In order to achieve good results in the annual assessment of the confrontation exercise, Luo Yi and Cong Yun worked together to draw up a high-intensity short-term training plan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

To train, you have to have fuel and ammunition.

Roy seized the time and used his expertise to convert the salvaged scrap metal into steel.

There was no need to change the internal structure, only the surface was derusted, and it didn't take much effort for Roy to complete the transformation.

Palau is an archipelagic country.

After lunch, Mr. Admiral and Miss Secretary couldn't wait to pull 20,000 units of steel and drive the transport ship to Koror Island.

Roy's town guard is located on the island of Bapaltua. There is only a small fishing village of less than 300 people on the island, so you can only go to the most prosperous island of Koror to buy anything.

Of course, it is said to be the most prosperous, but in fact, it is less than 8,000 permanent residents, and in Roy's hometown, it is not as large as the population of a small township.

Although the total population of Palau is only more than 20,000, the degree of prosperity is far from being compared with Singapore, Yokosuka, Dalian, San Diego and other large military ports, but the scenery here is beautiful, it is a top tourist destination, when Roy was assigned here after graduation, and was envied by many classmates.

What's more, one of the seven giant temples of the Cult of the Sea God was built in Palau. It is also the headquarters of the Diocese of Nanyang.

The emergence of chaotic energy and the wreak havoc of deep-sea perching ships mark the dawn of a new era. Many of the old religions of mankind are also gradually dying out.

But as long as death, the ultimate fear in the human heart, does not disappear, then religion will always have the soil to take root.

The Cult of the Sea God is a new religion that has developed in the last 100 years. Because its teachings are very much in line with the great crisis facing humanity today, and because it advocates ideas such as unity and struggle, the Cult of the Sea God has not only quickly become popular among the people, but also has the support of the Union government.

Moreover, the Cult of the Sea God is also very popular among the navy, especially among the admirals.

Every two months, the High Priest of the Sea God Cult performs a divination, predicting a day when the Admirals will be able to improve their luck and create their favorite shipwives, which is called "Holy Founding Day".

Although Roy is a little puzzled by this purely probabilistic activity that depends on luck, the people of this world have long been accustomed to it. After all, the entire military system with the ship mother as the core is built on the unpredictable science of chaos.

It's hard to say whether it's science or magic.

Palau's Admiralty Marketplace is managed by the Cult of the Sea God in conjunction with the Alliance Government. Admirals, naval institutes, and military enterprises were able to trade freely here.

The trading market is located in the port to facilitate the loading and unloading of goods.

Immediately after docking the ship on the shore, sharp-eyed merchants saw that Roy's ship had a very deep draft, and he was afraid that there was a large cargo to trade.

However, before these merchants could surround them, they were preempted by a big man in a navy uniform.

"Yo, fellow, I didn't expect you to come to the market, it's really a rare guest." The visitor slapped Roy on the shoulder, causing him to feel his whole body vibrate.

The name of the big man with the national character face is Zhou Hao, and as his name suggests, he is a bold Northwest man.

Speaking of which, this guy is also a legend, he has lived inland, has never seen the sea, and can't swim, so he has to study at the Naval Academy. And in the end, he successfully graduated from the command major with an elimination rate of 86% and became a glorious commander.

Zhou Hao was the light cruiser Ying Rui when he graduated, and later invested a lot of resources in his first year in office, and successively built Ying Rui's sister ship Zhaohe, as well as destroyers Anshan, Fushun, Changchun, and Taiyuan. The six shipwives under his command are all Chinese, and if you play stud, this is also a good hand of flush cards.

Of course, this doesn't work in the Admiralty world.

However, although his fleet does not have any big ships, Zhou Hao pays close attention to training, known as the exercise maniac, and the average training degree of the shipwrecks under his command is one of the best in Palau Moorage, and he is extremely good at night battles, and is one of the popular candidates to win the championship in this annual exercise competition.

Because he is also from China, Zhou Hao is the only one who can be regarded as friends with Roy among the many admirals in Palau.

Zhou Hao, who was familiar with himself, asked: "Roy, did you come to the market to prepare for the annual assessment?" Tell me if you lack any resources, and I will help you solve it! ”

"Major Lowy, please don't listen to his nonsense." A young girl wearing a Republican-style skirt walked from behind Zhou Hao and said quietly, "My admiral wasted all the steel in the town guard mansion in order to build a warship on Shengjian Day, and now our sisters don't even have repair money, so they can only let him come to the market to smash pots and sell iron." ”

"Ying Rui, give me some face...... Zhou Hao was a little embarrassed by his own secretary ship, "I also want to build a strong ship to make the strength of the town guard mansion to the next level." ”

"Really? But last time I heard the Admiral say in a dream, 'Flat-chested elementary school students are tired of watching, so I want the big sister of the battleship of the cannon ****'......"

Zhou Hao sweated like rain.

Witnessing this scene, Luo Yi was really glad that although his secretary ship was a little arrogant, he had a good personality, and he was not a black-bellied girl like Ying Rui.

