Almost at the same time as Robin's voice sounded on the ship's announcement, Borg, who had been guarding the hatch, crashed into the cockpit and took a few steps to his navigator's position, asking, "What happened?" ”

"I don't know, Robin ...... all of a sudden" Cecilia looked at Borg timidly, and Cecilia had an instinctive fear of Borg, a strict mentor.

Robin, however, didn't pay attention to Borg's gaze at him, his eyes were fixed on the star map, and he suddenly asked, "Borg, how long is it until we leave the meteorite belt?" ”

Borg glanced at the speed and replied, "There are still ten minutes or so, but ...... Marine Captain Robin, could you give me an explanation for your use of ship-wide broadcasts? ”

"I'll explain later." Robin pushed the Borg away and continued to yell, "Andy, Avan, you guys also come to the bridge, right away!" ～”

"Damn, what the hell are you trying to do?"

Seeing that Robin continued Colin and called Andy and Aven, two gunners, to the bridge, Bog was furious: "This is the cockpit, and this is the place where the pilots can come." You gun-wielding ones should go to your place! ～”

"You're trying to tell me that the cockpit isn't an area guarded by our Marines?" Robin glanced sideways at Borg, got up and glared at him and said, "If you are not satisfied with my arrangement, you can wait until the end of the voyage to discuss it with me, now, you shut up for me, you just need to answer my questions." ”

“……”

Robin's domineering appearance at the moment and the appearance of the cabin were almost like two people, and the experienced Borg immediately realized this, although he was stubborn, he was not a stupid person. After following Robin's gaze into the narrow blank space on the star chart, he began to understand what Robin was worried about.

Soon after, Colin and Lee rushed to the cockpit, and a panicked Andy and Evan ran in after them.

"Conditioned?"

As soon as he stepped into the cockpit, Colin couldn't wait to ask.

"Not yet, but I have a hunch soon." Robin pulled Colin to the star map and explained, "I have read the operational notes of the previous Marine Captain, and in his notes, the minimum acceleration radius of the Union Army's 'Arrow' assault boat is 3,000 kilometers. So, if they're going to attack us, it's going to be the moment we leave the meteorite belt and enter a safe lane. ”

“……”

As soon as Robin said this, the entire cockpit suddenly became silent. Colin and Borg stared at the star map with solemn expressions, and their minds had already begun to guess where the Federation might be ambushed.

"Robin, why are you so sure we're going to be attacked?" Li Huan clasped his hands and looked at Robin suspiciously.

"My intuition, my gut told me. Haven't you already verified it with your own eyes? ”

"Well, since it's your instincts, I can't help but believe it, you damn broomstar." Li Xiao scolded and then turned to leave: "If you discuss the results, notify me, and I will make pre-war preparations." ”

Lee's statement showed his unreserved trust in Robin, and this was also felt by the other crew members in the cockpit, and the suspicion of Robin in their hearts was suppressed because of this.

"It was very difficult for us to determine the exact ambush location."

After a short exchange, Colin and Borg came to a consensus, after all, the meteorite belt is too complicated, especially after passing through this 3,000 kilometers of safe passage, the transport ship will enter another meteorite belt, which makes it impossible for the radar to cover a large area in such a short time. And using manpower to deduce the enemy's location is almost an impossible task.

"Yes......" Robin sighed in disappointment, but he didn't expect to be able to find the location of the Federal Army's ambush so easily, and even if he knew the exact location of the other party, with the range of the two 70mm guns on the transport ship, he couldn't directly threaten the opponent's main ship.

"Is there a way to contact other transport ships and inform them to disperse the formation?" Robin thought for a moment and then asked.

"No way, we're not a flagship, and Cecilia is only a trainee captain and is not qualified to open the fleet's public channel at all. Besides, all the speculation at the moment is just your inference, or just your intuition, and it is impossible for other captains to believe our words without any evidence. ”

"If they attack, then how can they determine our exact location. They should also be in the meteorite belt, and their radar can't cover our position either, so how did their 'Arrow' assault boat lock onto us? ”

"As soon as the flagship of our fleet leaves the range of the meteorite belt, they can calculate the approximate position of each ship through the position of the flagship and the formation of our formation, and after the 'Arrow' assault boat is dispatched, it will automatically correct the course during the flight in order to accurately lock on to the target."

"Flagship!"

Borg's answer shocked Robin, who looked at the star map and yelled, "Where is the flagship now?" How long does it take to leave the meteorite belt? ”

Seeing Robin's appearance, Borg immediately understood, and after a little calculation, he came to the conclusion: "One minute." ”

"Damn! ~" Robin ran out of the cockpit like the wind: "Get out of the formation immediately, Andy, Aven, return to your battery immediately, Colin, follow me to the arsenal!" ”

Seeing that Robin was so nervous, Andy and Evan dared to hesitate and immediately ran back to the fort according to Robin's instructions, and Colin also ran out with Robin. Suddenly, the entire bridge was silent, and only a group of crew members looked at each other.

"Borg ......," one of the crew members in charge of the engine said, "Are we really going to break out of formation?" There is a penalty for leaving the formation without permission, is it ...... to take such a risk for the sake of a guess"

"Cecilia, you're the captain, you decide." Borg ignored the crew member and instead turned his gaze to Cecilia.

