Chapter 171: Battle of Malastare Fjord (4)
169. Battle of Malastare Fjord (4)
“Your Excellency Yularen, our planet has We have been besieged by the mercenaries of the Enterprise Alliance for three days. Originally, our planet's agricultural products mainly relied on imports. These three days of siege have almost caused the collapse of our planet's economy!" In the holographic projection, the representative of the planet Marastal, Councilor Ainle-Tim said worriedly.
"Please rest assured, Councilor Tim. The purpose of our trip is to relieve the siege of the Malastar planet. We hope that both of you can finally return to the negotiating table." Woolf - Yularen said calmly.
"I wish you good luck in martial arts, Lord Yularen. You are our only hope (Youaremyonlyhope)..." Senator Tim sighed and closed the communication.
"The whole army sets off! Start jumping at the same time in 30 seconds, the target is the planet Malastar!" Captain Wolf-Yularen gave the order, and the fleet of 200 spaceships set off immediately, heading towards this The core of the conflict flew directly past.
……
Malastal Fjord, Enterprise Alliance fleet blockade.
There are already a large number of wreckage of spacecraft floating around here, and the twisted corpses of the operators who were thrown out can be seen everywhere.
The three-day blockade almost plunged the planet Malastar into despair. During this period, they tried every means to allow the spacecraft to sneak past the blockade and bring much-needed supplies to the planet.
In fact, this is also a major hidden danger of the Galactic Republic, because most of the middle-ring and outer-ring planets in the Galactic Republic have not actually entered the interstellar age, and many are even still in medieval feudal society. Therefore, these planets are joining the Milky Way. After the Republic, after all, he was a bit out of place.
However, driven by the major business giants of the Galactic Republic, these backward planets often become commodity dumping grounds and cheap labor export places for the business giants. A large number of commodities that exceed the level of these civilizations are swept over the sky. Most of the planets, from the rulers to the people, will fall into the trap and indulge in the extremely advanced luxury goods provided by the business giants.
Not enough money? Borrow money! No money to pay back? Selling natural resources and manpower, there is always something to sell. Therefore, under the guidance of the ulterior motives of the business giants, these planets will basically have a population explosion, and then they will all rely on imported goods to survive.
After all, only when there are more people can there be consumption and labor force. As for the quality of life of these people, no one cares at all.
The result is that these planets have basically become part of the economic system of these business giants, and they almost have no ability to be self-sufficient. As for strategic reserves, there is no such concept in this peaceful Galactic Republic!
Therefore, the planet Rodia previously suffered from famine due to reduced food production, and the planet Marastal was already dying after only three days of blockade - such planets are extremely dependent on blood transfusions from the Galactic Republic. Once the transfusions are lost, If the blood vessels are cut off, the original shape will be revealed immediately.
The population that has expanded due to the continuous investment of business giants will immediately become a burden to them, because these planets originally did not have the ability to maintain this amount of population.
Then, business giants can directly cut the backbone of a planet and make them submit obediently through trade sanctions or even force blockade.
Tang Xiao looked out the window boredly at the ever-changing scenery. Under the influence of the magnetic field nebula around the Marastal Fjord, there were streaks of bizarre and colorful haze around him, which looked like Like colorful ribbons flying in the universe.
A faint sense of crisis touched Tang Xiao's heartstrings across the galaxy. He turned around and stared at a direction in the void, with a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.
He patted Ni Yongxiao, who was also looking at the scenery outside the window, and said: "Axiao, do you know? Before the Republic fleet sets off, the representative of Malastar Planet will definitely say this to him - Youaremyonlyhope!"< br>
“Does this sentence have any special meaning?” Ni Yongxiao asked. "The weak pray to the strong, leaving their future and destiny to others." Tang Xiao said, "Because of the existence of the Force, I really believe that there is a destiny in this universe. And because of this, People here are often more willing to place their hope on some higher-level power. This is their thinking mode. "
"In this way, you who master the Force represent that. People with higher levels of power?" Ni Yongxiao asked.
“I can only touch this kind of power slightly. Moreover, I have some vague guesses about this kind of power, but I need further confirmation. Forget it, before that, there is no use thinking too much. . You go and inform Igor Zavalov, prepare for battle, the enemy is coming.”
Ni Yongxiao nodded, walked to the bridge command center, and informed Igor of the news.
Igor immediately issued an order, and all warships entered the highest combat preparation, ready for combat at all times. At the same time, he informed the commander-in-chief, Admiral Trench, of the news.
"Are the enemies coming? Tsk tsk tsk tsk... As I expected, the Republic will definitely take action, tsk tsk tsk tsk... However, I am also waiting for their arrival." Trench slowly said He slowly stroked the chelicerae at the corner of his mouth and narrowed his six scarlet eyes slightly.
Then he waved the pointer in his hand suddenly and ordered: "The fourth group fleet, move forward immediately, bearing coordinates 55.73 southeast, move forward at full speed!"
Igor nodded and turned around. Said to the navigator: "All spaceships are moving forward in formation, bearing coordinates 55.73 southeast, moving forward at full speed!"
Trench's eyes flashed fiercely, "Let us give the Republic fleet a surprise! Count down for 30 seconds, and then activate the No. 2 blocker!!"
......
On the hyperspace channel The Republic fleet among them had no idea that they were entering a carefully laid trap.
Captain Wolf-Yularen straightened his military cap and stood on the still blank holographic map. Combat intelligence has been sent, and the Enterprise Alliance's blockade fleet has placed a blocker at coordinates 57.88 in the Marastal Fjord, and deployed the fleet behind the blocker.
"Adjust the hyperspace jump distance and set the coordinates of the escape jump location to 58.04! Remember, distance is our key to victory!" Wolf-Yularen ordered.
"Yes!" The navigator immediately started operating.
At this moment, Admiral Trench also issued an order, "Activate the No. 2 blocker! Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Didi, dit, dit! ! ! A piercing siren sounded on the bridge of the Republic fleet, and the navigator screamed loudly, "Hyperspace navigation has been interfered with! We are about to leave hyperspace!!"
