Chapter 288 Negotiation
Chapter 285 Negotiation

In the case of requesting communication, it cannot be said that there is no hostility, but at least it means that talks are possible. After all, no one present wants to fight without reason. This is space. As long as a warship is destroyed, it means the lives of hundreds of space soldiers. Life is precious and cannot be sacrificed at will.

On the screen in the hall, there were very official speeches, with long speeches praising the emperor and the empire. Everyone skipped over them and turned their attention to more important things.

The message clearly and concisely introduced themselves as the Emperor's guard, the Imperial Fists Chapter, and that their main purpose for coming this time was to lead the lost citizens of the Empire back to the Emperor's arms, which in other words meant to allow the Earth to join the Empire.

The next thing is that after the Earth returns to the Empire, there will be welfare policies and obligations that the Earth needs to fulfill. There are many benefits, mainly that the Earth will be directly governed by the Terra Council, and will retain all of its current legions and limited sovereignty. The Empire will no longer restrict it and it will enjoy the treatment of the Mechanicus, although the Earth does not know what the Mechanicus is or what kind of existence it is in the Empire.

The Empire will also ensure the safety of the Earth, clear out all alien races that may threaten the Earth, allow the Earth to have a comfortable scientific research environment, and provide a certain amount of scientific research resources to the Earth every year.

This is only one part of it. There are hundreds of benefits for individuals, such as entering the empire's military and political system, and being promoted regardless of seniority for the same political achievements. I won't go into details.

The obligations are even simpler. All you have to do is share the Earth's scientific and technological achievements with the Empire and provide a certain amount of talent to the Empire every ten years.

The benefits are frighteningly many, but the obligations are only two, which is simply incomparable. This makes the people on Earth unable to understand why the Empire does this. Is it giving away benefits? For such unprovoked kindness, the Earth side must have the greatest malice to speculate on the Empire's intentions. After all, those who are not of our race must have different hearts.

Moreover, as a sovereign civilization that can soon be promoted to a god-creating civilization, the Earth has no intention of being incorporated into the Empire.

So, after reading the message sent by the empire, Lianfeng took a deep breath and spoke in a cold voice.

"Notify them that their fleet has entered the star zone of Earth civilization. Give them half an hour to leave this star system. Otherwise, they will be regarded as enemies of Earth civilization."

Lianfeng's order was well conveyed. Within a few minutes, the empire received the notice. After receiving the notice, the commander of the empire knew that today's mission would not be so easy to complete.

However, the commander had no worries about not being able to complete the mission. He even looked a little excited. Standing on the platform at the top of the hall, he looked at the silent soldiers wearing yellow power armor and holding bolter rifles. He spoke loudly, and the soldiers also responded loudly. The atmosphere was extremely solemn.

“What is your duty?!
To serve the emperor's will.
What is the emperor's will?!
Let me fight and die.
What is death?!
It is our duty.
We are the emperor's finest.
Faith is our shield.
Hate is our weapon.
We should know, no fear. (We need to know that we have nothing to fear)
We are the angels of death.
"

After a prayer-like question and answer session, the commander slammed his power hammer into the ground. Where it touched the metal ground, a loud noise was made. The sound echoed in the hall. All the soldiers were silent. After waiting for the hall to become silent again, the commander took a step forward.

"Now, there are people who want to go against the Emperor's will and escape the Emperor's glory. As the Imperial Fists, we need to wake them up. Now, let's go!"

The commander's orders were transmitted to every part of every Imperial warship. All the soldiers heard them clearly and responded, moving step by step towards the landing ships used for space boarding.

Ten minutes passed quickly. Seeing that the Empire's fleet did not make any moves, the space fortress upgraded its combat readiness from level 2 to level 1, loaded its guns, and opened the protective shell of the nuclear missile launch button.

Although the Earth does not want a war, it is not afraid of one. The Empire has not shown any hostility. If the Empire's fleet leaves now, the Earth can just treat them as passing by, which is nothing.

But if the Empire shows hostility, the nature of the situation will change completely. The Earth will be attacked at its doorstep. If the Earth cannot launch a strong counterattack, it will have no face to survive in the known universe.

When the Taotie invaded the Earth, China was extremely poor, but the soldiers were able to fight the invaders to the death despite casualties outnumbering them by dozens to one. Let alone now that the Earth civilization has everything it needs, including people, warships, and nuclear bombs.

