"The DE-176 galaxy, there are three jump points......"
In the base command room, Barbarossa pointed to the interstellar map and said to the fat man and Chekov: "The connecting passage, in addition to the two edge passages of its own DE and the Bu when you came, there is also the Mars commercial passage. ”The fat man looked intently at the place where Barbarossa's finger was on the interstellar map.The galaxies connected to the three jump points in the pirate leader's mouth have been marked red.It looks like a few drops of red ink have been dripped on a white silk screen, rendering a large piece."
The Mars Commercial Seaway is a Class B waterway.It is one of the most important shipping lanes in the free world.It is centered on the Freeport of Mars and is connected to the Odin Commercial Seaway in the Eastern Star Field.Through the main passage between the Suss Empire and the Chakner Empire, it leads to the Northeast Star Field.From there, a detour can be made via the Jesus Commercial Passage into the Central Field. ”Barbarossa sighed, and continued: "However, many of the branches of the commercial waterways of the five major freeports have been closed by Xiyue or Fijimeng, and other low-level commercial waterways are roughly the same, and everyone's words are not very good. ”The commercial waterway in the mouth of Barbarossa is an ordinary waterway with a secondary level of traffic to the main waterway.If the main waterway is likened to a high highway, then the commercial waterway is equivalent to a winding road with poor capacity and a long distance.Like Highway 6, this is a mesh passage.The various levels of routes are crisscrossed like a river.Most of the shipping lanes are interconnected, and there are many edge shipping lanes that extend to the end of a barren galaxy with only one jump point.The only difference between the interstellar passage and the highway is that between the road network, there are rural towns and villages.And interstellar passages, often millions of light-years, dozens of jumps can not see a single immigrant planet.The fat man was dazzled by the star-to-star map, rubbed his eyebrows, pointed to a small blue dot away from the eight jumps, and asked, "Tell me about the situation of the Mars Freeport." ”"This year's Mars ruling coalition is the Northern Business Alliance."
Barbarossa said: "They have one year left in their bid term.At the beginning of the war, they also counted some wealth, and many businesses and refugees from the belligerent countries poured in, and they felt much more prosperous than before.Recently, however, the situation has been much more chaotic due to the closure of shipping lanes, the lack of access for goods, and the war. ”"Hmm......"
The fat man touched the freshly shaved iron blue chin, and was a little amused by Barbarossa's words.A pirate leader said that Freeport was in chaos like a place that had never been normal, but I really don't know what the chaos had become.The Freeport, due to its specific environment, has a very special social formation.The police there are more of a service organization than a police officer.They usually only help maintain order, deter civilians with no background, and occasionally help find cats and dogs, and catch thieves.Nothing else.This is true not only of the police, but of almost all political departments, including the military.No one cares about politics – the most powerful ones have the final say!
If a more powerful group hits the original group, it will be equivalent to a general election.The forces underground are the real forces.The so-called political axe on the surface is nothing more than the emperor's new clothes.Not even a fig leaf.It is only because of the need to manage civilians that it exists.It is not surprising if there are rumors that the chief executive of a certain freeport is the younger brother of a certain triad big brother.That can only show that this underworld big brother won the bid in the bidding for the ruling power.There are no political parties in the free port, there are only various interest alliances, such as chambers of commerce, transport groups, mercenary groups, triads and pirates.The ruling power, which is treated as a commodity, is tendered by these gangs.Every four years.The winning bidder must also invest in the defense and infrastructure of the Freeport after paying a large sum of money, and in return, he can receive a portion of the tax benefits of the Freeport to offset his investment, and most importantly, he will be very safe for the four years of his term.This is a recognized neutral position, and as long as you follow the rules in this position, no one will come to you!
Therefore, the governing power of the free port is also known as the right to save life.There are many tycoons who are facing a desperate situation and spend hundreds of billions of dollars just to obtain this right in order to survive in desperation.Of course, the personnel and management powers of the armed forces, as well as some key political axe functional departments, are not possessed by the political axe.As ironic as it may sound, it is perfectly normal for Freeport.These departments are controlled by underground forces, each of which has its own spokesperson.On the one hand, these forces cooperate, and on the other hand, these forces are also fighting with each other.In Freeport, betrayal and alliance are changing all the time, and no one can cover the sky with one hand.Everyone has to be careful to make sure that they don't wake up the next day and find themselves with nothing, including their last name.It's a strange place.If you have enough wisdom, you can live a good life here.Not only are there all sorts of opportunities for adventurous people to get rich, but there are also relaxed environments for ordinary civilians to live in - the underworld will not easily attack civilians, and they collect protection money with more ethics than the police.Of course, once you start, then it must be a dead hand.Many people or forces that were once smash hits have disappeared in this way.The Mars Freeport is one of the most important goals set by the fat man.Only by holding this planet in our hands can we truly unite the free world.And before setting out on the road to the Freeport of Mars, the fat man knew that the Redbeard Pirates in his hands were not enough.What I need now is more strength and more money.If you are not strong enough, in that place where the weak eat the strong, you can't make any waves."