"I believe him." Cecilia replied without hesitation.

And hearing Cecilia's reply so affirmatively, Borg's frowning brows relaxed slightly, and ordered: "Adjust the course and break away from the formation!" ”

……

In less than half a minute, the captains of the entire fleet noticed that the ship at the very end of their formation, numbered TR-735, had left the course of the formation, and the flagship had not given any order to change course.

"Is that yellow-haired girl crazy?"

"Could it be that she's driving a spaceship while putting on makeup?"

"It's a joke to let this little girl be the captain of a ship."

……

Suddenly, the public channel was filled with chaotic angry rebukes from the captains of various ships, and the captain of the JC-492, as the flagship, immediately opened the public channel of the fleet and questioned Cecilia, the captain of the TR-735.

"Why did you leave the formation without permission?"

Hearing the stern voice of the flagship captain in the communication channel, Cecilia, who was quickly changing the course, couldn't help but turn pale, but soon, she regained her composure and answered through the communication channel: "The captain of our ship has analyzed that the fleet may be attacked on this section of the voyage, so he suggested that the ships disperse in formation to avoid the attack. ”

"Attack?"

The flagship captain raised his voice in vain: "What qualifications does your recruit captain have to ask the entire fleet to change formation?" And, as the captain, don't you know the risks that each ship will encounter when the formation is dispersed in this meteorite belt? ”

"That's it, what are you kids fooling about!"

As soon as the flagship captain's voice fell, countless jumbled voices rang out in the communication channel.

Hearing the merciless accusations of many captains, Borg shook his head helplessly, and while trying his best to adjust the course behind the course, he encouraged in an unusually firm voice: "If you believe him, then don't hesitate." You are the captain of the ship, and you are carrying the lives of everyone on the entire ship, right or wrong, and there will naturally be a conclusion when it is over, but you must not hesitate before making a judgment. ”

"Yes!"

Borg's words made the confusion in Cecilia's eyes dissipate instantly, and she no longer paid attention to the continuing curses and accusations in the communication channel, but insisted on changing the course, using her superb piloting skills to avoid a few meteorites floating in the channel and quickly moved away from the fleet formation.

"Second Lieutenant Cecilia!"

Cecilia's actions infuriated the captain of the flagship, but just as he was about to warn Cecilia sternly, a scream of horror suddenly rang out through the communication channel.

"Enemy attack! ――”

When these two nightmarish words resounded through the communication channel, on the radar map of the driver's seat, more than a dozen red points of light were rapidly approaching the transport fleet in a straight line at an unimaginable speed.

Rumble! ――

In an instant, a violent rush rang out, and after a series of screams and noisy shouts, all that remained in the fleet's communication channel was an endless rustle.

“……”

After a brief silence.

"You're right, my captain!"

Borg, who was the first to wake up, wiped the dense beads of sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand, and suddenly shouted: "Run! They won't let us go, the second attack will come soon! ”

Borg's roar instantly woke up the stunned crew members, and under the threat of death, the crew had no time to sigh at Robin's prophetic premonition, and immediately focused on their respective functions in panic, and became crazy busy.

Cecilia, on the other hand, suppressed her fears and navigated the massive transport ship like a butterfly through the dense meteorites according to the twisted course newly piloted by Borg.

At the same time, in the two-door rotator battery of the transport ship. Andy and Aven turned pale, staring at the fleet that had been consumed by fire and explosions with bloodshot eyes.

Just now, the flash of attack was so fast that they didn't have time to react. With an acceleration radius of 3,000 km, the Arrow assault boat appeared as if it had suddenly appeared in the night, and instantly nailed to the nine transport ships in the fleet. Moreover, four transports, including the flagship JC-492, were directly hit in the bow position, while the rest mostly hit the position where the stern power compartment was located.

The bridge in the bow and the power compartment in the stern, this is the deadliest brain and heart of the spaceship. If these two places were directly used as a breakthrough, the ship's mobility could be dismantled in the shortest possible time, so the accurate strike of the Federation Army had almost sentenced the nine transport ships to death.

Now, in the entire fleet, only one of their transports, the TR-735, was spared by breaking away from the fleet. As gunners, Andy and Evan watched almost as a flash of silver light flew past the ship. But before they could fire from their cannons, the missed assault boat quickly returned to its home under the auspices of the return procedure.

Everyone knows that this attack on the Federation has been planned for a long time, and with such an advantage, they will definitely not let go of any transport ship, as long as they lock the location and channel of the TR-735 ship, then the next attack will come in an instant.

"Colin, have you locked down the position of the other party's mothership?"

In the arsenal, all the Marines gathered around Robin, except for Lee, who was already in position at the sniper position, clutching the assault rifles in their hands and waiting for orders.

"I've connected the ship's interstellar radar and calculated the location of their mothership based on the assaulter's return route, but what do you want to do? We don't have assault boats, and our Catfish-type transports don't have the conditions to launch, so we can't directly attack their mothership. After Colin sent the location of the opponent's mothership to Borg, he took out two large pistols from behind, skillfully inspected the guns, and prepared before the battle.

"Who said I wanted to attack their mothership, knowing the location of their mothership, we can at least avoid them and escape." Speaking of this, Robin paused, and there was a touch of ruthlessness in his eyes: "If we really can't escape, then we can only fight hard." ”
