How come I, who has the physique of a succubus, was pushed back by the ship girl?

Like a spring breeze, gentle and ladylike words came one after another, and the person quickly revealed her identity.

"Please advise me, Miss Glory."

Different from the casual and unrestrained style of the Iron Blooded, the royal family attaches great importance to etiquette.

Naturally, some greetings were unavoidable, and after a few more sentences, the other party finally brought the topic of the visit out into the open.

"In compliance with His Majesty's order, I, as the representative of the royal family, have come to express my sincere gratitude to the brave and wise commander."

"That night, if it weren't for your timely warning and subsequent support, I'm afraid the losses suffered by the royal family would not be limited to this."

In troubled times, no one can stay out of the world. Other camps have been invaded one after another, and the royal camp is naturally no exception.

On the second night after Zhou Xuan discovered the Sirens, the Siren army split up and launched a fierce attack.

The target of the attack was a royal port area, which was across the sea from the eastern port area where Zhou Xuan was located.

Former enemy, now ally.

Taking advantage of the storm and the critical moment when the air force was on the verge of paralysis, the Siren's attack was tantamount to giving them a fatal blow.

Having lost air superiority and facing endless carrier-based aircraft, no matter how brave the ship girls are, they are nothing more than living targets.

If it weren't for the air support provided by Zhou Xuan later, the Royal Navy would have been defeated in the port, or even lost the city and fled inland.

Turn the tide when it is about to fall, and support the building when it is about to collapse.

For Guanghui, Zhou Xuan's arrival was crucial. It saved the defeat and indirectly saved the lives of his companions.

After all, with their proud character, they will probably hold on to the end until they sink in the cold sea.

"No matter how the commander refuses, I and the royal family will remember this favor in our hearts."

In Zhou Xuan's understanding, the royal lady Guanghui has always been known for her elegance.

But this time, in front of him, her emotions were out of control again and again, and in the end, there was even a hint of crying in her words.

This shows how deeply this battle had touched her.

Emotions always have to have a place to vent. Zhou Xuan listened quietly, acting as a listener.

After Guanghui relaxed her breath, adjusted her state, and returned to her previous calm and elegance, she spoke slowly but with full of fighting spirit.

"Don't worry, your majesty has ordered that in the subsequent battles, our port area will actively respond to all your orders until the Siren is defeated."

"In addition, she asked me to ask you if you are interested in visiting the Royal Palace. We will gather all the resources in the country to express our sincerest gratitude to you."

Zhou Xuan remained silent and was not in a hurry to give an answer, responding to all changes with the unchanging approach.

And as if seeing his concerns, or perhaps afraid that the cooked duck would fly away, Guanghui smiled sweetly and then added.

"Of course, Her Majesty the Queen will personally handle the procedural issues for you. I just want to know your answer, Commander. Hehehe~"

Although they have now put aside their past grudges and formed an alliance, they are still two camps with different ideologies. This question is not easy for Zhou Xuan to answer.

Want to go? Undoubtedly, Zhou Xuan, who had the dream of becoming the hegemon of Chuanqi, did want to go.

But no matter what he thought, Zhou Xuan was not a person who was too ambitious.

We must take one step at a time. It would be too hasty to hastily consider the next step before the iron-blooded journey promised to Bismarck is completed and before the iron-blooded journey has made a name for itself.

At this point, in response to Guanghui's answer, Zhou Xuan already had a plan.

Without too many hypocritical words, Zhou Xuan just straightened his chest and spoke confidently.

"Definitely next time."

Chapter 45: The weather is getting cold, quickly put a yellow robe on the commander~

Small attacks will lead to erosion, large attacks will lead to defeat. All the time, the Siren fleet is advancing forward, pressing forward step by step.

From thousands of nautical miles at the beginning, it was gradually shortened to hundreds or even dozens of nautical miles.

The situation is imminent and the current situation is not optimistic.

there is always a solution to a problem.

Fortunately, this was anticipated. With one order, all the ship girls in the East Port area were mobilized by Zhou Xuan, ready to fight the enemy at any time.

