At this moment, that dense torpedo field came into play.
Who would have thought that as they were traveling smoothly, they'd suddenly jump out of a hyperspace lane, and then be surrounded on all sides by torpedoes?
The unlucky ones got blown up immediately, while the luckier ones were too scared to move and were then picked off by the pirates.
Of course, this tactic initially wasn't considered sophisticated, but later on, during the invasion of the Tyran Swarms, the landmine tactic showed its effectiveness.
However, relatively speaking, it was easier to just blow up the massive destination planets so they'd never reach the station.
Duanmu Huai was not a pirate, but this tactic indeed worked when fighting the Tyran Swarms, especially as this Star Territory's technology focused on hyperspace travel, so he figured it might be useful and discussed it with Aikute.
