The two armed merchant ships quickly prepared for attack, but did not blindly take off.
Both captains were very experienced and first asked the ground if there was any chance of taking off.
There was no formal reply at all from the ground, but someone shouted at the top of their lungs, "The firepower is fierce, be careful!"
This wave of attacks was indeed too violent and sudden.
A total of six starships not only attacked five fortresses, but also knocked out the tower.
The tower is not only responsible for commanding takeoffs and landings, but it is also the communication center of the planet and can send information to the outside.
The defense of the tower was not bad, but it was not a war fortress after all. It was riddled with holes immediately and eventually fell to the ground.
Five fortresses are much more difficult to defeat, especially since they are well prepared and their protection strength is not low at the beginning, but then increases rapidly after being attacked.
However, it was of no use after all. Under Xiaohu's control, the four small ships dodge and attack flexibly.
In a short time, most of the firepower points were accurately removed one by one.
A fortress that has lost its firepower is like a lion that has lost its teeth, unable to launch a decent attack at all.
After fighting for about five minutes, a fortress burst into flames - this was caused by the explosion of ammunition.
It would be easier for six starships to deal with four fortresses.
As for those small firepower points, they simply cannot withstand random bombardment from naval guns.
The attack on the hospital also originated from this. The hospital has defensive firepower, but it is still not enough.
When Qu Jianlei realized that this was a hospital, he instructed Xiaohu to launch a continuous attack on the place.
It's not that he has a dark mind and thinks that attacking the hospital can show cruelty. The key hospital is one of the important buildings of this planet.
Not only are there medical staff and patients, but a lot of protective forces are also concentrated here.
Another important point is the starship repair shop. The freed warships also bombard the factory building indiscriminately.
Fortunately, Xingshi received the news in advance, and as a precaution, a starship to be repaired was transported away a day ago.
There are also some starships with minor malfunctions that flew away on their own, and it is unlikely that a starship will come to repair them in the short term.
However, even so, the various maintenance equipment that were destroyed in the repair shop were enough to make Sanhe Company jump in pain.
Qu Jianlei did not notice the two starships in the underground shipyard at first. Such shipyards are generally relatively secretive.
But regardless of any starship, as soon as it is activated, it will emit energy fluctuations.
The concealment facilities in the shipyard are relatively good, and with the bombardment going on outside, this energy fluctuation is not very noticeable.
However, although the two armed merchant ships did not take off, they continued to raise their energy shields.
In this way, the strong energy fluctuations could no longer be hidden from Qu Jianlei.
Just as some of the current combat power could be mobilized, he decisively ordered, "Ship 8384, attack the energy fluctuations on the surface!"
As soon as the target of the 8384 ship was transferred, the armed merchant ships in the shipyard knew that they had been discovered, and decisively ordered to improve the defense of the shipyard.
However, in order to prevent the shipyard from being discovered, they had set the energy shield too low, and now it was too late to raise it.
Concealment and defensive power cannot be achieved at the same time, and one must always be sacrificed.
Most of the shipyard collapsed under a round of artillery fire.
Fortunately, the protective shields of the two armed merchant ships have been raised and they are hiding deep in the shipyard, so they are still safe for the time being.
However, the passage to the sky was completely blocked, and if you wanted to break out, you would have to brave intense firepower.
No one has the courage to make such a decision. The opponent's firepower is really extraordinary.
Just as the second fort was breached, the other forts signaled "surrender".
At the same time, all firepower points stopped shooting, but the energy protection was not reduced.
This is also common practice, and it does not mean that they have to fight stubbornly. They are just worried that the other party will not accept surrender and must protect themselves.
Seeing this, Qu Jianlei spared the remaining three fortresses and concentrated his firepower to attack other places.
Soon, "surrender" signals were flashed everywhere and counterattacks stopped.
Ship 8384 also flashed its signal, meaning "only unconditional surrender will be accepted"!
For the people of Sanhe, the meat is on the chopping block now, no one dares to resist, and the lively battlefield suddenly fell silent.
The four small attack ships returned to the starship to replenish energy and ammunition, and Qu Jianlei opened the public channel again.
"Those two armed merchant ships...why don't you stop quickly?"
"Okay, stop the car, stop the car right away," a voice came from the other side, sounding a bit crying.
This wave of attacks came quickly and violently. Although Sanhe Company was well prepared, it was still defeated.
The power of the two armed merchant ships slowly stopped, and the crew members ran out in a swarm. Only two captains did not disembark.
At this time, it is more dangerous for people in the merchant ship. It is better to hide in the open area for safety.
Qu Jianlei saw that the other party had executed it thoroughly and spoke out again.
"I need 500 million silver notes and take away these two merchant ships... It won't be so cheap next time."
