After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

Maybe because he didn't want to see his boss look so embarrassing, a young man in the first mate's costume stood aside, after pushing his glasses on the bridge of his nose, he said in a calm tone,

"I'm very sorry, Commander, I know you love this warship, but it's really inappropriate to use your wife to describe it. Please try not to say such things in public."

"Otherwise, whether it's His Majesty, the Grand Duchess, or your wife, they will be very angry."

"Huh~?" Hearing the reminder from his subordinates, Lord Francis, whose fantasy bubble was burst, squinted with disdain.

"This is just my personal hobby, but it's just a casual talk. Why would your majesty and the eldest daughter care about such a small matter?"

"As for that stinky bitch at home......"

"Oh, if she dares to have an opinion, I will not enter the house for half a month, let her guard the empty house, and feel the meaning of loneliness!"

At this moment, after listening to Lord Francis' majestic speech, the young first mate seemed to have heard some terrible words. He took a deep look at his boss's oily face, and then sighed softly. one breath,

"The courage of your Excellency, Commander, is really admirable, but I still want to advise you to pay attention to your words."

"I forgot to tell you that last night, Chris Harbor sent a message saying that this warship has been officially named."

"Unfortunately, the name [Blood Rose] proposed by you, Commander, did not get the support of the Grand Duchess. Now the real name of this battleship is the [Princess Hill], which is said to commemorate the relationship between the Grand Duchess and Hill. The friendship of the princess is also to take care of the face of the royal family, so......"

"If you continue to insist that this warship is your wife, then I'm afraid the consequences will not be as simple as being kicked out of the house and not being able to go home for half a month."

"Who... who was kicked out of the house?!" Regarding the first officer's "kind" reminder, when he heard the first half, Lord Francis, who realized the seriousness of the problem, still looked a little apprehensive. But after hearing the second half, he was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, his eyes widened suddenly,

"Roswell, how can you, kid, defile someone's innocence out of thin air?!"

"When did I get kicked out of the house?!"

"Isn't there?" Facing the sophistry of his boss, the first officer adjusted his glasses calmly, then nodded calmly and said,

"Well then, Your Excellency Commander, after I go back this time, I will tell your wife everything you said today, and I hope you won't come to my house again this time and ask for 'borrowing'."

At this moment, Lord Francis couldn't help but blushed for the first officer's disrespectful statement, and the veins on his forehead burst out, but the fleet commander still argued vigorously,

"Just say it, do you really think I'm afraid of that stinky woman? I used to let her go, and didn't care about it like a woman. The right of the head of the family has always been tightly held in my hands."

After one sentence of argument, there was a series of random thoughts such as "Obviously I left home voluntarily, so I was not kicked out of the house", "I am the head of the family", which attracted the surrounding officers who were working. There was laughter, and immediately, the command room of the ship was filled with joyful air.

Finally, as if he could no longer bear being laughed at by his subordinates, Lord Francis looked around fiercely, and said viciously,

"Shut up and be serious, don't you see that the war is still going on!"

After the words fell, Lord Francis, who was gnashing his teeth, turned his eyes to the culprit who made himself a joke.

"Roswell, report the battle damage immediately!"

Hearing that his boss suddenly started talking about business, the young first mate who was named immediately straightened his posture,

"As you order, Your Excellency Commander."

"Currently, all pirate ships have been destroyed and no one has escaped."

"In this campaign, a total of thirteen large three-masted warships of the enemy were eliminated. Our side consumed a total of sixteen [Lightning Blades] and lost one [Spotter]......."

"Wait!" Before Roswell could finish speaking, Lord Francis said with a painful expression on his face.

"Why did you lose [Investigator]? Isn't that thing flying?"

Facing the inquiry from his boss, the young first officer adjusted his glasses again, and then responded blankly,

"The specific reason is still uncertain, but I guess, it is likely that we were accidentally injured by our own attack. After all, the attack coordinates provided by the [Investigator] are not precise values, and in the case of using ourselves as the induced coordinates, it is easy to be attacked. It is normal to have losses due to our own attacks."

"Damn it, that thing is worth eighty gold coins..." After hearing the first mate's answer, Lord Francis frowned in confusion.

The so-called "spotter" is actually a small flying golem disguised as a seabird. Because there is no radar in the current era, in order to enhance the strength of the new warship, Katerina personally developed this flying golem, trying to replace the radar role.

But so far, the effect is not bad.

This kind of flying puppet has a flying radius of [-] nautical miles, and the remote monitoring magic on its body can delay the transmission of the screen to the battleship, allowing the commander of the battleship to generally monitor the dynamics within [-] nautical miles.

