The two Armed Merchant Ships quickly prepared for attack, but did not take off blindly.
Both captains were very experienced and first asked the ground if there was any chance of taking off.
There was no formal reply at all from the ground, but someone shouted at the top of their lungs, "The fire is fierce, be careful!"
This wave of attacks was indeed too fierce and sudden.
A total of six starships not only attacked five fortresses, but also destroyed Signal Tower.
Signal Tower is not only responsible for commanding takeoff and landing, it is also the communication center of the star and can send information to the outside.
Signal Tower's defense is not bad, but it is not a war fortress after all. It was riddled with holes in the first place and eventually fell to the ground.
Five fortresses are much more difficult to defeat, especially since they are well prepared and their protection intensity is not low at the beginning, but then increases rapidly after being attacked.
However, it was of no use after all. Under the control of Xiao Hu, the four Small Ship evaded and attacked flexibly.
At Buduo, most of the firepower points were accurately removed one by one.
A fortress that has lost its firepower is like a lion that has lost its teeth, unable to launch a decent attack at all.
After fighting for about five minutes, a fortress burst into flames - this was caused by the explosion of ammunition.
It would be easier for six starships to deal with four fortresses.
As for those small firepower points, they simply cannot withstand the random bombardment of Ship Cannon.
The attack on the hospital also originated from this. The hospital has defensive firepower, but it is still not enough.
When Qu Jianlei realized that this was a hospital, he instructed Xiao Hu to launch a continuous attack on the place.
It's not that he has a dark mind and thinks that attacking the hospital can show cruelty. The key hospital is one of the important buildings of this planet.
Not only are there medical staff and patients here, but a lot of protective forces are also concentrated here.
Another key point is the starship repair shop. The freed warships also bombard the factory building indiscriminately.
Fortunately, the star got the news in advance. Just in case, a starship to be repaired was transported away a day ago.
There are also some starships with minor malfunctions that flew away on their own, and it is unlikely that starships will come to repair them in the short term.
However, even so, the various repair equipment that had been destroyed in the repair shop were enough to make Three United Company jump in pain.
The two starships in the underground Ship Hangar were not discovered by Qu Jianlei at first. Such Ship Hangar is generally relatively secretive.
But regardless of any starship, as soon as it is activated, it will emit energy fluctuations.
Ship Hangar's concealment facilities are relatively well done, and with the bombing going on outside, this energy fluctuation is not very noticeable.
However, although the two Armed Merchant Ship did not take off, they continued to lift the Energy Shield.
In this way, strong energy fluctuations can no longer be hidden from Qu Jianlei.
Just as some of the current combat power can be mobilized, he decisively ordered, "8384 Ship, attack the energy fluctuations on the surface!"
As soon as 8384 Ship's target was transferred, Armed Merchant Ship in Ship Hangar knew that it had been discovered, and decisively ordered to increase Ship Hangar's defense.
However, in order to prevent Ship Hangar from being discovered, Energy Shield was set too low. At this time, it was too late to increase it.
Concealment and defense cannot have both, one must always be sacrificed.
Ship Hangar Most of it collapsed under a round of artillery fire.
Fortunately, the protective covers of the two Armed Merchant Ships have been raised and they are hiding deep in the Ship Hangars, so they are still safe for the time being.
However, the passage to the sky was completely blocked, and if you wanted to break out, you would have to brave intense firepower.
No one has the courage to make such a decision. The other party's firepower is really extraordinary.
Just as the second fort was breached, the other forts signaled "surrender".
At the same time, all fire points stopped shooting, but the energy protection was not reduced.
This is also common practice, and it does not mean that they have to fight stubbornly. They are just worried that the other party will not accept surrender and must protect themselves.
Seeing this, Qu Jianlei spared the remaining three fortresses and concentrated firepower to attack other places.
Soon, "surrender" signals were flashed everywhere and counterattacks stopped.
8384 Ship also flashed a signal, meaning "only unconditional surrender will be accepted"! For the people of Three Harmonies, the meat is on the chopping block now, no one dares to resist, and the lively battlefield suddenly fell silent.
Four small Attack Ship returned to the starship to replenish energy and ammunition, and Qu Jianlei opened the public channel again.
"Those two Armed Merchant Ship... Why don't you stop quickly?"
"Okay, stop the car, stop the car right now," a voice came from the other side, sounding a little crying.
This wave of attacks came quickly and fiercely. Although Three United Company was well prepared, he was still beaten.
The power of the two Armed Merchant Ship slowly stopped, and the crew ran out in a swarm. Only two captains did not disembark.
At this time, it is more dangerous for people in the merchant ship. It is better to hide in the open area for safety.
Qu Jianlei saw that the other party had executed it thoroughly and spoke up again.
"I need 500 million silver notes and take away these two merchant ships... It won't be so cheap next time."
