"Hey, Marina, look what Ellie found. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Sister, your has run to the sea area that Truth Nai is responsible for again."

"Who called you so stupid, look at this...... Two submarines, you wouldn't have been able to spot them if it weren't for Ellie. ”

“…… Sister, this is obviously what you found over there, and the number shown on the photo is still your No. 3 plane. ”

"You...... How do you find out, hard ...... Isn't it?,Erie went to the truth of your side, and the sea area that Ellie is responsible for patrolling will become the truth of your business.,There's nothing wrong with it! ”

"I ......"

Cute with an open mouth.

Marina can't respond to her sister's strong words.

I guess Marina also understands that no matter how you explain what my sister-sama said, it is absolutely right, so let's focus on Ellie's discovery.

Ellie's reconnaissance plane took a photo on the sea behind her, and two black shadows could be clearly seen sneaking in the blue waves, and the section that emerged from the water revealed their identities.

Two submarines surfaced for ventilation.

It is impossible for a submarine to stay under the surface of the sea for a long time, which is not possible in modern times.

It needs to poke out of the water every once in a while to ventilate, or to stick out its periscope to look around and determine its position.

This is also a rare time when the submarine exposes itself on the surface of the sea.

If it is a professional submarine, it will always pay attention to concealment when carrying out these operations.

However, the two huge black shadows in the photo surfaced so directly, and the crews of both submarines were still leaning on the hull of the ship to cool off.

The life of naval soldiers is very boring, and the soldiers in the submarine have to endure all kinds of harsh environments, and the more primitive the submarine, the more they will encounter air quality problems.

But they should be preached and preached when they appear on the sea so openly.

"Sister, don't run around."

"Ah...... Ahh ”

"No, no, the Admiral will be angry, so it's better not to say anything, sister."

Of course, Marina knows what her sister wants to do.

The battleships of the past were practically incapable of anti-submarine capabilities against underwater.

However, it does not mean that the modern large warships of the Navy after the change of times cannot attack underwater.

Koji has been paying attention to this aspect for a long time, and the hull of Ellie and Marina is equipped with a lot of anti-submarine equipment.

Although from a modern point of view, the anti-submarine means equipped by both Ellie and Marina seem to be very backward and primitive, including the little devil, but in this era, it can be regarded as a pioneer.

It's a pity that Elle and Marina have never had the opportunity to practice.

"Well, okay, Ellie is obedient, my sister is obedient, don't stare at the truth."

"Hehe, I know that my sister is most afraid that the Admiral will be angry."

“……”

"Let's get the news to Sister Lexington first."

"You write the report, and Ellie will see where the Admiral is...... Hehehehe, sure enough, the distance between the Admiral and the enemy is not very far, and they will definitely not be able to run away with Avi. ”

The two cute young ladies didn't notice a small detail at all.

After Sister Ellie and Sister Marina teamed up to turn a lush seaside forest into a forest and hell, they kept in radio touch with Hawkeye on land.

The conversation between the two sisters reached the ears of Hawkeye and Hilgard on the shore.

"Submarines?"

Hawkeye's face changed slightly.

The city of Gagu does not have submarines, which are officially military establishments.

In other words, the submarine in the mouth of the two shipwives is categorically impossible to be the force of Kagu City.

However, the only people who have this type of professional-class ship near Gagu City are Zakun City, whose authority level is above Gagu City.

In this way, the purpose of the other party is clear at a glance.

"Battleship...... Going anti-submarine? ”

Hilgard was also puzzled.

Listening to the conversation between the two shipwives and young ladies, the battleship lady named Ellie obviously wanted to go and meet the two submarines they found for a while.

Do battleships have anti-submarine properties?

Not at all!

Human battleships are to be equipped with guns of maximum caliber.

It is also necessary to prepare complex protection and logistical supplies for these huge tonnage guys.

Don't look at the huge displacement of the battleship, after deducting the armor that occupies an important position, as well as the main guns, secondary guns, and anti-aircraft guns for various purposes, she basically has little room left to think about others.

The battleship ship is almost the same.

Their core nodes are all distributed to the main guns on the hull.

So......

Battleships could not be anti-submarine.

After encountering a submarine, the only thing the battleship could do was to quickly call the nearby light patrol lady or the destroyer schoolboy to come and escort it.

When did the battleship hear that there was a submarine haunting it, and it was like a puppy that saw meat?

"Did you think of something, Mr. Hilgard?"

Mr. Big Engineer's expression made Hawkeye misunderstand.

To a certain extent, the development of the Zakun Navy was promoted by him.

"What...... Oh, and surely the people from the city of Zakun had three submarines launched when I left, and it is said that they have maintained a five-ship formation ever since. ”

"Hiss~"

Five submarines.

