Chapter 55: The Worst
With the capture of resource point B, there is no longer a large threat around the town guard mansion, and Yan Feng can feel a lot more at ease when he goes out, and after praising Bismarck's excellent command, Yan Feng entrusted Lexington to continue to take care of the town guard mansion.
"It's okay here to guard the mansion, but you must be careful on your side." Lexington said with some concern, after all, the current situation of Japon is really not very reassuring.
'Well, I will. After the area around the town guard mansion settles down, I will be able to concentrate on dealing with the affairs of Jiepen, and I have a hunch that if the top brass of the Admiralty wants to make trouble, it should be in these two days, after all, April is only a few days away. Yan Feng guessed.
'Anyway, Commander, you must ensure your safety first, and we will all be waiting for you to return safely at the town guard's mansion. Lexington said softly.
Thank you, ma'am, so let's stop at that. After thanking Lexington for his thoughtfulness, Yan Feng cut off the communication.
Soon after Yan Feng finished the communication, the door was opened with a "bang", and the sister-in-law Saratoga rushed in excitedly.
"Brother-in-law, what do you think of the dress I bought?" As he spoke, he showed Yan Feng the blue and white dress he was wearing, and Saratoga's whole person exuded charming charm against the backdrop of his loose blonde hair.
"Well, it's very good-looking, and it looks very youthful and energetic with Gaga's temperament." Yan Feng did not hesitate to praise Saratoga.
"Hehe, brother-in-law likes it, but Gaga has been picking for a long time." After hearing Yan Feng's evaluation, Saratoga happily grabbed Yan Feng's arm and said.
"What about the others? Did they buy clothes? After Yan Feng saw his sister-in-law's new clothes, he was a little looking forward to the new outfits of other ship girls.
"Only Gaga and Hood bought new clothes, King Kong took Takao and the little ones to the shrine, and when he came back, he also bought some gomori." Saratoga shook Yan Feng's arm and said, seemingly in a good mood.
"Oh? So what kind of clothes did Hood buy? Yan Feng asked with interest, this usually dignified and elegant lady who fried her hair when she mentioned Bismarck, Yan Feng really wanted to know what kind of clothes she bought.
"Admiral...... This is the new dress I bought. At this moment, Hood's somewhat shy voice suddenly came from the door.
When Yan Feng raised his head, he found that Hood was wearing a red Jiepen traditional kimono, and the gorgeous oriental dress was wrapped around the blonde and blue-eyed Western beauty Hood, giving people a strange temptation, plus now Hood's shy and timid expression was really quite attractive to Yan Feng's eyeballs.
After finding that Yan Feng's gaze was fixed, Saratoga puffed up her cheeks with some dissatisfaction, pinched Yan Feng's waist and said, "Brother-in-law, you didn't look like this when you saw Gaga's new clothes just now, does Hood really look so good in this outfit?" β
Yan Feng, who was awakened by his sister-in-law's waist pinching attack, looked at Hood's increasingly ruddy face and said, "Ah, it's really good-looking." The blonde Hood wears this oriental style and makes people feel like they are out of place, so I'm going to be stunned, haha"
However, it is clear that Yan Feng's dry smile can't deceive the quick-witted Saratoga.
"Brother-in-law, if you like this kind of clothes, next time Jiajia will secretly wear it for you." The sister-in-law said softly in Yan Feng's ear.
"Uh, ahem. What's that, Hood, you look good in this dress, and the others are too? I have important things to tell you. Hearing Saratoga's whisper, Yan Feng's heart was distracted for a moment, but after seeing Hood's eyes gradually change to contempt, he immediately changed to a serious look and changed the topic.
"Everyone has returned, if anything happens to the Admiral, gather them all." After hearing that Yan Feng had something serious to say, Hood immediately said with a straight face.
"Well, I'll let them know." Then Yan Feng called all the ship girls over in the spiritual network.
After everyone arrived, Yan Feng continued: "I have already received a communication from Lexington and Bismarck just now, and they have led the shipwives of the town guard mansion to successfully capture resource point B. β
When the girls heard this, they were a little excited, but Hood asked at this time, "So what about the damage of the shipwives who attacked, and what about the thief cat?" β
Hearing that Hood was concerned about Bismarck's safety first, Yan Feng snickered in his heart, but said without showing any clue on his face, "Our damage is very small, only Bismarck, Prince Eugen and Admiral Hipper are broken, and the others are only some minor injuries." β
"Humph! Is that so, that thief cat would be injured in this kind of battle, it's really unorthodox. Hearing Bismarck's eyes, there was a moment of panic, but he immediately raised his head and said with a disguised pride.
However, this battle also exposed a problem, after Gaga left, the remaining aircraft carriers in the town guard mansion were obviously insufficient. This sortie on Lexington was barely enough to maintain the balance of power in the air, and if it weren't for Tirpitz leading his team to quickly break through the deep-sea air formation, the situation might have been even worse. Yan Feng said worriedly, considering that the town guard mansion had some weak air power.
"Well, brother-in-law, I also think so, the town guard mansion is now that the capital ships have gradually increased, but the aircraft carrier is still only three on the right voyage and one light sail, this time I came out with the town guard house after the air combat power is obviously a little stretched, it seems that after this time I go back, brother-in-law, you are going to build a new aircraft carrier." Saratoga also put away her usual joke and suggested seriously.
