Him and their stars

Yu Lian thought carefully and felt that he should have a way to make the New China Sector accept these "refugees". The Lords of the Earth should think that these people are all descendants of the pirate group and are inherently unstable. If they are to be placed in the Terra star region or a hinterland like Atlantis, they must be Not too happy. However, it would be no problem if it was left in a remote area like New China. In this way, the Blue Star Community can also establish itself as a responsible big country, and the Lords of the Earth will definitely be very satisfied.

Of course, the Empire and Alliance may have some doubts. Well, it depends on the attitude of the palace leader.

Sure enough, I heard the Pirate King say: "Yes! The fastest route from here to New China is of course through the Terosa Star Gap, from the Feimo Star Territory to the territory of the Cirque Kingdom, and from New Atlanti Sri Lanka enters the community. But this road is not safe."

"There is another way, which is to leave from the Alliance." Yu Liandao: "However, it is difficult for the Alliance to allow your fleet to transit. Unless you dismantle your battle fleet and disarm yourself. Moreover, it will definitely A considerable number of MPs will demand that you be arrested and brought to Nephi for trial.”

After all, the reward list for the palace leader was issued by the Galactic Civilization Council and is used worldwide. He himself and some core leaders are also on the Guerrilla Association's wanted list.

"At least, it is difficult for you to escape trial. Even if you can escape death with the intervention of powerful figures in the alliance, you will not be able to escape prison. The rest of your body will also be monitored and house arrest, and occasionally you will be pulled out as a prisoner. For mascots. Can you accept it?" Yu Lian asked again.

"Impossible! So, this time you destroy the Snake Den, I will lead the 30,000 old battalion brothers under my command as the vanguard." The Pirate King shrugged: "It depends on them who will die and who will live to make meritorious service and receive a title. Then, I will take the remaining subordinates and surrender to the empire."

"...Many imperial nobles have died in your hands." Yu Liandao.

"Many imperial nobles have died in your hands, and they are all celebrities." Gong Ao said with a smile.

Yu Lian glanced at the other party meaningfully again: "Well, you are a human, and you are also a psyker. If you make great achievements in the Battle of Snake Lair, it is in line with the taste of the empire. Not to mention His Majesty the Emperor, even if it is an election The emperor has the right to bypass the Royal Parliament and the courts and grant you a pardon."

"I don't dare to hope for the emperor. How can a rough man like me go to Longlin Palace to meet the saint?" Gong Ao quickly shook his head.

"Then you have to find an elected emperor. Well, I heard that in addition to the basin of crystal coral you gave me last time, you also gave the skull fossil of an ancient ether dragon to King Wilente opposite?"

"Well, actually I gave gifts to all the elected emperors." Gong Ao grinned: "Actually, there are some souvenirs that only the Helix Nebula can produce, and the men of the empire like these rare things. .”

He paused and then said: "However, King Wilente has always been very appreciative of me. He even said that if I was willing to accept his appointment, he would set aside a place for me to station troops in his own territory. .”

"Then the organization will become the vassal tribe of the vassal king. However, the treatment of the vassal tribe is not necessarily worse than that of the imperial army. It just depends on whether the master has money and whether he is generous. King Wilente should not have this Problem. Moreover, his retainers lack generals who can lead troops. You can just make up for his shortcomings." Yu Lian nodded.

"That's why I feel so much pressure! I'm just a pirate, and I've never commanded any large army..." Gong Aodang showed an expression that could be described as distressed.

"It doesn't matter if you said it yourself." Yu Lian smiled.

"Huh? I said it myself, doesn't it count?"

"Yes! Your record of sneaking into Toss's merchant ship eight years ago, lurking all the way directly into the Nansen Interstellar Market Harbor, burning transport ships from several countries, and looting Nansen's treasury was included in the textbooks of the Royal Military Academy. Oh." Yu Lianda said.

The so-called Nansen Interstellar Market Harbor refers to one of the largest space cities in the middle of the Spiral Nebula Channel. It is an autonomous trading port hosted by the Galactic Civilization Council.

Having said this, Yu Lian had to admire the empire's broadmindedness in some aspects. In that Nansen attack, apart from the Toss Merchant Group, the empire suffered the greatest losses. The rest of the countries hated the instigator, the palace chief, with gnashing of teeth. The empire, in addition to gnashing its teeth with hatred for him, openly included this battle in military textbooks and studied it as a model for airport surprise operations.

Marshal Durenkou, the spear-carrying minister of the Imperial Generalissimo at the time, even said in front of reporters: "He (Gong Ao) is a **** villain, and he should hang his head on the highest space city in the sky to dry! But, that XXX things are done really well!"

