In this world, how many people who have a normal way out will become pirates?
You know, now is the era of great discovery in the Milky Way, and there are gold-mining opportunities everywhere. And even if you commit a misdemeanor, there is no need to fall into the trap of being a criminal - as long as you agree to join the expedition, you will always get the opportunity to "start over again as a hero", and the possibility of going to jail is very small.
Perhaps only the most vicious felons, anarchists, mentally retarded people, and batarians become pirates. However, the funniest thing is that this is not the Age of Discovery where freedom and romance coexist. Today's pirate world is extremely cruel! The society of pirates is the society with the strictest classes, the most severe oppression, and the society where life is often paid...
Therefore, in the entire galaxy, if you make a mistake, you can choose to start over in another place, and most of the lawless people are absorbed by the mercenary group. The only pirates that can truly be called a gathering are those near the Skirian Star Cluster and supported by the Batarian Empire.
It can be seen from the current situation that the pirates are not short of ships. Because the owner of a robbed ship can easily obtain compensation from the insurance company and then be busy making a comeback. Who will find their ship? Moreover, any ship that has anything to do with pirates, once it is on the navy's blacklist, will not be able to enter circulation again - the pirates can only use it for their own use and cannot sell it if they want.
The pirates did not lack ships, but what they really lacked was warships and weapons.
According to the laws enacted by the Citadel Council, civilian ships are allowed to install and possess at most a "universal point defense integrated air defense system (gardian)". That is, the anti-missile and close-in defense laser cannons on the frigate. But the group of pirates in front of them, One-third of the cruiser-class battleships are equipped with main guns! And there is also a fully equipped Batarian Dreadnought-class battleship!
This just shows. Standing behind this group of pirates is the Batarian Empire.
On the Star Alliance flagship "Yanjing" cruiser, General Yang stood directly in front of the electronic map, lowering his head and thinking. In front of him is the array command channel, and behind him is a middle-aged female adjutant - Anne would definitely recognize it if she were here. This person is her old acquaintance - Captain Leona.
Seeing the dreadnought ship appear, Lieutenant General Yang frowned. But he only thought about it for a few seconds, and then joked in the communication array, "Continue to shoot according to the list! Don't pay attention to that big, stupid thing! ... The Batarian-made battleship, I doubt it can even connect us Even the cargo ships can’t be defeated!”
The general's joke caused a mixture of male and female laughter to fill the channel. Someone even whistled. The cruiser captains obeyed his order, directly ignored the Dreadnought-class battleship, returned to the targets assigned by the computer, and named the cruisers equipped with main guns one by one! However, what they didn't know was that after Lieutenant General Yang closed all the channels, one of them was left alone.
"General?" The channel is open but no order has been received. A female voice of confusion came from inside. Hearing this voice, Captain Leona behind the general raised her eyebrows.
"Ahem, I... need you to move to the DF4 position. Do you... understand what I mean?" At this moment, Lieutenant General Yang put away all his personal emotions. He stated his request clearly. Leona, who was standing behind him, looked increasingly weird.
"I understand! Give the order, General!" the woman replied without hesitation.
After hearing the woman's answer. Lieutenant General Yang's rock-like face twitched slightly. He pressed the main switch and said to the entire fleet, "All of them! A+4, switch!" Following his order, the entire rhombus fleet began to rotate clockwise...four times in a row...every battleship moved. In the new position, a new diamond-shaped distribution was reshaped - among them, a slightly new-looking warship replaced the previous one and came to the center of the diamond and the most forward arrow position!
"Be careful! Cynthia..." These were the last words Lieutenant General Yang said to the battleship in this battle.
"Bang~!" Just as the Lieutenant General closed the channel, the flagship beneath the two men shook slightly. They looked up and saw a large ball of blue light splashing out of the porthole, but the projectile that passed by had disappeared.
"I remember." Seeing Lieutenant General Yang looking out the window expressionlessly, his adjutant Captain Leona finally couldn't help but said, "Captain Cynthia seems to be your daughter?" In the diamond formation, everyone knew What is the position of df4! It is the keyhole to crack the diamond formation, so this position is also commonly known as the "impact point"...
"Yes! She is the pride of my life..." Lieutenant General Yang refocused his attention on the map in front of him, "Now let us continue working..."
Leona behind him opened her mouth, but ultimately did not say that sentence - General, how long has it been since you saw Captain Cynthia? Wouldn't you know...she's pregnant? !

After getting a little closer, the pirate cruisers finally had the power to fight back (only their miserable second-hand main guns were to blame!
But their attacks are numerous and not directed by a unified computer system. There is no threat to the fleet formation, which is a tight rhombus when viewed from the front and a conical formation pointing straight ahead when viewed from the side. It is as hard as a diamond!
