KanColle does not allow me to work from nine to five

However, Cleveland did not give Liu Cheng such an opportunity and continued to carry him forward until another group of people carried Yorktown and Liu Chenghui together. The two looked at each other.

He glanced at her, stretched out his hands, clasped them together, and raised them high to accept the cheers of the crowd.

"I think it through. No matter whether it is true or false, my feelings will never change. So my feelings are real, and everything is real."

York City's beautiful lake blue eyes were filled with touching affection. Under the light of the bonfire in the center, her pretty face was slightly flushed, a beauty that could not be concealed by the night.

"What? I can't hear you clearly?"

It was a bit noisy, and Liu Cheng couldn't hear clearly what Yorktown was saying because they were so close, so he moved closer to Yorktown, and Cleveland quickly supported him with his shoulders to maintain the overall balance.

Without repeating it again, Yorktown boldly kissed Liu Cheng's cheek in public, and her fair face suddenly became even redder.

Liu Cheng smiled and there was no need to ask any more questions. Everything was self-explanatory.

Seeing Yorktown's bold move, the White Eagle's ship girls cheered even more enthusiastically. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with the princess falling in love with the warrior who saved her?

The Prince of Wales looked at the two people being lifted up in the crowd and shook her head helplessly. She was no longer surprised. Who made the person she liked so charming?

Brest felt that he had endless inspiration again. It turned out that the hero would continue to create his own epic.

Kewei pouted, and she subconsciously looked at Neptune beside her. They both had the same idea for some reason -

No, we can’t go on like this, we have to speed up!

Chapter 93: Carnival Night

White Eagle is very enthusiastic.

Liu Cheng saw many ship girls in bikinis, holding champagne and spraying foam. The wine was on their fair or healthy wheat-colored skin, which made Liu Cheng have to try very hard to control his vision. Later, he gave up. After all, the scenery was like this everywhere, so he might as well just enjoy it.

In addition, Liu Cheng had another feeling. There were really a lot of White Eagle Ship Girls. Thinking that he would have to help these White Eagle Ship Girls transform their mind cubes one by one, Liu Cheng felt a headache. He had to start working from dawn to dusk again. It would be great if he could really unite all the Ship Girls by taking a bath.

Question Veneto, understand Veneto, be Veneto.

It has to be Sardinia, which is truly many years ahead of the others.

The White Eagle is also very free.

A huge bonfire was burning on the beach, and barefoot ship girls were running around everywhere on the beach. Even children were drinking alcoholic beverages without anyone paying any attention. Z23, who had decided not to drink again after knowing the truth, drank the fruit wine with his little face flushed. In such an atmosphere, everyone would fit in.

As for Liu Cheng, he is very busy.

He wore a wreath on his head, a necklace hung around his neck, and a kiss on his face... Oh, yes, this kiss was from Ron. This is a matter of principle, and can't be forgotten. Mainly because there were so many people, Ron restrained himself a lot after marriage, otherwise it should be a world of two people, not a carnival with many people.

Open champagne, clink glasses, shake hands and high-five...

This time, Liu Cheng thoroughly felt what it meant to be too popular. Most of the White Eagle's ship girls were very enthusiastic. Not only were they grateful to Liu Cheng for healing Yorktown, they were also very curious about this human male whom they had heard of for a long time. Everyone wanted to see what he looked like and wanted to shake his hand to see what it felt like.

"Well, this feeling... seems to be... probably..."

A petite girl with red twin ponytails squeezed her way to Liu Cheng. She held Liu Cheng's hand, blinking her blue eyes, as if she was thinking about how to describe her thoughts.

" alt='金克拉'>

Finally she gave up, stuck out her tongue cutely and said, "Hey, I don't know, it feels good anyway."

"Don't know? Let me teach you."

Seeing her silly look, Liu Cheng's habit of teasing little girls came back, "But you have to tell me your name first?"

"I'm Santiago, Atlanta-level Santiago! Can you really teach me? Sometimes I just don't know how to describe it, but how can you know what I'm thinking? Can you read my mind? Oh my god, that's amazing."

