The last human in the universe

Chapter 198 make a lot of money

At this moment, Li Heng suddenly remembered some things that happened in a certain war in the history books he had read about the era of the earth country.

A certain country invaded another country and built a large number of strongholds in the invaded country.

When the invaders have the upper hand, these strongholds can control a large area around the stronghold.But with the desperate resistance of the invaded country, the invaders gradually lost their advantage.But the upper echelon is still frenzied, and still orders to stick to the stronghold.

The soldiers in the stronghold will die if they abandon the stronghold and flee.If you continue to stick to your stronghold, you will be unable to resist the resistance at all. Besides, your own logistics has already collapsed, and you will die sooner or later if you lack food and clothing.

In this case, an incredible thing happened.

The soldiers in the stronghold began to trade with the rebel forces, trading their own arms for the food of the rebels, in order to survive.What's more, the intruders in the stronghold even began to pay "protection fees" to the invaded in order to allow their own side to stay here.

The most unbelievable thing is that some invader soldiers went to the landowner's house in the invaded country to become tenant farmers, working desperately, asking for nothing more than a bite.

It seems that the identities of the intruder and the invaded are reversed, bizarre and unbelievable.

Now, of course Li Heng knows that this is because the will of the upper and lower levels of one party is no longer unified, so this strange thing happened.

So... Now, is the will of the upper echelons of the expeditionary force no longer unified with the will of the lower echelons fighting on the front line?
Are these big metal boxes they threw out... for life money?

At this moment, after throwing those large metal boxes, the enemy ship began to maneuver again, trying to escape.Just because the engine was damaged, the speed was extremely slow.

Weisang gritted his teeth and looked at the external observation screen, but prayed earnestly in his heart.

"I just want to live, I just want to live! I know that your logistics supplies have been very tight, especially water-I know that your intelligent life also needs water. These metal boxes are filled with pure water and ice, and I will give it to you! I'll give it all to you! As long as you let me go!"

During these years of fighting, it is not that the expeditionary army has never obtained the enemy's corpse.Through dissection, etc., I have already roughly understood the enemy's body structure.

He didn't dare to really send out what he thought in his mind through communication equipment, because it would leave traces.The only thing he can pray for is that the enemy can understand what he means, and agree to his transaction request of "buying his own life with these materials".

This is the only way out he can think of!
As if there was some kind of spiritual understanding, after seeing these metal boxes, the other two friendly warships also stopped attacking the enemy ship.

Countless thoughts flashed through Li Heng's mind like lightning, and finally he gritted his teeth: "Salvage these metal boxes and see what's there!"

Deputy Captain Zhang Ruofei said in a deep voice, "It may be a conspiracy."

Li Heng said resolutely: "Salvage first, then talk about it! Until you confirm what it is, just keep it away from us!"

In order to cope with the ever-changing battlefield situation, each combat spaceship is equipped with small space vehicles and robots.Now comes in handy.

As a result, an "escape boat" was released, carrying a multifunctional robot and rushed towards the metal boxes.However, these boxes seemed to be designed for easy access. Without much effort, the robot had already opened the three metal boxes flying towards him.

Three metal boxes, all water ice!
Extremely pure water ice!Spectral analysis shows that it contains almost no impurities!
"bring back!"

Li Heng issued an order.The escape boat and the robot returned immediately.

At this moment, Li Heng was extremely sure that this must be the enemy's life money!
You know, for two strange civilizations, in such a place far away from any stars, if you want to give each other some gifts, then there is nothing wrong with sending water ice.

Weapons and antimatter energy are too dangerous, and they are too easy to cheat. The other party will definitely worry about whether there is any conspiracy in it, and there is a high probability that they will not accept it.The rest of the parts and the like, because of different specifications, there is a high probability that they cannot be used universally, let alone stationery and the like.

Only water, which is both safe and highly likely, is needed by any civilization.Moreover, water can be decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, and hydrogen can be directly used as energy.Although the efficiency is not as good as antimatter, it is better than safety.

Now, the enemy sent three boxes, about 25 tons of water to himself!As a matter of fact, the spaceship Li Heng was in was indeed short of water, and the soldiers hadn't even had a good wash for a long time!
Li Heng knew that not only himself, but also the rest of the friendly spaceships had a high probability of being like this.

