Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 1174
Alente did not break his promise. Not long after Queen Kang Sheng returned to the home planet of the Jijing clan, more than 1 captured members of the Jijing clan's royal family were sent back.Because other clansmen were still in the hands of the enemy, Queen Kang Sheng did not publicize this matter, and even restricted the actions of these royal family members.

Of course, Alliant also put forward new requirements.

"Just like that?"

"Although I don't know why he made such a request, it must have had a great impact, so I wrote it all down, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it."

Queen Kang Sheng nodded slightly, lowered her head and meditated, without asking any more questions.

The one who brought back the news was Queen Kang Sheng's sister and Princess Yarrow of the Jijing clan, the Duchess Aurelia.Because she is a core member of the extreme family royal family, Aurela has many titles. Alor Star is her fiefdom, and the Duchess is the title bestowed on her by Queen Kang Sheng after she ascended the throne and became king.In addition, she is also the front-line Presidential Marshal of the Extreme Clan, and was responsible for commanding all transport spacecraft before that.After the Jijing tribe officially joined the war, she organized a breakout operation, allowing many stranded transport spaceships to return to the southern region smoothly.It was just that she was intercepted when she was about to return from the northern region, because most of the warships were sent to cover the evacuation of the fleet, so she failed to break through smoothly.After a desperate resistance, Aurela decided to surrender, after all, there are thousands of extreme warriors by her side.

According to what Aurella said, they were not abused, at least members of the extreme royal family like her were treated well, but they lost the right to move freely.Of course, she is also the commander-in-chief of the prisoner-of-war camp where she is, and the spiritual leader of other captured extreme warriors.

The news Aurela brought back was that Arende asked the Extreme Realm tribe to exchange small fast spaceships for prisoners of war, and offered a fair price in Arende's words.That is, ten prisoners of war were exchanged for each small fast ship, and the deal was done on the spot.To put it simply, when the Alliant sent the prisoners back, these escorts drove the exchanged small fast warships to leave.Arende also asked Aurela to remind Queen Kang Sheng that he would send back the first batch of [-] extreme prisoners of war in five days, so Queen Kang Sheng had to prepare [-] small fast spaceships before that.If he is not ready, he will execute [-] Jijing prisoners of war and send the bodies of these prisoners to Queen Kang Sheng.However, the matter is not over yet.According to Alliant, Queen Consheng still had to hand over [-] small fast spaceships, and the second batch of escorts would drive them away.Otherwise, he would execute [-] prisoners of the Jijing tribe every five days and send them back to the Jijing tribe's home planet until Queen Kang Sheng succumbed.

Apparently, Arende wasn't joking.

The key point is that Arende gave Aurella two lists, each with the names of 20 prisoners of war.That is to say, the prisoners of war on one of the lists will return to the home planet of the Extreme Clan in five days, and the fate of the prisoners of war on the other list will also be decided in five days.Queen Kang Sheng had asked the elders to check the two lists, and confirmed that all the [-] extreme warriors on the list were on the missing list.

Of course, starting from the situation, Arende obviously wouldn't joke about such an important matter.

Not only Queen Kang Sheng, but all the elders believed that Arende would definitely do what he said, not just a threat, that is, the Jijing tribe had to start preparing small fast spaceships.

For the Jijing tribe, [-] small fast spaceships are obviously not too many.

Of course, exchanging a small fast spaceship for ten clansmen would not be a disadvantage.You must know that the captured extreme warriors are all adults, and they are in their prime. As long as they survive, the value they create must far exceed that of a small fast spaceship.More importantly, many things related to the tribe cannot be measured by value. At least Queen Kang Sheng cannot abandon these tribesmen who have made great contributions to the Jijing tribe and even fought bloody battles for some small fast spaceships, otherwise It is also impossible for her to win the support of other clansmen.In addition, this is so far the only way to bring the people back safely. Even if it violates many principles of Queen Kang Sheng, she has no other choice. In fact, she doesn't even have a chance to bargain with Arende.

There is only one choice before Queen Kang Sheng, that is, either accept the conditions offered by Arende, or refuse.

Of course, all the elders thought it was acceptable.Even if it is difficult to save all the clansmen with this method, it is a good thing to save some of them.

However, Queen Kang Sheng did not make a decision immediately.

If there is no other choice, it is obviously not a problem to prepare [-] small fast spacecraft, and it will not take five days at all.After the Jijing tribe officially entered the war, Queen Kang Sheng issued a mobilization order and issued some prohibitions.Up to now, most of the small fast spaceships of the Extreme Realm Clan are on standby in the local star system or nearby star systems. Queen Kang Sheng can requisition these small fast spaceships at any time as long as necessary.

