It is Kokang and Changchun

　"You can interpret it that way, but we're not bad people." Admiralty Code is about to start a pyramid scheme: "We're here to liberate America and help you."

　"? Liberate and help America?" Guam was even more confused, considering the era in which Guam lived. It was the early to mid-term of the Cold War, when the United States was at its peak.

　Days of age.

　Since America was at its peak, how could there be any talk of liberation and assistance? This was what puzzled Guam. She could only think of one possibility and quickly asked, "Could it be that World War III had broken out? Could it be that the Soviet Union had attacked?"

　Admiralty Code tried to reassure her, explaining, "No, no, no, it's been nearly 60 years since you were disassembled. The world has changed tremendously during this time. Let me explain it to you in detail..."

　Since Guam isn't a Azure-class ship spirit, and its subsystems are essentially at the early Cold War stage, Admiralty Code can only explain its history to Guam through intuitive methods. Otherwise, direct data transfer and reading between the two would have been accomplished in seconds.

　Half an hour later, Guam felt the history of the Admiralty Code was magical. The Soviet Union had collapsed, and Guam was happy. But the Soviet Union had returned, and she felt a little worried.

　What she finds most magical is the history of the United States from the post-Cold War period to the present day. The changes in the United States during this period, as well as its current state, are beyond her comprehension.

　The party strife in the United States over the past seven or eight years, coupled with the US's various confusing actions during the pandemic, is enough to make Guam's pupils tremble. Guam remained silent for a long time as she read the historical and current affairs illustrated materials AC gave her.

　In short, the America in the information is not only far from the America in her mind, but also completely different.

　Admiralty Code said: "The information I showed you is all true, and its source is the work of human historians. What we did was simply to sort it out.

　If you still don't believe it, you can go to the street and ask any normal person, just ask them, what do they think is better, the America before or the America after liberation? I can't give a direct answer of 100%, but it is definitely the majority, and a clear majority.

　Admiralty Code certainly didn't deceive Guam. The information she had was completely tampered with, as the incriminating material didn't need to be tampered with. However, her true purpose in misleading Guam is difficult to assess.

　In the following days, Admiralty Code had other deep-sea pioneers take Guam out for a tour, looking at the streets and alleys of the city, and occasionally asking passers-by about the past and present situation.

　A week later, after careful consideration, Guam contacted Admiralty Code. She got straight to the point: "Ms. Admiralty Code, I've been to many places these days and asked many people about their experiences in the United States. You really didn't lie to me."

　"Hahaha..." Admiralty Code laughed and said, "I told you I wasn't lying. It's good to be a little vigilant."

　"What about my sister? What about my former comrades? Are there other ships in this world with human bodies like me?" Guam suddenly thought of this.

　Admiralty Code replied, "Some American ships, like you, have become ship spirits. Unfortunately, they are on the opposite side of justice. They are aiding the already corrupt federal government in waging a misguided war."

　When the false is true, the true becomes false; when the true is false, the false becomes true; this combination of falsehood and reality is the most deadly. Admiralty Code perfectly captures Guam's psychological weaknesses, and Guam has little doubt about Admiralty Code's claims.

　"It would be great if we could contact them. I hope the other comrades can repent." Guam felt a little sorry.

　Guam had tried to contact other comrades before, but now Norfolk and the surrounding areas are the main battlefield on the southern front. The electromagnetic environment is very complex and the communication interference in the deep sea is very strong.

　In addition, the American ships usually fight and rest near Norfolk, and the ships in the dock cannot receive communications because of the power outage required for maintenance.

　As for the internet, AC had previously promised to upgrade Guam. The deep-sea spiritual network is far more advanced than the modern human internet. Guam had been looking forward to it, so it hadn't registered any social media accounts in almost a week.

　So until now, due to various reasons, the existence of Guam has resulted in no outsider except the deep sea knowing that KanColle Guam has appeared.

　"You called me here to ask about the transformation, right?" Admiralty Code saw at a glance the real purpose of Guam's visit to her.

　Guam nodded. "Yes, I spoke with Miss Canberra yesterday (the ship that AC salvaged when they attacked Australia, and later converted to deep-sea technology, which was not mentioned in the previous chapter). She tried her best to explain the benefits of the conversion to me, and I also witnessed her combat effectiveness on the training ground."

　"Yes, no one would refuse to improve their combat effectiveness. Miss Guam took the initiative to come to me, which shows that you are still very motivated." Admiralty Code looked at Guam with a satisfied smile. She knew that her plan to take over Guam was about to succeed.

