Lynch's Seventh Fleet won a victory by destroying an enemy warship.
Although the remaining enemy warships escaped the battlefield by leaping, the victory of the Seventh Fleet was not considered a great victory in terms of results, it was just a victory.
Just a small victory.
However, the meaning of this victory to the Seventh Fleet is completely different.
After this battle, the Seventh Fleet washed away its previous humiliation.
From now on, the officers and soldiers of the Seventh Fleet can proudly tell others that they used their own Ability to avenge the deceased commander and comrades The trapping of dark matter weapons will last for a period of time.
During this period, the central area is a dangerous zone.
Lynch's Seventh Fleet has retreated to a safe area.
Looking at the trapping position ahead, Lynch ordered the entire fleet to reintegrate. orders, and at the same time verify the damage to the fleet.
This war did not take long from start to finish, only less than half an hour.
After counting, five battleships of the Seventh Fleet were more or less damaged.
Judging from this point alone, It can be seen that the opponent's technological power is powerful.
If the main force of the Seventh Fleet is not present, no one can predict the final outcome of the war.
But what is gratifying is that they won the victory and no one in the fleet was killed except the wounded.
On the surface, the war was over for the time being.
Except for the destroyed warship, all the enemy ships had escaped.
But Lynch still did not dare to neglect.
Facing such an opponent, Lynch still kept the fleet in complete formation to prevent accidents.
When the battle damage report came up and Lynch looked at the loss of each ship, Tom reported to him that the commander of Dahl wanted to meet with Lynch to express his gratitude to the earth's civilization fleet for the rescue.
"Put me through the communication."
Lynch thought for a moment and replied.
Then he walked to the command position beside the bridge and sat down.
Soon a small three-dimensional communication projection lit up in front of him.
"Hello general, I am Jeb.
Thank you for your rescue.
Thank you very much.
I would like to express my highest gratitude to you."
In the three-dimensional projection, Jeb stood there solemnly.
With excitement and gratitude, I salute Lynch with the military salute of Darlington.
Lynch returned the military salute, put down his hand and said calmly: "It's nothing, we have been looking for those people, and from this point of view they are our common enemies.
What happened today is just a coincidence, don't worry about it. superior."
"No, no, no," Jeb shook his head and said, "It may be a coincidence for you, but for us, it is a life-saving grace.
How can we not take it to heart?"
Faced with Jeb's sincere thanks, Lynch said a few words of humility and let nature take its course.
However, he refused Jeb's request to board the ship to express his gratitude to Lynch in person.
Since the Seventh Fleet still needs to maintain its battle formation, it is not convenient to invite the other party to board the ship at this time.
"Okay, I understand, but if I have the chance, I will go to Earth's civilization in person to express my gratitude to you."
Jeb replied with a hint of regret.
In view of the severe damage to the ships of the Darling Civilization fleet, and the fact that it would take some time for the opponent's support fleet to arrive, after consulting Jeb, Lynch's Seventh Fleet temporarily escorted them to retreat in the direction of the Darling Civilization until they were safe and own fleet contact.
Jeb gratefully agreed to this suggestion.
Indeed, as Lynch saw, their warships were already scarred.
Almost completely lost combat effectiveness.
Without the escort of the Seventh Fleet, once the Seventh Fleet leaves, they will no longer be able to face enemies that may appear anytime and anywhere.
Then, the Seventh Fleet escorted the fleet of Dar Civilization and began to withdraw from the battlefield.
Nearly eight hours later, a reinforcement fleet of Dar Civilization finally arrived.

At this time, the Seventh Fleet completed its mission.
After a simple handover, Lynch He commanded the Seventh Fleet and began to adjust its course, and soon disappeared in front of Jeb.
Looking at the distant Seventh Fleet of Earth's civilization.
Jeb felt extremely emotional.
At this moment, the communication calling him rang, and the communication was connected.
The other party who sent the communication was General Tanta, the commander of the V5 fleet who came for reinforcements.
Ten minutes later, Jeb's space shuttle boarded the flagship of the V5 fleet.