He didn't bother to say anything about the cause and effect. The characteristics of the 8384 ship were so obvious that he didn't need to explain more.
However, the other party said, "Sir, please listen to our explanation about this matter..."
"No need to explain," Qu Jianlei interrupted the other party coldly, "We are not discussing, but informing you!"
To tell the truth, the other party knew that he had issued the asylum card and still wanted to coerce him... This was enough.
As for the reason, he doesn't want to hear it at all - I only know that you are provocatively provoking.
In fact, Sanhe people can really list some reasons, which can even be said to be a last resort.
Otherwise, they would not dare to ignore the amulet issued by a supreme team.
These reasons may not necessarily convince the other party, but they can objectively reduce responsibilities and achieve relatively better results.
However, people didn't listen at all, which was very helpless.
This person does not dare to forcefully defend himself. Facing the attack of the supreme team, the consequences of ignorance will be serious.
But there was one thing he still wanted to explain, "Sir, having an armed merchant ship is not Sanhe's asset."
"What does this have to do with me!" Qu Jianlei said simply, "The starship you forcibly seized is the asset of Sanhe?"
"Stop talking nonsense, within half an hour, I want to see 500 million banknotes!"
"Sir, we really don't have so many banknotes," the person on the other side almost cried, "This is just a place to rest!"
This is true. Banknotes are hard currency in the asteroid belt, but there is no need to prepare so many.
There is no shortage of anything except minerals here, and it is useless no matter how much money you have.
Qu Jianlei snorted coldly when he heard this, "Then everyone, come out, we will destroy everything here!"
Destroying things when you can't get money is not his invention, nor is it just a star thief's patent.
In the asteroid belt, there are many forces doing this.
Although destroying the opponent's means of production and livelihood is harmful to others, it is not beneficial to oneself, but the point here is that "people cannot stand firm if they are not ruthless."
And from a competitive perspective, the opponent's loss is to enhance one's own competitiveness. This is how jungle society is originally.
But this requirement really cost Sanhe Company its life.
The person on the other side didn't care much and shouted directly on the public channel, "Sir, spare our lives, we will die!"
It is indeed mortal. Although Tears is a large star, it does not even have an atmosphere on the surface!
As the center of Sanhe and a place for rest, the infrastructure is complete.
Just think about Lanyun Market, where even the air can be sold for money!
Once all the facilities in Sanhe are destroyed, how will so many people survive? I'm afraid there won't be enough oxygen generators.
"What does your life and death have to do with us?" the paranoid said coldly.
"If you run out now, you can at least hold on until the oxygen generator is used up. If you don't agree, you will die soon!"
The other party had an urgent discussion and came up with a compromise suggestion: Would it be better to pay as much as possible first?
Sanhe's cash in the tear planet is about 80 million, and there are energy blocks worth more than 90 million.
This is the meaning of the center - there must be a certain amount of energy reserves to prepare for the unexpected needs of a certain mine.
These banknotes can be delivered immediately, but the energy blocks... can only take out 70 million, so they must keep what they need for survival.
In other words, the other party is willing to pay 150 million, and the remaining 350 million... can only be issued as an IOU.
Of course, whether the remaining money can be obtained depends on the strength of Rhodiola’s team.
Of course Qu Jianlei also knew this, so he agreed without hesitation.
Not to mention whether he will have time to collect the debt in the future, but if he dares not agree now, he will be looked down upon!
However, the matter could not just be let go. After receiving the IOU, he commanded the starship to destroy two more residences.
There is no other intention, just to vent my anger!
The matter of collecting the energy blocks was left to Hua Scorpion and Paranoid. The two of them held a large number of talismans and swept away the warehouse.
Then two starships grabbed two armed merchant ships and took off into the sky, disappearing soon after.
From the time they appeared to the time they left, it only took an hour in total. It could be said that they came and went like the wind.
The main reason why they move so quickly is that they are worried about being attacked from both inside and outside.
The whereabouts of Barron's team are still unknown, and the military has also stepped up its efforts to clean up the asteroid belt. It really can't wait long.
Even at Lanyun Market, Ship 8384 didn't stay long for the same reason.
Otherwise, Qu Jianlei would not let Sanhe Company go so easily.
However, he felt that he had let it go easily, but the people in Sanhe were jumping up and down in anger and cursing.
"I've never seen such a greedy guy. Two starships and five hundred million... He's even more of a star thief than a star thief!"
"It's really like this. Even if we blackmail others, we still have to pay the fee. He is openly robbing us!"
"You are really capable, don't vent your anger on us, or just wait a little longer until the military comes to coordinate!"
"Is our money so easy to grab? We have to make it known, and someone will always take care of him!"
"But... if you want to spread the news, you must at least repair the tower and communication equipment first!"
