The front line received the news of the destruction of the patrol fleet and passed it on to its own flagship, which in turn passed it on to the general flagship, the Nelson, and then transmitted it to her admiral, the town guard of the city behind her, at Nelson's discretion.

Nelson knew that even if the news reached the Admiral, they would not be able to get orders immediately, and the composition of the Combined Fleet was too complicated, and the Admiral alone could only mobilize his own ships in Cullen Harbor at most.

As the guardian of a city in the inland seas, it is also impossible for the Admiral to pour his already weak fleet out to support her, and he needs to rely on the strength of other Admirals.

Wait for the Admiral to convene the Admiral, and then hold a meeting to discuss and divide the interests, and the time will definitely not be less than an hour.

Other words...... He had to rely on the seemingly large number of ships around him who were not of high rank for an hour, and he couldn't let the combined fleet suffer too serious losses.

Nelson's eyebrows tightened, and he couldn't make up his mind.

The so-called joint forces were not originally formed for the expedition, but the shipwrewn and the admirals gathered here to facilitate the entry into the abnormal sea area to carry out tasks, and temporarily accepted her management.

Once in battle, the seemingly huge fleet becomes a gladiatorial arena for the constraints of the shipwives and the morale of the admirals.

As the chief flagship, Nelson has the right to mobilize all the ships here, but she can command a large number of admirals in the fleet.

These admirals chose to go on the expedition with the ship girls because they were worried about their ship girls or other reasons, and this courage was worthy of the admiration of the ship girls, even if most of them only carried one battleship.

However, now these admirable admirals have become cancers, and they disdain Nelson's orders, arguing about what to do with so-and-so, and eager to take this opportunity to show off their demeanor.

The plan was not discussed, but it was first seen by his own people that his own people were not pleasing to the eye, and the noise turned upside down.

"General flag. This is a list of ships willing to obey our command, please take a look. Rodney, one of the vice-ship's mothers, said in the spirit network as he sent a list over.

"Well, have the admirals come up with a result?" Looking at the list, Nelson asked casually in the face of the good sister's flagless majesty.

"Hey, what can they do, the lord who just called the son of Beilun is almost about to rush out with his fleet, saying that even he alone can clean up all the sea beasts." Rodney sneered.

“…… Stupid beep? Nelson laughed angrily.

She had already sent the telegram back before the patrol was destroyed to all the admirals and shipwrecks, and they still didn't realize the seriousness of the situation? So many greedy snakes, how can you kill them all when you say that your 5 warships will kill them all?

Unless large warships with high firepower in the combined fleet form a firepower network. Small warships were responsible for intercepting and clearing the inner encirclement, and Nelson dared to say that the fleet could have remained relatively intact.

"Oh, you are talking foul language, you, as the general flagship, actually speak ill of the Admirals, haha, I'm going to snitch." Rodney feigned surprise and exaggerated in the psychic network.

Nelson smiled bitterly, how could she not know that this sister was teasing her, and said with a slight smile: "If you go to tell the whistleblower, how can I give you hush money, otherwise, you will keep it secret for me, and I will give you the identity of the general flagship?" ”

"Cut. Don't you want it, the thankless task of the general flagship is human ability? ”

“……”

"Haha, you're not a human either, you're a ship lady."

"Alright. I've seen the list, what do you think? ”

"How else can you look at it, just a few people, and then exclude newcomers below level 30. We can only guarantee to hold off the snake for a maximum of 20 minutes, after which we ...... Ask for more blessings. ”

“……”

"What do you think? If you lose too many sisters here, it will make it very difficult for the Admiral, and you said that it was better for the Admiral to choose a front-line sea area when he chose the town guard. It is comfortable to nest in the back, but too many black hands want to reach in to get a little benefit, and they are aggrieved. ”

"You say, how about we take the initiative?"

"Huh? Do you want us to go to the front to attract the snake? ”

"Well, our existing strength can form a battle formation, an aircraft carrier formation, and two mixed formations with battle columns and light mothers as the main forces...... In this way, we will continue until the support of the other sisters arrives. ”

"Well, it looks feasible, really, why are we all low-speed battle columns, if we give our avant-garde highness speed, we don't have to hide under the protection of those flat girls."

