Chapter 18: The Fiasco of Fifty Years Ago

And just as the two ships were sailing to the designated position, on the other side, several people were standing on the roof of the teaching building of the Admiral Academy, watching every move here through military binoculars.

If Zuo Tianyou was here at this time, he would find that he knew all of them, because these people were the current governor Pei Donglai, the governor's secretary ship and marriage ship, the battleship "Angry Waves" with four-star qualifications and seven-star strength, and the principal of the Admiral Academy who had no sense of existence.

Looking at the isolated sea area with a telescope, fireflies and Feiyan drove to the scene of two designated locations about seven or eight kilometers apart, the white-haired principal of the Admiral College opened his mouth and asked Pei Donglai: "Old Pei, you told me that the actual combat exercise between the two newly promoted admirals, what attracts you and makes the dignified governor put down his busy official duties and come to watch the battle." ”

Hearing the question from the principal of the Admiral Academy, Pei Donglai replied with a smile: "Lao Liu, the actual combat exercise between the two newly promoted Admirals naturally can't attract my attention. However, the new Admiral named Zuo Tianyou, the Admiral Skill he awakened and never appeared in history - the summoning of the Ship Niang, made me very interested. I came here today, in fact, to see if there is anything special about the destroyer girl he summoned with his Admiral Skill through this actual combat exercise. ”

Hearing this, the principal nodded as he was, and then turned around and left the roof of the teaching building, and said to Pei Donglai: "In this way, it has nothing to do with me, it's windy here, my old arms and legs can't stand it, so I'll go down first." ”

Seeing this, Pei Donglai frowned slightly, stopped talking for a while, and said before the principal walked away: "Lao Liu, Tianhe has been gone for fifty years, why can't you come out, do you really plan to die of old age like this." You should know very well that Tianhe desperately sent you out of the battlefield at the beginning, not for ......"

"Pei Donglai, shut up for me. You know what I am, you don't understand anything, and you can't understand what kind of pain it is to watch your wife sink in order to save yourself. Pei Donglai's words were not successfully finished, but he was interrupted by the extremely emotional principal, who turned around to look at the principal Pei Donglai with a hideous face, and roared almost hoarsely.

After yelling, the headmaster, whose face was hideous and gradually retreated, gasped for breath to calm his fast-beating heart, and continued to say to Pei Donglai in a flat tone: "Old Pei, believe me, that kind of pain is enough to crush anyone." If you don't believe me, imagine for yourself, if one day the angry waves die on the battlefield for you, what will become of you? I'm telling you, either turn into a mad avenger, or give up being an admiral like I did. I didn't want to become a crazy avenger, that would kill more ships who were willing to follow me, so I chose to disband the fleet and die of old age as an ordinary person. ”

After speaking, the principal ignored Pei Donglai, turned around and walked quickly away from the roof of the teaching building.

Looking at the back of the principal who was gradually moving away, Pei Donglai opened his mouth several times to say something, but in the end he lowered his head and sighed, without saying anything.

Looking at his own admiral, who was also his husband, he felt sad because of his friend's decadence, and Nu Tao, who had been standing quietly on the side, couldn't help but step forward and gently hugged Pei Donglai, and comforted Pei Donglai in a low voice with a rare gentle tone: "Admiral, everyone has their own ambitions, Admiral Liulin has his own persistence and ideas, and is willing to carry out his own persistence and ideas to the end, you should not feel sad as his friend." ”

Facing his wife's comfort, Pei Donglai, who reflexively hugged Nu Tao, sighed again and said, "Hey, Nu Tao, I'm not sad, I'm sorry for Liu Lin." How high-spirited he was back then, he had three seven-star strength ship girls under his command, and Tianhe was even known as a quasi-eight-star ship mother, and almost everyone thought that he would become the seventh governor. ”

"But who would have thought that in the Battle of the Sea of the Thousand Islands fifty years ago, we would suffer such a crushing defeat. The former governor died on the battlefield with all his shipwives in order to cover the retreat of the large army. Including Tianhe, countless powerful ships and admirals fell on the way to retreat to the front-line fortress, if it wasn't for Zhan Lan's timely arrival, I'm afraid the front-line fortress might have been lost. ”

"In that battle, we not only lost the Sea of the Thousand Islands, which had been in operation for nearly a hundred years, but also suffered a great loss of vitality due to the death of countless admirals and ship wives. Not to mention, Liu Lin, who disbanded the fleet and gave up his identity as an admiral, or a crazy admiral and ship mother, it took me nearly ten years just to deal with these messy things. During those ten years, the guerrilla zone became almost a no-man's land. ”

"Nu Tao, in fact, I know, I, the governor, am the person who was selected to top the bag after the fiasco of the Battle of the Sea of Thousand Islands. And since his own admiral died in battle, he has not chosen the admiral for hundreds of years, and the reason why he suddenly signed a contract with me is also the result of what Zhan Lan talked to her, because it is an unwritten rule that only an eight-star admiral can be a governor. Hehe, who let me stay in the rear at that time, who made me the only remaining seven-star admiral in the younger generation at that time, I know, I know. ”

Seeing that Pei Donglai became more and more excited, Nu Tao hurriedly patted Pei Donglai on the back, and comforted him softly again: "Okay, Admiral, don't say it, don't say it." ”

Under the appeasement of Nu Tao, Pei Donglai, who was a little more emotionally stable, ignored Nu Tao's dissuasion, and continued: "Actually, what Liu Lin said is right, if Nu Tao is really the same as Tianhe, and died on the battlefield for me, then it is estimated that I will make the same choice as Liu Lin." ”

"No, I'm different from Tianhe, if it's really a last resort, I will choose to sink into the sea with you." Finding that he couldn't stop it head-on, Pei Donglai's emotions were out of control, and Nu Tao was very clever to make a roundabout battle.

"Really?"

"Really. Admiral, you know my character, and I will not leave you alone in the world to endure the pain of living. ”

"Then Futao, if there is really such a day in the future, remember what you said today, don't save me, let's sleep together in the sea."

"Well, I promise you the Admiral."

Judging from the effect, this move is very outstanding, and Pei Donglai's mood has obviously stabilized.

And at this moment, in the isolated sea area in the distance, with the "start" of the staff of the Governor's Office, the fireflies and Feiyan drove the ships to rush towards each other at the same time.

Seeing this, Nu Tao, who was a ship lady with terrifying eyes, hurriedly reminded Pei Donglai and said, "Admiral, the actual combat exercise over there has begun, don't you want to observe, hurry up." ”

"Hmm." After getting the reminder of the angry waves, Pei Donglai reluctantly let go of the angry waves, turned around and looked at the isolated sea area with a telescope.
