In a real battle, "textbook operation" was basically impossible.
Actual combat and theory were fundamentally not the same thing. Every battlefield was complicated and changed in an instant.
The other side's performance was simply too perfect. Xiao Hu instinctively made a judgment: it had to be unmanned! Strictly speaking, the other side's operations were slightly inferior to its own, but Big Head Butterfly did not believe anyone's operations could surpass its own!
Even in the field of artificial intelligence, it would not fall behind anyone.
So the other side had to be unmanned... It could not help it; it was just that confident! Qu Jianlei agreed with its guess as well. "Let's assume that for now. There's no need to verify it. No matter the result, it won't affect our counterattack."
Since they had already decided to counterattack, the truth was not important.
Since the other side was so strong in digital control, exposing Xiao Hu's existence because of that would be even worse.
As the starships struggled to hold on, the seven pursuing Attack Ships closed to within five hundred thousand kilometers.
The one large and three small starships suddenly returned fire together, targeting two Small Ships.
In battles directed by Xiao Hu, it rarely focused fire on a single starship. That made attack efficiency too low; it preferred one-against-many attacks.