In order to resolve the embarrassment of his friend, Luo Yi said: "Old Zhou, I happen to have extra steel here, how many resources can you exchange?" ”

"I have six thousand oil bombs and three thousand aluminum. Do you have enough steel to change? ”

"Of course, more than enough."

According to the market exchange rate, Luo Yi paid 13,000 steel and exchanged all resources with Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao, who finally had steel to let the ship's ladies into the canal, left with Ying Rui satisfied. Roy, on the other hand, continues to look for other trade partners.

After the Shengjian Day, there was a huge demand for steel, and it didn't take long for Roy's remaining 7,000 steel to be bought by a buyer from the logistics department of the Hainan Governor's Office. He bought 3,000 oil bombs each, plus 50 development materials, 20 quick repair barrels, and 50,000 federal coins.

In this way, the resources of the town guard will be able to meet the needs of everything from expedition drills to development, construction, and repair.

Finally solving a big problem, Roy and Cong Yun were in a relaxed mood and decided to take another look at the market.

The secretary was smiling lightly and humming a lively song, enjoying the atmosphere of casual shopping. Roy, on the other hand, focuses on the other side.

In addition to various resources for sale in the market, you can also buy a lot of equipment and props dedicated to ship girls.

For example, the quadruple acid torpedo produced by the Sasebo Naval Factory, the SKC/30 anti-aircraft gun manufactured by Rheinmetall, and the Tubenose Swallow carrier-based fighter developed by Ferrer Aviation......

However, the equipment did not attract much attention from Roy. It wasn't until he came to the shop of the Naval Armament Bureau in Brooklyn that he stopped for a long time and was reluctant to leave.

The most prominent table in the store displays the latest research results of the Brooklyn Bureau of Naval Armament, the 16-inch triple naval gun MK7 with GFCS (Artillery Control System).

"Mr. Admiral, are you interested in this naval gun? This is the highest crystallization of the scientific and technological strength of the United States, although the firepower is slightly inferior to the Japanese 46 cm triple naval gun, but the accuracy is completely crushed. The production of such the latest main gun is extremely low, and there are only ten of them in the world. As the treasure of the town, you only need to spend 50,000 steel, 60,000 ammunition, and you can take it. ”

Why don't you grab it?

Roy's belly.

The clerk also knew that the price of this main cannon was so expensive, I am afraid that not many admirals could afford it. It is placed in the store mainly as a display to highlight the technical strength of the enterprise.

However, because of his professionalism, he still lobbied Loy endlessly. If you don't buy this cutting-edge main gun, you can also buy other equipment. If a customer comes to the door, you must find a way to squeeze out the other party's pocket!

"Look at you so handsome and chic, you must be a European admiral, and there are many powerful ships under your command. If you think the MK7 main gun integrated with GFCS is too expensive, you can also choose the MK6 main gun, which is inexpensive and absolutely easy to use. There are also quadruple Bofors, MK28 secondary guns, all of which are practical equipment......"

Roy didn't say anything.

Those ordinary equipment did not arouse his interest, and the MK7 naval gun with its own fire control system, although expensive, provided Roy with a good idea.

Seeing that Roy was indifferent, the clerk was not discouraged, and handed him a leaflet: "Mr. Admiral, if you don't like the products in our store, you may be interested in this competition. ”

"What game?" Roy took the leaflet.

"The first Battle Star Global Naval Gunnery Competition. Organizers: League of Nations Admiralty, Brooklyn Bureau of Naval Armament, Cult of the Sea God. ”

Roy quickly read the event description. To put it simply, this is a large-scale and high-profile naval competition that admirals from all over the world are eligible to participate in. The qualifiers alone will last two months, and the final venue will be in Tokyo. The most important thing is that the competition is rich in rewards, and the winner of the preliminary round in the Palau region alone can get 10,000 oil and steel and 4,000 aluminum, plus 100 repair barrels, 100 development materials, and 100,000 federal coins.

The final world winner will receive four of the latest GFCS+ triple 16-inch MK7 guns.

Roy was moved.

"Hehe, Mr. clerk, don't bother to speak, there is only one destroyer in this waste town guard's mansion, and he can't use this kind of large-caliber high-end main gun at all." An annoying voice rang out.

Roy looked back and saw a young man in the same white officer uniform as him walking into the store.

"German Cockroach ......"

Roy found the young man's nickname in his memory.

Because he hates it like a cockroach and has a bad relationship with Roy.

The man's name was Rudolf von Ludwig, a young man with blond hair and blue eyes, whose family had been Count of Thuringian since the days of the Holy Roman Empire.

In the Admiral world, it is common to distinguish between the so-called "bloodline" by the degree of black (unlucky) and white (lucky). And Rudolph, as a commander, also has orthodox white-faced European blood flowing in his body.

He graduated at the same time as Loy, became Admiral for nearly a year in office, and already owned the battle cruisers Scharnhorst and the Gneisenau sisters, as well as the light aircraft carrier Unicorn, a total of three large and medium-sized capital ships, and is now the strongest and highest-ranking admiral in the Palau Anchor fleet.

Given time, there is no suspense about being promoted, at least there is no suspense, and he is a new generation of admirals that the Alliance Navy Headquarters is very optimistic about.
