01 Dawn on the horizon
As the night recedes in the rising sun, a golden glow gradually appears on the horizon between water and sky, dyeing the sky a touch of golden red and reflecting the ocean in a yellow color.
Mighty creatures shaped by cold steel are moored at the intersection of water and sky, like lions waiting to wake up.
Above the steel overtime, a young man in a white navy suit was holding the ship's mighty main gun, looking out at the empty sea level, the main gun that was reflected in the dull light was waiting for orders at any time, spewing dazzling flames and destructive ammunition.
"The sea is really beautiful."
The boy whispered, as if exclaiming, as if complimenting.
"Commander, the time for combat is near."
Behind the boy appeared a young girl.
The long silver-white hair is blown by the slight sea breeze, and the eyes are as clear as sea water and there is no confusion, but the fly in the ointment is that there is no expression on the young face, and the small sailor suit on the body can only make people feel that he is a childish primary school student, but the temperament on the body is undoubtedly the most perfect soldier.
"I know, I just want to see it again."
Facing the sea breeze, the boy and the little girl just watched quietly, as if time had stopped at this moment.
For about five minutes, I just stared at the scenery quietly.
"Prepare to pull the anchor, the maximum speed of the organ, the whole fleet repeats the order, enter the state of combat readiness, sound."
In the blink of an eye, the boy was already sitting in the middle of the bridge...... on the bench.
Although it is very scenic, it is quite a matter for the relatively poor-funded headquarters, after all, when he came to this world, he was really poor and white, and he didn't even have a penny.
"Any orders, Commander."
The young girl beside her stood beside the young man, her pale blue eyes were full of waves, and she maintained absolute calm.
According to the general war, a girl of this age has nothing to do with this kind of steel monster and fiery cannonball.
But the girl's identity is very special, because this ship is equivalent to her existence, and everything about the whole ship is under her control, in fact, the girl is in tune with the ship in a wonderful ceremony.
In the colloquial saying, it is the way of relying on the ship, so that the ship is imprinted with the soul of the girl, as if the existence of the dog god.
"How long will it take to reach the sea where the scheduled engagement will be?"
In fact, when the boy heard this kind of thing when he came to this world, his heart felt as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle.
"In about half an hour, the enemy will not actually sit still, and at worst it will engage our fleet in ten minutes."
The girl's calm voice has never changed since the first meeting, although the voice is still immature, but it is already a voice with a very military feeling, and although the temperament of the teenager is a little incompatible, but it can always help the teenager very well.
"yes, it's a little nervous."
In fact, the boy has been in a state of tension since he commanded the fleet to leave port.
"Is the Commander nervous?"
The little girl beside her put her slender hands on the young man's shoulders, and her cold voice had a little emotional color, like a small campfire in an Eskimo igloo.
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything, I didn't expect to be comforted by you, and I was going to organize a language to cheer you up later."
The young man took off his navy hat, sagged his shoulder-length hair that was combed into a man's ponytail, and smiled bitterly, with some shame and some relief in his eyes.
"Well, there's no way around it, after all, this is a real battlefield."
Before the words fell, a small horn sounded in the bridge.
"Hey, what is the Commander whispering to Hibiki-chan? Tell me about it! Tell me about it! ”
A childish but energetic voice rang out from the speaker.
"It's nothing, I'd like you to keep your eyes open for the most important thing, Ray."
The boy immediately straightened out his voice and spoke in the direction of the horn.
"The commander is shy! Sure enough, it's that kind of introverted man. ”
The sound of the horn not only did not subside, but there were bursts of laughter like silver bells.
"Don't make a fuss, it's the time of the war."
The boy had to knock on the bench angrily for a while, standing up from time to time, and using the binoculars he carried with him to confirm the situation in the sea area, although he knew that the girls who were the extension of the battleship had a better perception than himself, but he still refused to rest assured, maybe it was this excess gentleness that made the boy in the intrigue of the military department has been downstream.
"We've always believed what the commander said, and that's what he said."
The sound of the horn was switched to a slightly timid voice, but the tone was firm, and the little mouth fetish made the voice even more cute.
"Then I have to do my best to respond to you, it's really ashamed that this untalented commander still has to rely on your struggle."
The boy put down his binoculars and said in a slightly flirtatious tone.
"Just leave it to us with confidence! We're also women who can take charge of ourselves. ”
With a small sense of pride, a new voice sounded from the horn.
"I think that's all I can do, please give me a hand."
The warm feeling melted into the boy's heart, and it was called the power of trust.
"The enemy shadow has been found ahead, and it is initially presumed that the enemy has expelled the reconnaissance unit, commander, please give the order."
The immature and cold voice beside him sounded again, and the young man immediately stood up and observed with a telescope, and the black shadow of the barracuda that appeared at the end of the horizontal line was particularly conspicuous under the rising sun.
"The whole fleet obeyed the order, entered the combat state, launched a single horizontal formation led by the flagship, surrounded the opponent's flank, and the sixth destroyer team attacked!"
The boy pointed his finger at a dark shadow in the distance.
"Understood, Sixth Expulsion Squad! Sortie! ”
The petite maidens replied firmly, the instructions of the commander they believed in.
"Ladies, let these deep-sea monkfish understand who is the master of this sea!"
Trusted by his peers, and at the same time trusting his companions, the boy felt this deep bond, igniting the fighting spirit that was sleeping in his heart and was like a teacher. ”
"On the horizon of this dawn, carve a victory that belongs only to us!"
