Him and their stars
Chapter 724 The Gate of Glory is a mess
Mr. Duba went to see the "goods" with great anticipation. Judging by his high interest, it was obvious that he was going to see the cattle.
However, to be honest, when those looters were used as "currency" to exchange for the items Yu Lian needed, they were indeed no different from "animals".
"At least you gave them a way to live." Feifei comforted Yu Lian: "If they were captured by the empire in the Modan galaxy, none of them would survive for more than three years. But if they were sold to the Alliance side of the galaxy by the Toss business group, , if you say no, you can live for 5 years.”
Yu Lian always felt that Feifei was mocking him, but there was no evidence.
"And, at least there is no slavery in the Alliance itself. It is all under the banner of hard labor for criminals. This means at least a life limit. The plunderers captured by the Alliance were exempted from the crime after serving twenty years of hard labor and began to live as citizens. There are many examples of normal life. You gave them hope without being merciful, and you also helped us exchange for urgently needed supplies and available manpower," she added.
Well, indeed, from this perspective, the predators who are about to enter sweatshops, farms and mines, and even arenas and laboratories should theoretically have me to thank. When Yu Lian thought of this, he suddenly felt that he had stood on the moral high ground.
At this time, Feifei said again: "However, I originally thought that you provoked those plunderers to kill their leader in order to transform them and let them join us."
"Bandits are not ordinary oppressed working people. Once they have blood on their hands and do evil, it is not so easy to reform. However, they are not ordinary bandits, but institutional, systematic and disciplinary Predator group. I asked them to kill their leader, which only destroyed this systematic concept. In this way, at least they will gradually accept their fate as prisoners of war and slave labor, and then they will think more ." Yu Liandao.
"Then it will be more convenient for us to guard it, right?"
"That's it. But it's one thing to keep them from making trouble, and it's one thing to make them work. It's another thing to be a crew member. It's not like I saw the helmsman or engineer on my little red boat. The gunners are all wearing shackles, this is not the Roman era."
"Xiao Hong?" Feifei raised her eyebrows, then sighed: "Yu'er, don't worry about naming the boat. I will take everyone's opinions into consideration before engraving it again."
"...Well, it doesn't matter." Anyway, Yu Lian didn't expect to come up with a good ship name that everyone would accept, so he continued: "In comparison, mercenaries are more reliable."
"Of course, there are also students from the security company." Feifei smiled half-heartedly.
"Yes! There are also students from the security company." Yu Lian nodded seriously: "I am not only looking for a way out for the heinous thugs, but I am also responsible for the future of the young soldiers. I am the wisest person in the world. Mentor?"
The students Yu Lian and Mr. Duba mentioned before were the predecessors of the later Flag Guard Army of the Toss Merchant Group.
As we all know, the Toss United Merchant Nation, as one of the second-rate powers in the galaxy, actually does not have its own unified army. Its unified military protection is the responsibility of the Alliance. And every large enterprise and shipping group also has its own "security department."
These security guards are fierce. Equipped with externally powered mechas, fighter planes and even small and medium-sized escort warships with excellent performance, they can fight more than ordinary small countries.
However, in the face of a real military power, security is just security. In addition, since the security department is theoretically affiliated with major companies and does not have a unified command sequence, it can only deal with some small-scale pirates.
Yes, they are just small-scale pirates. If the ship group encounters a large fleet of pirates or even predators during its voyage, it will have no choice but to flee to the nearest galaxy where the Alliance fleet is located.
The majestic Toss United Merchant Group is also a second-tier member of the Galactic Civilization Council. It is also an established power with a history of a thousand years, but it is always bullied by pirates. Is this reasonable?
In short, a group of forces have indeed emerged within the business group, saying that in order to deal with pirates, a unified fleet of their own should be established.
This is really to deal with pirates and plunderers. I hope other countries, especially the alliance that provides military protection to business groups, will not think too much about it.
Of course, so far, this so-called national fleet of the merchant group has not even been reported to the supreme council meeting of the merchant group. It is still in the small-scale preparation stage, and even the basic military and political system has not been established.
However, they are indeed already doing work in this area. And the alliance probably doesn’t know yet.
