Chapter 1169: Peacemaker
- In the military base commander's office, Jiang Ping was sitting on the commander's leather chair, and next to him stood Captain Patrick of the Grimm, who was respectfully answering the other party's questions.
Although he was already determined to occupy this place, Jiang Ping was still worried about the reaction of the Green people, so he had to take precautions and take precautions.
From Patrick's mouth, he learned that Jialan Star here belongs to the Far North Star Region of the Green Empire, and the commander-in-chief of the Star District is an old general named Ferdy Pomppie, who is a tough hawk and belongs to the constitutionalist in terms of political position.
Such a hard-line hawk presiding over this Far North Star Region is not a good thing for the Great Migration Force.
"Captain, in your opinion, how will your Admiral Ferdy Pompi react when he learns that your Jialan Star Base has been occupied by us?"
Glancing at the Captain Grimm standing next to him, Jiang Ping asked slowly.
Patrick was cautious and said, "Commander Huijiang, I don't dare to say anything about this. ”
Jiang Ping waved his hand and said, "Just say it, there is nothing to scruple about, it doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, it's a good cooperative relationship between us, isn't it." ”
Patrick hesitated for a moment, and then said: "To tell you the truth, Commander Jiang, although the Jialan Star Base is only a small stronghold, because it is located at the forefront of the Far North Star Sector, it is the forward base for the Star Region to continue to expand northward, so General Ferdy Pompi has always attached great importance to this place, and the current Jialan Star Base was built with his strong support, and he has always been a hardliner in the army, and he has made great achievements." The loss of the Jialan Star Base was a stain on him. It was unacceptable to him, so ......"
Jiang Ping said: "So he will definitely send troops over." Take back the Jialan Star Base, is that so? ”
Patrick lowered his head and whispered, "That's right." ”
Jiang Ping snorted heavily and said, "If he dares to come, then we will give him a little bit of a good look, so that he can know what regret is." ”
Patrick's body trembled, but he didn't have anything to say.
Jiang Ping glanced at him and said, "I told you a long time ago, our Galactic Empire is a peace-loving nation. We are not here to be enemies of other civilizations, I think that different civilizations can completely seek common ground while reserving differences, and can coexist peacefully. If a civilization bullies us, we will never let it go! ”
"For example, this battle between us and your civilization was caused entirely by that Helms. If it weren't for that Helms provocation in the first place, this conflict would not have happened, and we occupy this place. It's just a righteous counterattack to teach that Helms a lesson. ”
Patrick also said angrily: "What Commander Jiang said is true. This conflict was entirely provoked by Helms's dog mongrel. He will take full responsibility for the destruction of the peaceful and friendly relations between my Grimm Empire and your Galactic Empire! ”
Jiang Ping certainly hated that Helms so much, until now, this man's fleet is still scattered around Jialan Star, watching the movements of the Great Migration Force, as if it is a bone gangrene, lingering, making him grit his teeth and hate, and helpless.
And Patrick is even more, originally he and Helms, the base commander, were opponents, and it was no secret that they fought openly and secretly, especially in this conflict, Helms forced him to stay at the base, causing him to become a prisoner of the Milky Way, and this feud was even deeper.
The hatred of Helms can be regarded as the "common language" of the two.
Jiang Ping continued: "Captain, to tell you the truth, we are here this time, just to settle down temporarily, to rest, and not to stay for long, at most ten or eight years, we will embark on a long interstellar voyage again, after all, we still have to go home, don't we?" ”
This is purely nonsense, but in order to appease his heart, Jiang Ping had to say so. This is also his plan to delay the army, now the Great Migration Force wants to gain a firm foothold here, the most important thing is time, if there can be a few years of precious time for peaceful development, and further grasp and digest the scientific and technological civilization left by the Unicorn People, then the strength of the Great Migration Force will be greatly improved, and then there will be enough self-protection power, and there will be nothing to fear.
Patrick's heart moved when he heard this, and he was still half-convinced of the other party's words, but he was still willing to believe the other party's words, thought for a while, and said: "If Commander Jiang trusts me, I am willing to be this peace messenger, go back and explain the situation here in detail to General Ferdy Pompi, and convey your peaceful and friendly goodwill to General Ferdy Pompi, so that General Philip Pompi will not misunderstand you, and can avoid a sword and soldier meeting, and the two sides can maintain peaceful coexistence, friendly and cooperative relations." ”
After saying that, his eyes sneaked to the other side to check the other party's reaction.
