[Bearded] Barnes & Noble looked at the star map depressed at the moment, as the leader of the S33 fleet, he had previously received a risk prediction report from the Imperial Intelligence Agency, which said that the probability of encountering danger on this voyage was as high as 80%. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Originally, Barnes & Noble didn't intend to believe this nonsense report from the Ministry of Intelligence, because this kind of risk prediction business for all interstellar transportation companies has always had a dismal accuracy rate of 0.333 percent.

Despite being the exclusive intelligence system of the Galactic Empire, its pathetic efficiency and outrageous probability of mistakes have put the Galactic Empire Intelligence Agency in an extremely miserable position in the entire intelligence community.

If it weren't for the Galactic Empire's official requirement that all fleets of long-distance ships must purchase a risk insurance at the same time as obtaining the forecast report, the Galactic Empire's intelligence bureau would have to cut off a large part of the fund.

So, when S33 received the risk prediction report of forced winning, it just glanced at it and threw it into the trash.

It's just that now Barnes & Noble regrets it, and he should have believed it if he knew it......

Barnes & Noble's official title is Pan North Galaxy Group 1 Escort Team Leader, where he provides escort and navigation operations for Pan North Galaxy Group merchant vessels, which are often conducted in highly hazardous areas. Another high level that is diametrically opposed to a high-security zone...... In this hellish place, even in the waterway, there is a group of meteors that may fly at any time, and before you have time to react, your starship will be smashed to pieces.

"Report to the captain, the outer patrol team has found a space fighter, bearing XXXXX." In the flagship command room, the voice of the communicator makes the whole space even more oppressive.

"It's this kind of news again...... "Barnes & Noble's frustration is for these discovered space fighters." Space fighters are consumables, such as the Peregrine 16, which was once the main fighter of the Federation Fleet, but now it is an antique that has been eliminated by the Federation Navy for I don't know how many years, but it is a very hot and sought-after item on the interstellar black market. Even with a long-obsolete fighter for reconnaissance, it is far safer and faster than a modified frigate.

In the world of pirates and interstellar traders, most of the pilots are not masters, because they only undertake pre-war reconnaissance missions, not like pilots in the army, and also take on tasks such as observing artillery fire and intercepting small targets. Therefore, people who are active in the Northern Universe must know that whether it is the Federation or the Galactic Empire, their fighters have lethal power.

Being watched by a space fighter during the voyage means that danger is approaching. This is already the consensus of merchants and pirates who have been active in the airspace of the Yanhuang Federation and the Galactic Empire since the fighter entered the civilian era. However, this is the source of the Western Universe, and further west of the Federation, the people here have only heard of it, but have never actually encountered it.

In a sense, the Federation can ensure the security of space within its territory because it has the most pilots and the latest fighters. No pirate was willing to challenge the dragnet search circle set up by the Federation Navy's Space Fighter Force, and all pirates who dared to challenge fell under the seemingly weak firepower of the fighter squadron.

Everyone knows that it means danger to find a space fighter in the universe that is not your own.

However, no matter how much the sad Barnes and his S33 changed course, they always found that the new space fighter was peering into the entire fleet from afar. Since the first discovery when entering the Crescent Moon region seven days ago, it has changed course six times so far, but in exchange for more than twenty times it has received the news that the fighter plane has been spotted peeping in the distance.

This worrying situation forced Barnes & Noble to make the decision to join the nearby S41 fleet, hoping to assemble the forces of the two convoys and make it difficult for the jackals watching the fleet to retreat.

However, Barnes & Noble did not know that the convergence with the S41 fleet would pose a greater danger to himself...... Because there are more ill-intentioned guys behind the S41 fleet.

……

"What's going on now?" Lu Lu grinned and looked at the large screen on the bridge, which showed the distribution of forces of various colors, in addition to the star map displayed in great detail. According to the convention, blue is a friendly army, green is the same fleet, orange is the principle of other countries, and red is the principle of hostile forces, and the major galaxies in the Crescent region are plastered with red logos.

The white bar on a red background is usually called the "red minus", and the white cross on a red background is called the "red star", which belongs to the kind that must kill the other party.

On the screen facing Lu Lu at this moment, a solid circle representing no threat was red wrapped in the circle, and in the red encirclement, a bunch of small greens were sadly displayed, and there was no doubt that it was the advance force of Lu Lu's previous exclusion of tracking the S33 fleet.

"A little green among the flowers...... What a terrible state to be. Lu Lu covered his face helplessly, the current situation made him suddenly feel a little toothache.