Santiago asked a series of questions like a machine gun, looking at Liu Cheng with his big eyes eagerly, which made Liu Cheng feel a little ashamed for a moment. The other person is stupid, and he continued to tease her. Wasn't it a bit too much?

"Of course I know. It's actually very simple."

Liu Cheng decided to tease her first. If he didn't tease her, wouldn't he feel ashamed for nothing?

"You hold my hand, yes, and then put it on your head. Does it feel warm?"

"Yeah." Santiago seemed to suddenly understand. "It's really warm."

"Then move around a little bit. Do you feel like you're going to sweat?"

"correct."

"This feeling is called, Oune's hands are good

Chinese."

"Oune's hand is a good man? Yes, Oune's hand is a good man!"

Santiago suddenly jumped up with joy, as if he had really mastered some incredible knowledge. He covered his head with his hands and went to show off to the other little girls.

Now Liu Cheng really felt guilty. Looking at her silly appearance, she was already not very smart. Would he affect the development of her IQ?

Of course, Liu Cheng's subsequent interactions with Santiago proved that this was not the case at all. How could someone who doesn't even use his brain have room for his IQ to drop?

Liu Cheng doesn't have much time to think about this kind of thing now. Many people came over with their glasses raised to toast him. At first, Liu Cheng accepted all of them. This commander drinks beer for Iron Blood and red wine for Royal. When it comes to drinking, when has he ever been afraid of anyone?

Later, Liu Cheng said that it was up to me if you did it, and if it didn't work, I could go find my temporary drinking table secretaries Chapayev and Kuibyshev. They were really professional. Anyway, the members of our fleet were one, and if they drank, I drank. There was no other way, I couldn't stand the rotation.

"I have said this many times, but please allow me to say it one last time. I will keep it in mind in the future."

Enterprise walked up to Liu Cheng with a glass of wine. She took off her military cap and coat and casually wore a jacket. Her long silver hair was scattered behind her head. She had a unique beauty among the coolly dressed White Eagle ship girls. "I'm sorry for what happened before. Thank you."

Thinking back to the time when she sat on Liu Cheng, Qiye did not regret the decision. If she had the chance again, she would still do the same. However, every time she thought about it, she always had a very strange feeling. This was an emotion she had never experienced before. She felt a little annoyed but also seemed very happy.

He would not talk about things he was not clear about, so Enterprise drank the whiskey in the glass and looked at Liu Cheng with bright eyes, waiting for his response.

"I accept your gratitude. I do need your help in the future. I won't talk about it now. We don't talk about business during a celebration." Liu Cheng took a sip of wine. He could no longer hide his drunkenness. "And the real thanks has actually been given to me personally by York City."

York City felt Liu Cheng's burning gaze, and his cheeks flushed charmingly. Even though he had made up his mind, he still felt a little shy in front of his sister and White Eagle's companions.

"I feel like you've changed a little bit, York City."

Essex stood behind Enterprise. This serious and cold purple-haired girl had a red face at this moment. She did not look as calm as before, but instead looked a little silly.

"Yes, yes?"

York City couldn't help but touch his face. Although he had been intimate with Liu Cheng many times in his mind, it should not have affected the reality. In the past, people often said that he had the temperament of a gentle wife. In fact, he just grew mature. Now his body is not yet, but his spirit is completely a real wife.

"Yes, if a senior from the company drank like this before, you would have lectured her a long time ago."

"Indeed... I used to hate drinking the most." York City looked at Liu Cheng's profile with her beautiful eyes, took a sip of wine happily and said, "But today is a happy time, so let's drink."

"Yes, today is a happy day!" Essex immediately hugged Liu Cheng's shoulders and handed the wine glass to his mouth, "Liu Cheng, this glass is for you! On behalf of the seniors of the company, on my behalf, and on behalf of everyone at White Eagle, I thank you for your help!"

Liu Cheng was also a little drunk, and he didn't think it was strange for this ship girl who seemed a bit aloof at first glance to do such a thing. He just waved his hand and said, "Why did you let me drink first when you toasted me?"

"That's right, do you have any more wine?... Never mind, I'll drink half first and you can drink the other half!"

