322 Submarines used as transport ships
Originally, Li Yan planned to return directly to the branch.
After all, the sooner you give Levin the technical information you have, the sooner you can build an airplane, right?
However, I can't leave just yet.
Seeing this small half of the town turned into a desert, Li Yan also had a headache.
As a last resort, Li Yan called Connell, the branch chief here, and told him about the statistics of civilian losses and the reconstruction work of the town.
As for expenses, report them directly to the 18th branch and ask Karina for approval.
But after Cornell heard what Li Yan said, he hesitated to speak.
Well, as the governor of the East China Sea, Li Yan immediately understood what he wanted to say.
"Don't worry, I will talk to Karina and ask him not to get in your way on this matter!"
"However, I can give you the green light, but if you dare to put this allocation into your own pocket, even if it is 1 Bailey..."
Li Yan did not continue, but how could Cornell not know what his general was talking about?
Even if you made a promise to Li Yan, that would never happen.
Li Yan then explained that before the reconstruction work is completed, the 17th branch must take responsibility and arrange for the civilians who have no place to live on the island.
If there is really not enough living space, the branch sailors will go to the warship to squeeze in and make room for the sailors' dormitories.
In short, I don’t want to hear that any civilian has no place to live...
This kind of thing came to my own ears.
Finally, after confirming that nothing was missed, Li Yan returned with his people.

BLU BRU BRU...
Not long after the fleet set sail, Li Yan's phone started ringing.
"I'm Li Yan!"
"Li Yan, I am Warring States. You should be here by the time. How is the situation?"
"Matt Bruns held civilians on the island hostage and sent out seventeen branches to attack, causing many people to be seriously injured, so..."
"If you die, just die. The key is Hawkeye?"
Good guy, before Li Yan could finish speaking, Warring States interrupted him.
And these words don't sound like they were spoken by the Warring States Period.
In the past, the Warring States Period would only tell Li Yan to go and kill the killer.
But today, for the first time, he said, "Just die"?
And his tone sounded like he didn't care.
However, Li Yan could guess some reasons. After all, the Warring States Period had said before that the original words from Wulaoxing were...
It's okay to just kill it directly.
Therefore, without the psychological burden of victory, it naturally doesn't matter.
"Hawkeye, he is currently locked up in a cell on my warship."
"What, you defeated Hawkeye?"
Hearing Li Yan's answer, Zhan Guo's eyes widened immediately.
"Actually, it's not a defeat!"
"How did you imprison him without defeating him?"
"I can't stop him if he wants to go in!"
"..."
What the hell, you want to crawl into the cell, and you can't stop it?
Is there something wrong with Hawkeye's head?
"Marshal, it's actually like this..."
Soon, Li Yan briefly explained what happened.
After listening to this, Warring States finally understood why Hawkeye took the initiative to stay in the cell.
Speaking of which, this really fits his behavior.
"Li Yan, you're almost done with Hawkeye, do you understand?"
"I understand Marshal, I will drive him away when the agreed day is up."
Yes, not letting him go, but driving him away!
However, there is nothing wrong with this. After the sparring session, Li Yan really didn't want to lock him up.

at the same time.
North Sea, Sertot Island, western waters.
Three warships belonging to Marigio and five naval warships formed a combined fleet and were galloping on the sea.
Since the last time Betty and Lindbergh caused trouble here to lure the enemy, all the troops originally searching for the revolutionary army in the South China Sea were transferred here by Wulaoxing.
However, just like in the South China Sea, after nearly ten days of searching, no trace of the revolutionary army could be found.
As for this combined fleet, it is one of many search fleets.
What they didn't know was that the revolutionary army was not far from them at this moment.
Thirty meters below the sea surface.
"Commander, this thing called a submarine is really easy to use. At such a close distance, they didn't notice our presence for several hours."
"It's perfect for covert transfers, whether it's transporting people or supplies..."
Hearing this, Lindbergh nodded in agreement.
Even...
He even had the idea of locating the Northern Army headquarters in a submarine and hiding it under the sea for many years.
If Li Yan knew these thoughts, he would definitely slap them in the face.
I gave you a war weapon, but you only want to use it for secret transfer?
Isn’t it a waste?
"By the way, Commander, this submarine also has weapons, and they can be used under the sea. We..."
"Would you like to try?"
The Northern Army staff officer on the side suddenly thought of something, and then asked.
Lindbergh frowned slightly.
Although the warships currently resting on the sea have not noticed themselves, once they attack...
"Commander, let's test one shot and then immediately dive to a depth of 300 meters. At this depth, even if the blue pheasant is here, there is nothing we can do."
Seeing Lindbergh's hesitation, the staff member persuaded him again.
After hearing this, Lindbergh thought, this is right, what is he afraid of underwater?
Moreover, as his subordinates said, they dive immediately after the attack. Not even Aoki Pheasant can reach a depth of 300 meters, let alone other navies.
It just so happens that we can also use this to understand whether the actual combat capabilities of submarines are as good as those in the East China Sea say?
"We have a few rounds so far...what is that thing called?"
"It's a cannonball called a torpedo, Commander!"
"Okay, torpedoes, how many are there in total?"
"Eight shots!"
"What, only eight rounds? What's the use of it?"
After hearing the staff officer's answer, Lindbergh immediately lost interest.
Take warships as an example. Usually a large warship is equipped with at least hundreds of bombs.
And what can these eight be used for?
However, submarines are not used for fighting!
"Commander...then we still need to launch?"
"Launch, why not launch, but dive immediately after the launch, do you understand?"
"Yes, Commander!"
Soon, the entire bridge of the submarine became busy.
However, they were not busy attacking. Instead, they were holding thick operating instructions and reading them.
There is no way, this has never been done in practice, and everyone has no experience.
So, it’s better to read the instructions again, lest you don’t blow up the enemy for a while, you blow yourself up first, right?
Fortunately, the control technology of this submarine mainly comes from Trafalgar Law, and its operation method is basically understandable to people in this world.
At the same time, when French finally designed this submarine, he simplified its control method again.
But, even so.
Chapter completed!
