Elder brother's garrison

Xiao Bai stared blankly at the steak on Admiral Nanxing's table.

Wow.

Eating steak so early in the morning, what a great appetite!

Xiao Bai's gaze lingered on the voluptuous and striking curves of Admiral Nanxing's body.

So the secret to getting a good figure is eating more meat...?

Just thinking about it.

Perhaps because Xiaobai had been standing beside him for too long, Admiral Nanxing's gaze shifted to Xiaobai.

"Good morning, Sister Nanxing."

Xiao Bai greeted Admiral Nanxing.

"...Good morning." Admiral Nanxing stopped what she was doing, silently looked at Xiaobai for a while, nodded, then used her fork to pick up a piece of juicy steak and slowly offered it to Xiaobai, "Would you like some?"

"Fuck me."

The president of the guild, Er Gou, stared wide-eyed at Admiral Nanxing, who was being so kind to Xiaobai.

Absolutely.

This autistic person actually knows how to feed and flirt?

Yesterday, when Admiral Nanxing and Xiaobai were interacting intimately, Guild Master Ergou was sleeping and unaware of it. She was also unaware that Xiaobai and Admiral Nanxing had become so close.

Looking at the familiar interaction between Admiral Nanxing and Xiaobai, who seemed to have known each other for years, President Ergou felt as if he had jumped between timelines.

what happened.

This atmosphere is one where only you feel like you've been NTR'd.

Ok.

Then again.

Did Xiaobai NTR'd Nanxing, or did Nanxing NTR'd Xiaobai...?

This is so frustrating.

wrong.

After thinking for a while, President Er Gou realized that he didn't seem to have any eggs.

"Ah, then I won't be polite. Thank you, Sister Nanxing." Xiaobai opened her mouth and, right in front of Guild Master Ergou, took a bite out of Admiral Nanxing's fork.

The steak enters the mouth.

Juice was flowing freely.

"Is it delicious?" Admiral Nanxing.

"Mmm...delicious." Xiaobai nodded. "It feels...very chewy, and it tastes better than anything I've ever had before, and it's quite different."

"This is a well-done steak, so the texture is different from other levels of doneness."

"Huh? Do you still have steak cooked to medium-well?" Xiaobai asked in surprise.

"Little White, you don't understand. Steak isn't just medium-rare or medium-well." President Er Gou finally found an opening to interject. She propped her chin on her hand and said to Little White, "Well-done is the basic requirement."

"Oh!"

"By the way, I like it cooked to a perfect 0.0001 degree," said President Er Gou.

"...So there's this level of ripeness?"

"Yes, just take the cow out into the sun for a while, then chase after it and let it graze. The boss saw this and immediately said he knew what he was doing."

"..."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Seeing the indescribable expressions on Xiaobai and Nanxing's faces, President Ergou laughed as he grabbed a steamed bun from the table and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it.

"Admiral Lu Lin, Admiral Lu Lin." Xiao Bai had barely sat down when Admiral Zhao Kuo, who was sitting in the guide's seat, put down his porridge and asked Xiao Bai with concern, "Admiral Lu Lin, did you get a good rest yesterday?"

"Yes, I rested very well. Thank you for your concern, Admiral Zhao Kuo."

"That's good, that's good..." Admiral Zhao Kuo smiled and scratched his head. "Um, regarding the plan for this event, because Admiral Lu Lin was absent for two days, you fell behind by two days. When we discuss the plan later, you might find it a little hard to keep up. If you really don't understand or don't know anything, please don't be shy and just ask us."

"Ah... this." Xiao Bai nodded, thinking that this Zhao Kuo was quite understanding. Xiao Bai smiled at Zhao Kuo, "Thank you for your kindness, but it's alright, Zhao Kuo. I've already read the plan, so don't worry about me. I should be able to keep up."

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled softly.

"Haha, Admiral Lu Lin, you're too kind. Each chapter of that plan contains at least hundreds of thousands of words. It's not something you can easily read in one night. Take the third chapter, for example..."

Chapter 1544, Adapting to the Changing Situation in Naval Battles.

In battle against the Abyssal Fleet, if a disjointed fleet occurs during a skirmish, the carrier fleet at the rear should immediately launch bombers to conduct three volleys of bombing raids on the area ahead. The first volley aims to repel the enemy's pursuing vanguard; the second volley aims to cover the disjointed fleet; and the third volley aims to buy time for wounded ship girls within the disjointed fleet to retreat back into the main fleet.

