Chapter 235
From Hood's words, Wei An roughly knew that the sea she was heading to must be the eastern sea.
Hood was about 13 hours earlier than her departure time.
Based on the speed of his shipmates, if they were faster, they should be able to find Hood and the others quickly.
After a night of sailing without rest, at 10 a.m. on the 15th, Lexington finally discovered some information
"Commander, we found a fleet. The flag belongs to the E Wing, but something seems wrong."
"Um? what happens?"
"It seems that a battle has already taken place, and most of the battleships bear traces of the aftermath of the war."
"How far are we from them?"
"90 nautical miles"
"Let sister, go ahead and check the situation, we will arrive later"
"receive."
You must know that even after the Vian Fleet sailed at super high speed for 20 hours and reached more than 700 nautical miles, it has not yet left the waters controlled by the joint warships. If a battle breaks out in the waters controlled by the joint warships, then it is a big problem. Even if the front line is in trouble, it will not be broken in less than a day, and it is still at least 900 nautical miles away from the sea boundary.
And is the navy's action really that fast?
But the answer is still in 3 hours. Got the answer.
After being attacked, the fleet was obviously much slower and was easily caught up by the Vian fleet.
When he heard that there were warships coming from behind, Hood's first reaction was that the traitors had not yet been dealt with.
But look. When she arrived at a very familiar battleship, she was relieved.
Then she was worried. She even said not to let Wei An come, but he still came, especially now that the situation was complicated. There is a mole in the alliance, and she has just cleaned up the mole in the E-Union Department.
"Hood, what happened?"
Vian talked to Hood through Lexington, and he was still 6 nautical miles away from Hood's fleet.
"Royal Oak and Orion were the Navy's infiltrated shipgirls. One-sixth of the shipmates in the E Wing betrayed them on the spot. Agincourt sank because it was the closest to them."
Hood's face was full of haggard and exhaustion.
"Are you OK"
"I'm just a broken guy, it's okay"
"Why don't you take a short break before going to the front line?"
"There is no time. A quarter of the ship girls in the I and E coalitions on the front line have been killed. If we delay a little longer, the losses on the front line will be even greater."
"The consequences of being attacked by the navy would be disastrous."
"But you now....."
Because the E-Union had stationed most of its warships at the academy, this was the main force of the E-Union.
Now, compared to the fleet that had just set out, it had shrunk by one third, and some of the warships were still emitting thick black smoke, and it was obvious that they were in bad condition.
"Even if we die, we have to keep the eastern navy out of our waters. Tomorrow we can reach the garrison in part of the central theater so that some ship girls can rest and recuperate. It will be okay."
"As for you, didn't I tell you not to come? Do you know how dangerous it is? Yesterday, more than 500 warships rebelled in our fleet, collided and exploded."
"I don’t know if there are any ship girls infiltrating other places. What if something happens to you?"
Hood said sadly to Wei An, the corners of his eyes were wet with sadness.
"Then I can't just watch you have an accident, and everyone in the E-Union Department"
"This is the duty and destiny of our ship girls. As long as we are not retired, we will be accompanied by battles all our lives. Sooner or later, the day of sinking will come. It’s just a matter of time."
"It doesn't matter if we sink. The important thing is that nothing happens to you. As long as you are still there, you can still have fires one by one."
Hood felt endless sadness in his heart when he thought of those naval girls who risked their lives. They should have a life of their own. They were abandoned as weapons, and they lived happily with everyone. , but because of the navy’s order, he became an enemy of everyone
"Bullshit! He is not an admiral if he cannot protect his own ship girl. Doesn't the academy teach admirals to make their ship girls happy?"
"Look at what you look like now, seeing yourself as a victim. Where has the confident flagship of the E-United Forces gone?"
"Although what happened today is not good for the current war situation, aren't you just timid before fighting?"
"Since the Navy has made a mistake, we must use our own strength to reverse and correct this mistake."
"Just like everyone has changed this imperfect alliance of ship girls"
"Even if there are remaining sparks, can you be sure that they are all the sparks of the KanColle Union? And not the sparks of the Navy?"
"You are the flagship of the E-Union. You should cheer up and work with other confederations to correct the mistakes of this world so that future shipgirls will no longer have to endure such pain."
"I..."
Hood was speechless in the face of Wei'an's preaching.
When Wei'an saw Hood, he immediately realized that her mental state was not right.
Rather than going to fight, it was more like going to die. The betrayal of her companions was a blow to her.
"If we don't fight and are defeated by the navy, where will there be room for us in this sea?"
"Do you want more ship girls to become victims of the navy's war?"
"In order to prevent more tragedies like this, we need to win the battle. As the admiral of the Ship Girl Alliance, I cannot escape."
"For my ship girl."
In the days when the ship girls lived together, although there was competition between the admirals and comparisons between the ship girls, it was still much better than the ugly human nature he had faced.
If Wei An were to define the black and white of this world, Human beings are kind, but the deep sea is evil.
Compared with the navy, the ship girls union at least has more goodness. The ship girls could not fight for the home of mankind, and they could be superior to humans. Humans are still given equal status, even a higher status than the ship girls.
Even now, when the survival of the ship girls union is at stake, they are only thinking about preserving the kind of life of the human admiral, but they are reduced to this. In order to prevent more shipgirls like his sister and Lexington from becoming victims, his dream is to live a carefree life with his shipgirl. He was once the child of a ship's mother.
It's hard to say whether he will be an admiral or a ship's mother in the future.
If the navy continues like this, sooner or later a victim will appear by his side.
Is there any use in regretting it?
The relationship between ship girls and humans must change.