When he stepped out of the space shuttle, the first thing he saw was General Tanta who was already waiting outside.
"Old man, I almost thought I would never see you again."
As soon as he saw Jeb, General Tanta stepped forward quickly.
He warmly embraced his old comrade in a military manner.
After receiving Jeb's distress message, the v5 fleet adjusted its course and arrived as quickly as possible without any delay.
However, after all, the distance between the two sides was too far.
On the way here, General Tanta had been worried about Jeb's safety until he received the news eight hours ago that Jeb and the others had been rescued by the Seventh Fleet of Earth's civilization. , the stone in his heart was relieved.
General Tanta was extremely excited when he saw that Jeb was safe and sound.
You must know that they were classmates in the military academy and served together on the same battleship after graduating from the military academy.
If Jeb died in the universe this time because his rescue was late, then General Tanta would never be able to forgive himself in this life.
Fortunately, this did not happen.
"Me too, I almost thought I would never see you again."
Jeb replied with the same emotion.
The two hugged tightly, and then separated, General Tanta warmly greeted Jeb to go to his Sit in the cabin.
"Don't worry, I have made arrangements for your battleship and your men.
The most important thing for you now is to relax and rest."
When I arrived at the cabin, I saw Jeb's tired face with a trace of hesitation, and I knew what my old friend was thinking.
General Tanta said with a smile.
Hearing this, Jeb felt relieved, nodded and sat down.
At the same time, he took a sip of the drink that General Tanta poured for him.
"We're so lucky this time.
If the fleet from Earth's civilization hadn't arrived in time, we would have been doomed."
After finishing the drink in the cup in a few sips, Jeb couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, thanks to them."
Although he doesn't feel very good about Earth's civilization, from this point of view, General Tanta, like Jeb, is very grateful to Lynch and the Seventh Fleet.
He took the empty cup that Jeb had put aside, filled him with a drink, and then handed it over and said, "How did the fighting happen and what are the specific circumstances?"
Jeb shook his head and sighed: "I was confused from beginning to end.
This battle was simply incomprehensible."
"How to say" Jeb immediately told General Tanta the origin and process of the outbreak of this battle.
In fact, Jeb's fleet's situation from encountering the enemy to being sneak attacked was almost a reversal of the previous sneak attack on the Seventh Fleet.
It's just that the fleet under Jeb's command was slightly stronger than that of General Gascoll, and most of the 7th Fleet squadron led by General Gascoll were medium-sized warships, and their protective capabilities were not as strong as Jeb's warships.
In addition, the commander's personality and command style also caused the difference between Jeb and General Gascoll.
When the opponent's attack started, Jeb decisively adopted a strategy of fighting and retreating in order to maintain his strength.
Although he lost several battleships, the flagship and the other two battleships with the strongest defense capabilities survived.
Only then did they have the time to persist until the Earth Civilization's Seventh Fleet arrived.
When Jeb told these situations one by one, General Tanta fell silent.
His face looked a little strange, as if he was a little annoyed and a little angry at the same time.
Even with shame.

"Sorry, old man."
"It's nothing.
It's not easy for you to come here so quickly.
There's nothing we can do about it.
You don't have to apologize to me."
Jeb waved his hand.
Unexpectedly, General Tanta shook his head and said: "It's not this.
In fact, your tragedy can be avoided.
It's all my fault."
"It's your fault for avoiding old friends.
Why can't I understand what you said?"
Seeing General Tanta's appearance, Jeb was confused by him.
At Jeb's inquiry.
General Tanta told him one thing, that is, the earth civilization had previously issued a warning to various cosmic civilizations.
The warning specifically pointed out that an unknown cosmic civilization had launched an attack on the earth civilization's fleet and caused the earth civilization's fleet to be destroyed. of casualties.
Moreover, this civilization pretended to be other cosmic civilizations and carried out sneak attacks in extremely despicable and shameless ways.
It is hoped that all cosmic civilizations who have received the news will be more vigilant and search for traces of these mysterious enemies in various airspaces to understand the origins of each other.
