Chapter 1: Europe, Commander is back

On April 2046, 4 in the new calendar, the Red Axis Alliance, led by Iron Blood, Sakura Empire, Sardinia, and Iris, was announced to be established as a new pan-national military alliance. Its main purpose was to adapt to the needs of fighting against the Sirens in the new era. In fact, it fell into a new era cold war with the Azur Lane led by the Royal, Eastern, and White Eagle countries.

In the same month, the first human-led Azur Lane special fleet in history was established. The fleet leader Liu Cheng was awarded the rank of Admiral of the Donghuang Navy and the rank of Special Admiral of Azur Lane. In June of the same year, the Azur Lane fleet moved into the Guam base. Its members included ship girls from all eight major forces, opening a new chapter in the history of Azur Lane.

In August of the same year, the Azur Lane intelligence agency discovered unusual movements in the mirror-like sea between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, and judged that the long-silent Sirens might resume large-scale activities. This information was passed on to various countries, but did not attract full attention.

In September of the same year, four years after the Sirens stopped launching large-scale attacks, a large number of Sirens activities appeared in both oceans at the same time. All commercial transportation and fishing in the Pacific and mid-Atlantic waters were interrupted, and the human residents on all small islands were evacuated urgently. Air defense alarms frequently sounded in coastal cities. After enjoying four years of short peace, humans once again recalled the fear of being almost exterminated by the Sirens.

Perhaps only shared suffering can arouse common hatred against a common enemy.

With Liu Cheng's mediation, Donghuang lifted all sanctions on Sakura Empire in the fields of economy, culture, food, energy, daily chemicals, etc. At the same time, Sakura Empire opened its airspace over Honshu, Kyushu, and Shikoku, opened Yokosuka military port to Donghuang, formed a joint fleet, and completed the first integration of the entire Asian power.

At the same time, in order to respond to the Siren's offensive, better protect human civilization, life, and property from loss.

, led by Donghuang and White Eagle, and joined by Sakura Empire and Northern Alliance, they temporarily put aside the ideological conflicts between Azur Lane and Red Axis and established a joint operations command.

The headquarters is located in Guam, with Yanagi Tamaki, special admiral of Azur Lane, admiral of the East Glory Navy, honorary five-star admiral of the White Eagle, and protector of the Sakura Empire, as the commander-in-chief, Richelieu as deputy commander-in-chief, and Musashi, Enterprise, and Yisen as staff officers, and they are fully responsible for the defense operations in the Pacific Ocean.

The Atlantic battlefield was far less united than the Pacific battlefield. The reason for the establishment of the Red Axis was dissatisfaction with Azur Lane's passivity and procrastination in the fight against the Sirens. Now they naturally have to prove that their organizational form is more efficient and powerful in fighting against the Sirens, otherwise the entire alliance will lose the foundation for its existence.

Human politics is profit-oriented and shameless, but the political ecology among the ship girls is quite classical. In a sense, the Siren's attack did not force the ship girls of the European branch to unite, but instead they fell into a situation of fighting each other.

An unprecedented situation has once again swept the entire civilization. All conflicts and confrontations, cooperation and disputes are all cast an unpredictable shadow by the Siren's actions. Where will the future of mankind and ship girls go?

Only this time, because of Liu Cheng's appearance, humans are no longer just bystanders.

-------------------------------------

The cold wind rolled up the dark remnant clouds, with faint flashes of lightning in them, as if a terrifying force was brewing inside. England in October was just like its capital's reputation as the Fog City. Even without the shadow of war, it seemed a little gloomy. What's more, it was now under wartime control and the air raid sirens might sound at any time, making it seem even colder.

The human army cannot participate in the war between the Ship Girls and the Sirens, so all countries basically adopt a similar strategy, with the Ship Girls pushing the front line forward, and the human army is responsible for vigilance, logistics, defense and patrolling slightly behind the front line. Nuclear weapons are difficult to destroy the powerful Siren high-level arbitrators, but regional air defense weapons can still defend against scattered Siren carrier-based aircraft that break in.

