Kerry Jin took half of the goods and left, he promised to bring the gold that Ouyang Yu needed in two days, Ouyang Yu was not afraid that he would not come back and trade with him, because the most valuable pirate warship was still in his hands, and a few ships of goods were actually not worth a few dollars.
The pirate leader Schroeder, Ouyang Yu, prepared to execute him, escorted Schroeder to Gnaku and ordered him to kneel with several of his men, and the skeletons stepped forward and raised their electromagnetic rifles and aimed them at the back of Schroeder's head.
By this time, Schroeder knew in their hearts that it was inevitable that they would die, but the instinct for survival made him open his mouth and shout: "My lord, please don't kill me, I ...... I'm willing to be your slave and serve you!"
"Stop. Ouyang Yu walked up to Schroeder and asked, "I have a boat and people, what can you do that is worth using me?"
Hearing Ouyang Yu's words made Schroeder know that if he said something useful about himself, he didn't have to die, "I am familiar with all the unknown routes in this star field, and I also have contacts with several pirate groups!"
"I don't need any of this, I'm going to be executed. ”
Schroeder's brain turned sharply, and he couldn't say anything useful to Ouyang Yu, his life was difficult to protect, and suddenly he thought of something and hurriedly shouted: "I know where there is blue gold, a lot of blue gold!"
A smile hung up on the corner of Ouyang Yu's mouth, "Tell me where Lan Jin is, I can spare your life." "Where there's blue gold, there's a lot of gold. Ouyang Yu was still very interested in this news.
"Yes, yes. Not long ago, I heard from another pirate leader that a company had dug up a small vein of blue gold in another galaxy forty light-years away. However, the company that excavated the veins was illegally excavated without the approval of the Imperial Ministry of Land and Resources, and did not report it according to the regulations after discovering it, and the company had some capital to bribe local imperial officials to turn a blind eye, and then secretly mined and smuggled blue gold by itself. Saying this, Schroeder secretly glanced at Ouyang Yu, a little apprehensive in his heart, not knowing if this news could move her.
"Go on. ”
Seeing that Ouyang Yu was really interested, Schroder hurriedly continued: "The news that the company dug up the blue gold vein soon spread throughout the underground world of several nearby star fields, and many people hoped to take the vein over, but they were afraid of the company's powerful security team and did not dare to move, so some people secretly connected in the hope of gathering all the underground forces nearby to seize the vein, and I was also invited a few days ago." ”
"Hmm. Do you know how many underground forces will participate, and who will be the initiators?"
"As far as I know, there are already more than a dozen pirate groups that have indicated that they will participate, and there are five or six smugglers who will also participate, and the total number of these forces is not less than five hundred warships and thousands of warplanes. ”
"Battleships, hehe, are they all junk cargo converted from merchant ships like you and Kerry King?" Ouyang Yu sneered.
Schroeder blushed and nodded: "There is no way that the empire is very strict in the management of military supplies, especially the management of warships and the like, there is no way to get it at all, even if there is a way, it can only be bought with a lot of money like Kerry King, and all the small destroyers that are armed and scrapped are not bought, and large warships above the light cruiser cannot be bought with money." So we can only refit with merchant ships. ”
"So what about the strength of the company you want to rob? You are so jealous of the other party's strength, do they have regular warships?"
Schroeder shook his head and said: "Yes, no matter who the empire is, it will not allow private individuals or companies to own military warships, but there are policies and countermeasures, and that company has the money and connections to buy off the officers of the local garrison fleet." The purchase of several dismantled frigates and destroyers in the name of scrapping, and then the purchase of a full set of shipboard armed systems from the black market and the rearmament of those frigates and destroyers, the difference between military warships and converted armed merchant ships is too great. A military warship, even a 130-meter-class frigate, can easily deal with five 500-meter-class armed merchant ships, except for those few military warships that have been purchased at sky-high prices. The company also had more than 60 armed merchant ships and a security force of thousands of people, so the initiators needed to gather a large number of underground forces to attack together. As for the initiators, there is gossip that it is a hostile company of that company, and they are unwilling to see their sworn enemy grow and grow, and that company itself has no strength to fight, so they thought of gathering underground forces to jointly seize the ore vein. ”
"Don't the local imperial officials care about these things?"
