If the eight escort cruisers and three very large immigration ships were in the center of the galaxy, they would be considered an independent nomadic "tribe".
However, such a group should not appear in the hinterland of the empire anyway.
Of course, this "nomadic tribe" of predators did not discover the Buran hiding in the icy asteroid belt. They passed through the entire galaxy as if there was no one around, and then jumped away in the other direction.
That is clearly the direction of the "Gate of Glory".
It wasn't until all the predator fleets disappeared into the distance that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They all felt lucky to have escaped, but then they realized that this was not the time to feel lucky.
"Why would a raider fleet enter this system and go to the Gate of Glory? Captain, what do you think?" the commander asked the captain.
"Your Excellency, I think there must be something fishy about this matter. So..."
"So we can only go and have a look, right?"
Well, what I want to say is to wait a little longer until the reinforcements from His Royal Highness King Suliuka arrive! You are a person who will fight to the end if you want, and be as brave as possible. Can you not be so divided! We are
It is difficult to cooperate with such a conscientious craftsman!
However, before the captain could complain, Colonel Soback said harshly: "Find out the situation here to the Grand Marshal's Mansion in Tianyu and the headquarters of Luyuan Star... and then, let's follow them!"
This was not because Colonel Soback suddenly became brave, but that he suddenly realized that since there were residential ships in the opponent's fleet, the speed and maneuverability would be greatly reduced when sailing at sub-light speed, and it would be impossible to outrun them.
This is a Clear Sky class ship. In this case, why not follow it and take a look? This is safer than going to the lion's den to explore the way, and it is also reasonable and legal.
Since the other party was a giant immigration ship group, the space vibration left during the jump was quite intense. The Snowstorm, which was equipped with special detection equipment, quickly calculated which gravity well the other party was using, and continued to search.
Under Baik's command, he followed decisively.
So, of course he didn't know that just when he left the Telescope 77 galaxy, more raider fleets jumped over again from the direction of Lion's Den Fortress. The first ones to come over were still three immigrant ships and seven
A combination of escort ships. But what appeared next were two larger production ships and a Dreadnought-class "Fire Spitfire".
This is exactly like a great migration of the whole people. It is roughly equivalent to the nomadic people on the grassland who, after breaking through the Great Wall, moved toward the central hinterland with their tents, livestock, pots, pans, wives and children.
In fact, in addition to the two to three thousand battleships of various types, the predator fleet currently gathered in the Lion's Den Fortress, there are also more than thirty various giant immigration ships and production ships. With the life of the predators,
Judging from the space of the world, in addition to soldiers, there are definitely tens of millions of civilians and slave laborers. With the behavior of nomadic people, men, women, and children like predators, who can go into battle to kill and shoot people as long as they can carry weapons, it is really difficult under extreme conditions.
, it is completely possible to mobilize an army of nearly ten million.
Of course, it is still far from this level.
The new Great Khan of the Predators and the young Queen of the Elor people, Tomitelli Masegetai, feels that it is a waste to let valuable technicians and children with unlimited futures carry weapons to the front line.
.
As for the elderly who have already declined, shouldn’t they be allowed to go to the battlefield without being given housing allowance and food? Isn’t this wasteful?
"Listen, Mankara, even if our warship is sunk, we must protect the safety of the immigration ship and work ship." She said to her most capable subordinate: "After leaving the lion's den, we will follow the original plan.
Plan the march. Don't be stingy with the medicine you need. If everything goes well, I will meet you on the other side within a month."
Mankara was a full head taller than the female Khan, but he was as humble as a loyal dog in front of the latter. He gently tapped the armor on his chest with his hand, and was about to leave when he said: "If...
…What should I do if you haven’t arrived at the appointed time?”
"Then return to the Galactic Center as originally planned." Khan said with a smile: "At that time, King Aero will belong to my nephew Jeste, and you will be the regent until he comes of age."
"I can't be a nanny." Jeste sighed: "So, please be sure to arrive within the agreed time."
