Chapter 1726: The enemy can go, and I can go again
The pioneer team of Mr. Wu and his wife, the mercenary group led by Mr. Ginsu, the famous Terrabi mercenary, and the ancient American working group led by Agnes are all under the leadership of a certain "Dragon of Dawn" Below the line, he became the owner of Beifeng Development Company.
People's United... was still just a Red Star firm at the time. As an investor, it held the largest share of the shares, and the remaining shares were divided among the three founders. Of course, they are theoretically supporting their respective teams. As a result, the company suddenly began to resemble a collective enterprise.
In the subsequent development, the company's development has also been very smooth. Beifeng Company has taken on a lot of work in New China and has made a lot of contributions to the development of remote planets that are inaccessible to people.
Then, came the outbreak of the Condemnation War and the discovery of the Lanza Galaxy.
After all, with the Dawn Star Field, the Blue Star Community really does not have more manpower and material resources to develop this galaxy far away from the Dawn Channel and the New World Highway. So, with the contact between Mr. Qi and Mr. Bai, the Earth government signed a planet development agreement with Beifeng Company, and readily gave the down payment
This is certainly not a behind-the-scenes operation. Although Beifeng Company is a new company, Mr. Wu and Mr. Ginsu are both celebrities, which is particularly in line with the consistent style of government bureaucrats who only rely on reputation when selecting people.
Of course, bureaucrats also have other advantages. As long as I identify you, I will be more generous than all kinds of capitalists when I pay.
In short, with the down payment, the initial development of the company went very smoothly. Mr. Wu even purchased a group of slaves from the empire, from all races, and told them that as long as they worked hard within ten years, they would be able to regain their freedom and become citizens of the community. At the same time, they could also get their own land on the developed planet. If If you don't want the fields, you can still order French fries or something in the newly built town.
As a result, the colonial points of the empire and the community were completed almost at the same time. The number of residents in the settlement also exceeded 2,000 in the same week.
The empire accused the community that 90% of the so-called residents were bought from the slave market and could only be called livestock, not residents; Mr. Wu retorted and said that at least he paid for them.
Of course, since both sides have similar manpower and combat capabilities for this development, and the official agreement is to "put aside disputes and jointly develop," there is no prerequisite for turning a civil fight into an armed fight.
The pioneering teams on both sides just humiliated each other but got on with their lives without conflict. After everything was on track, they started to hold their noses and make some tentative contacts, greeting each other with disgust several times good morning, and then progressed to occasionally exchanging information on the animals and plants on the planet, and finally just held a sorority party.
When allied forces from various countries gathered in the Dawn Star Territory and fought fiercely with the predators, the small planet Lanza really felt like an idyllic pastoral.
In this holy planet with the same name as the galaxy, the ancient Meiya female ranger and her friends worked hard to explore the dense rainforests and mountains. She already knew from Yu Lian that there was an unmanned mothership of the Enlightened Ones in this galaxy, so there must be ruins of the Enlightened Ones on the Holy Land planet, so naturally she would never let go of exploration.
In the following year, Agnes and her fellow rangers traveled across the mountains, rivers and seas of Lanza, and also cooperated with the Star Viewer and the Investigating Judge sent by the empire. Their adventure can actually open up another epic adventure story.
During that period, the entire universe believed that "peace for a generation" seemed to be truly achievable, and everyone on Lanza was certainly no exception.
When the construction of the colony was just on track, Mr. Ginsu left with a group of capable Terrabi mercenaries, but this did not affect the subsequent construction work. Everyone waved handkerchiefs to say goodbye to him and wished him a safe journey in his new life.
Then, war broke out.
It must be admitted that in the early days of the war, everyone maintained unprecedented restraint, even the people on the opposite side were no exception.
The leaders of the colonies on both sides just stared. The person in charge of the imperial colony opposite, a senior manager of the Canaan Chamber of Commerce, the aristocratic Sir Blount also sincerely paid a visit in person.
"The sovereignty of this galaxy has not yet been determined. It is only managed by the civilized parliament, and the governance should be corporate. There is no need for us to delay our own business because of the disputes between the big shots. No matter how the world changes, new planets will always have to Developed. Isn’t it the task of us to expand the boundaries of civilization?”
Sir Blunt was hardly an imperial nobleman in his pragmatism. As a businessman, Mr. Wu would naturally not object. Even the ancient Meiya rebels like Agnes, who had no pretense towards the imperial aristocrats, felt that this man was a decent person.
The peaceful life in which everyone did not interfere with each other and even cooperated occasionally continued for a while. But in October 833, such a fragile peace was finally broken.
On October 5, two imperial warships arrived here and brought in about 5,000 pioneers. Of course there was normal immigration, but there was also a considerable amount of exile of criminals and slaves. Therefore, in order to maintain law and order, an entire reinforced battalion of Marines accompanied them, carrying field mechas and heavy weapons for use in jungles and mountains.