"You are really smart."

"Hehe, I can't compare to my seniors in the enterprise."

Passionate rock music sounded on the beach. Liu Cheng and Enterprise were pulled to the bonfire by Essex. Yorktown was also held tightly by Liu Cheng. A group of people laughed and made noises around the bonfire, with flames shooting up into the sky.

Tonight is destined to be a night of drunkenness.

Chapter 94: Carrot and Stick for Sakura Empire

The meeting was scheduled for the afternoon of the next day. After all, after a night of partying, Liu Cheng was so hungover that he couldn't get up in the morning. He only remembered that he seemed to be knocked down by someone. Even the little maid was drunk that night. The perfect and elegant head maid failed to do her job for the first time, and it was up to Kuibyshev and Chapayev to carry Liu Cheng back to the room.

I can only say that when it comes to drinking, the Northern League is truly unrivaled.

Don't use your hobbies to challenge their genes, otherwise you will only bring shame upon yourself.

The White Eagle's conference room was quite spacious. Richelieu, Roman and Prince of Wales were sitting on Liu Cheng's side. The Unity had already passed the Panama Canal and would reach Hawaii in about a week to rendezvous.

Enterprise was sitting upright, behind her were Essex, Yorktown, New Jersey, Baltimore and Cleveland. St. Louis held her cheek lightly with a dazed look, not showing any seriousness of attending the meeting. Well, New Jersey didn't have any either, she was yawning.

Liu Cheng is no longer surprised by now. The White Eagle is truly free, but it is also truly reliable. It seems to do its own thing but it does not affect its efficiency much. It is fundamentally different from Sardinia.

"Let me first tell you my opinion. This is the conclusion I reached after discussing with everyone in the fleet. That is, under the current circumstances, the Azure Lane and the Red Axis will not change in the short term.

There will not be a direct conflict, but a cold war will continue for a period of time. The easiest and most likely breakthrough point for the two major forces is these two island countries. "

Liu Cheng pointed a laser pen at the world map on the wall and said, "Yes, the Royal Family and the Sakura Empire."

"Not only do these two major forces have a large number of ship girls, which are very important and could cause an avalanche-like change in the situation, but more importantly, they are all isolated overseas. It can be said that they are at the forefront of the confrontation between the two major forces. Although there are many ship girls, they are the easiest breakthrough point."

Enterprise folded her hands and supported her smooth chin. She was not good at things outside the battlefield, but that didn't mean she knew nothing. In fact, as the leader of the White Eagle, as long as she viewed the diplomatic and confrontational intrigues as a battle, Enterprise also possessed the political acumen of a powerful leader. It's just that most of the time, Enterprise's upright and sincere character made her unwilling to get involved in such disputes. But in this situation, no ship girl can stay out of it.

"So you chose Guam as the base for your fleet?" Enterprise felt that he had some idea of ​​Liu Cheng's thoughts. He definitely did not come here with just empty talk of peace.

"That's right." Liu Cheng nodded and continued to explain, "The strength of the Atlantic battlefield is unquestionable. After I modified their mind cubes, both Azur Lane and Crimson Axis are capable of dealing with the Sirens' current offensive. In comparison, the Pacific battlefield is much weaker. Both you and Sakura Empire have to guard against each other while dealing with the Sirens, and there are more things that may distract your attention. So I am stationed in the waters of Guam to supplement the combat power of the Pacific battlefield... Of course, I have other purposes."

Liu Cheng paused, propped his hands on the conference table and said, "Humans are not as powerful as shipgirls. They get hungry, sleepy, and bored, and can clearly feel the decline in their quality of life. So the decisions of shipgirls can affect the country, but they cannot kidnap citizens indefinitely. Whether it is the Royal Kingdom or the Sakura Empire, they are island countries that rely heavily on foreign trade. Under the hostile blockade, they will inevitably face shortages of supplies and rising prices."

"The Royal Family is in a slightly better situation, as they have a relatively smooth Atlantic shipping route. Even if the Eastern Empire's aid cannot go through the Suez Canal, it can still go around the Cape of Good Hope. If that doesn't work, it can be transported to the Royal Family via land transport through the Northern Alliance and then transferred to a ship. In addition, the Royal Family has a smaller population than the Sakura Empire, so the Royal Family has an advantage in this regard."

