Chapter 18, don't touch porcelain!
Kong Ming conferred the rank of Major on Helan. After all, he was also a special agent assigned by the headquarters, responsible for all the tasks of the branch, and if he was still a soldier, it would not make sense. At that time, the people on the branch must have thought: we have made great efforts to fight piracy, that's why the branch will send a big-headed soldier here, what is it? In general, our staff are about three ranks higher than those of our branch staff. So from the point of view of the division, this man is a brigadier general.
Domestically, only officers of the rank of colonel are eligible to own their own ships. Because this time was a special situation, in fact, Kong Ming could also mobilize a small battleship and a dozen soldiers for Hailan, but Hailan refused. In the words of Hyland: "A dozen soldiers, no more, no less" It is simple and convenient to simply carry out the mission as a person. So Hailan went to the East China Sea alone. He used the same technique used on the official passenger ships of the World Government to cross the equatorial windless zone as naval ships, which was the only way for ordinary people to cross the sea lanes. As for the pirates, most of them, except for a few who were able to be smarter than the camouflaged sailors who accompanied them, rowed across the equatorial windless belt.
In the windless area, in addition to the fact that there is no wind all year round because of some strange force, there are many huge sea kings living there. Navy ships and official government passenger liners from all over the world, with their special bottom-mosaic seawall technology, can radiate the same energy as the ocean and avoid the attack of the Sea King. But the pirates had no choice but to get in. So the inhabitants of the four seas often see that the losers return from the sea route.
They are in a terrible state of suffering. Because they not only lost to the brutal Great Line, but also broke through the siege of the Sea King class in exhaustion. But the truth is that the real losers and losers have died in hopelessness. In Rogge's Marine Corps cabin, a valiant female Marine is staring blankly at her desk.
The woman had purple hair and crisp hair. Her body should be filled with a youthful vitality, but the falling flowers at this time hurt the woman, like a sad face. There was a bottle of ink on the table that was running out. After all this time, she had already written ten letters of appeal to the Admiralty, and she had nothing but endless waiting in return.
"Bermel, is there no response this time?" A man appears behind Bermel. He was also an officer in the naval division of Rogue Town, but he had a rank one level lower than Belmer, and he was a second lieutenant. Looking at Bermel's disappointed face, the ensign sighed, "Does the Admiralty really not care about our life and death in the East China Sea?" ”
"Don't say that, Wagner" is too long for an ensign who is completely disillusioned with the Navy, please provide a shorter sentence. "If we hadn't insisted on staying in the East China Sea, maybe Rogge would have been even more chaotic than it is now" "Cheer up, Wagner, don't let the soldiers see their officers hanging their heads!" Bemel gave Wagner an intense, sunny smile, and Wagner's face did not change, but her heart beat faster.
Report... The faint smell in the air was suddenly interrupted by the voice of the soldier reporting, and a grumpy soldier rushed in and said, "Report Lieutenant Bermel, uh... Ensign Wagner, are you there? "What?" Wagner didn't do anything to bermel, and wasn't shy to ask the soldier if he had an excited look on his face. The headquarters had just called and said that they had received our letter of assistance and had sent a major from the headquarters "You see, all the efforts have not been in vain"
Bemel accidentally slapped Wagner, who grew up in the village of Cocoyas, was considered a "bad girl" by the villagers due to her unique personality, but no one could have predicted that when the bad girl left the village, she later became a defender of justice in the navy, and to this day Bermel never returned to the village, nor did he tell the people in the village that he became a sailor perhaps because bad boys were born to attract attention, and after joining the navy, Wagner became Bergel Wagner's secret admirer, but unlike General Wagner, he hides himself in plain sight, Wagner is shy, few people in the base know that Wagner has a crush on Bermel and Bermel, he has a lot of personality and has a good relationship with many people, so it is normal for the soldiers to be a second lieutenant Wagner here, but when the two officers and soldiers approached the colonel, they heard the colonel's angry growl coming from the room.
Who exactly are these paratroopers? A kid who hasn't graduated from the Naval Academy, just came to the East China Sea, and took over my command?
Just because he's the son of Zephas? "Calm down, sir. Zefas was once the head of the Navy "Nonsense, I don't know? He's not here now, let me tell you? Colonel Hill has a bad temper, everyone at the Rog base knows it. But if it's just a bad temper, he's still a weak person who wants to save face.
Bermel turned to the naval command, which bypassed Colonel Shier in violation of the order. Because Colonel Hill wants to use his powers to eliminate the pirates. But both Bermel and Wagner knew in their hearts that it was almost a pipe dream. Face. Colonel Shier wanted to save face.