The balance of combat power on Lanza Planet has become too obviously tilted.
Of course, these marines did not fail to bombard the Beifeng Company's immigration stronghold with heavy artillery. They did not even take the initiative to attack. Instead, they occupied a high point in the nearby mountains and overlooked the camp below.
The atmosphere became tense.
When the time came to 834, another group of immigrants came over, and they also sent a large number of reclamation vehicles, mechanical vehicles that could be used as tanks by removing the excavation arms and replacing them with gun barrels.
In comparison, the Beifeng Company's pioneering land has been completely cut off from the mainland, and can only occasionally receive news from the New Yumen.
By March, the pragmatic Lord Blanken was also dismissed. The new person is said to be a colonel who has extensive "pioneering" experience in the Glory Gate Colonial Sector.
"Find an opportunity to surrender. The war has begun, and a civil affairs official like me who just wants to do something serious has no say. This galaxy will most likely become a battlefield. However, you actually have no chance." Before leaving, Sir Blanken came to visit again and said something to his heart.
He then said to the indignant Agnes: "I have never doubted your courage and ability, madam. I also watched the legendary God of War Festival back then. Hehe, after all, I am still your fan. , I still have your poster at home, but I have been embarrassed to ask you to sign it... By the way, don’t you still have a title?”
Because my nationality is still in the empire! And if it weren't for the boss's persuasion, who would care about the nobility status of this empire.
"You are the teammate of the God's Chosen Champion. You can lead the rangers to fight until the last moment, but what about the others?"
There are currently 5,000 immigrants in the earth's development point in the Lanza galaxy, all of whom were tricked by Beifeng Company from China. There are many old, weak, women and children, as well as many alien races. Under the current situation, they have no way to escape.
If they continue to resist, no one can guarantee whether the empire will go on a killing spree. After all, this is not the mainland of the Milky Way. It is quite remote even in the New World.
Looking at his pregnant wife and the residents of the town, Mr. Wu could only make the most current choice: "I'm sorry for the boss, and I'm sorry for you."
"You have not sorry for me. Choosing to surrender for the sake of your family is a brave move. The boss also said that meaningless death is not necessarily a hero. But, Mr. Wu, I can't be sorry for the boss. You have to do it now. The company gave it to me. Now, I am the general manager of Beifeng Company!" Agnes said without giving up.
"...I always feel that you have been planning this for a long time." The adventurer forced out an ugly smile.
In this way, Agnes automatically became the new talker of the North Wind Development Company, and left Lanza by ship with all those who were unwilling to surrender to the empire. Although there are men, women, old and weak among these people, they are not willing to surrender to the empire at that moment of near despair. It is conceivable that they are not ordinary people.
"Actually, if you also surrender, the empire will treat you as an honored guest." Kent said.
"After all, I am not a smart person who understands current affairs." Agnes said.
Indeed, if she really understood current affairs, she would have stayed in the empire as a "house slave" for the Supreme Being of the Universe. After all, the emperor's servants can also be written as the emperor's close ministers, rounding up to the aristocrats. I heard that the ancient Meiya people living in the empire are living a very good life now. The girl who was disabled at the God of War Festival is now studying at the Wisdom Palace University.
Kent naturally has great respect for Miss Agnes who gave up all this.
"Of course, this is not to blame Mr. Wu. After all, he left the Fujie to me...although this was originally a ship left by the boss to the company. I just hope that what I did before leaving did not cause any trouble to him. Okay." Agnes and the ancient Meiya ranger girl have clear grievances. Wayne and Kent looked at each other again. They all felt that the amount of information in these words was too much.
"So, what did you do? Not just be a pirate, right?" Kent decided to ask questions one by one.
"I killed the Empire's investigating judge and star judge in Lanza. Of course, I didn't alert anyone." Agnes shrugged lightly.
Horatio Wayne was silent for two seconds, then saluted the ancient Meiya Ranger with his hands in hand, his face full of admiration: "Miss Agnes, you are indeed a man!"
The Gumeiya female ranger felt that something was wrong with this guy's compliment, but she couldn't find any evidence, so she added: "Originally, when we were exploring the ruins of the Enlightened One, we could still cooperate happily. However, before I prepared When we were evacuating, he attacked our ship, so of course I had to fight back.”
It seems that there are many dangerous situations omitted in this!
As for whether the Imperial Army would retaliate against Mr. Wu and the others, at least Agnes did not hear any news about this. At this point, she could do nothing but continue to believe in the martial virtues of the empire.
"So, you really took the cruise ship to rob the empire's transport team! If this news reaches the mainland, the surviving crew members will definitely die." Kent said with emotion.
"I hope they can remain useful. I rushed all the survivors to the lifeboats and left them enough water, food, and communicators." Although Agnes, who has a clear grudge, hates the Empire, she still It won't be difficult for ordinary soldiers.
