Chapter 707
"*!" Hao Sen raised his middle finger and cursed, his eyes staring into two light bulbs: "Tang Fang, you should say something."
Yuffie and the others also looked expectantly.
The "Khanos" navy thought that they only had one ship, so they dared to be so arrogant, but they didn't know that the figure in front of the big screen could conjure a power that could not be matched by several fleets at any time and anywhere, making anyone who underestimated him drink a pot.
"Yuffie, tell them that if I am late for the meeting with His Highness the Regent, they have an unshirkable responsibility."
Tang Fang said in a good voice, although there was a threat in his tone, he couldn't hear any smell of gunpowder.
Bai Hao rubbed his temples, shook his head, Claire also sighed, Kyrenia showed a wry smile, her thin eyebrows raised higher and higher, Roy smiled foolishly, Nehemiah finally stopped giving him his beloved Chlorophytum watering...
Only Bafir and Elena who just came to the bridge couldn't figure out what those rich expressions meant.
Of course they didn't understand, because they didn't know him.
In this case, if Captain Tang chooses to complain, it means that he is in a good mood; It means that he is already feeling impatient; if irrelevant people are brought into the topic again, it means that he is already impatient to the extreme and is ready to do something.
Howson and Churchill were very excited, like two macaques who had been bloodied.
The "Angel" has two large-caliber positron cannons, unlike the "Star Fury" of the Morning Star, which happens to be one for each person.
When Yuffie relayed Tang Fang's words to the customs control tower, more and more civilian ships were watching from afar.
Although many people don't know its origin, they can still see its extraordinaryness from the star-like energy shield. Of course, some people naively thought that it must be someone stupid, otherwise, how could they be intercepted by the customs and escorted by the patrol fleet.
"Running to 'Khanos' to play cool, I really don't know what this person thinks. This is the capital of the king, and even the big lords dare not publicize it, let alone a commoner... No matter what the origin of the ship is, Mr. Captain, isn't he afraid of being hacked? You don't even understand the truth about not revealing your wealth, you're such an idiot."
Some people are very honest, seeing that the "Seat Angel" has chosen to use the pass. Rather than the fast track exclusive to the privileged class, they think that they are either tourists from foreign countries or stupid upstarts with no brains.
"I guess this may be a warship model specially made by a large film and television company,
Used to shoot a blockbuster. "
"No, no. No, you are all mistaken. Have you forgotten the three-year personal warship expo? It is clearly a new type of ship, and it must be a concept product of a large foreign military enterprise. The reason for choosing this form Appearing on the stage, but for the purpose of creating momentum! Do you understand 'building momentum'? Don't you understand? Hype?"
As a commoner, I am naturally more used to looking at and thinking about problems from the perspective of a commoner. They pay more attention to the entertainment of external events, thereby ignoring deeper things.
Many people will never know, some seemingly ordinary little things. In fact, they are all extensions of political struggles, but the media is used to packaging them in exquisite or not exquisite packaging to guide public opinion, or to set the tone for events, or to pave the way for follow-up actions, or to divert attention. More likely to be fooling.
In fact, knowing the truth does not mean much to the people at the bottom. They are powerless against any kind of oppression or deceit, except being keyboard warriors. Then he was scolded as a troll. For them, the truth is never important, the entertainment, excitement, and fun of the event should be the focus.
A warship that looks very, very awesome, bathed in starlight, enjoying the attention of all the people, bluffing away all the civilian ships on the way, and flying majesticly towards the pass, then, it idiotically hit the iron plate and ate This scene is really funny, very entertaining, very comedic and ironic.
Someone spoke harshly, and did not hide the gloating in his heart: "Don't pretend to be x, pretend to be struck by lightning... No, this is clearly a typical pretending to be stupid."
Someone said it very euphemistically: "Whether it is a prop for filming, a marketing tool for military enterprises, or deliberately showing off, anyway, it has been rejected, and the people sitting on it must be embarrassing."