At this moment, the enemy battleship was still slowly and desperately fleeing.A soldier thought for a while and said to Li Heng: "Captain, do you want to...?"

Li Heng knew what he meant.

No one stipulated that if the money for buying a life was collected, the enemy's life must be left behind.Why can't they collect money and kill again?
For the enemy, what kind of integrity should we talk about?

Our side has not opened for more than a month, and now we have finally caught a spaceship that is sure to go, what are we waiting for if we don't kill him?
Li Heng's heart was full of contradictions at the moment.He thought for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth.

"Let him go!"

"why!"

Several soldiers exclaimed together.

"I'm not talking about honesty. There is no honesty with the enemy." Li Heng said in a deep voice: "I was thinking, if we took the money for his life but still killed him, then... there will be enemies in the future Will you pay us for your life?"

Those soldiers were taken aback.

That's right... If the money for buying life can't buy life, the enemy will naturally not pay any more.And if the rule of "you can save your life if you pay for your life" is quietly spread among the enemy's frontline fighters, then how much fighting power will the rest of the fighters have when facing their own side? thought?
This can not only replenish the scarce water resources of one's own side, but also greatly disintegrate the enemy's will to fight!Moreover, within the enemy system at this moment, there must have been a phenomenon of disunity of will between the upper and lower levels—otherwise, how could such a thing as paying for life happen? ——At the time, this kind of behavior can even exacerbate this phenomenon!

After careful calculation, the benefits are endless!
Under Li Heng's explanation, the soldiers all figured this out.

Now, the only thing to worry about is whether the two friendly warships hidden in the dark can understand this, and whether they can also make the decision to "take money and release people".

If those two spaceships continued to attack, the enemy ship would still not be able to escape.

"My aptitude can only be regarded as mediocre among the captains of the Space Force, not outstanding. Even I can think of this, and my comrades should also be able to think of it... Even if the captain can't think of it, there is still the deputy captain. , and the soldiers, someone will always think of it."

At this moment, it was very strange that Li Heng began to worry about the fate of the enemy, and began to hope that the enemy would escape smoothly.

Perhaps his expectation played a role. Sure enough, the two friendly warships hidden in the dark also did not make any offensive moves.So this easily accessible enemy ship escaped from under Li Heng's nose.

"call……"

He let out a long breath.

"Random maneuver, diversion, concealment!"

"Yes!"

Li Heng knew that at this moment, certain changes within the enemy had reached a critical point from quantitative change to qualitative change, just like those weird and incredible things that happened in a certain invaded country in the era of the earth country. .

And all this is because of our tenacity, our will!It's all because we fought tenaciously under extremely unfavorable conditions, and finally forced the enemy to this point!

At this moment, Li Heng's heart was full of pride, full of pride.

At this moment, Li Heng no longer had any doubts in his heart that his side would surely win in the future.

Wissang stared nervously at the external observation equipment inside the spaceship until he confirmed that the spaceship he was on was already millions of kilometers away from the place under attack, and in the process, his own side had never been attacked. He finally let out a long breath, and finally had time to relax.

This whole process was like walking on the brink of hell.

"Unexpectedly, he actually survived..."

Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he became nervous again.He suddenly stood up straight in the weightless cabin, staring fiercely at the subhuman warriors in front of him.

The second-person soldiers were worried, not knowing what happened.

"Anyone who dares to speak out about today's matter will die! If we can keep the secret, we will not only be innocent, but also meritorious! You lowly people like bugs can also get some rewards!"

Dozens of people lowered their heads together, their voices were full of panic and eagerness: "Commander, we will follow your orders on what to do!"

"I will combine the records in our spacecraft to write a combat report, saying that we were besieged, fought hard, and finally saved the battleship and escaped, avoiding the loss of the expeditionary force! We can all be rewarded!"

Dozens of people looked at each other in blank dismay at this moment, and all became excited the next moment.

"And...is there such an operation?"

"My lord commander, your intelligence really is beyond description!"

"Commander, we listen to you in everything. If anyone dares to reveal the secret without your help, we will kill him!"

"Hmph, it's good to know how powerful it is."

Weisang snorted coldly, and immediately began to conceive how to write this battle report, which people to manage, what he would pay, and what he would get.

But in any case, this time it was profitable.And make a lot of money.
