In the evening, Xu Zhonglin called Lily and all the ship's mothers over. He took out a resource card: "Lily, this is the reward for the second place this time, Cato went back early, I sent him a message to ask him, he didn't want it." ”

The reward was obtained, and the Gallic chicken seemed to be compensating this time, giving a lot of money. Since Cato didn't want it, there was no need to be polite to him, so he wanted to leave it to Lily.

Lily Barosh was a little surprised: "I...... No, Admiral, I can't ask for it. ”

"Give it to you, and you'll take it."

"No, it's something you earned back. Anne still has to be modified, and your resources are not abundant, so I can't ask for it. "Lily has been around for so long, and she probably knows how much money Xu Zhonglin has.

"I've asked Sissi to sell all the submarine cores, which should be enough for Anne to refit." Xu Zhonglin is indeed short of resources, he didn't expect the cost of the aircraft carrier to be so large, and the hull modification is good to say, the key is the internal aircraft, the main resource for this thing is aluminum, and the price is much more expensive. And the plane battle is easy to consume, but his current idea is to use the resources given by Intention to help Anne practice hard, and use the next three years to try to exercise Anne's combat ability, anyway, someone will reimburse him, no need to use it in vain, miss this opportunity, Anne will improve his combat effectiveness again, and the lost resources are estimated to be painful to death.

"It's really not good, I've got too much, it's not in order." Lily was still very persistent.

"Listen to me, this time you are going to get the drawings of the Atlanta-class, but my idea is that the three of Lin Xian will be converted into an Oakland-class air defense light cruiser first, with a displacement of 8,500 tons, which is better than the Atlanta-class, and it is in the same vein, and when others ask, they can also say that they have researched it themselves." He had discussed with Lily before that he went to France, and he was unfamiliar with life, so it was easy to be used as cannon fodder, but this was a rare opportunity to correct some of Lily's previous bad habits. Therefore, he felt that the work of escorting aircraft carriers was the safest, even if he was sent to perform some dangerous missions because of Canarias's relationship, the air defense was strong and he could save his life. Moreover, Lin Xian and the others were originally good at air defense light patrols, and they were very skilled in doing this.

"Lin Xian's hull is already good, and it doesn't cost too many resources to refit, I ......"

Lily still wants to refuse, but Xu Zhonglin is in a bad mood today because of Qiao Wuye's departure: "Shut up!" Don't you want to fish out the other cores you've lost? Let's see if we can summon our former buddies?! Do you have enough resources?! ”

Think! Of course, every day and night, Lily can always dream this way, Kassandna, Penepalo, Danae, Jade...... Each of them smiled at her, affectionately calling her 'Admiral,' and before that she would wake up and sob silently.

Lin Xian's three ship ladies slept with her, and they knew her feelings best, and when they heard Xu Zhonglin's words, their eyes lit up: "Admiral, are you saying that we are going back to Laayoune?" Now the third daughter followed Lily and called him Admiral.

Xu Zhonglin nodded: "I looked at the time, and then we first have to go back to school to attend the graduation ceremony, and then we will each go to the military headquarters to report." I asked, and the military headquarters usually gives you about a month's vacation so that you can settle down in your home and familiarize yourself with the situation. My idea is that I will report first, contract Minerva and Eurydice, and then complete all the modifications, plus Lin Xian and them, so that we have strong anti-aircraft firepower, and we don't have to worry about the air raid of that deep-sea perch. After that, we hurried to Laayoune, salvaged all those former partners, and then summoned them all first, so that Lily could report again, and we could use the French high-level contract machine to contract together, and each person only had one chance, so it would be wasted not to maximize the use. ”

Lily was really impressed, but she still felt that it was not good to take too much: "However, I have already taken a lot." ”

A certain admiral smiled: "You are all mine, Lin Xian and they are naturally all mine, why are you so clear?" Now you need to improve your strength so that you can save your life, and when you need to give in, I will not be polite. ”

Black Widow has now been completely reborn, and when Lily heard the phrase 'you are all mine', she felt a little nervous and shy in her heart, and lowered her head and said "um" and never refuted.

After getting the other party done, Xu Zhonglin took out a drawing of the Oakland-class air defense light cruiser: "Come, Lin Xian, a few of you come over and take a look, if there is anything that needs to be changed, tell me quickly, and we will modify it after we go back." ”

The hulls of Lin Xian, Goddess of Dawn, and Water Nymph are all British goods, and some things are common to American goods, but the strength of the Auckland class still makes the three girls very excited, but the concept has not changed.

The water nymph pointed to the main cannon and said to Xu Zhonglin: "Admiral, they all use 127 mm main guns, will the range not be enough?" She was very envious of the 203 big pipe that Qian Qian and they were about to have, and Lin Xian and the Goddess of Dawn also used 152 originally, but now they actually want to change to a smaller one, which is very insecure.

"Naiath, the 133mm anti-aircraft you use is far from the performance of this comparison. The main guns, radar, sonar, torpedoes, and anti-submarine weapons of this hull are all the most advanced like Barcelisa's, so you should pay attention to secrecy. The range of the six-seater twin guns may not be enough, but it can be used as an excuse to prevent the French from letting you do some dangerous work. Moreover, this is also in line with the positioning of our group, and in the future we will appropriately add some artillery light patrols with 152 mm guns, but not now. ”

Of course, the water nymph knows how good Barcelisa's hull is, and she heard that all the subsystems are the same as Barcelisa's, so naturally there is no problem.

The Auckland class was perfect, and there were very few changes that needed to be made, and Xu Zhonglin only slightly optimized the shape of the hull, so that the speed was increased by half a knot, to 33 knots. This kind of operation is simple in this world. In fact, in the original world, many excellent ship exterior designs could be made during World War II, but because of problems such as cost and difficulty of the construction period, many auxiliary ships would not do so. But in this world, every ship girl is a precious asset.

Lily still had some questions: "But it costs a lot to change it like this." "It's not that she doesn't want to equip the ship girls with the best weapons, but she's just worried that the resources are not enough, and if she can get all her partners back when the time comes, she can't summon them at the first time.

"It's not big, a lot of it comes with the Auckland level, I've calculated, it's enough, so you can rest assured."

Sissi felt that this kind of air defense light patrol was very good, and was worried about the safety of her side: "Admiral, should we also rebuild this kind of hull." In this way, the anti-aircraft firepower is also sufficient. ”

"No, your secondary guns are all this kind of main guns, which is powerful enough, and you have to believe Annie, the hull I modified for her is enough to hold up a sky umbrella for us." The race class, the best first-class light aircraft carrier, this is Xu Zhonglin's only choice at present. Best of all, the carrier uses the hull of a Baltimore-class heavy cruiser, which is similar in shape to the Des Moines.

When asked, it's a big deal to pretend to be a genius designer. It doesn't matter at all.
