"You already know, and yet you're asking?" Ella said unhappily. "I also need to inform the other admirals. The battle is serious this time. Headquarters plans to form a joint fleet with your garrison as the core. Someone will be here to meet us tomorrow morning. You only have one night to prepare."
"Remember, this battle is of great importance. The deep-sea monsters fight differently from the deep-sea ship girls. They seem to prefer wolf pack tactics. Hundreds of monsters gather together, and there is no chance of defeating them one by one. So..."
"Bring out all the battle-capable shipgirls in your garrison. I hope you won't let me down."
Ella's words changed the expressions of everyone in the courtyard. The difference was that Lexington, who came with Xue Cheng, frowned slightly and was a little worried. The Iowa sisters, led by Missouri, looked eager to try, their eyes shining, and a slightly ferocious smile appeared on their charming faces.
"Well, after being chased and beaten for so long, I finally have a chance to get revenge!"
Seeing that Ella seemed to be about to hang up the phone, Xue Cheng hurriedly said: "Wait, don't hang up yet, I have something important to tell you!"
Elsewhere, Ella sat in her office, crossing her legs and shaking them as usual. She said impatiently, "Anything else? You're not asking about a reward, are you? Don't worry, when has headquarters ever been stingy with you?"
"That kind of thing is fine." Xue Cheng said: "Actually, recently I... well, how should I put it?"
"If you have something to say, just say it. I'm busy and don't have time to listen to your nonsense!" Ella became decisive after getting into work mode.
Xue Cheng hesitated, carefully considering his words, and said cautiously, "What do you think about the possibility of recruiting deep-sea ship girls to fight against deep-sea monsters?"
"Hmm? What do you mean? Are you still refusing to give up and want to become a deep-sea admiral? Give up. Those monsters are irrational. I advise you not to overthink it."
"Well, it's a bit troublesome to explain in detail, so I'll keep it short." Xue Cheng took a deep breath. "The facts are right here in my garrison, along with over thirty deep-sea shipgirls. Do you want to come and see?"
“…” Ella suddenly fell silent.

8pm.
The sea breeze blew, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and there were faint flashes of lightning in the dark clouds. An inexplicable atmosphere echoed in the garrison along with the sea breeze, making people feel depressed and anxious.
Accompanied by Lexington, Xue Cheng took Ella, who had hurried over alone on a yacht, to his office.
Ella, who had been suppressing her doubts, finally couldn't hold back any longer after entering the office. She asked bluntly, "What exactly was going on on the phone? Did you defect to the enemy?"
Of course, surrendering to the enemy is just a joke. In the cognition of humans and ship girls, deep-sea ship girls do not have rationality and naturally will not take prisoners. Even if Xue Cheng wants to surrender to the enemy, it is impossible.
Xue Cheng poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Ella, saying with a smile, "The phrase 'surrendering to the enemy' is a bit inappropriate. It's better to say the other way around."
"What do you mean? The deep-sea ship girl came to you and surrendered?" Ella asked in astonishment. "How could those brainless monsters, who only know how to charge forward and fight to the death, do that?"
"Oh, when someone says something like that, you can't pretend you didn't hear it." A charming voice came, and the lounge in the office was suddenly pushed open. A woman wearing a black and red kimono, with her hair carefully tied up and even a little light makeup on her face walked out.
"So this is how Miss Ella sees us?" followed closely behind, her long white hair tied into a high ponytail, her hands folded across her chest.
Her collar was slightly open, and her deep cleavage looked even more unfathomable under the support of her arms. A crazy smile hung on her delicate face.
“…” He remained silent, but his expression was a little gloomy, and it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with Ella’s evaluation.
"You, you, you..." Ella widened her eyes and pointed at Xue Cheng, speechless for a moment.
"How is it?" Xue Cheng crossed his arms, a smug expression on his face.
As the first admiral in the world to unlock the deep-sea atlas, it would be a lie to say that Xue Cheng has no intention of showing off. No matter how humble and polite an admiral is in normal times, he will never be soft-hearted when it comes to showing off his boat.
However, as a time traveler, Xue Cheng had no connections in this world. Even if he wanted to jump ashore, he had no one to show off to. This time, the deep-sea monster attacked, and the Navy Headquarters called on the admirals to form a joint fleet, which gave him an opportunity.
"You...are you playing S with your ship girl?" After a brief shock, Ella looked at the three deep-sea girls suspiciously.
Lexington covered his mouth and burst out laughing.
"Why did we come to such a conclusion?" Xue Cheng was helpless. This was not the reaction he wanted at all.
"Because..." Ella was about to answer when her eyes suddenly fixed on the three deep-sea flagships in surprise. "Wait, this feeling... are you really deep-sea flagship girls? Could it be that what Xue Cheng said is true? Did you actively seek him out for cooperation in order to survive?"