The female Khan glanced at the other party, but smiled and said: "I will try my best. However, you have to know that if you do not arrive at the specified time, I will not wait for you."
"It should be like this. We are gambling, so we should be mentally prepared to lose everything." General Mankara did not express any doubts, and walked away with a determined expression.
This well-known general among the Eero people will serve as the commander of a predator fleet, leading more than four million soldiers and civilians, divided into six immigration ships, three work ships and more than fifty large and small warships.
leave.
This is the third fleet of predators heading towards the Gate of Glory.
Of course, not everyone will leave.
You must know that the fleet currently gathered in the Lion's Den Galaxy is not just the Ero people's headquarters group directly under the Khan, but also includes the considerable fleets of the Myshandar Giant and the Beato Bearded Man.
These two are also very famous warrior races. Their countries were destroyed by humans during the Galactic Age of Discovery that lasted for thousands of years. Some of them surrendered and started a promising career selling fists for a living, while others were wild and wild.
In the early days of the Age of Discovery, when the territories and spheres of influence of the galactic nations were not yet clear, the mercenary fleets of the Myshandars and the Beatos were in the midst of the chaos of the universe.
The trend-setting person.
To put it bluntly, these two races should be born to feed on nomadic mercenaries.
In the years of war, the Myshandar and Beato people, who fought bravely but acted cruelly, became known as "Trolls" and "Bearded Demons". You can imagine their reputations.
Therefore, when the situation gradually calmed down, the mercenary fleet, which had become increasingly warlord-like, was naturally unable to take the stage. The two major human nations that had been burned by the river turned around and immediately expelled them to the center of the galaxy to play a game of two.
When the Elor empire was destroyed, a large number of Elor elites also fled. The two became a tripartite. After a period of time, they both found that they could not do anything to each other, so they simply changed their minds. Since everyone
They are all mortal enemies of mankind, so why do they unite?
As a result, an alliance was established that was widely distributed among all the predator groups in the center of the galaxy. As for the leader of the alliance, they would elect the Great Khan from among the tribal leaders of the predators as the leader of all predators.
Of course, we also know that the Galactic Center occupied by the Predator Tribe can be said to be a true harbor of filth and evil, attracting people of all races. There are even some human commanders among its elite battle groups, but the absolute main force is
These are still the first three major races, and the Great Khan will only emerge from among them.
"We are called outlaws, barbarians and the cancer of civilization, but we are obviously very democratic! It is not the stupid politics of the Alliance that plays electoral games, nor is it a hereditary bloodline like the Empire. It is clear
This is true democracy based on ability!”
When it comes to this, the predators are actually very proud.
Of course, from the above development, we can realize that the Great Khan of the Pillagers is not an authoritative leader in the true sense, but is just a relatively loose leader. The Great Khan has great influence on the leaders of the tribes or military leaders under his command.
How much say he can have depends entirely on his personal strength.
The reason why the current new Great Khan, Queen Masegetai of Erro, came to power was not because she was the best at fighting, but because she had food in her hands. Although the other warlord leaders did not understand at all why there were so many people in the Silver Center.
If you have food, you will have money, and you can use every opportunity to win over and leverage your strength.
But we also know that generally speaking, the prestige of leaders who use this method to rise to the top is very limited.
Although Masagetai Khan is neither bald nor has she bought a diploma from a pheasant school, has not had the opportunity to lose money in the stock market, and has never been a cross-dressing boss, the Sister of the Holy Spear, but if she can get information from another parallel universe, what can she do?
Fortunately, I will have a feeling of sympathy for that person.
Moreover, according to the aesthetics of the Erro people, and even humans, the female Khan can be regarded as a beauty with quite an alien style, and it seems that she is even more difficult to be hard. No, she is the same as the warlords of the other two races.
When the boss held meetings, his attitude was quite upright.
"I will set off within 20 hours of standard time. Everything in Lion's Den Fortress and Far Home Planet is left to you two. If you have any other requests, you can tell me now." The female Khan said.
