Chapter 538: Rules of the Game
Pompey took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "I hope you can be so spicy when you fight." After speaking, he turned around and walked to the bridge gate, and when he was about to go out, he suddenly stopped, looked back at her and said: "He is not a lost dog, at least there are nearly 500 pirate warships and the 'Morning Star', the destruction of the industrial park will neither hurt his muscles nor move his bones, he has 800 billion in hand, and he is worried that he can't make a comeback?" You're laughing too soon...... Be careful that crying will be ugly later. β
"Haven't you always looked down on him?"
"I look down on you even more! A woman who relies on the lower upper position,. β
Mie Nakamura didn't seem to mind at all, and said calmly, "Man...... It's always like this, obviously my heart is restless, and I look like a gentleman on the surface, isn't it tiring? β
Pompey didn't speak, but stepped out the door, his face looking gloomy like a dark cloud in the rainy season.
Mie Nakamura watched him leave, turned to look at the featureless face on the screen of Bridge 2, she gently twisted the black hair around her fingertips, and her eyes suddenly turned cold, which made her whole person look incongruous.
Pompey's words are a bit exaggerated, but it is undeniable that she did sleep with many men, such as O'Neill and Terry? Ferdinand, or David? Conan.
She wanted to know what Captain Tang would do next, to make compromises, and piece together the industrial park that had been reduced to ruins little by little? Building = building is very boring, and it will be boring as a spectator, but there must be someone who is happy to see him do this, and will watch and laugh all the way.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Somewhere in deep space in the uninhabited area of Ayaros-Coplin-Slandal.
In a makeshift space station made up of a dozen converted heavy cargo ships, pirate leaders gather at a table with wine in front of them, beautiful women in their arms, and a roaring bonfire in the center, on which a lamb is driven by spices and condiments. In the creazzing sound, bits and pieces of bio-fat fall into the charcoal fire below, bringing an appetizing, rich aroma of meat to the whole restaurant.
This is Hannibal? Like his ancestors who were born as nomads, the Hannibal Pirates have been living a nomadic life in the deep space of the universe, moving every once in a while. So he wasn't worried about the trouble it would cause for exposing his nest to the leaders of other pirate groups, let alone ...... They are now allies, and they all have a common enemy - the increasingly powerful "Morning Star Casting".
Hannibal liked to roast whole sheep, and was more than happy to use them to entertain guests of similar status, which was a luxury for the pirates' hard life, but people always have to learn to comfort themselves, right?
He picked up a knife and cut off a large piece of meat from the browned roast lamb, which he intended to put on his table. Suddenly thinking that today was not the Hannibal Pirates' own holiday, and there were guests who needed to be greeted, he turned to look at Albert's seat, and suddenly found it empty, and then glanced around, and found the target in front of the viewing window on the side of the restaurant, holding a glass of tequila, looking out the window with his back to the noisy crowd.
The night sky outside was deep and quiet, like Albert's face at this time.
Hannibal didn't know what the night sky was good to look at. Comparable to a woman? Is it comparable to a bite of lamb that is charred on the outside and tender on the inside?
He glanced down at the mutton at the edge of the knife and turned to put it on the boyle? On a plate in front of Ben.
Hannibal thought it better not to bother Albert. Compared to a pirate, that man is more like a politician with a heart and a gully, don't the hypocritical guys on TV always like to do this to show their own difference? Since he likes to look at the night sky, let him keep watching it quietly.
Boyle tore off a piece of meat with his teeth, chewed it vigorously, and then looked like he was enjoying it. Not caring for the grease trickling down his gray beard under his chin, leaving a stain on his loose robe.
He was the one who laughed the loudest in the restaurant, because he finally played "Dillard", the young man surnamed Tang who wanted to be windy and rainy, and avenged the original revenge.