In addition, [Scout] can also be used as a guiding coordinate to guide the long-range bombardment of warships. Just now [Princess Hill] was able to hit the pirate fleet so accurately at a long distance, which is entirely due to [Scout].

However, [Spotter] is not a satellite radar after all, so it can barely give back a general coordinate to the battleship, and because it uses itself as the coordinate, it is very easy to be hit by the battleship's own attack and cause battle damage. ·

As the commander of the battleship [Princess Hill], it is difficult for Lord Francis to determine whether it is a loss or a profit to exchange the [Scout] for the pirate's three-masted battleship, because the difference in value between the two is not large.

The value of a three-masted battleship is only a hundred gold coins, and second-hand goods can lower the price even lower, while a [Scout] is far smaller than a three-masted battleship, but its price is as high as eighty gold coins !

Using these two to make a pair, Lord Francis thought that he would not be able to talk about making a profit at all, so he would lose money no matter what he thought.

Finally, after being tormented by the math problems involving equivalent exchange, he glanced at the group of "seabirds" hovering above the battleship, and Lord Francis waved his hand at his first mate in a disinterested manner.

"Okay, I understand the situation, now the battle is over, hurry up and call back all the [Investigators], this thing is too expensive, we can't afford to lose it."

"Also, Roswell, you are acting as the acting captain now, I'm going to rest for a while, and come to me after tracking down the next target."

After all, Lord Francis was about to leave the command room, but just as he lifted his foot, he was stopped by the adjutant behind him,

"Wait, Commander, you still have something to do!"

"According to the order of the Grand Duchess, we should now meet with the people on that merchant ship to show our presence, you......"

"Okay!" The next moment, the young first mate had finished speaking, and Lord Francis waved his hand carelessly,

"I am very clear about the order of the princess. You don't need to teach me, just do what I say."

At this point, seeing the embarrassment on his first mate's face, Lord Francis let out an angry "hehe",

"Roswell, you usually seem to be a very shrewd person, why do you forget to use your brain when it comes to orders?"

"Think about it for yourself, what is the real request of the princess? Is it for us to deal with those greedy businessmen?"

"No, what the Grand Duchess really needs is a deterrent! She wants us to show enough presence so that we can deter those who covet Chris Port, understand?"

"How does deterrence come from?"

"On the one hand, relying on our own strength makes people daunting, and on the other hand, we keep it mysterious so that people can't figure out our details."

"After fighting the pirates, our strength has been revealed, and the next step is to maintain a sense of mystery. If we really meet those businessmen, how can we remain mysterious?"

Speaking of this, Lord Francis glanced at his subordinates in retaliation, then hummed softly with his head held high,

"Hmph, I don't understand such a simple truth. I thought you were already capable of being on your own, but now it seems that you are still too young~"

After all, the commander of the battleship was like a rooster who had won a fight. He walked out of the command room with his head held high and his chest held high, leaving the young first officer behind... .........

..........................................

A month later, Chris Port, which almost fell into the abyss again due to the withdrawal of the empire, regained its prosperity. This time, when the residents of Chris looked at the visitors from the outside world, they generally showed a trace of unexplainable confidence on their faces. .

For the changes of the residents of Chris, most of the outside visitors also take it for granted. After all, the fact that the Chris Navy owns a "magic" warship has already spread throughout the world along with the wailing of the pirates before they died.

The appearance of the battleship named "Princess Hill" has changed too many things. The most direct manifestation is that the residents of Chris have become more confident, and there have been more businessmen coming and going at the port.

In addition to the changes in Chris Port itself, the outside world is also turbulent because of the appearance of this battleship. All forces in the world have different attitudes towards the appearance of this magical battleship, but in any case , because of the appearance of this magical battleship, today's Chris Harbor can always gain more respect when dealing with the outside world.

As for why the appearance of a warship will produce such a big change?

The reason is very simple, because the strength of the [Princess Hill] is too strong and the record is too prominent, the power structure of the entire ocean has changed.

In the past, the sea structure was basically dominated by the Navy of the Kingdom of Burros, and only the Imperial Navy could barely compete with it. But now, this situation has changed greatly...... ....

There is a well-known secret in the ocean, that is, the pirate king Kahneman is actually a dog raised by the Burros Kingdom, and his attitude is essentially the attitude of the Burros Kingdom. When killing the pirate king Kahneman's subordinates, he was essentially slapping the Burros Kingdom in the face.

For a country, especially for an ambitious big country, face is still quite important. If others are allowed to slap their face wantonly, the dignity of the country will be wiped out.

