Vol 4 Chapter 1277: ambush

Shield seat λ252.
The twenty-fifth day of getting the four-dimensional space crystal.
The human fleet arrives at λ252 Scutum, and as long as it passes through the hyperspace node ahead, it can enter the λ253 Scutum star system.
In the λ253 Scutum star system, there is a hyperspace node leading to the spiral arm of Sagittarius.
As long as you pass through this hyperspace node and enter the Sagittarius spiral arm, it is safe.
The human fleet did not pass through the shield λ252-λ253 wormhole for the first time, but first released the reconnaissance aircraft and proton observers to pass through the wormhole to detect the situation on the other side of the wormhole.
"The reconnaissance plane passed through the wormhole and arrived at Shield λ253. The quantum entanglement signal is connected... The connection is complete. Now confirm the Shield λ253 environment..." The reconnaissance team notified the reconnaissance results in real time.
"No enemy ship was found within 10 light seconds, no ambush...you can pass."
"Wait a minute, it seems to be going too smoothly." Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that the action was much smoother than expected.
During the raid on the four-dimensional space crystal transport fleet, it was a sudden attack. At that time, we were in the dark, so it was not surprising that we succeeded in winning.
However, after capturing the four-dimensional space crystal, the evacuation went so smoothly all the way, which is a bit strange.
As long as you pass through the λ252-λ253 Scutum wormhole in front of you and reach the λ253 Scutum star system, you can see the wormhole leading to the spiral arm of Sagittarius.
This is the last step of a successful evacuation.
However, in this process, everything went so smoothly.
Occasionally encounter one or two reconnaissance ships of the Palestine Galaxy Far Star Empire, and you can easily throw them away or push them back.
This situation went too smoothly.
"The main battlefield fleet of the Palestine civilization's home planet shouldn't have only this level." Fang Yuan's expression became serious.
Kaztic is a Templar general sent by the parent star of the Palestine civilization. Even on the main battlefield, it is a very powerful presence.
To some extent, he came to the Milky Way, which should be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow.
However, the entire process of the human fleet's evacuation from the shield seat was unsuccessful, and the entire process was hardly obstructed.
"Indeed, with Kaz'tik's reputation and status, it shouldn't be at this level. Moreover, when he was carrying out the star map advancing tactics, the sense of suffocation crushed the carbon-based alliance without any resistance. It is impossible. At this level." Han Youwei nodded in agreement.
After serious consideration, Fang Yuan turned his head to look at Ye Zheyu, and asked, "Can I still use quantum communication to transfer the high-dimensional vision eye?"
Ye Zheyu nodded and said, "It should still work, but I'm not sure how long it will last."
"Just do your best, use it. You must confirm that the shield seat λ253 is absolutely safe before you can pass." Fang Yuan said.
"Ok."
Ye Zheyu used star power to condense a high-dimensional vision eye and put it into a reconnaissance plane.
The reconnaissance plane passed through the wormhole and flew towards the depths of Shield λ253.
Ye Zheyu put on a quantum communication helmet, and through quantum communication, he kept connected with the high-dimensional vision eye on the reconnaissance plane, and observed the Shield λ253.
"No abnormality in 10 light seconds... No abnormality in 20 light seconds... No abnormality in 30 light seconds..."
While observing, he reported the results of the observations.
There is no abnormality in 30 light seconds, which is already a very wide distance.
Normally, if you want to ambush a fleet that passes through a wormhole, the best distance is within 10 light seconds.
If, for the sake of the privacy of the ambush, the ambush distance is extended to 30 light seconds, it is actually the limit.
If it exceeds 30 light seconds, only battleship-class main guns can pose a threat to battleships.
However, it takes at least 30 seconds for the gamma light cannon to hit the target at a distance of 30 light seconds.
In actual combat, the shelling effect at this distance is very limited.
Ye Zheyu has confirmed that the distance of 30 light seconds is normal, and the reconnaissance results can basically be confirmed.
His ultra-high-dimensional visual reconnaissance has also reached its limit. When he was about to end the reconnaissance, his expression suddenly changed. He raised the last star power and pushed the reconnaissance distance beyond 35 light seconds.
"Something is wrong, there is a shadow of a battleship. In the asteroid belt 35 light seconds away, I saw the shadow of the shape of the battleship." Ye Zheyu shouted with excitement.
The high level of the human fleet was shocked when they heard this.
"Can you confirm?" Fang Yuan asked in a deep voice.
"It's the limit..." Ye Zheyu took off his helmet and replied solemnly, obviously a bit self-blame.
Fang Yuan stretched out his hand and pressed his shoulder, and said, "This is already good. Send a reconnaissance plane over to confirm."
A reconnaissance plane equipped with quantum communication equipment can transmit the reconnaissance results back to the Shenzhou in real time, but the flight speed is worrying.
It takes at least ten hours for a distance of 35 light seconds.
However, since Ye Zheyu had seen the shadow of a warship 35 light seconds away, it was very likely that there was indeed an ambush there.
Moreover, this is in line with the strength of the main fleet of the Palestine civilization.
"It will take at least ten hours for the reconnaissance aircraft to confirm it. Are we here to wait for the result?" a captain asked.
At this time, every second is very important to the fleet.
For ten hours, staying in the Shield λ252 and waiting, unpredictable changes are likely to occur.
The human fleet is now going to evacuate the shield arm. Ten hours is too long for the current human fleet.
Fang Yuan's expression became serious.
Now this decision must be made by him.
No one is expressing opinions at this time, they are all waiting for his decision.
After thinking carefully, Fang Yuan said: "Lang Xiaonian is looking for the next day's flight. I think there is an ambush in λ253 Scutum, so he just turned around."
"But without first confirming, just turn around, will it..." A military research team expressed doubts.
Now only Ye Zheyu saw the possible shadow of the warship, unable to determine whether there was an ambush.
"The shadow of the battleship that Lao Ye sees may be just an asteroid shaped like a battleship, or it may be a sunken ship. Will it be too rash to turn around now?" Another person also felt that this decision was made rashly.
After thinking privately, Fang Yuan said: "We sailed all the way, and the process was too smooth. The commander of the main fleet of the Palestine civilization should not only have this level.
"So, if Kaz'tik is a strong opponent, there should be an ambush in the Shield λ253.
"If you guess wrong, the shield seat λ253 is not in ambush, it means that Kaztec, the commander of the main fleet of Palestine, is not worthy of the name.
"If that's the case, then the battle is much simpler.
"But this kind of thing, just think about it.
"If you think about it in a normal way, there will definitely be an ambush in the Shield λ253. I bet it is not that simple.
"Turn around and change another way. The star field around 253 Scutum should not be under the control of the Palestine Galactic Far Star Empire. We have room for maneuver."