　As long as it becomes deep-sea, it means that its thinking is stamped with the idea of ​​loyalty to the Admiralty Code, and Guam will completely become a loyal dog of the deep sea.

　Admiralty Code pulled Guam into the closed dock, the same dock where Guam was built, and asked Guam to release the ship. After Guam did so, a blue light flashed and the next battlecruiser appeared in the dock.

　in.

　"Well, now is the time to begin."

　With that, AC began her operation.

　An hour later, the special-effect light emanating from the enclosed dock finally dissipated. Guam, looking up at the sky, seemed a completely different person. Her features had become sharp and fierce, and she raised her arms and shouted, "Long live the Admiralty Code!"

　The appearance of the Guam humanoid has not changed much, but the overall temperament has become a little darker, and the appearance of the hull has also become the style of the blue steel fog ship. However, under the order of AC, she switched back to the original simple style.

　"This feeling... is just different!" Guam slowly lowered his arms and stretched out his palms, feeling the power of deep sea transformation.

　This scene is like Spider-Man who has just been possessed by Venom, looking at himself narcissistically, feeling his unprecedented power and strength.

　"Hey, Lord Admiralty Code, when can I go to the battlefield?!" Guam said impatiently, so much so that she didn't notice that the way she addressed AC had changed from "Miss AC" to "Lord AC".

　"Wait a few days, and once you've gotten familiar with your new powers, I'll send you out to clean up those guys who are still working for the corrupt government," said Admiralty Code.

　"For the Admiralty Code! For the new America!" Guam cheered again.

　AC breathed a sigh of relief. She felt relieved that Guam was about to be put into the battlefield. The tense Norfolk Campaign would finally see some significant changes.

　You know, in order to defend Norfolk and the surrounding areas, the United States invested more than 300,000 troops at all costs in the front and rear, which can be said to be a huge investment.

　The best way to break the deadlock now is to completely seize control of the sea in the central part of the east coast, and then open up a new landing site to launch a huge pincer attack on Norfolk.

　Although it lost its main ship-mounted armored capability after deep-sea deployment, Guam, as a battlecruiser equipped with anti-aircraft missiles, is well-suited to battles with high air defense requirements, such as naval battles on the east coast of the United States.

　The addition of Guam can significantly weaken the efficiency of the US Navy and Air Force's anti-sea attacks, and help seize sea control.

　In addition, regional air defense missiles can also carry out sea attacks when necessary. The amount of explosives in such large air defense missiles (generally dozens to dozens of kilograms) is enough to make today's thin-skinned and large-bodied modern ships and lightly armored warships have a hard time.

　What's more, it is a missile with deep-sea capability.

　Chapter 379 Guam, but in the deep sea (3)

　Norfolk Front, United States of America

　Deep Sea and US forces are engaged in a fierce exchange of fire in downtown Norfolk.

　Generally speaking, the US military is reluctant to engage in urban combat with the deep-sea forces, but after it began to gradually deploy combat robots and exoskeletons on a large scale, the US military's willingness to engage in urban combat with the deep-sea forces has increased.

　Of course, it's mostly due to the strategic importance of some towns, forcing the Americans to engage in urban and deep-sea warfare, even though everyone knows that engaging in street fighting will result in jail time. The introduction of exoskeletons and combat robots has, at best, alleviated some of the pain of jail time.

　After all, the current exoskeletons and combat robots cannot achieve that very sci-fi style. Current combat robots are far from being able to cooperate with humans, and the appearance of individual exoskeletons has not changed the impression of many people on the appearance of modern military soldiers.

　Just as a certain deep-sea creature mocked the American soldiers in the Battle of Yorktown, these things were just like a group of chickens transformed into geese, and they still couldn't compete with adult humans.

　Even so, the US military continues to fight the deep sea.

　"Damn it! This line is dead! It must have been touched by the deep sea who infiltrated the rear!" A frontline officer who was on the phone cursed angrily.

　"Sir, do we still need to retreat?" asked an adjutant nearby.

　The officer thought for a moment and said, "If we don't retreat now, we won't be able to do so! Although I can't contact the higher-ups, they will understand my decision in the end!"

　At the officer's command, all his troops evacuated in a hurry, leaving behind a slightly messy and disordered field of shoe prints and wheel tracks.

　Conversations and scenes like these were often repeated on the front lines.

　The US military top brass discovered through battle reports transmitted from the grassroots level, as well as other battlefield situation awareness and intelligence means, that the opposite side had an Alaska-class battlecruiser, which was the reason for the increase in their own naval and naval aviation losses in recent days.