After all, the number of ship girls is limited, and the traditional navy still has some uses.

Of course, it is impossible for all the ship girls to go to the front line. At least a part of the troops must be left behind as mobile forces, otherwise it will be difficult to cope with the current complex situation. No one knows whether the Sirens will have any new technology to avoid current reconnaissance methods.

Therefore, the Royal Port area, where only a few mobile personnel were present, became extremely empty and quiet.

Accompanied by Sheffield, Hood stood beside the runway in the Royal Port area, gathering her brilliant golden hair that was blown by the sea breeze, her lips as red as a dot, her eyes as dark as distant mountains, and her slim white gauze dress perfectly set off her perfect nine-head figure like a gourd.

As the glory of the Royal Navy, Hood is an indispensable main force of the fleet, so she is certainly not a reserve force left behind.

She rushed back from the front line this time, and did not forget to take a bath, change into beautiful clothes, and dress up a little to show her best side. Of course, this was to wait for someone, someone who could change the current situation, her sweetheart.

"Hood, according to the time, they are already more than two hours late. Please go to the room to the side and wait."

Sheffield covered the maid's skirt with his hands. This petite maid had pretty short silver hair and a small round face, which should have been very cute. However, her icy expression and calm golden eyes made Sheffield look very cold.

In fact, Sheffield rarely targets anyone intentionally, and as a maid she is a good person who almost always responds to requests. However, it is precisely because of her cold and silent appearance that the ship girls who are not familiar with her find her aloof and difficult to approach.

"It's okay. Under the current circumstances, we can never be too careful. It's normal to be late for a while. I'll just wait here."

Hu De's blue eyes were staring at the clouds all the time. Her heart had already flown to her lover who was about to arrive. She wished she could see her lover at the first moment and walk up to hug her lover whom she had been separated from for a long time. The little bit of waiting at this moment was just a prelude to happiness.

"Yes, as you wish."

Sheffield covered her skirt. She was actually paying attention to the movements in the sky. However, she couldn't help thinking that she... made Hood wait like this, she was really a pest.

Finally, more than ten minutes later, a Donghuang tilt-rotor aircraft tore through the thick sea of ​​clouds and appeared from the horizon, landing steadily on the runway in the Royal Port area.

Hood held her chest, her heart beating violently, her lips slightly dry. Although she already knew the final result, she still nervously watched the landing gear being lowered, and watched the familiar figure appear at the door of the cabin.

That firm short hair, the upright figure, the slightly baby fat on the sunny and handsome face, who else could it be but his lover Liu Cheng?

Chapter 2 I wish you a happy wedding

There is still much to be done in the Pacific theater.

She only passed two of the five trials of the Sakura Empire, which still did not allow Musashi to marry her legitimately, and her relationship with Hiei and Agatsuma was still ambiguous.

The Essex ring has not been given yet, and the progress of the Bremerton and Baltimore sisters has also come to a standstill. The White Eagle bar in the harbor area is not open, so naturally the Denver bunny girl cannot be seen.

With Yixian

I had just enough time to enjoy a moment of peace in the midst of my busy schedule. I hadn't had a good drink with Binjiang yet. I had only helped Yingrui, Zhaohe, Haitian, Haiqi, Ninghai, Pinghai, Changchun and Taiyuan, whom I had just met, to renovate them and have a reunion dinner with Donghuang.

However, even though there were so many things left undone, Liu Cheng had to leave the Pacific battlefield and go to the European theater.

Because the situation in the Pacific battlefield was much better than that in the Atlantic battlefield.

Under Liu Cheng's influence, the White Eagles, the Sakura Empire, the Eastern Empire, the Northern Alliance, and Richelieu of the Special Fleet were generally able to work in solidarity. The frequency of the Sirens' deployment this time was the highest in history, but their strength in the Pacific battlefield was the strongest in history. According to the Prince of Wales, she even felt a little too relaxed.

