Daily life with the ship girl

Lexington was multitasking. On the one hand, he cooperated with his sister in the bombing of the deep-sea destroyers and deep-sea light cruisers inside the deep-sea port area, and on the other hand, he operated four BTDs to greet the uninvited guests.

The two carrier-based aircraft teams met in the air five minutes later. Lexington shared the vision of the carrier-based aircraft and saw that the other side had at least twenty SBD Dreadnoughts. These were anti-submarine carrier-based aircraft. Could it be that the other side was a light aircraft carrier?

However, our side was now at a critical juncture in the battle, and it was no longer clear who was the enemy or the friend. Lexington formed a passive defense posture in a V-shaped flight sequence and intercepted in front of those carrier-based aircraft.

At the same time, Raider and Brooklyn were on their way. After leaving the First Ship Girl Academy, they did not graduate but took a long vacation and traveled for a few years. During these years, they traveled all over the country and had rich practical experience, and their own ship equipment was naturally very sophisticated.

Brooklyn used the [Standard Countermeasure Radar: 40% Air Defense Correction] that she had just installed not long ago to find that the Raiders' carrier-based aircraft were in a standoff with the enemy's four carrier-based aircraft. She said helplessly:

"We have been discovered in advance. Raiders, please do not engage in conflict with the enemy. Please retreat first."

"Okay, but you have to pay for the fuel. Don't you know that this is very fuel-consuming?" The attacker pouted, but still withdrew the carrier-based aircraft.

Lexington breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know which ship girl these carrier-based aircraft belonged to. Since the other party chose to retreat, it might be unintentional to take the wine. However, Pinghai suddenly shouted:

"We have found out the number of the enemy, there are only two of them. No, dozens of miles behind them, we found two deep sea fleet reinforcements, four light carriers! What should we do?"

"Reinforcements from the deep sea? Oh no, they might be coming from Island B!" Lexington thought to herself that this was not good. Their original battle plan was not like this. They originally wanted someone to monitor the movements of Islands AB, but they were worried that the Second Fleet would be in danger because they encountered deep-sea submarines. Helena and others might have seen that this deep-sea port was within their reach, so they gave up the original safe plan.

Now the disadvantages of taking risks have finally been revealed, and deep-sea reinforcements have indeed arrived at Islands AB.

Lexington secretly blamed herself, but she also knew that now was not the time to think about these things. She immediately recalled all her carrier-based aircraft from the airspace above the port area of ​​Island C, and then she shouted to Walkerland:

"Walkerlan, go inform Gaga that the bombing mission here is now handed over to her. I'm going to support the two ship girls who accidentally entered the battlefield."

"I understand." Walkeran nodded, then left the team and headed in the direction of Saratoga.

Lexington began to replenish the damaged carriers. Although carrier-based aircraft can be regenerated, each regenerated carrier-based aircraft consumes a large amount of aluminum. This is why the aircraft carrier will try its best to avoid its carrier-based aircraft being sunk by the anti-aircraft artillery of the deep-sea light cruiser during combat, because as long as a carrier-based aircraft is sunk, it means more aluminum will be consumed, which is an additional consumption for the naval base.

After replenishing the carrier-based aircraft and maintaining the full complement to seventy aircraft, she then began to refuel and refuel these carrier-based aircraft.

The situation is urgent now, and Lexington has no time to care about its own resources. The aluminum it carries this time is to ensure the consumption of three days of combat, which means it can replenish the 70 carrier-based aircraft it currently carries nine times.

Lexington understood that it was because of his negligence that he failed to foresee the reinforcements from the deep sea in advance, which led to the current serious situation.

If they cannot quickly attack the deep-sea port C at this time, then as long as the two deep-sea reinforcements arrive, they will probably be caught in the dilemma of being attacked from both sides. Moreover, the opponent's twelve deep-sea submarines are always a huge rock weighing on Lexington's heart.

At this moment, she could only pray that the two ship girls who had mistakenly entered could wait until their carrier-based aircraft arrived. As for sending other people over, that was impossible.

Lexington understood that no one was strong enough to attack the V-shaped port entrance. The endless stream of deep-sea light cruisers and deep-sea destroyers could only be effectively annihilated under the strong firepower suppression of Richelieu and Bismarck, but it was only a temporary suppression.

It was just to the extent that they would not be overwhelmed by the countless deep-sea destroyers and deep-sea light cruisers. But now they were only consuming the deep-sea fleets of Island C. If they could not enter the deep-sea port area of ​​Island C in time, they would not be able to prevent the endless stream of deep-sea fleets from appearing. In that case, they would be exhausted to death by the deep sea.

Lexington knew very well that for every island occupied by the deep sea, the only way to completely prevent the reappearance of the deep sea fleet was to cut off the source of the deep sea fleet once and for all. Just like the Island C in front of him, the source of the deep sea was inside the port area.

However, Lexington and Saratoga conducted repeated high-altitude reconnaissance but could not figure out the source. It was as if an unknown force had blocked all investigations.

Lexington guessed that only by crossing the V-shaped strait and entering the deep-sea port area could the true face of the source be seen.