Schroeder glanced at his mouth and said disdainfully: "That group of bureaucrats don't care who controls the ore veins in their hands, as long as they can satisfy their bottomless appetite, they won't care about these things, and they will only take action when their interests are affected." ”
"Hehe, are all the bureaucrats in the whole universe the same?" Ouyang Yu thought of the nobles and officials he met on his home planet.
"Schroeder. Ouyang Yu waved his hand, and the skeleton soldiers put away their guns and stood upright.
"Yes, sir. Schroeder knelt on the ground and replied respectfully.
"I'll go with you to the underground forces in a few days, and you're still going to participate as a viper pirate group, do you understand?"
"Yes, my lord, I understand, I will definitely cover the true identity of my lord, and I will find out all the secrets and seize the ore vein for my lord's desperate allegiance!"
"If this matter satisfies me, your benefits will not be less, this is given to you in advance. After saying that, Ouyang Yu threw away two healing wounds, the blue light flashed, Schroeder suddenly felt a burst of comfort in his body, as if he was several years younger, and the dark injuries left by his early years of hard work were all gone, he hurriedly pulled open the clothes on his chest in surprise and looked down, there was originally a huge scar on his chest, but now it is gone, leaving only strong muscles and dense chest hair and a healthy body.
"Thank you, sir!" Ouyang Yu's hand made Schroeder, who was forced to surrender in a hurry, feel that maybe he was with the right person. The resistance of the heart has been reduced a lot, and this thank you is also sincere.
"It's just a small thing. Follow me, even if you want to die, return to your pirate group and pacify your men. I don't want something to happen. ”
"Yes, sir. Schroeder quit and got on the shuttle and left the Undead Avenger.
After temporarily subduing Schroeder, Ouyang Yu waited in place for two days, and Kerry Jin was very trustworthy to send the gold that Ouyang Yu needed on the third day, but it was ten cargo ships weighing more than 1.7 million tons of unrefined gold ore, Kerry King's explanation was that because almost no one wanted gold, no one would waste time, money and effort to refine, plus Ouyang Yu had a short time, so he could only transport gold ore.
Looking at Kerry Kim's treacherous smiling face, Ouyang Yu couldn't wait to punch this nasty smiling face, it was really no treacherous business. What's more, he is still an illegal smuggler, if it weren't for the fact that this guy would still be useful in the future, Ouyang Yu would definitely kill him at this time.
After receiving the gold ore and handing over the remaining half of the goods to Kerry Jin and agreeing on the contact information, Ouyang Yu followed Schroeder to attend the party before the robbery, the Undead Avenger has equipment for purifying gold, and the more than 1.7 million tons of gold ore have refined less than 100,000 tons of gold in total, although it doesn't seem much, but it is more than half of the total amount of gold that Ouyang Yu has robbed in several worlds.
A day later, more than 200 armed merchant ships, large and small, in the numbered S195314V star system gathered together, and one of them, a 700-meter-long silver-white private cruise ship, was particularly dazzling under the protection of three 130-meter-class frigates and more than 40 armed merchant ships.
There is no music in the dance halls of the cruise ships, which usually rise and dance. There was no dancing, just hundreds of rude and fierce men with guns and a group of smugglers who looked like profiteers, the owner of the cruise ship and the initiator of the operation, the second son of the owner of Abby Ammon's company. Richard Ammon walked onto the stage in an elegant posture in a modest evening gown and a wine glass.
He glanced at the pirate leaders and smugglers who had gathered at his invitation below the stage, their handsome blue faces smiling contemptuously. Suddenly, his gaze stopped somewhere, and a beautiful woman with red hair in her early twenties caught his eye.
The red-haired beauty wears a white outfit. Black is supplemented by a well-tailored military uniform. Richard Ammon hadn't seen the style of the uniform, but he knew who the man sitting in front of the red-haired beauty was, the leader of the Viper Pirates, Schroeder, and several of his men were also wearing uniforms of the same color and style, and it seemed that the red-haired beauty was also from the Viper Pirates, "It's a pity that she is from a different ethnic background, otherwise she can marry home as a side room." Richard Ammon thought with some regret.