But if Bermel hadn't offended the Colonel, he wouldn't have taken the risk. Every defeat, at least, is futile, and in the worst case, the lives of several comrades will be sacrificed. We can't risk the lives of everyone in the base for the Colonel's sake. Bemel's rebellious personality resurfaced at this point, and after a dozen unanswered pleas for help, she finally got help from her home office. In the meantime, she is ready to accept the wrath of Colonel Shier. Colonel Hill looked at the lieutenant with displeasure.
"Bermel, did you write that letter?" Yes, I did! Bermel stood in front of his colonel. But there was no hint of timidity in her voice. Colonel Schell had been a branch of other departments in the East China Sea, and since the mass conscription of the Navy Headquarters, Rogge's former colonel had gone to the headquarters, and Schell successfully took on the leadership of Rogge and was promoted to colonel of the headquarters.
In fact, he had no combat effectiveness and military value at all. Bermel was not afraid of him. As one of the best people in the base, she knew that Colonel Shier would only give her a small punishment. Because Colonel Hill needs her abilities. What's more, Colonel Shier was a taciturn man, and although he was a bit short-tempered, he didn't hold his men strict.
What she didn't know was that since Shier became a colonel, he had received a manual of six forms. Now, only Shier knows what his true power is. Shier's expression was serious. "Have you ever wondered how this office would react? What do you mean, sir? "We only sent one major! "!
"That's what you want to see, isn't it?" Bermel said dejectedly, why is everything like this? Did the headquarters really abandon the East China Sea? Ciel squinted. "Lieutenant Bermel, you overstepped the rank and asked for help, violating naval discipline, you know? "" Of course I understand, sir! Bermel shouted back, too. Very good, I'll let you run around the course until you can't run, and you're not allowed to eat dinner, do you have any comments? "Execute your orders, sir!"
Bermel saluted the shier, and without a word of begging, he accepted the shier's punishment on the spot. "What are you looking at? Apart! Schell shouted to the soldiers before turning to leave, when he suddenly heard Wagner's roar: "Report to the chief, in fact I knew about Lieutenant Bermel's behavior, but I did not stop her in time and did not report it to the officer, and I am also responsible for this matter."
You.. Schell glanced at Wagner angrily. No wonder he didn't find any clues, the original two bastards were hiding. "Okay, then you'll have to clean the base, all the handymen have a day off" "What? "Didn't you hear my orders?"
"Uh... Yes, sir... "Just before the two officers were punished, most of the Marines at the base were distracted Colonel Shier walked to the back of the base and pulled out a miniature elaborate eavesdropper, and soon a voice came from the other end: "Hello, I'm Clow. " The voice is childish and young, but the tone is unusually calm, and even the imitation facial expression of the phone worm gives a sense of youth and maturity "Something is wrong on my side." I was sent by headquarters. You tell the 'boss' that he'd better not act for a while. ”
"How serious? Not serious, not serious, very serious" "Don't guess the riddle" "It is said that only one major was sent this time, but the major is the son of a former admiral".. "I see" Suddenly there was no sound on the other end of the phone worm, but just like the phone eavesdropper Shier saw that Clow's expression barely changed.
After a moment of silence, Colonel Schell breathed a sigh of relief as he hung up. "Then we'd better not talk for a while," he continued. Then it's time to think about how to greet your son, who is visiting the East China Sea from the headquarters of the Navy. For days, Colonel Schell couldn't wait for a man who called himself "Highland" to report to the base.
But the longer he waited, the more uneasy he became. At first it was just nervousness, but today Colonel Shier couldn't even sleep. "Damn, what's the big deal? Can't department heads fool people? Colonel Hill, who had insomnia, put on her clothes, and after a few days of intenseness, she was on her way to Happy Street. But as soon as he opened the door, he was startled by what he saw. "Well... ”
"Wagner, why are you tied here?" He hardly dared to run away with a "razor", but fortunately, his quick reflexes were not revealed, his own style, taking off the rags from Wagner's mouth, Wagner shouted, "Oh no, Colonel Hill, the base is invaded by pirates!" ”
"Pirates?" Shier's brain is running at high speed?.After the boss hears Chloe's report that he wants to kill him..? No, no. The boss doesn't have a master who can kill people without being discovered? Did the boss hire the killer on the big fairway? Just when Colonel Shier's mind was full of cranky thoughts, a voice suddenly appeared in his head: "I heard about the lack of training of soldiers at the Loge base, and today I saw it, it's true!" "Hello Colonel Shier!"
"Who are you?" The Shire have begun covert operations.
Always be ready to use an iron: "Wagner, is this the guy who tied you here?" I... I didn't see it," Wagner replied honestly, and then I don't know where he got the courage, "where is Captain Bermel?" ”
"Don't be so nervous, they're all tied up by me" Hyland jumped off the roof, "I'm a major in the headquarters, Hyland" but to be honest, I haven't used the sextet yet, you're all hooked on it. The point is not to find it"" Colonel Shier, as the guardian of the beginning and end of the city, what you say doesn't make any sense! ”