Even Elbin, who had always been timid, overcame his fear for the sake of his homeland and the boy he loved.

He volunteered and resolutely participated in the training of everyone, ready to contribute his own little bit of strength to the greatest extent.

Even if we have thousands of troops, as long as we are united, we will be invincible. This was Zhou Xuan's opening tone at the pre-war mobilization meeting.

The speech was so touching and moved everyone who heard it. It was like a prairie fire that made all the ship girls more motivated.

Everyone's blood was boiling, and intense applause and echoes followed like a violent storm.

"Fight for the port! Fight for the commander!"

Led Zeppelin was the first to express his passion, his voice was sonorous and deafening.

She overshadowed everyone else's momentum in one fell swoop, and her vow-like determination continued to echo throughout the huge venue.

Not wanting to fall behind, and even more unwilling to have their commander overlook their determination, the girls responded with great momentum and a heart-stirring response ensued.

"Fight for the port! Fight for the commander!"

"Fight for the port! Fight for the commander!"

Each voice was louder than the last, full of sincerity. The responses from the girls were like the waves of a warm summer day, pouring into his heart endlessly.

The mood is hard to describe. Zhou Xuan only knows that the burden on his shoulders will become heavier because of this thriving sense of responsibility.

Having accomplished his duty brilliantly, Zhou Xuan nodded and responded solemnly.

After the mobilization phase is over, the next step is to plan for pre-war preparations.

Seeing that Eugen didn't move, Zhou Xuan, who didn't understand why, quietly reached out his hand and passed through the gap between the two of them.

He pinched the corner of her clothes, and gently pulled the hem of her skirt once or twice as a reminder.

Seeing that she finally reacted and turned her gaze to him, Zhou Xuan followed the instructions and took a big step back.

He was prepared to give up his central position to her, and let her arrange the next battle plan.

One was in charge of government, and the other was in charge of war, which was related to military affairs. Before this, the two tacitly cooperated in this way in all meetings, big and small.

But unexpectedly, Eugen was unmoved today and just smiled and shook his head.

While silently refusing, she placed her free left hand tightly over the back of his hand.

After exchanging glances and conveying all the deep affection in her eyes to Zhou Xuan, Eugen stepped forward and slowly spoke in front of all the ship girls.

"No need, Commander... Since you took office, you have proven your outstanding abilities to me and everyone else through things both big and small."

"When it comes to government affairs, you have enough patience to handle all matters, no matter how big or small. When it comes to war, you have a keen sense of smell and the military qualities of being able to plan and strategize and adapt to changing circumstances."

"All aspects show that you are an extremely good commander. Therefore, I have no reason to distinguish between being in charge of politics and being in charge of battle."

"I am your deputy. This has been made clear beforehand. If possible, I would also like to act as your strong shield and accompany you forward in the future."

Every sentence is clear, and Eugen's intentions gradually emerge, coming from the heart and carrying the unanimous emotions of everyone.

True love is the hardest to respond to. Zhou Xuan looked around and he could see the same strong trust and enthusiasm in their eyes.

Looking back to his original intention, as early as when Zhou Xuan came to this world, he had already made up his mind to work hard towards the goal of achieving hegemony over Chuanqi.

And when he finally accomplished his initial goal, he discovered that, unlike the calmness on the surface, his burning heart was beating rapidly in private.

He was so happy that he wanted to say something to respond to the girls' affection for him, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know where to start.

He had just received high praise from Eugen, but the next second he showed his slow side in front of her.

It was really funny and he covered his face with his hands. He changed his serious attitude when making the public announcement and started to make a joke.

"Well, Commander, why should we differentiate between you and me? I've already said this, you're not really going to refuse in front of everyone, are you?"

"If that's the case, why don't you let Zeppelin put a yellow robe on you~ I think she would be happy to oblige."

Perhaps even she was looking forward to such a scene. Excited, Eugen turned to look at Zeppelin and said loudly.

