Chapter 1542 Being considerate
Strictly speaking, even in the Empire, ship sacrifice is a low-probability event. If you can't win, just surrender... Is this strange?

However, this time, Qu Jianlei and his men did not pursue total annihilation after all, and limited the small ships to chase at a maximum range of 10 million kilometers!

Because annihilating them all... is unnecessary. The company-class ship that escaped last time already knows most of their cards.

The reason why they hurriedly designed the major general this time was that they were worried that after the news spread, such opportunities would become fewer and fewer.

Some imperial warriors are eager to fight and hope that the pursuit distance can be extended to 20 million kilometers.

The fourth boss simply asked, "Do you know what 'controllable' means?"

How can you say you can control it if you can't even control your own inner desires?

The empire's soldiers could only shut up after hearing this.

They are just greedy for credit, not unscrupulous. Of course they know that Digital Phantom has taken their feelings into consideration.

Anyway, there wasn't much spoils from this battle, especially the small ships captured, which were less than half of the losses.

Mainly, the division-level ships, which had the most small ships, directly destroyed themselves.

The income and expenditure of the company-level ships were basically equal, the battalion-level ships had a slight surplus, and more than 2,000 prisoners were captured.

Again, if there were no casualties on the ship, three thousand prisoners would definitely not be a problem.

There were several starships that escaped, but it didn’t matter anymore, just pack up and leave.

As expected, someone suggested...why not destroy the last squadron as well?
Two of the three squadrons have been destroyed. If we can completely wipe out this mixed division, it will be a perfect record.

The person who made the suggestion believed that the squadron might not realize that it was isolated, and this was a great opportunity.

The Fourth In Command knew too well what his former colleagues were thinking - do you think they were unaware of the situation? Does that mean they really were unaware of the situation?

But objectively speaking, this kind of mentality of taking chances is often seen in wars.

There are many battle examples that show that when fighting, don't think too much, just keep your head down and charge forward.

The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. Who can grasp it all? Thinking about it over and over again often leads to missed opportunities.

There are many examples of successful adventures. War, after all, is a place where risks and opportunities coexist.

At this moment, a light hum came from his ears. It was the boss's consciousness.

"Fuck the perfect opportunity. Past success is called survivor bias...there are more examples of failure!"

"In a regular battle, taking a risk once in a while is not a big deal, but this is an attack behind enemy lines, understand?"

The fourth leader then made a firm statement, "The military authorized us to come here, and we have the right to command."

"If anyone thinks that this is a great opportunity, you are allowed to leave the team and do it on your own. Of course, it is also okay for us to leave the team."

Seeing that he was really angry, the soldiers could only shut up.

Qu Jianlei thought that since they had messed up Tianyu Star to such an extent, it would not be appropriate for them to stay there in the short term.

So they never looked back and sailed into the depths of the vast space.

While sailing, Qu Jianlei thought of the major general who died on the ship.

He was not the only one in the team. Several other people had used their spiritual sense to sense that there was indeed no living person left on that division-level ship.

In the past, he really paid attention to capturing senior enemy officers, but this incident really dampened his enthusiasm.

Then he swept his spiritual sense and accidentally saw a nutrition cabin, and was stunned for a moment.

"The half-dead leader was brought back?"

"Yes, I brought it back," the fourth leader replied in a deep voice.

The three men and two women on the shabby company-class ship were Qu Jianlei, the fourth boss, the paranoid, Qing Hu and Jia Shuiqing.

Duogan and Jing Yuexin hid themselves, while Yuanyuan, Huaxiezi, Claire and Tianyin hid in the soul bag.

When the company-class ship was hit, everyone had already reached the teleportation array, cast a few defensive talismans, and teleported away in time.

The fourth in command took the nutrition capsule away with him - after all, he was a colonel.

What followed was an intense battle, one thing after another. Everyone was busy with their own tasks and had no time to think about other things.

Qu Jianlei narrowed his eyes slightly, "He should have been killed by the friendly forces of the alliance!"

High-level prisoners must indeed be retained, but now he has more than one colonel and regiment commander in his hands - even a brigadier general.

Since the other party doesn't care about the life and death of the alliance soldiers at all, what is there for him to cherish?
If the leader survives, the alliance will know about it sooner or later.

Then it is no secret that they can escape from the dense artillery fire.

Next, the alliance will certainly conduct further research on this phenomenon.

The Imperial military is currently too embarrassed to ask about the supernatural abilities displayed by the Digital Phantom, but the Alliance will never be polite.

The key is that this will expose some of their cards, which may not be effective when used in the future.

The fourth boss was slightly startled, then reacted, "Kill this guy?"

In fact, he didn't mind killing a colonel.

But what made him embarrassed was that after he brought the people back, many captives had already noticed it.

If he really didn't want to be accused of "killing prisoners", he would probably have to find excuses to kill a lot of people.

Qu Jianlei immediately sensed his emotions and after a moment of thought, he said, "Search his soul."

