237 . Portrait of Battle 4
Neither soldier-kun nor the commandant I knew was here .
Its obvious, I guess .
I went to the headquarters building, but I guess if a full-scale sortie were issued, then naturally, the HQ would also co on the fleet flagship .
Im sure the other officers I t at that bar wouldve been dispatched too . Even if so remained at the base, theres no way they would tell sothing like the fleets action schedule or the sailing route to the little girl they t at a bar .
In the first place, I dont even know their nas or positions . So I cant think of a way to et them other than to et them at the bar by chance . And theres no way they would go out to drink while most of their colleagues went out on a sortie .
Umumumu
Alright, Ill have to usethatthod, I suppose
and so, thats the case . I would appreciate your assistance again (Mitsuha)
Gladly!!!
Right, its the sa old diplomat-san from a certain country .
And this ti
Navys airbase, I choose you!! (Mitsuha)
Right, this ti is the turn for a mariti patrol plane
This tis mission is to search for fleets in offshore waters .
So what I want this ti is cruising ti (not cruising range), search capability, multi-target plot, and so on . Thats why I chose the mariti patrol plane .
I have no plan to interfere, so anti-ship attack capability is not required .
Air-to-ship missiles are expensive, and besides, itd be overkill if we use that against sailboats
Anyway, unless its absolutely necessary for self-defense, theres no need to use sothing like that .
Besides, if I really want to interfere, it would be more convenient and cheaper to bring a patrol ship loaded with a 76mm rapid-fire gun and 20 or 30mm machine guns .
You dont need anti-ship missiles or large-caliber guns against wooden sailing ships, which can only launch a few lumps of irons a few miles away, after all .
The crew seems to be different from the last ti .
I thought it would be better to have the sa mbers, but it seems that there would be a dispute if its always the sa .
well, I get that, though . Everyone wants to go to another world, after all .
If the information ban were to be lifted in the future, they would be able to boast to their children and grandchildren .
Yeah, its definitely not weird if theres a competition for the seat to go to another world
And of course, the sa goes for the scholars .
So of them are the sa as last ti, but theyre probably very competent or influential people . But still, most are replaced by other people .
Lets hope that no one would think about doing strange things like the last ti . As expected, I will not tolerate the second ti . If that happens, I will cut off all my relationship with this country, of course .
Well then, lets go!
Thank you very much!! (Mitsuha)
Dismissed!
Yeah, it seems that it hasnt been a long ti since they left the port, so I could easily find Vanels fleet .
Ive also found Norals fleet relatively easily . Then I plotted each of their position and course speed and went back right away .
If this were the Earth, it wouldve been possible to make rough estimates of the enemys movent, but itd be aningless here .
The speed of advancent dramatically changes depending on the wind direction and the ocean current, after all . Also, theyre not heading straight for each other . In the first place, they dont even know where their opponents are, nor do they know what each other is doing
Anyway, theres still ti until they ca in contact with each other .
So I decided to co back again in a few days, but the scholars begged to stay as long as we had fuel, so I had no choice but to let the plane fly around the new continent to kill ti .
Everyone seed to be busy taking pictures and asurents .
Well, thanks to that, I have so more places to transfer added to my repository, so it was also good for .
Besides, I would feel bad if I borrowed the plane without returning the favor . Fuel, labor, maintenance, and various other costs are needed per flight, after all . I wonder if it costs at least several million yen for a single flight
Eh? Is it possible to bring a seaplane or a large helicopter next ti, you ask?
Ah, I guess you do want to land It would be a big harvest just by taking a sample of the seawater But, of course, bacteria and microbes will be excluded during transfer, you know
And so, a naval battle between Vanel and Noral is about to happen . Now, I have a proposal for the forr mbers of Vanel Kingdoms expeditionary fleet .
If Vanels fleet is in crisisthough, its your ho country you can never return to, but with the help of the goddess, do you want to take the opportunity to serve your country for one last ti?
If all goes well, there might be sothing good for your families there Of course, everyone here will also be paid for your service by our country (Mitsuha)
U
U? (Mitsuha)
Uoooooooooohh!!!
With this, a bunch of oni-sergeants who will be giving our new sailors so guidance were obtained .
As expected, theres no way a bunch of newcors who havent even practiced with live ammunition can enter a battlefield like a hero .
It seems that exquisite judgnt, such as the timing of the commands, the hulls movent due to the waves, and so on, will greatly affect the hit rate . Those are sothing that cant be learned unless youve been through and survived many battles .
well, the difficulties would be considerably lower this ti . Because I will be there too
But they need to be able to face any battle even without . Their next battle might be without .
This ti is like a tutorial in invincible mode .
This is not a ga world . Its not decided that youll always encounter a sli after you leave the starting village
And, when I went to the Rephilia Trade to check the state of Vanel Kingdoms populace
Im terribly sorry!! (Rephilia)
Rephilia suddenly lowered her head .
What in the world is going on (Mitsuha)
Starting from alcohol to high-quality foodstuffsall kinds of luxury items have been sold out without any restriction! Because of that, the sales plan went out of control (Rephilia)
Eh (Mitsuha)
Apparently, families, relatives, and friendsall sorts of people who are related to the crew were begging on their knees at the storefront . They seed to want to get sothing to savor while they spend the last mont with the crew before the sortie .
Rephilia is also a citizen of this country, so if she were to refuse them coldly, she might be accused of being unpatriotic .
Even butlers from noble families went as far as to lower their heads to a commoner shopkeeper . Although theyre not nobles themselves, it seems that it wouldve been unthinkable for soone representing a noble family to do sothing like that .
well, of course, theres no way Rephilia could resist it in such a case .
It cant be helped . Well you wont be blad! (Mitsuha)
It seems that she also broke the sales regulation and sold them to the noble families whove been banned too, but Im not a demon either . Ill overlook this much .
Of course, the people of this country would believe that their countrys fleet would co out as the victor . However, it doesnt an that everyone will be able to return from the battle unscathed .
[Enemys Grumman, 500 units . OurZeroFighters, 200 units . All enemy planes were shot down, zero damage on our side!], theres no such a thing in even in fictional war stories . No matter how advanced your equipnt is, no matter how much secret weapon you have, at least youd lose 70-80 planes . even then, it was considered a big victory .
In other words, no matter how big the victory is, there will be damage, and many people wouldnt be able to return . The odds of having a final farewell to soone they hold dear are by no ans low .
And of course, theres also the undeniable possibility of suffering a great defeat .
We will send replenishnts imdiately, so make a sales plan and send them to our custors as soon as possible!!
Since the fleet has already left the port, there would be no more custors like that .
we should be able to manage it sohow or another!