"The advantage of the Sakura Empire is that they are a semi-theocratic, semi-feudal, and semi-republican country, so the people's tolerance must be higher than that of the royal family, but it will not be infinitely high. The Sakura Empire's shipgirls, as the gods in the hearts of the people of the Sakura Empire, will definitely find a way to change the situation."

"So, surrounded on three sides, Sakura Empire has only two obvious ways to break the impasse. One is to intervene in Southeast Asia and Australia, which are within the Eastern Huang's sphere of influence. There are abundant supplies here, which can fully meet Sakura Empire's needs. The second is to directly take military risks, breaking the rule that the ship girls cannot interfere in national affairs, and forcing Eastern Huang to submit with the superior military strength of the ship girls. This is a very risky but permanent way to break the impasse. Given Sakura Empire's current situation and their personalities, they are entirely likely to go all out."

"My fleet is stationed in Guam, which completely cuts off the idea of ​​the Sakura Empire going south and west, and completely traps it in the Pacific Ocean. Without the support of external supplies, the Sakura Empire will collapse sooner or later. As long as the Sakura Empire turns to the Azur Lane, then reunion will no longer be an empty talk."

That's right, Liu Cheng never expected to rely on love and peace alone to influence people. He had to make the ship girls who supported division understand that this world has always been a world of unity and cooperation. No one can fight alone without each other. There may be all kinds of conflicts when they are together, but after division, not only will it fail to solve the problems, but it will also bring more difficult problems.

The most effective solution is to use both carrots and sticks, making them feel pain while giving them a way out.

"Sure, that's a very mature idea." New Jersey rocked his swivel chair, thought for a moment and said, "I can't think of any problems for now. I think this is a very likely solution."

Enterprise thought deeply for a while and felt that it was very feasible, especially since such a plan did not require a head-on conflict. She was not afraid of fighting, but was unwilling to fight over such things.

"I think that makes sense too. What do you think, Essex? Um, Essex?"

"Ah? Ah, yes, Enterprise-senpai."

Essex was a little absent-minded just now, especially when her eyes were focused on Liu Cheng. She vaguely remembered that she seemed to have done many outrageous things after drinking last night. It seemed that she was dancing with Liu Cheng in her arms, and finally she even pressed on him, without any resistance and hugged him tightly. Could it be that she thought he was a senior in the company? It was really bad. When she was happy, she forgot that she had a bad alcohol tolerance. I wonder if Liu Cheng still remembers this matter. Will I embarrass the senior in the company?

After being named by the company, Essex quickly returned to her usual cold and serious appearance. She nodded and said, "We have discussed this matter internally many times, and the conclusion we reached in the end is always difficult to resolve peacefully. In the end, there may be a direct conflict. The method you proposed is a good method, so what do you want us to cooperate with you in doing?"

Liu Cheng was not polite either, he stretched out two fingers and said: "I want you to cooperate with me to do two things. First, try to avoid direct conflict with the Sakura Empire. If you encounter provocation from the Sakura Empire, it will be a sign that they are strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

I hope you don’t mind.”

"No problem." Enterprise agreed immediately, "White Eagle's guns should be aimed at the Siren, not the Ship Girl."

"Second, I hope you can get the White Eagle government to cooperate and completely block trade between White Eagle and Sakura Empire. Although White Eagle announced sanctions against Sakura Empire before, there are still many merchant groups trading with Sakura Empire."

Enterprise glanced at St. Louis, who understood, shook his head and said, "This is a bit difficult."

Chapter 95: Holding a stick, but this commander is the carrot

St. Louise blinked at Liu Cheng, her blue hair tied to one side and falling on her chest. She explained, "The situation of the White Eagle is somewhat special. In a wartime situation that is not a full mobilization, the government has no right to require all private enterprises to comply with government sanctions. In fact, these business trusts also have a say in the government through lobbying the parliament and other means. They think that they are just different alliances. As long as they are not doing business with Siren, there is no problem."

