After discovering the fact that the new human civilization may have allies, the skin of more than 20 big squids turned dark blue. At the beginning, the squid who vowed to make a bluff of the new human civilization also made a sound every once in a while.

Obviously, their mood is very bad, very bad. This color seems to be able to pollute the whole pool water.

However, it is extremely impolite to spit ink into the pool, just as in human civilization, spitting face-to-face into someone else's cup. For the time being, no squid has done so.

"Why did they show this card?"

"It should be... I don't want to go to war."

"Find out who their allies are?"

"It's hard! This starry sky is too complicated... There are many civilizations that are fictional. "

Of course, the Apollo civilization can continue to increase its military strength and continue its own strategic blackmail plan. They also have another war star, but this other war star is not directly controlled by their political force. If you ask for help, you will pay a great price.

Even, they can turn to the big forces in the rear... It's only a matter of minutes to crush the new human civilization.

But if there are too many legions in this starry sky and fight a decisive battle in advance, it will be completely cheaper for other big forces

So many civilizations are eyeing it. They want the great forces behind the Apollo civilization to be involved in it.!

"The patriarchal civilization will not agree."

"But if we withdraw directly, our political career will be over... We will bear the curse of being soft."

In this kind of civilization, the division between classes is very strict. It is easy to fall down and difficult to go up. And once you fall out of this position, it is likely to involve a series of subordinates behind, and someone may lose their lives.

They are still reluctant to fail directly.

One of the big squid suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "in fact, it doesn't necessarily bear the curse. We have won a big battle now... Cough, at least the people have begun to believe this victory. As long as we get more military achievements, even if we don't grab the war star, we won't bear the curse. "

"Even if we withdraw, we should blackmail them before we leave! The other party exposed his cards, indicating that he was unwilling to go to war directly. As long as we have enough booty, our position can still be maintained. "

That's true!

As long as they don't return empty handed, have enough achievements, and a reasonable excuse, there's no big problem with withdrawing troops.

"Then... Send them a signal of political consultation!"

……

Zhang Yuan spent almost all these days in nightmares. During the day, he had no mind to work. He wandered around the room restlessly all day, in a trance state. Every time I sleep, I have nightmares. After waking up suddenly, I found that I was still alive, so I patted my chest with palpitation.

The other party didn't reply, as if he fell into silence and didn't know what happened.

Sometimes, in order to sleep better, he will choose to take some sedative drugs to force sleep.

This is also a last resort, because the human nervous system has limits. We should have a good rest when we should rest, otherwise the working efficiency of the brain will be greatly reduced. If you are sleepy at the critical moment, it will be really troublesome

The soldiers in front have been on emergency alert to closely monitor the response of the enemy spacecraft to prevent a full-scale war at any time.

At present, there is no special news.

Seeing him fidgeting, Lin Xuanxuan sighed: "another day has passed... The planetary curvature engine has been completed a little."

Zhang Yuan also sighed: "yes, I don't know how many days to endure. I really hope these four years can pass quickly. "

"... you say, can you succeed?"

"I don't know."

This time, Zhang Yuan really didn't know and it was difficult to judge.

As for the condemnation statement after the ultimatum, it is a method that the high-level human beings have racked their brains to deliberately exaggerate their own war damage to test the other party's reaction

At present, the enemy did not attack immediately, which seems to be good news? Is it following the steps deliberately fabricated by human beings?

He looked up at the direction of departure of the Titan class spacecraft. A group of scientists such as Li Zhendong had left for many years.

As expected, the departure arrived at its destination a year or two ago.

The agreed assembly site is about 20 light-years away from here. I don't know what their situation is. They must be concerned about the front line and can't develop at ease.

At this time, Zhang Yuan received a short message from the captain's office: "the other party replied to the ultimatum and asked for political negotiations!"

When he saw this line of words, Zhang Yuan immediately put down his hanging heart, waved his arm fiercely, and even couldn't help turning up the corners of his mouth!

Since political negotiations are required, it shows that the other party's response is in line with expectations!

In short, the probability of peace negotiations is greater.

"What's the matter?" Lin Xuanxuan hurriedly asked.

"Ha ha! hot wire! Good news, I'll go out first! " Zhang Yuan picked her up and walked around the room. Then he put on his clothes and hurried out.

At this moment, the captain's room was full of people, and the captain's lady's face looked a little better than before. The captain of this term used the latest life extension technology, so his term of office was appropriately extended. The Scientific Council is considering extending its term of office again to adapt to the interstellar era represented by the four civilizations.

Seeing that all senior officials were here, the captain announced the short message sent by Apollo civilization to mankind.

“……”

Zhang Yuan frowned and read a series of words on the screen.

As expected, Apollo civilization will not withdraw troops directly. There is nothing so good in the world!

In its announcement, as in the past, it strongly condemned the false paper of new human civilization selling "additional color perception" and demanded compensation for amoeba points to a certain extent. Apollo civilization asked the new human civilization to execute the original interstellar court trial, compensate for the losses, and then withdraw its troops.

Of course, this is just an excuse for negotiations between the two sides.

Although it's still the same excuse, it's already one moment after another.

For more than 4000 amoeba points, humans do not have so many, and it is impossible to compensate.

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "Hey, I say fake papers here every day. In fact, not a word is fake! Get cheap and sell well! I knew I wouldn't sell this knowledge to this damn Apollo civilization. "

Diplomat Lao Yang shook his head: "if you don't sell it to this civilization, who will you sell it to? We can't predict. Maybe the same thing will happen if we sell it to another civilization. Alas, it's always a good choice to negotiate first. "

The captain said, "then let them first release their sincerity, withdraw the troops farther away, and then negotiate on the border. We'll talk about the specific conditions then! "

"This time, due to the ultimatum, we must take the initiative!"

"That's the truth."
