Azur Lane: The Tragic Admiral’s Azur Life

Chapter 1018 Something Wrong with the Escort Fleet

Raids and rapid penetrations are what Yang Sikang’s fleet has always been very good at, and it is also one of their favorite fighting methods now.

Thanks to the modified ship equipment customized by Yang Sikang and sufficient training and exercises on weekdays, Yang Sikang's ship girls cooperated very well, and advancing under the fire of bombs and torpedoes has almost become a habit for Javelin and others.

This time was no exception. Except for Rodney and Nelson who were forced to board the Gu Diao due to speed issues, everyone else had completed their duties after arriving in position in advance.

The Siren's mass-produced ships were everywhere around, and the humanoid units kept approaching.

However, relying on their powerful firepower and tacit cooperation, the ship girls protected the Gu Diao and continued to drill deep into the enemy's territory.

The defense level here is not low, but when Yang Sikang's fleet finally broke through the enemy's encirclement, the combat effectiveness of the defenders here was only a few ship girls who were still resisting stubbornly, and a few mass-produced ships.

Most of the cargo ships have turned into wreckage on the sea, some are about to sink completely into the sea, and some are still mostly floating on the sea.

But the only ship protected in the center was the largest cargo ship that was the target, and people were visible coming and going on the ship.

When Yang Sikang's fleet appeared, the defending troops here were surprised at first, but then they were stunned.

Because they were surprised that what appeared before them was not a familiar royal ship, when the voices of George V and Awesome sounded in their communication channel, almost everyone calmed down.

"From now on, you will be protected by us. Immediately gather the wounded in one place and prepare to transport them to our ships for treatment. At the same time, count the personnel who can continue to fight and the ammunition reserves."

As soon as George V finished speaking, people started to get busy over there, and soon, a goddess of war with wounds all over her body came in front of George V.

"Thank you for your help, but we must protect this cargo ship carrying important supplies. Please..."

"My commander has already taken this into consideration. There is no need to worry about the firepower in terms of defense."

George V said this while looking to the side, and saw two ship girls approaching, one with a smile and the other with a sour face.

Although the atmosphere between the two was a bit subtle, Goddess Si Zhan was still greatly relieved to see the two sisters.

"Nelson, Rodney, indeed. In this case, we don't have to worry about the firepower problem."

“And us.”

Counterattack said lightly, while the reputation next to him said seriously:

"Please feel free to go and receive emergency maintenance first. We will take care of the safety issues here."

"okay."

The other side's war goddess accepted the reputation's words, greeted herself with a smile on Yang Sikang's fleet, and then went back briskly.

But don't be fooled by her nonchalant look. In fact, more than half of her ship's equipment has been destroyed, and her body is covered with blast wounds from artillery fire and torpedoes.

Both Akashi were obsessed with their research and couldn't extricate themselves, so the emergency treatment here was handed over to the Kitchen Goddess.

Fortunately, Yang Sikang's fleet still has Jarvis, Janus, Perseus and others who can help Vesta, but even so, the situation is still quite tight.

After all, Yang Sikang’s fleet now has to protect the personnel here and guard against attacks from multiple directions, and the cargo ship is too large and a very obvious target.

Fortunately, the enemy did not directly attack the freighter.

Unfortunately, not even the enemy attacked the freighter directly.

Fortunately, Yang Sikang's fleet is strong and has enough people. Even in such a battle situation, his fleet still has the numerical advantage compared to the original escort team.

"There's no end to the fighting. How's the Prince of Wales doing?"

Yang Sikang asked, and George V immediately replied:

"The situation in Wales is not much different from before. Although she said that she discovered the weakness of these Siren ships, I think it is 80% false."

"Well, that's to be expected. After all, there's something wrong with this cargo ship. Where are the injured?"

"They are being treated, but their condition is not right."

Unexpectedly, it was Perseus who spoke first, and she arrived on the command ship the next second.

"Open the door. I need to tell you face to face."

The door to the command room opened, and Perseus walked in, turning off the communication device.

"This group of people is very abnormal. Their desire to survive is very weak, and each of them is extremely obsessed with fighting those Sirens. Even if they are only given the minimum damage management, they will immediately want to join the battle again, even if their weapons and equipment have not been maintained yet."

"What do you think?"

Yang Sikang looked at Perseus seriously, and the latter said:

"This team probably knew that they might be in danger a long time ago. What they were protecting is now in our hands, so..."

"So they feel relaxed and free to commit suicide?"

Yang Sikang chuckled, but there was no smile in his eyes, which were cold.

After connecting to the communication channel, Yang Sikang said:

"Everyone, take note. Control any fools who want to fight. Bring all the survivors to the Prince of Wales. If they resist, disable them. We can pay for any damage."

"It's no use for you to do this. If they have that idea..."

“Their affairs are their own business, I just know that I am here to rescue them.

The target cargo was saved, but I don’t agree if they are allowed to die like this. Haha, I’m not a kind person, but I will be unhappy if they die in front of me.”

Yang Sikang said this on the public communication channel, so the people who heard it were not only his ship girls, but also the escorting ship girls.

Goddess Si Zhan, who was receiving treatment but was suddenly controlled, sighed helplessly and looked at the other self next to her.

"You don't have to stare at me so closely, do you?"

"Maybe, but this is the order of our commander, so please be considerate of me."

"Ha ha……"

"Where's your cat?"

"...I don't know. Maybe it fell into some ocean."

Goddess Si Zhan on Yang Sikang's side sighed slightly. A British shorthair poked its head out from beside her feet, sniffed a few times, and then looked up at Goddess Si Zhan in confusion.

The goddess of war raised her chin slightly, walked to the table, stepped lightly on the chair and jumped onto the table, came in front of the goddess of death, and looked at her with her head tilted.

"Meow~"

Goddess Si Zhan was stunned for a moment. After a moment, she stretched out her hand and carefully reached out to the cat in front of her.

The British shorthair did not dodge, but instead rubbed her palm actively.

Then, the goddess Si Zhan, who had seemed to be completely indifferent until just now, suddenly seemed to have all her strength drained away and became depressed.

Yang Sikang's Goddess of War put her hand on her shoulder, and Perseus, who had finished bandaging the wound, left the room.

"It's okay to be a little mad at yourself sometimes, right?"