And there was no answer. The one who had a say in this matter was another person.
He shrugged and feigned helplessness, saying, "It can't be helped. Although splitting those monsters weakened our strength, it also allowed us to wake up from the entanglement of the deep sea's resentment. After all, any rational life will make the right decision when its survival is threatened."
Ella's expression was heavy. "That being said, there are also noble people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for their ideals and beliefs."
"It was just a moment of hot-bloodedness and self-admiration." He chuckled and said, "Ideals? Beliefs? If you die, there's nothing left."
"You selfish guys, it seems you will never understand." Ella shook her head and sighed.
"Alright, I didn't invite you here today to discuss the values of our two races." He put an end to the two men's argument and said with a smile, "I don't know what that bastard admiral said to you, but before we get down to business, as the head of the Deep Sea Garrison, I want to make something clear to you."
"The Deep Sea Garrison is a completely autonomous and independent organization. Our relationship with the bastard Admiral is merely a partnership. We've formed an alliance solely to jointly defend against the deep-sea monsters. So, don't treat us as his subordinates."
Ella's eyes lit up, and her words seemed to reveal some intention. She asked eagerly, "What if I, on behalf of the Navy Headquarters, invite you to join..."
"Hey, don't treat me like I don't exist." Xue Cheng helplessly interrupted Ella. He glared at her fiercely at first, and when he saw her sticking out her tongue like a child who had done something wrong, he continued, "Isn't it a bit too much to try to steal my girlfriend right in front of me?"
"Your sweetheart?" Ella folded her arms and sneered, "But the young lady doesn't seem to think so."
"It's just a quarrel between husband and wife. If you take it seriously, you'll lose." Xue Cheng smiled cunningly, then said seriously: "The young lady is already my marriage ship. If you want to recruit on behalf of the headquarters, I can't control others, but please don't involve her."
Ella fell silent. She subconsciously looked at her fingers and saw the Ring of Promise.
If the favorability is not high enough, even if the ship girl is somewhat attracted to the admiral, she will not accept the ring of oath. The same should be true for deep-sea ship girls. In this way, Xue Cheng's act of declaring sovereignty really has sufficient reasons.
However, since this was Xue Cheng's wedding ship, and he was also the person in charge of the Deep Sea Garrison, then the so-called Deep Sea Garrison was indeed supported by this guy, right? What kind of cooperation? It was clearly because he was worried that the Navy Headquarters would come to reap the benefits.
After figuring this out, Ella curled her lips and guessed a little about Xue Cheng's intention. She pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What is your purpose in acting in unison?"
"Well." Xue Cheng rubbed his palms together and looked at Ella with a hint of flattery on his face. "My wife has facilitated the first cooperation between humans and the deep sea. Can't the headquarters make some small gesture in return?"
"If you want support, just say so directly. No need to beat around the bush!" Ella glared at him angrily. "You're worried about headquarters taking your work, but you don't want to shoulder the expenses of the Deep Sea Guardhouse alone. If I'm not mistaken, if I refuse, will you use the excuse of not being able to maintain it as an excuse?"
"How is that possible..." Xue Cheng smiled awkwardly, "Am I that kind of person?"
"Yes," Ella said unceremoniously. "This isn't the first time we've dealt with each other. Don't I know what kind of person you are? A miser! Grandet! Even with mountains of resources piled high in the warehouse, you still send out the submarines with the lowest energy consumption. Only when the deep-sea flagship attacks do you show a bit of generosity. If you're not that kind of person, who is?"
Lexington smiled without saying a word, and even the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Hey, you guys! Can you please give me some respect? We're all on the same side, okay?
Xue Cheng was speechless. Is there anything wrong with being frugal? Money is often regretted when it's needed! If he hadn't been frugal, the first thing he'd worry about upon crossing over would have been a lack of resources, let alone the establishment of a deep-sea garrison.
"In that case." Xue Cheng didn't pretend to be a gentleman and asked directly, "What's Miss Ella's answer?"
Ella looked at Xue Cheng's indifferent expression and sighed, "You shouldn't be so cautious. If you can achieve something, headquarters will only increase their support for you. Why would they come here to pick the fruits and cause trouble?"
Xue Cheng was stunned: "I thought..."
"Don't take it for granted," Ella said helplessly. "The Deep Sea Garrison does sound promising, but since they approached you first instead of headquarters, it means they think you're the most suitable partner."
"A forced melon is not sweet, and forced cooperation is prone to hidden dangers. As for whether the deep-sea ship girls are under your control or under the control of the headquarters, what difference does it make? After all, our common goal is the deep-sea monsters. Unless you are so arrogant as to rely on the limited strength you have..."
Xue Cheng quickly shook his head. He didn't have such a boring idea.
