Azur Lane, I really didn’t lose my memory!

Shinjo Akane, who was about to go to the exercise, covered her mouth and laughed, "Commander, if you want to date Miss Voroshilov, just say so directly. Why let Lafite go to the battle?"

"I don't want to lose on purpose, it's just that some of my playing methods need to be confirmed with Lafite." Lu Xiuyuan explained.

Well, actually I just want to lose.

But it's also true that I want to test some things.

For example, is it possible to use the improved boiler to reduce the starting speed and cooperate with a highly maneuverable ship like Laffey to achieve friction before and after the catapult start to achieve the purpose of avoiding artillery shells?

Lu Xiuyuan squatted down, leaned close to Lafei's ear and whispered: "Lafei, if you do this again later..."

Soon, under the guidance of Lu Xiuyuan, Lafite changed his equipment to Sea Soul camouflage and improved boiler.

Voroshilov, who was standing by the sea enjoying the breeze, saw that the commander had discussed for a long time and finally chose Rafi to exercise with her. She suddenly felt that she was being underestimated.

There were so many people, but he chose the only destroyer.

It's not that Lafite is weak. As the commander's initial ship and the star of the port, Lafite's strength is obvious to all. Although this kid looks drowsy at ordinary times, he is never vague in battle.

But just as a battleship can make many mistakes against a light cruiser, the light cruiser cannot afford to make even a single mistake.

Light cruisers often have the upper hand when fighting destroyers.

But Voroshilov changed his mind and specially selected the only destroyer to practice with him...Does the commander really want to lose? Or...does he really want to get along with him?

Thinking of this, the girl felt much happier.

Soon after, Rafi and Voroshilov sailed to the two ends of the sea respectively.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, two people wearing sea soul camouflage gradually merged with the sea level environment until they disappeared.

This made Lu Xiuyuan very difficult, as he still had mortal eyesight. At the beginning he could barely tell them apart, but as the distance got farther and farther, even though Baltimore thoughtfully found him a telescope, he was unable to find any trace of the two people in his field of vision.

"Um...you guys can still see?"

Lu Xiuyuan couldn't see anything at all, so he put down the telescope and turned to ask the girls around him. The girls were concentrating on looking at the sea level in the distance, and they seemed to be able to see it.

"At this distance, we can't see the commander with our naked eyes, but Rafi has been reporting his position via radio, so we can know where Rafi is even if we can't see him."

"Oh, I see. Now I want to see what I can do."

"Well... we can only wait for you, Commander, to board the ship and receive radio information to locate it like us, or... or you can wait for Lafite to open fire..."

155-Cannon and Mine Attack

In the middle of the exercise area.

The red buoys form a large red circle with an upward-protruding underwater hill as the center.

That is the point that needs to be occupied on the training ground.

Since the exercise is conducted in a large sea area and everyone is equipped with Sea Soul camouflage, if the only condition for winning is to completely annihilate the enemy fleet, it is easy for Lao Liu to hide in the corner and delay time.

Therefore, a new point occupation mode has been added to the training ground.

As long as our ship stays at the point for one minute without being interfered by the enemy, the point will be judged as occupied by our side by the referee. Then, as long as the occupied point is not reoccupied by the enemy, it will automatically increase our score as time goes by.

The first team to reach one thousand points is the winner of the game.

Of course, occupying points is not the only way to gain points. When an enemy ship is sunk or your own ship is sunk, the corresponding points will be increased or decreased.

The small Laffite calmly and coolly sailed on the sea in its sea soul camouflage.

As a veteran among the veterans in the port area, Lafite has rich experience in both combat and exercises, and is quite knowledgeable about the point capture mode.

For example, compared with sister Voroshilov, who is a cruiser, my speed is undoubtedly faster, and at the same distance, I will definitely be the first to touch the point.

In order to prevent herself from occupying the point, Sister Voroshilov had to rush to the point at the fastest speed.

Combining the point location with the last place where Voroshilov's sister disappeared, it is not difficult to infer the direction of Voroshilov's sister at this moment.

Soon, just as Rafi had expected, she was the first to enter the position.

Manjiu, who was standing on the reef and acting as the referee, raised the flag and started counting, which indicated that Lafite was occupying the point.

Immediately afterwards, Lafite, which sailed to the edge of the point, did not choose to go deeper into the center of the point, but suddenly made a big turn backward, facing the center of the point, and at the same time began to slow down, slowly turning the barrel of the ship's gun to the direction behind it.

Baltimore, who was standing on the shore, received Lafite's radio message and was surprised: "Strange... Why didn't Lafite go to Kashan, but instead the big bogie was at the edge of the point, ready to engage the gun at any time?"

As a veteran in the port area, although not as old as Lafite, Baltimore can also be considered experienced.

Baltimore knew that if a destroyer wanted to defeat a light cruiser, it was generally not advisable to fight with artillery, even if you were a gun-driven destroyer.

