037 Battleship of the Empire

Interstellar voyage is the most boring journey, passengers stay in a shipping ship or spaceship for dozens of days, and the outside scenery cannot be seen in the sealed cabin, nor can they see the starry sky on the route.

If it's a shipping spaceship, there are many passengers, and everyone can chat to relieve their boredom, but Qiu Ci is on a battleship with a convoy directly under the Congress, and in addition to the escort team members and staff, she is the only passenger in the entire battleship.

This time, Louis Jon regarded Qiu Ci as extremely important, not only sent the entire direct three teams to escort him, but even arranged ten battleships, and the silver-gray battleship that Qiu Ci was riding was in the center, and there were nine warships around him to escort him. This is a standard combat configuration, and the shipping ships and spaceships along the way give way, and everyone can't help but wonder which big man is traveling.

Qi Hao was still a little worried that this little girl would not be able to bear the loneliness, and she would make a lot of noise to make trouble for him when the time came, and he himself was very reluctant to take care of this kind of work with children. But what surprised him slightly was that Qiu Ci had been quietly in the cabin since he got on the "Silver Eagle", and he hadn't even left the door.

Qi Hao was not at ease, worried that Qiu Ci was sick, this girl was not ordinary, although this time it was an order issued by the Speaker, but to mobilize a standard battleship group to escort the escort, this required the consent of the Führer. Moreover, the speaker told him that there must be no accidents during the escort, so Qi Hao naturally did not dare to be careless.

Taking advantage of a few opportunities to deliver meals to the girl, Qi Hao carefully observed Qiu Ci, his face was light red, his pupils were dark, and he was wearing a black lady dress, quietly ...... Lie in bed. Well, Qi Hao has to admit that the girl in front of him is very healthy, and there is no **** reaction caused by interstellar travel, but she is too sleepy, and every time Qi Hao brings food, what he sees is always like this.

This made the captain of the third team, who had always been cold and resolute, a little unbearable, and secretly thought to himself that this girl must be too boring, but she didn't come to pester the adults on the boat, for fear of causing trouble to others.

Of course he didn't know that the girl in front of him had grown up on spaceships and battleships since she was sensible in her previous life, and she had experienced countless interstellar voyages longer than this, and she had long been accustomed to the loneliness in the stars. If you want to say the most painful one, it is that he was forced by Lin Feng to sail in the interstellar for three years, and there was no landing on the way.

"Miss, why don't I take you around, move your body, it's not good for your body to sleep all the time." Qi Hao tried his best to soften the hard line of his face, and suggested in a warm voice.

Qiu Ci turned over, faced him lazily and said, "Lieutenant Colonel, I don't think there is any place to shop on the battleship." ”

Qi Hao said with a smile: "The Silver Eagle is very big, there is always a fun place, don't you feel bored if you stay in the cabin all the time?" ”

Qiu Ci sighed a little helplessly: "Lieutenant Colonel, are you riding a battleship for the first time?" Interstellar journeys are boring, and you get used to them after a few more sittings. But if you insist, I can accompany you for a walk. ”

Qi Hao's face darkened instantly, as the captain of the escort team directly under the Congress, he often protects the alliance adults when they travel, and taking a battleship is as normal as eating and drinking, this is the first time he has been asked if it is the first time to take a battleship.

Well, that's not the point, the point is what does she mean by the tone in which she talks to the child? Do you think that you are bored and panicked to pester her to play with you?

Qi Hao couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, and for the first time he felt that this girl was interesting, so he smiled: "It's a little boring, if Miss doesn't mind, I don't know if I can invite Miss to the cockpit to have a look, you can see a very beautiful starlight from the holographic screen of the cockpit." ”

"Okay, let's go check it out." Qiu Ci's tone was like being annoyed by a child's entanglement, and finally had no choice but to compromise, which made Qi Hao very speechless.

The Silver Eagle is a kilometer long, equipped with a standard military battleship, and there are a total of 300 Alliance soldiers in the battleship, including the staff, and everyone is at their respective posts, so along the way, Qiu Ji has only seen a few Alliance soldiers walking past her.

The cockpit is about 100 square meters, and all kinds of instruments occupy half of the area in the cabin, and the staff inside saw the two people coming in, nodded at Qi Hao and ignored them.

Qi Hao brought Qiu Ci to the bridge, and the holographic screen showed the starry sky outside the battleship, and the long and boundless black curtain was dotted with brilliant starlight, like a luxurious and gorgeous black evening dress, which may be the only beauty in the interstellar journey.

Qi Hao paid attention to Qiu Ci's face at any time, and seeing that she was still indifferent when she saw Rusi's beautiful scenery, she didn't have a surprised expression at all, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Has Miss seen such a starscape before?" As far as I know, you've never been on a shipping ship. ”

Qiu Ci replied lightly: "Lieutenant Colonel, in fact, there are many things that you don't need to see with your own eyes, there are many such holographic pictures on the virtual network, and they are all more beautiful than this, it's really not worth making a fuss about." ”

Qi Hao's face froze, he felt a little headache, is this girl saying that he has never seen the world? Despised by a little girl on a three-pole planet, Rao is he has always been calm-minded, and he can't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

The captain sitting on the bridge couldn't help laughing, it was the first time he saw Qi Hao deflated, and he couldn't help but tease: "Miss is right, Lieutenant Colonel Qi Hao, you really should always pay attention to the virtual network, otherwise you are likely to be treated as a dirt bun." ”

"Captain Diere, please focus on your work." Qi Hao said to him expressionlessly.

