Chapter Seventy-Four: A Sense of Security?
(Thanks to the book friend [Happy Little Umbrella First Fleet] 1000 book coins reward!)
Li Ran listened to Bismarck's understatement, and understood that the situation at that time was definitely not so simple, he frowned, pointed to the two supply reefs on the top that looked like wind chimes and pears, and asked:
"What about the Wind Chimes Supply Reef and the White Pear Supply Reef, and you didn't encounter the Deep Sea Fleet at these two supply reefs?"
"No, the two reefs are very close to the east side of Island A, and the fleet chose to detour, although it took a while, but the voyage was smooth along the way, and it was not until the coral supply reef encountered the deep sea. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"In that case, we can't just hand over any of the three islands, it seems that the cooperation with the Thundering Town Guard, I have to reconsider. ”
"Admiral, do you want to use these three islands to further control the passage of the Death Route?"
"Hawkers, don't say it so bluntly, my idea is just to build a supply station and make a little money, but I won't be greedy, if you need to let go of the two islands, I won't hold on to it, after all, your safety is the first priority." ”
Bismarck saw that Li Ran did not hide her thoughts, as a soldier, she did not ask whether it was right or wrong, she only listened to orders, as long as it was an order from the admiral, even if she knew that it was wrong, she would first complete it and then ask if it was right or wrong.
She felt that Li Ran put them first at all times, and she felt cared for, but she was more underestimated, so her tone was full of determination and confidence:
"Admiral, in this dawn operation, Mishima is confident, and without the help of outsiders, we will definitely do our best to win it all!"
Li Ran smiled bitterly, he was about to speak, but he saw Lexington, Saratoga, and Richelieu standing outside the door for some time, and they also replied in unison at this moment:
"So do we. ”
Li Ran was silent, he sighed and said:
"Anyway, listen to the order, this is a letter from the cooperation strategy, Lexington, you arrange for Helena to go to the Thundering Town Guard, this Dawn Operation, your combat goal is still to attack Island C after the Thundering Town Guard's Mansion contains the two islands of AB. ”
Li Ran saw that the ship girls had to say more, his tone became cold, and he shouted:
"Do it, don't say it again!"
After speaking, Li Ran felt a little irritable, waved his hand, and signaled that they were all dispersed.
Bismarck didn't know that Li Ran's reaction was so violent, she looked at Lexington, who was still talking, and shook her head slightly.
The four shipwives looked at each other and gently closed the door of the Admiral's office.
Li Ran felt very irritable, he should be very excited to hear Bismarck say that, but anger, or fear, irrepressibly rose from the bottom of his heart.
He won't forget the look of the ship's girls when they came back from the break not long ago, but he was still there before he fell into a coma.
The tattered armor undoubtedly shows that the battle of the ship girls is not as easy as they say.
Li Ran cannot, and won't turn the ship girls into tools for his own profit, so that he is no different from some admirals in this world.
Li Ran felt very irritable, he walked to the window, glanced at a group of birds flying not far away, and listened to the sound of fireflies frolicking in the woods, he felt a little heavy on his shoulders.
Li Ran somewhat understands why Lexington said that the Admiral is very important to the ship girls, because the Admiral is not only the choice of those ship girls who have abandoned their freedom in this life, but also carries the trust of the ship girls.
Li Ran thought about it, and some breeze blew in his face, which calmed his anger a little, and he laughed at himself, he was still the same, and he was easy to lose control of his emotions.
Although he believed that Lexington and the others could capture Mishima, and said that it was up to them to decide this Daybreak, whether it was the sudden intervention in their combat meeting in the morning, or his unreasonable order just now, it seemed that he did not trust them wholeheartedly at all.
Li Ran sighed, I'm afraid I need to calm down, I kept saying that I wouldn't interfere in this operation, but I still interfered.
He turned, then pushed open the door to the Admiral's office, went into the bathroom, washed his face with cold water, and went downstairs.
Bai Nuoyan and Pinghai were making tea, Blucher and Hipperle were talking at the door, and Lexington and the others were no longer in the town guard's mansion, he sighed and sat down beside Pinghai with a sad face.
Ping Hai glanced nervously in the direction of the kitchen, and then quickly withdrew his gaze.
Bai Nuoyan frowned and said:
"Don't make a bitter face, I just saw your capital ship lady go out with a serious face, what happened to you?"
Pinghai also sensed that Li Ran's mood was not good, and she silently poured a cup of tea for him.
Li Ran didn't speak, picked up the tea, and found that it was very bitter, and his brows wrinkled even tighter.