Not only do Voroshilov have more tubes than you, but they are also thicker than yours. The chance of winning in a head-on firepower battle is close to zero.

Therefore, the best way is to find a way to use the destroyer's powerful torpedo weapon to destroy the light cruiser in one round.

However, although the torpedo has great destructive power, it needs distance to surface and is easily discovered by the enemy. The hit rate will be worrying if the distance is a little far. What's more, the Voroshilov on the opposite side has hydroacoustic equipment, which makes it even more impossible for Lafite's torpedo to successfully hit Voroshilov at medium and long distances.

Therefore, the only way at present is for Lafite to use its speed advantage to sail to the submarine mountain position in the center of the point first, and then use the maneuverability of the destroyer and Voroshilov's "Qin Wang Circling the Pillar", and then find an opportunity to lay mines.

Anyway, in the end, either Voroshilov killed Lafite with a salvo, or Lafite took Voroshilov away with a wave of torpedoes.

But now, Laffite actually gave up his advantageous play and prepared to go for a cannon? This puzzled Baltimore.

"It was me who told Lafite to fight like this." Lu Xiuyuan held the telescope in both hands, trying to find Lafite with his naked eyes.

"Ah...why are you hitting me like that?"

"I just want to verify some of my guesses." Lu Xiuyuan put down the telescope. "Even if I lose, I can still get the venue. At worst... at worst, I can just put up with it and date Voroshilov."

"Commander, the last sentence is your real purpose, right?" Xin Tiao Qian interjected at an inappropriate time.

Lu Xiuyuan smiled slightly without answering, then raised the telescope and looked at the sea.

Baltimore's lips moved, and he was about to say something when a wireless message came in.

The girl said with a serious expression: "Rafi found Voroshilov's location."

..........

...........

Lafite maintained a low speed and stuck at the edge of the point.

At this moment, the little girl keenly noticed that the space near the underwater mountain at the center of the point was strangely "distorted". When the space was distorted, white ripples began to appear in the sea water below the space.

Rafi immediately realized that it was Sister Voroshilov!

The little girl was experienced and calm, and her own position had not yet been exposed.

She first accelerated slowly, then roughly determined Sister Voroshilov's direction and speed based on the direction of the "space distortion", and quickly fired a wave of prediction mines in the direction of the opponent's advance.

Then the sound of cannons rang out, and Lafite fired directly at the location where the space was distorted!

Lafite's gunnery skills were very good. Except for the first shot that missed the target due to testing the position, the other three shots from the four 138.6mm single-mounted guns all hit Voroshilov's ship equipment.

The harmless fireworks exploded and the streamers fluttered.

Then Lafite suddenly and abnormally began to turn inward!

While getting a better shooting angle, you will also completely expose yourself to the enemy's gun barrel.

Baltimore on the shore was anxious: "Oh, why did Lafite fire first? The intention of a combined artillery and mine attack is too obvious. Voroshilov is unlikely to fall for this, not to mention that Voroshilov has water ears!"

Although the exercises in KanColle have many similarities with those in WoWoShit, there are still some differences. For example, in WoWoShit, the radar and hydrophone equipment of the warships are consumables, and there is a concept of consumable CD.

But in reality, there is no such thing as consumable CDs for ship girls. Voroshilov’s water obedience has been in the on state since the beginning of the exercise!

Voroshilov, who was hit by Lafite, was also a little surprised that Lafite would take the initiative to fire at him and even gave him a large angle?

However, Voroshilov is a full-level ship girl after all, and her combat experience is no less than that of Laffey.

Even without Shuiting's help, based on these abnormal points alone, the girl could guess that Lafite was deliberately trying to give her an angle to induce her to turn to borrow the mines, so as to achieve the goal of a combined artillery and mine attack.

"It's a courageous act to take the initiative to fire at me, but it's not enough!"

The thunder that Rafi threw out slipped past Voroshilov.

After the shot was fired, the fire from the barrel exposed Lafite's position. At this moment, the Sea Soul camouflage of both sides temporarily lost its effect.

Voroshilov simply waved his hand and put away the Sea Soul camouflage. Then the triple-mounted 180mm naval gun began to rotate, and the black gun was aimed at Lafite who was still stuck in the position several kilometers away.

Lu Xiuyuan was holding the telescope and paying close attention to the battlefield situation. Whether he could eject and start the fight depended on now!

156-Real hamburger?

Voroshilov had rich combat experience, and she had encountered enemies who used sudden stops and slowed down to avoid artillery fire.

When she saw that Laffey did not maintain the high speed that the destroyer was proud of, she became cautious and did not fire too much in advance.

Except for five of the nine 180mm shells that hit the sea next to Lafite and became near misses, the other four all hit Lafite's small body.

Rafi covered his mouth with his hands and coughed twice.