Gently knocked on the wine glass, and after the noisy hall gradually quieted down, Richard Ammon said loudly: "Thank you very much for accepting my invitation to come to today's meeting, and I wish you all good health!" After speaking, he drank all the wine in the glass, and everyone in the audience drank all the wine in their glasses with more face.
After the maid had refilled Richard Ammon's glass, Richard Ammon continued: "I will not repeat what you have come here for, I want to say that we are going to make a fortune this time. ”
"Hahaha......!" Richard Ammon said, causing a burst of laughter from below.
"Everyone, there are rules for doing things, there must be a rule for being a person and doing things, nothing can be done without rules, and this operation is the same, we need a leader to attack the blue gold vein controlled by Aipo Company, and this leader will command the operation in a unified manner, and now we will recommend a leader to come out and command everyone." Richard Ammon finished speaking and observed the movements of everyone below.
It's a common truth in the universe that snakes don't have a head, but this snake head is not so easy to be, the underground forces pursue fists, whoever has a big fist can serve the public, and today only Richard Ammon's fist is the largest, so he is the leader, before coming, many pirate leaders and smugglers have done some investigations on the start, Abby Ammon is the leading large company in several star fields, and has a good relationship with the imperial officials, and secretly raises a private army of tens of thousands of people. This is already a semi-open secret in several nearby star fields, and the pirate leaders and smugglers here are all human spirits, and no one will come forward to fight for the position of the boss.
Sure enough, seeing that no one nominated him, Richard Ammon shamelessly recommended himself. Having determined the position of the chief, Richard Ammon immediately called the orders and determined the system of distribution of benefits.
After conquering the vein, Richard Ammon presented everyone with two options. One was to get five percent of the proceeds permanently, and the other was to receive a one-time payment of five million imperial gold pesos from Richard Ammon instead of the smugglers, and then everyone negotiated some details and settled on everything.
Richard Ammon raised his glass and exclaimed, "May we have a successful start!"
"Victory!" ×N.
After a night of revelry, the pirate fleet left the anchorage the next day and set out in the direction of the veins indicated by Richard Ammon.
The blue gold vein is located on a planet with a harsh environment, and the frequent geological activity and the eruption of thousands of large and small volcanoes have filled the surface of this planet numbered HE1608DD with sulfur dioxide and acid gases, and there are thousands of degrees of lava lakes everywhere, with an average temperature of more than 400 degrees, and any life will die in a few minutes in this environment.
The Epper Corporation's prospecting team has inadvertently discovered a vein of blue gold on the planet. Then a mining farm was established on the surface of the planet, where hundreds of thousands of foreign slaves worked day and night to dig up other people's wealth, these slaves no one cared about, they ate poorly, they lived poorly, and no one would treat them when they were sick, and if they unfortunately died, the overseer of the mine usually carried the body out and threw it into a lava lake.
Ryan, the security manager of the Epper Company, was sitting in his office at the mine with some uneasiness, and the head office had sent him a message a week earlier that the company's nemesis, Abby Ammon, would organize a fleet to seize the mine. Although the head office sent him reinforcements, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Sir, the enemy is coming!" Ryan's beautiful little secretary panicked and broke into his office without even knocking on the door, but Ryan didn't lose his temper about it, first of all, his little secretary was his lover. In addition, it was not very pleasant to wait for others to fight, but now he was relieved to hear that the enemy was coming to the door.
Ryan got up from the wide chair and tidied up his clothes, he was a neat man. With his hands behind his back, he calmly said to the little secretary: "Don't panic, dear, issue a first-level alert." Command the fleet to meet the enemy immediately. ”
More than 130 armed merchant ships belonging to the Aper, led by a destroyer and three frigates, formed a position in the planet's synchronous orbit.
A fleet of pirates appears near the planet's Lagrange point. Facing the fleet of the Epper Company, Richard Ammon ordered in his communication: "Set up the offensive formation, and I will reward whoever fights bravely and destroys more enemies, and I promise here how many ships you have lost in the battle here, and how many ships I will replenish for you afterwards, and I will never break my word!"
Richard Ammon's words greatly boosted the morale of the pirates, and the pirates, who had been thinking about preserving their strength, decided to show their real skills and fight well.