The Darling Civilization also received this news, but due to the conflict between the Darling Civilization and the Earth's civilization, the upper levels of the Darling Civilization did not take it seriously.
Except for the small-scale knowledge of this information at the top of the fleet, there was no notification to the fleets below.
This is also the reason why Jeb's fleet encountered an accident.
As for General Tanta, he serves as the commander of the v5 fleet.
He was higher in military rank than Jeb, and just when the Earth civilization sent a warning message to the Dar civilization, General Tanta was reporting on his duties on the home planet, thus learning the news.
However, like other senior leaders of the fleet, General Tanta did not take seriously the warning message of the earth civilization.
He also believed that this was a trick played by the earth civilization.
Maybe the civilization on earth wants to use this kind of news to create panic, so as to gain some benefits for their civilization.
Furthermore, because his superiors did not pay attention to it, General Tanta did not care.
Another important reason is that Jeb’s view of earth civilization is different from that of most people.
He appears to be gentler and tolerant.
As an old friend, General Tanta didn't want to tell Jeb about it, so he quickly put it behind him.
But he did not expect that not long after the time passed, his old friend Jeb encountered such a situation.
If he could have told Jeb the news in advance and reminded him at the same time, then this tragedy would not have happened.
When General Tanta told Jeb about this, Jeb was stunned.
He never thought that the earth's civilization had warned him about his fleet's encounter very early.
If his civilization had only paid a little attention at that time, , convey this news to the fleet commanders below, then his subordinates will not die in vain.
Thinking of this, Jeb's heart was churning, and he didn't know what it felt like.
"These idiots" sulked in his heart.
Jeb clenched his fist and slammed it on the table in front of him: "They can't use their brains.
This is a matter of life and death for officers and soldiers.
Is this just because of their prejudice against earth civilization?"
It’s a bunch of assholes to ignore important information.”
Jeb's scolding made General Tanta look very embarrassed, because he was also considered one of these bastards and idiots.
If he could put aside his prejudices, make a calm judgment, or tell Jeb about this matter in advance, Then maybe everything will be different.
After cursing a few words, Jeb let out a long sigh.
After all, as a senior general, he also knew the contradiction between Darlington's civilization and Earth's civilization.
It was normal for the superiors to make such a biased decision.

However, judging from the current situation, this news has been confirmed, so the Dar civilization must be vigilant to prevent such a situation from happening again.
Jeb immediately told General Tanta that he would submit a situation report to his civilized fleet headquarters as fleet commander, and at the same time put forward a warning to attach importance to earth civilization, so as to tell the truth of the incident to all fleets, including private spaceship companies, etc. as soon as possible. , In addition, as the rescued party, he will also propose a formal official thank you from the Darlington civilization to the Earth civilization for their timely rescue.
"I understand, I will co-sign on it."
General Tanta nodded, and at the same time said the result that Jeb wanted to hear.
"Thank you, old friend" Jeb replied gratefully.
Then he didn't waste a moment and immediately drafted the intelligence report in General Tanta's cabin.
After drafting, he handed it to General Tanta to read.
Both sides After approval, they jointly signed it and sent it back to Dar Civilization as quickly as possible.
After doing this, Jeb was completely relaxed.
Although he had to make up for the situation, it was not too late.
As long as the same tragedy could be avoided, it was all necessary.
Similarly, in his heart, he also expressed deep gratitude to the earth civilization for the fleet rescue.
Just as he had said to Lynch before, if he had the opportunity, he would go to the earth civilization once, meet the commander in person, and thank him personally.
In fact, as a member of the Dar civilization, Jeb is slightly different from General Tanta in that his views on earth civilization are not strong.
In the current situation where most Dar people are dissatisfied with earth civilization, Jeb's views on earth civilization are contrary to that.
It's relatively mild.
This is not because of Jeb's character, but because of other reasons.
Because many years ago, when Jeb was still the captain of a small cruiser, he had direct contact with members of the earth's civilization, and to this day, the experience of that contact is still fresh in his mind.
New, maybe it was this contact that allowed Jeb to judge and face the earth's civilization more clearly and maintain such a mentality. aa2705221:
