Starfighter

Chapter 217 The Ancient Lantern Language

"Damn it! What are these bastards doing? Could it be that our plan has been leaked?" After being driven out of the command center by Colonel Four Eyes, Hao Yi crouched on the ground depressed, looking up at the door that was turned back. Locked the door, pulling her hair strand by strand and muttering to herself.

"Probably not!" Standing beside him, Pei Zhimao subconsciously murmured, frowning.After taking over the command of the entire battleship, the surrender group headed by the four-eyed colonel Moore suddenly changed their attitude 180 degrees, and they were quite rude to drive Hao Yi and others out of the command center.Although Pei Zhimao said this, he was very skeptical in his heart, whether it was because the other party had noticed some clues that the surrendered team would act like this.

"Shouldn't it be? You got kicked in the head by a donkey?" Hao Yi jumped up from the ground angrily, and shouted at Pei Zhimao almost nose to nose: "Damn, then you give me the money!" Explain, what are these idiots trying to do? Damn, now we can't even get into the bridge command center, so how are we going to catch these idiots?"

"Uh, this..." Pei Zhimao blushed and took half a step back, not knowing how to answer Haoyi.

"Commander, I wonder if other warships have encountered our situation?" At this time, the adjutant at the side cautiously reminded the two of them. [

"Oops!" Hao Yi and Pei Zhimao turned their heads to look at the adjutant almost at the same time, and shouted in unison.

"For dead cats, besides going through the command center, is there any other way to contact other warships?" The adjutant's inadvertent reminder made Haoyi and the two realize an extremely serious problem.That is, if the same happens to other battleships, then Haoyi's original plan will be completely messed up.

"Don't worry, let me think, think!" Pei Zhimao's heart skipped a beat, and his old face changed drastically.Although he originally planned to surrender before, at this point now, he has no way out, and can only fight with Hao Yi wholeheartedly.

"Don't be dumb, think about it quickly, what else can I do to contact other warships! Damn, this gang of bastards are so cruel!" Thinking of the seemingly perfect plan I had originally made, I almost Miscarriage was about to happen, Hao Yi was naturally very anxious, turned his head and shouted at the adjutants and staff officers beside him.

Normally, the external communication system of each warship is in the command center of the bridge.The four-eyed colonel drove Haoyi and others out of the command center, tantamount to completely cutting off their external communication channels, which was almost a fatal blow to Haoyi's next plan.For a while, a group of officers circled around the entrance of the command center like ants on a hot pot.

"Or, let's gather the guards on the battleship and forcibly take back the command center! Although the gate is locked, it shouldn't be difficult!" a staff officer said cautiously.

"No!" Pei Zhimao shook his head when he heard the words and denied: "There is a team of marines inside. Even if we are sure to forcefully attack and regain the control center, I believe they will have enough time to give them back before we take them down." In that case, our raid plan will fail completely, and we can only be forced to fight head-on with each other! In other words, we still have no advantage in this battle. It can only be a fiasco..."

"Okay! You've been rambling so much, have you thought of any other good solution?" Hao Yi impatiently jumped in front of Pei Zhimao, grabbed his arms and shook them vigorously.

"Ahem, my uncle, you are about to shake this old bone of mine to pieces! Can you stop now!" Pei Zhimao was caught off guard, coughing again and again after being shaken by Hao Yi, begging with a bitter face.

"I said Grand Marshal Pei, Senior Pei, Uncle Pei, Uncle Pei, think about it quickly. If we delay, we will really become the other party's prisoners of war!" Hao Yi let go of his big hand in resignation, He made a gesture of burning incense and worshiping Buddha, and said pitifully to Pei Zhimao.

"Don't worry, uncle, let me think about it first!" Pei Zhimao waved his hand to comfort Haoyi, then went straight to the side, frowning at the passage wall and muttering.

Seeing this, Hao Yi had no choice but to cast his eyes on the other officers beside him.But those officers seemed to be afraid that Haoyi would jump over suddenly, and shook them like a sieve. One by two, they quickly avoided Haoyi's gaze, and lowered their heads as if they were thinking hard.

"Damn it, it's the first time for me to command an entire fleet with such ambitions. Is it over like this? You're so old-fashioned!" Seeing that everyone was at a loss, Hao Yi couldn't help but admire The opponent's commander was shrewd and sophisticated, and squatted on the ground depressed, to see if he could find some ants to play with.

Hao Yi can only say that he knows a little bit about space battleships. Even if he has abnormal abilities, in this vast space, facing the fleet with extremely powerful and fierce firepower, he may only end up being blasted into scum .In order to be able to turn defeat into victory, in the final analysis, he can only rely on the entire fleet in his hand, which is broken but still has a certain combat power.But losing the means of communication with other warships right now is like cutting off all the nerves that transmit information in the brain. Hao Yi and others cannot command the entire fleet and launch a surprise attack on the other party at the same time.

"Yes!" Just when Haoyi was extremely depressed, Pei Zhimao, who was fascinated by the wall, suddenly punched his fists and yelled loudly.

"Uncle Pei, have you thought about it?" Hao Yi, who was picking at the seam of the steel armor floor, raised his head and asked happily when he heard the movement.

"I have an idea, but I just don't know if it will work or not!" Pei Zhimao walked up to Haoyi and said with his eyebrows still tightly locked.

"Don't worry about what makes sense, let's talk about it first!" Hao Yi hurriedly got up and urged.

"Lantern language!" Pei Zhimao said two words in a deep voice that made Haoyi confused. [

"Lantern language? What stuff?" Hao Yi blinked his little eyes and asked in astonishment.

"Marshal, did you mean that kind of very old communication lamp language?" A staff officer suddenly realized what he said.

"That's right! Right now, apart from the long-distance communication system in the bridge, the rest of the entire battleship only has an internal communication channel, which cannot be directly used to contact other warships!" Pei Zhimao nodded seriously and explained: "After much deliberation, I can only use the navigation lights at a specific location outside the battleship to send light messages, so that I can hope to restore contact with other battleships!"

"Wait, can any of you tell me what the hell is this lamp language? Can this thing be used to convey information?" Listening to the conversation between Pei Zhimao and the staff officers, Hao Yi rubbed his hands anxiously Started, asked eagerly.

"Grandpa, come with me!" Pei Zhimao subconsciously looked up at the gate of the command center when he heard the words, and quickly pulled Haoyi into a dark corner of the passage, and explained in a low voice.

It turns out that this ancient lamp language is a great invention in the early days of mankind.Before the invention of the wire, it was similar to semaphore, sign language and other acoustic communication methods, and it was also an effective communication tool used by humans to transmit information over long distances.For example, on the vast sea, two ships separated by a certain distance can communicate with each other by using the language of lights.Its working principle is also very simple, which is to use the intermittent and flickering of the lights to make signals of different lengths to convey information.In a sense, it can be used to completely replace Morse code.

"Damn, is this thing really useful?" After hearing Pei Zhimao's explanation, Hao Yi couldn't help asking with wide eyes.

"Should be useful!" Pei Zhimao obviously had some doubts in his heart, frowning and said worriedly: "However, this ancient lamp language has disappeared for a long time, and now it only exists in the textbooks of warship officers. I can't guarantee it. Can my captain's men understand the language of the lights?"

Pei Zhimao's worry was unreasonable.In that era of highly developed technology, people have long been accustomed to directly transmitting information through electronic signals such as various wires and electricity.It's hard to say whether those senior officers of warships who have received rigorous training can remember the lights that only exist in textbooks.

"Why do you care so much! If it's useful, try it first!" Hao Yi was a little impatient with Pei Zhimao's indecision, so he dragged Pei Zhimao carelessly and was about to go out.

"Wait, my lord, I haven't finished yet!" Pei Zhimao hurriedly held Haoyi, and continued to say in a deep voice: "One more thing, the distance between us battleships is too far, I'm afraid there is only a small distance around the flagship. Only some warships can see the light message from us!"

"You mean, the message we send cannot be received by all warships in the entire fleet at the same time?" Hearing Pei Zhimao's words, Hao Yi couldn't help frowning.If all warships cannot receive the message from the flagship at the same time, it means that it will be difficult for other warships to act in line with the flagship, which is undoubtedly another very troublesome problem.

"Yes, my lord!" Pei Zhimao spread his hands helplessly and said, "However, apart from the lamp language, I'm afraid there is no other good way to contact other warships in time!"

"Wait, I think this problem is easy to solve!" Haoyi's eyes flashed, and he said to Pei Zhimao: "As long as we can contact other warships, we can agree on a time in advance, and then we will start operations at the same time to take back the warships." The command and control of each warship, and then launch a surprise attack on the enemy fleet!"

"Uh, why didn't I think of that!" Pei Zhimao widened his eyes in surprise and said in astonishment.

"Because you're an old cat!" Hao Yi said sarcastically, and then urged again: "Okay, stop talking about the cat, the other party's main fleet is probably coming soon! Hurry up and try to use that kind of light language to contact other warships!"

A moment later, in the battleship closest to the flagship, the captain of the battleship and a group of staff officers also gathered at the gate of the command and control center, all sighing and frowning.

"Captain, hurry, go and have a look!" At this time, a lieutenant in charge of commanding an anti-aircraft turret outside the battleship ran over in a hurry and stammered to the captain.

"What happened?" The captain stood up suddenly, frowning and asked in a deep voice.

"I saw a navigation light flashing rhythmically near the flagship bridge, as if it was sending some message!" The lieutenant reported panting.

"Twinkle, twinkle?" The captain pondered for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said joyfully, "It's the lamp language! Come on, go and see with me, the commander must be giving some new order!"