Xiao Bai smiled at Admiral Zhao Kuo and said, "Right?"

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, stood there stunned.

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, stared blankly at Xiao Bai, then lowered his head, picked up the plan and began flipping through it rapidly until he reached the third chapter and saw the first paragraph, at which point he stopped.

—What Xiaobai just said is exactly the information on the first page of Chapter 3.

Word for word.

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, closed the plan in a daze and looked at Xiaobai.

"...Admiral Lu Lin, you...really finished reading it?"

“Yes.” Xiaobai nodded.

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, stared blankly at Xiao Bai. As he looked, for some reason, his eyes began to moisten.

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, has been traveling the world for many years.

This is the first time I've ever seen someone who can recite their own business plan from memory.

Everyone else found their plans too long-winded and wished they would just die, but Admiral Lu Lin not only didn't find them long-winded, she even... memorized them!

That takes an incredible amount of trust.

Damn you.

So touching.

Chapter 1545 The Vanished Deep-Sea Dean

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, stared longingly at Xiao Bai. He stood there speechless for a long time, just watching, but after a while, his eyes couldn't help but well up with tears.

"Eh? Admiral Zhao Kuo? What's wrong with you?" Xiao Bai was startled by Admiral Zhao Kuo's reaction and quickly asked.

"Admiral Lu Lin...you, you've memorized my entire plan?" Admiral Zhao Kuo shook his head, wiped away his tears, and asked Xiao Bai.

"Uh... I guess so?"

Xiao Bai thought for a moment, then nodded cautiously.

Xiao Bai didn't deliberately try to memorize the contents of Zhao Kuo's plan; she just stayed up late last night to read it once.

only.

It's all because Xiaobai has a good memory. As long as Xiaobai has looked at something carefully, even if she doesn't try to memorize it, those things will automatically be entered into Xiaobai's memory.

It has nothing to do with Xiaobai's preferences; having a good memory is purely a passive skill.

"Admiral Zhao Kuo, your plan is very well written, reliable, and of great reference value, so I accidentally read a lot of it yesterday."

Xiao Bai smiled at Zhao Kuo, the admiral.

"Admiral Lu Lin, you don't need to memorize the whole thing..."

Although Admiral Zhao Kuo said this, his face and eyes revealed an undisguised excitement of being recognized. He gently patted the plan, tears welling up in his eyes.

"This plan... has an astonishing number of words. Even I spent two whole days compiling it, based on the advice of other admirals and referring to the plans for several previous large-scale naval operations."

The original intention of this plan was simply to give all the admirals a general understanding and to integrate the main lines of the operational plan. As for the remaining parts of this plan, the countermeasures for various unforeseen circumstances—those are, after all, low-probability unforeseen circumstances, and they are quite lengthy, taking up 90% of the book's pages.

I wrote those things down solely out of a transcriber's responsibility and obligation to ensure flawless war preparedness. As for you readers... with war approaching, meticulously reading all of this would inevitably consume a great deal of your energy. In fact, you could have temporarily shelved your reading plan, kept this plan book with you, and consulted it only when necessary—I never expected that Admiral Lu Lin would spend such a short time reading and memorizing this book... it truly... makes me... sob sob…”

As Zhao Kuo, the admiral, spoke, he became increasingly sobbing, eventually breaking down in tears.

"I'm so touched!!! I'm so touched!!!"

After Zhao Kuo shouted this, he sprang up from his chair like a human bomb, then ran out of the restaurant, wailing and bouncing on the floor, disappearing into the corridor.

In the restaurant, Xiao Bai stared blankly at the back of Admiral Zhao Kuo.

Ok?

What happened?

what's going on?

Why was Admiral Zhao Kuo so moved?

Xiao Bai stood there, stunned and at a loss.

"Basic procedure, sit down, Xiaobai." President Ergou tugged at Xiaobai's sleeve and pulled him back to the chair.

"Ah... Guild Master, did I just do something strange..." Xiaobai subconsciously moved closer to Guild Master Ergou, "What about Admiral Zhao Kuo... Should we go find Admiral Zhao Kuo?"

