There are not many subordinates who can still keep up with Hawkeye's footsteps after several battles.

In fact, Koji underestimated the strength of the federal secret intelligence department. Hawkeye and his men could still win the vitality of the entire city.

If it weren't for the team's burden, Hawkeye could have withdrawn from the safe rear and prepared to accept the next mission.

Hawkeye and his men successfully touched Gagu City and Zakun City to secretly contact information, and followed the clues and found that the two sides had more interests in recent years.

During the operation, Hawkeye met a very heavy politician in Gagu City. The other party said that he could provide confidential information about Gagu City and Zakun City, provided that he and his family are safe.

For this reason, Hawkeye had to expose his whereabouts and escort the witnesses to retreat.

Then, Gagu City was like a honeycomb that had been poked into a hole and sent troops to pursue Hawkeye and his men at any cost.

From street fighting in the city to chase in the suburbs, to forest counterattacks outside the city, the battlefield finally extends all the way to the coastline that seems to be a back road but is actually desperate.

Along the way, Hawkeye and his men faced the agents of the Gagu City, local guards, and city defense forces, and were eventually intercepted by the maritime guards.

I have encountered private cars, police explosion-proof cars, military armored cars, and tanks.

There are also coastal combat ships that are blocking Juesheng Road now.

Hawkeye, an abandoned logging factory lurking in the deep forest, has won a breathing time to restore his status.

Through the factory window, you can see the blue sea outside, as well as the Kagu Navy warships on the sea that are wary of being defended, blocking the surrounding areas that Hawkeye can see.

In the mountains and forests behind me, there were a large number of Jiagu City city defense troops and military dogs searching for any clues they left behind.

The overnight battle made everyone, including Hawkeye, exhausted. Hawkeye's injured left leg seemed to be numb without his control.

After a simple rebanding, Hawkeye faced a choice again. This position will be discovered soon, and it will inevitably be covered by sea artillery fire. Even if you are lucky enough to avoid the bombardment of ship guns, there will be a sweep of land troops.

He must find a way out for a safe escape.

“Eat something.”

A piece of military dry food was handed to Hawkeye.

Hilgard himself also sat down next to Hawkeye while gnawing the dry food.

The good family was born and had been reserved for decades? That thing Hilgard lost when he started to escape.

"Thank you... Thank you, Mr., I have worked hard all the way. After returning to the Federation, Mr., what you lose will be doubled. I promise you." Hawkeye had a high attitude towards the down-and-out middle-aged man in front of him.

Almost every big city in the Federation has its own route to connect the sea.

Almost every city has its own maritime defense force, and the Federation has always turned a blind eye to it. As long as you are not trying to escape, you will just pretend that you have seen nothing.

Why did the federal government insist on making trouble in Zakun City this time?

He also went through legal procedures and had been stalemate for so long when he negotiated with Zakun City?

Because even the Federation was attracted to Zakun City's naval technology, and wanted to accept the system it invested in this area, including secret shipyards and workers.

A large part of the reason is that this man named Hilgard, who was originally a nobleman from Gagu City and was invited by Zakun City to serve as an important member of the Ministry of Coastal Defense.

In fact, he is a senior engineer in a shipyard.

The name Hilgard can be said to be a household name even in the entire Federation.

He created countless achievements for mankind in his past life, and led to the rise of the Federal City Defense Navy. Now the shipbuilding industry system used by the Federation is integrated and organized by him.

He showed humans a new way to resist the deep-sea fleet except for ship girls, that is, warships built by humans themselves.

It's a pity...

This is not a good thing.

In the safe Federation of the heroic ship girls defended the front line, he seemed to have opened Pandora's box.

The rise of the city defense navy triggered a series of balanced damage, causing competition between the countries and regions of the federal states and regions to compete with each other, invade interests, and reshuffle the power.

Some people say that this is a process that the Federation must go through, which will bring more fresh blood and more rapid development to the current Federation.

In fact, the general trend of the entire society is indeed progressing as expected.

For example, with the help of Hilgard, Zakun City built a battleship-class industrial ship.

past.

Even now.

In many parts of the Federation, even ships that can be called warships cannot be built.

But in Zakun City, they can already build warships of the first-level battleship through human abilities and the cooperation of fairies.

The displacement exceeds 20,000 tons and 30,000 tons.

Thick armor protection, 380mm or even larger caliber main gun configuration.

It is precisely because of this that Zakun City has the confidence to build a fleet of more than a limited size in violation of federal regulations. His fleet, including a battleship girl, had four battleships.

Four battleships.

This proportion can be said to be the level of a country in the original world.

But Zakun City was not satisfied with this. He needed more warships, more naval soldiers, and more sources of maritime supplies, so he eventually became an opposition to the Federation.

After learning that Zakun City's greed was uncontrollable, Hilgard refused the favorable conditions and chose to return to his hometown.

Because of his existence, the relationship between Gagu City and Zakun City is much more complicated than the apparently visible, and of course it is much closer.

If Hilgard had not refused to provide only regular advice for the same planning of Gagu City, the federal targeting might not have been as simple as Zakun City.

Such a star-like figure.

Hilgard enjoyed high privileges in the city of Gagu but lost his freedom to a certain extent.

After meeting Hawkeye by chance, the great engineer resolutely gave up his superior conditions in Gago City and decided to escape from control.

As a result, he was sent to hunt down all his troops by Jiagu City.

The attitude of Kagu City can be seen from the orders it gave to the soldiers.

If you live, you must see people and die, you must see corpses. You must never let Hilgard be taken away from its control and be accepted by the Federation.

It is because of the importance of Hilgard's identity that Hawkeye didn't even dare to report his news to the surrounding federal bases, but instead directly notified the federal superiors with a more hidden secret line.

Then there is the current situation of ambushing on all sides.

"It's not too late to talk about my business when I escape, I'm afraid..."

Hilgard seemed to have little confidence, and he knew that he and his family had dragged down the efficiency of the entire team and missed the opportunity.

The city of Gagu sank all the ships that can be seen in this area. You know the ones you see on the sea are the sea guard warships of Gagu, but in the outside world they are pirate groups.

Gagu City let its regular army play pirates in order not to let Hilgard escape from its sight.

"Don't worry, I have applied for help from the base, you should know that we have recently come to a Navy Admiral."

Hawkeye said in such a disadvantaged environment, still maintaining confidence.

A formal naval admiral.

That represents a naval fleet that is on a large scale.

Hilgard, who has built a ship for almost his whole life, knows the advantages and disadvantages of the warships built by humans and the ship girls.

The advantage is naturally that it is easier to form scale.

It does not need to carefully select qualified people from the entire federally age to receive awakening and transformation, and then carefully train suitable ship girls to finally form combat power.

In terms of overall investment cost, humans will consume less money to build warships by themselves than to select excellent ship girls by the admirals. The waste of an admiral on building ship girls every year is astronomical.

The shortcomings are also obvious.

In terms of high-end combat power, humans cannot achieve the magical battlefield performance of advanced ship girls.

Hilgard knew the strength of the fleet in Zakun City that it was still a big gap from the fleet of ship girls of the same size, almost insurmountable.

Thinking of the ship girl.

Thinking of the rumored admiral.

Hilgard couldn't help but reveal an unconcealed envy.

Many people know that when they were young, what Hilgard most wanted was to become an admiral.

However, he failed in the final awakening stage, and the goblins were unable to establish a spiritual network in him that could connect with the ship girls.

"Hope..." Hilgard sighed after chewing on dry food.

“…”

Hawkeye is not easy to say anything else.

What Hilgard was worried about was what he thought.

Although the help signal has been sent for half a day, it is still difficult to get assistance from the base.

Others don’t know that the warships on the sea are the official fleet base of Jiagu City, and they will have concerns and doubts after seeing them.

Maybe it will take a little longer to wait until they decide to come to a result.

After thinking about it, Hawkeye still comforted:
To be continued...