"What about the new aircraft carrier...... I don't know where our aircraft carrier sisters in country J are? Akagi Kaga, Shozuru Zuizuru, and Flying Dragon Soryu, if they were here, they should be able to reassure the Admiral. King Kong said with some nostalgia.
"That's right, I don't know where my sisters are now." Xiao Thunder and Island Wind also said a little gloomily.
"All right, girls." Yan Feng clapped his hands, interrupting everyone's thoughts.
"It's useless to think so much now, anyway, there is basically no threat to the town guard side now, and then we should think about the problem on the side of Jiepen. So, did you notice anything unusual when you went out today? Yan Feng began to ask everyone.
"Hmm...... Speaking of which, we can always feel the watchful eye when we go out. Saratoga said first.
"That's normal, but I'd be surprised if you went out today without being watched. And this day of your hanging out will also reduce the Admiralty's vigilance against us to a certain extent. Yan Feng nodded and said.
"Other than that, Saratoga and I didn't find anything special. King Kong, where are you there? Hood asked King Kong.
"We went to the shrine to pay our respects, and the shrine debut told us that there might be something wrong in the next few days, so let's stay indoors as much as possible and not go out." King Kong replied.
"Well, it seems that the shrine has learned some confidential things from some source, and it seems that the Admiralty should have been in trouble for the last two days." Kaohsiung also nodded solemnly and said.
"Shimakaze also overheard the Admiralty officer who had detained Sister Nagato and them on the road, and he seemed to be in a hurry." Island Feng also raised his little head and recalled.
"Speaking of which, Daofeng suddenly looked a little nervous when he was on the road, I thought something was wrong, so it turned out to be like this." Xiao suddenly said, and Lei and Dian also nodded in agreement.
"Really...... These signs really indicate that things are going in the worst direction......" Yan Feng rubbed his eyebrows with a headache and said.
"I think so, so let's plan for the worst. And this is also an opportunity, and the Admiralty's control over other places will definitely be relaxed in the event of civil unrest in Jiebon, and perhaps we can take this opportunity to rescue Nagato and Mutsu. Hood pushed his glasses and calmly analyzed.
"This is also a choice, but if you can, you still don't want to encounter the worst situation, if the Admiralty really succeeds, the situation of the shipwives in Jiepen and the surrounding international situation will change dramatically. This is a bad sign in the context of global solidarity against the deep sea, and it is hard to say whether conservatives in other countries will follow suit and carry out coups. Yan Feng scratched his head irritably.
"It's really strange for human beings to have a great enemy like the deep sea in front of them, and they still have the heart to rebel internally." Ray said disdainfully.
"Humans are such complex creatures, sometimes they can form incredible cohesion in a very short period of time, but there are also idiots who still stab themselves in the back at critical times." Yan Feng touched Lei's head and explained.
Then everyone discussed the next countermeasures, but in such a complex situation, there was no practical way to deal with it.
In the end, Yan Feng opened his mouth and said, "No matter how the situation in Jiepen's country changes, our main purpose is to rescue the ship girls, if the Admiralty does have the upper hand at that time, we will find a way to stop them, now everyone will go back to the room to rest." β
"Then Admiral, let's go back to the room first, and you can rest early." After saying goodbye to Yan Feng, the women began to leave the room one by one.
"Island Wind, you wait." At this time, Yan Feng, who found that there was something wrong with Dao Feng's face, said loudly.
"Huh? What happened to the Admiral? Island Wind reluctantly smiled and asked back.
After walking up to Daofeng and picking up her small body, Yan Feng asked, "Why do you look so ugly?" Are you worried about Nagato again? β
Tears flashed in Daofeng's eyes, and he grabbed Yan Feng's clothes tightly and asked, "Admiral, do you say Sister Nagato, will they be okay?" The Admiralty wouldn't use them for anything bad. β
"Don't worry, Nagato, they are capital ships no matter what they say. Although they can't kill humans, if someone wants to be unfavorable to them with the physique of the ship girl, they will definitely be easily knocked down. Yan Feng wiped her tears for Dao Feng, and then touched her little head lovingly and said.
"You can stay with me tonight, and the Admiral won't be afraid to be with you." Yan Feng smiled and hugged Dao Feng to the side of the bed and said.
"Well, if you sleep with the Admiral, the island wind will be much more at ease, but will it disturb the Admiral?" Island Wind is still a little timid.
"Of course not! If you have any troubles, try to come to me in the future, as your admiral is my duty to solve problems for the ship's mother. After putting Daofeng on the bed and climbing up himself, Yan Feng said.
"Okay, let's go to bed today. It's going to be a new day tomorrow, and the Admiral will definitely save your Nagato sisters. Yan Feng covered the quilt for Dao Feng and kissed her on the side of the cheek and said.
"Hmm!" Shima Feng finally smiled reassuringly, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Yan Feng looked at Island Feng's sweet sleeping face and slept with peace of mind.

"Boom" I don't know how long it took, Yan Feng was awakened by a sudden loud noise, and after comforting the island wind who also woke up, Yan Feng came to the window to check, and the fire and explosion sound from a distance made Yan Feng instantly understand the current situation.
"It seems that the worst has happened as scheduled."
