His sapphire pupils dilated and his mind went blank.

I'm boiling shit!

Chapter 182 Air supremacy

This scene was watched by Hui, who had already started to play badly. In the end, she just sighed with relief. There was only one Yukikaze on her side, while Hood was besieged by several ship girls.

Although Hood's speed was 40 knots, this attack had surrounded her and there was no way to avoid it. Even if she turned the ship around now, it would be useless.

She tried to calm down as thoughts kept flashing through her mind, but the final answers were all unanswerable.

She didn't come to her senses until the torpedo and bomber attacks fell on her, declaring that she was forced out.

However, Lexington and Saratoga, which had completed this battle, did not return. Instead, a large number of fighter planes did not attack.

So their target changed. They were war-weary on the ground, Nelson and the others. Fighter planes roared past them, and they could only shoot down a few of them helplessly.

The rest of the practice bombs also fell steadily onto their decks, until finally Yukikaze's torpedo hit the Solitaire, announcing the end of this exercise.

The legendary ship girl from the E-Union didn't have the slightest ability to fight back.

It was not until Wei An brought his ship girls back to them that he saw that they all looked dazed.

As to why Vian could win so easily this time, wasn’t the opponent a legendary ship girl?

Or maybe the ship girls in this world don't pay enough attention to air defense, and although aircraft carriers consume a lot of resources, carrier-based aircraft are, after all, mobile bombs that can be generated by spending resources.

It's better than being hit and bruised on a battleship, after all, if the gun is broken, it has no attack capability, and if the power system is broken, it will be a coffin floating on the sea.

They are proud of their gunnery skills and battleship command capabilities. As long as my ships are outside your attack range, they will be sitting ducks.

Another reason is that they lost air superiority.

The Glory couldn't even take off its plane and was directly controlled in its own hangar and deck, waiting to die, not to mention that the other ship girls had no ability to counterattack.

Wei'an's previous life was that the era of aircraft carriers and battleships was gone forever, and the emergence of missiles nailed the coffin lid of battleships.

The performance of Lexington and Saratoga in this battle also surprised Vian.

It has a faster take-off speed than a normal aircraft carrier, more balanced carrier-based aircraft flight technology, and fighter jets that can be replenished in a timely manner without returning to port for resupply.

The upper limit of the battle between an aircraft carrier operated by a ship girl and a battleship ship girl can only be greater than a normal naval battle.

The difference in training levels between ship girls can also seriously aggravate this problem. Even if they are two identical aircraft carriers, their training levels are different.

It is also possible that a highly trained aircraft carrier can easily defeat a weaker aircraft carrier and cause it to lose air superiority, and the opponent's surface fleet will begin to die a passive and slow death.

Looking at the two aircraft carriers protected in the center by several gunboats, Hood and his companions could only stare blankly.

With only one aircraft carrier, they were beaten by the other side's two aircraft carriers, a fleet of 9 ship girls in total. (Elizabeth did not participate in the battle.)

On the other side, all of Vian’s ship girls gathered on the battleship Lexington.

"Admiral! Admiral! This time, Shima-nyan didn't even try hard! They were defeated! I will try harder next time!"

Shimakaze pouted and shook Vian's hand.

"Shimakaze did a great job this time! Without Shimakaze's efforts, the admiral would be in danger."

Compared to the active Shimakaze, the other ship girls are obviously much quieter, especially Clemenceau, Yukikaze and Shropshire.

The three of them looked at the two Lexington sisters with complicated eyes.

They knew that Wei'an had always valued aircraft carriers and had put a lot of effort into it, but just like Hood and the others.

They are all gunboats, especially Shropshire and Yukikaze, both of whom are ship girls who have lived in this world for many years.

Their views are the same as those of most ship girls. They are more optimistic about the role of gunboats and believe more in the role of battleships at sea.

But today, in just a few hours, all of this was turned upside down.

As Hood's opponents, the commands they heard were mostly about buying time for Lexington and others and creating more space. The rest would be left to them.

Even the torpedoes they launched were mostly intended to restrict Hood and his men's sailing route and speed.

They are really doing what a frigate should do.

While the Yukikaze hull is being remodeled, Vian also has to carefully battle the deep sea.

When the Clemenceau's hull was remodeled, it was able to crush legendary ship girls like Shropshire.

Now that the aircraft carrier has been remodeled and the fleet has taken shape, they have defeated a legendary fleet with an underdog.

They already have the power to change the course of battle.

So Clemenceau and the others could only look at the two aircraft carriers with complicated expressions. They could feel the powerlessness of Hood and the others at that time.

On the way back to the academy, Hood and the others did not talk to Wei'an immediately, but just kept looking at the aircraft carrier.

Only after Vian had arranged for his ship girls to enter the channel did Vian sit alone on the big sofa in his villa, facing several girls with complicated eyes.

"Ms. Hood, Dean, don't just stand there and watch. If you have anything to say or anything you want to ask, just ask."

Wei An filled a cup of black tea for each of them.

"Is this your aircraft carrier?"

Hood's fingers were tightly clenched on the handle of the teacup, and he spoke intermittently.

"Ah."

"Why is it so strong?"

"Air supremacy."

"Air supremacy?"

"Maybe you, Dean, usually deal with the deep sea. Seizing air superiority is more to prevent the carrier-based aircraft in the deep sea from interfering with your surface ships."

"It is more troublesome for surface ships to deal with carrier-based aircraft, so there is a method of using gunboats to deal with gunboats and aircraft carriers to deal with aircraft carriers. This has become a habit over a long period of time."

"Aircraft carriers are difficult to train, so people tend to overlook the fact that aircraft carriers can do more than just seize air superiority. They can also provide offensive advantages after gaining air superiority."