When everyone in the space fortress was on alert and the atmosphere was extremely tense, the Empire's warships suddenly moved. The engines provided powerful power to the warships, and the originally dense formation slowly dispersed.

Lian Feng became nervous instantly when he saw this scene. While issuing defense orders in an orderly manner, he also issued combat orders to everyone in the Xiongbing Company, especially people like Yun Yang, Qiangwei and Ge Xiaolun who could easily attack warships. Lian Feng sent them out.

The remaining people were deployed to various locations in the space fortress to support the enhanced warriors who were unable to respond to psychics.

The enemy's troop strength and types are unknown. Lianfeng can only guess whether the psykers of the Human Empire will go to the battlefield, because the Imperial Fleet has already said that they are the Emperor's guards, so they must have come from the center of the empire.

Being able to serve as the imperial emperor's personal guard, they must be extremely powerful and have the best resources and manpower support. So, it seems quite reasonable that there are some psychics among the combatants.

After a series of orders were issued, all the combatants in the command hall were assigned out. As a commander who was powerless, Lianfeng suddenly remembered what happened to Admiral Dukao. He could only contact Qiangwei again and ask her to set up a wormhole defense barrier for the command hall.

Qiangwei did not hesitate. Not only did she set up the wormhole defense barrier, she also placed a wormhole that could directly return to the outer universe.

At this time, an exchange of fire had already begun outside. The Empire opened fire first, and the Earth side retaliated in self-defense. Although this title was of no use, it could boost the morale of the Earth's soldiers.

The Empire's cathedral-style battleships have surrounded one side of the space fortress, and all of their guns are firing shells.

The huge shells hit the thick steel shell of the space fortress, leaving holes more than ten centimeters deep.

However, it was of no use. Although the shells fell like raindrops, the size of the space fortress was too large.

Because for Ge Xiaolun, steel can be easily kneaded into a pile of materials, and because it is in space, there is no need to consider the impact of gravity on the material.

The outer steel shell of the space fortress alone is ten meters thick, and the innermost part even has a layer of one and a half meters of alloy mixed with dark iron.

Therefore, it is basically impossible for the Empire to directly destroy the space fortress with naval guns.

Of course, the Empire's fleet never thought of using only naval guns. Their most powerful weapons were not the battleships, but the power armor warriors who were chanting prayers.

The angels of death belonging to the Empire lined up one by one and entered the landing craft used for space boarding battles.

It is this type of landing craft that escorts the Empire's warriors and carries them to enemy warships.

Then, these power armor warriors killed everyone in the enemy ships, wiping out the alien races that were eyeing the empire.

Countless landing craft flew out from the warships and headed towards the space fortress at an incredibly fast speed.

At the same time, the technicians at the space fortress directly analyzed that those airships were landing equipment.

All the ordinary missiles on standby, with long tail flames, flew towards the densely packed landing capsules.

As for why ordinary missiles were used, have you ever seen a nuclear bomb being used to attack a blimp? Although nuclear bombs are quite cheap for the current Earth.

But the inventory of the space fortress is also limited. Using nuclear bombs to attack landing infantry is just like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. Wouldn't it be better to use it to attack battleships?

More than ten seconds later, the missiles and landing craft began to come into contact. Some missiles were intercepted, while others hit the craft directly, destroying them and burying the soldiers inside in space.

The base numbers of both were large. After a wave of missiles, one-fifth of the landing craft were destroyed.

Lianfeng did not hesitate and ordered another wave of missiles to be launched.

This time, because the landing craft had limited interception weapons and ammunition, they had never seen an enemy that could replenish missiles so quickly.

This missile interception directly destroyed a quarter of the landing craft.

Although the missiles were replenished quickly, the speed of the landing craft was also incredibly fast. After two waves of missiles.

The landing craft had already entered within a thousand meters of the space fortress, and the hot-melt equipment of the landing craft began to store energy.

The distance of a thousand meters was reached in an instant, the hot melt laser opened the way, and the landing craft instantly crashed into the heavy armor of the space fortress.

Then, they were in trouble, as the ten-meter-thick outer steel alloy armor was cut open by the heat.

But the half-meter-thick dark iron alloy inside could not be cut through instantly by the landing craft's melt laser.

Naturally, except for some lucky landing craft that happened to rush into the missile silos and docks, all were stuck in the external armor of the space fortress.