He didn't bother to say anything about the cause and effect. The characteristics of 8384 Ship were so obvious that he didn't need to explain more.
However, the other party said, "Sir, please listen to our explanation about this matter..."
"No need to explain," Qu Jianlei interrupted the other party coldly, "We are not negotiating, but telling you!"
To tell the truth, the other party knew that he had sent Protection Card, but still wanted to coerce him... This was enough.
As for the reason, he doesn't want to hear it at all - I only know that you are provoking in a naked and fruitful way.
In fact, people from Three Harmonies can really list some reasons, which can even be said to be a last resort.
Otherwise, they would not dare to ignore the amulet issued by a supreme team.
These reasons may not necessarily convince the other party, but they can objectively reduce the responsibility and achieve relatively better results.
However, people didn't listen at all, which was very helpless.
This person did not dare to forcefully defend himself. Facing the attack of the supreme team, the consequences of ignorance would be serious.
But there is one thing, he still has to explain, "Sir, there is a Armed Merchant Ship, which is not the asset of Three Harmonies."
"What does this have to do with me!" Qu Jianlei said simply, "The starship that you guys forcibly held hostage is Three Harmonies's asset?"
"Stop talking nonsense, within half an hour, I want to see 500 million silver notes!"
"Sir, we really don't have so many banknotes," the person on the other side was about to cry, "This is just a place to rest!"
This is true. Banknotes are hard currency at Asteroid Belt, but there is no need to prepare so much.
There is no shortage of anything except minerals here, and it is useless no matter how much money you have.
Qu Jianlei snorted coldly when he heard this, "Then everyone, come out, we will destroy everything here!"
Destroying things when you can't get money is not his invention, nor is it just Space Pirate's patent.
In Asteroid Belt, there are many forces doing this.
Although destroying the opponent's means of production and livelihood is harmful to others, it is not beneficial to oneself, but the point here is that "people cannot stand firm if they are not ruthless."
And from a competitive perspective, the opponent's loss is to enhance one's own competitiveness. This is how Jungle society is originally.
But this request really cost Three United Company his life.
The person on the other side didn't care much and shouted directly on the public channel, "Sir, spare our lives, we will die!"
It is indeed mortal. Although Tears is a large star, it doesn't even have an atmosphere on the surface! As the hub of Three Harmonies, it is also a place for rest and recuperation, and the infrastructure is complete.
Just think about Lan Yun Market, where even the air can be sold for money!
Once all Three Harmonies's facilities are destroyed, how will so many people survive? I'm afraid even Oxygen Supplement is not enough.
"What does your life and death have to do with us?" Paranoid spoke coldly.
"Run out now. At least I can hold on until Oxygen Supplement is used up. If you don't agree, you will die soon!"
The other party had an urgent discussion and came up with a compromise suggestion: Would it be okay to pay as much as possible first?
Three Harmonies's cash in Tears Star is about more than 80 million, and Energy Block is worth more than 90 million.
This is the meaning of the center - there must be a certain amount of energy reserves to prepare for the unexpected needs of a certain mine.
These banknotes can be delivered immediately, but Energy Block... can only take out 70 million, and they must leave behind what they need for survival.
In other words, the other party is willing to pay 150 million, and the remaining 350 million... can only be issued as an IOU.
Of course, whether the remaining money can be obtained depends on the strength of Hongjingtian Team.
Qu Jianlei certainly knew this, so he agreed without hesitation.
Not to mention whether he will have time to collect the debt in the future, but if he dares not agree now, he will be looked down upon! But the matter couldn't just be let go. After receiving the IOU, he commanded the starship to destroy two more residences.
There is no other intention, just to vent your anger!
The collection of Energy Block was handed over to Hua Xiezhi and Paranoid. The two of them held a large amount of Item-Storing Talisman and swept the warehouse away.
Then two starships grabbed two Armed Merchant Ship and took off into the sky, and Buduo disappeared.
From the time they appeared to the time they left, it only took an hour in total. It could be said that they came and went like the wind.
The main reason why they move so quickly is that they are worried about being attacked from both inside and outside.
The whereabouts of Baron's team are still unknown. The military has also stepped up its crackdown on Asteroid Belt. It really can't wait long.
Even in Lan Yun Market, 8384 Ship did not stay long, just for the same reason.
That's not the case, Qu Jianlei would not let Three United Company off so easily.
However, he felt that he had let it go easily, but the people at Three Harmonies were getting angry and yelling.
"I have never seen such a greedy guy. Two starships plus five hundred million...Space Pirate more than Space Pirate!"
"It's really like this. Even if we coerce others, we still have to pay the fee. He is openly robbing us!"
"You are really capable, don't vent your anger on us, or just wait a little longer until the military comes to coordinate!"
"Is our money so easy to grab? We have to make it known, someone will deal with him!"
"But... if you want to spread the news, you must at least repair Signal Tower and the communication equipment first!"