Whether Tang Fang is embarrassing or not, Mr. Colonel doesn't know, anyway, he knows that he is embarrassing, and General Harrowy is also embarrassing.
The military general in charge of patrolling the periphery of "Khanos" couldn't even handle the customs, which was really embarrassing.
Yuffie not only sent the final warning to the customs, but also passed it on to the flagship of the 15th patrol unit.
Of course, in the eyes of everyone on the bridge, that didn't look like a warning, but more like a threat.
Captain Tang has an appointment with Prince Henrietta. What the customs have done is slapping His Royal Highness in the face. Vladimir needs to carefully weigh the consequences of doing so.
Seeing such content, they could only shake their heads and smile wryly, thinking that Captain Tang was really naive, or maybe he didn't understand the situation. Vladimir is a member of the new faction, and he is very close to Prince Tyronn, and the "Angel" "Going through the civil checkpoint is indeed a bit illegal. The other party said that it needs to be studied and approved. It is completely in accordance with the rules. It is not at fault. Even if Henrietta knows about it and wants to ask the customs about the crime, I am afraid that Vladimir can't do anything. At most Taking off the black hats of several small customs officials is really hard to resist the negative impact of losing face.
"The new Duke of Kenar just arrived at 'Khanos' and had a closed-door follow-up, and was slapped in the head by Prince Tyrann."
News like this will sweep through the entire kingdom and the international community. Whether it is Tang Fang, Elena, or Henrietta, they will lose face and damage their reputation.
The best way now is to immediately report to General Harrowy, and then contact His Royal Highness the Regent to put pressure on the customs to minimize the negative impact.
No one thought there was a better way to break this embarrassment. Unlike the civilians who were watching in the distance, the members of the 15th Patrol Fleet hoped that the incident would subside as soon as possible so that His Royal Highness the Regent would not be angry with them.
Just when everyone was lamenting that Captain Tang would suffer from being dumb this time, an unexpected situation happened.
Two touches of red brilliance suddenly shot out from inside the galaxy-like shield, lighting up the surrounding void at once. It also lit up everyone's eyes, and then there were two huge flames, wrapped in layers of thick smoke, expanding rapidly outward.
Countless steel wreckage sprayed out, and the huge broken metal equipment was separated from the main building of the pass, or turned around. Smashing on the nearby metal brackets, crushing countless peripherals, or going all the way, flying into the bottomless void.
The wreckage fragments sprayed by the explosion formed groups of high-speed jets, sweeping through the nearby airspace, and scratched shocking scratches on the surfaces of various space-based facilities.
The people who watched the excitement from afar were frightened. One by one, they pressed their faces against the porthole, staring blankly at the distant picture.
That is not a spaceship model used by a film and television company to make a movie, nor is it a harmless sample designed by a military enterprise. It is really a warship, and more importantly. It dared to stand at the gate of "Khanos", ignored the 15th patrol fleet and the large number of space-based defense platforms behind it, and bombarded the customs toll office and inspection area. Hanos" navy, insulting the dignity of His Majesty the King.
They thought it was a very common incident of making things difficult, that the officials at the customs couldn't understand the other party's publicity behavior, and deliberately made the people on that ship look bad to show the supremacy of power.
No one expected that things would suddenly escalate. That spaceship was a real battleship, and it dared to attack first, causing the situation to escalate into a war.
Part of the metal jet tumbled rapidly from afar. Large and small civilian spaceships are like frightened schools of fish, escaping further away at the fastest speed.
In the final analysis, the metal jet is a small matter, and the fear of being involved in the flames of war is real.
The person who mocked the "Angel" for pretending to be stupid chose to keep his mouth shut, looking at the fragmented checkpoint in the distance with a horrified expression.
Someone next to him gloated: "Oh, that gentleman who just said stupid. You are so humorous."
This is also very humorous, but it is cold humor.
It was mentioned earlier that a person kicked an iron board. The next second the iron plate was smashed to pieces, that's not called pretending to be stupid. That is deliberately provoking trouble, deliberately provoking trouble.