As for why Yu Lian knew something that theoretically the alliance didn't know, nor did the highest level of the business group know?
In fact, things like building an army always have to go through many people, so it can't be said to be a secret anyway. Yu Lian estimated that the top leaders of the alliance already knew it, and the white-furred fox must also know it. The "military-building faction" on the business group side should also know that the alliance knows. The Alliance's intelligence services even knew that the merchants knew that they knew.
All in all, this is a delicate balance that everyone is happy to see after weighing interests.
But for Yu Lian, if the Toss Merchant Group's flagship protection team was established earlier, it would be a good thing for the community and himself.
After Yu Lian said this to Mr. Duba, there were more than 200 enthusiastic young people on board the Scarlet Throne, from all races, of whom less than one-third were Tollon. Although the average age (according to human standards) is no more than twenty-five years old, they are all young elites who have received military education and ship driving training, and have at least reached the average level of naval officers of various countries.
At least in terms of academic qualifications and familiarity with battleships, he is better than a scumbag who graduated from a public high school in a third-class ethnic private land. I don't know where he is.
It was obvious that these young men had been removed from the boats that Mr. Duba had brought with him. He is already trying his best to start with the naval seeds of these future business groups.
"These children are our future!" Mr. Duba held Yu Lian's hands in emotion and shook them: "I entrust our future to you. Mr. Yu, as long as they can have you With one tenth of the courage and one percent of the ability, the future of the business group will be promising."
"I hope you will still be our friend at that time." Yu Liandao.
"That's necessary." Duba gave another thumbs up.
Then, the two people laughed at the same time. Although they all know that things are unpredictable and the possibility of this being realized is really low, they do not delay their sincerity at this moment.
The Torun businessman pondered for a moment, and then said: "All the looter prisoners on the ship have been inspected. I have also installed newer restraint devices for them... They only wore some handcuffs before, and three layers were added outside the room. It's just an indoor door. Although there are more than 40,000 people, they don't dare to riot, probably because of your majesty."
"Even if it's me and a dragon, even if I kill 40,000 people by myself, I still can't take this ship." Yu Lian smiled.
Mr. Duba was not quite sure whether the other party was serious or joking, so he laughed even more heartily.
"This business is really going well, so I'll send you another piece of news. It's about the battle situation at the Gate of Glory. Now, unprecedented changes have taken place for everyone." He showed a mysterious smile. .
He is truly worthy of being a second-level salesman of the business group! Since we want to conduct business in the Abyss Nebula, we must also be familiar with the surrounding military situation.
"Look what you said, our Luopan Chamber of Commerce is a serious civilized enterprise, how could we have any business with the outlaws of the Abyss Nebula? I just wanted to see if I could explore a new trade channel, so I ventured here. . Then I met you by chance. All of this was guided by the spirit of the universe." He said seriously.
"At least this is the official report." He added sheepishly: "There is no way, these ships are the property of the merchant group, all contacts are automatically recorded, and the board of directors will conduct random checks from time to time. Over there with the alliance He is a black-skinned dog who conducts spot checks more frequently than the board of directors."
"Why are the officials of the alliance qualified to randomly check the ship records of your business group? Aren't you an ally of the alliance?" Yu Lian asked narrowly.
Mr. Duba pretended that he had not heard anything and continued: "Anyway, the Imperial Army has lost control over the Gate of Glory."
"Gate of Glory? The entire star region?" This news really shocked Yu Lian.
You must know that the Gate of Glory star area is not only the gate to the cantilever area where the Empire faces the Immortals, but it is also the location of Star Gate L3, which is the location of the "Gate of Glory". The largest strategic group in the empire is stationed here all year round, and its combat power is enough to beat the fleets composed of more than 20 countries of the Immortal Convention on the opposite side.
In addition, sitting here and responsible for all military and political affairs of the Gate of Glory Military Region is one of the only two active marshals among the current elected emperors, the 86th Slein King Borei III.
However, Yu Lian's evaluation of this vassal king is actually higher than that of another active marshal, King Soleyn.
To be honest, King Thoraine is not only the (currently) top expert among the elected emperors, but he is also a famous general who can invade and attack fire as fast as the wind. Although the use of troops is bold and brave, it still retains flexibility and strategy. However, he still has a fierce warrior style and lacks comprehensive thinking in all matters except military affairs. In terms of military affairs, foreign affairs and internal affairs, there are no reliable achievements.