At this time, Wayne used the terminal to open the information about the mediocre spindle-shaped cruise ship. At this time, the engineers from the Victory had already boarded the ship, and they also sent first-hand information.
It was only now that he belatedly determined that the interior of the ship was really that of a cruise ship. It had just been renovated and transformed into a passenger and cargo ship, so that the No. 50 person could be accommodated.
Of course, the interior of the ship has now been modified to be very civilian, but the cabin's lighting fixtures, walls and floors still have a distinct imperial palace style, just like in a fly tavern with silver plates and Ivory chopsticks seem particularly inconsistent.
"It is indeed a lightyear mission-class ship." Wayne sighed: "When I graduated, my grandfather said that he would give me one and sent me the detailed information."
Of course, after all, he asked himself to be a perfect military model. He thought that he was already an active military officer and could not indulge in extravagant and low-level tastes, so he still refused.
Agnes said: "This ship was given to the boss by the imperial royal family, and later the boss gave it to the company."
Wayne always felt that the other party's words were a bit harsh, and his smile suddenly stiffened clearly.
"Probably because we didn't spend any money, we were very radical in our renovation. Of course, we didn't notify others." Agnes added.
"Renovation?" Finally hearing the second question that everyone was concerned about, the two of them suddenly became serious.
Even the most advanced light-year mission-class cruise ship in the universe had no reason to get closer than a million kilometers away from the battleship before it was discovered. What's more, she was clearly planning to charge over and jump in immediately if she found something was wrong. She was obviously very confident in the ship's speed and short-term protection.
This is not something that ordinary "transformation" can justify.
Agnes did not hide anything: "Did you know that after exploring the Lanza galaxy, the boss blocked a snake's transport ship?"
For these two pure soldiers, "snake" is actually a somewhat unfamiliar concept. They hesitated for a moment before they realized that the other party was probably talking about the most powerful terrorist organization behind the scenes in the universe.
"The one who was wiped out by our United Empire in the Abyss Galaxy?" Wayne asked again.
"Oh? Has it been wiped out?" Agnes nodded: "Their ships have many interesting technologies, and the stealth technology of small ships is one of them. We dismantled the ship and installed the parts in On board the Fujie. As you can see, the Fujie has become like this. She can now be invisible, can charge, and has good protection. Of course, the space in the hull is really limited, and she can't install other weapons, nor can she install too much. Plenty of food and water. If you hadn’t come, I would have really prepared to go all the way back to the Milky Way to grab food and water.”
"...I always feel that, Miss Agnes, you seem to be avoiding many important issues and downplaying them!" Kent said.
"You're right, I did omit a lot of important questions. If you want to know, you have to ask the boss." She nodded frankly and sincerely: "But, looking at your current appearance, I'm afraid I can't contact you, right?"
Kent was speechless and couldn't help but laugh.
Wayne said with great interest: "I do know that he led people to explore the Lanza galaxy, but I don't know about the snake thing later. Could it be that it was not reported at all?"
"He did not report it." Kent said expressionlessly.
Wayne sneered a few times, lukewarmly, but that was all.
Then, it is natural to consider the next step.
"You just said that you were planning to rob the imperial cargo ship all the way back to the mainland?" Wayne said.
Agnes nodded: "I know this is not realistic, but I didn't expect to meet you here by chance, so I had to take it one step at a time."
"However, the Lanza Channel to the New World Highway will definitely pass through the Iris Cross, which has been completely blocked. However, with the current performance of the Fujie, at best, it will cause a small-scale fire when passing through the gravity well. The space is shaking. You should be able to sneak through."
Agnes continued to nod: "Yes, but since it is as airtight as you described, you still have to take a lot of risks. There is no need for it now. With you joining us, we can have a long-term After sailing, go directly up the Lanza Channel.”
As she spoke, she opened the terminal: "This should be the star map that the Empire has recently explored. Turning from the LS-13-D galaxy, you can go around to Rattle in the Empire's Glory Colonial Sector without passing through the Iris Cross. There are orbiting farms and power stations there, we can..."
"It's really not necessary." Wayne interrupted the female ranger directly.
Probably because she didn't expect the red-haired colonel to be so rude suddenly, Miss Agnes stopped talking, and was immediately stunned by the brighter and brighter eyes of the other party.
"Nantianmen is the next main attack direction of the empire. But now, the supply lines from Nantianmen to the Gate of Glory are all under our overlook. If we don't do something, Mihir, will you be willing to do so?" Horatio Venn gritted his teeth and said: "If our small fleet, which has completely cut off its return route, can do anything constructive, this is the only one, right?"
Before Kent could speak, Agnes next to her had already slammed the table: "Hey, this red-haired guy is very bloody! Are you planning to burn down the Empire's Gate of Glory sector?"
"If you can, burn all the way from the Gate of Glory to the empire, what's not wrong?" Horatio Wayne laughed boldly, his red hair was like a burning flame: < br>
"This is where Kou can go! I can go too!"