In fact, he still has some regrets. If the Pirate Coalition didn't have to perform that scene and directly sent troops to "Dillard", would the more than 2,000 warships be no match for Stephen? 500 warships of Su and Chen Jian? Albert feared that the living warship would wreak havoc on the pirate fleet, and thought that it would be best to kill people with a knife and sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
But...... It turns out that "Dillard" does not have a living warship at all, at least now it is in a military vacuum, just like Tang Fang said on SNS TV, they still have many flaws, such as a very short lifespan, such as high cost, so the First Fleet of the Night Legion almost effortlessly razed the "Christiel" industrial park to the ground.
He glanced up at Albert's back, and there was a hint of suspicion on his wrinkled face, and he suddenly thought of a possibility, if ...... This is not a simple act of revenge, if Albert has other purposes, or if the people behind him have other purposes...... For example, the purpose of politics?
He picked out a piece of bone from his mouth and threw it into the trash can next to him, looking at Hannibal who was cutting meat in front of the fire, and at Rommel who was laughing with the beautiful woman in his arms, and Nicholson of the Black Pearl Pirates not far away? Pan's face became a little gloomy.
Those old things in the council are really good at tricks and tricks. The Ayaros-Coplin-Slandar No Man's Land Pirates are their pawns, and the Mubarak Star System's Doom Legion is also their pawn, and this time even Tang Fang has become one of their pawns.
For the Pirates, this operation successfully curbed the rapid expansion of the "Morning Star Forge" and dealt a heavy blow to the Tang side.
For the Sulu Empire, it not only avenged the robbery of the "Ipsi Dragon Shuttle", but also captured several scientific researchers.
For the Star Alliance government, while knocking on the Tang side and achieving the political goal, it completely dissociates itself from its own involvement.
What a one-stone strategy!
Of course, there were some deviations in the matter, and the scene of the battle between the living warship and the First Fleet of the Night Legion did not appear, which may be a pity for those old foxes.
Boyle picked up a tissue to wipe the grease off his beard, and did so carefully and carefully.
Smart as Albert, as smart as Tang Fang, not the same as living like a dog, being toyed with by those old foxes in the council.
Hannibal thought that Albert was looking at the night sky in contemplation, and only he knew. It was not contemplation, but mourning for one's fate.
In many cases, hundreds of millions of people, and even the entire society, live in lies and dreams carefully woven by a small group of people.
Just like poor Captain Tang, what is the difference between him and the crickets in the bamboo basket?
Boyle thinks he's thinking a little too much. At least he was happy now, because he had stepped on the cricket, even though he hadn't trampled it to death.
Nicholson slid the glass into his mouth, shook his feet, and said, "I'd love to know the boy's expression when he first saw the tragic image of 'Christel'. β
Hannibal was spicy by the vodka, quickly stuffed a piece of mutton into his mouth, and then dried the grease on his hands: "Do you think he will lie on the ground sadly and cry for his mother?" β
Rommel rubbed his hand on the bare breasts of the beautiful woman on his left leg a few times, causing a seductive cry of pain, and said with a smile: "I guess he will explode Jian Chen and Stephen?" Su Na two silly x chrysanthemums, sprinkle some mustard to make a plate of cold dishes. β
Nichomson said, "Do you dare to eat? β
Rommel pinched his nose and said, "Don't dare." I'm ashamed. After speaking, he played with the Asian woman's breast on her right leg, pointed it, looked at the flower buds trembling up and down, and asked in a low voice, "Do you dare?" β
"Giggle." The woman laughed and shook her breasts: "You are a bad person. β
Rommel said: "Of course I am a bad person, not only am I a bad person, but everyone in the room is a bad person. After speaking, he hugged the two women on his legs and laughed: "Including you." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Meanwhile, inside a private space station in the high-altitude orbit of Planet Heisenberg, the capital of the Covenant hinterland Duma star system.
It's still that room, it's still the same two people. Basking in the silver glow of the Duma brothers, watch the various types of ships shuttling back and forth like schools of fish outside.
