"It's been 65 years since Tian Yuan!" In the distant starry sky, five spaceships came out of the super-space-time flight to check the direction of the midway star.

Captain Gao Gao Shang calculated the time, and the time should not be too early - that would allow the Three Princes and the Red River Civilization to discover that the Tian Yuan Star was not far away from them, and it would be troublesome to send out a spaceship to search for it.

But it can't be too late, that will exhaust the patience of the three princes.

And thirty years is the limit of Gao Shang's calculations. From the initial return of the spaceship traded by the Three Princes, to the present time of taking his own spaceship to Midway Star, and considering the various problems within the Tian Yuan Star, the Three Princes are only allowed a maximum of thirty years.

For more than thirty years, even if the three princes can continue to cooperate, it will leave a pimple between the two sides. And as long as there is a pimple, sooner or later there will be an outbreak.

Gao Daishang's plan was to arrive at Midway Star in about 25 years, that is, around the 80th year of Tengen. Until then, it's good to sail slowly. By the way, you can take a detour and observe the starry sky around you.

And 25 years is also a test for Gao Shang to the three princes. If the news has not been leaked in 25 years, it means that the three princes really have the means, and everyone can strengthen cooperation a little, but they must strengthen their precautions.

Cooperate with capable people, save effort, but cooperate with capable people can not save worry!

Calculating the time, and still grinding in space for 16 years, Gundam Shang allowed the fleet to continue to enter a state of chrono flight.

Not to mention, in this state of flight, it is even helpful for cultivation—but only in the realm of returning to the truth.

............

Here in Tian Yuan Xing, it was already a different scene. After the invasion was confirmed, the entire Tian Yuan Star was mobilized in an instant.

As early as after the return of the Voyager, everyone strengthened the armament to the limit in order to deal with the problems of the Red River civilization.

At this time, it only took less than half an hour for the entire Tian Yuan Star to complete the preparations, and a large number of spaceships began to accelerate.

A stationary spaceship is a living target. Only a moving spaceship can avoid blows to the greatest extent.

But the situation is still not rosy. At this time, the closest base to the battlefield turned out to be not the Pluto base, but the base on Jupiter's moon and legendary moon.

At this time, Pluto is just on the other side of the starry sky. The rest of the bases have similar problems. This led to the Jupiter base, which turned out to be the closest to the battlefield.

And this one is recently, also 1.4 billion kilometers away!

What's more serious is that at this time, everyone's faster-than-light communication can only be connected with Dugu Junjie's side of the one-line, and the latest news shows that Dugu Junjie's flagship seems to have suffered a heavy blow, and Dugu Junjie has to take communication equipment and transfer to another spaceship.

Except for the ground that can communicate with Dugu Junjie faster than light, the rest of the communication can only rely on traditional methods.

Communication is not smooth, which is absolutely a terrible situation. Not to mention Pluto, an extremely important military base of the Ocean Group, is still on the other side of the starry sky. From the battlefield, more than 10 billion kilometers.

On top of that, the Pluto base has not yet received a signal for an attack. From this time on, the signal sent by Tian Yuan Star to Pluto is still on the way. It will take at least 300 minutes for the signal to arrive.

Fortunately, everyone is still prepared.

In the orbit near Tian Yuan Star, a large number of starry sky cannons have begun to calibrate the direction.

At the same time, the communication was also transmitted: pay attention to the attack path of the gauge rail gun. For the sake of error, please do not approach the 10,000 km range of the design path. Of course, the farther the better.

Especially here in Dugu Junjie, it is more than 4.5 billion kilometers away from Tianyuan Star, and when the rail cannon attacks here, the error may reach the level of 100,000 kilometers. But Dugu Junjie's side is also under the most pressure, and they need to find ways to keep the enemy's fleet in the same direction.

In other words, Dugu Junjie's side not only has to delay the enemy's footsteps, but also acts as a bait to keep the enemy in a fixed direction as much as possible.

This sudden appearance of the enemy is too deceitful. Their ships barely walk in a straight line, and the direction of progress in space is crooked, and there is no certainty at all. The overall direction of its progress remains the same, but its lateral movement can be as high as hundreds of thousands, millions of kilometers.

The rail cannon launched from the Tian Yuan Star can reach a speed of 0.16 times the speed of light, and it will take at least 26 hours to fly 4.5 billion kilometers. Taking into account the gravitational pull of the stars, perhaps another half an hour will be added.

How can you ensure that the enemy always maintains the general direction for such a long time?

"Lead by example!" said the staff officer beside Dugu Junjie. It sounds a bit off-topic, we're talking about the military, not education.

But Dugu Junjie understood.

He hesitated, immediately gritted his teeth, and ordered: "Adjust the direction of the spacecraft and enter the central area of the road map." And try to stay in this area and strike at the enemy. ”

If you want to fool the enemy, you must first make your own choice - forcing the enemy to go in a certain direction, it is unlikely, and everyone is not stupid. Moreover, with the combat capability of the current 15 warships, which are still small warships, it will not be able to cause much strong guidance to the remaining 60 warships of the enemy.

And according to Dugu Junjie's understanding, there is an error in the rail gun. Especially on the scale of 4.5 billion kilometers, the error will never be lower than 35,000 kilometers.

Then, as long as the fleet stays within the range of the planned route of the rail guns, it is the safest - provided that the rail guns do not hit too accurately.

Time is running out. Because, the situation is becoming more and more urgent. Dugu Junjie even saw that the other party's spaceship was hit in the middle of a hole that occupied half of the hull, and it actually started again!

The opponent is not only experienced in combat, but also has extraordinary maintenance capabilities. Dugu Junjie has clearly realized that this attack on Tianyuan Star's fleet is not trivial.

Without any further hesitation, the fleet immediately adjusted its direction and began to divert the center of the route planned by the guide railguns. This transfer is obviously different from the previous strategic maneuver and has a clear purpose.

Seeing such a strange movement of Dugu Junjie's fleet, on the Hailanbao fleet, Hai Lanbao's eyes narrowed. Three words immediately popped into his mind: safe zone!

Yes, as a nomadic civilization, they have too much combat experience. Seeing Dugu Junjie act like this, the first thing he thought of was the 'safe zone'.

In the previous 'herding' process, many civilizations carried out a kind of wide-ranging and indiscriminate attack. But such an attack will definitely leave a safe zone for your own fleet!

Of course, because of his rich combat experience, Hailan Bao did not immediately make a transfer, but asked the observation team to observe the starry sky in front of him to see if there were any strange flashes.

Most weapons will have a glow when attacking, and the light is very fast. As long as a ray of light is detected, it will be known if there is an attack.

However, the railgun is an exception.

Considering that Dugu Junjie has received information on his side, it means that if there is a light of attack, it should be seen in about time. But after observing for about an hour, nothing was found.

However, there was not much time left for Su Gu Hai Lanbao, because Dugu Junjie's fleet had already caught up from behind.

Previously, the direction of the two sides was staggered in a cross shape, with Dugu Junjie's combined fleet reaching a speed of 6,000 kilometers per second, and the speed of Hailanbao's fleet reaching 13,000 kilometers per second.

But after this period of fighting, Dugu Junjie actually commanded the fleet to go around a large arc and complete a turn. Although the speed has been reduced to less than 5000 kilometers after the turn, it is accelerating at this time and is beginning to pursue the target from the rear.

Of course, the Hailanbao fleet can still accelerate, but the previous attack also caused the fleet to be significantly damaged. Speeding up hastily will cause at least a third of the ships to be thrown off.

After comprehensive consideration, Hailanbao resolutely decided to distance himself. Repair the ship first, and think about the strategy again.

So, in the stunned eyes of Dugu Junjie and the others, the Hailanbao fleet dragged the injured spaceships, a total of 67 ships, and began to move away, and went farther and farther.

"This ...... This ......" the staff officer was a little dumbfounded.

Dugu Junjie took a deep breath and immediately sent a message to the ground to stop the rail cannon from firing. Then he reported the situation here to the ground, and made a comprehensive analysis of the unfamiliar fleet:

The enemy officers are cautious, experienced in combat, and have a strong ability to resist losses, and these ships have a very strong ability to lock onto their targets and attack with a high degree of accuracy. Compared with the Red River civilization, on the one hand, it is like a reserve, and on the other hand, it is like a special forces.

The fleet began to accelerate laterally, and although its forward speed was still 13,000 kilometers per second, the lateral speed also began to increase. From the sun's perspective, its trajectory looks like an involute curve.

It has been moving for more than 200 seconds, and the spacecraft has recorded a moving distance of nearly 3 million miles, and only then did Hailan Bao order to stop accelerating, and the spacecraft maintained a uniform motion. The maintenance crew started to get busy.

As a nomadic civilization, they possess great combat effectiveness. And the maintenance of the spaceship on the battlefield itself is a kind of combat effectiveness.

As for why it moved three million miles, it was because the enemy's covering attack might be powerful, but the range would not be very large. A million miles is the limit.

The million-mile diameter region is already the diameter of a medium-sized star, not a small area.

It can only be said that the combat experience of the Bone Hailan Bao is too rich. These are the real elites who have waded through death.

Moreover, the spaceships of the Hailanbao fleet, even if they are moving at a constant speed, are swinging from side to side like swimming fish. Maintenance crews can only fix themselves to the surface of the ship.

After calculating the speed of his own fleet, and then calculating the speed of Dugu Junjie's fleet, Su Gu Hai Lanbao said calmly: "Everyone has an hour to repair the spaceship. Priority is given to repairing power systems, followed by weapon systems. ”

In the rear, Dugu Junjie's fleet has re-accelerated. This time, the acceleration of the fleet was completely unleashed, and the engine power was sent to the limit.
