard.
Fletcher secretly swore that he would make up for it when he returned to college.
Ajax waited until the other party was close, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Through the exchange of flags just now, she could already be sure that the other party was indeed a member of Bismarck and the Atra team.
"Ajax. Fletcher, seeing Ajax's black coat, jumped up and hugged her.
"Thank you, Fletcher. Ajax let Fletcher put his arms around her, and then she looked at Bismarck with Quincy on his back and asked with concern:
"How's Quincy doing?"
"It's terrible, it needs to be arranged right away. Bismarck's face grimaced.
"I see, I'm sorry, the route marked on my chart is actually very difficult to detect at night, and now the situation is critical, everyone come with me. ”
Ajax also knew that there was not much time left before dawn, and that the attack on the deep sea would likely begin at dawn, and she said as soon as she and Fletcher separated.
Bismarck nodded, and then the shipwrecks followed Bismarck towards the Spiked Sea.
"U81?U505Are you nearby?" Ajax shouted as he approached the Spike Sea.
"Well, yes. U505=Leng Buding popped up, and then she saw Bismarck, quickly took off her goggles, and her eyes widened:
"Sister Beizhai, no, who are you?"
"North House?" Bismarck frowned, and then, remembering that her admiral seemed to call her sister so, she asked rhetorically:
"I'm Bismarck, and the North House you're talking about is Tirpitz?"
"Sister Meow?" U81 said softly as she floated up from U505's side.
"Are you U-boats?"
"Well, they're U81 and U505, the U-boats that the Admiral is talking about. ”
"So, hello, nice to meet you. "Bismarck is naturally very affinity for shipwives of the same nationality, otherwise she would not be so quick to accept the shipwives of the Black Cross mercenary group, including Nuremberg.
"Sister Meow, hello. The two little ones became very well-behaved when Bismarck confessed his identity.
Ajax interrupted their pleasantries and said:
"Let's talk about the old things after it's safe, and then, please lead the way, or follow those beacons, you know? ”
"Hmm. U505 nodded, and then, together with U81, entered the spiked sea area first, leading the way for Bismarck and the others behind him.
When she had crossed the Spiked Sea, Bismarck breathed a sigh of relief, and she carried Quincy on her back, and she was very cautious and tired along the way.
"Bismarck, are you okay?" Ajax admired Bismarck a little, you know, carrying an unfolded heavy cruiser, even if it is a battleship, it is enough to choke, let alone such a long distance.
"It's okay, I'll go to Minato to rest. Bismarck, though tired, did not feel that he had reached his limit, so he said softly:
"Keep walking. ”
Ajax is helpless, they have no way to share the burden for Bismarck, after all, they are limited by the type of ship, and their strength is somewhat inferior.
When everyone returned to the dock of Xingluo Island, it was already close to dawn.
Oi and Kitakami didn't close their eyes all night, they estimated that it was going to be dawn, and they also knew that Shenhai was going to launch an offensive during the day, and they were about to change shifts with others, when they saw Ajax coming with a group of people.
Oi narrowed his eyes, and then said to his sister Kitakami:
"Now, sister, I didn't expect Ajax to be so courageous. ”
Kitakami nodded, indeed, in this kind of time when she may encounter the deep sea at any time, daring to go out to meet her teammates is a show of courage, not to mention, she successfully brought her companion back, which is particularly important, so she said to her sister:
"Ajax is a role model for us seniors. ”
When Oi heard his sister say this, a trace of agreement flashed in his eyes, they were the ship's girls who graduated from the academy's light patrol class relatively early, but they never chose the admiral, so they witnessed the growth of the light cruiser Niang, and Ajax was also their younger sister.
However, Ajax's results are mediocre, so there is nothing impressive about them, and today's Ajax has made them realize that their juniors have grown significantly.
"yes, we haven't made progress in a long time, and we still don't have any clue about the renovation. ”
Oi was a little distressed.
"Transformation? Maybe I've found an opportunity that will allow us to transform as soon as possible, but before that, let's take them into the canal first, and you go and inform Senior Sister Hu De immediately, and I'll take care of it." ”
"yes, I see. ”
Oi nodded, turned and ran to the room where Hood was.
