This time, Hood and the others are spending money to win over the second-year and first-year admirals.
When Vian saw the news brought back by Lexington, he shook his head.
Compared with the third-year admirals, most of the admirals who signed up for the lower-year positions are second-year admirals, although the admirals who remain in the first year now already have at least one ship girl.
But the admiral who embodied the ship's body is still good.
In particular, some admirals who were originally relatively poor were unexpectedly lucky enough to build a battleship. In less than a year, they did not even have enough resources to build the ship.
So I could only watch others take the assessment and see them go to receive tasks from the E-United Department.
There are also admirals with good talents and strong resources who now have two available warships.
Even if an admiral who is interested in the resources of the E-Union is lured over, he still has a huge problem to face.
After all, they are fighting on their own to get some resources, and the strength of the ship girls is definitely not as good as that of others whose warships have been trained and modified for several years.
All we can do is to hold back some of the people in the J-United Department, but we can also help others achieve results.
The academy has also announced the news of this assessment as it is approaching. Just like previous years, it will be a live-fire melee assessment, with each student fighting on their own.
The assessment location is in the Central Theater, close to the waters of the Northern Theater, where the exercises and examinations are conducted in the sea areas that have been blockaded by the KanColle and major joint departments.
The sea area has a radius of 250 nautical miles, and there are various island blocks for docking and rest.
It is very simple to achieve a higher ranking. Just make more warships lose their combat capability. The longer you stay on the sea, the more admirals you defeat and the better your result.
It also prevents some admirals from achieving good results by hiding and staying until the end.
Every bit of achievement must be exchanged for victories.
The factions formed by the commanders of the various joint departments are like illegal teams in a chaotic war.
Although on the surface everyone is an opponent, inwardly they have secretly united together.
The Ship Girls Association has no objection to this kind of behavior. It is impossible to fight against the deep sea with only one admiral and one ship girl.
This is why more people are willing to join the J-United Department this year.
Songlin has several battleships that obey the command of an admiral, and their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of other admirals in groups of three or four.
This is also the reason why Hood is more optimistic about Wei'an.
Chapter 174 Fleet Complete
There are 100 brains for 100 admirals, and it is impossible for them to agree with each other. Even if several admirals with good strength get together, they will have different opinions.
And the ship girls only listen to their own admirals.
Wei An only needs to command his own ship girls to match the battle results of several admirals at the same time, because these ship girls can rely on each other and make appropriate sacrifices.
However, under such rules, there is another way to quickly achieve victory: beheading.
After all, the assessment is to select the admiral. When the admiral's command ship is beheaded and destroyed, all the ship girls led by him will withdraw from the assessment and their results will be frozen.
This is also one of the advantages of having multiple ship girl admirals, they have more opportunities to trial and error.
This is also the advantage of Songlin’s construction of the light mothership this time.
The light carrier does not need close contact combat like other warships, and the probability of being severely damaged is not high, so the probability of the admiral being eliminated is also reduced.
This made some admirals of the G League who had originally planned to eliminate him by focusing their fire on the Songlin battleship very angry.
Not to mention that this time, according to the information Wei'an received, there were only two admirals who owned submarines, and they were fighting on their own.
One intends to join the Fi Union Department, and the other intends to join the Ar Union Department, because their ship girls are of these two nationalities.
Are two lone soldiers willing to go down into the water and face the pine forest?
The probability of this happening is very small, unless one is lucky enough to encounter one and there are no other warships around him.
At the same time, the warships manifested by the ship girls are obviously different from ordinary warships.
Ordinary warships may need to return to port for repairs after being damaged in battle before they can continue fighting, but they can continue fighting after just taking a bath, which is different from the ordinary warships that may take ten days or half a month.
They may be fine in a few hours or even more than ten hours.
As long as the ship girl is not badly damaged, she will not be eliminated. She can find a suitable island or area to rest and then repair the warship and prepare for the next battle.
After the assessment content is announced, the busiest time for all admirals begins.
Many admirals have to make targeted arrangements based on the sea areas where assessments are to be conducted.
And now Vian was staying in his study with his ship girl. He was holding a pen and drawing on the map he got from Hood.
"The sea area used this year is much larger than last year, and there are nine islands where we can take a short break. It seems that the Union still hopes to give other admirals a chance."
Because the strength of the admirals last year was relatively similar, Vian learned from Hood that the previous assessment sea area was only 150 nautical miles in radius, and the battle was relatively fierce and chaotic.
But this year, the formation of cliques like Songlin and E-Union has further squeezed the space for admirals who are willing to join other unions. It is possible that the warships of their two unions will be exhausted.
It was a one-sided fleet advance.
"Then Admiral, will it have any impact on us?"
"The bigger the space, the more advantage we will have. We just need to stay away from the main group before we start."
"Our advantage over other fleets is that we have strong enemy detection and reconnaissance capabilities, long strike range, and our fleet's speed is beyond their reach."