"Hey! Don't talk nonsense!" He glared at her, "We are not anyone's vassal. If you think we will obey you, you are totally wrong!"
Ignoring her, Ella continued, "Don't worry. If you can win over the deep-sea shipgirls, it will benefit everyone. I will do my best to help you secure supplies and funds. Just focus on fighting the battle at hand."
Xue Cheng touched his nose awkwardly, realizing that he seemed a little too smart for his own good.
As expected, he's still an amateur. If something similar happens again, Lexington should handle it. As for himself? It seems that it would be better to be a salted fish that is spoiled by his wife.
Xue Cheng touched his nose and looked at the girl beside him for help.
"In that case, let's end this discussion of the Deep Sea Garrison here." Lexington, who had been silent the entire time, letting Xue Cheng do his thing, smiled faintly and intervened in time: "Does Ella have anything to say about this battle?"
"Yes." Ella said bluntly, not wanting to argue with Xue Cheng any further. "As I've emphasized before, the habits of deep-sea monsters are different from those of deep-sea shipgirls. So this time, the enemies we'll be facing may be weaker individually, but their numbers will be enormous."
"You have one night to prepare and select the appropriate shipgirls to go into battle. Tomorrow morning, the flagship of the Combined Fleet will pass by here and lead everyone to the front line to stop the invasion of the deep-sea monsters."
"Oh, right." Ella suddenly tapped her head and looked at Xue Cheng: "You have to go to the battle with us this time."
Seeing Xue Cheng's surprised look, Ella rolled her eyes. "Don't get me wrong, I'm not targeting you. The situation in this battle is unpredictable, and extreme situations are likely to occur. There are some orders that only admirals like you have the authority to issue. Therefore, all admirals must be present at the front lines in this battle."
Xue Cheng hesitated for a moment, then agreed: "Okay, no problem on my side."
……
In the cabin, Liu Yun stood in the corner, looking awkwardly at the admirals who were chatting in groups of three or four. Next to him was a timid little girl with short brown hair and a hat.
After these days, Liu Yun has become a new admiral, and because of his excellent performance during his time at the Naval Academy, he took over the garrison of a retired admiral.
Although it was just an empty shell with no one there, Liu Yun had been shipping a lot of warships during this period of time, and had gathered more than ten ship girls under his command, barely able to form two formations, which finally brought some life to the garrison.
As a new admiral, Liu Yun is definitely a top-notch European emperor. After hearing his story in private, countless classmates of the same period were envious with their eyes red. However, the proud Liu Yun did not get carried away by this.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
Ever since he tried to post a photo of a seemingly new admiral, but was accidentally posted back by the other party, Liu Yun suffered a great blow. He was in a state of frustration for a long time. After he finally recovered, he was left with a suspicious habit, and everyone he saw was like a European seal pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
Otherwise, according to Liu Yun's previous temper, he would have easily blended into everyone's circle, and then "inadvertently" revealed the ship girl he owned during the conversation.
"Hey, did you know? It turns out that the construction formula 594, 438, 666, 233 can be used to build Alfonso XIII."
"Really? This is a three-star battleship! Damn, I'm so envious, Brother Lin, your luck is still so good!"
"Haha, that's nothing. I'm far inferior to Brother Wang. I heard that Brother Wang met a woman while he was strolling around the job market some time ago. Guess what? That girl turned out to be a wandering ship girl without an admiral, the four-star light aircraft carrier Ranger!"
"Wow! It seems like Brother Wang is more capable. How far have you progressed? Is there any hope of retrieving her?"
"Don't listen to Xiaolin's nonsense. We're just friends, and besides, we're not interested in fighting. By the way, I heard you've had a few major constructions recently?"
"Don't mention it. We only produced one battlecruiser, the Seydlitz."
"Okay, An Ming, you're not being honest. You're pretending to envy us, but you're actually the luckiest one!"
"Hey, no way. Seydlitz is just a battlecruiser. How can it compare to Ringo's battleship?"
"Bullshit! That's a golden five-star ship girl, stop being so Versailles!"
Liu Yun coldly watched the three admirals showing off their boats to each other not far away, sneering in his heart.
You're a bunch of ignorant frogs in a well. Are you even going to show off Alfonso XIII and Seydlitz? If I bring Zuikaku and Colorado out, won't you be scared to death? But...
Liu Yun sighed secretly. Even Zuikaku and Colorado would not be able to compete with the super large seal he had seen, right?
Just as Liu Yun was feeling dejected, a surprised voice came from beside him: "Huh? You are...Liu Yun?"
Liu Yun raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice. A gentle young man wearing glasses and a pure white navy uniform was waving at him.
"Han Bo?" Liu Yun's eyes lit up. He walked over quickly, punched him gently on the chest affectionately, and said, "Hey kid, I heard you've also become an official admiral. How have you been lately?"
