Ye Fei, who was caught in fantasy and longing, came back to his senses for a while, and couldn't help but secretly laugh at his boss who was not a small person, but he was still daydreaming.

After patiently waiting for a day and a night, the passage of two light years was finally completely checked, and the end of the two light years was the last turn of the passage, as long as the Atlantean fleet turned this corner, it could fly all the way straight out of the passage.

Ye Fei immediately began to arrange the blockade, and the position was near the last turn!

He has no other choice but here, once the enemy passes through the last pass, the Atlantean fleet that has entered the faster-than-light state again can rush out of the passage non-stop, and even if Ye Fei has great ability, he will not be able to stop the enemy.

And after exceeding the range of two light years, not only is the "empty shape" unfamiliar, but the enemy ship in the state of superluminal speed is not said to be stopped, and if one is not careful, not to mention that the enemy ship is not stopped, and the own warship is destroyed by the enemy's warship, it will be sad.

After choosing the most reasonable decision, Ye Fei ordered the battleships hovering near the pass to continue to go deeper, trying their best to find out the situation inside the pass.

The enemy was only ten hours away from the pass, which could be described as a tight time and heavy task, Ye Fei thought about it and felt that the number of battleships near the pass was too small, so he simply pressed the whole army, and all the battleships rushed to the pass in the shortest possible time to join the ranks of exploration.

Two hours later, the all-out fleet figured out the approximate situation within the pass.

The final pass is very irregularly shaped, about fifteen light-seconds at its widest point. At its narrowest point, it is only two lightseconds and about six light minutes long.

One light second is 300,000 kilometers, which is unimaginably wide for the regular speed of a spaceship, but the speed of both human and Atlantean warships is far faster than the speed of light, so that a little distance can fly over in the blink of an eye, and compared to the empty and infinite universe, this pass is indeed too narrow to be narrower.

Not to mention, even if the main gun of the God of War level does not fire a salvo, it is enough to block the space of five light seconds.

What Ye Fei didn't expect was that there was a lot of safe space in front of and behind the pass. The outer space is eleven light-seconds in diameter. The space is roughly spherical, and the pass is at the bottom of the sphere, and the faster the battleship is, it will plunge headlong into the danger zone.

The space on the inside is much larger. There is a short diameter of nearly thirty light-seconds near the pass. An elliptical safe space with a length of 60 light-seconds. The position of the pass is near the oval waist, and if you look at the whole passage as a section of intestines, the shape of the pass is somewhat similar to that of the cecum.

If you think of the inner and outer spaces as a whole. It looks like a deformed gourd with a waist that is too heavy and looks unusually aggrieved.

Facing the number on the star map, Ye Fei's eyebrows were fiercely twisted together.

If an ambush is set up in the space outside the pass, the fleet must engage the enemy face-to-face, and although the number of detected spaces is said to be eleven light-seconds, there is no guarantee that the boundaries of the safe space are as clear as national borders, and for the sake of safety, a distance of ten light-seconds can be considered safe.

Human warships could not directly confront the Atlantean warships, and in such a narrow space to engage the enemy in an encounter, the advancing fleet had neither the advantage of equipment nor the space to turn around, but it was afraid that it would not be able to block the enemy's impact, and in the best case, that is, to destroy a part of the enemy by virtue of the geographical advantage, and finally escape from the reef area under the drive of the enemy's large army.

Since the idea of an external ambush does not work, the only way to do this is to put the ambush inside the pass.

However, when the human fleet fought against the Atlantean fleet, short-range faster-than-light flight was not only the only way to gain an advantage, but it could even be said to be the pinnacle of victory.

Except for the relatively fixed speed of faster-than-light flight speed of the star-flow type that does not enter the stream, the pursuit of any kind of faster-than-light engine is to increase the speed as much as possible, although the magnetic engine has lagged behind in the technology mastered by humans, and there has been no new breakthrough, but the minimum speed is still more than 1.5 times the beam.

The safe distance of 30 light seconds means that every short-distance flight beyond the speed of light must be kept to the lowest speed when it is necessary to pay attention to the direction, and the flight time cannot exceed 20 seconds.

With sixteen warships against hundreds of enemy warships, plus so many restrictions, Ye Fei couldn't see where the hope of victory was, he hesitated for a while and still hesitated, how could he not make up his mind.

Ye Fei finally sighed helplessly, wanted to get through Xu Shijie's communication, and after explaining the current situation, he elaborated his worries in detail, and finally emphasized: "Chief, there is a straight-line distance of more than four hundred light years between here and the solar system, and at the speed of the Atlanteans, this fleet will not be able to reach the solar system at all in more than half a year." With this six-or seven-month buffer, the civilians on the earth should be gone, and besides, by that time, the main fleet of the expeditionary force should have completed the pursuit mission, and it would not be a problem to draw out their hands to eat this enemy army. ”

Before the words fell, Ye Fei hurriedly added: "Chief, it's not that I'm greedy for life and afraid of death, but there is no need to let the fleet take unnecessary risks, after all, I only have sixteen warships here, and my strength is too thin, please think about it, can we give up this blockade." ”

Xu Shijie listened silently with his chin in his hands, and waited for Ye Fei to stop his mouth before he said slowly: "Your reasons are very good, but I also have some reasons here, asking you to fight this blockade and give the Atlanteans a little color." ”

Ye Fei didn't expect Xu Shijie to give such an answer at all, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Chief, is there anything new?" ”

The strength of the advancing fleet is here, and encountering a large number of enemies is also an accident, if the situation does not change, presumably Xu Shijie will not give such an order.

"It's a little bit different." Xu Shijie said, "When the Atlanteans invaded the solar system, some of the scientific research departments that had already been determined to be evacuated did not have time to withdraw, and some researchers from the military were stranded on Earth, so we ...... Didn't find them! ”

"What?" Ye Fei was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What are they studying?" ”

"They are all studying super-heavy elements, and their research has just reached a critical moment, and they originally planned to evacuate immediately after the results were out, but they didn't expect ...... Alas! Xu Shijie sighed helplessly. (To be continued......)