　The US Navy is furious. This deep-sea bullying is simply too much. How can you tolerate stealing your wife's ship? Beat the bastard!

　More importantly, in addition to this Alaska-class ship, there is another more frightening piece of reliable news - the Yamato and Musashi have been repaired, and some upgrades and modifications have also been made.

　The Navy did not dare to be negligent and immediately reported the matter to the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Ministry of National Defense. The leaders of the Navy, Army and Air Force then discussed it in detail.

　A few hours later, Enterprise, which was about 15 kilometers south of the Chesapeake (about 25 kilometers from the Norfolk front), responsible for intercepting deep-sea fighters and providing air support for its own side, received a communication from the Naval Staff.

　"Hello, this is the CVN-80 Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier Enterprise..." Enterprise, which remotely controls its own carrier-based aircraft, responded to the voice as usual.

　"Miss Enterprise, it's me,

　"Raithwaite." When the old leader's voice sounded on the other end of the line, Enterprise immediately became serious. "Hello, Commander!"

　Braithwaite then told Enterprise what the Joint Chiefs of Staff had just discussed, as well as a rough outline of the relevant intelligence. Enterprise listened carefully to every word in the communication.

　After the call was disconnected, Enterprise's face became even more solemn. She piloted the squadron's F/A-18 fighter jets, launched all the rockets, and returned to base. Then, she used the public channel between the ship girls to call all the other ship girls.

　Enterprise: "Sisters, are you there?"

　"Everyone is here, what happened to the company?"

　"After we return from this battle, let's take some time to have a small online meeting. I just received some news from the commander."

　Bumblebee still couldn't change his straightforward habit and asked, "Sister Enterprise, what's wrong? Why can't you tell me now?"

　"So that you can concentrate on fighting!" Enterprise admonished Bumblebee with a hint of silence.

　……

　After the battle, a group of American ship girls found a time that was most compatible and held an online meeting in different bases.

　"What's wrong, Sister Enterprise? Are you in any trouble over there? Or have you discovered anything?" Bumblebee asked casually.

　Mrs. Yorktown was still as gentle as ever: "Enterprise~Is it about the battle situation? Or is it an order from the superiors?"

　The other ship girls also asked about the situation.

　"The Navy General Staff just called and confirmed that a Guam battlecruiser appeared in the deep sea. The Navy's last defeat was closely related to this ship." Enterprise truthfully explained what he had learned from the Navy Department.

　"USS Guam? Ours?" Since the Arizona sank early, they were not very familiar with the battlecruisers of the late World War II.

　Enterprise nodded and said, "Yes, it has been confirmed to be the second ship of the Alaska-class cruiser, the USS Guam."

　Saratoga's face was unusually serious. "Um... Sara, I want to confirm where this Guam in the deep sea came from. Is there a shipgirl aboard this Guam?"

　Enterprise said, "I've been thinking about this as well. Based on what the commander and I have said, the Joint Chiefs of Staff speculated that the USS Guam was likely built after Deep Sea took over the Brooklyn Shipyard. At the time, there was intelligence that Deep Sea had covered some of the docks.

　As for whether there are any shipgirls, it's still unclear. Given the historical and current situation, the commander and I believe there's a high probability that there are. However, I tried calling Guam using all frequencies, but there was no response.

　"What? A Guam was built in less than a year? The speed of deep-sea shipbuilding is even faster than when we produced dumplings?" Missouri was shocked.

　"..." Lexington (Jiao Tai) hesitated to speak.

　"The deep sea's advanced technology... no one can say for sure." Lexington (CV-2) frowned, a little uneasy. "If all of the above speculations are correct, then this undoubtedly sends a serious signal. The deep sea is trying to steal our ships, our comrades and sisters."

　New Jersey's forehead was already sweating as he made a guess: "Similarly, if the superior's deductions are all correct, it means that the Deep Sea may have the ability to brainwash normal shipgirls, or even what the game fan fiction calls 'Deep Seaization'."

　"But all this is based on the assumption that the higher-level inferences are true. Aren't we on a slippery slope?" Bumblebee still held on to a bit of hope.

　Enterprise refuted Hornet's perception: "It's better to be safe than sorry. As I said earlier, the USS Guam is already in the deep sea, and the previous reuse of the Brooklyn Shipyard and the sheltered transformation of the dock are indeed quite high. We must be careful."

　Wisconsin mocked the government, "Oh, if it's true, it would be funny. The federal government will surely regret it. Who made them listen to those congressmen and officials who supported building the line and fortresses?