In terms of strength alone, the Atlantic battlefield is not much inferior to the Pacific battlefield, and it has also undergone Liu Cheng's transformation. It's just that the effect of fighting alone is that one plus one is far less than two.

Therefore, after making sure that the situation in the Pacific battlefield was stable, Liu Cheng rushed over without stopping. He could not disperse too much strength back to Europe, because the mirror-like waters of the two oceans were likely to be connected spaces. If too many ship girls supported Europe, the Sirens might notice it and increase their offensive against the Pacific, and he would be led by the nose by the Sirens.

Therefore, Liu Cheng appointed Richelieu as deputy commander-in-chief to take charge of the overall situation, with Musashi, Enterprise, and Yisen as his assistants, while he traveled light and brought only a few people back to the European battlefield.

Liu Cheng was confident that even if he was alone, he could be worth thousands of troops and be able to change the situation in Europe.

After half a year, Liu Cheng returned to the royal port area again. After experiencing many things, he felt as if he was in another world. He had expected that when he returned to Europe, he should have completely conquered Sakura Empire and completed the integration of the Pacific battlefield. But now, he is still a little short of it. It is really unpredictable.

However, there are some beautiful scenery that people will always miss at any time.

Just like the beautiful figure on the side of the airport runway, Hood was trotting over with her lady's hat in one hand and her skirt in the other, her beautiful blue eyes filled with deep affection that could not be dissolved.

In the past six months, every time I picked up my phone to watch the various videos and photos of a loving family in the group, I couldn't help but smile, and then the smile unconsciously turned bitter. I used work, books, and many other methods to divert my attention, but when it was late at night, I couldn't help but think of the fulfillment and warmth given by my lover. If it weren't for my rationality, I couldn't live a day without seeing Liu Cheng.

Now that they were finally able to meet again, Hood looked at Liu Cheng who was also jogging down the gangway. He couldn't utter a word of longing for him. He just stretched out his hands, wanting to get the hug he had been thinking about day and night.

Liu Cheng hugged Hood's slender waist and lifted her up high, then spun around several times on the spot amid the happy laughter of the royal lady, making Hood's white gauze skirt flutter in the air into a perfect circle.

Hu De wrapped her arms around Liu Cheng's neck. After being lifted up by the man, her plump and lonely perfect body was pressed tightly against the man because of gravity. A flower-like smile bloomed on her face, and her eyes were unwilling to leave Liu Cheng's face for a moment. Hu De raised the corners of her mouth high and said, "You lifted me up as soon as we met. What does that mean?"

Liu Cheng smiled and imitated Hood's tone of reciting poetry, saying: "I want to keep you in my heart, but you are so far away, so I want to lift you up high, like the god I believe in. Ah, Hood, my Aphrodite, I want... um..."

Under the gaze of Hu De's bright and beautiful eyes, Liu Cheng was unable to continue for a moment. It turned out that his cultural literacy still needed to be improved. Under the influence of Zhenhai and Huajia, his classical Chinese level had improved by leaps and bounds, but his English sonnets could not quite keep up.

Hood blinked and asked playfully, "What do you want?"

"I want... I want to follow your beautiful curves and protect your ammunition depot..."

"and then?"

"Then you won't be pierced by Bismarck's cannon. You will be invincible, my love."

After saying this seriously, Liu Chengxian couldn't help laughing.

Hood originally had a helpless expression, but now he also laughed. This was the feeling, the feeling of being with your loved one, so happy and relaxed, and he could finally feel it again.

The two of them hugged each other like this, and Prince Eugen on the plane pretended to go out to spoil the atmosphere, but was stopped by Belfast. Eugen, who was just joking, smiled and looked out of the porthole with the other ship girls, leaving time for the two who had been reunited after a long separation.

