Chapter 1210: The Ransom That Can't Be Talked About
Vice Admiral Crane hurriedly returned to the Starfleet headquarters with the news, and Admiral Pheasant Kuzan did not leave, although he was a guest, he was still a hostage, but it was not listed as a condition for negotiations, not as a precondition for negotiations.
And the news of the defeat of 500,000 warships led by Admiral Kuzan shocked the senior management of Starfleet Headquarters, which was something that never expected.
It's just that for the Battle of the Twin Stars that General Kuzan said, there are not many mistakes.
150,000 warships fought with 1 space city and 50,000 warships against the enemy, and the two sides fought in a draw, which was acceptable.
Whether it's true or not, though, remains to be investigated.
But now the question is how to talk about it next, how to redeem people.
The Warring States Marshal asked, "I have one more question, who is in the hands of the Twin Star Fields now? Sand crocodile or bat?"
Lieutenant General Crane said: "I also asked General Kuzan, and he said that he had fought with a strong man with a scorching sandstorm sword intent, and it should be a sand crocodile. ”
Akainu Sakarsky asked, "Who won?"
Lieutenant General Crane smiled: "Naturally, it is General Kuzan." ”
Marshal Kong's eyebrows, "When did the sand crocodile have sword intent?"
Yellow Ape Polusalino smiled: "He hasn't done anything serious with anyone for a long time, it's not surprising that he can practice sword intent, the imaginary enemy is Kuzan, my light and Sakasky's heat, for his sand, the effect is not ideal." ”
Admiral Zefa said coldly: "It can be fully explained that this guy has been thinking about dealing with Starfleet. ”
Lieutenant General Crane Zhengse said: "I've been thinking about a question, they all say that this thing is a battle between a sand crocodile and a bat, so now that the sand crocodile is alive, what about the bat." ”
"That must be dead. Akainu Sakasky said contemptuously, "Not even a sand crocodile can win, nothing more than that." ”
General Zefa pondered and said in a deep voice: "No, no, I think there is another possibility, that is, the bat and the sand crocodile have formed an alliance. ”
The conference room suddenly fell silent, and everyone felt surprised and felt very reasonable.
Lieutenant General Crane said: "I also thought the same way, and I also learned about it from General Kuzan, but he couldn't say it, but I think it would be best for us to treat the sand crocodile as an ally of the bat in the next negotiations." ”
Marshal Air nodded, "This is very important, try not to give the Sand Crocodile battleship in this negotiation." ”
Vice Admiral Crane said with a smile: "I'm going to talk about maintenance materials, Sand Crocodile now has a large number of damaged warships, and there must be a lack of maintenance materials." ”
Yellow Ape Polusalino smiled: "This is good, it won't help increase the number of troops." ”
Akainu Sakasky sneered, "Isn't it enough to help the rise? 500,000 warships are repaired, how can there be more than 100,000 warships." ”
"The Sand Crocodile must have lost a lot of warships as well. ”
"Who knows, Kuzan doesn't know. ”
"Okay, that's all for today, let's disperse first. ”
Marshal Kong saw that the two generals were bickering, and simply announced their disbandment.
......
Twin Star Fields, Space City Plaza.
Nicole Robin gathers Sand Crocodile's subordinates and meets Sand Crocodile Sand Klockdahl via video.
The sand crocodile, created by the intelligent Miss Joan of Arc, appears on the big screen and announces three things to his subordinates.
"One, we have formed an alliance with the Bat Star Pirates Alliance to correspond to Starfleet, but this matter needs to be kept secret. ”
Everyone has no opinion, and being released from prison is the best ending.
Someone whispered to ask why, and someone pretended to be clever enough to give a pretty perfect answer.
It must be that the sand crocodile does not have the upper hand in the battle with the bat, but the bat can't kill the sand crocodile either, after all, he has the ability to sand melt.
It just so happened that Starfleet came, and with a common enemy, it was natural to form an alliance.
