Chapter 7: The Ninth Sentai
June 2nd. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the port of Sasebo Military Port, a 1,685-ton destroyer slowly docked at the designated place. The dinghy then extended its sampan to connect with the destroyer's sampan. Greeted by a group of strange officers, Kii walked to the pick-up dinghy.
In fact, there are only 6 warships in the Ninth Sentai Force, and there are quite a few transport ships that can carry small machine guns, and the main task is to escort the transport ships to complete the transportation work.
In addition to the reckless Niang Mayyu who was following Kii, the other 3 members of the 2nd Destroyer Team were also on the pick-up boat. After all, there were three officers who looked like elementary school students standing in front of a group of uncles, and Kii immediately noticed it.
Village rain, sunset, spring rain.
They are all very lively children, Murayu, Xili, and Mayyu are only 15 years old, and the spring rain hull is still doing the final test, and it is also one year younger. In other words, these are all children who should study in the country, but they have become ship mothers and must join the army to serve the country.
Kii rubbed the heads of the three little ones in turn. "Thank you for coming to welcome me. Don't think of me as a difficult boss, I'm only 20 years old. Now the hull of the ship is also under construction in Kure Port, and for a long time I can only sit in the cabin to carry out tasks with you. ”
To be honest, Kii prefers to study ship design, but now that she has a position that requires her to take office, she has no choice but to focus on these new colleagues.
It was early summer, and the crowd did not stop at sea. After going ashore to be greeted by a group of dignitaries, including Commander Sasebo Shiozawa, the five followed the guards of the Ninth Sentai to the newly renovated Ninth Sentai Mansion. According to the usual practice, the ship's mother also lives in the town guard mansion, of course, she can also apply for another house in the military port.
For the four children who don't know how to fall in love, of course, they prefer to stay in the team mansion, don't have to clean up by themselves every day, and can play with their good sisters in the lounge at any time, enjoy the delicious three meals a day prepared by the chef of the military port, and go out with guards, so as not to meet hentai who don't know each other.
"Admiral Kii, please, this is your office in the future." Following a senior civil servant to the office area on the second floor, Kii walked into a new office that still smelled of paint, with flat solid wood floors, snow-white walls, brand-new lacquered tables and chairs, several neat and beautiful desks, equipped with desk lamps, paperweights, pen holders, document racks and other office supplies. In the back there is a sword holder for swords, a map of Japan, and most importantly, a statue of Emperor Showa and a Japanese military flag.
Although there is no military rank for the ship, according to the convention, the admiral of the team is a military officer of the rank of Dazuo or above, and it is a matter of course to have a high-level office. The civil officials who work in the town guard haven't moved in yet, and they are all waiting for Kii to arrive, which represents a new beginning.
"Sato-kun, I'm very satisfied with this office." The one who led Kii over was the Admiral's secretary of the Ninth Sentai Team, Sato Shosa. The young man, who was about the same age as her brothers, always had an inexplicable smile on her face, and seemed to be easy to contact.
Kii wanted to say something, and Secretary Sato Gonjun showed Kii the items in the new office one by one. Even though he hadn't started using it yet, the man had memorized everything that was in each of the cabinets inside. Even when I opened the drawer of Kii's desk, Kii's favorite black tea brand was already ready inside.
"Our Ninth Brigade is mainly engaged in transport and escort missions, and the previous Admiral retired at the beginning of the year due to his advanced age. If you want to learn more about Sentai Nine, I recommend checking out the Archives below. Since the retirement of the previous Admiral, the affairs of the town guard mansion have been assisted by colleagues in the staff department, and the Admiral's military seal of the Ninth Sentai has also been kept by the subordinates. Now that the Admiral has taken office, this military seal is hereby returned to its original owner. ”
Sato Gonjun solemnly took out a small box with a lock from the drawer, opened it, and handed the set of seals inside to Kii.
"Below, the secretary of the ninth Sentai team, Sato Gonjun. In the future, I will ask the Admiral to give me a lot of advice......"
After leaving the office to Gonjun Sato, Kii went to the dormitory at the back of the mansion with four mother-level children. Compared with the six guards crammed into a small room, the living conditions of the ship's mother are much better. The dormitory building has a special floor for the six shipwives as accommodation. Each of the four children has a large single room with a separate toilet.
There is also a large warehouse on the fourth floor of the entire vacant dormitory, a temporary activity room, and a public bathroom, of course, the bathroom is limited to six ship girls. The management aunt who guards the fourth floor is over 50 years old, but her deterrent power is no less than that of a tiger, if it weren't for Kiyi's nod, the few guards behind who were moving things wouldn't have the courage to go up.
Kii didn't come empty-handed, and she left Kure Port in a hurry, but she didn't forget to buy a bunch of souvenirs in Kure City. There are six copies in total, because only the names of the six subordinate shipwives are written on the appointment letter.
"That's right, May Rain. Where are the other two? ”
Kiyi's question, the eldest sister of the four expulsions, Murayu, answered, but it could be seen that the other two were mentioned, and the calm Murayu also looked embarrassed. "Those two...... Lives alone at the back of the dormitory. ”
As soon as Mura Yu mentioned "behind the dormitory building", the guards who followed couldn't help but shudder, thinking that in the ninth team, "behind the dormitory building" was equivalent to a taboo.
In order to establish a good relationship with his new colleagues, Kii immediately decided to go to the other two shipwives to check on the situation of the other two shipwives on the way, and the four people who were expelled by the second and one guard were all shocked. Those two are the Demon Kings of the Ninth Sentai Team!
