Chapter 376: The Pirates' Feast (1)

It is necessary to make an example of the monkeys, on the one hand, to put out the minds of those who are ready to move, and on the other hand, to pave the way for Walton.

When a few people boarded the passenger shuttle, and the flight attendant brought a document for Tang Fang to sign, he couldn't help but be stunned, how many things did Tang Yun buy yesterday, and the shipping fee alone was thousands of star coins.

After finishing the matter, I asked Tang Lin, and this Nizi actually spent all the 10W star coins in one day.

Tang Fang originally planned to go to Xingshi to ask for guilt and teach this big-spending little girl a good lesson, but he didn't want to turn his head and take a look, Zhou Ai was talking to Tang Yun Zhenghuan. She is still dressed yesterday, with beautiful black silk legs, Qi, forcing a small short skirt, looking from the front, a touch of color can be faintly seen.

He felt that it was not appropriate to be in the past now, and it was a very strict thing to educate Tang Yun to be diligent and thrifty, and this environment was not suitable. Also, how could Zhou Ai, a girl, board the plane in such revealing clothes, didn't she notice the hot eyes of the old men around her?

"Alas, who are the people around me, and Claire is the most worry-free." Tang Fang sighed, turned his head to look at Claire, who had been flickering since they met in the morning, and did not dare to look at him squarely, and muttered in a low voice: "Grant, you ......"

……

In about ten minutes, the passenger shuttle berthed into the ship's dock, transferred to the entry-exit quarantine and inspection area, and after paying the berthing fee, several people boarded the Morning Star through the connecting channel.

sent Tang Yun back to the room, and instructed Churchill to settle the bits and pieces that Xiao Nizi bought, and when Zhou Ai changed into a set of military uniforms, Tang Fang and the second daughter came to the bridge.

He did not give the order to set sail immediately, but held a combat meeting with Nehmeyah, Yufe, and the crew, informing them of the possible attack on the Morningstar, and informing the crew to be mentally prepared. About half an hour later, the order was given to leave.

Grant sent a departure request to the dock command center, and the Morning Star slowly sailed out and flew along a specific channel, slowly leaving the jurisdiction of "Lokia".

At the same time, Tang Fang entered the core cabin of the general force field generator. Shifts the shield from a low-energy plasma mode to a zero-element-powered Aurora mode.

This kind of roadblock robbery can be said to be a major feature of the Tianchao Star Region. If it is a sovereign country like Monya and Charles, each star system has government troops, and piracy lacks a hotbed for development, and it is difficult to form a scale, and only forces like Garcia's resistance can survive under the nose of the government.

However, in the Tianchao Star Region, due to political, social, geographical, war environment, and other reasons. Whether it is the Star Alliance, the Phoenix Empire, or the Silver Eagle Regiment, in addition to the core economic and military regions, the central government has a very weak control over some remote, disputed, and warring regions, as well as the star system controlled by big conglomerates and stronghold forces.

Similarly, the light-years void between star systems is a paradise for the pirates, overstretched by the Covenant's forces. 80% is invested in the confrontation with the Phoenix Empire and the Silver Eagle Regiment in the "Sokanada Line", and the remaining 20% is generally used as a guard in the core economic and military districts. Moreover, it is necessary to deal with some small actions of the stronghold forces, and it is simply impossible to effectively combat such robbery.

What's more, some of the Star Alliance's high-level leaders turned a blind eye to this and acquiesced in the existence of the pirate forces.

The Tianchao Star Region is chaotic, but because it is backed by the treasure house of the "Lost Land". It gradually developed into the trading center of the Hillembir region, where a large number of foreign merchant groups gathered.

Most of the official military power of the Star Alliance is used in the "Socanada Line", and the annual military expenditure is almost equal to the fiscal revenue, and some sanctimonious Star Alliance high-level leaders have beaten the doctrine on the heads of the business groups of various sovereign countries. Of course, the Star Alliance military naturally won't do it themselves. lest there be any truth left behind, and the sovereign state will be caught in the right moment.

Pirates are different, these blood-licking guys can't blame the Star Alliance for their criminal acts of robbing past merchant groups, and what can those sovereign countries do if they accuse the Star Alliance of inaction? Who doesn't know that the tripartite forces of the Star Alliance, the Phoenix Empire, and the Silver Eagle Regiment have stationed most of their troops on the "Socanada" defense line, and it is strange that those tricky and slippery pirate forces are free.

