Hearing An Tong's resolute refusal, Huang He naturally didn't want to say anything more, "Okay, I respect your choice." "Huang He can only say this, originally with his authority, he could directly force the order, but after hesitating, he gave up this idea, I don't know if it was an illusion or something else, he instinctively felt that An Tong was not like a subordinate, but some kind of equal existence with him...www.biquge.info

"Then let's do it, the shipwives left behind in other ports have also begun to deal with the remaining terminators in batches, you can repair it and wait for further instructions." After Huang He finished speaking, he hung up the communication, looked at Hall helplessly, and shook his head.

"Such a young man should not stay in this lifeless place and be in the company of old men like us." The chief of staff Hall, who pushed An Tong, was more open than the commander-in-chief Huang He, "He needs a broader stage, and I can only wish him good luck." ”

Compared with others, Hall really appreciates An Tong's ability, and he does feel a little regretful at the moment, but after all, he is also a senior military official, and Australia is also a large war zone, and everyone will continue to operate without anyone.

"Think about how to use this batch of reinforcements in his hands, 100 aircraft carriers, the seventh admiral is so generous, let's not live up to her good intentions." Huang He said, "It's just that I'm inexplicably worried now, will that kid not even listen to our orders?" ”

"This shouldn't be enough, after all, he is a smart man, he knows the nature of blatant disobedience, and he won't be so stupid." Hall said, "But we also have to show the corresponding level, and we can't be compared to a stinky boy." ”

At this time, An Tong didn't care too much about the follow-up conversation of the headquarters, and he didn't need to care, the ships and deep fog on the front line began to retreat one after another, and began to support one over-track train node after another, and his task was completed, so he ordered the ship girls to return to the town guard.

So the battle on September 29 ended like this, the human race repelled several attacks in the deep fog with losses within the bearable range, and solved the hidden dangers in the rear under the perfect play of Antong, this day is still considered a victory for mankind, the Australian offensive and defensive war ushered in a good start and a good start, and the situation is developing in an optimistic direction.

As for the battleship on the other side of the deep fog, she still maintained the posture of listening to the wind, without any emotional changes, maybe she hadn't learned the decadence and frustration after the defeat, right?

An Tong pondered the lingering red lines in his heart, and walked to the airport alone to greet the returning girls, he couldn't follow them in this battle, so let's meet them in person.

The planes will arrive one after another, and the fourth team of the DPRK is the first to return, and several girls have obvious fatigue on their faces, and after getting off the plane, they hurriedly salute with An Tong, and then go back to rest, most of them will live in the special dormitory of the ship's mother, which is not used on weekdays - it has been taken care of by autonomic robots.

"Wow." The little princess was the last to get off the plane, and she threw herself into An Tong's arms as soon as she came, rubbing her little face hard, just like an ordinary little girl, and making a soft whirring sound in her mouth.

It's a pity that the shipwives in charge of translation have gone to rest, and An Tong doesn't quite understand what she wants to express.

"I guess I want to say that I work hard, right?" An Tong guessed, gently touched the little princess's head, and straightened out the red bow on her chest, which was the only identifier used to distinguish the other D-class expulsions.

At this time, Bismarck's second squad also fell, and An Tong hugged the little princess to greet him, and by the way, he was thinking about how to introduce the new Yamato to everyone.

But who knew that as soon as the little princess saw Yamato, she immediately broke free from An Tong's embrace, staring at Yamato who was still in the dust, and her throat actually let out a beast-like roar, if it weren't for An Tong seeing that something was wrong and hurriedly hugged her small body, I'm afraid she would have pounced, right?

If you have carefully observed the little princess fighting, you will find that this is her reaction when facing a strong enemy, and she has instinctively listed Yamato as an enemy at the first time.

"Uh... You..."An Tong suddenly remembered that the little princess seemed to have been sunk by Yamato and several other boats... Although the specific details still need to be verified, judging from her reaction, Yamato was at least one of the murderers of the year! (Note)

"Huh... It's you..."After seeing the little princess's reaction, Yamato vaguely recalled something, especially the aura she felt on the little princess, which made her instantly recognize the little princess with the same appearance as the D-class ship girl.

Bismarck even saw such a fierce little princess for the first time, and she didn't expect that this cute little girl who often came to tease the little turtle with her on weekdays and always gave her puppets to play with had such a side that made her feel palpitations?

The situation is not quite right, An Tong quickly thought of a solution in his mind, fortunately, the little princess took off the ship's outfit before and couldn't activate the shield, otherwise he might not be able to stop her with his strength.

