Chapter 986 On the way back
On the crimson sea, a command ship flying the flag of the Azur Lane was moving quickly.
The command ship broke through the turbulent sea surface, divided the water, and splashed to both sides along the streamline of the hull.
"The series of battles is really tiring. This time I'm back at the front-line base for supplies and can finally take a breath." Hao said with a smile as he sat on a chair in the hall of the command ship.
"Haha, that's right, these days of going on strike every day remind me of the time when I first met the commander.
At that time, we would attack every day, especially when we worked with the commander for the birth of the monarch. " Guanghui smiled and looked at the monarch beside him, his eyes full of nostalgia.
"I am very grateful to the commander for giving me the meaning of existence, and thank him for giving me the opportunity to fight alongside you all." The monarch said. Although she is still not good at speaking as before, she will never question the meaning of her existence again.
For her, even if the whole world gave up on her, her commander would never give up on her.
"Senior Monarch is still the same. This time I can see the commander when I go back. Aren't you happy?" Albion asked puzzledly.
"Hehe, she's not unhappy, she's just not good at expressing herself." Guanghui laughed, "In fact, among us, I'm afraid no one wants to see the commander more than the monarch, right?"
"Hehe, but it doesn't include Guanghui." Hao laughed and said, "I know Guanghui wants to go back for supplies earlier this time, and even when the anti-aircraft firepower is sufficient, it still keeps launching carrier-based aircraft.
And among the few of us, Guanghui was the first to run out of supplies."
"Huh? Is it that obvious?" Guanghui covered his mouth in embarrassment.
"It's obvious. The enemy only has destroyers and battleships. Logically, they only need to launch torpedoes to attack, but the Tejas still launched a full fleet of aircraft.
For a battle-hardened person like you, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake, so there is only one result. Quickly consume your supplies and return to the fortress base with this excuse. "Ajax said while drinking black tea.
"Haha, it's not that serious. Maybe it's almost time for the secretary ship to be rotated. Next to Donghuang is our Royal Ship, and as the Royal Ship's first choice, it is you, Guanghui. And this is the commander's choice, so it is understandable that you are a little bit expectant and anxious." Hao said with a smile.
"Thank you Miss Hao for your understanding. To be honest, I have seldom been with Commander Xiang since the battle began. I used to be used to being together all the time, and I really hope that the current situation will pass soon." Guanghui said a little embarrassedly.
"Is this because Senior Glorious has followed the commander for a long time? I remember Senior Centaur told me that Senior Glorious has followed the commander since his first semester, and it was also the commander's first wedding ship. I envy Senior Glorious for having such beautiful memories with the commander, and the sincere feelings between the two of them." Albion said enviously.
"Indeed, the one among us who has followed the commander for the longest time should be Glory. And as far as I know, Glory is not a ship girl summoned by the commander, but she joined the commander's fleet as a fully trained ship girl." Hao laughed.
When Guanghui heard everyone talking about this, a happy glow appeared in his eyes.
"Yes, I have to thank the prince for all this." Guanghui paused, "Of course not the prince of our fleet, but the Prince of Wales of Donghuang Commander Academy.
It was because of her introduction that I was able to meet the Commander. To use Donghuang's words, she was also half the matchmaker between the Commander and me."
"Hehe, it's rare for me to sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk with Miss Glory like this. I was quite curious about Miss Glory's past life. Logically speaking, a great ship girl like you would have many commanders pursuing you, right? Why did you choose a commander?" Ajax asked with a gossipy look on his face.
With her question, others became interested, and even the monarch, who had been silent, looked at Guanghui.
After all, we rarely talk about such things in normal times. Now that the whole topic has come to this, I can explain some of the doubts I had before.
"Ala, do you really want to know?" Guanghui looked helplessly at the curious crowd, "If that's the case, then I'll give you a brief explanation. Anyway, we are still some distance away from the fortress base."
“That’s great!”
Seeing everyone's excitement, Guanghui smiled and shook his head, and slowly said, "If Mikasa and Prince of Wales from Donghuang Academy are the first batch of ship girls to awaken in this world, then I should be the second batch.
The battle at this time was not as fierce as at the beginning, but it was still very difficult. At that time, most of the time was spent fighting, and I didn't think about so many things. This was to gain more living space.
By the time I realized it, many years had passed. Most of the commanders who had fought with us at that time had chosen to retire, and the ones who made achievements were all rising stars. Of course, they also approached me, but I rejected them all.
Since she had always been fighting without the commander, she didn't think the commander was that important. Later, she stayed on the front line, completing missions with the free ship girls, and lived a free life.
During this time, I also met more and more ship girls who fought with the commander. Suddenly I realized that maybe that kind of life is not bad.
So gradually I also thought about finding a commander, but time was running out. At that time, my level was already very high, and my reputation was also very loud on the front line. Ordinary commanders did not dare to ask me for help, and powerful commanders no longer had to ask me for help. The situation at that time was very embarrassing. "
When he said this, Guanghui couldn't help but laugh, "Luckily, the Prince of Wales assigned me that mission, otherwise I would have missed the opportunity with the commander.
After all, the commander had originally said that his goal was always to go to the front line, but the plan could not keep up with the changes, and he developed too fast, so by the time he was able to go to the front line, he was already able to take charge on his own. "
"This is such an interesting story. Miss Shinano of the Sakura Empire has been talking about fate. I think Miss Glory and the Commander's meeting is also fate, right?
Without the previous efforts and the embarrassment at that time, there would be no meeting later." Ajax smiled.
"Yes, so I am very grateful for that experience and I also cherish that encounter." Guanghui's eyes were full of tenderness.
“I’m so envious!”