However, what he and his men might now face is the dilemma of being attacked from both sides by the deep sea, and the attack of four deep-sea light carriers made Lexington feel that it might not be so easy to safeguard his air superiority.

Therefore, Lexington must rescue the two ship girls who accidentally entered the battlefield no matter what. Now she has to seize every opportunity to strengthen her own strength.

Since this operation has already caused some disturbances, as the secretary ship of the Xiguang Garrison, she must minimize the disturbances. For the sake of the port area and even more for the person who has been waiting for news of their victory, she must bring all the sisters back safely, instead of leaving them in such a mess like last time.

At this moment, Lexington's heart was extremely firm. She had never understood why so many ship girls went back to look for the admiral. Until now, she understood a little. Perhaps only when the ship girls really had a port area they wanted to protect, then, even the weakest destroyer would be extremely strong!

Lexington looked at Sigsby, who was still fighting even though he was hit. The courage in her heart at this moment burned like a flame.

She controlled seventy carrier-based aircraft and rushed to the northwest. Looking at the sea level in the distance, she swore secretly:

Commander, we will definitely carve victory on the horizon and bring you supreme glory!

Chapter 81: Sea Fang's Contribution

At the same time, Xiguang Island.

Li Ran was relaxing with Jilin at a resort on the island lake at this time. He wanted to relieve his anxiety by fishing, but he just couldn't calm down.

The air was a little stuffy and he felt very uncomfortable. He put away his fishing gear in annoyance.

"Killin, where are you?"

While Li Ran was fishing, Jilin felt bored and ran to a small wooden cabin where there were some storybooks that the destroyers usually brought.

Hearing Li Ran's call, Jilin quickly put down the storybook in his hand, closed the door of the cabin, ran out and asked:

"Admiral, I'm here, what's wrong?"

"Let's go, we should go back to the garrison and prepare lunch."

"Oh."

……

Back at the garrison, Jilin looked at Li Ran's absent-minded look and was a little worried: "Admiral, you are daydreaming again."

Li Ran was brought back to reality by Jilin's shout. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said:

"Ah, yes, maybe I didn't sleep well. What do you want to eat for lunch?"

Jilin tilted her head, then took Li Ran's hand and said coquettishly:

"Let's have grilled fish and drink some Coke. Let's go to the beach. No one is at the garrison anymore and I don't want to go back. Admiral, let's go to the beach for a barbecue. How about that?"

Li Ran was stunned. Yes, they all went out, and the garrison suddenly became deserted. Even if lunch was prepared, it was really hard to adapt to the lack of so many people. Jilin's words were a good idea, so he agreed:

"Well, then I'll listen to you. Let's go to the beach for a barbecue."

Keelin cheered and said:

"Yeah, Admiral, you're so nice. Admiral, please squat down for a moment."

Li Ran was a little surprised, but he still squatted down and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jilin didn't say anything, but kissed Li Ran on the cheek. She smiled and said:

"Admiral, you finally smiled."

Li Ran touched his cheek, feeling somewhat helpless and touched. He scratched Jilin's nose and said:

"You, come on, let's go to the beach for a barbecue and let you taste my chef Li's cooking skills."

"Admiral, don't all chefs have fat bellies?"

"Nonsense, many chefs have good figures."

"Oh, then Admiral, do you like cooking?"

Li Ran touched Jilin's golden hair and said with a sense of loss:

"Maybe. I like it very much."

"Admiral, you're lying."

"No."

"Hehe, I was kidding you. The Admiral didn't lie. Jilin knows it. It's just that the Admiral kept frowning, which is ugly."

“I’m not handsome.”

"No, the admiral is the most handsome, especially when he is working seriously."

Li Ran was stunned. He didn't think the little girl would say such a thing, so he pretended to ask casually:

"Who did you hear this from?"

"Sister Richelieu."

As soon as Jilin finished speaking, she realized that she had let the cat out of the bag. Her face became nervous and red. She quickly explained:

"Killin didn't say anything... Oops, I bit my tongue again."

Li Ran sighed. He looked at the nervous little boy and felt a little ridiculous. He quickly comforted him:

"I didn't hear anything, don't worry."

"Really?"

"Ah."

Jilin foolishly and naively repeated:

"Then you swear not to tell Sister Richelieu."

Li Ran tried to hold back his smile. He thought to himself, girl, you have already admitted it, haven't you? However, looking at Jilin's serious face, he pointed his finger and said:

"Hook."

Keeling immediately said:

"We made a pinky promise. Whoever cheats is a puppy."

"it is good."

……

Let us turn our attention back to the waters near Island C.

Brooklyn looked at the [Standard Anti-Aircraft Radar: Anti-Aircraft Correction 40%] and found two groups of carrier-based aircraft flying in front and behind. The difference was that the carrier-based aircraft flying in front of them were all yellow dots, which meant they were not enemies, while behind them were dangerous red dots that symbolized deep-sea carrier-based aircraft. She smiled bitterly:

"I have good news and bad news for you, which one do you want to hear?"

