"Report, Admiral Rockman, commander of the Orion Alliance 3rd Fleet, requested a call."

Virtual induction zone, the adjutant reported.

Jiang Baili smiled slightly at Cai E and said, "Here he comes!"

Just now, the Imperial Operations Department has sent domestic intelligence that the two fleets of the Longshan Empire and the Principality of Lanke are pursuing the Orions.

Zhang Bing intercepted a communication sent to the Principality of Rank. It showed that the Orion Alliance's 3rd Fleet did not rush forward bravely and hit the rocks with eggs, but turned around and ran away, accelerating away in the direction of the Lost Star Territory.

It seems that they are asking for help.

"Haha, Brother Baili, this time you play the good role and I play the bad role, we must let the Orions shed some blood. Their family has a strong foundation and is not as poor as us. They should help their poor brothers."

Cai E laughed and said, firstly, so that he could blackmail the hunters for a large amount of money, and secondly, so that the fight could start immediately.

Jiang Baili: "This is natural. There is never free help between countries. Access Rockman's communication!" [

Soon, Rockman's figure appeared in the virtual induction area. The first thing he saw was Jiang Baili, who seemed to be smiling forever, and Cai E, who looked solemn. However, he did not see the deputy commander Zhang Yueming.

Compared with a few hours ago, Rockman was in high spirits at that time, received the goods perfectly, and did not encounter any danger, as if he had seen the dawn of completing the mission.

He seemed to have seen the president personally ordering these Tianlong battleships to be included in the 3rd Fleet. From then on, the strength of his command has greatly increased, and he can immediately go to the front line to fight.

It's better now. Not to mention completing the mission and getting the ownership of these battleships. Even my life is in danger, let alone the hard-won power and honor, as well as the lives of tens of millions of officers and soldiers under my command.

At this time, General Rockman's hair was "messed", and even his lips were trembling slightly. But time showed no mercy, and he could only bite the bullet and said: "Two marshals, please support your most intimate relationship."

Be an ally."

Jiang Baili smiled and said: "General Rockman. What are you talking about? We have always supported our close allies. Look, if such an advanced battleship as the Tianlong-class battleship is sold to Longshan or Nok, or even Rank

, maybe we can all get a higher price. But we chose the Orion Alliance.”

Rockman was taken aback for a moment, pondered for a moment, and then bent down one leg in the virtual area, half-kneeling there, "Two marshals, please provide rescue. We are being attacked by the Longshan Empire's 9th Fleet and the Lanke Principality.

The 6th Fleet is pursuing us. If your country does not send troops, our entire army will probably be annihilated."

At this time, all Rockman could do was to present his true situation first and kneel down to surrender. He had no time to play charades. He also had no time to use both soft and hard tactics. The military situation was like a fire. He chose to sacrifice his dignity.

"Please call General Rockman quickly. The military situation is so urgent and there is a huge disparity in strength between you and the enemy. You can speed up your escape and hide in our Lost Fortress."

Jiang Baili was shocked and asked him to stand up. The latter was a bachelor, so he stood up.

Cai E said hurriedly: "Baili! The Lost Fortress is related to our country's national defense and security. If it attracts such a powerful enemy, it may cause a catastrophic disaster."

"this……"

Jiang Baili paused slightly and looked embarrassed.

Rockman was shocked when he saw this. No, the Chinese will just stand aside and watch.

Originally, I wanted them to send troops to rescue me, but now, not only did they not think of sending troops to rescue me, but they didn't even want to agree to go and escape themselves.[

Of course, he could understand it. After all, two super fleets were attacking, and he really didn't know if the Lost Fortress could defend it.

In addition, the most important thing is that he has no chance to escape to the Lost Fortress.

If calculated based on the optimal escape speed, his fleet will be overtaken by the enemy in up to five hours. How can he escape to the Lost Fortress?

When Rockman saw this situation, coupled with Jiang Baili's hesitant and hesitant expression, he was even more convinced that Cai E was a cold-blooded person, and it was useless to talk to him about allies.

Yes, he can understand that if it were him, he would not confront two super fleets.

However, he did not dare to conceal the enemy's strength. If the enemy only had one super fleet, then why did his 3rd fleet flee?

Frankly admit that the enemy is two super fleets, so how can others dare to rescue them so easily.

What's more, according to his estimation, if he wants to save himself, the Chinese will probably mobilize in full force.

Taking a deep breath, Rockman's eyes became firmer, "Your Excellencies, two marshals, the current situation of our army is indeed very critical, and it is very likely that the entire army will be annihilated. I don't have much time, there are at most 6

An encounter will occur within an hour.

The only person we can turn to for help is you, and you can provide conditions."

Don’t you Chinese love money? Then let money speak for itself!

He had long known from General Gao Long that this country could not benefit Zao Zao. Talking about friendship with them is not as good as talking about money with them. It is not that they are unkind, but talking about money is often more efficient and effective.

Sure enough, as soon as money was mentioned, it had an immediate effect.

Jiang Baili hesitated slightly and said: "General Rockman, actually, we also want to help, but you should know that the enemies of the two super fleets, unless we use all the forces of the Lost Fortress, it is very likely that

Together with your army, we will be completely annihilated."

Cai E was furious and almost shouted: "Jiang Baili, at this time you are still facing outsiders. Aren't the interests of the empire the highest? Is it a small matter to send out all our troops?"