"Just wait and see, they... they are dead, this is the 'Khanos' customs, at the foot of the king's capital! Those people dare to attack the customs, the fate is obvious, the 15th Patrol Fleet and those space-based defense platforms are absolutely Will shoot it into a sieve." Mr. Dirty Mouth distinguished, using growls to cover up the embarrassment on his face, and replaced the shock in his eyes with resentment and hatred: "They will definitely pay for such behavior."
"Fuck your ass!" The speaker was the gentleman who euphemistically expressed his regret just now. Obviously, he is not a gentleman, and his ability to make sarcastic remarks is not low.
There was a burst of laughter in the cabin. indeed! It has nothing to do with him if he pretends to be fake or not, what will happen to that eye-catching battleship, it's just that some poor people always think about embarrassing others, but end up embarrassing themselves, which is really a kind of grandstanding.
The conversation on the airliner is just a small episode, and most people are more worried about their own safety. The timid and fearful guys started their warp speed engines to leave this dangerous airspace one after another. Only the bold and curious people chose to stay and wait and see how things progress.
They will drive the ship to a farther place, use high-precision sensors to capture the scene that happened in the distance, and guess in their hearts the origin of the mysterious warship, as well as the actions of the customs and the military.
In terms of actions, the actions of the customs side are that everyone is stunned, or it can be said that they are frightened. Like the people watching the fun outside, no one thought that the "Angel" would suddenly open fire, and there was no scruple here. It was "Khanos", who didn't care about the dangerous situation of being outnumbered, and fired as soon as he said he would, without giving anyone face, let alone giving those people on the checkpoint a way out.
It sent a message to the customs in the first second, and opened fire in the next second.
Many people thought that the message was a warning and a threat. Unfortunately, they were wrong. Attacking and killing were Captain Tang's warning and threat.
The person in charge of the checkpoint planned to send this news to Vladimir in a minute or two, and prepared some official and clichés to respond to the other party's questioning. It is a pity that he did not spit out the draft in his stomach into language and words until he died.
All he spit out was screams, and then he became insignificant garbage in the dark universe.
Of course, he and those female customs officers were not alone. The positron cannon of the "Angel" used "shot" at the beginning, turning that checkpoint into a pile of rubbish. The two beams turned into a "sweep". As a result, red arcs mixed with winding arcs swept across the two wings, and those space-based defense platforms transformed into combat readiness turned into a line of fire in the blink of an eye.
There was silence on the bridge of the 12 warships belonging to the 15th Patrol Fleet, and the commander's words "don't act rashly, wait for the general's order" still lingered in his ears.
The captains squeezed cold sweat in their palms. I thought to myself that fortunately I didn't make an attacking gesture, otherwise the fate of those space-based defense platforms would be a portrayal of their future.
That kid was too arrogant and too ruthless, he turned his face when he said it, and he did it when he said it, without any scruples about where this was. How many troops were stationed, and the customs didn't open the door for him, so he opened a door on the warp speed interception network himself.
A captain said in horror: "God, thanks to the prudence of the commander, we can save our lives. That kid is not human at all, he is a devil."
The soldiers didn't know that it was the commander's prudence that saved their lives, but the politically sensitive colonel knew that he couldn't afford to offend anyone involved in this matter, so he might as well throw this hot potato to Ha Roy, it's better to have the general take responsibility for what happened than to be punished yourself.
Such thinking not only saved his own life, but also saved the lives of all soldiers of the 15th Patrol Fleet.
What is the history of "Angel"? Epsilon Creation. Although it is only a semi-military ship, the power of the positron cannon is not comparable to that of ordinary human warships.
The 15th Patrol Fleet has only 12 ships, and the most powerful flagship is only a Holy Knight-class light cruiser. Then there are 3 Retribution Knight-class destroyers, 7 Preacher-class frigates and 1 True Sight-class reconnaissance ship.