"If you do that, you won't be afraid to push him up. Simply leaving the Covenant? β
Hamlet stands in front of the picture window in a high-end suit and holding a goblet filled with freshly squeezed strawberry juice instead of wine.
Terry? Ferdinand was still dressed as a wise man, looking a little proud, and said slowly, "Where can he go?" The Monya Empire and the Sulu Empire are ironclad and cannot be returned. Phoenix Empire? United Kingdom of Turanks? Unless he wanted to be a bird in a cage, the Charles Federation might be a little better, and the Cheng dΓΉ was extremely limited, and the Charles government would not allow him to set up a private army. In this context, is he really willing to give up the efforts he has made in the Star Alliance to go to the Charles Federation? I think...... He still likes the Star Alliance. β
Hamlet takes a sip of strawberry juice and says, "It's fresh, would you like some?" β
"No thanks." Terry? Ferdinand continued: "He knows what we want, and he knows the rules of the game, but unfortunately he doesn't accept both, so everyone goes against each other. The so-called 'society' is actually an aggregate of countless rules, and if you can't go with the flow, you will naturally be rejected by society, this reason...... A smart man like him wouldn't be ignorant. β
"It's a pity, you still miscalculated, until the First Fleet of the Night Legion razed the 'Kristel' industrial park to the ground, the living warship did not appear, and they captured several researchers, in case the Sulu Empire made some name for it, and it was used on the head of the Star Covenant Navy, then it would be a lot of fun."
"Hmph, do you think Tang Fang is a stupid person? He wouldn't know that there were spies from 'Daystar Pharmaceutical' hidden inside the industrial park? Will you be reckless and reckless to hand over the project of the biological warship to the R&D team of the original 'Daystar Pharmaceutical'? I guess...... Even the samples of drugs used to treat radiation sickness have probably been manipulated by him, and it is difficult for ordinary people to derive anything valuable from them. β
Hamlet is puzzled: "Then why did you go to great lengths to direct such a bitter love scene?" β
Terry? Ferdinand coughed lightly, leaned against the silver-white railing in front of the viewing window and looked into the distance, and asked casually, "Let's talk about your guess first." β
"First, unite the pirate forces in the no-man's land of Ayaros-Koplin-Slandal, because once the Star Alliance starts a war with Sulu and Monya, their existence will become dispensable, just like the Republican Party and the Liberal Party that have temporarily shelved the dispute, before the war begins, the domestic forces must unite to avoid a situation of delay."
"Second, concoct a stronghold threat wheel to exacerbate the national contradictions between the Star Alliance and the Sulu Empire. Let anger and hostility penetrate into the hearts of the people, incite social feelings, and achieve the goal of speeding up preparations for war and making the transition to wartime politics. β
"Third, borrowing Harrington? Harris's Hand destroys 'Christel' to knock the Don ...... That's the only thing I don't understand, what are you going to do next? β
"The dove occupies the magpie's nest!" Terry? Ferdinand said, "As the saying goes, it's easier to invite God than to send God." The 44th Fleet is like a steel nail, and if you want to figure out the formal channels for the Navy to withdraw from 'Dillard', it must be 'Daystar Pharmaceutical', after all, it was Bilbohm who signed the lease agreement in the first place, not him. Would Bilbohm do it willingly? Of course not, unless...... He chose to compromise. β
"So, there were only two paths before him, either to rebuild the 'Christel' industrial complex under the nose of the 44th Fleet, and to allow others to sleep peacefully on the side of the couch, or to make concessions. Honestly cooperate with Daystar Pharmaceutical. Of course, he could choose to leave Dillard and find his footing again, which, as I said above, would mean a loss of work for him. β
The strawberry juice in the cup has bottomed out, leaving only a line of crimson at the foot of the cup, so charming in a sea of silver light.