"Hehe, don't look down on other people's flat boats like the Admiral, to some extent, they are indeed more suitable for large-scale battles than us."

"Hmph, as long as I get 15 kilometers close to them, I can hit a group of tablets who want to make big news every day."

……

The plan never changed quickly, leaving behind the chaotic joint formation Nelson and Rodney chose to take the initiative to attack the greedy snake on the sea with the obedient ship mother.

At first, the plan went quite smoothly, and the pioneer troops of the Snake were vulnerable to the powerful fire of the battleships, and the shells fired by the main guns of the battleships, to say the least, from 300 mm were a large area of the sea.

Sea beasts are still within the range of living organisms, they will bleed when they are injured, they will die if they are seriously injured, and a ship's cannon will explode in the past and instantly clean up a piece of greedy snakes, and they will be injured by their fragile insect bodies.

But Nelson underestimated the number and intelligence of the snakes.

When it was found that it was difficult to break through the firepower of the ship's girls on the front, the greedy snakes that covered the entire sea suddenly all burrowed under the sea as if they had received some order, and continued to follow one after another without flinching.

On the surface of the sea and under the sea, the power of the main guns of the battleships was almost not much different, and the shells designed for buildings above the water exploded in the water, and the power was greatly weakened several times.

Just now, the greedy snakes floated on the water, and the speed was fast, but the ship girls could have an attack target, and now they all plunged into the water regardless of the distance, and the speed was slow, but the ship girls also lost their goals.

The snakes don't dive deep enough, and you can see them underwater from the sea, but you have to consider that the shipwives are firing on the sea from eighteen kilometers away.

At this distance, even a large warship with a length of hundreds of meters could only see a vague black shadow, and the small greedy snake could not even see a shadow.

In the past, the coverage of the firepower was adjusted by the difference in color on the sea surface, and it was completely based on feeling.

After the snakes disappeared from the sea, it was a complete blind fight, and the firepower of a dozen or so battleships and battlecruisers alone could not cover the entire sea surface at all, and finally the snakes broke into their long-range range.

One by one, the greedy snakes came out of the water and unfolded their umbrellas, even though Nelson and Rodney had already commanded the heavy cruisers to give priority to the elimination of these umbrella-shaped snakes, and with the almost straight trajectory of the plasma cannons, the hull of the ship began to be damaged.

More and more greedy snakes broke through the coverage of the battleships, withstood the bombardment of heavy cruisers, and passed through the decapitation of the aircraft carriers and the mending knives of the destroyers, and finally began to attach to the hull of the ship's mother and move upwards in twos and threes.

Dealing with the disgusting snake like a slug on the hull, Nelson's order was very cold, no matter whose hull it was, once there was a situation where the machine gun secondary gun could not clean the snake, the sisters around him directly blasted the snake into pieces along with the hull.

This is the best way to do it.

As long as you are careful to control it, there will be no sinking of the sisters, and once too many greedy snakes climb up and destroy everyone's weapons, it will cause the collapse of the entire battle line.

"General flag, no, there are too many greedy snakes, and I can't stand it like this." The machine gun on the control hull fired several greedy snakes that tried to approach his hull into pieces of meat, Rodney snapped.

This kind of scattered greedy snakes that are approaching while being covered by firepower, and you have to pay attention to the approaching scattered snakes at any time, and the low-level ship girls are easy to get tired and shake.

"Increase the speed, we will retreat to the rear, regardless of the fire coverage, the speed will be given priority." Nelson recklessly gave up his task while blaming himself.

It's just that it's not easy to escape from the eyes of the snakes, even if the shipwives give up aiming and reducing the frequency of the main gun fire as much as possible to make their own speed, more and more snakes still climb up and start to bite their hulls.

It's okay for the destroyers to run fast, the big sisters of the battleships are all bulky and slow Iron Kings * eight-hulls, no matter how fast they are, they are limited?

The situation of the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, which fell at the rear of the fleet to protect the aircraft carrier, was the most critical, and most of the hull was already wrapped in a dense network of greedy snakes.

"Don't worry about Eugen, sisters, let's go."

A resolute little girl on the hull bit her eyes and turned cold, and the huge hull began to slowly turn:

Eugen ...... Eugen will always protect everyone. (To be continued.) )