On the other hand, there are more than a dozen sovereign states in the Hillembir region, and there are contradictions with each other, and no one dares to send troops to Tianchao lightly, so as not to cause a chain reaction. Moreover, the sovereign countries don't want to force the Star Alliance to be in a hurry, in case they don't do it and surrender to the Phoenix Empire, then they will suffer. Therefore, it is best for the Tianchao Star Region to maintain the chaotic situation as it is now.

It is precisely this that some high-ranking Covenant officials have taken a fancy to this, and this is why they condone piracy. Just like herding herds, let these pirates rob the merchant group, strengthen their own strength, and then grow step by step in the form of alliances, annexations, etc. Next, the Star Covenant will select some of these larger forces, throw olive branches, and secretly buy them to deal with the strongholds planted by sovereign countries in the Tianchao Star Zone.

Under the influence of the above-mentioned factors, over time, it has created such a strange social background in the Tianchao Star Region. Due to the average intensity of the official crackdown on robbery and the low cost of crime, not only are small pirate organizations rampant, but even some expedition groups occasionally make cameo appearances as robbers, and even large and medium-sized business groups, as long as their interests are large, they will inevitably take risks and do a deal of murder and goods.

Under normal circumstances, pirates' actions mostly use the method of spy reconnaissance + scout stepping on the point + main force interception. There are generally two forms of so-called spy investigation: first, pirate members disguise themselves as passing passengers to spy on intelligence in Star Port and find the target; Second, bribe the ruffians of Star Harbor, as well as government employees and dock workers, so as to collect useful information and screen out the targets of robbery.

As for the scout stepping point, it is to use the reconnaissance ship to travel a certain distance outside the stellar system, and according to the cosmic environment, the main shipping routes, the distribution of government checkpoints, etc., release low-cost warp probes to spy on the course of the ship.

The main interception, as the name suggests, after the warp probe collects information such as the ship's course and warp speed level, the reconnaissance ship will transmit the number to the pirate fleet, and the interceptor ship will set up a warp interception net in the course in front of the target ship, so as to force it out of the virtual time and space, and then carry out the robbery.

To be honest, Tang Fang didn't think it was funny. He was more or less excited, it was a good thing that he didn't go to trouble those pirates, but he didn't expect these families to make their own ideas.

After changing the operation mode of the shield, the Tang side returned to the bridge, and after a few minutes of low-curvature sailing, the Morning Star had already arrived at the Star Alliance military interception network on the periphery of the "Jakarta Pur" star system.

A kind customs department sent a reminder message. The deep space probe sent a warning signal that there were suspicious ships loitering in the outer space of "Jakarta Pur", and the Star Alliance reminded the majority of merchants to pay attention to the fact that it is best to avoid sailing during this period and stay in "Lokia" with peace of mind to avoid unnecessary losses.

Not to mention, the political model like the Star Alliance is much higher in civilization than an imperial state like Mengya, and although the political rulers are not a good thing, the parliamentary government has done a good job of curbing the power of the higher-ups. More humane and democratized in some areas.

Grant politely refused the offer of the customs officer, and in desperation, the immigration management team had to open the channel and let the Morning Star sail away from "Jakarta Pur".

With the injection of zero-element energy, the warp velocity system is online, twisting the surrounding space-time and space, and constructing a warp force field. After that, the Morningstar flashed a few times. Turned into an afterimage and disappeared into the virtual space.

What Tang Fang and the others didn't know was that the Morningstar disappeared not long after. An order was issued from the "Jakarta Pur" military headquarters to the edge interception network, and then the entire border defense system was in turmoil.

……

On the other side, the Don side has already returned to the bridge. The Morning Star follows a predetermined route, with a warp speed of 6.5 scale, by the "Jakarta Pur" star system. Leap towards the "Babylon" star system more than 20 light-years away.

Under normal circumstances, this process will last half a month. However, the crew knew that there was an ambush ahead, but they didn't know where those pirate groups would attack.