Although this situation had been predicted a week ago, when the facts were in front of him, Lu Lu still very much hoped that he could choose to escape.

"The Holy War Crusader, the legendary largest of the Emma Empire, and the most famous legion in the universe." Colonel Li Ce pointed to the "red stars" entrenched in the south of the screen.

"The Holy War Crusade Legion is the second echelon of the armed forces of the Emma Empire, and here it is the Twenty-fourth Legion. Troop operation code [T24]. Hayabusa gave a more detailed introduction.

"A typical militia gathering, and now we are half a pound and eight taels." Lu Lu unceremoniously complained about both the enemy and me. This T24, although it is said to be stronger than other empire counterparts in every way, is extremely despised by some people because of the extreme ideas it pursues. "However, they are at least the most notorious armed group in the Southern Universe."

"Are you talking about yourself? Admiral. Hayabusa said subconsciously. Judging from the thinking of the Emma people, the most bastard in the Southern Universe is the Federation privateer Storm Fleet. He often raided deep space mining ships, plundered transport ships in the waterways for a long time, and most hatefully penetrated into the territory of the Emma Empire and stole several industrial flagships.

"Ahem......" Lu Lu pretended to cough awkwardly, and then pulled the topic away. The Tashmeng Gong family's armament is also red, after all, it is a new star field, and there is little conflict for their own interests. ”

"We'll try to coordinate with Tashmungon as much as possible, but it's better not to expect that, the young lady's right to head the house is not everything." Hayabusa replied with a frown.

"Ahem, in fact, there is credible intelligence that the Emma Empire is going through a great upheaval." Lu Lu shrugged and didn't seem to care. "I don't think Catis will have time to pay attention to things here, well, for the sake of my allies, I will do my best to protect their interests in this area."

The 9527th Exploration Fleet of the Yanhuang Federation, an exploration fleet with a slightly larger establishment and a little more weapons, entered the Crescent Moon region in February of the new year. Due to various reasons, the fleet, which failed to achieve complete concealment, was discovered by various local forces as soon as it entered the domain of the source.

All of a sudden, the entire Crescent Moon region's star network became busy, and all kinds of forces, large and small, friendly and hostile, became active.

……

For the vast Domain of the Fountains, the size of the Exploration Fleet is indeed very small. However, that only refers to the power of the fleet itself, if according to Lu Lu's idea, the entire fleet is built with battleships as the core to become an airport integrating mining and manufacturing, and dozens of galaxies can be easily controlled in the hands.

However, in the process of building the airport, Lulu lacks the most important link, that is, the population. It can also be said to be the biggest weakness of the entire federation, there are too few laborers available. Whether it's industry or war, population is the most important factor. Sometimes the Federation would envy the Emma and envy them for having a lot of cheap labor.

"Is the general having a headache over the lack of labor?" Li Ce was just a professional soldier and had only war in his life. His Excellency, who had never thought too much, suddenly felt very ignorant.

"yes, it's a headache indeed." Lu Lu shrugged casually...... There was no sense of urgency in the tone at all. "Although the combat effectiveness of the fleet is good, the number of people is indeed too small."

"How could you have a headache for such a thing." Falcon lowered his head and didn't look at Lu Lu. She knew Lu Lu too well, better than anyone else. "He was ready for a long time, cheap labor."

"Heh......" Lu Lu chuckled lowly. You know me, Hayabusa. ”

Carter is an Emma man, both for himself and for his Emma Empire, whose largest source of labor is slaves. As the only country in the universe that recognizes the legal existence of the "slave" class, Carter, as the nobleman of this country, certainly has the right to use slaves. It can be said that when Lu Lu contacted Carter to discuss economic development, Falcon knew what Lu Lu was thinking.

"Mass adoption of slaves?" Li Ce frowned, with dissatisfaction in his eyes. "Even if the Domain of Fountain is not the territory of the Federation, this is too much."

"Of course, it won't be what you think." Lu Lu explained to his subordinates in a good-natured manner. Even in Emma, the status and rights of slaves vary according to the area of the family. Carter is a liberal aristocrat and will not oppress the Mi people too much. Well......"

After Lu Lu's seemingly helpless explanation was over, he turned his gaze to Falcon. It was because of what Falcon hated, the system of that country, and the contempt that the family had for slaves, that made Lu Lu go around in such a huge circle. In a sense, the extra trouble is just to take care of Hayabusa's thoughts.

"We're not here for charity." Lu Lu sighed, they all knew that their hands were already stained with the blood of the Mimatar people. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