"You old foxes, you are changing the law and taking advantage of the loopholes in the law. Really. Politicians are not only biao themselves, but also good at forcing good people to become prostitutes. β
"Anyone. If you want to gain a foothold in this world, you must follow certain rules, and unless you are strong enough to make new rules, you can only choose to follow them or be obliterated. Tang Fang and his 'Morning Star Forge' obviously didn't have that ability. But it is moving against the current, so it will face today's difficult situation. He's a little clever lucky guy at best, and it seems to me that you expect too much from him. β
Hamlet smiles noncommittally: "Really? I still have a lot of faith in him, like you said so much. I don't think he'll be left to your mercy either. β
A sneer squeezed out of Councillor Terry's old face, which made him look a little angry, and he coughed lightly again, and said, "Then we'll see, I'm just as curious about what he's going to do next, and I hope your wish won't be disappointed, otherwise...... Wouldn't I have lost a lot of fun? β
With that, he lowered his voice and added in a volume that only he could hear, "In the time I have left." β
Hamlet finally discovered the charming color of the cup, raised the goblet and put it in front of the viewing window, and said: "There is pressure to be motivated, and there is pressure to grow." β
"If I can't see the ending......"
He drank the strawberry juice from the cup very childishly and said, "I said that I would burn you the story of the future." β
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The news of Tang's return to "Dillard" spread far and wide, and major media and newspapers reported it in the form of front-page headlines, analyzed and speculated on how he would respond, and even current affairs commentators published articles on this matter to explain their views.
Most people think that in the current situation, he can only choose to endure the humiliation, because the perpetrator of this attack belongs to the stronghold forces planted by the Sulu Empire in the border area of the Star Alliance, and there are more than 2,200 warships belonging to the first and second fleets of the Night Legion combined, plus the various space-based defense equipment deployed by the Mubarak star system, and the defense vehicles in the system, the 4 conventional fleets of 1,000 ships may not be able to gnaw this hard bone.
Some young people were dissatisfied with the late departure of the government navy, believing that the navy was responsible for the attack on "Dillard."
Some people in the legal circles believe that this has little to do with the Star Alliance Navy, because when the lease agreement was signed, the two sides had already agreed that "Daystar Pharmaceutical" has the power to set up a regular fleet-sized security fleet and deploy a space-based defense network within the "Dilar" star system, and the navy will only respond to the request for help and send troops to "Dillard" when the company's own defense system cannot cope with external threats.
At that time, the first fleet of the Night Legion was full of no more than 700 warships, if Byron's pirates were there, with space-based defense facilities, it would be enough to block the incoming enemy, but unfortunately Jian Chen and Stephen? Su deserted his post without permission, so that the enemy could seize the opportunity to destroy the industrial park of "Cristel", so it was not about the Star Alliance Navy at all. Now the Navy's 44th Fleet obeys David? Admiral Conan's order to abandon the original plan and deliberately set up the garrison in "Dillard" has been done very benevolently.
In fact, there is another accomplice in the "attack" - the Ayaros-Koplin-Slandar Pirates in the No Man's Land, but unfortunately the "Morning Star Forge" has limited troops and cannot carpet explore the vast cosmic deep space in the no man's land.
Combining all kinds of information released by the official and "Morning Star Casting", some people assert that the "attack" was caused by Albert, Whitebeard and others who did not hesitate to commit treason to the enemy and colluded with Harrington for personal grudges? Harris, a dastardly act of using the Legion of Doom to avenge himself.
Soon, a storm of public opinion broke out on the Internet to denounce Whitebeard, Cobra, Black Pearl and other pirates.
Some people accuse the government of raising tigers, some people reprimand the navy for its ineffective crackdown on bandits, and of course, there are many people who gloat, thinking that those who are aggrieved by the "Morning Star Casting" eat radishes and worry lightly. Why is it that I am being bullied to such an extent now, and I don't even dare to let out a fart even when I serve it to my hometown? What about the spirit of rebellion that was expressed on SNS TV? was humiliated by the Legion of Doom and the Pirates, how did she become a submissive little daughter-in-law? Those bold words at the beginning...... It can't be bragging, right? (To be continued......) R1292
