The archipelago, located on the northeastern side of the Snef Islands, is also known as the North Island, and at the moment it is still positioned as a chaotic area in the documents of the Warden Office. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Originally, this sea area was guarded by a small town guard office somewhere, but more than a year ago, it was unfortunately involved in a tragic struggle with the deep sea during the deep sea second shock operation, and the result was naturally that the commander and the ship mother who were originally stationed here were all wiped out.

Although the human race continued to send more commanders to advance the front, the crisis caused by the breakthrough of the defense line was not completely alleviated, and the pressure on the various town guards increased uniformly.

The undulating coral reefs and shoals make it difficult for small deep-sea people to swim in the area, and to this day the area has not been recovered, and there are very few boats passing through it.

The above information was obtained by Aritus from Eurry Ellie, Bird Sea and others yesterday on the convenience of the banquet, which also made him more or less aware of the past events here, as well as the more dangerous and troublesome sea conditions here.

"Lord Yuri Ellie, judging from the situation marked earlier, the situation in the North Island Town Guard Mansion should be quite bad." , The young man looked at the purple-haired girl sitting not far away, and said after a moment's consideration.

In fact, his statement is considered modest, and the town guard mansion that was destroyed by the attack of the deep sea is no different from the ruins. Even if several admirals had gone to the North Island Town Guard to rebuild the area, they had to abandon it due to a deep-sea attack on the shipping route, so it can be said that the reconstruction work originally approved was almost zero.

"The last Admiral there also complained to me about this situation~, Mr. Aritus has to solve the problem on the route himself." , The girl's casual words implied another meaning, and the young man naturally understood it.

"Can I apply to the Reef Town Keeper for the materials needed for reconstruction?" , the boy asked.

"It's okay, the previous governors of the North Island Town Guard Mansion have already stacked some of the materials there, and if it is expected, there should be some leftovers." , The girl quickly swept the light screen in front of her and casually solved several official duties, and said unhurriedly.

"If you still have to report to you if you are insufficient, can you set up the project first?" Of course, the teenager did not expect that there would be much use of the materials that were put in the wind and sun, so it was natural to apply again.

"Torikai, take out a standard list from the C02 dossier, or write a copy according to the previous template." , The girl's purple eyes flashed a little light, as if it was a little surprising that it had not been able to bait Aritus before.

"Yes, Mistress Ellie. A report on the transfer of materials has been prepared. Bird Umi, who was concise and capable, seemed to have expected it, and naturally sent a copy of the material to Aritus.

"Then let's wait for Mr. Aritus' follow-up report." , The girl looked at the young man who was still concentrating on inquiring about the information, and said.

At this moment, part of the spirit of Aritus is permeating the sea hundreds of miles away through an invisible spiritual network.

After staying in the Coral Reef Town Guard Mansion for a day and adjusting their status, the seven girls under his command have now headed for the North Island Town Guard Mansion.

In view of the fact that the sea area of the North Island Town Guard Mansion is still very unfamiliar to the girls, and the need to face some possible deep seas, Aritus did not go with the girls. He also had to deal with Yuri Ellie, pack up some papers, and make all the arrangements for hiring workers to rebuild the town guard, so he didn't have time to be distracted by his official duties.

…………

It is more than 100 miles away from Blecado on the turquoise sea

This is a safe sea area planned by the town guard, and there are always reports of the more dangerous sea areas infested by the deep sea, and at this moment, there are several girls on the sea level moving forward at great speed, adjusting their direction from time to time to skim the raised reef beside them.

"The situation in the sea area is more complicated, and the distribution of reefs greatly affects the combat method of maneuvering." , a white-haired girl in the middle, while using the main engine to sail smoothly, from time to time according to the rest of the ship's mother through the carrier-based aircraft and radar detection of the sea area.

Although I had learned about the complexity of the sea area from the Admiral before, after seeing the many and chaotic reef waters here for the first time, my worries were slightly aggravated.

And that's just the feeling of walking along one of the most common and most common shipping routes, and even here, the girls still need to be vigilant about the situation around and under their feet to avoid hitting the rocks. If you go directly into the narrower inter-reef passages, the more troubles and troubles you will suffer.

