Since the Taishan landed, diplomatic communication has also been transferred to the ship. After all, this is a military satellite communication line, which is faster and more confidential than a mobile phone.
"We are required by superiors to try to demonstrate our country's desire for peace, avoid giving this group of aliens and other countries in the world the impression that our country is warlike during this incident, and break the confidence of the people of country A in this interstellar diplomatic event. hegemonic behavior.
Specifically, you can pass on some of the information listed here to the count, but at the same time, you must ensure that Country A and the surrounding media reporters also know it. It is best to broadcast it live. "The lieutenant looked at the fax paper with a grimace, as if reading a book from heaven.
"What do you think we should do? I'm just a lieutenant."
"The boss didn't say anything about sending someone else here? An ambassador, special envoy or some other high-ranking diplomat?" Not to mention the lieutenant, Xu Siqi felt his scalp numb from all the twists and turns.
"No one will come for sure. Now this is a solo action by people from country A. I am just here as a member of the junior officer corps who conveyed the ceasefire request. Now it is definitely up to a few of us to handle this disruptive matter for him. ”
"I don't think this order means that we must get things done, but that we do it so that everyone knows about it." Su Qin saw the key point from it.
"The other thing I was originally worried about is that we have to take off soon. It seems that this will not happen. So why not, we just invite the count over for a meal."
"Eating? Can you hold any decent banquet here?" The lieutenant looked back at the cooking cart next to him.
"It's urgent. Just now, Lisa, I mean Captain Perot asked me to prepare a batch of lunch boxes for those media reporters. I think it's better to use the box lunches to treat the count. It happens to be placed with those media reporters. Anyway, this The aliens probably haven’t eaten anything good.”
Su Qin, the captain, made a decision and immediately took action.
"Wang Qinyun, don't put up the tent, don't put it up here. Put it up below, outside the protective cover. And the cooking truck, don't create fume pollution here, drive it under the gangplank and unfold it again."
"That's right. I'll send the invitation right away, including those senators, but I don't think they will come." Only then did the lieutenant finish checking Su Qin's thoughts.
"The few promises we are asked to make by the superiors may not be enough to impress those aliens, but they are enough to prove our attitude. Therefore, it is best to let a third party hear it when we say it. Of course, it is best to impress them."
"Sentinel! Inform Lisa, I mean Captain Perot, and I agree with both things she said."
Seeing everyone around him walking away, Xu Siqi came to Su Qin and said in a long voice. "E...wa..."
"you……"
Xu Siqi, who was wearing armor, slipped out of the protective shield with a whoosh. His armor was marked by the core of the Taishan's spacecraft, and he could enter and exit the Taishan's protective shield at will.
"Of course this requires us to sit down and talk, rather than start a war directly." Xu Siqi, as the highest-ranking officer present, had to appear, so he could only follow the professional drumbeat.
As for Su Qin, he didn't know if he was angry with Xu Siqi or if he really felt that it was necessary to hide his strength and not let the count know how many knights there were in his gang. He said that he would be on duty on the Taishan to prepare for battle. There was no such thing. Come down.
"Everything depends solely on the will of the gods." Count Togram was very surprised by that clear hint, and could only give a formulaic response for the time being.
He was very comfortable with having dinner together after the exchange was completed. He felt that it was in line with knightly etiquette, and he had no objection to the simple dishes. There are many kinds of human groups with different customs and situations in the galaxy. At this time, the emphasis is on the sense of ritual. .
In fact, what satisfied the Earl the most was that the other party did not treat them as real pirates exactly the same way as pirates.
"Speaking of gods, what should I call the one you are referring to?" After the group sat down at the largest table in the tent, the lieutenant looked around for four weeks and expressed satisfaction with the environment, so he continued to look for opportunities.
The table in the tent was the one that the Earl had brought out from inside the base building for negotiation. It had been pushed flush with the ground. Xu Siqi took Wang Qinyun to move it out and put it to use.
The only things left in the tent are folding dining tables with tables and chairs, all prepared by the detachment leader, and now they are basically full of people.
There are people watching the entrance to this tent, and the lieutenant specifically reminded that only those well-dressed people who look like famous reporters from major media are allowed in here.
"I think gods should have names, although we shouldn't use them in vain."
"God of Pirates!" Count Togram replied without thinking. "From the day he favored us, we called him this."
"It doesn't sound like it's been a long time?" Xu Siqi glanced at Lisa secretly and asked in his mind, does your awesome senator know this? People on TV have just started claiming that this god is God.
Lisa came to express her gratitude for the lunch, but the lieutenant stayed on the spot, saying she was keeping company.
Since the senators relied on their status and did not come to receive the lunch box, Lisa became the highest-ranking American official present and was quietly listening with her ears pricked up.
"No offense, do gods have names?" Xu Siqi decided to ask more clearly. No matter what kind of posture he wanted to put on, the ultimate goal was actually one thing.
Dig out the real alien civilizations behind these alien human groups and establish direct connections.
"You should know that gods rarely tell mortals their names, so it is indeed possible that we are serving the same god." Count Togram was not angry, but continued to answer calmly.
"In that case he should soon send you, or I, an oracle to stop the war between us."
"What if not?"
"Then no matter whether we serve the same god or not, war is the will of the god." Count Togram didn't seem as arrogant towards the noble knights who also wore armor as he did towards the civilians.
"Young man, don't you plan to return to Planet 4, sit on your throne, and communicate with your gods? I came to this planet, but there is a clear oracle. It can even be said that the city is waiting for you here. core."
As a fervent believer in the gods, the Earl was truly convinced of this.
"The food is here!" Wang Qinyun led several crew members of the Jade Waterbird in. She went to get the food in person, but now she was also wearing armor and only had a bottle of fermented bean curd and a bottle of Lao Ganma in her hands. , everything else was done by the crew of the Emerald Waterbird.