Where do you think we should start?"
The fat man rubbed his reddened eyes, took his eyes off the interstellar map, lit a cigarette, and looked at Barbarossa."
I'm ......"
Barbarossa looked at the fat man and shook his head cautiously: "I don't know, there doesn't seem to be any target in the news that came back from the eyes sent out recently."
On the main channel, the fleet of the Suss Empire is still gathering towards the Salga border, and at this time, no one dares to take risks. ”The marginal waterway is attached to the commercial waterway, which in turn is attached to the main waterway.In the current situation where the main channel is in full swing with the Suss Empire's fleet passing all the time, it is true that no one dares to act rashly.The place of registration is not in the Western Covenant, and without the special pass of the Seuss Empire, even the merchant ships carrying the most ordinary cargo cannot enter the sight of the Seuss fleet, let alone the free merchant ships that carry strictly controlled goods such as energy, machinery and electronic equipment.There were also smuggling boats that ventured across the blockade, but most of these were owned by Fiji League.The destination of the shipment is the blockaded Filipino alliance countries such as Lelei and Gacharin, and such merchant ships are naturally not within the scope of the fat man's robbery.The fat man pouted, spat out a smoke ring, and then, hurriedly, spit out a straight smoke.Watching the straight smoke penetrate the smoke ring, he smiled twice with a sense of accomplishment and said, "If you have anything to say, don't spit out - the Redbeard Pirates have no enemies?"
”Barbarossa looked at the fat man, and her face changed.To be honest, he now has a sense of fear of fat people in his heart.Now he has been torn off the veil of power in the eyes of pirates by the fat man.The moment he revealed the pirate treasure, Barbarossa knew that the fat man had won.I'll never be the same intimidating pirate leader I used to be.The reason why I can still stand here and become a member of the three leaders of this new gang is only because of the fat man's words.This person is born with the ability to control people's hearts!
He beats up a person, but it is just to control the psychology of other people!
No one knows people's surnames better than he does.In times of peace, he was a brilliant psychologist, and now, he is a demon!
You never know if this man is crazy or not, but just look at the way the pirates look at him, and then look at the broken battleship moored in the dockyard and you know that he is a genius!
It is undoubtedly dangerous to follow such a person, but it must also be exciting!
After a long silence, Barbarossa finally nodded, "To be honest, I wanted to suggest starting with a few pirates around here, but I don't want you to think that I am killing people with a knife. ”"What's so bad about borrowing a knife to kill someone?"
The fat man patted Barbarossa on the shoulder in amazement, and sighed: "You're just too kind, too honest - we're fucking pirates, hurry up and throw away all your old set, what kind of justice are you talking about?"
”"Poof!"
Barbarossa's face turned red as Chekov coughed as he squirted out the tea he had just drunk in his mouth.In the past twenty years in the Golden Triangle Star Field, the red-bearded pirate who has killed people has been scolded for being kind and honest, and this is the first time."
Besides......"
The fat man waved his hand: "Peers are enemies, we must have enough understanding."
The enemy is cunning and ferocious, they bully the people, kill people and set fires, they don't stare at our redbeard pirates for a day or two, they want to kill us, we are forced to defend ourselves!
”Chekov thought it was a little funny, the fat man was quite skilled in arranging the crime, although he didn't even know who those pirates were, but this did not prevent him from opening his mouth and spewing blood."
Who are they?"
The fat man asked Barbarossa curiously."
Demon's Eye Pirate Regiment, Grand Commander Stillman."
Barbarossa pointed to several galaxies five jumps away on the interstellar map and said: "In the past ten years, we have been active in this star field, and our strength is on par with ours.It is considered a mortal enemy, and the enmity that was formed in the Golden Triangle Star Field before. ”"Is there a weaker one?"
The fat man frowned: "When you are a pirate, the most important thing is to learn to pick persimmons and pinch them softly." ”"Yes."
