Azur Lane: The Tragic Admiral’s Azur Life

Chapter 1260: Ticonderoga's Trick

Yang Sikang had never specifically inquired about the situation at Mavis's home.

So until now he has no idea about the specific situation of Mavis's family, including how big her fleet is and who are the ship girls.

Most of the ship girls who came this time were those that Yang Sikang had met before, like Ticonderoga, and it was basically her who Yang Sikang dealt with.

Although this was partly because Ticonderoga favored his eldest daughter the most, it was also possible that there were considerations of controlling information.

Yang Sikang didn't care what the actual reason was. Although time was tight, he still easily prepared a feast for Ticonderoga and the others.

Of course, this is for Ticonderoga and the others.

For Yang Sikang, it was just a relatively formal and ordinary dinner.

After all, considering the size of his fleet, the dozen or so extra guests didn't actually increase the workload much.

He just cooked a few dishes himself out of courtesy.

But this is for him.

For Ticonderoga and the others, the level of the dinner hosted by Yang Sikang was simply unbelievable.

After all, although Mavis' parents came from different countries, one was from White Eagle and the other from Royal. It was hard to say which of the two had a higher level of catering. But if you traced it back to the root, White Eagle itself was also from Royal.

Apart from the huge amount of butter and sugar used, it is difficult to expect their cooking level to be high in other aspects. The so-called high-end can only be equated with marketing in Donghuang, a country with thousands of years of heritage.

But no matter what, the ultimate purpose of food is to eat it. In addition to filling the stomach and satisfying basic appetite, taste and texture are the most important. Only in occasions where more emphasis is placed on communication and the importance of food is only secondary, will food pay more attention to the so-called grade.

In Yang Sikang's fleet, because the ship girls come from different camps, everyone has different tastes, including people like Yuanchou who can eat spicy food, so there are always a lot of dishes and quantities in Yang Sikang's fleet.

There are relatively many dishes and absolutely large quantities of food, but even so, it is still an eye-opening and novel experience for Ticonderoga and her friends.

After all, in their own port area, although there are Donghuang people opening shops there, no one can meet the needs of their port area. And as everyone knows, Donghuang cuisine will be localized and improved when it goes abroad.

“It’s such a satisfying experience. If I hadn’t been so full, I would have wanted to keep eating.”

Ticonderoga said with emotion, and at this time there was another person next to her.

"It seems that today's dishes are to your liking? Haha, although the commander has made some special arrangements."

Shangri-La sat down next to Ticonderoga and handed her a bottle of acid cola with a thin layer of white frost on it. Ticonderoga gladly took it, took a big sip, and then let out a long sigh:

"Is that so? Well, come to think of it, after all, there are so many ships of the same class as mine in your fleet, and you probably already told your commander about my preferences a long time ago."

"No."

Shangri-La smiled and said:

"Our commander never asks these questions because he always knows something about each ship girl."

Ticonderoga was very interested in what Shangri-La said.

"Come to think of it, I've always heard that he knows every ship girl very well, but if you think about it, that shouldn't be possible, right? After all, the number of ship girls in your fleet is close to three digits now. Normally, it's quite troublesome to remember the basic information of so many people, let alone accurate to their personal preferences."

"But this is the fact. If you don't believe it, you can even go and verify it on the spot."

Shangri-La pushed up his glasses, smiled meaningfully and said:

"Of course, that's assuming you're not worried about people saying things you don't want others to know."

"What do I have to worry about?"

Ticonderoga curled his lips and stood up.

"I'll try it right now!"

As Ticonderoga said this, she walked straight towards Yang Sikang. However, halfway, Garden and Essex blocked her way.

"Oh, hello, Garden, Essex. What's up?"

Ticonderoga asked with great interest, but the garden said:

"Hehe~ You were chatting with Shangri-La just now, right? The commander had expected this, so he asked Essex and I to come find you."

Looking at the garden and Essex, Ticonderoga smiled:

"You've prepared in advance, and you gave the answer in advance? It's really interesting, but it should be okay to take this opportunity to formally ask for your advice, right?"

"No problem at all."

Essex looked at Ticonderoga seriously and said:

"We also want to see your strength as a ship of the same class, having lived in the frontline port area for many years."

"Well, let's do something more formal."

Ticonderoga raised her hand, and the ship girls who came with her quickly gathered together. Correspondingly, the Garden had also gathered the same number of ship girls with corresponding ship types.

A fair exercise.

Yang Sikang stood in a corner of the room, watching them go out in groups and walk towards the training ground, and shook his head helplessly.

"Memphis, you go too."

"Eh? But, this exercise..."

"Although Ticonderoga is casual, he is not the type to look for trouble. He came to our side in advance and directly sent the special ship to the designated location in the dock. Then he couldn't wait to actively promote the process in order to save time.

They have been preparing to do this for a long time, they just lack an excuse. So, go and help Shangri-La record the data of this exercise. It will be useful later. "

"Yes, I understand."

Memphis rushed over in earnest, and with her went the royal ship girls led by George V.

In addition to assisting with record keeping, they are also responsible for ensuring that the exercise site is not interfered with by the Sirens.

After Yang Sikang made these preparations, the Iron-Blooded Ship Girls did not go over to watch the exercise, but gathered on the ship in the dock and began to decorate their own rooms for this journey.

Yang Sikang came over here, saw this scene, and asked with a smile:

"Aren't you going to watch the drill?"

Frederick turned around and smiled:

"There is no point in watching a drill whose outcome is already determined. Although the enemy's quality is very high, we have an absolute advantage in every aspect.

The difference in the degree of understanding between the two sides of the enemy cannot be made up by ordinary combat experience. Moreover, we have the advantage in individual combat power. "

Frederick was well aware of the value of intelligence in combat.

Her view is that whoever understands more and masters more will be closer to victory.

And in this regard, after her previous understanding, she was very sure that no one could be stronger than her commander.

In her opinion, this exercise was a win from the very beginning.
