Him and their stars

Indeed, Green Ocean Star is a livable planet with a permanent population of more than three billion. It has beautiful scenery and abundant products. It is not only the capital of the Gate of Glory sector, but also several major sectors around the empire, the Perseus Treaty Organization countries, and L3 The most important transit place in the New World after the Star Gate, you can imagine how wealthy it is.

If the Green Ocean Star is lost, even if it is only lost for a week, the reputation of the Galactic Empire will definitely be shaky. After that, even if the imperial fleet swarmed in and cut all the predators who dared to jump into the tiger's mouth into pieces, they would never be able to recover the losses.

As a result, the main force of the Imperial Army, which had already fought several battles with a predator fleet in the star sector and the extreme border, finally understood that the enemy force they thought was the outpost fleet was clearly the side force that attracted their attention.

Without the unified command of King Slein, commanders from different systems such as the Guards, the Defense Forces, and the Sector Guard Fleet had a short-term debate about the current situation. By the time they really reached a consensus and received orders from the Generalissimo, twelve hours had passed.

These twelve hours may be decisive for the current battle situation.

After the main fleet set off for Green Ocean Star, the decoy raiders changed their previous strategy of flying kites and launched a rather violent attack.

However, anyone with a clear mind knows that the opponent's attack is not to achieve success, but to delay the time for one's own team to rush to support.

At the same time, King Slein was suddenly assassinated on Green Ocean Star, triggering a human riot. Strange plagues and wild animal attacks have also occurred there, and this planet with a population of three billion has also fallen into a state of turmoil.

Of course, after all, the empire is an evil centralized authoritarian system. It is neither boiled nor oily. Its administrative system and garrison and security system are still very efficient. It is not just because of the death of a big leader or the outbreak of a plague. Complete collapse. But what is certain is that the local government has done its best just to maintain the basic stability of the planet, let alone organize resistance to the upcoming invasion of predators.

In short, the current situation of Green Ocean Star does require outside reinforcements.

While the Imperial Fleet was dealing with the raids by the Predator Division, it had to ensure that the sector would not collapse facing the extreme frontier, and at the same time rush to rescue the Green Ocean Star as quickly as possible. Generally speaking, the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes. No, the last time Mr. Duba received information about the war situation on the Empire's side was that a short-term Imperial fleet wanted to quickly drive away the enemy behind it and attacked rashly, but was seized of the opportunity to form an ambush. , many ships and personnel were lost.

"The combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army is really not as good as before! Although their training is still there and their equipment is better, but they haven't experienced a war for a while, their officers always feel very out of control!"

Mr. Duba probably really regarded Yu Lian as a friend. He had never fought in a war before, yet he still dared to speak so brazenly about the most powerful armed group in the galaxy. Of course, this may also be a way for him to deliberately bring the two of them closer.

In any case, if the empire really loses Green Ocean Star, as a very motivated "businessman", he is still happy to see its development.

"But, this is meaningless." Yu Lian stared at the star map and muttered.

"You say? It's meaningless?" Duba couldn't help but be startled.

"Yes, it is meaningless to the predators." Yu Lian raised his head and said firmly: "If the predators really capture Green Ocean Star, even if they only occupy it for a few days, it will be enough for them to eat. .But what happens next?”

Mr. Duba did not speak and was lost in thought. However, this kind of military strategic change in the entire star region is not within the scope of his expertise.

"Green Ocean Star is a treasure, but why is it not a burden? If too much time is really wasted and it is blocked by the imperial fleet, no matter how much money, food and people are snatched, what is the use? Yu Lian said to Mr. Duba: "Or is it that the alliance has already spoken and asked the Perseus Convention to allow the plunderers to enter and take refuge from their side?"

"You are so witty! I am just an ordinary salesman, how can I know about such a big deal in the world?" Mr. Duba suddenly burst into laughter: "It's just that any person with conscience, knowledge, loyalty and sense of justice , will never collude with predators. This is the bottom line of a civilized race!"

Indeed, if the Perseus Treaty countries dare to open their borders to predators, the Alliance will be the first to destroy them.

"But in this case, why are the plunderers? To take down a handful of Green Yangshuang and then be surrounded and annihilated?" In Yu Lian's impression, the great plunderer khan of the Ero people, Tomitelli Massege Tai is not the type of crazy woman!

"Yes! Why is this..." Mr. Duba also fell into deep thought.

But no matter what the predators wanted to do, at least it was certain that the entire Gate of Glory was in chaos. No matter what Yu Lian and the others want to do, now is the best opportunity.

Yu Lian was still going to drive the ship to have a look there. If the situation is critical, retreat to the Abyss Nebula for refuge. Duba could only wish the former good luck and hope that there would be such a win-win deal next time.

The mercenaries and staff sent by the business group unloaded the food, energy packages and various weapons from the cargo ship and filled the Scarlet Throne's warehouse. They escorted the plunderers aboard the ship with live ammunition for a year.

It was obvious that the business group was preparing to transport these prisoners as livestock. But this has always been the basis of population trade in this universe, and everyone has long been used to it. In comparison, the places where the looters provided slave workers could not compare to the warehouses where livestock were transported. As a result, when they saw that they were about to be transferred to another ship, they made a brief commotion. However, under the spirit infusion rods of the mercenaries in power armor and the dark muzzles of their guns, they all supported it. Angered.

During this period, most of the predators only had one meager meal every day. Their physical fitness was at a point where they could walk, but they really had no energy to resist.

Moreover, after so many days, they have experienced riots, brainwashing, working in shifts, and someone wearing a heraldic machine to fight in and out, and they have already become very honest.

Yu Lian stood on the side of the ship with his hands folded, looking at the scene in front of him. Tens of thousands of predators with forlorn expressions and blank vision stepped onto the traffic bridge and onto the transport ship on the opposite side. Once the toughest thugs and criminals in the universe, they are now nothing more than animals.

To be honest, Yu Lian did have the idea of ​​recruiting some people from the captives of the looters. For example, Mr. Haita, the second officer who had been very cooperative with him in the past, was a talented person who knew current affairs very well. Another example is the Waying stormtrooper captain named Lin Jier. The ability of someone who can serve as a charge captain on the bearded demon's flagship is obvious.

However, considering that transforming bandits is actually a systematic project, I really don't have the time now. In comparison, it would be more cost-effective to establish relationships with regular mercenary organizations and talk about life and the future with young quasi-officers.

However, what surprised Yu Lian was that the Waying charge captain named Lin Jier requested to see him one last time before the merchant ship left.

Yu Lian decided to meet each other.

He remembered: that night, in the cabin where he was being held, some arrogant and arrogant leader of the looters was bossing around again and snatching precious meals from several seriously injured people. It was this Waying man who couldn't stand it anymore. He took the lead in launching a "riot".

"I originally thought that you instigated us to kill the original leaders in order to recruit subordinates from among us. I was even ready to be a retainer to an empire's astral knight. This is very important to me. , this is the best future! I was full of expectations." His face was full of bitterness, as if "it was a wrong payment after all."

"I am a plunderer, I do evil without any calculation, and I deserve to have such a day... But why is this?" He looked at Yu Lian longingly.

Whether it is the noble lords of the empire, the knights of the Astral Realm from a well-born family, or even the big plutocrats of the alliance, when they want to accept servants and retainers, don't they all appreciate those social people who are capable, aware of current affairs, and have seen blood at the same time? ? Isn't it just like me?

Although I am a predator... I am not a bearded demon, a troll, or an Elo demon. I am just a Vaing. Isn't this easy to operate? What's more, even these former predators who were born into the three major clans, there are many examples of being captured by some big shot and being whitewashed!

So why did you sell me out again? This is different from what was promised!

Up to now, most of the predators on the ship still think that someone should be an astral knight born from a famous family in the empire, and he is also the kind who is very favored.

Again, if a person has a heraldry machine, an atomic light spear, and a dragon, what else can he be than an astral knight?

Yu Lian understood why the other party reacted like this, but he just wanted to laugh, so he sneered: "Apart from bandits who rob the weak and servants who bow to the strong, have you never considered the third option? I When I told you to kill those leaders who do all kinds of evil, didn't you see the third option? Didn't you feel a sense of relief? Didn't you start thinking about life and the world? What's wrong now? Are you not used to thinking? , or still don’t dare to think?”