If it is replaced by a general trade group. After learning that you are being targeted, you will inevitably have negative feelings such as fear and fear. But on board the Morningstar, the crew went their own way, without the slightest worry. It seemed to them that those poor fellows dared to fight the Morning Star, and they were simply tired of life and killed themselves.

Who is the captain? That's simply the ancestor of the thief, the ancestor of the thief, along the way, where is it not easy to get some benefits? Doing some sabotage? Those aristocratic forces in the Mengya Empire have played with him, and some pirates are so blind, is it really that the Morning Star is a soft persimmon?

In the past, a lightning python-class destroyer may not really be a big killer, but now, after being equipped with a shaped cannon, it is simply Sun Monkey who has obtained the Dinghaishen needle iron, and when he bombards it, he will die if he holds some of it, and he will die if he knocks some of it, and he will be torn and bruised.

"If you don't do it, you won't die, these 2B things." These are the two sentences that the chief cook repeats the most today.

The Morningstar is speeding forward in virtual space, and in 10 hours, according to the mileage shown by the computer, it has left the "Jakarta Pur" star system for nearly 0.7 light-years.

Tang Fang sat in the captain's seat and took a nap with half-squinted eyes, Claire and Zhou Ai had already gone back to the room to rest, and Nehemeyer was also persuaded by Tang Fang to return to the room, and only he, Grant, and Yuffie were left on the bridge, several crew members of the pilot team, and Hausen and Churchill.

The spirit of these two rammed goods is bigger than everyone else, what do you say This is the virgin of the main gun of the Morningstar, the female shooter, the shaped cannon is like the sons of the two of them, how can they be absent at this time.

"Have you ever seen whose son get married, and when Lao Tzu's haunted cave house doesn't talk about it, he still doesn't leave, and he has to listen to it?" This is Tang Fang's complaint.

The two of them ignored this sentence very tacitly, and the captain who was sleep-deprived was a standard temper and anxious, so he let the two of them lie down.

After driving safely for a while, when Tang Fang finished eating the hand-rolled noodles sent by Claire and was lying drowsy on the sofa, Yuffe, the ship's officer in front of the combat command platform, suddenly turned around and said: "Captain, the warp force field is disordered, the space-time bubble encounters external high pressure, and the Morning Star is expected to leave the virtual space in 3 seconds." ”

"Are you here...... Tang Fang opened his eyes suddenly, and Grant next to him also woke up from his coma.

At the same time, the alarm function of the navigation system was activated, and a swirling red light illuminated the faces of the people on the bridge.

In the blink of an eye, the warp force field constructed by the warp engine was disturbed by external forces, the space-time bubble pieces were broken, the recoil force acted on the hull, and the internal modules of the warp engine suffered from the field force backlash, passively went offline, and the rampaging energy formed a pulse storm in the entire ship's electrical circuit. Overloaded with more than 60% of the ship's electronics.

The lights on the bridge flickered on and off, the star map projection in the center of the combat command station shook violently, and the displays related to some of the ship's functional modules were already snowflakes.

The piloting team and others were nervously busy, while inspecting the damage to the ship's electrical equipment, notifying the two "Cupids" and the maintenance team staff to rush to the corresponding places, and correcting the navigation parameters on the other hand. Try to keep the ship steady down.

Compared to them, Hausen and Churchill were full of excitement, their four eyes glued to a pitch-black central screen, waiting for the thieves who didn't open their eyes to appear.

It was a laborious scene, but in fact it was only a few seconds, and as the space-time bubble around the hull collapsed, a silver light inadvertently flashed on the surface of the Morningstar.

In the vast universe, a streamer suddenly flashed somewhere that was originally empty. In the blink of an eye, the 200-meter hull of the Morning Star appeared very abruptly in the dark deep space.

Under normal conditions, the viewing cabin directly in front of the Morningstar's hull, as well as the left and right portholes, should be brightly lit, but now, it is flickering and flickering, and the lights are uncertain.

Nearly 100 kilometers in front of the Morning Star, 18 warships surrounded it in four directions.

The battleships were divided into four classes, the smallest of which was less than 100 meters. There are 6 ships in total, and 8 ships are over 100 meters. 3 ships at about 200 meters, and a cruiser at about 300 meters.