Jiang Ping listened, but he was silent, and there was no reaction for a while.
It was not without thought that he asked this Patrick to be this "peacemaker" messenger, and conveyed to Nafer Pompi the desire of the two civilizations to live together in peace, friendship and peace.
However, he is still a little uneasy about this Patrick, don't look at the other party staying here now, looking very "cooperative", but if he is let go, who knows if he will immediately turn his face and deny people, and immediately after returning to his "deeds" in Jialanxing during this period of time, in order to show his "heroism and fearlessness", not to mention conveying the "peace and friendship" of the Great Migration Force, maybe he will also encourage Na Ferdy Pompi to send troops to encircle and suppress.
So before he was clearly sure that this Patrick would obediently cooperate, he didn't want to let the other party go so easily.
In addition, he also felt that it was not time to send a message of "peace and friendship" to the Grimm, and he did not intend to do so until Ferdy Pompi had done nothing.
Now the two sides are actually in a delicate state of being afraid of wolves, and both sides have scruples, so now the comparison is who can calm down and not mess up.
He even estimated that Ferdy Pompi was standing still and did not take any action, but he was afraid that he was waiting for the reaction of his side, and if he sent a "peace and friendship" envoy at this time, it would be counterproductive, and it would be regarded as an act of weakness, and perhaps as soon as the "peace and friendship" envoy sent out arrived, the other party's encirclement and suppression army would pounce.
From some of the descriptions in Patrick's mouth, Jiang Ping had already sensed that this Ferdy Pompi was a very cunning and difficult guy, and he was not so easy to deal with. So now it's better for you not to act rashly, and it's better to wait and see what happens.
Seeing that he was silent and did not respond to his proposal here, Patrick on the side did not understand what the other party meant for a while, and he was a little apprehensive in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask more.
"Captain, do you think that after you go back, you will be able to move your General Ferdy Pompi, believe your words, and understand the intention of peace and friendship in my Galactic Empire?" After a while, Jiang Ping asked again.
Patrick hurriedly said: "Commander Jiang, rest assured, General Ferdy Pompi is a clear-headed, wise commander, after I conveyed the peace, friendship and goodwill of the Galactic Empire, I believe that the general will definitely make the right choice." ”
After a pause, he added: "In addition, in fact, in the star sector, it is not General Ferdy Pompie who has the final say, the deputy commander-in-chief of the star district, Lord Frederica, is very at odds with General Phidy Pomppie, Lord Frederica is a staunch royalist, and I am very friendly with one of Lord Frederica's cronies and guards......"
Speaking of this, he threw a meaningful glance at the other party, which probably meant that he, Patrick, could communicate with the Earl through the close guards of the Count Frederica, and then he could move the Count to make some stumbling blocks for General Ferdy Pompi.
When Jiang Ping heard this, his heart moved, but he unexpectedly obtained some valuable information, this Grimm Empire is far from being monolithic, but full of contradictions, the internal struggle between the royalists and the constitutionalists seems to be very powerful, even in this Far North Star Region, it is also reflected.
If what Patrick said is true, then the battle between the constitutionalists and royalists within the Green Empire can be fully utilized, which is always a good thing for the Great Migration Force, and the more fierce the infighting on the other side, the less bother they have to ask about the Great Migration Force.
"In addition, in fact, the Far North Star Region of the empire is not so peaceful and uneventful......"
At that moment, Patrick uttered another piece of information that seemed to be very valuable.
When Jiang Ping heard this, he asked, "Oh, why do you say that, what are the turbulent factors in your Far North Star Region?" ”
Patrick said: "Don't hide it from Commander Jiang, this Far North Star Region is the area where piracy is most rampant in the Empire......
"Pirates?"
Jiang Ping listened, and there was not much surprise, in this vast interstellar space, the control of civilization is always limited, and it is normal for some lawbreakers to appear, and it is normal for pirates to wander around, just in the galaxy, the plague of pirates has never been cut off.
However, no matter how chaotic the pirates are, they are only pirates after all, just some rabble who gather crowds to make trouble, and can only survive in the cracks of the civilized army, living a precarious life of rogues, every day there are pirate gangs exterminated by the civilized army, and new pirates are born, which is probably a problem for any civilization.
But in any case, pirates are generally only petty and do not really threaten the security and order of civilization.
As if seeing the other party's disapproving thoughts, Patrick showed a little bit of weirdness and said, "Commander Jiang, most of these pirates operating in the Far North Star Region of the Empire are not simple...... (to be continued......