Richard Ammon's cruise ship also arrived together, but it would not go to the battlefield, Richard Ammon sat in the cab of the cruise ship, sipped wine, looked at the holographic projection of the battlefield in front of him, and said to himself: " Fight, hurry up, wait for the fleet of the Epper company to be wiped out is your death period, one day a group of pirates attacked the mine of the Epper company, and killed all the people in a frenzy, and then the security fleet of our Abby Armon company found the atrocities of the pirates when passing here, although the pirates were finally eliminated after a hard battle, but all the staff of the Epper company have unfortunately died, and the personnel of the Abby Armon company found that the mine of the Epper company here is not the iron mine they announced but the blue gold mine, and the illegal behavior of the Epper company was accidentally exposed, and the empire punished it heavilyThis mine was also nationalized and then handed over to Abby Ammon to be developed as an agent, what a perfect script, Miss Catherine, don't you say?"
The royal sister version of Ouyang Yu was standing behind Richard Ammon at this time, and the clothes on her body were changed into gorgeous traditional clothes of the Hodder Empire, which were given to her by Richard Ammon.
After the meeting that day, Richard Ammon found Schroeder and asked him for Ouyang Yu, even smugglers and pirates in the Hod Empire. Its leaders are also pure-blood or mixed-race Hodders, and non-blue-skinned aliens cannot become leaders. This is because the main body of the Hod Empire is the Hode people, and the oppressive system with deep national hierarchies is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even smugglers and pirates will consciously maintain this system and suppress all foreign races, so in Richard Aamon's opinion, following Schroeder, the non-blue-skinned Ouyang Yu must be his lover or slave and not anyone else.
Just when Schroeder didn't know how to answer Richard Eamond's request, Ouyang Yu used magic power to tell him to agree to the other party, so on the surface, Ouyang Yu became a slave given by Schroeder to Richard Ammon, and Richard Ammon promised not to pay him 10,000 imperial gold pesos for purchase in vain.
Richard Ammon is a very conceited person, has a strong desire to conquer the opposite sex, and likes the women around him to surrender to him, both physically and psychologically, so he did not get angry after wanting Ouyang Yu to sleep that night and was rejected. Instead, he decided to show his excellent side and let Ouyang Yu fall in love with him and be completely conquered from body to heart, which would give him an inexplicable sense of achievement.
Ouyang Yu just smiled and didn't speak, because from the time she subdued Schroeder, Richard Ammon was already doomed to failure.
The fleet of the Aipo Company and the pirate fleet soon entered the range of the two sides, and the fierce battle began, but compared with the regular fleet of the Hod Empire, the so-called warships and so-called warplanes on both sides were much worse, in Ouyang Yu's opinion, this battle was completely a worse battle, only worse than the worst, just like the online game tractor world she played in her previous life. The trick to winning in the wild team room is fifteen people on one side, which side has less two forces will win, and the other online game is the same, and the team with the fewest elementary school students will win.
Now the battle on both sides is about the same. Command, command does not work, cooperate. Coordination is not good, out of position. The position is not good, and the gunnery is even worse. Don't they know that shrinking circles is all a joke, and that their fate depends on the truth of faith?
The commander of the pirate fleet seemed to have heard Ouyang Yu's complaints, and under his command, the pirate fleet no longer conducted long-range shooting with the fleet of the Aipo Company, but relied on the number of nearly half more than the opponent, and all the members pressed and fought with the other party.
The three frigates that took the lead were Richard Ammon's frigates, and the rest of the armed merchant ships belonging to him also followed closely behind, and the pirates were naturally embarrassed to stay in place when they saw the boss's fleet taking the lead, so they followed and also launched a charge, which Schroeder's pirate fleet was also inside, but he fell behind according to Ouyang Yu's orders, ready to run away at any time.
As the distance approached, the hit rate of the two sides skyrocketed, the fleet of the Aipo company wanted to run but couldn't run, the blue gold mine was below, and as soon as they ran, the pirate fleet could carry out landing operations unscrupulously, and the mine without the cover of the fleet could not last long, don't hope that the security guards of the mine would fight to the death for the Aipo company, and it could already be regarded as a dutiful security guard if they could hold on for a round without surrendering.