　If something goes wrong, and the deep sea drives our former comrades and sisters to kill each other, I want to see where Kamala will cry."

　"It's just like the saying goes that a blessing in disguise. After suffering such a great loss, the country will definitely stop building fortresses and divert the money to invest in naval construction. We can finally stop working so hard." Iowa sighed.

　Lexington (CV-2) reminded everyone, "Okay everyone, now the commander has told Enterprise, and Enterprise has told us, which shows that the higher-ups want us to be prepared, both psychologically and programmatically. We should discuss this now and come up with a plan."

　Enterprise suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, I almost forgot some bad news."

　"What?" Everyone asked in unison.

　"The commander also said that according to reliable intelligence, the Deep Sea Yamato and Deep Sea Musashi have been repaired and are now likely to have returned to the deep sea combat sequence." Enterprise added.

　"What the fuck!" Upon hearing Enterprise's news, all the shipgirls in the channel erupted in anger. After all, enemies often cross paths. American shipgirls, especially those from World War II, had suffered greatly from these two.

　If the East Pacific was far away from the mainland last time, and the two nuclear bombs drove away Fukayama and Fukasashi, perhaps half of them would be missing today. This time, the return of Fukayama and Fukasashi made everyone's heart rise.

　It got stuck in my throat.

　Although the American ship girls don't know whether they will be wrecked in the sea or seriously injured and killed by concentrated fire on land in the future, they at least know that there will definitely be big moves in the deep sea in the near future.

　Chapter 380 Guam, but in the deep sea (4)

　While the American shipgirls were discussing the Deep Sea Guam, American officials and congressmen were also discussing it. Now it can be roughly inferred that this Guam was most likely built by the Deep Sea itself.

　As for whether there were any shipgirls on the Deep Sea Island, the officials and council members only discussed it for a short while and did not come to a conclusion. Compared to this, they were more concerned about whether the strategic plan needed to be adjusted in the face of this situation.

　The concrete manifestation of the adjustment dispute was the struggle between the shipbuilding faction and the fortification faction within the US government. At this moment, the temporary Congress at Cheyenne Mountain was once again arguing fiercely.

　Housing and Urban Development Secretary Marcia Fauci countered, "I understand Congress wants to increase investment in shipbuilding, but isn't it too much to say you're going to cut off our funding? Defense lines are being built on a massive scale across the country. If this funding chain is cut off, what will become of the millions of construction workers?"

　Not only have they built a bunch of useless, unfinished projects that won't stop the deep sea, but they've also created serious employment problems, leading to a whole series of social problems. I hope some individuals will carefully consider their naive views before offering their opinions.

　That's what she said, and it makes sense, but anyone with a bit of political acumen knows what Marcia Fauci is really thinking. It's easy to allocate money, but it's hard to take it back midway.

　After all, the government can only receive funding if Congress appropriates it. If Congress doesn't approve, how will the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development receive it? If the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development doesn't receive it, how will the construction companies affiliated with it receive it? If neither you nor I contribute, how can we all progress?

　Therefore, even if it is not for the millions of dollars in construction costs, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development will definitely not let the duck that is already in its mouth fly away just for the pockets of government bureaucrats and related capitalists.

　The shipbuilding faction is not as unified as the fortification faction, although their fundamental goal is to add wine and lights to resume the party, which means investing large amounts of money in the domestic shipbuilding industry to revive the glory of America's shipbuilding productivity during World War II and the Cold War.

　However, there was a heated debate over whether to prioritize building standard ships or large-scale shipbuilding. Furthermore, some advocated outsourcing to China. This lack of unity put the shipbuilding faction at a disadvantage against the fortification faction.

　Now that the Shenhai Pass Island incident has happened, the shipbuilding faction feels that the fortification faction will definitely be embarrassed, but they really underestimated the fortification faction's determination to hold on to the funding they have already received.

　A few months ago, the US had set aside some funds for emergencies. However, the progress of deep-sea warfare on land forced the government to use all of this money to mass-produce exoskeletons and combat robots for the Army, as well as to replace the M5 6.8mm rifle. (Ma Run: I don't get any, right?)

　"So... why not raise interest rates and print money? Isn't that what we have always done in the past?" asked a shipbuilding official.

　A member of parliament said angrily, "The past was the past, and the present is the present! Ever since this deep sea entered our home, every foreign country has been defying us! Except for Britain!"

　In this scenario, our ability to export and share economic risks is significantly weakened. If we continue to raise interest rates and print money, who will bear the consequences? Have you ever thought about this?!