Barbarossa said honestly, "However, the [Demon's Eye] is closest to us.Although we don't know where each other's bases are, from the perspective of the activity area, we have a large part of the overlap with them.Several robberies have collided together, and we can't do anything to the other pirates without pulling out this nail. ”"Fight a tough battle when you open?"
The fat man was a little depressed, which didn't seem to be in line with his principle of bullying: "You talk about it first, and explain their situation more carefully!"
”The DE-454 system, which is only four hops away from the public galaxy DE-176, where the Redbeard Pirate Cluster is located, is a huge star-like galaxy.In the galaxy the Asian constellation, the DE-4541 star system, concentrates six jump points.This is also the location of the main base of the [Demon Eye] pirate group, and at this moment, the Grand Commander Stillman is making a chair wrapped in gold velvet, enjoying his dinner."
Recently......"
Stillman put a piece of cut beef in his mouth with a fork, chewing slowly, his neatly trimmed golden beard moving with his lips: "Those redbeards seem to be much quieter." ”The second commander, Peterson, reached out and took the whiskey on the table, poured it for Stillman, and said with a frown: "Some time ago, their main force also robbed a merchant group transporting ore in the Pyramid Constellation.After success, it suddenly disappeared, I don't know if something happened?
”"Did they sell their ore?"
Stillman thinly slices the steak on his plate."
I heard that it has been given to the old fellow Klaus, but yet, it has not been sold."
Peterson put the empty bottle aside, got up and took another bottle of strong whiskey from the wine cabinet, habitually ripped off the logo, and poured himself a drink, "That's a lot of money." ”"How much is ore worth?"
Stillman scoffed.He put down the knife and fork in his hand, grabbed a napkin and wiped his mouth, and sneered: "Wait for the line with Suss, this star field, and their red beard?!"
This time we paid the price of two armed merchant ships and four torpedo boats, and in a blink of an eye we could get a military-equipped cruiser.This is what makes money. ”"The most important thing is ......"
Stillman looked at Peterson smugly, "We have the support of the Western Covenant, in this star field, or is there something we can't do?"
”"That's, that's!"
Peterson rubbed his hands excitedly: "Big brother, when do you think the operation of those Binalts will end?"
Fuck, are they going to just block the Bu Channel?

When will our ship arrive?
”"People with the surname are anxious, they will never be able to appreciate the wonderful ...... of waiting" Stillman smiled slightly, and picked up the knife and fork again: "We were driven here from the Golden Triangle area by Redbeard, and we have been waiting for ten years, and we still care about how many days?"
When I get the boat, hum, I will let Hyreddin understand that this is not the Golden Delta Star Domain!
”Ulyanov, like a javelin, stood straight on the bridge.In front of this ambitious general of the Seuss Empire was the porthole of a huge battleship.Outside the window, the stars shine.The star in front of the left side of the ship shone brightly.Nine Typhoon-class battleships and two Admiral Jankovic-class space carriers, surrounded by dozens of Kerstantin-class cruisers and hundreds of destroyers, broke through the sky.The light of the stars gave this majestic mixed fleet a dazzling coat of color."
I love this moment......"
Ulyanov looked out the window with fascination: "The cold metal battleship, when it embarks on a journey in the universe, is always full of pleasant beauty."
I doubt that in front of this majestic fleet, there is anything that we cannot conquer!
”"Fifty years in the East."
Gershkov, deputy commander of the Second Mixed Fleet of the Southeastern Front of the Suss Empire, who was half-bald and short, stood quietly half a step behind Ulyanov, and his voice was like a dream: "The ambition of the empire has long been boiling.The victory of Resque finally opened the way for us to go south.Now, all eyes are on us. ”Ulyanov's gaze, in his partner's voice, became unusually sharp.His gaze seemed to have pierced through the star curtain of the universe and reached ten jumps away, the country that had been panicked to the extreme."
Order the fleet, all forward!"
Ulyanov turned around suddenly, looked sharply at the rows of officers standing behind him in the main control room, and said loudly: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime fighter, the resources of the empire have been exhausted."
The royal family has done everything in its power to build our imperial force.Now, it's time for us to repay the empire with our blood and cannons!
Telegraphed to the 1st Mixed Fleet that the 2nd Fleet would arrive at the assembly point on time after 7 days!
”"Empire!"
Gershkov raised his head solemnly and roared."
Forward!"
The officers who stood solemnly, as if they had been ignited with gunpowder, suddenly burst out into a hoarse and frantic roar.Outside the window, the stars faded and the light faded.The steel battleship is cold, moving forward silently.