Of course, the number is definitely quite a lot, and [-] ships may not even be a fraction.

According to the statistical report submitted by the Council of Elders, there are more than 100 million small fast spacecraft on standby in the local star system at this time, and more than half of them have completed the necessary maintenance and are ready to sail at any time.In addition, there are several times as many small fast spaceships in the nearby star system, one-third of which have completed maintenance and are in a usable state, and they are all equipped with crew members, that is, they can come to the local star system at any time.

The question is, give in?
Alente has clearly mentioned that a batch of prisoners of war will be exchanged every five days in the future, so the Jijing tribe will be able to deliver small fast spacecraft at a rate of [-] every five days.

Obviously, this is something that must be considered.

After discussing with the elders and getting a collective decision from the elders, Queen Kang Sheng contacted Yu Minghui to ask for his opinion.

"Ten thousand ships every five days?"

Queen Kang Sheng nodded and said: "This is what Arende told Aurella himself, but it may not be certain, and there may be variables. Of course, Arende's request proves that the actions we have taken before have been accepted. As a result, he has not been able to obtain enough small fast spaceships to complete the deployment as planned. In addition, he did not think that this has something to do with us, at least not with our Extreme Race. Otherwise, he would not have asked We made this request. We now have enough small fast spaceships. Even if we cannot exchange all the prisoners of war, we can maintain them for a period of time, which means buying us more time. According to our previous judgment, Allen It needs at least hundreds of millions of small fast spacecraft to complete the initial deployment, and at a speed of [-] every five days, it takes [-] days to obtain so many small fast spacecraft, so the impact should not be great in the short term.”

"So you decided to exchange the small fast ships for the prisoners?"

"We have no other choice."

"That's true. Arende wasn't joking, so you can only agree. But, I don't think things are as simple as you think."

"What more can there be?"

"So many civilizations have declared limited neutrality recently, and most of the spaceships sent out by them have not reached the northern region. Even if Arendt is a simple-minded wild beastman, he can think that it must be very different from you. Apart from anything else, at least our human federation cannot neutralize the civilizations in the eastern region and the western region, and only you, the Extreme Realm, have the ability."

"This……"

"Obviously, as long as the Alenites send people to investigate, the main reason for keeping these civilizations neutral is to prevent them from providing small fast spaceships. Don't forget, you have returned all the small fast spaceships before this, and Concentrated in the local star system. It can even be said that Alente already knows this. If these small fast spacecraft are distributed in the entire southern region, even if you issue an order now, they will not be able to return to the local star within five days Therefore, it cannot be used to exchange prisoners of war. Based on these clues, it is actually not difficult to make accurate inferences. In other words, Arende has long known the actions taken by the Jijing tribe."

Queen Kang Sheng secretly sighed, Yu Minghui's analysis made her unable to refute.

"Since we are controlling the small fast spacecraft, it is not difficult for Arende to imagine that we have already guessed his intention and are taking action. Then, why did he propose to you at this time to exchange prisoners of war for the small fast spacecraft? Said he was sure that you would definitely agree? If so, why didn't he bring it up when you went to see him, but asked Aurela to bring you a message?"

"This……"

"More importantly, asking for a small fast spaceship from the Extreme Realm at this time is tantamount to telling us that their operations have been affected and cannot be completed within the scheduled time. Obviously, this is also the inference you started to make. If You are Arende, would you do this kind of thing that reveals your details? In other words, even if the threat succeeds, Arende has to consider the resulting variables, because it is obviously impossible for us to The prisoner of war will give up everything and let him destroy the Southern Alpha galaxy without interference. As long as we can see through this problem, not only will it be impossible for us to agree, but we will take action in advance based on this discovery.”

"You mean..."

"At least, we now have more confidence in rescuing the prisoners of the Extreme Realm."

Queen Kang Sheng frowned, then nodded slightly, letting Yu Minghui continue.

"Besides, Arende just made a request to you, but he didn't contact us, nor did he make a similar request to us. Although there are not many human prisoners of war, if he wants to buy time, it is impossible to exclude us. We must also be threatened to make us submit. Otherwise, after we take action, his threat to you will lose its value. Don't forget, the speed of [-] ships in five days is not fast, and it is even surprisingly slow. Arend Obviously we don't expect us to delay our attack until after [-] days."

What Yu Minghui said, to be precise, was the last sentence, which made Queen Kang Sheng wake up suddenly.