A glance lasts a lifetime, and they stare at each other for a long time.

Hood's clear blue eyes stared at Liu Cheng intently, and he didn't even dare to blink, as if the man in front of him would disappear in the blink of an eye.

"It's been a long time since we last met."

"Yes, half a year."

"It feels like a long time since we last met, let alone half a year." Hu De held Liu Cheng's cheek and tried to speak calmly, but he couldn't hide his bitterness. "It's a pity that I couldn't attend your wedding. I think that must have been your happiest moment. I wish your wedding will be all the best."

"..." Liu Cheng said awkwardly, "Hu De, you are a royal lady."

Hu De lowered her head and put her red lips close to Liu Cheng's ear.

On the other hand, a slightly moist breath sprayed into the ear canal: "Although a lady should always be elegant, a lady will also be jealous of the fickleness of the object of her affection, right?"

After saying this, Hu De looked at Liu Cheng's expression and smiled. It was just a small counterattack against her lover's joke just now. Of course she was jealous, but she believed that Liu Cheng could definitely give her happiness.

"Hood."

"Ah."

"I miss you."

"Ah."

“I don’t think about it all the time, but when I do think about it, I think about it a lot.”

"I know, and I think about you all the time!"

Hood finally couldn't control his emotions anymore. He lowered his beautiful face, pressed his rose-like lips against his lover's lips, and his plump, tight, perfect body trembled slightly.

After feeling the long-lost warmth, two lines of tears filled Hood's eyes and flowed across the beautiful curves of her face. Those were tears of joy, filled with a woman's longing and joy.

Chapter 3 I did it with the Dream Weaver

They held each other's bodies tightly, running their hands over each other's backs, ruffling the Admiral's uniform and chiffon skirt, and kissed until both were out of breath.

However, neither Liu Cheng nor Hu De were the type to be truly unscrupulous. After easing some of their lovesickness through intimacy, they realized that now was not the time to be unbridled. After a final entanglement, they reluctantly separated, tidying up each other's clothes and hair.

"Sheffield, you're here too. Nice to see you again."

"I am also glad to see again the pest who is two hours and forty-three minutes late... oh, the master of my fellow officer."

Having just witnessed the intimacy between Liu Cheng and Hood, such a direct shock did not bring any change to Sheffield's face. Both his expression and his response to Liu Cheng's greeting were cold and silent.

Facing the familiar venomous tongue of the little maid, Liu Cheng just smiled and explained, "The plane had to avoid dangerous waters and stopped in Leningrad for supplies, so it took a lot of time."

"You don't have to explain to me. Even if you do, I won't flatter you like Belfast did."

"...Xie Fei, you are still as sharp-tongued as ever. I don't know why, but seeing that you are still the same as before, I feel relieved for some reason."

"Being lectured and criticized actually makes me feel relieved. The world is really full of incredible people."

"Haha, because this is a familiar feeling."

Liu Cheng reached out his hand and grabbed Sheffield's hand that was covering her skirt and shook it.

Having experienced the sharp tongue of this silent maid before, Hood was still elegant and enthusiastic. He might have beautified the current situation during the communication so as not to make the other party worry too much. However, seeing that Hood and Sheffield were still the same as before, Liu Cheng knew that the situation was still under control and there was no need to worry too much.

"He started to make a move right away. He is indeed the pest I am familiar with."

Sheffield still spoke the most venomous words in the coldest tone, but she did not refuse Liu Cheng's handshake. She also covered her skirt and bowed slightly to Liu Cheng, probably as a response to not seeing him for a long time.

"Hey, Little Bear, and that nearsighted lady." Prince Eugen stood in front of the plane's door, waved at Liu Cheng from a distance and asked, "Can we get off the plane now?"

"Of course." Belfast smiled as she walked past Prince Eugen. To maintain the glory of the Royal Navy, the perfect and elegant head maid had no choice but to say, "If you can't even understand the atmosphere, the master will be very troubled."