Yu Lian then smiled and said: "Speaking of which, you also liberated 10,000 slave workers who were shipped to the Empire's Helot Star, and also distributed most of the cash in Nansen's vault to the poor in the city?"

Gong Ao said helplessly: "Actually, our main purpose is to rob the bank. The slave workers rebelled on their own. Well... the poor people nearby came to pick up the gold coins that we couldn't take away, and I can't control them."

"Look, great wisdom, great courage and great benevolence and righteousness. This is not the appearance of a famous general. What is it?" Yu Lian gave a thumbs up.

The big pirate king pondered for a moment, and suddenly raised his chest: "Since it is my cousin who said it, I will accept it. Hahaha, you are truly worthy of me!"

Yu Lian found that for the first time he had met an opponent who could compare with him in terms of integrity, and a sense of intimacy really arose spontaneously.

"Furthermore, in this battle, he is the only emperor-elect sitting on the front line, so many things will be fine. As long as the promise he made personally, it should still be fulfilled."

Generally speaking, although King Wilente is a two-way plug, although he has a disgustingly handsome style that should have left the group, although he always likes to laugh, his smiles are often fake. However, putting aside personal emotions and differences in compatibility, King Wilente can indeed serve as a template for a "good king" who is polite and virtuous. He has always been very kind to his own people, and has never lacked titles, honors and treatment.

"...King Wilente is indeed very sincere. However, in the past few days, there is a Lieutenant General Humolai in the empire. I don't know where he got my private terminal code and sent it to me. A secret letter. Said to be an invitation sent to me on behalf of his lord."

"Lieutenant General Xiumolai?" Yu Lian wanted to show his teeth.

"Yes. Lieutenant General Endric Humolet, Military Ombudsman First Class of the Imperial Privy Council."

"That's a temporary position, but my real job is actually King Suliuka's palace minister."

What the hell, that orange cat is obviously still in the New World, why are its claws so long?

"What are the conditions he offered?"

"All my men must be dispersed, but all the soldiers of the old battalion have formal military positions in the Forbidden Forces and officially obtain citizenship within three years of service. All leaders have at least the title of a third-class knight. My words, hold on. Viscount Sword, Major General of the Empire's Forbidden Army, if he can make a contribution, he may obtain a hereditary territory before retiring. Also, all psykers have the opportunity to enter the Knights to study." Gong Ao pondered for a moment: "In addition, she also As she said, she has designated some exclusive development zones in her territory and implemented some new economic policies. My people can move there and live there. She guarantees safety and supplies along the way, and everyone has settlement expenses. , they will definitely provide housing and jobs when they arrive.”

Yu Lian sighed with emotion: "She is quite magnanimous, but it is indeed her style."

"...Yes, that Highness didn't offer a price that was so high that it made people panic, as if to win people's hearts. Instead, he just offered a hope that looked very solid." Gong Ao sighed.

"So, what are your own thoughts?" Yu Lian looked into the other person's eyes.

The Pirate King said with a bitter face: "That's why I want to ask my little cousin! Is His Royal Highness King Suliuka a trustworthy person? Is he a lord worth following?"

"What are you asking me for?" Yu Lian's smile suddenly fell.

"This... uh, the whole universe knows about it! Don't you know what jokes are popular in the Empire recently?"

Yu Lian said with a poker face that showed no emotion: "I haven't heard of it, I don't care, and I don't want to hear it now. Of course, putting aside these unreasonable rumors, she will be a saint, at least have the ability to become a saint. The potential of a master. Of course, if you are not so ambitious, it may be very tiring to follow such a master."

The Pirate King nodded clearly, also withdrew his smile, and changed his official title: "Then, General Yu, let's talk about business. My fourth master, Master Baoxin..."

"The one from the Engineers Guild?"

"Yes, he led the engineering team to participate in the daily maintenance of the snake den."

"...The more I get to know this World-Wide Snake, the more I feel that their style has plummeted. Do you think the maintenance work of the majestic snake lair and mysterious mobile fortress should be outsourced?"

"Of course they have strong technical capabilities, and they have research laboratories, laboratories, arsenals and even shipyards. But when it comes to engineering and maintenance levels, who doesn't know about the 800 stars within ten light years of the Spiral Cross Nebula? This is Master Baoxin’s craftsmanship.”

The Pirate King gave Yu Lian a thumbs up on the spot.

This is somewhat convincing. In another timeline of the future, the president and top thug of the Omnic Brotherhood is Samos, but the top tech master is actually the Master of Vanadium Heart. He didn't know that this old man actually held a top position on Gong Ao's mountain.