Therefore, the fleet commander of the Epper Company had no choice but to order his warships to be hard topped, but after all, the number was too small and was beaten by the pirate fleet after approaching the surroundment, and in a very short period of time more than 30 so-called battleships were destroyed, and the rest were all wounded, and the pirates were very cunning to take advantage of the numerical advantage to take turns to bear the damage, although it seemed that all of them were injured, but only a few battleships were destroyed, and the battleships did not lose their combat effectiveness, and the artillery fire fired was still relatively fierce.
After the destroyer of the flagship of the Aper's fleet was destroyed with more than half of the casualties, the remaining security guards on the battleship completely lost their morale and surrendered, and it was stipulated before the war that whoever boarded the other party's battleship would belong to whom, so the pirates happily sent a large number of small boats to land on the other party's warships to grab the spoils, because the number of pirate groups was relatively large, and the surrendered warships were relatively small, and the pirates quarreled under the uneven distribution of spoils, and even developed to target each other with naval guns.
As the leader, Richard Ammon did not say anything to stop him, but stood by as if watching the show, and no one except Schroeder noticed that Richard Ammon's fleet was quietly leaving.
Keeping Ouyang Yu's order in mind, Schroeder also ordered his pirate ship to quickly distance itself from the large force, and not long after leaving, the CIC on board reported that a large number of hyperspace signals had been found.
Dozens of real regular warships of the Hodder Empire and hundreds of armed merchant ships belonging to Abby Ammon suddenly appeared near the battlefield, and then without saying a word, they launched a fierce attack on the pirate fleet that did not know what was going on and the fleet of the Aiper Company that had surrendered, this fleet had one 1,000-meter heavy cruiser, two 600-meter light cruisers, 20 300-meter destroyers, 300-meter frigates, and two 200-meter light air carriers and more than 100 fighters.
The difference between the real military warships and the armed merchant ships, the regular army and the rabble is particularly obvious at this moment, accurate gunnony, powerful shipboard weapons, much faster speed and heavy armor than the armed merchant ships, the pirate fleet and the fleet surrendered by the Aper Company were quickly wiped out under the blows of the regular army, and the armed merchant ships of the Abby Aymon Company no longer even fired, but blocked the entire battlefield to eliminate the pirates who wanted to escape.
In a very short period of twenty-eight minutes, more than 200 armed merchant ships were completely wiped out under the blows of dozens of regular fleets of the Hod Empire, and became garbage in space.
Richard Ammon happily opened the message, and a colonel from the Hord Empire appeared in the frame, "Hahaha...... Colonel Tim, thank you for your help. ”
"Don't thank me Richard, my fleet has never been here, it's all done by your security fleet. Colonel Tim said with a stern face.
"Hahaha...... Yes, you and your fleet have never been here, and you are conducting your annual daily exercises in the nearby galaxy. The two of them laughed heartily.
"There's also a pirate fleet there, so I'll do it for you before I leave. ”
"Thank you, your sister-in-law's account will be in a few days for some reason why there will be a lot of money, I think the bank's system is wrong. ”
"I wish there were a few more mistakes like this, so bye. Colonel Tim gave a military salute and ended the call.
The garrison fleet that had been bribed by Richard Ammon was killing Schroeder's pirate fleet, Ouyang Yu would not allow this to happen, and it was time for the mantis cicada to come out later.
Under Ouyang Yu's mind, more than a hundred fantasy-class cruisers suddenly appeared near the Richard Ammon cruise ship, aiming at the garrison fleet is a salvo, catching the unprepared garrison fleet by surprise, and then the stealthy thousands of banshee fighters suddenly appeared at a very close distance to kill the two air carriers first, and then split out a part to pounce on the fighters of the garrison fleet, and the other part to kill Richard Ammon's armed merchant fleet.
Twenty-eight minutes later, the garrison fleet and Richard Ammon's armed merchant fleet were wiped out, and a large number of vampire special forces who had been upgraded to ghost agents appeared out of thin air on his cruise ship.
Richard Ammon, who was being pointed at several C-10 sniper rifles, stared blankly at the vampire agents who were aiming at him and asked, "Who are you?"
Ouyang Yu turned around on the spot, and the white light flashed with a button, changed his clothes, put on the uniform of the Earth United Army, and said to him: "We are the ones who have taken revenge on the Hod Empire, and you are honored to be my first target. (To be continued......)