Richelieu smiled disdainfully and said, "If the profit is enough, I'm afraid they won't think it's a problem even if we do business with the Sirens, right?"

Richelieu was a cardinal and a shipgirl from the old revolutionary district of Iris. Of course, he hated greed, one of the seven deadly sins. As for his and his sister's lover Liu Cheng? That was not greed, that was spreading the light of the Lord to the world, which was recognized by everyone from the bishop to the nuns and the Knights Templar.

"That's true. The expansion of capital is endless." St. Louis snapped his fingers and said, "Of course there are solutions. We can influence the White Eagle government and label this as treason. This will dissuade some companies from doing business. Then we can use this as an excuse to announce that we will not provide escort for this route. The high risk can dissuade some companies from doing business. Add in some other influences, and even if there are still some people who continue to commit crimes, the impact should not be significant."

"Good plan."

Liu Cheng gave St. Louis a thumbs up. She was indeed a rich woman and was well versed in the nature of capital. Even if some companies took huge risks to gain excess profits, the trade volume they could provide could not influence the situation.

"It's just a trivial matter."

St. Louis glanced at Liu Cheng coquettishly, and she snapped her fingers again, but the sound was not too loud. Instead, it was as if she was making a heart shape with her hands. Although she said it was a small thing, her eyes showed that she was looking forward to Liu Cheng's reward.

Faced with St. Louis's unscrupulous little actions, Liu Cheng of course kept a straight face and pretended not to see it for the time being. Seeing Liu Cheng's hypocritical look, St. Louis found it amusing instead and laughed silently with his hands covering his lips.

"But I think this will be a problem, right?"

Baltimore raised an objection. She was a handsome and chic woman with short brown hair. She had a slim and fit figure. A cool shirt jacket wrapped around her bulging and firm body, especially her flat belly underneath. She also had beautiful but not exaggerated muscles and vest lines, which were quite eye-catching.

" alt='Baltimore'>

Corresponding to her refreshing and handsome appearance is a pure sense of justice. She frowned slightly and said with some concern: "If the foreign trade of Sakura Empire is completely cut off, will there be a humanitarian disaster there? This is a decision made by the government under the coercion of the ship girls. The civilians are innocent."

"Don't worry about that. Of course, it's impossible to completely cut off Sakura's foreign trade, especially bulk commodities like food. I just want to control Sakura's external lifeline."

Liu Cheng nodded to Baltimore. It was really impressive that he could think of this and care about the safety of ordinary people. He explained, "The construction of the Guam port area is open, and my plan is also an open conspiracy. In fact, both sides know it well. The competition is about who can hold on longer and who can break the deadlock. Because the battle between Azur Lane and Red Axis is more of a battle of ideas, and the battle is about whose ideas are more correct. Even Red Axis is not completely pursuing division, but hopes to put all the ship girls under their rules. They think this is a more efficient concept to fight against the Sirens. In a sense, everyone is fighting a gentleman's battle."

"So just like we are giving blood transfusions to the Royal Navy, the Red Axis is also giving blood transfusions to Sakura Empire. In fact, Iron Blood has previously sent a fleet to the vicinity of the Strait of Malacca to ensure the safety of the route from the Indian Ocean to Sakura Empire."

Cleveland's eyes widened: "You know all this?"

Liu Cheng smiled and said, "Of course I have my own intelligence channels." (Clemenceau: Hello~)

In fact, Iron Blood did not keep the matter secret, and the fleet it sent out was very small, with only three ship girls: Prinz Eugen, Zeppelin and Elbing.

Frederick the Great's intentions were also very clear. Since it was an open conspiracy, she only needed to make a gesture. The Iron Blood Society would concentrate on breaking through the Royal Family, while Liu Cheng would rely on Prince Eugen and others to use their emotions to get through the back door. It would depend on whether the Royal Family could not hold on and compromise first, or whether the Sakura Empire would be accepted by Liu Cheng first.

"I hope that Sakura Empire will only maintain one transportation lifeline. I will not block bulk cargo such as food and coal, but oil, rubber,
