Saratoga's goodbye isn't all about Koji wanting to keep it mysterious.

The successive launching and acceptance of the two Lexington-class aircraft carriers is indeed the trump card that Avalon is deliberately retaining to the outside world, but Koji will not play this set in front of acquaintances.

The main thing is that Koji received the news from home.

Or rather, the Great Patron European Imperial Mansion sent an inside message to the capital of Avalon.

The human fleet in the cursed sea area of the Northern Theater has broken out the first phase of combat with the deep-sea fleet, and the human fleet has successfully broken up the deep-sea fleet as usual.

This means that the next stage will enter the later stage of offensive and defensive warfare.

The news was similar to that to the town guards and admirals in the rear: Wow, it's an event, the salted fish hurry up and take out your harpoon hunting.

But for the Border Guard, especially for the Expeditionary Guardhouse like Avalon, the meaning is completely different.

Because next they will bear the brunt of the first wave of the deep-sea fleet.

Many sisters in the family have been fully prepared.

Mrs. Lexington has prepared a list of battles to face this deep-sea offensive.

Well, in fact, there is no list, and Avalon just a few people have to be the whole family to barely meet the needs of that event.

This time, however, the wife divided the sisters into three queues.

The First Fleet is still the main force with the two sisters Ellie and Marina as the core.

The Second Fleet is an auxiliary miscellaneous fleet composed of destroyers and submarines such as the Avi and the Great Mackerel.

In the end, the Third Fleet is now the sister-in-law Saratoga, who has now been launched, and this place can barely be regarded as an aircraft carrier battle group.

The First Fleet and the Second Fleet have completed their supplies in Avalon and are heading for the First Sea, and the message from my wife is for Koji to end this matter as soon as possible and go to the assembly.

In the news, Mrs. also told Koji a piece of news.

That is, this deep-sea fleet winter offensive war, as a regional activity in the northern theater of operations, the European Imperial Mansion should come forward.

However, because the headquarters is still in trouble with the Federal Assembly, this time the European Imperial Mansion is ready to really stand by after listening to Koji's words.

But this indifference is not really nothing, because the offensive war takes place in the cursed sea area, and the European Emperor's Mansion is also mobilized by the forces that are also deployed around the cursed sea area.

In fact, it is the current activity around Avalon.

The eldest sister of the Eye Niang, Hood, has received an order from the European Imperial Mansion to lead a group of little sisters out of Avalon.

Also leaving is the Prince of Wales, who can't let go of the European Imperial Palace, and the eldest brother wants to be the pillar of the European Imperial Palace fleet, which is full of destroyer schoolboys.

Originally, Veneto should have gone too.

But the eldest sister coolly said that she wanted to stay in Avalon, and she was also needed here.

If there is any problem with the fleet of the Central European Palace, you can call at any time...... She sent Artoria bomber formations over.

Burst~

The eldest sister really doesn't regard herself as an outsider.

"The situation is not optimistic!" Koji scratched his hair with a headache and said.

The Northern Theater is different from the other three major theaters, and the long-term comfort has made the admirals here lose their ambitions for foreign expansion.

Judging from the sketch chart of the vast Cursed Sea in front of you, there is basically only one expeditionary mansion in Avalon, and the rest are either outposts of little importance or strongholds of the Admiral of the Deep Sea.

Koji has seen the map of humanity in the Southern Theater.

People deliberately arrange an expeditionary mansion at certain distances to arrange it like zigzags, and there are plans to extend the defense line outward every year.

Once in a state of war, the capital of Avalon is likely to be surrounded by enemies on three sides.

Saratoga blinked with watery eyes and didn't speak.

What the Admiral was worried about, she could understand it as a mature aircraft carrier mother.

However, the sister-in-law who knows Avalon's current strength is now in a bit of a fluctuating mentality, and her eyes reveal that she does not take the problem as a problem.

Koji was still analyzing the report from his wife: "The right side can be entrusted to the senior sister and the Admiral Soday, and the left side ...... I don't have enough weight. ”

The Cursed Sea is in a semicircle as a whole.

The capital of Avalon sits on the left edge of this massive semicircle.

That is to say, on one side are the powerful and experienced remote frontier guards in the Northern Theater, and on the other side are the new admirals of the Federation who are thrown into the cursed sea like fish fry and developed by themselves.

Admirals on both sides can assemble a large number of ships to form a fleet at any time......

But the quality and grade of the ship's mother are obviously not comparable.

Lexington also clearly sees the problem.

The fleet assembly point arranged by the wife was inclined to the diagonal rear of the first chart of Avalon on the left side of the Cursed Sea, focusing on the empty line of defense on the left.

"Uh...... I remember who else was the Admiral near our house? Koji suddenly remembered something and lowered his head and asked.

Saratoga crooked his little head: "Commander Dowling? ”

"Yes, yes, that's him, how is he?"

"Let's take a look at my sister's report...... My sister said he had been temporarily released by the military department. ”

"Sure enough......"

Even the appearance of the Admiral of the Deep Sea was allowed during the war.

Then there is no reason why someone like Dowling, who has the status of an official naval admiral, is still locked up in prison and wasted.

