Chapter 2852: Greed as bait

"I don't quite understand, why are you so sure that Tyron's speed will definitely be slower than the Imperial ships? I see that their biological ships seem to be very fast and flexible, too."
"Brother Malakin, you don't know. According to the information, Tyrons cannot sail through subspace jumps. They rely on a unique pilot worm ship, which I will call the narwhal ship."
While introducing the image, Soshiyang slowly appeared on the top of the imager. Soshiyang did not explain how this picture came about. Everyone defaulted to being captured by the reconnaissance ship. But in fact, the information of this biological ship came from the Spirit race, and humans who had contacted Tyron were relatively "less" in contact with Tyron at present cannot be said to be ignorant of the navigation mode of the Tyron fleet, but they can only say that they don't know much.
"... By using monofilament spikes gathered along the head of the narwhal ship, the narwhal ship can interpret a wide-spectrum gravity signal in a large range and detect the existence of distant galaxies. Then this biological ship can use the galaxy's gravity in some way to create a compressed space corridor. Through this corridor, the Tyron's ship can quickly move to another galaxy. Although this is slower than normal subspace, it is acceptable. However, when approaching the galaxy, the powerful and chaotic gravity of the galaxy itself will interfere with the keen senses of the narwhal ship. Therefore, once it is about to arrive at the galaxy, the Tyron fleet can no longer use the narwhal ship's capabilities, but must "go" over. This characteristic is the key to our dealings with them!"
After hearing Soshyan introduce the interstellar navigation method of the Tyron Zerg, the company commanders were talking a lot. Malakin looked at him thoughtfully and whispered to himself:
"Brother Soshyan is really familiar with Tyron, and he even knows the speed and habits of movement..."
Soshiyan heard it, but he could only pretend that he didn't hear it. Although this was a bit of an ostrich mentality, there was no better choice.
He wasn't sure what development would be if some things were clearly revealed.
"Then why not execute the extinction orders on these two worlds from the beginning? Instead, let Tyron absorb them first?"
Soon Seth's words diverted Soshyan's attention, he explained:
"During the Great Vortex Expedition, I heard a general from Katachang tell their story. In Katachang there is a unique beast called Katachang. It is a kind of thing with long hair, slender arms and a poisonous hook tail. It can travel through the high-rise jungle like the wind. It likes to steal items from residents' homes. It is extremely cunning, agile and greedy, and even a subtle breathing can be captured. So the Katachang people used their characteristics to create a small trap. They buried a jar with a small mouth and a large belly in the ground, revealing a hole.
It's great enough that this beast put his hand in, and then put the fruit he likes to eat in. When these beasts find it, they will reach in and dig it out. But as long as they hold the fruit, their hands will not be pulled out. Their greedy personality makes them not easily give up what they have, so they will become anxious and lower their vigilance. The Katachang people can shoot them with poisonous arrows in the dark, peel them off when they are unconscious, and pry open their brains. It is said that oil pouring the brain is a famous dish of Katachang, and they must be a dying sac."
After hearing this, Seth nodded suddenly and smiled.
"Hahaha, so that's it. Tyron is indeed quite similar to Tyron. They will never give up what they have to their mouths. Those two worlds are the fruits you put in your brother, and those galaxies are jars. Tyron's speed in the galaxy is very slow, and even if you find out, you won't have time to run away!"
"In fact, greed is the real bait."
"How many troops do you need to arrange in the Winoch Galaxy? The defense pressure here is too great, especially during the time the fleet has left."
When Andal spoke, the sounds around him became quiet, not because he had a lot of prestige, but because his appearance made some people feel embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Although before the meeting, Soshiyan had introduced Andal and his Tiger Claws to several commanders, or in other words, there was no need to introduce them. He, Malakin and Metlus were both old acquaintances. When they saw this former tenth company commander of Star Claw, they were both shocked and surprised. They also knew that Andal had gone to Death Watch to serve, but they did not know that the other party ran back during the Great Vortex Expedition. Until Soshiyan talked about this and explained that Andal was sensitive at the time and was not convenient to expose it.
However, what made the two of them even more unacceptable was that Andal actually picked up the name of Tiger Claws. Andal just told them that his goal was to restore his former honor, and the blood of countless martyrs in Star Claws should not be defiled by a traitor of Huron.
Although Malakin and Metlus reluctantly accepted this in Soshyan's reunion, Soshyan knew very well that the two did not like Andal.
Perhaps because Andal's existence is like a signal, always reminding people around that the tragic aftermath of the Badabu War has not yet dissipated, which is an old story that the cryers and the Mantis Warriors who have participated in the war are unwilling to mention.
"Considering the pressure of this ground defense operation, I personally believe that at least 1,500 Space Marines and 1 million ground troops will need to cooperate with all local armed militias and temporary fortifications to persist until the main fleet returns."
Currently, the total strength of the four regiments is more than 3,500. Soshiyan's deployment is equivalent to placing half of the forces on the Winoch Galaxy system, but there is no pressure on his face.
Andal was silent for a moment and turned to Malakin.
"Captain Marakin, you are the only commander here who has had experience in large-scale conflicts with Tyron. I want to hear your opinion."
Malakin, who has always been known for his gentleness, rarely appeared on his face, but he replied:
"If this force is just to defend one world... it shouldn't be a big problem, but the Winoxi system has three worlds. If they all have to defend, they may not be able to achieve their strength. In the past, I thought that Tyron creatures mainly won in numbers, but after they really fought, they realized that their giant creatures had extremely terrifying strength, which was the biggest threat. Those small creatures were just cannon fodder to attract firepower for the giant beasts."
"I don't plan to defend the three worlds."
Soshiyang knocked on the star map with a baton.
"Garden World Winoth III will be the core of defense. The feudal world Winoth V is not large in population. All of them will be withdrawn to the Garden World first, and then the Agricultural World Winoth IV. This planet is currently trapped in the quagmire of gene stealers. I will only withdraw from the normal residents of the planet and do not need to work hard to suppress the gene stealers there."
"Why?"
"If you want to make your prey struggle even harder, don't feed it some snacks first? Another task in our battle is to prevent the Tyron fleet from changing direction and attacking other parts of the Storm Star Domain. Gene Stealers are the beacons of Tyron's activities. Keep them so that Tyron will spare no effort to invest his strength in this abundant galaxy."
"What about Winoch V?"
Soshyan smiled meaningfully and gently tapped the position of the planet with the command center.
"Give Tyron a little surprise."
Malakin immediately thought of something and nodded.
Chapter completed!
