Girls und War

When they arrived here, it was the time of fleet change.

The officers who had been traveling with them had finished their meal, said hello to them, and then went to various places on the aircraft carrier.

Soon, Major General Yanjie walked down from the island.

388. This is the food for the first-class people

When Major General Yanjie walked in front of the girls from the Red Dragon Squadron, the girls immediately stood up straight.

Just as Doragon was about to speak, Yanjie waved his hand and immediately said, "There's no need for such politeness when eating. Everyone, please go in."

So everyone went into the cafeteria obediently.

The officers on the battleship had come in before them and started their lunch as usual.

When I see a slightly rich dish, I will just say, "There's a snack today."

The logistics officer just stood nearby with a smile and replied, "Yeah, we had a good harvest today."

But the ingredients in front of them shocked the girls of the Red Dragon Squadron.

Seafood! Lots of seafood! Stunning seafood!

Grilled octopus! Fried shrimp! Tuna soup! Whole braised crab!

The army troops who had been eating coarse food all the way had never seen such a scene!

Will the logistics department provide special supply care to the naval aircraft carrier formations due to their special nature?

Obviously not.

Even if the proportion of officers is incredibly high, the value of the supplies they receive will not be more than that of the front-line combat troops.

These unexpected special meals for the navy were all caught by the girls on the ship by casting their own nets!

Some people may ask, is the work on the warship so idle that they still have time to fish?

Of course they are not idle.

Such a large aircraft carrier has only more than a hundred commanding officers, who have to work in shifts 24 hours a day. It is common for them to be so busy day and night that their biological clocks are disrupted.

But isn’t it useful to have a tool that works overtime and tirelessly for 24 hours a day, all year round?

More than 2,000 tool personnel are in place, which is obviously oversaturated for an aircraft carrier.

Then shouldn’t we let them go out to sea to fish on speedboats?

The girls from the Red Dragon Squadron were arranged to sit at the long table in the middle. Each of them received a luxurious seafood lunch for one person prepared for them by the staff in front of the dining car.

Major General Kenjie sat with them, right next to Doragon and Natsuki, making them both feel uncomfortable.

The major general seemed unaware and chatted with the two of them while watching the girls eat heartily.

"When it comes to combat, food is quite important. If the quality of food improves, everyone's morale will be much stronger." Yanjie said to Doragon with a smile.

Doragon smiled and nodded, the crab claws in his mouth tasted like chewing wax.

"Compared to the food in the Navy, it's still better than the Army's. To be honest, I also served in the front lines for a while," she continued. "Back then, I was a deputy captain, but after only a few days, I was killed by a stray bullet. Really bad luck."

"So you were assigned to the navy later?" Xia Shu asked cooperatively.

"No, I started out as an Air Force ground crew member, traveling around with a group of frontline fighters. Later, I was assigned to an aircraft carrier, and then I simply switched to the Navy." Yanjie's eyes gradually showed a nostalgic expression as he said, "Before I knew it, I had reached the rank of Major General. I guess in a few years, I will retire on the Holy Qilin."

The girls around them held crab legs in their mouths and immediately showed expressions of admiration on their faces.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about something else." Yanjie quickly put aside these sentimental emotions and asked Xia Shu, "Xia Shu, are you interested in developing a career in the Navy Department?"

Xia Shu gave an awkward smile. Before he could say anything, Emotion spoke up, "Xia Shu is still an original ace. It's obviously not appropriate for her to join the navy, right?"

Doragon also nodded hurriedly.

"I know, I know." Yanjie smiled calmly, "What I mean is, if you get eliminated in the future, you can come to us."

"Well... let's talk about it later." Xia Shu tore the squid slices and gave a fake business smile.

Yanjie said helplessly, "Don't think I started recruiting so early. The main reason is that several combat units are seriously short of people. The Air Force and Logistics, like our Navy Department, are constantly scrambling for people. Sometimes, the General Recruitment Department will come to reserve new recruits as soon as they join the army. I have no choice."

"If we are eliminated on the battlefield, can we come to your side?" Xiao Zhao asked Yanjie.

Miss Major General nodded and replied decisively, "As long as you are willing to come, I will take as many as you want."

The girls all showed happy expressions.

Apart from anything else, the quality of the food alone will definitely attract a large number of people.

But what Yanjie cares about most is still Xia Shu.

She turned to Xia Shu and said very seriously, "It would be a great help if Xia Shu could consider us first after being eliminated."

Xia Shu couldn't help but think seriously about such an earnest request from such a major general.

She thought for a moment and said to Yanjie, "If I'm really eliminated in the future, I will definitely consider you first."

Upon hearing this, Yanjie immediately showed a satisfied expression.

Getting such a promise means that the Navy's aircraft carrier battle group will definitely have an additional powerful officer in the future.

Yes, although Natsuki is still a non-commissioned officer, everyone, including Kenji, firmly believes that she will become an officer in the future.

After finishing this luxurious lunch, the officers on the Holy Qilin dispersed.

They either continued their shifts or went to the rest area.

The girls of the Red Dragon Squadron returned to the deck again under the guidance of the tour guide officer.

The deck cleaning work is nearing completion at this time. The tools have completed the cleaning of the deck and are now carrying out the final rinse.

Tens of thousands of small sprinklers on the deck have all been turned on at this time, and a large amount of clean water is washing away the foam on the surface.

Many workers in protective clothing were walking inside, checking the working conditions of each nozzle.

The entire aircraft carrier was like a huge water park at this moment, with countless fountains spraying everything within their sight wet.

