Chapter 317: Trojan Horse Scheme?
Looking at the bloody Lumina head at the back of the image, Yu Lian was a little surprised, but not so surprised.
Again, the pirates are a group of lawless groups that kill people and forget their interests, and cannibalism is basically their daily routine.
Those mighty pirates, even the vast fleets of the Empire and the Alliance, have nothing to do with them. They crisscrossed the gap between the two camps and the nations, and they were at large, gathering in the mountains and forests, just like a loach that had cultivated without leaving a hand. However, such a chic underworld life often ends in the betrayal of his subordinates.
Yu Lian has seen this situation countless times in the future.
However, it is clear that this time the backstab should be of a sudden nature. Those pirates obviously did not have a unified position, some were at a loss, some were fleeing, and some were loyal to kill the flagship to rescue, and suddenly it was a mess.
Since this is such a scene, the community fleet is happy to eat melons for the time being, and wait for the pirates to make a decision.
Sadly, the famous Lumina pirate Moda was more unavailable than he thought, and there were so few people willing to fight for him, that he soon died at the hands of the "rebels".
After that, it should be a non-technical finishing and pursuit battle.
It stands to reason that the pirate ships are still more than twice as large as their own, and if they make up their minds to escape from the beginning, they really can't be wiped out, so they can only make a hasty symbolic pursuit, and let the crew casually brush up a little experience.
However, the blow to the pirates from the infighting just now was too great, and they were still in continuous chaos for a while, even if they escaped, they didn't grasp the direction well, and even directly hit the headless flies in the fire net of the assault ship.
In addition, Commodore Maklov released all the fighters early, and a group of three planes intercepted the enemy ships point-to-point, as if a flock of goshawks were intercepting rabbits fleeing in the pasture.
Yu Lian estimated that no more than one-third of the pirates who actually escaped successfully were probably not more than one-third. And these lucky ones are all injured in the hull, and they don't know if they can withstand the pressure of jumping.
Seeing that there was no longer a living enemy ship left in the reconnaissance area, the senior sister who had greatly brushed the pirate head led the whole army and approached the flagship of the Moda fleet, which was said to have surrendered.
Of course, those who officially surrendered to the Community fleet were not only already franger...... In addition to the flagship of the White Flag, there were three or four small and medium-sized pirate ships.
The person who shouted "don't fire" was a middle-aged human man named Beel, who claimed to be the second leader of this fleet.
"Isn't the second leader of the Moda Group a Wolfgang man named Delken?"
"Not really! That doghead is the overseer sent by the Empire! Wang Wang screamed twice, and Moda didn't even know where to pout his ass! I'm the founder of the Legion! Beer felt that he seemed to be too excited, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Later, didn't you hear that the king was coming?" The Empire was no match, and the dog head ran straight back to Kerr. This, this gives the villain a chance to set things right! ”
This guy looks like a good guy who is good at climbing along the pole, and it is obviously the daily operation of pirates, but he described it as a righteous act that he was touched by the heroism of the king after seeing the arrival of the "Community King". From this point of view, Mr. Beel should be a great salesman, if not a pirate, if not a promising profession.
It's a pity that the senior sister who has no blood and no tears obviously doesn't eat this set, and directly said that we can win a complete victory without your backstabbing, so why accept your surrender? Anyway, pirates like you, once betrayed, there will be a second time, so it is better to kill you here on the spot.
Beer suddenly began to plead, what is the old mother who is waiting to be fed, there are standard lines such as whether there is a baby who can take care of himself, and the reason why he became a pirate is all forced by life, in fact, he is really a good person, and other lines that directly insult everyone's IQ are not less.
"Speaking of which, I was also born on Earth, so maybe I am related to someone in your army."
Yu Lian looked at the other party's overly pompous fiery red hair, and believed that the other party was really an earthling.
However, again, pirates have no human rights and cannot enjoy any humanitarian treatment. Even if they are earthlings, if they don't prove their worth, they will be like those pirates who work hard to grow vegetables, and they will turn into dust between the nebulae on the far shore.
So, Beer shouted, "I, I...... By the way, I am good brothers with the port director of Kerna! I can help you. ”
Eleanor raised her eyebrows, thinking that this guy had finally said something human, and then accepted the other party's surrender.
So, under the watchful eye of all the guns of the Thirteenth Fleet, the remaining ships of the pirates closed their shields, engines, and all gun doors, and Beer himself boarded the Corsica with two cronies with trepidation.