"The overabundance of targets on the sea surface makes reconnaissance missions equally difficult, and other aviation missions have not yet been carried out, and the impact on operations is not yet certain." , Anne, who is on a reconnaissance cruise mission at the moment, also conveys her views through the spiritual network.

Of course, she is the only one in the fleet at this moment who has this identity to directly ask questions, and she also needs to take on more tasks as a capital ship, and her voice is correspondingly greater.

"What is the impact on aviation bombing?" , Knowing that his group was still tasked with exterminating the deep sea wandering here, Veneto couldn't help but ask out loud. Anne's air support is an important force in the fleet, and if it is affected, it must be considered in advance.

"I haven't encountered this kind of situation in the academy before, and I can't be sure what the loss will be. However, it is not recommended to carry out aviation lightning strike missions, and its control will increase its attrition. After simulating the scenario of launching an aviation offensive in her mind, the girl with light brown and blonde hair in her eyes responded while closing her eyes and controlling the carrier-based aircraft in the distance.

Although Anne was confident that she would be able to perform aviation support here under the precise control, considering the loss of mental power and some unexpected situations, she had to explain the most likely scenario.

"Then it is better to give priority to the bombing support mission......", considering the loss of carrier-based aircraft, even Veneto could not arbitrarily ignore it. Although the strike capability of the aircraft carrier is strong, the consumption it brings is not negligible.

Recalling that when discussing the problems of combat with Aritaus, the two men had already considered the various effects that the complex sea conditions here might have on the execution of the mission, and they also formulated corresponding countermeasures.

The deep sea, which hovers here, relies on the obstacles caused by the complex reef and its own incredible speed (40 knots) to escape the pursuit of several previous admirals and fight harassment of transport ships and passenger ships along the sea routes, which can be said to be quite difficult to deal with.

Alitus was a little apprehensive when he first heard about it, but after careful analysis, he gradually put it aside and thought about the reconstruction later.

The reason why these deep seas can gallop here is not because of the strong protective energy layer or the powerful naval guns, but because of the maneuverability and flexibility of small ships in complex terrain.

If Aritaus knew that there were half a formation of deep-sea battleships wandering here, he might have considered retreating and fighting again, because in Aritus's fleet, only Veneto could fight on the battle line, and even with the help of several other people, it would be quite troublesome to fight.

But a high-speed bathyscaphe that bullied ordinary admirals with their complex terrain and maneuverability was not very tricky for him.

In terms of maneuverability alone, the speed of any ship girl cannot surpass the carrier-based aircraft of an aircraft carrier, and even in the case of surface combat, there are candidates who can block the maneuver among the ship girls under his command.

At this moment, Veneto's gaze swept slightly over the two girls on the periphery, as if he had already planned something.

"Call the flagship, there is a second-class radiation reaction in the area of 40 miles away from the Y direction on the X side, please order the reconnaissance plane to confirm it twice." Just as the girl continued to communicate with Arietes, Des Moines's thoughts suddenly came and she turned her back to here.

"That location is closer to the North Island Town Guard's Mansion...... Anne, please order Reconnaissance Formation 1 to conduct reconnaissance of the designated area, and ask Des Moines to continue to use radar to monitor this area. In the spiritual network built by the teenager, the girl's firm and courageous thoughts were transmitted to the hearts of the two.

"Flying reconnaissance missions are beginning to be carried out"

"Radar monitoring mission continues"

The two of them, who were already quite familiar with the coordination of the fleet, quickly carried out the order, and Veneto sent information about the encounter with the deep sea to the young man sitting in the town guard mansion in the distance.

The otherwise laid-back atmosphere suddenly became tense, and a few minutes later, Anne and Des Moines' reconfirmation report had locked on to the location of a deep sea.

"Level 1 combat readiness. The precedent of this combat mission was handed over to Suzuya and Mogador, and Anne was asked to continue the reconnaissance and combat support mission. The others continued with me to the designated area. Veneto, who had slightly announced the combat mission in the mental network, quickly elaborated on the mission objectives and plans.