The combination of these 18 ships is very strange, all kinds, frigates, destroyers, reconnaissance ships, interception ships, and fast landing ships.

And that's not all. The patterns are even more complex and varied, including the Covenant's Longsword-class frigate and scimitar-class interceptor ship, the Charles Federation's Rice Spoon Snake-class assault boat, and the Dorlanx Republic's Water Dragonfly-class reconnaissance ship. In addition to this, Tang Fang also saw an old friend. A Tiger Shark-class destroyer from the Monya Empire.

Almost all of these official warships have undergone different modifications, such as the Tiger Shark-class destroyers of the Monya Empire, with uneven surfaces and uneven spots, and large and small patches on some craters. This couldn't help but make Tang Fang cry and laugh, this is going to take the beggars, how many bags of elders do you need?

If you want to say that it's just like this, forget it, after all, they are pirates, and they don't have the financial and material resources like the Star Alliance, and the level of maintenance is not up to par, so they can only deal with it, but ...... But what about the modifications of those civilian-class ships? Obviously a mining ship, or an outdated model, do you really think that you can use it as a battleship with two howitzers or a few improvised torpedo launchers? This Nima is definitely less reliable than Mr. Dongguo.

Besides, the largest cruiser, from the outside, resembles the Sea Lion-class cruiser of the Sulu Empire, however, it is a scrapped product, empty of shape, without its god. There are no heavy guns in the bow, there are no heavy cruise missile systems, and the 330-meter cruiser of the TMD was equipped with a set of 220mm railguns by this group of pirates.

What do you call this? This TM proper tower body has a toothpick root, which really makes people cry and laugh.

Looking at the 18 high-spirited pirate fleets on the monitor array in front of him, surging towards the Morning Star like bandits robbing their daughters-in-law, Tang Fang couldn't help but smile bitterly, which couldn't help but remind him of some old movies from the 80s.

As soon as the evil capitalists get off the bus, they will always attract a crowd of beggars. Tang Fang felt that he was the capitalist, and these pirates around him were naturally a group of beggars.

"Captain, the maintenance team has sent a communication, and the weapon system has been repaired." At this point, Yuffie turned back and reported the progress of the repairs.

"Don't worry, let's see what those people say." Tang Fang glanced at the connection request on the big screen in front of him and said lightly.

"Yes." Yuffie agreed, and then clicked the confirmation button.

A figure flashed on the big screen on the bridge, and an Indian man in his 40s, with a slightly dark complexion, and a light blue turban on his head, appeared in front of Tang.

"You're the captain?" The man looked at Tang Fang carefully with a scrutinizing gaze, and said expressionlessly.

"Not bad."

"Open the docking compartment immediately, and surrender your weapons!" The man commanded in an extremely stiff tone.

Tang Fang felt that he was too strict and not fun, so he turned his head to look at Grant, his heart moved, he pretended to be afraid, and stammered: "You...... Who are you? ”

"We?" The man was very satisfied with his appearance, and said proudly, "What person...... Hmph, it scares you to death when you say it, have you heard of 'Garuda'? Radu, the famous pirate leader of the galaxy? Has Khan heard of it? That's us! ”

Tang Fang almost laughed, his feelings are that this thing is a deflated calf Ah San who will shine when he gives a little sunshine, just this crooked melon and cracked dates 18 broken boats, and TM is also famous for moving the galaxy?

"It turned out to be Radu, the leader of the 'Garuda' Pirates who moved the galaxy? Your Excellency Khan, look up for a long time. "This guy has always had a bad stomach, and when he meets Captain Ah San, he will inevitably have to play a prank.

At the same time, converted from the Sulu Empire's Sea Lion-class cruiser, it was converted by Radu? The Khan named the "Garuda" pirate flagship bridge of the Jinpeng.

The elder of the third regiment was shaking his thick eyebrows, enjoying the crew's ass with a cowish face.

"Long live the head of the regiment, 'Garuda' Wuyun is prosperous......"

"Long live the head of the regiment, 'Garuda' Wuyun is prosperous......"

Radu? Khan squinted, smug on his face. It's not just the "Garuda" family that is eyeing this piece of fat, after Hilgai made that incident, many pirate forces got the news, and even some explorer teams were ready to make a profit. (To be continued......)