Four battleships.

Presumably there are many more light warships.

The city of Zakun has such a powerful navy.

It's no wonder that the Federation, which turned a blind eye in the past, can't bear to do anything to it this time.

"It's just that I'm a little curious about how the submarines from Zakun City could be nearby, and they should be hiding in the ...... to avoid the eyes of the Federation Forehead! Hilgard, who found out that he said that his mouth was leaking, showed signs of lowering his weight in the future, and he closed his mouth at the right time.

"The location of the naval base in Zakun City has been discovered and reported by Admiral Ni Haoer, just yesterday." Hawkeye said.

"Yesterday...... Yesterday? ”

"Yes."

"Didn't he just get here the day before yesterday?"

"I didn't expect you to be so well-informed, Sir, Admiral Ni Haoer did indeed appear in Gagu City the morning before yesterday."

"It only took him one day to find out the location of the naval base in Zakun City?"

"Half a day, to be exact."

"How so!"

"The admiral seems to have guessed from the beginning where Zakun would hide his fleet, and a reconnaissance trip to sea brought definite news, and I said that there was a regular aircraft carrier in his fleet."

That's still incredible.

Prior to this, the naval forces deployed by the Federation near the city of Zakun were not found for a long time, although there were insufficient manpower and other reasons.

And as soon as the admiral appeared, he found out the answer as accurately as if he had received the news in advance.

It all sounds a little ......

"That's understandable."

"Zakun City will definitely want to preemptively set up the battle situation after discovering the exposure, so the two submarines will appear here."

"The situation...... That's not good. Hilgard said with a frown.

"Isn't that good......"

Hawkeye agrees.

Subconsciously, the two couldn't help but look up at the world behind them.

An hour ago, it was a dense green forest, but now all you can see is the black smoke and endless scorched earth destroyed by the shelling.

At this moment, they still have a deep understanding of the firepower of the two slender warships that are still quietly docked on the sea, but they are a little less confident when they think that they are about to face a submarine from the underwater known as the killer of large warships.

At the same time, it is even more confusing.

Defeated the city of Gagu and destroyed the pursuers.

It stands to reason that the two shipwresses should pick them up and evacuate quickly.

Even two battleships with great firepower, but the city of Gagu was not without the ability to confront them.

Shore-based batteries, land-based artillery units, and land-based airfields are all means of effectively suppressing warships at sea.

The Navy has never been able to pose a serious threat to land, otherwise the Deep Sea Fleet would not have been as unifying the Federal Assembly as it is today.

But no.

The two shipwives refused to carry Hawkeye and his men.

The reason is that as the admiral's ship's wife, only their admiral's brother can set foot on their ship's hull.

But both Hawkeye and Hilgard could hear something else in the attitude of the two shipwives: it seemed that they were here for more than just to save them.

They.

Or the admiral brother they call it.

The rumored young Admiral was scheming for more.

……

"This is the report that Truth Nai just sent back."

In the bridge command room of the USS Lexington, the secretary ship submitted a report to the Admiral.

"Roar~ two submarines, looking at the volume, this tonnage is not small, so our plan has succeeded?" Shaking the printed photo in his hand, the Admiral's eyebrows were light.

"Where is Avi?"

When it comes to submarines, most people first think of destroyers.

Because history or screen movies have told people countless times how the elusive submarine was chased up and down by the destroyers and fled in embarrassment.

Destroyer schoolboy or something.

That's really amazing!

(serious face)

"You want Avi to go and intercept two submarines?"

"No, I just want the little devil to hide and not scare our guests."

"According to Yu's previous arrangement, Avi is 15 kilometers ahead of Yu, and there are still 27 kilometers away from the two submarines."

"Hmm...... Inform Ellie and Marina to withdraw to the sea area of Point B according to the plan, let them cooperate with the road and the sea first, and the land airfield, heh, kill his submarine in advance. ”

"Do you need to send the children to escort you?"

"Hmm~ No, Lexington, you reserve your energy and prepare to deal with our uninvited guests."

"Okay."

"Notify the little devil and let her move towards point H."

"H-spot? Yu thinks he should go to point F! ”

“F？”

"Yu thinks that the enemy's main force will appear from this direction."

"But I think it's supposed to be H, you see his submarine is from point H."

"That's camouflage, Admiral, you should learn to look at the whole situation, the enemy can only enter from point F, beyond point H...... They couldn't get that far in one night. ”

"Well, well, ma'am, you have a point."

"What's your name?"

"Ah, I mean Lexington, you're right."

"Hmph~Yu***"

"What did you say?"

"Nope!"

“……”