"So everyone's air defense awareness is not strong enough. As a result, they have no ability to fight back when attacked by people like Saratoga."

"And maybe everyone is not as extreme as me and equipped the ship girl with a complete bomber. Everyone has seen the effect, it is worth the money."

They had already reacted to what Wei An said on the way, and at the same time, they felt even more bitter.

"Is there a solution to that?"

Hood looked at the culprit who caused all this with expectation.

"Unless we get close enough to the aircraft carrier to make it lose its combat capability, we can either seize air superiority or strengthen our air defense firepower."

Chapter 183 Commander, your current talent is not the sum of your strength, right?

"Or we could have a means of attack that is farther away than an aircraft carrier, and destroy them the moment we discover them."

"Ms. Hood, you don't have to worry too much. How many admirals like me do you think there are? And aircraft carrier girls like Lexington?"

"How many admirals really value aircraft carriers?"

After saying that, Wei An sighed.

The fact that his aircraft carrier is strong does not mean that other people’s aircraft carriers are also strong, and it does not bring much change to the world.

"Today, I wanted to help you correct your thinking and stop fighting on the aircraft carrier. At the same time, I wanted to see how strong you are. But I didn't expect it to be beyond our expectations."

“Is this the potential of an aircraft carrier?”

"But that's good too. No one will doubt your ability anymore, so I don't have to worry about this assessment."

After Hood finished speaking, the other ship girls who had previously been suspicious of Wei'an also lowered their heads and did not refute.

"Don't worry about your future safety. We, the legendary ship girls, can't do anything to you, let alone the other admirals and the deep sea."

After Hood finished speaking, he took a deep breath, calmed down, and looked at the other ship girls around him.

"Do you have any objections to supporting Admiral Wei'an?"

The E-Union ship girls shook their heads and said nothing.

"Then do you have any objections to raising Admiral Wei'an's funding plan to the highest level?"

This time Wei An clearly felt their gazes on him, and they all shook their heads.

Agincourt, who was particularly opposed to Hood's insistence on favoring Vian, was the fastest to shake his head.

Hood then smiled and looked back at Vian.

"Let me explain to you the highest level of funding."

"1. After you build your garrison, the E-Union will unconditionally send three ship girls to protect the safety of your garrison. The daily expenses will be borne by the E-Union. You can choose any of the ship girls in the E-Union, including me."

"2. You can receive a subsidy worth 2 resources per month for the daily consumption of the ship girl."

"3. The E-Union's expedition and business routes will be open to you. You can do business in all the places guarded by the E-Union. At the same time, the E-Union's ship girls will escort you. Everything you earn will be yours, but there will be no annual fixed resource subsidy."

"4. You can choose any unmanned garrison owned by the E-United Forces. You can also choose any unmanned island or area outside of extremely dangerous waters. The E-United Forces will help you."

"5. You can run for the position of Governor of the E-Union, but you are the only admiral with the highest authority for so many years, so you have no competitors."

"6. Your garrison has complete autonomy and has priority in rescue in times of danger."

"But there's a price to pay. If you accept this condition, you can no longer choose other alliances. You have to stick with Alliance E until the end."

"We will also issue a statement to other ministries, and they will not come to snatch people away."

"Do you want to?"

At this moment, none of the ship girls in the E-Union were not nervous.

Now Wei'an is no longer just a potential admiral, but a truly powerful admiral.

And he had only been admiral for less than half a year.

If you don’t fight for it, you’re a fool.

"Have I ever changed my mind? Of course I have."

Hood's conditions still made him very tempted.

Not to mention the resources he earns every month just by doing nothing, what does the opening of flight routes for him represent?

In the future, he can sell equipment and resources under the banner of the E-Union. In addition to trading with the ship girl admiral, he can also trade with other unions.

There is no such thing as tolls in between.

There are also ship girls from the E-Union to escort him, providing free labor and security.

He can also ask Dede to come to his naval base and work for him.

However, what excited him the most was that he could freely choose the naval base. No one chose his parents' naval base, and only the ship girls of the E-Union were stationed there.

Hasn't he been working all this time just for this day?

As for his autonomy, he doesn't have to be afraid of the KanColle Union assigning him tasks or something. He can do whatever he wants, as long as he doesn't betray the KanColle Union.

As for rescue, if a deep-sea invasion occurs in the same sea area, the chances of survival will be greater if you are rescued first.

However, among so many conditions, what attracted him the most was that Hood could do things for him. As a blonde girl with glasses, how could he not like that?

Isn't the reason he works hard to become stronger so that he can live a free and happy life with the ship girls?

If he could go to the bathroom, he wouldn't want to work so hard, but now he still has a long way to go.

Question Feiti, understand Feiti, recognize Feiti, and become Feiti.

But now there is a little obstacle on the road, whether it is the navy or the deep sea.

So he will not dare to relax until the day when he grows up and these problems are no longer a problem.

Vian's answer immediately made them happy. At the same time, Hood took out the form he had prepared long ago from his ship's space and handed it to Vian.

Just wait for Wei'an's signature and it will take effect.

Wei'an did not refuse and signed in one go. The agreement came into effect immediately, waiting for Wei'an to go through the process and pass the assessment of the Joint Department, and then transfer his information to the E-Joint Department through the KanColle Joint Headquarters.

He is the core admiral of the E-Union Department, and he can graduate early and choose his own naval base.

It also made Elizabeth feel relieved.

She finally saw this day.

The agreement signed between them became binding on both parties. Wei'an finally joined the E Department, and she no longer had to worry about Wei'an being snatched away by other departments.

But the happiest person was Hood.