"Second, Starfleet sent 500,000 warships to Gemini to suppress ......"
Many people were scared silly, and some were paralyzed by fear, and they didn't think they could overcome it.
"I teamed up with the bats and just defeated them. ”
Everyone suddenly boiled, not only for the rest of their lives, but also for glory, as an interstellar pirate, it is worth boasting of being able to defeat the army of Starfleet.
"However, our feud with Starfleet has deepened, so we will have to be more careful in the future. ”
"Yes. ”
Everyone answered in unison, and now they don't think that forming an alliance is a bad thing at all, and everyone knows very well in their hearts that the sand crocodile can't win, it must be a bat.
"Okay, I have something to do next, all the affairs of the Baroque Working Society and the Gemini Domain are temporarily handled by Nicole Robin, her words are my words. ”
"Yes. ”
"That's it, let's all disperse. ”
......
As Lieutenant General Tsuru returns to the Twin Stars with a list of repair supplies and meets with Nicole Robin to discuss the ransom, the Twin Stars Gate is also open with restrictions.
Two versions of the news circulated, one was the one concocted by Yamazaki to conceal the part about the death of the sand crocodile.
Starfleet took advantage of the battle between the sand crocodiles and the bats, and dispatched 500,000 warships with the intention of completely suppressing the twin planets.
But the fleet was defeated, and Commodore Smoker and Commodore Dasty were taken prisoner, along with tens of thousands of officers and men.
The first is the Starfleet version, which is about seeing that the sand crocodile is invincible to the bat, and the army led by Admiral Kuzan to help the sand crocodile eradicate the power of the bat in Gemini, and now Vice Admiral Crane is bringing countless repair materials to help the sand crocodile rebuild the fleet.
The results were expected and unexpected.
Unsurprisingly, there are roughly five reactions, one is to believe in the sand crocodile, and the other is to believe in Starfleet.
The third is to believe in the sand crocodile but not all of it, thinking that it is exaggerated.
Fourth, he didn't fully believe in Starfleet, thinking that he did it, but then he took the initiative to retreat, and then the sand crocodile captured the garrison fleet and demanded a ransom to make up for the loss.
Fifth, they are ambiguous, they all believe but they don't believe it, and they guess wildly.
Unexpectedly, the results were counted over time.
Less than 1 percent chose the first item and less than 5 percent chose the third option.
More than 15 per cent chose the second option and 67 per cent chose the fourth option.
Suffice it to say that in most people's minds, Starfleet has a positive image despite all its flaws, and the greedy universe of sand crocodiles is famous.
......
At the same time, the Revolutionary Army also got news of Nicole Robin and was relieved to know that she was okay.
Monchi S. D. Dragon left the stronghold and continued to wander the planets, looking for inspiration and thinking about how to deal with Starfleet.
On the other hand, the negotiations reached an impasse because Lieutenant General Tsuru insisted on only giving supplies for repairs, and at most 100,000 copies, which was far lower than Yamazaki's expectations.
100,000 repair supplies, equivalent to 100,000 warships.
Obviously, Starfleet is thinking that after the war, the sand crocodile is also seriously damaged and urgently needs to repair supplies.
If the maintenance materials are stuck, the strength of the sand crocodile is stuck.
Yamazaki believes that if it is only for maintenance materials, then 500,000 repair materials will be provided.
......
Two weeks after the war, Nicole Robin asked Lieutenant General Tsuru to leave.
"Since Starfleet has no sincerity, then there will be no Starfleet foothold in the twin star fields, and you are a diplomat, you can go. ”
"What do you mean? What if I don't go?"
"You're going to die. ”
"You mean, Mr. Sand Crocodile is planning to turn against Starfleet?"
"Now in this situation, what else is between us?"
"100,000 maintenance materials, he doesn't want it, and he doesn't want interstellar trade?"
"No, no. ”