Bai Nuoyan didn't know what Li Ran said to them, so that those ship girls were serious, but as a delicate woman, she still smelled that something was wrong with the atmosphere, as soon as she saw Li Ran with a sad face, she knew that she was sure that Li Ran and his ship lady must have had an unpleasant dispute upstairs, so she said tentatively:
"What the hell is going on? Let me tell you, although I have not been a midshipman for a short time, but I understand that no matter what happens, whatever the shipwives say, the starting point is for us admirals, who are not as sentimental as us. ”
Li Ran felt a little upset, he didn't know why he was like this, so he asked:
"If it were you, would you let your ship's mother take the risk?"
"Hmm, what is adventure? You say to be specific, except for enemies like the deep sea, ordinary people can't do harm. ”
"I'm not talking about this, hey, I don't know how to say it, but I feel guilty all the time when I see them broken. ”
"Poof. Bai Nuoyan couldn't help laughing, she sighed and said:
"Li Ran, I originally thought you understood what an admiral is, but it turns out that you don't understand. ”
"What do you say?" Li Ran was a little stunned, he couldn't help but wonder when he saw Bai Nuoyan laughing.
"Admiral, not only an identity and a title, but also the key to making the ship girls from weak to strong. Bai Nuoyan's tone became more and more serious, she somewhat understood Li Ran's thoughts, so she continued:
"It's not wrong to worry about the ship girls getting injured in their attacks, but you boys always look at the ship girls and ignore that they are battleship girls, they are Valkyries against the deep sea, but they must go through battles and drills again and again in order to continue to grow.
Even if it's those Lolita's admirals,They won't treat the ship girl as a vase plaything because they like the destroyer girl.,But respect the choice of the ship girl.,Choose to trust the ship girl.,Just like the ship girl who recognizes us and trusts us wholeheartedly, these admirals.,They will conscientiously carry out every order we have.,Even if they know that the order is wrong.,But they will always choose to back down before the dispute starts.。
I don't know why you're sad, but I know one thing, that is, trust depends on both sides, respect comes from each other, if you really trust and respect your ship's mother, put away your unfounded worries, put away those unnecessary emotions, believe that every attack they can bring victory, only if you firmly believe that they can win, they can be invincible!"
These words woke Li Ran from his state of confusion, and he understood why Bismarck said that, and why Lexington and they would approve of what Bismarck said, because they had faith, and what about themselves?
When I said that at the time, wasn't I denying them in disguise? Is it still trusting that I did that?
Thinking of this, Li Ran hurriedly asked:
"How long have they been gone?"
"It's been a few minutes, it looks like I'm going to find Helena. Ping Hai looked at Li Ran with a nervous expression, although she didn't understand what happened to Li Ran and those capital ships, but when she heard Bai Nuoyan's words, she understood that her admiral still took them too seriously, she thought about it and said:
"Sister Helena should be in the warehouse area by now. ”
After hearing this, Li Ran immediately got up and ran out of the town guard mansion, which surprised everyone.
Bai Nuoyan looked at Li Ran's back and walked away, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Come out, he's finally enlightened. ”
Lexington and the other four had been hiding in the kitchen of the town guard's mansion, and when they went downstairs, they were very concerned about what Li Ran said, so they could only ask Bai Nuoyan, who was also the admiral, to talk to Li Ran.
"Thank you. Lexington finally knew why Li Ran was angry when he heard Bismarck say that, and she sighed and said:
"Richelieu, you're right, the Admiral still underestimates us. ”
Richelieu, on the other hand, was not so optimistic, she was a somewhat romantic girl, she thought for a moment, and said uncertainly: "No, I don't think so, I just think that the Admiral is insecure." ”
"What do you mean by security?" said Saratoga with a puzzled expression.
"That, I read in the book, except for the tactical theory, the books written by human beings are quite useful, and they mention that when people go to a strange environment, they are easy to get emotional and even irritable because of their unrealized fears, which are all manifestations of insecurity. Richelieu said this, and she couldn't help but think of when she walked back to the town guard mansion with Li Ran last night, she realized that Li Ran had something on her mind.
Lexington frowned, she thought for a moment and said:
"Well, I talked to the commander about his hometown last night, and he said he can't go back, maybe it has something to do with it?"
Bismarck did not have so much sentimentality, she simply put the epistle on the table and asked:
"What now?"
The shipwresses looked at the letter and looked at each other, and Bai Nuoyan wanted to take the letter, but when she saw Bismarck's hand pressed tightly, she sighed, withdrew her hand, and said:
"Okay, I'm just curious, since you're not at ease, then I won't look at it. ”
Lexington, as a secretary ship, gritted her teeth, if she could persuade the commander to put down all his worries this time, she and others would be confident that they would take down all ABC Mishima, so she said to Bismarck:
"Let Admiral Bai Nuoyan take a look. ”