Just walking through the iron gate, everyone felt a chill, and there was not a single guard outside the seemingly ordinary hut. Kii, who was the new official, couldn't help but retreat, but in order to establish an image in front of her subordinates, she still walked to the hut and knocked on the door.
I waited ten seconds, but there was no response.
Kii increased her strength, but she pushed the door open that didn't close.
"Oi pro, it seems that there are guests, let it go~"
"Don't, Kitakami's shoulders are so warm, let me lean on it for a while ~ Open your mouth, aaaa ......"
The three-nil girl with black braids opened her mouth, and the other girl leaning on her shoulder, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, stuffed the peeled orange into the former's mouth.
"Is it delicious? Lord Kitakami. The orange-haired girl deliberately withdrew half of the orange after the other party had eaten half of it, and then swallowed it in one gulp. The crystal juice connected the mouths of the two, and the four eyes met, neither of them spoke, but enjoyed the leisure of the afternoon.
"Kitakami-sama~" The orange-haired girl has stars in her eyes, as if she has brushed three layers of flashes.
Very cosy little couple...... That's weird! Kii hurriedly covered Mayyu's eyes behind him and protected the four of them behind him. Kii couldn't hold on to this kind of scene.
"Oi dear, I'm here."
The words of the three-no girl made the orange-haired girl who exuded the temperament of a good wife a second ago turn her face instantly. She turned her head to see Kii at the door, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Oh, there are guests."
Without waiting for the three-no girl to speak, the orange-haired girl who walked in front glared at Kii angrily. "You're the new Admiral, aren't you? It doesn't look as reliable as the retired old guy who can do the job? ”
As a supercrossbow-class battleship, Kii's tonnage is one and a half times higher than the total tonnage of the six warships of the Ninth Sentai Army. But in terms of momentum, the orange-haired girl stabilized her by a few grades.
Because he was frightened, Kii couldn't speak for a while, but fortunately, the secretary who was supposed to handle the copywriting in the office, Gunquan Sato, arrived.
"I knew it. North, Oi. This is the newly appointed Admiral Kii, and he is also the latest supercrossbow class battleship in the Empire, and he is a ship girl like you. ”
"The ship's mother can also be a commander?" Oi and Kitakami obviously didn't look at the notice sent half a month ago, and they looked a little surprised. In their impressions, Nagato has the rank of admiral, and he is also the flagship and commander of the First Fleet.
"She's a 45,500-ton battleship?" Oi's first impression of Kii, who disturbed her and Kitakami's intimacy, was very bad, and although Kii smiled and gave a lot of Kure Port specialties, she still didn't trust Kii. "Looks like a light patrol."
Regarding Oi's evaluation, Kitakami shook his head in denial. "Oi dear, it is said that the Kii-class battleships attach great importance to the air defense system and use all-diesel drive, so the bridge is shorter than the Nagato-class and Kaga-class. Proportional conversion is about the same. ”
Kii didn't understand why the two of them thought she looked like a light patrol, and in terms of appearance, she was what an adult should be. When it comes to the bridge, in her design, the scale is as simple as possible, and the anti-aircraft fire and electric detection equipment are specialized.
Sato Gonjun is probably the only person in the Ninth Sentai who dares to reprimand Oi and the two demon kings of the north, and after explaining to the troublesome characters of the two Ninth Sentai teams, he saw Kii standing at the door in a daze, and he patted Kii on the shoulder. "Don't worry about this kind of thing, when it is renovated in the future, just let the designers expand the size of the bridge."
When Kii learns about the metaphysics of the bridge later, he realizes that she was teased by Kitakami and Oi on her first day in office.
……
Compared to Kii's embarrassing appointment, the 7th Sentai stationed in Kure Port was much more peaceful, and Yubari and the four Mogami sisters were studying the improvement of the take-off and landing of new seaplanes in the arsenal. Admiral Terumasa Sanjo on the side personally discussed with the technicians the modification of the ship's guns. Although it was the command's point of view to change to an aviation cruiser, Sanjo Teruma did not accept the theory of Nagumo Tadaichi and Yamaguchi Tabun and other aircraft carrier admirals, and he was relatively eclectic. On the one hand, they feel that the naval artillery alone is limited in many aspects, and at the same time, they are worried that the firepower of the naval artillery will decrease, which will make it a weak position to fight the enemy of the same level within the firing range.
On this same day, the military headquarters issued a secret order to Sanjo Terumasa, asking him to immediately lead the revised Mogami, Mikuma, and the rest of the available ships to Yizhou Military Port to join the 3rd Mixed Mobile Force.
This order was also received by Kaga, who had to stay in Kure Harbor because he was going to carry out experiments on a new type of aircraft. Kaga didn't know why, but in line with the principle of giving priority to military orders, he still followed the orders of the headquarters and took the lead in setting off for Yishu accompanied by a frigate.
"Akagi, Kaga has already left?"
Akagi, who was doing bow and arrow maintenance, saw Nagumo Tadaichi coming from outside the lounge, and was a little surprised by the other party's inquiry, after all, Nagumo Tadaichi was also the one who knew the order. "Yes, we left early in the morning. To hold an annual military exercise in Yizhou? ”
"No, it is estimated that the military exercise has been canceled this year." Nanyun Zhongyi stood by the window, looking at the busy workers in Wu Gang, looking very melancholy. The 7th Sentai is also making final resupply and departure preparations.
"Then what are you sending Kaga to Yizhou for? The headquarters can really toss people, and the few resistance forces in Yizhou still need our navy to deter. How wasteful is the army's horse manure? ”
Akagi's casual complaint, but Nagumo Tadaichi did not answer. Because it's not a bad thing to be able to do what Akagi said.
