The fleets of both sides fired laser cannons at each other for a long time, so they were already far away from the scope of the star's gravitational field and could initiate a hyperspace jump at any time.

Of course, because the Salarians had just come out of hyperspace and were on fire with Zhao Chui's fleet, they had not had time to recharge near the star, so they were naturally unable to jump into hyperspace immediately at this moment.

They also understood this, so they warmly welcomed Zhao Chui's behavior of staying and fighting instead of running away.

In their opinion, perhaps the Zhao Chui fleet also did not have time to complete recharging.

But now, with both sides chasing and escaping, everyone is far away from the star. Even if the Zhao Chui fleet wants to cease fire and recharge, it is impossible.

So when the remaining warships of Zhao Chui's fleet suddenly disappeared, Leonardo was a little surprised.

However, since the opponent has already run away, and he cannot chase after him right away, the only thing left to do is to clean up the mess as soon as possible and complete the charging.

There are still a few lucky people alive on the two destroyed warships, and a rescue team must be dispatched as soon as possible to search and rescue them.

Some items among the garbage scattered nearby have recycling value, and a multi-functional small spacecraft needs to be arranged to go out to collect it.

The remaining battleships themselves also suffered varying degrees of damage and must be repaired as soon as possible while recharging, at least without affecting the hyperspace jump immediately after recharging.

Taking stock of the results of the battle, Zhao Chui lost 4 warships, and the Salarian lost 2 ships. In addition, there were a few casualties on the spacecraft that were hit by missiles.

Both sides suffered losses in this battle. Relatively speaking, the Salarians suffered greater losses because their updated warship styles were more valuable.

But looking at it from another perspective, the Zhao Chui fleet lost more than one-third of the warships, while the Salarian fleet lost only one-tenth. Even if the exchange ratio is the same next time, Lai Rui will still have the last laugh.

Leonardo.

After suffering a loss once, Zhao Chui's fleet was on guard, and it was no longer possible for the Zhao Chui fleet to use insidious tactics of real and fake missiles to deceive people.

There is only one result of a head-on confrontation - the entire Zhao Chui fleet is annihilated, and the Salarians suffer zero losses.

The battleships previously lost by Leonardo were all non-capital ships below cruisers, and the strength of the entire fleet still remained.

As long as Zhao Chui is captured alive and handed over, the reward will be enough to make up for this loss. The most important thing is that with this great achievement, Leonardo will definitely be determined as the commander of the Second Fleet.

Thinking of this, Leonardo cast his sight in the direction where Zhao Chui's fleet disappeared, and began to look forward to the two sides meeting again.

Perhaps today was his lucky day. Just when he began to look forward to the good times in the future, his subordinates reported loudly: "Sir, unidentified spaceships were found above the fleet... They are the spaceships that just escaped!"

Leonardo was very surprised when he heard the news.

Could it be that the battle just now caused a problem with the opponent's navigation system and the hyperspace jump coordinates were wrong?

In any case, since the opponent has already used hyperspace jump, it is impossible to escape through hyperspace jump again unless they go to a nearby star again to recharge.

So will you give them a chance to recharge?

Dream on!

"All battleships raise their shields and come forward to fight!" Leonardo's mouth showed a smile.

However, he forgot one thing - he had just experienced a big war, the experienced veterans had left their posts to rest, and the officers on duty now were all novices.

The officer who just reported was such an inexperienced trainee officer, otherwise he would not have forgotten to provide the distance of the opponent's fleet when reporting.

Leonardo also forgot to ask, thinking that the other party was far away from him - usually only in this case there is no need to emphasize the distance.

Looking at the Zhao Chui fleet again, is it really because of an error in the navigation system that it appears here?

of course not!

After discovering the weaknesses of the opponent's warships, the remaining warships that were previously damaged in the battle prepared to perform their final mission-to directly ram the enemy warships.

Therefore, only 4 battleships escaped from hyperspace this time, excluding Zhao Chui's flagship.

These four battleships had already found their targets in hyperspace, and then appeared out of thin air very close to the Salarian fleet, running forward at full speed.

"No, we're about to hit you, get out of the way!"

"It's too late, everyone, prepare for the impact!"

Among the several salarian warships that were targeted, various panicked shouts rang out...

The distance was so close that the salarians were knocked headlong before they even had time to aim their bows at them.

The thin energy shield could not stop an object of such large mass as the battleship. The four unlucky battleships were blocked by them and hit the weak point, and together with the impactor, they turned into a huge fireball.

In less than a minute, the battle Leonardo was looking forward to was over before it even started.

After the white light flashed, Leonardo felt that he was completely confused.

Can a battleship still be used like this?

You fucking don’t have martial ethics!

Fortunately, the new capital ships were huge and Anna did not choose them as ramming targets for the sake of safety.

In this way, the cruiser, which is one size smaller than the battleship, becomes the former's scapegoat.

The 4 ships that were hit were all battleships of this level, and they were all precious warships that had just entered service.

Leonardo could see this heavy loss without having to report it to his subordinates, and he almost fainted on the spot.

If before the previous battle, his fleet had only suffered superficial injuries, it can be said that it has now reached the point of breaking its muscles and bones.

Even if Zhao Chui comes and captures him now, his losses cannot be compensated by the family's rewards. The position of commander of the Second Fleet may not be so secure. After all, in addition to meritorious service, the strength of his own squadron is also very important.

As for failing to catch Zhao Chui...he didn't even dare to imagine the consequences of this result.

If he still can't handle bringing such a powerful fleet to hunt down a small group of enemies equipped only with old battleships... I'm afraid suicide is his only way out.

Apart from the unlucky Leonardo, those who were also shocked by this battle were Zhao Ming, He Li and others who were far away on Earth.

After getting the latest video sent back from Zhao Chui, Zhao Ming immediately watched it with Wanda and He Li in the virtual space.

The sneak attack of real and fake missiles can also be said to take advantage of the enemy's carelessness, and the collision tactics in space are beyond everyone's imagination.

"I really didn't expect Anna to use such tactics and abandon 4 warships that could still be repaired at once. She is really courageous!" Zhao Ming sighed.

"This trade-in deal is really good, haha! Boss, do you think we can use this tactic?" He Li asked excitedly.

"I'm afraid not." Wanda shook her head and said, "Our battleship uses a warp engine route, so we can't approach the enemy ship quietly without being discovered."

He Li nodded, "Yeah, I didn't expect that hyperspace jump, a method of interstellar travel that relies on stellar energy, can be used in such tactics. I thought our warp speed navigation was the way to go."