The little girl's tiny body was covered with colored ribbons from the fireworks. Although there was no substantial damage from being hit by the fireworks, the smell of gunpowder when the fireworks exploded was still a bit pungent.

Rafi thought, if what was used now were not harmless fireworks but real bullets, then she would at least be in a slightly broken state now, right?

While he was distracted, Voroshilov finished reloading and a new round of salvos came again.

Lafite was maintaining a decelerating state, and her speed was close to zero. She quickly changed to acceleration, using the improved boiler to increase the starting efficiency and catapult start!

Unfortunately, this time he was still a beat too slow, and three more shells hit Lafite!

Rafi was not to be outdone and immediately fired back! Fierce artillery fire was fired at Voroshilov, and the shells seemed to be free and unleashed fire.

Then, the two sides began to engage in an exchange of artillery fire. Although Lafite tried his best to dodge a large number of shells by using acceleration and deceleration, Voroshilov's artillery skills were quite good, and the shells he fired were very accurate. More than one-third of the shells hit Lafite directly.

Lafite's counterattack was even more fierce. The firing rate of the destroyer's guns was much faster than that of the cruiser, and the shells rained down on the Voroshilov Shenzhen.

However, the caliber of the destroyer's guns was small, and the damage caused by each hit of Lafite was not high.

"Sure enough...the outcome has been decided."

Baltimore, standing on the shore, saw the battle situation on the training ground and was almost able to make the final decision.

According to the current situation, in one minute at most, when the durability of Voroshilov's ship equipment drops to half, Lafite will be declared "sunk."

There is no way, this is what happens when a destroyer and a fire cruiser engage in a gun battle.

Lu Xiuyuan calmly watched the situation on the training ground with the help of a telescope. He didn't care about winning or losing, he just wanted to test whether the catapult start was feasible.

Judging from the current situation, the launch control should be feasible. It just needs more practice and polish.

"Baltimore." Lu Xiuyuan put down the telescope and turned to look at Baltimore:

"Use the radio to contact Rafi and have her avoid Voroshilov's next round of artillery fire. Take advantage of the gap when Voroshilov is reloading to create smoke. Then, with the cover of the smoke screen, distance yourself from Voroshilov and continue the artillery battle!"

Lu Xiuyuan had good observation skills and he keenly realized that there were many reasons why Lafite could not make good use of the catapult start to avoid the shells.

For example, it is due to lack of familiarity with acceleration and deceleration. For example, the initial velocity of the Voroshilov's triple-mounted 180mm naval gun shells is fast and the trajectory is straight and difficult to dodge.

But the main reason is that the distance between the two is not far enough, and the shell flies in the air for too short a time, which leads to insufficient reaction time for Lafite. The ejection start is always half a beat slower than the shell, and then one step slower and one step slower. If you want to change this situation, you must maintain enough distance to give Lafite time to react to the landing point of Voroshilov's shell.

After receiving the wireless message from Baltimore, Lafite immediately carried out Lu Xiuyuan's order and quickly set up a smoke screen after cutting inside.

On the sea, a vast expanse of white smoke rose up from where Lafite was, covering up Lafite's figure.

Under the influence of the smoke screen, both sides lost their targets at the same time, and Voroshilov's artillery bombardment was temporarily stopped.

However, just as Lafite took out the Sea Soul Camouflage again and put it on, preparing to use the Sea Soul Camouflage to hide his body again and keep some distance.

Voroshilov fired again, and wave after wave of shells hit Lafite in the smoke.

Some shells hit Rafi's side and splashed high columns of water, but more shells hit Rafi himself!

"It's a radar!" Baltimore exclaimed in surprise, "Voroshilov has equipped the SG radar in the equipment column!"

Voroshilov's ship equipment does not have a built-in radar. There are only two ways to obtain a radar. One is to modify the ship equipment, which is the modification in the game.

Another option is to equip the radar yourself in a replaceable equipment slot, but this means sacrificing an equipment slot position.

"Then send it." Lu Xiuyuan said.

Once the radar is turned on, Voroshilov can roughly know the location of Lafite through the information fed back by the radar. Then he just needs to fire at that location with blind smoke. Although there may be some errors, the location fed back by the radar is often almost accurate.

In this battle, Voroshilov was well prepared. In order to deal with the destroyer's smoke screen, he gave up maneuvering and replaced the high-performance steering gear with SG radar. It can be said that he did enough homework to win.

On the other hand, Lu Xiuyuan's play was more for the purpose of experimenting with new tactics, and he was not aiming to win.

One is for winning, the other is not for winning, and the result of the exercise has long been obvious.

After the exercise, Rafi returned to the shore with his shoulders drooped and a slightly depressed expression:

"Commander, Sister Voroshilov is very strong. Rafi... lost..."

Lu Xiuyuan walked up to the little girl, squatted down, and touched her head:
