When the free heart does not have enough strength, they can only choose to avoid the enemy, but when they have enough combat power, they have to show some fangs appropriately, so as to be able to scare off some enemies who are not strong and always turn around in front of him like flies.

To be honest, this regular-class fleet in front of him, Renault is confident enough to not eat them all! But he was unwilling to fight with them, so he explained the matter thoroughly, hoping that these people would be able to retreat from the difficulties.

Hearing Renault mercilessly admit that he was intimidating Harrison, the sturdy middle-aged man fell silent again.

After a long time, he spoke again: "Young man, don't be too arrogant, this will not do you any good!" ”

"If it is other cases, I am still happy to chat with you politely, but now that I have more things at hand, I don't want to talk to you more! I have to tell you in the most direct way. General Harrison, you know I don't want to be too stiff with you, so I talked to you so much! If I didn't care about your feelings, I could have left all of you behind, so that we could expand our fleet. You tell me? We have twice the firepower of a regular fleet, and you treat us like rats, what would you think if you were us? Renault shrugged, "You see, our demands are not high at all, and we just want you to treat us like ordinary interstellar pirates." ”

Harrison frowned, "Interstellar pirates are unprotected, and we have never been polite to them......"

"At least they still have a certain living space in the Federation, don't they?" Renault said again.

"It's incredible, and if I'm not mistaken, you're still intimidating me. Now they are begging me for living space. ”

"In fact, I intimidated you just because I wanted you to treat us normally and give us a certain amount of living space." Renault said again.

Harrison snorted, "If only you told me that earlier, why did you break my starship." ”

"You also know that war inevitably hurts, and if you go back unscathed, they won't believe you've been here."

"But why are you attacking me, not me?" Harrison is clearly a little unconvinced by this opponent who can't be beaten, and is holding back his strength to prepare to amplify his moves.

"General Harrison, don't be kidding, our starships are all in tatters, how can you fight, won't they all fall apart as soon as you fight? If you want, I can send you a few images of the starships being shelled, but I really can't let you attack! And the proposal I gave you earlier suggests that you think about it, so that it is good that both parties do not hurt and get along. Renault added.

"Okay! You wait for me for a while, I'll have to think about it. After Harrison viciously dropped this sentence, he blocked the communication between Renault and Nick, and instead dialed the communication of the Rama Theater headquarters, and directly scolded: "How did you collect information!" These people are not the firepower of one or twenty starships at all, they not only have more advanced detectors than us, but they also have the firepower of two conventional fleets, I am not their opponent at all, if you want to deal with them, you must send me two more conventional fleets to support, otherwise I will go back! I will not send my soldiers to fight a war that is uncertain, and as their commander, I must be responsible for the lives of every soldier. ”

After hearing Harrison's words, the other party was stunned for a while before saying, "That's it! Are these people already so powerful? It seems that Chris's message has a serious error! But it doesn't matter, General Harrison, I was about to tell you something, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative to contact me......"

Harrison didn't wait for him to finish speaking, then interrupted him and yelled, "Leave the other things aside, you give me a letter now, can you send other fleets to support me, if not, I will go back with my fleet now!" ”

"General Harrison, in fact, even if we support you, it won't do much, the headquarters has canceled the plan to attack Rafadiman." The operator on the other side said again.

"Why?" Harrison asked, puzzled.

"Because a fleet has just attacked Constantine, and then pulled out some of it to go to Rafadiman, if you don't come back, there is a good chance that you will collide with them."

"Who is it? How bold is it to dare to openly provoke us? Constantine has a certain strategic role in the Rama theater of operations, and their occupation of Rama is equivalent to a war with us, aren't these people brains burned out? Harrison said with some confusion.

"I don't know who attacked Rama exactly, because I don't have enough authority, General Harrison, you better come back quickly!"

"Okay, I got it."

Harrison's brows furrowed again, they were going to take care of this arrogant young man through the Rama war zone's request for help, but they didn't expect such a change to happen, and they could only leave in disgrace for a while.

And at this time, Renault's proposal to him became a good choice.

The next moment, Harrison resumed the call with Renault and said, "Okay young man, I've thought about it, and I'm willing to treat you as an interstellar pirate." But then, you have to go according to the normal rules. ”

"Wait a minute, General Harrison! Aren't interstellar pirates not protected by federal law? Why are there 'normal rules'? Renault asked.

"There are rules everywhere that are explicit, and rules that are hidden, just like the rules of a pirate bar, which are not written, but everyone knows them." Harrison snorted, "If you want me to bless you, you have to follow my rules." ”

"Alright, then ask General Harrison to tell us about your rules." Renault said helplessly.

"I've received orders to expel you, so you'll have to leave a few starships behind for us to fire a few shots so we have evidence of an attack. After you escape, it's not up to us to come back, and of course you'll have to give me a certain amount of federal currency every once in a while. ”

"Oh my God, I always thought you were an upright general, but I didn't expect you to ask me for a bribe, it's just incredible." Renault said with an exaggerated expression.

"On the front lines of humanity, where we have to fight bugs every moment, and our soldiers are dying every second, and I just do this to make life easier for their families. In an environment where everyone is corrupt, if you don't take bribes, you're leaving the organization, and you know what it means to be out of the organization in the military? ”

"Well, you convinced me! General Harrison. I can promise you these conditions, but beyond that, what can you do for me? Renault asked about the most important thing.

"I can provide you with the greatest convenience without violating the rules and morality! Of course, all this is conditional on you not being a real enemy of the Federation fleet, and if one day, I find that you are on the opposite side of us, then our cooperation will be terminated immediately, and I will become your first enemy! Harrison said.

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation!" Renault laughed.

Harrison laughed, "It's a pleasure to work with. ”

The Free Fleet then let the Todd fleet sail to the planet Rafadiman, and as soon as the two fleets approached, they launched a ferocious attack, and after two rounds, the Free Heart's fleet was defeated.

After defeating the enemy, Todd's fleet slowly departed, and soon disappeared into the starry sky with a leap belt.

The reality is that although Renault is at odds with the federal government, he can privately reach a certain agreement with these federal fleets for mutual benefit.

In fact, the situation of the Freedom Fleet and the interstellar pirates that have not been able to be eliminated everywhere is similar, and the politicians of the federal government and the soldiers of the federal fleet can never be the same class.

Just as Marshall was a good general, he could only be a failed politician.

And just after Renault and the others had just solved the problem of the federal fleet in the Rama theater of operations, another fleet appeared in the maximum range of the Lafadiman probe.

What an eventful time!