"What are you still standing there for, Zeppelin? The weather is getting cold, why don't you quickly put some clothes on the commander?"

Even with Zhou Xuan, Zeppelin's world was still so extremely pure, and he had no idea about the twists and turns in it.

After listening for a while, I still couldn't really understand what the two people wanted to express.

Confused, and suddenly his name was called, the slow-witted Zeppelin hurriedly straightened his chest and stood upright, like a poor student whose name was called by the teacher.

Not knowing how to cooperate, he could only remain indifferent, ignoring Eugen's teasing, and act as if he was following the commander's lead.

The harvest was filled with joy, and the gentle sounds of chuckles were pleasant to the ears. It was obvious that Eugen had also studied the history of Donghuang.

He has a certain understanding of historical allusions such as the three refusal and the wearing of the yellow robe.

Being used to looking ahead, it is not difficult to imagine how happy she was when she learned this and used it to imagine today's scene.

In this case, Zhou Xuan must not let Eugen's wishful thinking succeed. He held his head high and said.

"I just don't know what to say. It's not as exaggerated as you say. I have to accept it now. I am fully prepared to take on this important task."

"Of course, if you really want me to wear the yellow robe, I don't mind."

After saying that, Zhou Xuan opened his arms in a fit of anger, and treated the man in his own way.

The young boy's nature is particularly adorable. As they spend every day together, while silently influencing them, Zhou Xuan's personality also becomes more tsundere.

The current performance is the best proof. Everyone is smiling happily and affectionately, and their eyes looking at Zhou Xuan have become softer.

It was just a joke after all. How could Eugen find him a yellow robe in such a short time?

But nothing is difficult in the world, as long as there are people who are willing.

She didn't put on the yellow robe, but she still had a warm hug for her beloved boy.

She stretched out her hands and passed them straight across his waist, and as the distance between them increased, Eugen pressed tightly against his chest.

Listen carefully to his quickened heartbeat, and listen deeply to the whispers he left in your ears.

"I won't let you down, Eugen. I won't let anyone down."

Although it was expected, when he actually heard Zhou Xuan's answer, perhaps even Eugen did not expect how happy he would be.

Finally willing to leave that warm chest, Eugen smiled like a flower, raised her head, and like a virtuous wife, she fixed his collar while speaking.

"That's more like it. I told you last time that we Iron-blooded people don't have so many rules. There's no need for those meaningless excuses."

"As long as you can do your job well and live up to our kindness, that's enough."

After tidying up her messy collar and finishing her words, Eugen turned around and returned to the queue of ship girls below the stage.

Leading by example, Eugen put away his usual cynical demeanor, stood up straight, his military aura evident, then changed the subject and spoke solemnly.

"Then... from now on, Commander, starting from this battle, the future of the world will depend on us, working together!"

One call led to a hundred responses. Following Eugen's actions, all the ship girls in the audience also gave him a solemn iron-blooded military salute.

Full of vigor and high spirits, Zhou Xuan lifted the corner of his hat brim, then raised his head and responded with the same momentum and confidence.

"Then let's fight!"

Chapter 46: War Preparations

No one knows how the Sirens appeared in this world, and no one knows what their ultimate goal will be.

All we know is that after a loud bang one day, the world fell into an endless crisis.

Rather than describing them as spring weeds, the ship girls would rather describe the Siren fleet as inexhaustible locusts.

No matter how many mass-produced Sirens are destroyed, after a while, they will be like evil spirits in the deep sea.

Following some invisible call, it surfaced again, turned its guns around, and continued to attack them.

This cycle goes on over and over again, and over the years, the ship girls have become accustomed to this routine.

For Eugen, who had experienced many battles, she had experienced large-scale military operations before, but this was the first time she had seen something as strange as this one.

With sharp eyes, everyone focused on the busy figure on the stage. Through Zhou Xuan's introduction, the information about the battle was presented to them one by one.

It seems that he has suffered a lot and has learned his lesson.

Knowing that those mass-produced Sirens of destroyer and light cruiser level cannot pose much threat to the brave and warlike ship girls.