But at this moment, Yamato actually made an unbelievable scene, she actually stood up straight and bowed deeply to the little princess?

"I admired your courage back then." Yamato not only lowered his arrogant head, but even his tone was humble and peaceful, "You are a true warrior... It's just a pity that I couldn't even pay tribute to you back then. ”

Her words were full of sincerity, there was no falsehood at all, and An Tong still believed in the fact that she was full of respect for the warriors, just like the captain of another legendary battleship, the Snow Wind, who passed by the officers and soldiers who fell into the water after the sinking of the Johnston, did not order to shoot at the American sailors, but silently saluted them...

Johnston's bravery back then was really enough to win the respect of both sides. Besides, the lower limit of IJN is better than IJA after all, and at least it still retains a little bit of bushido spirit, so it is reasonable that the current Yamato can inherit a little less flavorful bushido spirit, after all, those war criminals have turned to ashes, and Yamato should maintain his recognition of this heroic act.

Probably feeling the sincerity of the other side, the little princess stopped struggling, quieted down, and stared at her silently.

Yamato also raised his head, showed a kind smile at the little princess, and continued with sincerity: "It is my honor to be able to fight side by side with a warrior like you now, and having a partner like you by my side will make my heart extremely peaceful." ”

The little princess didn't say anything in the end, broke free of An Tong's embrace, picked up the ship's suit alone, and went back to take a bath.

And Yamato looked deeply at her back, and it wasn't until she was completely out of sight that she bowed slightly to An Tong and said apologetically, "I'm sorry Admiral, I've caused you trouble." ”

"Alas... History, after all, is heavy enough, so heavy that it is unforgettable..." An Tong does not have much to say about the contradictions between these two people, and even from the position of a Chinese, there is no good solution, I can only hope that the two can slowly forget the past in the future... After all, now everyone is not a weapon of war with a heavy mission, just a ship girl with those memories.

"You've handled it well, leave the rest to time." An Tong can only say this in the end.

"So I want to walk around by myself, okay?" Yamato continued to ask politely.

"Feel free." An Tong nodded, and did not propose to accompany him, at this time, Yamato should also want to be alone and quiet, right? After all, she is also a ship girl who has just come to this world for less than a day, and there are many things that need to be thought about.

Therefore, it is really necessary to say that the adaptation period is really necessary, not only to familiarize the ship mother with her own performance, to be familiar with this new world and the new commander, but also to be a process of their own thinking.

After Yamato left, Bismarck, who had been unable to interject beside him, finally found an opportunity, gently tugged at An Tong's sleeve, and asked in a low voice: "The two of them... What happened before? Why is the little princess so fierce? ”

Belch... Do you want to be so careful? People are already far away! Antong complained in his heart, and gave Bismarck a rough history of the Battle of Samar Island and the Johnston Charge, and to be honest, he didn't really want to tell the ship's wives about history.

"It's... In this way..."Bismarck's eyes widened in disbelief after hearing this, "The little princess is so brave? That's a 60,000-ton giant ship, and the difference in strength is several times..."Bismarck sighed in a low voice, nodded his head constantly, raised his head again, and continued in an extremely serious tone:

"The little princess is indeed a true warrior, and such a heroic act is indeed respected." As she spoke, she actually stood upright and gave a military salute in the direction the little princess left?

It was not surprising that she had reacted this way, and that a firefly hitting a Hipper would be respected by their German ship, let alone a feat like Johnston's charge? The gap is still a bit big, so it's normal for Bismarck to have some cute reactions.

But... Although I know that your German ships have always maintained their chivalry, and it was a little abnormal when they were frightened by the British, but the little princess is in a good position in the town guard's mansion! You can show your inner respect in person! What's going on with this atmosphere of paying tribute to the dead?

"Both of them are very good people, I believe they will be able to get along well in the future!" Bismarck finally said, and it seemed that she had full confidence in the two of them.

And Antong stopped talking, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, he actually wanted to ask Bismarck, if Hood came, or George V of Rodney's Royal Ark, how would she react?

But after thinking about it carefully, forget it, this kind of problem is better not to appear again in the future.

Note: Regarding the sinking of the Johnston, I have seen a more detailed study on the battleship, which has been analyzed from multiple levels such as combat records, salvage records, and ballistic angles, and it is very likely that Yamato hit Johnston with his main gun.

The specific research process is a bit complicated, if you are interested, you can see for yourself, as for how convincing such a research is, then the benevolent and the wise will see the wise. (To be continued.) )