"Yo yo yo" Captain Dill said with a "tsk" sound in his mouth, mocking: "My lieutenant commander, the battleship is now on autopilot, can't you see this?" "It's obviously not the first time the two have worked together, and they talk very casually.

"Of course I know, but the route in this area is not smooth, especially since there is a space jump point nearby, and there has been a record of the Dikala Imperial fleet sneaking into the alliance from there, so it's better to be careful."

Captain Dill smiled nonchalantly, touched the short beard at the corner of his mouth, and said, "I said Lieutenant Colonel Qi Hao, the imperial invasion incident you mentioned was all ten years ago, I don't believe that we are so unlucky to run into such a small probability event." ”

Qi Hao shook his head and didn't speak, although Dill was very arrogant on the surface, he had extremely rich experience in piloting warships, and he was familiar with this route, since he said that it was okay, it was almost certain that it was safe. Qi Hao himself didn't believe in his heart that it would be so coincidental that he would encounter the fleets that the empire had secretly infiltrated.

"What is this?" Qiu Ci suddenly pointed to the holographic screen and asked, Qi Hao and Diel's eyes followed the direction of her finger, only to see some small black dots appear on the virtual screen, and these small black dots are moving at high speed, looking at their trajectory, it is likely to meet the fleet.

"Huh?" Dill stared at it for a moment, then opened his mouth and shouted, "Little Raff, enlarge these black dots for me a little bit, and see what the hell this is?" ”

"Yes, Captain Diere." There was an answer from the console, followed by a tapping disc.

Qi Hao had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Dier, what are these black dots, I can see that they are very fast." ”

Dill touched his short beard and said easily: "It's probably interstellar floating rubble, it's not good to be hit by this thing, you have to use an energy cannon to break them." ”

Hearing that it was floating gravel, Qi Hao breathed a sigh of relief, some floating objects often appeared in the interstellar route, and floating gravel was just one of the most common ones. It only takes an energy cannon to smash it so that it will not hinder navigation.

"It can't be floating rubble, the speed of floating gravel won't be so fast, you see, now these black spots are twice as big as just now." Qiu Ci said coldly beside her, since she saw these black spots, her eyes have never left the holographic screen, and her expression is extremely serious.

Dill looked at the black dots again, his eyelids jumped, and the look on his face became heavier and heavier, and he found that these black dots had doubled in size in just a few seconds, as Qiu Ci said, and this speed was not inferior to that of a battleship.

"Little Raff, aren't you okay, what are you doing slowly?" Dill yelled at the workbench.

"Alright, Captain." The clerk known as Little Raff replied. The black spots on the screen gradually zoomed in, and the black spots became clearer and clearer, and finally a clear image appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

There was a gasp of cold air in the cockpit, and the quiet pin drop could be heard.

After a long time, Dill smiled bitterly and said astringently: "My lieutenant colonel, your crow's mouth is really effective, and I have decided that if you are still alive this time, I will never let you board my warship in the future." ”

Qi Hao glanced at Dill angrily, and said angrily: "It's all at this time, there is still so much nonsense, hurry up and send the news, this imperial fleet has sneaked into the alliance, there must be an ulterior secret." ”

Dill hurriedly yelled at the people on the console who were in a daze: "What are you still doing, issue an orange alert to the other warships, the fighters are in place, and the rest of the personnel stay in the safe room, detect the weapon system, activate the energy filling, and prepare for battle." The Imperial bunnies ran to the Alliance to go wild and give them some color. ”

"Yes, Captain." ……

The cockpit suddenly became busy, everyone was nervous and busy with the work at hand, the loudspeaker on the battleship kept giving instructions, and the cabin resounded with busy footsteps.

"Lieutenant Colonel Qi Hao, take the young lady to the safe room for temporary shelter." Dill stared at the screen and said to Qi Hao.

Qi Hao nodded, after a short period of panic, he had regained his composure, and quietly asked Diel, who was sinking like water, "Diel, how long will it take for the Alliance Cruise Fleet to arrive after receiving the news?" ”

"I just received a reply from the cruising fleet, they are coming at full speed, and it will take about forty-eight hours." Dill leaned into his ear and whispered, his tone flat.

Qi Hao's face changed, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he and Dill glanced at each other, and each could see each other's determination. We only have ten warships, but the other side has nearly forty, and I am afraid that by the time the cruising fleet arrives to support, it will already be blown into debris and floating in space.

Since you know that you will die, of course, you have to kill enough money. The bloodiness of the alliance soldiers was completely stimulated, Qi Hao felt that the blood was surging all over his body, he forcibly suppressed the desire to fight in his heart, and said in a deep voice to Qiu Ci: "Miss, please follow me to the safe room, don't affect Captain Dill and their work." ”

"Are we going to fight the opposing ship, Lieutenant Colonel?" Qiu Ji looked at the black imperial battleship that was getting clearer and clearer on the screen, and his thin eyebrows were slightly raised.

Today's two watches, the second watch is at six o'clock in the afternoon, dear friends, Mo Da
