The military meeting in the afternoon went well, and many people, including Lisa, saw Xu Zhonglin, who was wearing a brand-new navy colonel's uniform, and felt very depressed around him.

More than 100 people, including the newcomer battleship prototype Elena, Margaret, the aircraft carrier ship Millagria, and the battle cruiser prototype ship Niang Daogari and Amalfi attended the meeting.

Lisa took the initiative to propose: "Colonel, it is better to divide into two fleets according to the strategy formulated by the original Costa, and I should take the second destroyer fleet you once led." ”

The down-and-out aristocratic lady is showing that she has no intention of fighting for power and profit, and she will repay the favor, of course Xu Zhonglin can't do this: "No, the idea of the two fleets is right, I can't be busy alone, so five brand-new Des Moines-class heavy cruisers and two battle cruisers are under your command, two battleships and aircraft carriers belong to me, the other cruisers and other admirals are divided equally, and the destroyers are rationed one by one according to the escort configuration, probably the principle is like this, Lieutenant Commander Lisa, you can just take the plan." ”

Xu Zhonglin said this, and suddenly all the admirals were rejoicing, who doesn't want to lead more ship girls? In the past, Costa always controlled all the shipwives in one hand, and rarely distributed them to the people below. Now that the new chief is in the rain and dew as soon as he takes office, who doesn't like it?

Of course, the most profitable is Lisa, two of the latest battle cruisers, five heavy cruisers of Des Moines-class hulls, and her strength has skyrocketed tenfold!

The boss was so open-minded, of course the meeting went well, Lisa successfully came up with the distribution plan, Xu Zhonglin instead released the other destroyer contracts except for the Roman Moon God and the Nine Muses, and the fleet size was reduced a lot, but in this way it was more efficient.

In the afternoon, Xu Zhonglin followed Garibald to Taranto for the first time.

"I heard you got a lot of information from the two captured ship girls?" Garibaldi nonchalantly stirred the coffee in front of him with a spoon.

"Yes, the two shipwresses have promised to abandon the darkness and surrender to us. Austria-Hungary's strategic targets this time are Djerba and the Gellgana Islands, and we will be under a lot of pressure next, and I hope that when something happens, Tripoli will give me greater support. Also, I hope the Imperial Navy can help me stop the other side's support. "If you talk to the big guy, you will cry, or how can the big guy milk you?

"Well, I have seen these two people you persuaded to surrender, and their status is not low, after returning to the Admiralty, ask for more valuable information, the greater your credit this time, I believe Caprela will be happy to write down a note for you. I've informed you from the Tripoli side, and they'll support you in time. As for the Austro-Hungarian reinforcements? Hum! Are you good-natured when I am? They can't have any more reinforcements, and I think you can guarantee that they won't be able to get out of the Adriatic. ”

"You Wencheng Wude ......" to get the benefits, of course, you have to hold a wave.

Garibaldi waved his hand: "Okay, let's go down if it's okay!" ”

In the face of this kind of girl who shakes the S attribute, of course she can't count it like this, someone rubbed her hands again: "That, those two captives ......"

"Huh...... You can get the other party to surrender so quickly, the means are not very clean, right? Worried about their revenge in the future? I've changed their names, and now they're called Venice and Brindisi, do you think it sounds good? ”

What a fart! This broken name is basically the same as Cuihua, Xiao Ming and the like, but at this time it must be politically correct: "It's very good." ”

"So don't worry, I guarantee that they won't get out of the Admiralty alive, the Admiral-Hipper-class heavy cruiser is still very valuable for reference, and it will take a few years just to map and map, and no one will trouble you."

Must like! The saint is no more than Garibaldi!

……

Got the hard Garibaldi, but there were two more difficult ones Elena and Margaret. It's not that there is a problem with the attitude of the two, but that they are too polite and look like they are businesslike.

For this kind of difficult girl, someone also has a way, the ancestral cheats of five hundred years ago, the Ximen officials have a full set of customs clearance strategies, nothing more than 'Pan Donkey Deng Xiaoxian'. Donkey - although someone is confident, but he will be harmonious when he says it, Deng - someone is going to rebuild ten destroyers at once this time, and there is basically nothing left in the family, so naturally there is no talk of it. The other three can still be done.

So someone came to the two girls on the back deck with a plate of cookies and watched the scenery: "Elena, Maggie, let's have some afternoon tea." ”

Margaret laughed and gave him a blank look: "Admiral, the sun is about to set, Sister Bryn is right, you are really a little cheeky." ”

"Hehe, I'm here to discuss something with you, Elena, can your bridge be used as a flagship?" Xu Zhonglin felt that Margaret could get acquainted with him, so he naturally wanted to have a good relationship with another Elena.

Sure enough, Elena listened to the serious matter and replied to him seriously: "Yes." ”

"Well, if you use you as a flagship during the war, don't bother."

Elena shook her head, "Yes." ”

"And what are your hobbies? What style of decoration do you like? Are there any discomforts in the hull that need to be changed in a small way? "Someone saw that it worked well and asked a lot of questions in one go.

Elena was obviously very uncomfortable with this style, and when he asked, Margaret laughed on the side: "You are so funny. It's the first time I've heard of anyone concerned about the ship's hull discomfort...... Ha ha. ”

Laughing hair! With your little mouth, you can't swallow a cucumber even if you grin to the maximum. Someone's cheek is as thick as a Big Mac burger at this time: "I mean, where the battle doesn't go well, I can help you change it." ”

Elena reflected, but still shook her head: "No need, the hull of me and Maggie is a Veneto-class battleship, which is already very good." ”

"Veneto-class is good?"

At this time, the cold royal sister reacted: "Oh? Admiral, do you have a different opinion? What's bad about the Veneto class? ”

"It's not good anywhere, speed, firepower, protection, for a 46,000-ton battleship, don't you think that the data of the Veneto class is actually similar to that of Hood?"

Elena frowned and thought about it, it was indeed very similar, and she held back for a long time before she said a sentence: "My main armor belt is a little thicker than his." ”

Xu Zhonglin naturally would not refute, the narrow main armor belt, even if it is thicker at the thickest point, but the long-distance shells are basically washing the deck, and when the distance is close, they are basically interpenetrating: "But, Hood still has a rate of fire of two rounds per minute, I have seen the battle between Bismarck and Veneto, Bismarck also has a rate of fire of two rounds per minute, and what about Veneto?" It takes three minutes to make four shots. ”

"But my main gun is more armor-piercing and more powerful."

This is indeed very right, this is also the world to save the stunned, in the original world, although this kind of main gun is very powerful, but the barrel only has a life of 100 rounds, it may not be able to finish a naval battle, this world does not have this kind of problem, so it is not bad, the same reason, the problem of the French main gun is easy to explode in this world.

But there is another problem that the world cannot solve.