"My sister said that the shipwrecks who guarded the town knew that their admiral had also regained their activity after being released, and they were currently actively preparing for battle, it seems that they are not all idiots who can't understand the situation."

Koji, who analyzed his sister-in-law Saratoga, only responded lightly: "Heh......"

He preferred to believe that someone had alerted the Dolling Town Guard.

Amanda has a lot of contact with them.

Avalon can know so much, firstly, his information system is becoming more and more developed, and secondly, he can get a lot of insider information by holding such a pair of big white legs as the European Emperor's Mansion.

Even the Admiral of the Dowling Town Guard was imprisoned, and the only way to get information was from the TV news in the face of the federal officials, saying that they could have predicted that the war was approaching Koji felt unlikely.

None of that matters, though.

Koji didn't really look at the Dolin Town Guard Mansion in his heart.

Without it, Avalon wouldn't feel like she's missing anything, but it would be a great help if the Dowling Town Guard could join in.

"Inform your sister and let her focus on this side......" Koji stretched out his hand to draw an area on the map and said, "The Admiral needs to know who is more interested here. ”

"Here? Needless to say, Commander Nimis's fleet has already begun to be deployed early. Saratoga said.

Koji was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized.

Uncle Nimis's Garo Town Guard Mansion is behind the sea area he is drawing.

As an uncle with a status similar to Sister Sharona on the side of Avalon, he is a representative of a major flag in the local area.

If it was someone else, he wouldn't have much of an idea, but now that he knew that it was Uncle Ni Misi, he had a trace of worry in his heart.

Avalon's side has been prepared for a long time, and it can be said that it has accidentally opened up the first sea chart as the battlefield of this winter war.

That is to say, this side belongs to Avalon to fight at home.

On the other hand, Uncle Ni Misi is completely an expeditionary battle.

Outside the border gates were deserted, and the logistics of the fleet needed to be re-established, and they were very short on time before the war came.

"Let's keep an eye on it." Koji said.

Lord Admirals returned his attention to Avalon's side.

Avalon has already begun to act, and Sister Camelia's twin star town guards have also begun to strategically deploy under the deployment of Sister Shalena.

Amanda is one of the protagonists of Dhaka's two triangles, but the town guard is calm and has not made a big move.

Rubbing the soft Oupai of the sister-in-law in his arms, Koji fell into thought......

Saratoga stared in horror with big watery eyes!

But she didn't dare to disturb a man.

With a wave of her little fist, the little ship girl of the aircraft carrier finally blushed and tried to adapt to someone's bad habits.

In the middle of the vast sea and the blue world, the USS Saratoga led four sturdy destroyers to break through the waves, cleaving a long blue wake behind them.

On January 12, 204, the Northern Theater of Operations of the Federation officially announced the official start of the "Winter Offensive Campaign".

Of course, Koji, who is far away at sea, can't see the live news.

When Koji heard about it, Saratoga had already appeared with him near Avalon's First Chart, not far from the temporary stronghold where the other Avalonian girls gathered.

The first shot of the Winter Offensive did not come from Avalon.

In the early hours of the 12th, a battle broke out near an outpost harbor far beyond the Cursed Sea.

The overwhelming black fleet was like an unstoppable monstrous wave, and in less than two hours, they broke the defense line of the ship's mother and destroyed the outpost base under the fire of the cannonball.

The local Admiral of the Deep Sea is also a bachelor.

When he saw the general trend, he decisively gave up his hometown and ran away directly with his ship's mother.

It was also he who brought first-hand information on the deep-sea fleet to the Admirals who had been waiting for a long time in the Cursed Sea, and the black fleet that covered the entire sea made the new Admirals who had just come out of the academy stunned and couldn't help themselves.

The same goes for Koji.

Mrs. Saratoga sent a television news report.

This was released by the official television station of the Northern Theater of Operations, broadcast by the Cursed Sea Radio, and then received by the Shalena Town Guard to Avalon, and then sent from the capital of Avalon to Lexington on the front, and finally the wife notified her sister Saratoga here.

has changed hands countless times, and the freshness of the first time has already passed.

The content of the news was simple and simple, and when I finally arrived in Hao's second-hand room, there was only a photo full of ship shadows.

But it was this photo that refreshed Koji's three views.

Terror!

Extreme panic!

A scene never imagined.

In Koji, the original world has long passed the era of large-scale fleet travel.

As the strongest war lineup of the era, an aircraft carrier battle group is already the most frequently heard of fleet size.

Sometimes, depending on the level of tension, Eagle Sauce dispatched two battle groups at the same time, and even three aircraft carrier battle groups at the same time, which was once thought to be on the verge of war.

But basically the carrier battle groups are separated.

It is rare to hear of two aircraft carrier battle groups united and dozens of warships in a fleet at the same time.

In the past, it was already spectacular for Koji to see four or five warships on the military news TV screen, and the appearance of more than a dozen warships in an aircraft carrier battle group at the same time was even more exciting.

But compared to the kind of photos he saw now, they were all weaker than in the past.

Hundred?

Two hundred and three hundred?

Or a thousand battleships?

You can't capture the entire deep-sea fleet in the photo, and you can't count how many black deep-sea warships there are down there.

What about the main force of the deep sea that has been dispersed?