Under the strong onlookers of a group of community officers who were neatly dressed in military uniforms and looked capable and majestic again, Kerna quickly knelt down, but he was still calm, kneeling and kneeling, and quickly squeezed out a flattering smile on his face at a speed visible to the naked eye: "I, I am really a good brother with the port director of Kerna." That's an imperial man. Since I'm also half Empire, it's still very talkative. ”
Indeed, this guy's red hair is indeed not something that earthlings can grow.
"Also, although I grew up with my mother in the Empire, my father is really from Earth! The earth is also my spiritual homeland......"
"And the empire is your cultural adoptive mother, isn't it?" Yu Lian said with a smile.
Beel felt that the captain's words were really nice, and just nodded his head meaningfully, and then hurriedly shook his head: "No, there is no adoptive mother, I have only one motherland in my heart!" The Empire is only a place where it has lived occasionally. ”
Yu Lian looked at the other party's bells and whistles in imperial court clothes, and felt that this "place where he occasionally lived" really had a great impact on him.
“…… In short, Xiaguan and the port director of Kerna are friends, and they also know many high-ranking people over there. If your army really has any ideas, I'm willing to go over there, convince them to surrender, and offer you a large ransom. He said expectantly.
"Ransom?" Eleanor raised an eyebrow: "Do you think I am a pirate?" ”
In this chaotic universe, the boundaries between pirates and navies, do you make it clear? Such embarrassment flashed across Beel's face, and he added, "That's ...... I, this ...... Eh...... But you're not going to take that city, are you? Eh, the city of Kerna is still under construction, but many facilities have already been built, and the first thing to be completed is the defense equipment. The shield and turret have been completed a long time ago, and it is said that the fortress cannon is still being laid. Moreover, there are at least two or three thousand garrison soldiers on it, and there are nearly 10,000 people of various staff, who can also fight when necessary. ”
He looked at Eleanor and the others with suspicion, and although they were laughing, there seemed to be a little more mockery in their eyes: "...... This, Madam Commander, I don't think there's really any need to take any risks, wouldn't it be nice to take a ransom? As long as everyone puts on a siege and blockade posture, and I personally lobby for it, they will definitely compromise. After all, Kerna is also a commercial port and cannot withstand the blockade. ”
Beel thought for a moment, then added, "Yes, it's just a place for us pirates to trade, that's all. ”
Yu Lian understood what this guy meant, and he believed that Senpai, Hachiman, and Fei Fei also understood.
This Kerna is just a commercial port in an extralegal place, and this kind of "underground" stronghold is everywhere in the galaxy, and it is not new at all, and it must and must have nothing to do with the Empire.
In that case, there is no reason for the Community fleet to do it, wouldn't it be better to take a small sum of money that is enough to make all the officers and men happy?
"Oh, it's nothing to do with the Empire!" Eleanor nodded.
"Yes, it really doesn't matter, it's just that there happen to be some Imperial staff." The red-haired pirate said.
"Then, as a glorious community navy, isn't it even more reasonable for a member of the Galactic Civilization Council to wipe this place of filth and dirt from the galaxy?" Eleanor suddenly burst into battle: "Mr. Beer, since you want to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, then take action!" When conquering the city of Kerna, I allow you to be the forerunner of the king's division! ”
Beel almost burst into tears, and couldn't help but look at Yu Lian with a pleading gaze.
He is really a very discerning person, and he can actually see that Yu Lian, the captain of this district, is also a capable master.
"You just said that you have a good relationship with the people above the fortress?" Yu Lian asked.
The other party nodded, his face full of suspicion
"You go up a lot, too? Familiar with that, right? ”
The other party continued to nod, but he seemed to realize something in his suspicion, and gradually became a little more panicked.
Yu Lian looked at Eleanor and said with a smile, "...... Sir, I have a bold plan now. ”
Without waiting for Eleanor to ask, Beel asked in a panicked tone, "...... Sir, you, you don't want to send a group of capable death squads to hide in my ship and sneak into the city of Kerna, do you? ”
"What's not to do? The Trojan Horse is the crystallization of the military wisdom of our earth's ancestors! Yu Lian said in a natural tone: "As far as I know, there is a famous general who is always invincible and uses soldiers like a magician, and he used this method to capture the space fortress. That fortress is known as a super space city that is known as an impregnable and invincible city, and in terms of scale, it is no less than the Twelve Palaces of the Empire, but it is so high that I don't know where it goes. ”
