Chapter 66 Hard-to-Eat Monthly Pass)
After a period of time, the target passes a message back again.
"Report to the captain, and when the target signal is received, the opponent's tough request, our speed must not be higher than 500 kilometers per second! They emphasize that this is their bottom line."
"The speed of 500 kilometers per second is still too low during normal interstellar voyage." Zhang Xuebin said solemnly.
"Although with the size of our warship, facing the current target of the transaction object, it is generally safe at present."
"And if the targets in Jupiter's orbit will launch a weapon attack, even if it is a light-speed weapon, one person and ten ships, we will have enough mass to support the defense."
"So, five hundred kilometers per second, this speed is not low for us. Objectively, it is acceptable, but the focus of communication is not speed."
"The key to the problem is not speed, the focus is the response to the problem."
Zhang Xuebin was silent and took a deep breath. This was still a test, and it was a test that he had not left for his side to think carefully.
Such conditions still cannot be agreed.
If you agree rashly, you will either reveal the defense ability of your own warship, or you will obviously tell the enemy that there is fraud. The bottomless concession will only make the opponent alert. There is a false among the truth and a true among the false, so that the enemy will not be able to distinguish it.
"Communication!"
"exist!"
"If you are not at ease, you can put the equipment on the remote delivery method! Five hundred kilometers, we cannot accept it. Our bottom line is one thousand kilometers per second!"
"..." The correspondent was obviously confused. What if the other party really sent such an order directly?
"Communication, do you have any questions?"
"No, the communication has been edited, please repeat confirmation!"
...
In a blink of an eye, after confirming the command, the communication is sent again.
This time, the waiting time for reply becomes longer.
At Zhang Xuebin's request, the warship maintained its original speed without any change and drove quickly along the established track.
At this time, the calmer you are, the more firm your attitude is.
To fool the enemy, you must first get into the role yourself.
And after the entire fleet drove along the orbital direction for about half an hour.
Finally, the communication came again.
"Comrade Captain, receive the target communication!"
"The target agrees with our request and requires us to start slowing down immediately and start trading immediately after the slowing down is completed."
At this moment, the drivers who had been nervous for more than half an hour finally relaxed for a moment.
"Haha, okay, I'm finally here, I'm worried so much."
"Yes, captain, I was shocked when I heard you give the reverse order. I was thinking, what if they really listened to your advice from the captain and directly sent the equipment over?" Someone touched his head and smiled.
"If you really send it here, you can only continue. What else can you do? However, the target did not send the equipment as required, so this is why Captain Zhang is the captain, and you are the team member under Captain Zhang."
"The captain is awesome."
The short-term goal was achieved, and the team members sighed. Zhang Xuebin also let everyone say a few words. After a while, Zhang Xuebin immediately began to issue orders.
"There are all, wait for five minutes, and then start slowing down after five minutes!"
"I understand!" The team members agreed.
Deceleration is not the goal, five minutes of waiting time is the key.
If you agree too smoothly, there will be problems.
Even if I slowed down to 1,000 kilometers per second, I still made a huge concession. Five minutes were to show the very reluctant feeling in my heart.
Such concessions were made only for the other party's equipment support.
Details are the truth.
Victory is the result of pieced together little details.
The countdown begins.
Five minutes, one second and one second.
The countdown is thirty seconds.
...
Ten seconds...
Five seconds...
...
three!
two!
one!
"Everyone has it, start slowing down!"
No one hesitated, the order began to be executed as soon as possible. Deceleration is a big problem, especially this kind of warship that relies on the momentum conservation mechanism for interstellar navigation.
The spherical battleship shell is located at the center of the back, and the engine is quickly turned off.
After the fire was turned off, the spherical shell began to rotate quickly, but the driver inside the battleship did not feel any rotation at all. At the same time, because of the rolling of the spherical shell, it was in the plasma nozzle at the end, but it had already moved to the front in a few seconds. The next moment, the plasma nozzle began to eject again.
The long tail flame ejected in the reverse direction, and the high-temperature and high-speed tail flame ejected in the direction of its current progress, forming a powerful square force, and the deceleration began.
At this time, Zhang Xuebin was staring at the slowly approaching target. The target is now very close, almost tens of thousands of kilometers away. According to the current speed of the spacecraft, if it happens to be in the direction of progress, it will only take more than ten seconds.
So, the distance is very close.
"The target seems to be probing our warships."
The observer quickly reported that the scanning signal was a bit unscrupulous.
"Pay attention to core information protection."
"In addition, correspondents send a signal, we express our strong protest! If the other party does not restrain itself in thirty minutes, we do not rule out the use of force to conduct the same reconnaissance method!"
"Just press this!"
"yes!"
On the one hand, we must paralyze the enemy, and on the other hand, we are playing hard to get, with each strategy one after another.
In a stalemate, time passes slowly.
The scheduled time is getting closer.
“There are three minutes left before the deadline!”
“…two minutes!”
Last minute!
"Report, scan information is decaying rapidly!"
"The other party has cancelled the scan operation." The observer said excitedly.
Zhang Xuebin has a good foundation for advancement and retreat, so it is naturally awesome to fight with such a captain.
"Keep alert and continue to slow down!"
"clear."
Time passes quickly.
Finally, after almost ninety minutes of continuous slowdown.
The speed of the warship finally gradually approached one thousand kilometers per second.
"Observer, active detection is fully launched!"
"I understand, the detection has been fully launched."
"Very good, prevent enemy sneak attacks! Stay alert!"
"yes!"
"Other team members obeyed the orders. The other party was to slow us down and not directly deploy equipment. The purpose of the goal was already very clear. According to our plan, the current situation is not only what we care about, but it is obvious that they also care about our finished technology products."
"Obviously, they also want to use this action to get something from our warships. Can we agree?"
"cannot!"
"The action begins soon, and the final execution result of the task will depend on these next few minutes."
"Comrades, do you have confidence?"
"have!"
"Very good, everyone has it, act as planned!"
"yes!"
Chapter completed!