The reason why Arrites and Veneto established such a proposal during their discussions was precisely because the operation required both mobility and firepower in complex sea areas, and the more demanding requirements made their options very limited.

Needless to say, Suzuya, who has a staggering number of fifteen naval guns, has enough firepower to suppress the ordinary deep sea of the same energy level, and because of its 36 knots speed, it can basically catch up with those deep seas with a slight overload, so it naturally became the first choice for this operation.

Mogador, which has the fastest speed in the fleet itself, also has eight naval guns, and although it may be difficult to deal with the deep-sea cruiser head-on, it is no problem for him to only play a role in circulation.

Of course, I had thought about the proposal to let the three destroyers go on a mission together, but I still gave up considering the safety of the fleet.

"Commander, I'll do my best~", although it seems that Mogador, who is still a little young, has a more mature side than other destroyer ships, which also makes Aritus pay more attention to the difference of Mogador as a destroyer.

"Suzuya is going to go!" The green-haired girl, who was still full of vitality, also said goodbye to the Admiral, and soon after, the two left the original formation accompanied by Anne's carrier-based aircraft.

While the separate detachment formed by Suzuya and Mogador advanced at a faster pace, the fleet with Veneto as the core did not stop, but continued along the shipping route. The fundamental purpose of this trip was to find out the general information about the abandoned town guard and the surrounding seas, and although it was important to eliminate potential dangers along the way, Aritus did not intend to choke on food.

In the chaotic reef waters, two petite girls are dressed in ship uniforms, and are passing through the complex and narrow reef channel at great speed, avoiding obstacles on the way as much as possible and heading straight for the position prescribed by the deep sea.

As Veneto had predicted, even the main engine was excellent and quite maneuverable, and it would be easier for Veneto and Anne to enter the place in person, which would be more likely to slow down the speed.

"Call the flagship, the deep sea has arrived at the intended combat position, and is now carrying out an aviation support mission." Anne, who was on the bombing mission, was aware of the changes through the radar signal transmitted by Des Moines in time, and quickly alerted Veneto.

At this moment, the two-person team composed of Suzuya and Mogador met a deep-sea cruiser with six naval guns across the reef in a reef-covered area.

Undoubtedly, the two immediately mobilized the naval guns mounted on the ship's equipment and relied on the parameters obtained by optical measurement and radar positioning for aiming correction.

Boom boom! The continuous sound of cannon fire sounded, and at this time, the two girls who were engaged in the deep sea did not project the cannon fire at one time, but took advantage of the cooldown time of the ship's guns to maintain an endless fire offensive.

In the training of the academy, the shipwresses also realized that in the initial course of the battle, the blind inclination of firepower would only create a weak gap for the offensive to stop, giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of.

Even so, the two men who limited the fire projection fired two shells at the deep sea every second. In the process of continuous circling and adjusting the position for a minute and a half, more than 100 artillery pieces also achieved the results of one or two near-misses. The sheer superiority of the two-on-one forces the deep-sea cruiser to fall into the downwind, and it seems to have escaped by acting on instinct.

As Suzuya and Mogador adjusted their parameters and switched shooting modes to prepare for a salvo, the sudden turn of the deep sea caused the two to be slightly distracted, but the instinct from the battle caused them to instantly activate the host's ability to overload, and continue to use artillery strikes to interfere while pursuing.

It was not only the two people who were fighting at this moment who witnessed this action in the deep sea, but Anne, who was using the carrier-based aircraft to reconnoiter and monitor the battlefield situation, couldn't help but let the carrier-based aircraft that was originally hovering in mid-air drop bombs to obstruct the operation.

It is very unrealistic to engage in a long-term pursuit operation with the deep sea in the complex reef area, which will greatly deplete the mental strength of the ship's girls, and it is precisely in this situation that Aritus and Veneto have formulated the battle plan at this moment to avoid falling into such a situation.

Not only the surface and the deep sea and artillery operations, but also the bombing support from Anne's carrier-based aircraft, and even the long-range fire support that is still coming, all of which are arranged to improve combat efficiency, this is the most critical thing that Arritheus has learned, using the most appropriate and efficient methods to carry out the battle, rather than wasting resources and fighting in the deep sea for no reason.