According to normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for the Burros Kingdom to sit back and watch someone slap itself in the face. After the face-slapping incident, the Burros Navy must wipe out the source of everything to wash away its shame.

However, the reality is that no matter what the Burros Kingdom does, Chris's magical battleship is still biting the pirate king Kahneman's forces like a mad dog on the ocean, and sometimes even kills those who pretend to be pirates. The navy of the Burros Kingdom was wiped out together.

The direct consequence of this situation is that the influence of the Burros Kingdom on the ocean has dropped rapidly, and under the ebb and flow, the influence of Chris Harbor has begun to rise in a straight line.

At present, because of the failure of the Burros Kingdom's response, the outside world has generally regarded the Chris Navy as a newly emerging powerful force on the ocean.In many people's minds, the former dominance of the ocean has become the current situation where the Kingdom of Chris and Burros are divided into two.

Under such circumstances, Chris Port's political status in the world has naturally been abnormally increased by a large margin.

For the current situation, different people have different views, and as the source of all these changes, Katerina herself is not complacent at all, but maintains a high degree of vigilance against the current situation...... …

Chapter 110 107. War Consensus

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Katerina is very clear that the current comprehensive power of Chris Port does not match its own political status at all. Compared with the Burros Kingdom Navy, which has more than a thousand warships under its command, the total number of ships of the Chris Navy is even smaller. It's less than eighty, and because of the heavy damage at the hands of the Pirate King before, most of the fleet's warships are not in good condition, and the only one that can really be relied on is the [Princess Hill].

In such a case, blind arrogance must invite destruction.

However, the girl will not underestimate herself because of this, after all...... [Princess Hill] is really powerful, and it is so powerful that no one can beat it!

In the current era, all the sea fleets in the entire world, even the best warships, are just three-masted sailing ships powered by sails.

In addition, the long-range weapons used by the navies of various countries are very backward. Basically, there are only large crossbows, trebuchets and kerosene. Most of the time, these weapons can only play an auxiliary role in the confrontation between sea forces and truly determine the outcome of the war. Still have to rely on jumping to fight.

On the other hand, the [Princess Hill], the various attributes of this battleship, even in the second Blue Star War in the girl's previous life, can still lead the way.

Think about it, in this era when there is no artillery, long-distance attack can only rely on crossbows and trebuchets, and the final decision can only be made by jumping gang battles, a ship powered by steam, with a maximum speed of 35 knots, a What does it mean to have a steel battleship with a steel structure, a three-inch-thick main armor belt, precision long-range strike firepower, and a degraded area awareness system?

Means invincible!

When technology is one generation ahead, war becomes a massacre, and the [Princess Hill] is many generations ahead of the world's mainstream warships. Its existence has already posed a dimensionality reduction blow to the navies of all countries in the world.

It is no exaggeration to say that if supply and environmental factors are not considered, even if the world's navies are tied together, the [Princess Hill] will surely win the final victory.

It is precisely because of such a BUG warship in hand, even though the Chris Navy is completely incomparable with the Burros Kingdom Navy in terms of the number of warships, Katerina still has enough confidence to deal with challenges from the outside world .

However, Katerina is very clear in her heart that although the [Princess Hill] is powerful, it is not unsolvable. It is true that relying on the strength of the [Princess Hill] alone can be fierce for a while, but it is not a long-term solution after all. What's more, there is a certain imperial crown prince watching.

If you want Chris Port to prosper for a long time, Katerina, as the ruler, must take a long-term view and make a deeper strategic plan......

"Everyone, the [Princess Hill] has just sent back the news that the last direct force under the Pirate King Kahneman - the Black Ze Pirates, has been completely wiped out by Lord Francis in the waters off the west coast of Rozeddo. ……”

At this moment, when the outside world is turbulent due to the appearance of the [Princess Hill], at the headquarters of Chris [Company], Katerina is holding a meeting.At this time, almost all the major shareholders who hold the right to speak in [the company] are present. Obviously, this meeting is very important.

"Excuse me, who still has different opinions on [the company's] marine strategy adjustment?"

After glancing at the [company] shareholders with different expressions in front of her, Katerina calmly questioned everyone present. As for the girl's question, people looked at each other and no one answered. All of a sudden quiet down.

This kind of situation is not because everyone disrespects Katerina. On the contrary, in today’s world of [Princess Hill]’s military exploits and Chris Port’s political status rising wildly, Carter, the creator of [Princess Hill], Linna, whose prestige has long been unmatched in the Chris camp.

Although it is not yet a promise, but the girl has essentially qualified to act arbitrarily.

The reason why no one answered at this time was purely because the girl's proposal just now was too shocking, and no one knew how to answer it at all.