Because the mass effect shields of all cruisers are stacked like fish scales, almost connecting the entire fleet into a whole! As long as the fire is not concentrated instantly, the projectiles fired by the cruiser's main gun can only form ricochet on the shield, and are unable to break through this thick kinetic energy barrier! Every second, seven or eight lines of fire are pointed straight at the cruiser group, but they can only stir up large swaths of blue light on the fleet's tapered shield! Nothing can do but look good!
Once a battleship is seriously damaged in this Star Alliance formation, it will immediately perform the "a+" conversion and move the damaged battleship to the rear... Therefore, as long as the battleship is not destroyed instantly, it can always survive, and it can still survive. Can continue shooting from behind!
The small number of Star Alliance navies form an organic whole by sharing the damage through joint shields! But the situation of the pirates was exactly the opposite. They dispersed into formations of twos and threes and fought separately. Every time the diamond-shaped battle formation lights up and flashes, one or two battleships from the pirates will be directly destroyed!
The Star Alliance actually doesn't attack the thick-skinned Dreadnoughts, but only picks the soft persimmons! It's so shameless! The pirates were so angry that their teeth were itching, and they just wished that their dreadnoughts could show off their power immediately! Return color!
The warships on both sides stopped within the firing range and poured artillery fire on each other crazily! The steel projectiles shuttled through the universe, weaving the space between them into an area of death! The small pirate warships that were originally swarming forward like a swarm of swarms, now found that there were artillery fire everywhere in front and behind. They immediately hated their parents for losing two legs and just wanted to escape from this airspace immediately! As a result, he ran into a group of naval frigates that were outflanking him from both sides!
*****
"They are just a mob! Guam, follow me! Let's go!" Lieutenant Muyu laughed loudly as he watched the small pirate warships fleeing like a flock of frightened birds. He piloted the "Taierzhuang" frigate to fine-tune the bow, and took the lead to dive towards the enemy ship group!
The frigates are all named after famous battles in human history, "Taierzhuang" and "Guam". These two unrelated battles have now turned into two blue-gray Star Alliance frigates, one behind the other. Gallop forward!
Lieutenant Muyu felt that as the battleship vibrated, his adrenaline began to surge! "We use tactic No. 4!" he shouted, completely locking the pirate ship in front of him that was trying to avoid in a panic! The hull was forcibly fine-tuned by the computer, and the next moment, the line of fire fired from the "Taierzhuang"'s main gun accurately hit the pirate ship in front! Its shield resisted for a while, and finally deflected the projectiles fired from the frigate's main gun before it shattered!
The flying projectile only took away a piece of the wing, leaving the main body of the ship unscathed! ...Just when the pirate ship was overjoyed and thought he had escaped!
From behind the "Taerzhuang", the well-hidden frigate "Guam" flashed out! The line of fire extending from the barrel directly penetrated the bridge of the pirate ship...
"Yeah!" the two captains yelled in the channel together! The frigate, which was hundreds of meters tall, was as agile as a fighter jet in their hands.
"Do you know? I have a new trick!" Muyu said quickly, and his ship rushed straight towards a pirate ship! At this time, the gun barrels of the two frigates were cooling down, and the captain of his partner ship hurriedly shouted, "Muyu, don't take risks! We still need ten seconds of cooling time!"
"Believe me! Watch the flanks for me!" Muyu closed the captain's channel with a punch. "My lovely crew! Where are you!"
"aye! aye!" The voices of more than fifty strong men roared in response from all over the frigate!
"Listen to my order..." Muyu shouted, and the "Taierzhuang" "tumbled" weirdly as if it had stumbled, and a line of fire passed over the top of the ship! He drove the boat and perfectly dodged the opponent's main gun fire! At this time, the position of "Taierzhuang" was already slightly lower than that of the opponent. Unexpectedly, the frigate simply turned over and turned the belly of the aircraft upward - the scene suddenly turned into a scene where the two sides were facing each other as they passed each other!
"What are you waiting for?! Shoot!"
As the wooden fish roared, the six close-range defense laser cannons installed on the belly of the machine fired six orange-red "light sabers" at the same time! The high-energy laser penetrated the opponent's kinetic energy barrier without any obstruction (the shield could only block kinetic energy projectiles, and the laser cut through the same position on the opponent's belly one after another! The high-energy laser broke open and burned the armor, tearing open the belly of the aircraft. Ignite the Mass Effect Core... and disembowel that pirate ship!!!
Originally used to protect the fragile belly of the frigate, six of the eight laser cannons were installed in the belly direction, but they became Muyu's deadly weapon!
"How is it? How is it!" Muyu shouted in the channel, "I call this 'Jack the Ripper'!"
"You're a lunatic!" the captain of the fleet ship complained crazily, "Sure enough, people become perverted as soon as they get married!!!"