The Ipsilon creation part of the single core of the "Angel" is nearly 400 meters, and its volume is larger than that of the Archbishop-class heavy cruiser. Even though it has only one, it is by no means an existence that such a small patrol fleet can match.
"Correspondent, contact the headquarters immediately."
"Captain, the reply from the communications department at the headquarters is that General Harrowy is still on the phone with his boss."
"Still talking?" Mr. Colonel threw his hat on the ground angrily. The facial muscles on both sides of the nose twisted into a ball: "Send the picture just now, immediately! Immediately!"
It doesn't matter who Halroy is talking to. He didn't believe that His Excellency the General could sit still after seeing such a scene, even if the opponent was Prince Tai Lun. That too has to take a backseat.
The 15th Patrol Fleet was like petrified, standing motionless behind the side of the "Angel".
Several forts on the fixed defense line belonging to the Customs splashed light rain on the energy shield. Unfortunately, not even a single wave was splashed, and all attacks seemed to disappear.
But when the crimson light beams from the energy shield fall on them, what blooms is flames, what spreads is death, and what sublimates is destruction.
Nothing can survive under those two beams.
The "Angel" opened a gap in the border warp interception network covering the entire star system, and the light of explosions and flames swarmed out like moonlight elves who had regained their freedom.
Those who retreated farther and farther were stunned. Unexpectedly, a fight really broke out, and the scale was getting bigger and bigger. Looking at this posture, that powerful and mysterious warship planned to demolish all the warp interception equipment and customs buildings in the nearby airspace. up.
This... this is simply too bold, too lawless!
The strange thing is that the 15th Patrol Fleet did not respond. Even the 18th Patrol Fleet and the 14th Patrol Fleet, which came to support after detecting the war, slowed down halfway and flew towards the war zone at a leisurely pace. It seemed that they were not rushing to fight the fire, but rather It is passive sabotage, deliberately delaying time.
What exactly is going on?
The people who were still watching were dumbfounded. Some people found that the guy who started to mock the mysterious battleship had already fallen asleep on the back of the chair. Even though there were many mocking eyes on his face, he was still sleeping peacefully and sweetly.
A child who seemed to be only 7 or 8 years old said contemptuously: "Mom, he has such a thick skin, it seems... like the energy shield of that battleship."
There was laughter in the cabin, and the man twitched the corners of his mouth.
At the same time, there was another person who twitched the corner of his mouth --- Director Vladimir of the "Khanos" Customs Administration. He not only twitched the corners of his mouth, but also twitched the corners of his eyes and his protruding belly.
When the 15th Patrol Fleet sent the on-site video to the headquarters, the coastal defense intelligence system also reported to him what happened on the front line, including battle video records, damage to the defense line, and communication content between front-line checkpoints and the "Angel".
According to his thinking, he wanted to kill Captain Tang's prestige, and wait for Henrietta to exert pressure, or when the young man was furious, and then come forward to resolve the matter. Just like in the past, waiting for his subordinates to drive those business organizations with no background to the sky and nowhere to go, he, the director, will show up as a good person again, not to mention earning the kindness and praise of others, he can also make a lot of money , You can also show off your official authority and enjoy the pleasure brought by power.
The little soldiers sang bad faces, and the director sang bad faces. He eats meat, and his subordinates drink soup. They cooperate tacitly and have a perfect official style.
Even if some unscrupulous subordinates provoke some difficult people with extremely hard backgrounds, such as people who work for the local lord's family business, famous international trade organizations, and businessmen who are related to important officials of various ministries, just put down your dignity, and then Dealing with the responsible person symbolically can not only resolve the hatred, but also take the opportunity to meet more high-ranking people and expand one's network.
Frandimir was never a good candidate for office. (to be continued)
ps: ...I have been brewing emotions for a long time, but I didn't pull it out, my gums didn't swell and I didn't pull it out, I just drank a bowl of porridge at night, this is the rhythm that will torture me to death.