"Ah~ Zhao Kuo~" Guild Master Er Gou shrugged. "I understand, I understand. But it's alright, Zhao Kuo was just too happy. He'll be fine after he goes out for a run to calm down."

"...Too happy?"

Xiao Bai was puzzled when he heard this.

"Hmph, Xiaobai, you don't understand." President Ergou laughed and tapped Xiaobai's forehead with her finger. "Zhao Kuo has been the planner among our top ten admirals for so long, and this is the first time he has met someone like you, Xiaobai, who actually memorized his entire plan."

"...Did this matter really make Admiral Zhao Kuo so happy...?"

"Of course. After all, we've always used Admiral Zhao Kuo's plans as reference material. Basically, once we've read the core parts, we don't touch the rest." President Er Gou tapped his chin and thought for a moment. "Of course, I'm not saying Admiral Zhao Kuo's plans are bad. For example, we're like a group of people who buy dictionaries. Dictionaries are certainly important, but after you buy such a thick dictionary, will you memorize all the contents?"

"Yes."

"..." Guild Leader Er Gou looked at Xiao Bai's expression and immediately felt helpless. She reached out and patted Xiao Bai's head. "Xiao Bai, you're awesome. But we adults don't memorize dictionaries. We usually only look them up when we need to."

"Oh..." Xiaobai nodded.

"Among our top ten admirals, Zhao Kuo was responsible for compiling the dictionary. Even he himself thought that the others wouldn't read the plan." President Er Gou put down his hand and said to Xiao Bai, "As a result, Xiao Bai, you memorized the plan for reference right away. Of course, Admiral Zhao Kuo will be very happy."

"Will you... be happy?"

“All writers in the world are like this.” President Er Gou thought of this and seemed to have come up with a good word. She said to Xiao Bai, “We usually call this the affirmation of readers, right? Xiao Bai, you are the first reader in ten years who can recite his work from memory.”

"Uh... I see..."

Just as Chairman Er Gou predicted.

Not long after Admiral Zhao Kuo ran out of the restaurant, after running two laps around Ella's courtyard, he finally crawled back to the restaurant, panting heavily.

Upon returning to the restaurant, Admiral Zhao Kuo first apologized for his inappropriate behavior of running away from the restaurant. After Xiao Bai waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing, Admiral Zhao Kuo bowed deeply to Xiao Bai three times, expressing his sincere respect for Xiao Bai's professionalism in memorizing the plan.

Since things have already developed to this point, Xiao Bai can't tell Admiral Zhao Kuo that he was actually forced to memorize the plan. He can only exchange a few rounds of flattery with Admiral Zhao Kuo.

At last.

As if he had received some kind of buff, Admiral Zhao Kuo, filled with gratitude towards Xiao Bai, sat back in his seat with a radiant face.

"Great! I feel refreshed!"

Zhao Kuo, the admiral, waved his hand and shouted excitedly to the admirals present.

"Gentlemen! Let's begin discussing the next steps! I'm ready!"

If the other admirals hadn't witnessed it firsthand, they would have thought that Zhao Kuo, the Commander-in-Chief, was possessed by Commander Haoding.

The sight of it left Admiral Li Hua, who was sitting next to him, in awe for a whole year.

"Ah...right. Speaking of which, how is the situation on Admiral Haoding's side?" Admiral Lian and Admiral Ling were reminded and then asked Admiral Zhao Kuo.

“Ah, yes, that’s what I’m going to talk about later. I have some information about Admiral Haoding because I have his communication equipment here.” Admiral Zhao Kuo said to Admirals Lian and Ling, “Admiral Haoding has arrived at the front line today and is engaging in firefights with the enemy fleet.”

"Oh wow, a fight has already broken out? How's it going?"

“Hmm…Speaking of the battle situation…that’s also a point of confusion.” Admiral Zhao Kuo nodded. “He has already sent me the enemy fleet’s configuration on the main battlefield. Currently, the fleet led by Admiral Haoding is engaged in combat with the enemy, and the enemy fleet is under suppression. Admiral Haoding is attempting to advance into deeper waters.”

"As expected of him. Too reckless."

"Yes, as expected of him," Admiral Zhao Kuo said helplessly. "However, Admiral Haoding has his reasons for wanting to explore deeper waters."