If it weren't for the fact that the Gate of Glory couldn't do without a powerful man with both civil and military skills, King Slein would be more suitable to enter the Privy Council and control the overall situation.
Logically speaking, with such a versatile military and political person in charge of the affairs of the Gate of Glory, and with so many troops in hand, it should be impossible for anything to happen there.
"I have probably guessed the intention of the predators. Their large fleet will pass through the Abyss Nebula, pass the imperial army's defense area, and directly enter the hinterland of the star area. Catch them by surprise..." Yu Liandao.
"That's it. Now, the main fleet of the predators has entered the Gate of Glory! It defeated several border garrison fleets with its superior force and is currently approaching the direction of the Green Ocean." Mr. Duba said this. He showed a curious expression: "Sir, how did those large ships cross the Abyss Nebula?"
Yu Lian glanced at it and smiled: "That's a different price."
Mr. Duba blinked his round little eyes and sighed: "It seems that this is really not a secret that I can afford."
"No, given your current status, even knowing this secret would be of no benefit."
The Torun businessman didn't take it seriously, but showed a grateful expression: "This is a kind word, thank you very much."
"However, with the troops deployed by the empire in the Glory Sector and King Slein's ability, even if the predators are caught off guard, they shouldn't be taken advantage of so quickly, right?"
According to Yu Lian's initial calculation. Now that the predators have mastered the waterway of the Abyss Nebula, they can bypass the enemy's main force this time, and they can definitely rush into the hinterland of the star region and grab a big advantage. This place is much richer than Jijiang. As long as a few densely populated planets are captured, the benefits will far exceed the cost of sending troops.
In addition, by setting the most important border star field of the empire on fire, it might also make the allies of the Treaty of Immortals and even the empire behind them ready to make moves, which would indeed give a good blow to the empire's prestige.
Based on this alone, the newly ascended Great Khan is enough to secure his position.
However, Yu Lian never imagined that the empire would be in such a mess.
"Yes! Logically speaking, they shouldn't be able to...but King Slein is already dead."
This news was more shocking than what Yu Lian had heard before. He was stunned for three seconds before he couldn't help but pat his ears.
"...Dead?" The guy who later took charge of the Grand Marshal's Palace and the Privy Council died like this? Well, King Borei III of Slein did not have a very good reputation later on, because he had some disagreements with Queen Brunhilt's political opinions. He lived in seclusion in his own territory for the rest of his life, and even held meetings of the Privy Council and the Senate. Basically not attending.
He lived in seclusion in the territory for the second half of his life, and has been serving as the chairman of the university in his hometown. He has trained many talents and promoted a third-rate university in a place into a first-rate prestigious school.
When Yu Lianchuang came back, the contemporary Slein King Borei III, who had been out of politics for more than half a century, was still alive and kicking.
In short, whether he is a transitional figure between the two eras of Emperor Elithel and Queen Brunhilt, or an educator, he still represents a period of history and should be qualified to be included in history textbooks.
Then, just die?
"Well, he was assassinated. Just gone." Duba showed a sad expression: "His Highness was a good man!"
For a business group like them that wanders around the universe, an enlightened local military and political chief is naturally a good person. At least doing business will be much easier.
It is unclear what impact the death of King Slein will have on interstellar trade in the future, but what is certain is that the imperial army in the Gate of Glory sector did fall into brief chaos. A large number of the main fleets gathered on the border of the Jijiang Star Region, and they acted a bit dull for a while, and did not return to the hinterland of the Star Region immediately. By the time they received the order from the Generalissimo's Mansion, it was already a step too late.
Now, the reinforcement fleet coming from the border of the star sector and the hinterland of the empire is approaching the direction of Green Ocean Star, but no matter how you calculate it, they will be one step behind the main force of the predators.
Du Ba added: "I also heard that there seems to be a plague over there in Luyangxing, and it is quite chaotic now. If this continues, Luyangxing may not be able to survive."
Although he had a worried look on his face, it was difficult to hide his gloating mood in his small black bean-like eyes.