"Moreover, it is only maintenance work for some peripheral defense facilities. It does not involve the core of the fortress. Perhaps, in the eyes of the masters of the World Serpent, this can also establish a good relationship with other forces in the nebula. In fact, Although the World Serpent is very secretive, he is not an extreme mystic, but he has done a lot of business with us. We space moles hiding in the Spiral Cross Nebula, not a thousand people have ever been to the snake's den. There are always eight hundred." Gong Ao said.

Yu Lian sighed with emotion: "Sure enough, Jianghu is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relations!"

Even snakes are not exempt from vulgarity.

But, then again, isn't the sworn enemy of the Omnic Brotherhood, the Cyborg Order that was born out of the Fourteenth Workshop, the sworn enemy of the World Serpent?

Yu Lian felt that the evil spirit in this was too great. If it had been someone else, he would have felt that the other person was plotting against him. However, for the sake of my relatives, I asked directly.

Gong Ao showed a confused look: "However, although Mr. Baoxin is a member of the Engineers Guild, he is not a prosthetic! I have dealt with all the masters of the Omnic Brotherhood and the Fourteenth Workshop , the relationship between the two parties is indeed not good, but I have never heard of any irreconcilable conflicts! They have occasionally collaborated on projects."

...Okay, I was misled again by the memory of another timeline. So, what happened in these short decades?

Then, they saw that Gong Ao had opened a structural diagram of the fortress. Of course, it was only the outer outline. In terms of the level of detail, it is really far inferior to the one that Yani took out.

"There is actually a weak point here." He pointed to a point on the outside.

"Oh?" Yu Lian was a little surprised. During the previous combat meeting, the siege experts from the Three Kingdoms meditated around the fortress structure diagram that Miss Bei took out. They did come up with some combat plans, but they were not included here.

"In this area, I remember there is a floating fortress cannon, one hundred and twenty-eight turbo laser groups, and a hidden hangar exit."

Of course, this is what Yani's drawing said. Now after so many years, I don't know what it has been changed into.

The leader of Gongda nodded: "That's right. This A-11 area is equivalent to the artillery defense position of Snake Lair, and the outer layer is also covered with fluid armor and force field shield. Putting aside the secondary guns, let's just talk about this gun The floating fortress guns, including four high-power positron main guns, can swim on the fluid armor and form a complete shield for the entire sector on the left side of the fortress."

"There are eight such artillery positions in the whole snake pit." Yu Liandao: "What a hedgehog."

Of course, the same sentence remains. After so many years, one or two of the eight artillery positions may have been scrapped. Otherwise, Snake Lair would not have hired foreign aid to maintain it. However, as a military chief, the basic quality is to expect leniency from the enemy. If you really expect that the opponent has any weapons that cannot be used, then that is exactly the way of thinking of the Showa staff.

Moreover, no matter how hard this snake hole is, it cannot be comparable to the original "Devil's Throat" fortress. But similarly, it is impossible for the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces to really confront a mighty fleet of one or two thousand ships in the Spiral Nebula.

"So, where is the weakness you mentioned?" Yu Lian asked.

"The masters of World Snake hope to improve the hangar so that it can command and maintain a large number of drones."

Yu Lian nodded. It would be strange if the World Snake did not have advanced drone technology.

"The other party is an expert in the construction of drone equipment. However, in terms of engineering transformation, Mr. Fan Xin is good at it. During the process of transforming the hangar, he discovered a design problem." Gong Ao asked. The structure diagram of the fortress was expanded again, and a key point was marked on a location: "This is it. There is a small energy outlet here."

Yu Lian shivered, wondering why this scene sounded so familiar.

"Of course, this outlet is protected by a force field shield. However, small combat aircraft can physically pass through the shield and approach here. If bombs are dropped inside through this outlet, it can..."

"You can directly attack the main reactor and bring down the entire fortress, right?" Yu Lian said listlessly.

"How is this possible? Whose fortress would be so retarded in its design! Even though I am a layman, I know this!" Gong Ao glanced at Yu Lian suspiciously, almost showing an expression like he was sizing up a retarded person.

Of course, considering that it was his cousin, he still explained: "Actually, this heat exhaust port is for the reactor of the fortress gun. However, the heat exhaust pipe is very close to the automatic ejection chain of the drone hangar next to it. We As long as a disintegration reaction warhead is used, it is possible to penetrate the pipe and attack the opposite hangar."

Yu Lian suddenly realized that this was a more reasonable setting.