If His Majesty asks about the private mobilization of the army, how should we reply to His Majesty?

Should we answer that our allies spend a lot of money for military expenditure?

Should we answer that our fleet doesn’t even have enough energy but insist on helping our allies to rescue the siege, and end up ruining the empire’s elite fleet?”

Rockman understood that the Chinese were making conditions euphemistically.

When he feels happy, he is afraid that you won't make any conditions.

"We can pay a very, very considerable military expenditure. At the same time, we have just captured an energy planet from the Lanc people on the front line. We can compensate for all the energy consumption of your country in this battle."

Jiang Baili hesitated for a moment, pretended to look at each other with Cai E, and asked: "If General Rockman can give a high enough price, we can immediately apply to His Majesty to send troops, and if we send out all troops, we will definitely be able to rescue you."

come out."

This time it was Rockman's turn to be stunned. He never expected that the Chinese would be so willing to go down the ladder. Moreover, the Chinese seemed to be very confident, which was not what they should be.

According to the current intelligence, the Lost Fortress should have a large fleet, but it definitely does not reach the size of a super fleet. After they send troops and add their own troops, it is likely to be a defeat. Why do they do this?

Have confidence?

He gritted his teeth and said: "One billion cosmic coins, 50,000 standard units of energy blocks, if your country can send troops, I can make the decision to agree to this condition."

Rockman's heart was bleeding at this time. Although he asked his adjutant to report to the alliance that he would ask for help from the Chinese, and clearly mentioned that he might be paid, the thought of paying so much money still made him bleed.

According to the selling price of the battleships this time, it is enough to buy 100 Tianlong battleships, and the energy can even support 100 Tianlong battleships for 2 medium-sized battleship bombardments. If the marches and battles are included, it is enough for 100 Tianlong battleships.

Battleships are wasted in one battle.

According to his calculations, if the Chinese dispatch about 500 warships, the energy consumption will be almost at this level.

"No, absolutely not. The empire's nearly a thousand battleships are used to take risks, but the price is only a mere 1 billion cosmic coins and 50,000 standard energy blocks. Jiang Baili, if you agree to this condition privately, you will be a sinner of the empire. I

I will state your crime before His Majesty."

Cai E immediately said angrily.

Rockman shook his head secretly in his mind. It seemed that the Chinese emperor was also very suspicious, and his subordinates kept each other in check, otherwise such open conflicts would not have occurred.

Jiang Baili hesitated slightly and said: "However, the Orion Alliance is our ally after all, and General Rockman is so sincere. General Rockman, if the price is such, I will probably not be able to explain it to the country."

Rockman has already scolded Cai E thousands of times in his heart. It is a national curse that is universal in the universe, I am fucking your sister, and you are always the opposite of whatever I say. Now that the military situation is so fierce, I really can't care anymore.

"Then how much does Marshal Cai think is appropriate?"

He wanted to try to see if he could repay the price. He had already seen that Jiang Baili had a higher position, but Cai E seemed to be tougher and had more say in front of the emperor.

Cai E didn't even think about it and said directly: "One billion cosmic coins and 50,000 energy units are not impossible, but we only send 300 battleships.

If you want us to send our enemy fleet, then the price must be increased to 3 billion cosmic coins, plus 200,000 units of standard energy blocks."

"What!!!"

Rockman was shocked when he heard this. He had been fully prepared mentally, but the price still shocked him. To put it in the simplest words, these costs are enough to arm half a super fleet.

Cai E said calmly: "Our conditions are these two. Whichever one you can accept, we will sign a hedging agreement."

"Hedging agreement?"

Rockman was puzzled.

Cai E: "If you choose the first, cheap rescue configuration, then we will trade directly. If it is the second, then we will sign a hedging agreement at Universe Bank.

First, we will dispatch an enemy fleet, and secondly, if we cannot complete the rescue, defeat, repel or scare away these two super fleets, then we will not charge any fees.

Of course, if we do it, you will have to pay 3 billion cosmic coins and 200,000 standard units of battleship-grade energy blocks.

Moreover, this hedging agreement cannot be signed by you, it must be signed personally by the president of your country through the Universe Bank in the name of the Orion Alliance.

By the way, if you choose the hedging agreement, we can prepare all the procedures within an hour, and it only takes two or three hours for our enemy fleet to appear in front of you."

Rockman is already two years old.

This damn Cai E, who looked like an iron rooster just now, roared angrily at one moment and was sarcastic at another, now it's better. First the lion opened his mouth, and then he proposed a hedging agreement that seemed very unfavorable to them.

How can the Chinese defeat, repel or even scare away these two super fleets? Can they do it?

"Please give me a moment, I will report to the alliance urgently."

"Admiral, please hurry up, your fleet is about to bear the shameful artillery fire of Longshan and Lanke."

With such an urgent military situation, Rockman naturally did not dare to delay. He cut off the line before he could even say a polite word. Then he immediately contacted the Alliance Military Department and spoke with the President and the Commander-in-Chief of the Military Department.

What he didn't expect was that the President and the Commander-in-Chief decided after only 10 minutes of discussion.

"Agree to their conditions, sign a hedging agreement, and sign it as soon as possible. However, the conditions must be changed appropriately. We will increase the payment of cosmic coins to 4 billion. However, if they cannot do it, they will compensate 4 billion cosmic coins.
