Whether the White Temple responds to Terra's transfer order is no longer a problem. The problem is that the White Temple is now a bit awkward. Originally, most of the companies in the White Temple were outside. If you want to support Crimson Fist, you have to devote all your troops and may even transfer some of the companies back.
But for Soshiyan, no battlefield can be moved away now, and the cathedral itself is very nervous. If Ruizha takes away the White Holy Cathedral company, it may have a great impact on defense. Fortunately, this transfer order was not only sent to the White Holy Cathedral, but also sent to more than ten battle groups such as the Red Angel, Blood Drinker, Storm Lord, etc. This is also a feature of the high lord's transfer order. They knew that it was difficult for Astarte to use, so many battle groups were notified at one time. Even if one battle group only had one company, it would be a considerable force. As for whether so many battle groups would cause command problems, it was not their concern.
In this case, Soshiyan could only let Alash accept Terra's order and take the existing company to the Rocky Star Zone for support. Fortunately, this matter will not be urgent for a while, because other support troops are slower and they have to gather in a fortress world in the adjacent star zone before reinforcement together. Otherwise, it will be easy to fight a fuel-added battle, so Alash still has time to rest and prepare. This time, because he is a helper, the White Temple only needs to bring some ships, and the auxiliary troops do not need to be brought.
But after a while, Soshiyang suddenly realized that he had encountered something he had not encountered for a long time since becoming the commander of the war.
No one at hand!
Because there is no White Temple, then only the Astral Knights are supported by the only Astral Knights. So what is the current situation of the Astral Knights?
The Second Company, the Sixth Company, the Seventh Company, the Eighth Company, and the Tenth Company fought in the Cathedral, the Fourth Company, the Fifth Company and the Ninth Company fought in the Riza War Zone, and the Secretly formed Sabreen went to the Griffin War Zone. In other words, the only companies that Soshiyan could mobilize at hand are the first Company, the Third Company and the Eleventh Company.
Three companies may be quite a force for ordinary battle groups, but in Soshiyang's opinion, this is really not enough to plug the teeth. Even though the number of these companies is more than normal, especially the Eleventh Company. After years of expansion of enrollment, there are now 248 people, but this is still far from enough.
But there is no way, a clever woman can cook without rice. Soshiyang's power can do many things, but he cannot make a big difference in the living person.
In fact, he knew very well that when he went to Orps this time, the power of the empire could only be a supporting role. After seeing the extraordinary ship strength of the Deadly Feared Ship, Soshiyan already understood that unless the Empire had a particularly large numerical advantage, it was almost impossible for the Empire to defeat a fleet of Deadly Feared Fleet. He went to Orps mainly to use the power of the Skinning Temple and the Bone Dynasty. The reason why he cared so much about the troops was mainly because the high lords buried nails.
This time I asked Soshiyang to support me, but I deliberately ignored one thing, that is, who will listen to me.
Logically speaking, as reinforcements, they should have taken the Governor of the Star Zone as the main commander after they went there. But in fact, both Minotao and the Knight of the Star Zone have unusual political identities. The Minotao War Chapter is the personal soldier of the Chief of the Internal Affairs, and Soshiyan, the commander of the Knight of the Star Zone, has the senior honorary title of Chief of the Governor of the Star Zone. None of them can beat the Governor of the Star Zone, but Soshiyan cannot command Minotao because he is not the expedition commander appointed by Terra, which seems a bit in a mess, but politics is often hidden in these twists and turns.
If he could not even make up for his word, Soshiyang really had no confidence in this battle, so he had to show the strength of the Astral Knights in order to suppress those dissatisfied voices and get the highest command - this is also the reason why the empire is frequently passive in strategy, and even the most basic things like military command must be determined by on-the-spot struggle.
The battle of World Engine was a mess and was also related to this. Everyone had their own ideas, and in the end, each group did their own way, causing huge losses.
Finally, after a inventory, there were only 420 soldiers who were able to take to the Orps Expedition. Yes, according to the size of the Holy Book, there were only four companies, because the third company and the first company could not even take them away. After all, someone would have to preside over the battle group monastery fortress of the Nesson Galaxy.
Since he arrived at the Nasen Galaxy, he has rarely fought such a difficult battle. Whether it is the Pao Shang Star, the Great Vortex, or the war in the Grand Diocese, he has thousands of space Marines under his command. This time he went to Orps, it may be that there were really a situation where there were few soldiers and generals.
But there is nothing we can do about this. If there are many people, there are many people, and if there are few people, you can only use the style of playing with few people.
In addition to personnel, the fleet also shrank severely. Some ships were divided into the cathedral. The company that went to the support of Reza also took away some ships. The White Temple had to take away some of its own ships. After a while, there were only 36 warships that Soshiyan could use. Among them, the main battleships were not counted as Avesta and Randall. There were 12 total ships, namely the Styx heavy cruiser Death Hunter, the Mars battlecruiser Mars descendants, and the Pioneer-class strike cruiser Spark
Blue Ice, Pluto-class heavy cruiser Unbound Soul, revenge-class large cruisers Black Frost and Red Blood, and five Moon-class cruisers, among which Death Hunter is a new ship. Shortly after Soshiyan returned to Nassen, the fourth Styx class transformed from the Cardinal provided by Huangquan Eight. The five Moon-class cruisers were completed by Nassen IV and Nassen V after Soshiyan returned to Nassen from the Catholic Diocese. They were originally intended to be sent to the Catholic Diocese, but now it seems that they are not good.
However, the three Moon-class ships built by Nassen V have just been completed, and some internal equipment has not been completely completed and have not been tested, so it will take some time.
In addition, Ulanhudana also has newly completed ships, including 1 battleship and 3 heavy cruisers. This is also the first time that Ulanhuda's new dock has built a super-large battleship after the expansion of its new dock, but they have only just been removed from the ship and it will take time to follow-up work.
Soshiyan knew that time was tight and the fearful deceased might launch new attacks at any time, but now the situation was like this, and he could only wait a little longer, wait for the ship and wait for people, and the troops dispatched by Terra would not arrive so quickly. Now he could only send some representatives to do some preliminary preparations and see how the situation was in the area that had not yet fallen.
In fact, he also thought about asking for help from Lucai, but the place in Orps is too remote. Even Soshiyan gave many attractive conditions and judged it as difficult to make a profit. In addition, facing a high-risk enemy like the fear of the deceased, even the Great Sori's Alliance refused to do this business. This is also a big problem for merchants. When it is unprofitable, they will not talk about any relationship.
If you can't borrow external forces, then do it yourself. Soshiyang made up his mind. No matter what trick the culprit of the war in heaven is, he must meet him well for a while. Anyway, this is a matter of time!
But just as he was actively preparing for the battle, an unexpected surprise occurred.
Chapter completed!