The Waying warrior was stunned on the spot when he was asked, and his whole body seemed to shrink. He even looked more rickety than when he was led out by Yu Lian with a light spear.

"I've heard that your list is not on the wanted list. That means that you may still have a future and have time to think about it. So, go find a third way by yourself. Wait until you figure it out. Yes, maybe we can meet one day."

Yu Lian thought about it again and picked up two booklets bound with printing paper: "While you are serving your sentence, you will not have personal information terminals. Use paper ones over there. Maybe they can be kept longer."

The Waying men returned to their own team in a daze, and mechanically followed their fellow victims onto the boat. He sat down in a corner of the cabin and realized immediately that his life as a slave had just begun.

However, he still carefully opened the book tucked in his lapel, only to see "A Brief History of the Galaxy Slave Trade" and "Analysis of Slaves of All Classes in the Galaxy" written on the cover.

Although Lin Jier is still a martial artist, he has actually read the book seriously, and of course he understands what "a brief history" means. However, he never thought that one day someone would write a history book about slaves. Of course, he actually doesn't understand what "class" is. My intuition told me that this could never be a literal meaning. I suddenly felt that this word was filled with a sense of uneasy power, and my scalp suddenly became numb.

These two books are, of course, far from being called books. The former only has some simple outlines and final meals and accommodation, and lacks necessary argument support and logical establishment of a smooth and contagious discussion in language. The latter is the material prepared for Mr. Qi's "Original Book", which is a paper of about 100,000 words, which Yu Lian slowly coded out in his free time during this period.

It must be admitted that one of the biggest benefits of becoming a psyker is that you are full of energy and energy. You can indeed spend a lot more time every day than ordinary people, and you can indeed do more things.

Also, don’t think that slaves just don’t have a “class”. The people who make coffee for Emperor Elithel in the Dragon's Palace are also slaves, and the people who feed the dragons in the Great Plains of Relandiron are also slaves. King Thorane even has an "undead army" composed of slaves under his command. However, those who were burdened by heavy labor and poverty and disease in mines and factories to the point where their bones were overwhelmed were, of course, slaves.

Some slaves can become prime ministers and capitalists, but some slaves can only die in despair, so humble that they are not even as good as machine parts worth 100 yuan a piece.

So, how can there be no "class" in this?

Yu Lian felt that in order to truly formulate a social revolutionary program like the "Original Book", we must first analyze the composition and origin of each social class as clearly as possible.

Hi, the Kangmei Revolution is indeed much more troublesome than the Kepi Revolution, and the ideological preparation required is much more complicated. After all, no matter how turbulent, exciting and heroic the latter is, in the final analysis it is just an uneven distribution of accounts by the rulers. Only the former is truly earth-shaking.

Yu Lian felt that handing over the two short articles he had written to a looter bandit leader could be regarded as a casual move. If there is a chance in the future, he will distribute more essays.

There are too many idle chess, and even if most of them don't work, who knows whether it will suddenly turn into a killing calamity for slaying the dragon?

Speaking of which, Mr. Qi has already started to create the "Book of the Original". Last time when I was watching the Empire Star Bomb at Luyuan Star, I contacted him. An old man and a young man complained about how the empire knew how to show off its power, and at the same time discussed the beginning of the "Original Book".

He has to prepare for the election of the New China District and write a book. Is his body really okay?

Yu Lian was thinking wildly while watching one of the "casual moves" he had made, and followed a large group of looters who were confused about the way forward, all boarding the merchant group's cargo ship. Then, it was time for the other party to say goodbye.

Mr. Duba took a key from his assistant and mysteriously forced it into Yu Lian's hand: "Container No. 8, shelf 11, in your D12 warehouse, as long as this can be opened."

"This is it?" Yu Lianqi asked.

"Since I gave Miss Li a meeting gift, of course I have to give it to you." The second-level salesman once again showed a warm and honest smile that made people feel like spring breeze: "In the field of occultism, the business group really has nothing to be proud of. But here are just some usable accessories, but I still have some experience. Don’t feel any pressure. When you have time, we would be really grateful if you could provide us with some available data and your practical experience. It’s over!”