They even saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky above the Holy Qilin.

When the cleaning work was completed and all the nozzles stopped spraying water, the deck looked brand new and there was no stain at all.

At this time, the tool man hurried over with a broom and cleaned up the thin layer of water everywhere.

Seeing that the plane was almost ready for takeoff and landing, the officer on the deck immediately picked up the intercom and said, "The deck is ready, and we can take off."

After receiving the message, the air traffic control immediately gave orders to the hangar.

After a while, a fighter jet slowly landed on the side elevator, and was then slowly carried onto the deck by the elevator.

389. Take off——Fly——

The first aircraft sent onto the deck was the top-tier fighter jet they had seen before - the Wing Loong-99.

It seemed that because they had already conducted a routine inspection on this aircraft, the hangar crew did not want to waste time inspecting other aircraft again.

The fighter jet was pushed from the elevator on the deck to the take-off runway by a tug. The slightly wet runway surface did not affect the friction coefficient of the aircraft tire surface.

Natsuki heard a voice coming from the intercom and asked, "Do you need ejection assistance?"

The lady in deck control heard the noise, picked up the intercom, and immediately replied, "No thanks. The weather is good, no need to eject."

Then, we saw the tools park the plane in the designated take-off area.

They diligently performed various inspections on the aircraft, and the spoiler slowly rose.

Amid the buzzing sounds of various machines coming from nowhere, the fighter jet completed a series of preliminary preparations for takeoff.

The tour guide officer asked the girls to stand aside and line up at the edge of the aircraft carrier's deck.

After watching the controller give a thumbs-up to the cockpit and then extend two fingers to make a take-off gesture, the fighter jet roared and two imperceptible streams of hot air emerged from its tail.

The next moment, the plane flew across the deck like an arrow.

Amid the girls' exclamations, the fighter jet quickly turned into a tiny dot in the sky. It then circled halfway in the sky and flew off in the direction of Kurt.

The tools quickly scattered around and started preparations for the second round.

The second plane also slowly rose up from the elevator and was about to take off.

The officer called out to the girls and said, "Okay, come over here. Let's go to the island and take a look at the footage from the plane."

"Can you see it?" Xia Shu asked.

The officer smiled and said, "Of course, otherwise do you think we can really fight with tools?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Shu immediately fell into deep thought.

Afterwards, the girls were taken back to the island and soon arrived at the aerial surveillance area.

There is a large row of visual equipment in the monitoring area, and several officers are sitting in their seats, broadcasting to the monitoring screens.

The two monitors in the front were broadcasting images of two planes taking off.

Xia Shu saw that multiple cameras on the plane appeared on the monitor screen. If you exclude the tool man wearing a helmet in the lens, it feels like the monitor is flying the plane.

It makes sense that the tool people's mastery of military equipment is just like AI equipment, at the level of being able to fully utilize the performance of the equipment.

They may be able to execute orders well, but it is obviously impossible for them to make battlefield judgments or respond to orders.

If you give a fighter plane a command like "Describe the battlefield situation," the only response you'll get is a "grunt grunt" sound.

What else could he do? Make it send out a series of "beep, beep, dah, dah" in Morse code?

The behavior of tools allows them to only accept and execute orders.

It's not that they can't learn to hold a gun, or how to fight with military equipment.

Their problem is that they are unable to think independently.

If they were put on the battlefield, in most cases they would not be able to distinguish friend from foe.

The more complex the battlefield is, and the more quickly a judgment needs to be made, the more foolish their performance will be.

This is also the reason why, although tools are so suitable to be cannon fodder, the most basic battlefield infantry is still a girl soldier.

After the girls entered the monitoring area, they quickly gathered in front of the large flight screen.

At this moment, they saw the plane on the deck ready to take off.

Under the instructions of the deck controller, the tool man made the judgment that it was time to take off.

It quickly pushed the throttle, and the scene on the fighter's camera quickly moved backward. With a "whoosh", the plane flew past the window of the island.

The girls watched the flight scenes on the camera intently, imagining themselves sitting in the plane and flying in the blue sky.

The fighter jet flew at an extremely fast speed. It took only a few minutes to complete the entire journey that took dozens of minutes to come here.

The fighter plane did not slow down afterwards, and under the command of the monitor, the plane quickly flew to the Two Rivers area.

"Lower altitude and fly along the east coast." The monitor said into the microphone.

A "gurgling" sound came from the loudspeaker, and the plane quickly descended to a height where the river bank could be seen clearly.

They looked intently at every corner of the river bank, searching for something that might exist.

"What are you looking for?" Doragon asked the tour guide officer.

Without taking his eyes off the screen, the officer turned his head and replied to Doragon, "The patrol on the riverbank spotted a small group of suspected enemy forces. We're not sure if the Iron Zone is planning an attack. So, we've been asked to investigate the Iron Zone's movements."

Doragon smiled upon hearing this and said to himself, "What can they do? What else can they do?"

Putting aside the question of whether the Iron Zone had any intention of fighting, the fighter planes found nothing near the river bank.

There are only occasional green vegetation and large areas of loess.

The monitor quickly spoke into the microphone again, "Stay to the west side of the riverbank and fly with caution."

Upon receiving the order, the tool man immediately changed his flying posture and moved slightly to the west.

It was flying at a considerable distance, as if on guard against surface-to-air missiles in the iron zone.

Although this fighter jet is stealth and cannot be detected by radar, it is not impossible to observe it with the naked eye and then shoot it down with a heat-seeking missile.

After the fighter jets approached the garrison area in the iron zone, they soon caused a commotion.