The holographic projections of the two warlord leaders looked at each other. The Myshandar troll general, who was over three meters tall, squeezed out a tentative smile on his truly ferocious face that could scare a group of children to tears. Be careful.
Said: "Two automatic food processing plants have been discovered on Far Country Star. As long as carbohydrates and proteins can be extracted, they can be compressed into food. I was wondering if this thing can be used on the ship. Can we move it away?"
The female Khan smiled and nodded. Then, the two Khans, who looked like demon kings at first glance, showed ecstatic expressions, as if the refugees who had not had a full meal for several months finally picked up a suitcase.
Like a full granary.
In fact, it was not a food processing factory, but a feed processing factory. The compressed food was not even eaten by pets, but was used by local residents in distant villages to feed sandworms.
There are deserts, there are sandworms, and there are spices. This is common sense in the universe. And as long as it is a living thing, it can be tamed. It is hard to say about other countries, but the empire that can even raise dragons can naturally raise native Arrakis sands.
Insect.
Of course, the dozen or so large sandworms currently on Far Home Planet are now being slaughtered by other "bugs" to eat their flesh and expand their gene pool, so this is not important.
All in all, even the food for sandworms is still scarce food for the predators.
"The things on the Lion's Den Fortress are more valuable. Once they are taken down, we can dismantle as many as we can."
The troll and the long-bearded demon exchanged glances again, and the latter said: "I will try my best to restore the fortress. Only such jewelry is worthy of your crown. It would be a pity to completely destroy it."
Well, no matter which race you belong to, if you really become a prominent figure, you must have high emotional intelligence. The female Khan immediately became happy: "Thank you for your kindness... but you can't force anything."
She paused, then showed a little sadness, and sighed: "You two are not willing to go with me after all!"
"Your strategy is a stroke of genius, but it is indeed a gamble!" The long-bearded demon warlord twitched the barb-like tentacles on his face and said helplessly.
"We are willing to fight for you, but always leave someone to guard the home." The troll also said.
"Indeed, I am too radical." The female Khan did not continue to persuade, but looked like she was accepting advice humbly: "Then, I will leave the defense of the Silver Center to you."
When the communication was about to be cut off, she added: "Also, don't blame me for being verbose. Again, the Lion's Den Fortress can be defended. If you really can't defend it, return to the Galactic Center with the loot. Our operation
It is successful.”
"I understand," the Troll General said.
"You are mature and prudent and care for the soldiers. How can you say that you are verbose?" said the long-bearded demon general.
As a result, the military meeting ended. The conclusion reached was that all the Elorian fleets would leave, leaving this frontier system that the empire had built with a lot of money to the Myshandar trolls and the long-bearded monsters.
Of course, just like three women often have four groups, as soon as the military discussion here ended, the troll on the Far Country planet connected with the long-bearded demon on the battleship again.
"A verbose woman, but she still knows the current affairs." said the troll.
"She is a smart person. This big hunt is also in line with the times and people's hearts." The long-bearded demon said: "It's a pity that the Elo people are all lunatics at heart and can only do that kind of work."
"If she succeeds, she will be a great person." The troll said angrily.
"If you are envious, you can risk your life to follow her! There are still many tribes among you Maishan masters who follow her on adventures." The long-bearded demon said.
"At my age, what risks should I take? No matter how bad the environment in the center of the galaxy is, it is still our doghouse! And on the other side, if she can really succeed, then she is really not a big khan, but can think
The human Chenxi family started the dynasty and proclaimed themselves emperor like that! At my age, I can bend my knees."
"Hahaha, if our ancestors could bend their knees, they wouldn't be reduced to chewing sand in the center of the Milky Way." The long-bearded man said, "However, if we can defend this Lion's Den Fortress, we will take the initiative.
Right. From now on, the empire’s territory will be accessible to you as you please, and you can leave as you please?”
The troll general and the long-bearded man laughed together. At this moment, the two marauder warlord leaders showed joyful and imaginative expressions, as if they had picked up all the free platinum VIP annual passes in the bathing city.
