Chapter 434 Calculation
Havelott looked gloomy.
He really didn't expect that he didn't get any benefits, but he actually became the captain of the transport team.
Although he still doesn't think that the people in the pirate world can fight against his eight-star pirate group, but...
The four pirate groups that tried to intercept had already been destroyed. Even if he still went on and finally arrived, the One-Eyed Pirate Group had already succeeded in advance, so his trip would still be in vain.
Because of this failure, I am afraid that I will always be a laughing stock in the alliance.
This won’t do!!!
We must think of a solution!
"Captain, I have an idea!"
"Say!"
Just when Havelot couldn't think of any ideas, the deputy captain next to him spoke up.
"The seventh iron rule of the alliance!"
Ok?
The seventh iron rule of the alliance?
Havilot was stunned at first, then his eyes widened.
Because he had remembered what the seventh iron rule of the alliance was.
Simply put, although the alliance prohibits internal conquests, it also leaves each force with a channel to resolve conflicts.
That is, the right to attack on a single day.
If the conflict between the two pirate groups has reached a stage where it cannot be reconciled.
Then, one of the parties can exercise the right of a single attack.
Under the alliance rules, attack the home planet of another pirate group for one day.
If the enemy is captured, the attacker will be granted the right to loot without causing harm for three days within the enemy's home planet, which means that except for killing, all other looting and smashing are allowed.
But if it fails.
Then all personnel and warships involved in the attack will be handed over to the defending party as compensation.
At the same time, in all post-war contacts between the two sides, past conflicts must not be used to provoke any incidents.
There are two additional rules, which are...
The first rule is that no matter whether he is on the attacking or defending side, he must not allow his affiliated pirate groups to participate.
The second rule is that one can only initiate a one-day attack right against pirate groups of the same star level as oneself or higher star level, but cannot initiate it against pirate groups of lower star level than oneself.
"You want me to take advantage of this opportunity to seize the home planet of the One-Eyed Pirates?"
"But even if half of them go on an expedition, it won't be easy to capture their lair within a day!"
Yes, it's not easy.
Why is one day emphasized in the league's rules?
Because this is a very difficult thing in itself. After all, although the Alliance has set this rule, it does not want to see a bunch of pirate groups exercising this right within the Alliance all day long.
And precisely because it is too difficult, any pirate group that actually exercises this right is basically the kind that have a deep hatred for the other side.
Otherwise, who would be willing to take such a big risk?
"Captain, I don't mean for you to really attack the One-Eyed Pirates' lair!"
"Then what do you mean?"
Havilot frowned.
"It's very simple. We can calculate how long it will take the One-Eyed Pirates to reach the target planet. If they turn back immediately, how long will it take them to reach their home base!"
"Then, we can strike a balance. For example, when they have only one month left to reach their goal and are two years away from our home, we can immediately apply for alliance conflict arbitration and declare that we will exercise the right to attack in one day, and set the time for two years."
"At this time, the One-Eyed Pirates have no choice but to turn back immediately. Otherwise, if their home planet is breached, even if they gain a lot on the target planet, I'm afraid they will lose everything. Even the entire One-Eyed Pirates will have to maintain decline for at least a few hundred years from now on."
"As for the Poison Wolf Pirates, we will also find a pirate group with the same seven stars and conflicts with them, and use the same method to operate on them."
"Then, when the two pirate groups turn back, we..."
Hey!
When the deputy head of the group said this, he smiled obscenely.
"So, they all left. Even though we will be half a year late, we will still be ahead in the end, right?"
"However, you have taken the lead in the target planet, but how do you deal with the right to attack on a single day?"
Havelot asked another question.
"This is easy. There is no explicit stipulation in the alliance rules that the attacker must be present during the attack!"
"As for the compensation for defeat, the regulations clearly state that the compensation is for the personnel and warships involved in the attack, but we didn't send anyone to attack, so naturally we don't have to pay anything!"
Havilot's eyes widened.
Can you still play like this?
He really is worthy of being my deputy captain and the group's chief military advisor!
"Okay, let's do it. Go and arrange it immediately!"
"Understood, leader!"
------
three days later.
The Loto Pirates requested arbitration of the conflict from the Alliance.
Although the conflict between these two eight-star pirate groups is well known to everyone.
But no one expected that the Loto Pirates would actually propose conflict arbitration and even apply for the right to exercise a single-day attack, and the time is...
Two years later!
According to the calculations of Lot's men, it would take exactly two years for the One-Eyed Pirates to return to their lair.
And now, it is still one year away from the pirate world.
As for the Loto Pirates, they are one and a half years away from the pirate world.
So, at this time, when the One-Eyed Pirate turned back and was still half a year away from his old nest, the Lot Pirates just arrived in the pirate world.
By that time, even if the One-Eyed Pirates discovered that it was a trap and wanted to turn back.
It’s too late!
After all, at that time, the distance between him and the pirate world would take two and a half years of sailing.
Daylily, it’s already cold.
On the other hand, the one-eyed pirate was extremely confused when he received the news from the alliance headquarters.
What's going on?
What's wrong with that guy Havelot all of a sudden?
Although he cursed the other party harshly, he had to go back.
After all, this is where my home is. If I lose it...
The entire One-Eyed Pirate Group is likely to decline from now on, and this is absolutely not allowed!
Of course, as an eight-star pirate group, even if he wants to retreat in the middle of a battle, he doesn't need to explain anything to a seven-star pirate group.
The Poison Dragon Pirates just said a word and then turned around with their fleet.
Only a group of executives from the Poison Dragon Pirates were left, staring at each other in bewilderment.
However, just over a month later.
The Poison Dragon Pirates received the same treatment.
Because there is also a Seven Star Pirates Group, and they also exercised the right to attack the Poison Dragon Pirates in one day.
It's numb, everyone is numb.
Although I feel a little entangled, I can come back to the pirate world in a few years, but my old nest...
Once it’s gone, it’s really gone!
Never mind, since the One-Eyed Pirates have already fled, then...
Let’s retreat too!
First take care of the things in the old nest, then make another trip!
Afterwards, the huge fleet of the Poison Dragon Pirates also changed direction and headed in the direction they came from.