The raider was retrieving the carrier-based aircraft. She waved the flag in her hand, somewhat puzzled:

"Good news? Bad news? Brooklyn, just say whatever you want to say. Aren't you tired of talking like this?"

"Well, the good news is that a group of 70 carrier-based aircraft are approaching us. It should be the carrier-based aircraft sent by the ship girl you just met. The bad news is that there are 120 deep-sea carrier-based aircraft formations flying towards us behind us."

"There are enemies?" The attacker was stunned for a moment, then his face suddenly became serious, and then he said:

"Then what do we do?"

"Let's fight. I think the carrier-based aircraft in front of us should come to support us. However, the number of carrier-based aircraft on the other side is still too small. It seems that it depends on your performance."

"But I mostly use torpedo planes."

"Idiot, you've changed to Sea Fang, don't be reluctant to part with the aluminum. I estimate that a deep-sea carrier aircraft will reach our airspace in three minutes."

"Okay, okay, that's really troublesome." Although the attacker said this, she still waved her ship uniform that was like a flag, and then she straightened her proud chest and said in a vigorous tone:

"Take off, everyone is a good kid!"

A total of 40 [Sea Fangs] took off from her flag-like ship armored deck one after another, and formed a V-shaped attack formation that she was best at. Then she asked Brooklyn:

"It's time to report."

"4 deep-sea spiral fighters 80 nautical miles to the southeast, 2 deep-sea delta-wing torpedo planes 40 nautical miles to the southwest."

"Deep-sea light mother? It's the same as before. The battle formation is out of touch. Does the other side have any formation?"

"They are all moving in columns and columns at a very fast speed."

"Got it." When the attacker was fighting, her usual cute look was completely gone, and her face looked extremely serious.

Brooklyn knew that her friend had entered combat mode. She took a deep breath and adjusted the anti-aircraft gun that she had recently replaced [Anti-aircraft jet gun: Anti-aircraft correction 30%]. As a light cruiser girl, she has always been the escort ship of the light aircraft carrier girl Raider. The two of them usually cooperated like this. As long as the deep-sea fleet was not too large, the two of them could usually handle it.

Brooklyn had many years of combat experience, and seeing the number of the enemy's carrier-based aircraft, she could roughly guess that the incoming deep-sea fleet should be two fleets, with more than four light aircraft carriers. She adjusted the main gun of her ship's [U-country triple 6-inch gun]. Since she was a light cruiser, in addition to the [Standard Anti-aircraft Radar: Anti-aircraft Correction 40%] for reconnaissance, her main gun was responsible for dealing with medium-range enemies, and the anti-aircraft gun was responsible for air combat.

At this time, she was closely guarding the attacker who was concentrating on operating the carrier-based aircraft, and closely checking the warning information on the radar.

The attacker's face was extremely serious at this time. Although she was usually confused about many things, she was more serious than anyone else when it came to fighting. And because her armor was weak, someone had to be responsible for guarding her every time she fought. Over the years, she and Brooklyn had experienced a lot of artillery fire, and a deep tacit understanding had been formed between them.

The attacker was very confident in entrusting his safety to Brooklyn. She was in a very calm mood at the moment because she had confidence in her carrier-based aircraft children. Moreover, this was the [Sea Fang]. With a slight smile on her lips, she controlled 40 [Sea Fangs] in a V-shaped formation and rushed towards the group of deep-sea delta-wing torpedo planes rushing in front.

The biggest threat of torpedo planes is that they are responsible for anti-sea operations, not anti-aircraft operations. Except for high-level deep-sea light carriers that have a certain level of intelligence, the others just fight based on instinct. Formations do not exist for these low-level deep-sea light carriers, not to mention air coordination.

The attacker was already accustomed to this. She had encountered the deep-sea team led by the deep-sea light carrier several times. Without exception, the torpedo planes and fighters fought separately. This time, the deep-sea actually let the torpedo planes rush in the front, which made the attacker realize that opportunity is rare and will never come again.

Now that this batch of torpedo planes has been delivered to our doorstep, let the [Sea Fangs] unleash their terrifying combat power!

As expected, one minute after the Raiders, 40 Sea Fangs and 40 deep-sea delta-wing torpedo planes encountered them.

In the book "On the Seizure of Air Supremacy", which records the operation skills of aircraft carriers, the situation of fighters encountering torpedo planes in the air is described as follows:

Fighter planes have strong air-to-air combat capabilities. When they encounter torpedo planes in the air, 10 fighter planes can destroy more than 20 torpedo planes.

Therefore, if many ship girls are equipped with torpedo planes, they will generally avoid exposing them to enemy fighter planes. However, the deep-sea light carriers of this deep-sea fleet obviously do not have this common sense.

So, the 40 "Sea Fangs" were like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Before the 80 deep-sea propeller fighters arrived, they shot down all the 40 deep-sea delta-wing torpedo planes, and then flew away with an extremely arrogant tail flame.

Chapter 3: V Font Battle Sequence

Brooklyn was a little surprised when she saw her friend resolve the fight so quickly:
