What did you say? No?" Zhao Chui asked in surprise.

"There is no time, their fleet will jump out soon."

The oval-faced incarnation pointed at the countdown on the screen, which showed that there were still about ten minutes left.

The Zhao Chui fleet is now located near the star, which is relatively far away from that location. If it turns around and flies there now, I am afraid that it will encounter the opponent and escape from hyperspace before it reaches it, and it will be a close call.

"Oh, let's wait again."

"Well, I have already set the escape point for our next hyperspace jump, and we can lay mines as soon as we come out."

"OK, let's go, the hyperspace engine has been recharged."

A light blue square suddenly appeared in front of each spacecraft in Zhao Chui's fleet. The entire fleet almost entered the square simultaneously and disappeared from the place in an instant. Many squares also collapsed, and the universe returned to cold and empty space.

normality.

Ten minutes later, a large number of light blue blocks appeared not far away again, and the Salarian fleet rushed out of these portals.

Inside the bridge of the leading battleship, there were far fewer officers and soldiers who were supposed to be on duty here, and only two Salarians were left standing here bored.

One of them was leaning on the back of the chair and fast asleep, with drool dripping from the corner of his mouth onto the obviously stained uniform on his body.

The other's mental state was not much better. He glanced at the screen and stayed there for a few seconds before he remembered what he wanted to do.

"The 8th hyperspace jump is over. The detector shows that... no enemies have been found within 20 light seconds. Turn off the energy shield and set a course to the star..."

After the tired Salarian completed a series of operations mechanically, he glanced at the large circular screen above the bridge and found that the situation of other warships in the fleet was similar. The energy shields of most warships had not been turned off, and his movements were still in progress.

Pretty fast.

"Hey, wake up, it's your turn."

He shook the drooling guy next to him vigorously, and it was time to get this lazy bastard to get up and work.

"Ah--"

The drooling man stretched and let out a big yawn.

"Coming out of hyperspace so soon? I haven't slept enough yet." The drooling man mumbled and whispered.

"Why are you so sleepy? What did you do last night?"

"Hey, don't mention it, the new guy in the dormitory actually talked in his sleep at night, and he was so annoying that he killed me!" the slobbering man said through gritted teeth.

"You are so unlucky to have such a guy in the stall." The driver sympathized, "The one added to our dormitory is fine. At least he sleeps more honestly, but his snoring is a bit annoying."

The drooling man is the navigator, and he also works part-time to calculate the hyperspace jump coordinates of the Zhao Chui fleet. He rubbed his big eyes vigorously and complained: "Oh, this is only the 8th time, and there will be 7 more jumps in the future. I really want to catch up right away."

Get on them."

The driver looked at him tapping the keyboard quickly and suddenly remembered something and asked quickly: "By the way, I heard that there is a military software called Blue or something. Isn't it possible to automatically track targets? It seems that it can..."

"It's okay!"

Before the pilot could finish speaking, the navigator gritted his teeth and said, "That piece of shit is just a sinkhole! I don't know who bribed the testing department with some connections. It's full of bugs, and it often crashes when it's lit.

Make people mad!"

"Uh... I see, then... it's automatically calculated after all. It should be faster than your manual calculation, right?"

"Shit! That software is a piece of shit!"

Not to mention automatic calculation, it's fine. When it comes to calculation, the navigator immediately exploded.

"You know, even if you can tolerate the system crashing frequently and getting stuck from time to time, the final calculated result may not be correct. Do you know what the funniest thing is? That is when you use the same parameters to calculate twice.

The results were completely different twice!"

"Ah? Isn't this... too outrageous?"

"Isn't that right? Who dares to use such software? I don't dare to use it anyway. Anyway, the spaceship needs to be charged for a long time, so it is more reliable to use the old method of calculation."

"Yeah, that makes sense."

...

A few hours later, near a huge white star, the Zhao Chui fleet broke away from hyperspace.

"Are the mines loaded?"

Zhao Chui looked at the unfamiliar stars on the big screen in front of him, then turned to Anna's oval-faced incarnation and asked.

"Yes, all the bombers on our aircraft carrier have been loaded with space mines, and now our position... is almost reaching the ambush site."

"Well, then let the aircraft carrier prepare to release the bombers, and start laying mines as soon as they arrive at the predetermined position."

"clear."

Soon, the only aircraft carrier in the fleet began to move. The colorful lights in the hangar flashed constantly. The ground crew began to conduct final inspections, and the pilots had already entered the cockpit to stand by.

"Everything is ready, our ship is ready to launch fighter jets." The aircraft carrier commander sent a report.

Zhao Chui took a deep breath and said, "I agree to let go and proceed as planned."

"clear."

The hangar exit of the aircraft carrier slowly opened, and a light yellow force field prevented the air inside from escaping outwards. Large objects such as bombers were not affected, and began to fly quickly to their respective mining sites one after another.

Each bomber carries 10 space mines inside. These mines are almost one meter square and are completely black. Their outline cannot be seen with the naked eye because the surface of these mines is coated with a material that can absorb 99.95% of the landmines.

Special coatings for visible light.

The aircraft carrier carries a total of 20 bombers, and if they are all scattered, there will be 200 space mines. The minefield composed of these mines is enough to cover a large area including the entire Salarian fleet.

The center point of this minefield is the coordinate point calculated by Anna. As long as the Salarians do not suddenly become dedicated to modifying the random number seeds, then when they escape from hyperspace, a big surprise will be waiting for them.

.

"Sir, the fleet has been recharged. Can we start the hyperspace jump now?"

The first mate's voice sounded from the speakers in Leonardo's room.

"Yes, yes, didn't I tell you earlier? Jump immediately after charging. Recharge immediately after jumping. Don't disturb me if you don't have anything important to do!"

The entertainment was interrupted, and Leonardo seemed a little annoyed.

You said it, but every time the fleet makes a hyperspace jump, can I, as the lieutenant, give the order? This is something that is clearly prohibited by the regulations.

The first mate looked helpless. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse to have such a careless superior.
Chapter completed!