"Your master hasn't spoken yet. It's not the character of a good maid to act on your own."

"At least I have self-awareness."

The two looked at each other, realized it was a draw again, stopped talking, and walked down the gangway separately.

Faced with Prince Eugen, a ship girl with a keen mind, only the perfect and elegant maid among the royal ship girls on the plane can compete with her.

This time when he returned to Europe, in order not to weaken the strength of the Pacific battlefield, Liu Cheng did not bring too many people. In addition to all the members of the maid corps and half of the maid Plymouth, there were Zhenhai, Perseus, Horrible, Gascogne, Pola and Chapayev, who served as Liu Cheng's staff, liaisons and doctors.

There are also Prince Eugen, Zeppelin and Elbing. Their original mission to the Pacific was to ensure the route for Europe to support Sakura Empire with supplies. Under the current situation, there is naturally no need for them to stay in the Pacific. This time they just happened to take Liu Cheng's plane and return to support the Iron Blood Operation.

Elbing was timid and a little embarrassed, but Zeppelin had a cold personality and Prince Eugen was even more mature and generous, and his thickness was probably only slightly less than Liu Cheng's, so he was able to keep a composure when he came to the royal territory and not be at a loss.

Considering that they were exhausted after sitting on a plane for more than ten hours, and for safety reasons, it was not convenient to go to the front line at night, so they decided to rest in the Royal Port area for a night and rush to the front line early the next morning.

-------------------------------------

The Royal Port area was desolate and quiet at night. The cool sea breeze with moisture hit the camphor trees on both sides of the road, and a layer of fallen leaves accumulated on the path.

Now there are only a dozen ship girls in the mobile fleet led by Reputation in the Royal Port area, so naturally they have no time to clean up the fallen leaves.

The shoes made a "splashing" sound when they stepped on it, as if there were only two people left between heaven and earth besides nature.

"The Royal Fleet is stationed on Faial Island in the Azores. The frequency of Sirens' deployment has decreased compared to before, but this time the Sirens' attacks are different from the past. There is no pattern to follow. The number of mass-produced ships is very large, but so far no difficult high-level Sirens have appeared. Therefore, we judge that their offensive is far from over and may just be the beginning."

Hood and Liu Cheng walked side by side on the path outside the royal seaside villa. Due to the war, even if they were not guests, the royal ship girls slept closer to the sea to deal with emergencies.

Liu Cheng listened to Hood's words and nodded. This was very similar to the situation in the Pacific battlefield. The current situation was very easy to deal with, but everyone judged that this was just the beginning.

"What about the Red Axis? Where is their fleet stationed?"

“São Miguel Island.”

"Ah?" As a navy officer, Liu Cheng was of course very familiar with the important islands and ports at sea. He said with some surprise, "They are also in the Azores? The two islands are... less than 200 nautical miles apart?"

"That's right." Hood nodded and said, "No matter how much you insist, everyone understands the principle of remote coordination on a battlefield like this. At present, the 38th parallel north is the boundary. The Royal and Northern Alliance fleets are dealing with the north, and the Red Axis fleet is dealing with the south. There has been no friction between us for the time being."

"It's a tacit cooperation, but the Siren won't be so tacit."

"Indeed, the Sirens will not evenly distribute their forces based on the 38th parallel. Sometimes they will attack the southern line, and sometimes they will attack the northern line. We can still cope with it at the moment, but if the offensive becomes more fierce, the battle will become tense."

Liu Cheng stopped, looked at the dark clouds in the sky and sighed: "That's why unity is imperative."

Hood also raised his head slightly, but Liu Cheng was looking up at the sky, while Hood was looking at Liu Cheng's profile. His beautiful blue eyes were affectionate and tender. As long as this man was by her side, she felt that there would be no difficulties.

"By the way, shouldn't you tell me how you knew the Sirens were about to attack?"
