After a brief exchange with the doctor, Chu Jungui cut off the communication. The doctor is very busy, even busier now, and doesn’t have much time to chat. In fact, there is no need to consider the issue of stance. Chu Jungui's father is from the dynasty and his grandfather is from the dynasty. He will naturally side with the dynasty. This is a matter of principle. On the other hand, the community did not give Chu Jun a chance to return. The fleet had come twice, and the seeds of hatred had already been sown.
Chu Jungui called McMillan again and asked at the beginning: "Do you still want 4 million prisoners?"
"The Federation doesn't want it."
"That's 3.5 million."
"You can keep it."
"I have no food, and they will all starve starting tomorrow."
McMillan took a deep look at Chu Jungui and said, "You are not in compliance with the interstellar war convention."
"I didn't sign the convention."
MacMillan was both angry and funny. The war convention was drawn up hundreds of years ago by the three major forces and a dozen scattered countries. Light Years is now considered a semi-independent force. It cannot even be called a country. How can anyone sign the convention? qualifications?
After all, McMillan was a big shot and didn't say "you don't deserve it".
Chu Jungui and McMillan discussed the issue of prisoners of war for a while, but to no avail. The old fox was convinced that Chu Jungui would not really massacre the prisoners of war, so he did not relent. Besides, those prisoners of war did not belong to McMillan's country and could not threaten him. Chu Jungui also knew that the community would not stop the war now.
In some small and insignificant places, McMillan was willing to help Chu Jungui, but when it came to really big things, such as exchanging key equipment and technology for prisoners, he wouldn't agree to anything. The two argued for a long time without any results, so the topic turned to real dreams.
"I heard that something strange happened in the real dream?" McMillan asked.
"Shouldn't this be the question I'm asking you? Do you think Lightyear's research capabilities can be stronger than those of the entire community?"
McMillan shook his head and said: "We lack the top scientists here, just like Zero, so research progress has stagnated. However, I have always had a feeling in my heart recently, and I want to escape far away, or even leave this place. galaxy."
Chu Jungui was a little strange. If nothing else happened, McMillan should have benefited a lot from the last real dream, at least no less than himself. In other words, McMillan now also has inhuman abilities. It would be impossible to kill him without an army. However, MacMillan is a big shot in the community. If you want to use the army to kill him, it is equivalent to a war with the community. People like this should not be suspicious. Chu Jungui himself had no sense of danger. In fact, he had no such thing as intuition as a test subject.
The two exchanged some research data, and then McMillan revealed the real purpose. He wanted Chu Jungui to communicate with the doctor and see the progress there. Both sides have a tacit agreement not to mention the war. Now that the trend of the war is no longer under their control, the community will definitely not let Chu Jungui go, and Chu Jungui may not let the community go.
After finishing the communication, Chu Jungui contacted Chen Er from the dynasty again. This time he asked for battle armor, 5 million sets!
Chen Er was initially shocked by the huge number, but finally felt relieved after hearing the specific requirements. Chu Jun’s heart. What Chu Jungui wants is just the most basic armor, which only needs auxiliary power and a life support system. The armor that any starship crew member will be issued in school is better than what Chu Jungui wants. Dynasty has quite a lot of inventory, many of which are old items from hundreds of years ago and can be remade. According to the dynasty's account books, the value of this part of the armor is not much higher than scrap, and their number is not large. There are 3 million sets with a production date of more than 100 years.
Chen Er immediately reported it, and it was approved half an hour later. Five million sets of armor were eventually converted into two heavy cruisers. Chu Jungui did not hesitate and agreed to the condition on the spot, and then the two heavy patrol ships started to jump towards the dynasty.
The total price of 5 million sets of battle armor, even if it is a basic model, is more than 50 billion, which is much more expensive than the price of two heavy cruisers. However, these armors are war preparation materials for the dynasty. To put it bluntly, they are redundant inventory. The starships are what the dynasty urgently needs most, so they are given a considerable discount. Chu Jungui is actually not at a loss. Four of Lightyear's current 10 heavy cruisers require crews to drive them. They were actually built specifically for the dynasty. Even with the Mist Tribe in hand, Chu Jungui didn't think he could defeat the two behemoths of the Federation and the Community on his own, not even one of them. At this time, it is crucial to give the dynasty a breather.
Switching to the battle armor, Chu Jungui exchanged for another batch of rare alloys. These high-end alloys could not be produced in light years at present. The price of the exchange was two other heavy cruisers.
Both sides of the transaction with the Dynasty were very satisfied. Chen Er shipped the goods in the fastest way. The armor and supplies would arrive at Lightyear in a few days. Lightyear's four heavy cruisers jumped directly to the front line. The Dynasty fleet immediately received the goods. will go to the battlefield. For the current dynasty, the combat power of the four heavy cruisers is already extremely valuable. After all, the dynasty has already overwhelmed almost all the reserve teams.
Chu Jungui waited for a few days. After the armor arrived, he came to the space station where the prisoners of war were detained and began to speak to the first batch of prisoners of war. This group of prisoners of war are all from the Harvey Republic. They were captured during the first attack on Lightyear, which is nearly a year ago.
Chu Jungui's voice echoed in the space station, and his first words were: "Do you want to go home?"
Countless faces that were originally numb lifted up and looked upward. But there was only the ceiling and bright lights above the head, and nothing else could be seen. The prisoners began to whisper to each other, and soon the sound was booming and echoing. They have stayed here for too long. They eat by throwing them off their heads and can only excrete on the spot. They need to be flushed with water once a day and take a shower to clean up the stains. There was no news from the outside world, no entertainment, and each person only had a piece of ground just big enough to lie down on. I have been living like this for almost a year, and a normal person would go crazy. The reason why they are not crazy is that the air they breathe every day contains trace amounts of narcotic drugs, which suppresses mood swings.
Now hearing the words "go home", everyone seems to see a ray of light in the darkness!
However, Chu Jungui's second sentence was: "I planned to send you back, but your president refused to redeem you."
In the blink of an eye, the crowd who had experienced a huge psychological gap erupted in anger and filial piety, like a mountain roaring and a tsunami!
Chu Jungui smiled slightly, which was expected. The president exercises high-pressure rule within the republic and suppresses all dissidents. With the support of other member countries of the Community, his rule is quite solid. However, not hearing the opposition does not mean that there is no opposition, it is just buried in the heart. Now that these prisoners of war were in a desperate situation and hearing that they had been abandoned, their anger naturally erupted like a volcano.
Chu Jungui's third sentence was: "But I am still prepared to send you back, but in another way."