"It's normal for him to have some sequelae after rescuing him from the hot-tempered company-class ship, right?"

They had searched the souls of many Alliance soldiers before, otherwise they would not have been able to impersonate them.

But I have never searched the souls of senior military officers because I don't think it is necessary.

The more serious thing is to hand over a few more senior officers of the imperial army, so that we can also save face, right?
Anyway, the military's interrogation methods shouldn't be too bad, so it doesn't matter if I leave it to them.

Qu Jianlei said this just to vent his anger, but when he searched his soul, he actually found something.

Senior military officers definitely have more secrets, but one of them is related to Qu Jianlei's team.

The Alliance military has recently been quietly purchasing large quantities of warp disruptors.

The military's reason for the acquisition was preparation for war, but the colonel's memory showed that this was a means to prevent the Digital Phantom from making near-earth jumps!
The origin of the matter was the last fire on Taigu Star.

Afterwards, the military asked an expert to analyze the situation and found that the Digital Phantom was able to come and go without a trace, 90% of the time because he had mastered near-earth jumps.

The Alliance's spies within the Empire have stepped up their search for similar information.

The military purchased a large number of jump jammers to prevent the Imperial military from widely using this technology.

This type of jammer has not yet been put into large-scale use, mainly because it would pose a huge threat to the people of the alliance.

When we have to use it in the future, the safety of the people will no longer be important - I believe they will understand.

The paranoid man was also looking at the soul search results and couldn't help but say, "Will it be inappropriate to use teleportation in battle in the future?"

This time the team fought in many battles in the alliance, and with only more than a thousand people, they defeated more than a dozen alliance regiments.

Among them, 10,000 people were captured, a large amount of spoils were seized, and countless enemy warships were destroyed.

In this process, the teleportation array played a very important role.

Especially in the tough battles on Tianyu Star, Qu Jianlei's side was far inferior in terms of starships and manpower.

Fortunately, they can teleport instantly during the battle, and one person can be used by several or even more than a dozen people.

Not only can information be transmitted quickly, but even super-large storage rings can be transmitted in time, so that one can be flexible and make better responses.

The battle thus became much easier, but unexpectedly, our side had already been suspected.

We didn't encounter any warp jammers this time, perhaps because the enemy underestimated us.

But what is more likely is that the other side believed that they would not be able to use near-ground jumps in the fierce battle, so they were not prepared.

But unfortunately, recent battles have proved that they may indeed have similar capabilities.

In addition, they also revealed secrets such as having extra-large storage space.

It is unrealistic to expect the other side not to notice it - the battlefield is where think tanks gather, who lacks a little imagination?
According to Qu Jianlei's cautiousness, these things should not be exposed!

But there is really no way, they were forced into this situation step by step.

From the regiment-level warship openly taking off from Tianyu Star, to the enemy reinforcements insisting on searching for the meteorite group where they were hiding...

They were all forced by the situation.

Faced with a fleet of more than 30 million kilometers in length, this strange formation cannot be solved without some means.

It is easy to scare someone away, but it is difficult to annihilate them. And the enemy who is scared away may soon turn around and come back to disgust you.

The bad thing is that we failed to completely wipe out the enemy in the end, so it was inevitable that the news would leak out.

To be honest, if that company-level ship had not escaped and its direction of escape was not to join the main force, Qu Jianlei might not have agreed to take the risk of attacking the division-level ship.

It’s not that we are worried about not being able to win, but after all, we are outnumbered by the enemy. Even if we launch a sneak attack, we may not be able to end the battle in the short term.

The opponent is playing at home, so naturally they have nothing to worry about, but as the attackers, they have to consider a quick victory.

Our own soldiers were eager to fight, but that was only a secondary factor. The main factor was that the secret could no longer be kept!

Anyway, things have developed to this point, and we are really in the game and have no choice.

Qu Jianlei rubbed his forehead in distress, "I'm afraid there's more trouble than just this."

The process of war is actually a process of mutual understanding.

It is not surprising that the alliance already knows many of our methods and must find ways to crack them.

Not to mention teleportation, the next generation of artificial intelligence may not be that useful. War has always been the biggest driving force for the development of science and technology.

Of course, discovering a problem is one thing, but there is still a long way to go before completely solving the problem.

But no matter what, the killer weapon of the past will become mediocre little by little.

But this is not a big deal. If the other party can develop and improve, then naturally we can too.

But in future battles, more and more reliance will be placed on real cultivation, and the biggest fist is the real hard truth.

"Try to avoid using it," Qu Jianlei said with a frown, "I'm worried about the teleportation arrays on the planets."

Since the alliance has similar speculations, it is inevitable that they will conduct strict inspections of space fluctuations on each planet.

"You can leave this to Senior Xizhao," Jing Yuexin said in a deep voice, "Five hundred meters underground is not safe, how about one thousand meters?"

The ruler jumped in the air. "Thank you so much! You are such a kind and thoughtful girl!"