"Then Commander, aren't we going with those admirals from the E-United Forces?"
Lexington asked his own question.
"No, if we follow them, we will be too conspicuous and won't be able to play to our strengths. Besides, Songlin is also keeping an eye on us. It's too dangerous."
"There are eight entrances in total. All we have to do is to do a good job of reconnaissance and hide ourselves. There is no rush to fight."
"And Gaga and Shropshire, you will stay with me on the battleship Lexington from the beginning, and summon the battleship after you enter."
"There's no need to expose your strength right from the start."
"Okay Commander."
Things like Wei'an holding combat meetings for ship girls are happening in every dormitory in the academy.
Some, like Wei'an, discussed with their own ship girls alone, while several admirals brought more than a dozen ship girls to discuss together.
But their goal is the same, to win!
◇
1 month 15 day.
Wei An looked at the excited girls, and his heart finally settled down.
After more than half a month of making the ship uniforms, today each of them got the ship uniform they wanted.
Shimakaze's torpedoes, Yukikaze's main guns and anti-aircraft guns, Saratoga's radars, and Lexington's carrier-based aircraft security were all arranged for them.
Especially Lexington's carrier-based aircraft, Vian gave him 15 of both types of carrier-based aircraft.
It can be achieved that each type of carrier-based aircraft can fill the hangar of 220 aircraft.
As a result, his resources have been greatly reduced in the true sense.
Oil: 10000
Ammo: 4300
Steel: 9600
Aluminum: 5000
Battleship core: 0
Mind Core (Heavy Cruise): 0
Azure Coin: 374700
Energy: 10000/∞
But it also means that all the ship girls under his command have already formed combat effectiveness and are now just waiting for security inspection.
"Admiral, Admiral! I love this Torpedo Island!"
After replacing her original torpedo, Shimakaze felt that this torpedo was more powerful than her previous one.
"Then Shimakaze should use more torpedoes in the future!"
He pinched Shimakaze's collagen-filled little face like he was coaxing a child.
"Shima-nyan must use torpedoes to defeat all enemies for the admiral!"
Seeing that they were all destroyers but had different hobbies, Wei An was filled with emotion.
While Shimakaze preferred torpedoes, Yukikaze was more attentive to her own main guns.
She prefers this sturdy and powerful main gun.
After all, if she wanted to use torpedoes, she would need to get close to the enemy and engage in battle. As Wei An's sister, she didn't want to make him worry.
As for Guogan, he likes all the equipment.
The one who had the biggest reaction was Yixian.
She had never thought that she would have a share in the torpedo this time. Looking at the equipment on her battleship, she wanted her two sisters to see the changes in herself.
Things she couldn't do before, she can do now.
"Commander, thank you for your hard work during this period."
Looking at Vian who seemed relieved, Lexington stood behind him and rubbed his shoulders with some heartache.
Especially since she was in charge of Wei'an's finances, she could more deeply understand how huge the amount of resources Wei'an spent on her was.
"It's all worth it. Now I'll have to work hard for you guys. I've done what I needed to do."
"Just leave it to us."
Lexington said, and then he called the other girls together, especially Shropshire and Saratoga.
"Jia Jia, you guys put away the warships first. The commander has arranged an exercise for us today."
"Their people should be here soon."
Chapter 175 What’s so scary about an aircraft carrier?
As Vian's largest investor and the person who trusts him the most, Hood of course agreed when she heard that Vian wanted to conduct an exercise with the E-Union ship girls.
As for why Wei'an proposed this exercise.
The rich ladies have spent all their money, so they have to show others the results. Besides, the strength of the E-Union ship girls is not comparable to that of ordinary admirals.
It is more stressful to compare yourself with them and find out your own shortcomings.
For this reason, when Hood heard the opponent chosen by Vian, she fell silent.
There was not a single destroyer, light cruiser or heavy cruiser.
What are the requirements?
Battleships, battlecruisers, aircraft carriers, submarines, and even her name were on Vian's list.
How can she not remain silent?
"Have you really thought it through? The ship girls on your list are all legendary ship girls. I'm afraid that the gap in strength is too big, which may backfire."
"That's it. How can there be motivation without pressure? Besides, letting them experience it for themselves can also relieve some of your pressure."
Lexington and his friends often walked around the E-United Division's garrison area, and he understood the pressure Hood was bearing for him.
Especially since such a large sum of money was spent on him this time, although those ship girls would not say anything to Hood, they still had some opinions about him.
After all, he hadn't done anything yet, but Hood, Elizabeth and others had already put so much effort into him.
"Then you can also choose those ship girls whose strength is close to that of this assessment. This way you can better practice your strength. These legendary ship girls are too strong."
"It's okay. I believe in my shipgirl and my own transformation technology."
"Well, I look forward to your next performance."
◇
A warship has already docked on the sea outside Vian's dock.
Standing on the deck were Elizabeth and some ship girls beside her.
“I don’t know what surprises he can bring us this time.”
