spn "The development of the situation has exceeded our expectations. Everyone, we must fight."

Although no further intelligence has come back, communications have been completely cut off for two days, and Prime Minister McBee insists that the situation has worsened.

Things that were originally expected to be a breeze have become complicated and tricky, and may even lead to a longer stalemate if not handled properly.

"Your Majesty, we have drawn up several plans according to your instructions."

Horn, the Minister of Defense of the Principality of Rank, also felt trembling in front of the Duke. The Iron-Blooded Prime Minister was actually angry now. A mere first-level civilization dared to challenge the dignity of a second-level civilization.[

In the Southwest Star Territory, there are quite a few such examples, but they are not just one first-level civilization fighting, but many first-level civilizations forming a group.

Just like the second largest enemy beside the principality now, besides the Longshan Empire, is the so-called 'Orion Alliance, headed by two countries at the pinnacle of first-level civilization.

This alliance is based on one of the four major spiral arms of the Milky Way, the Orion Arm.

The Orion Cantilever is also one of the spiral arms closest to the solar system. Of course, the so-called closeness is actually several light-years away. The diameter of the entire Milky Way is about ten thousand light-years. It can be imagined that the southwest star field of the Milky Way alone is

It's a full 20,000 to 30,000 light-years in diameter.

In Horn's opinion, this so-called Orion Alliance is just a name that has been attached to it randomly. Even if they dare to call it the Orion Alliance, it is the four major spiral arms of the Milky Way.

However, it is this Orion Alliance, with the support of a certain second-level civilization, relying on selling sovereignty and resources, etc., to continuously obtain strategic materials such as technology and warships, and its overall strength continues to rise. A dozen first-level civilizations are tied together.

It severely hindered the development of the Principality of Rank.

Many times Horn thought angrily that if the principality hadn't been dragged down by the Longshan Empire, these small countries would have been dealt with long ago.

Now, the Prime Minister is taking over the Lost Star Territory for the ten thousand-year foundation of the principality. Naturally, he actively supports it.

"The first method is to directly mobilize battleship units from the front line. Without affecting the battle situation, we can gradually mobilize more than 200 main battleships within a year, including no less than k battleships.

However, this approach carries great risks. Once our actions are informed by the enemy, the second-level civilization standing behind the Orion Alliance will definitely encourage them to increase their offensive efforts and send them more warships.

Hornedly said.

"Tell me about the second method."

Duke McBee also understands the feelings of his minister. The principality has not gone smoothly in recent years. It has been hindered by the Longshan Empire and these so-called small countries. Like several other second-level civilizations that have just been promoted, they are completely trapped.

In the quagmire of development.

"The second method is that we can secretly allocate a batch of main battleships from the battleship factory that have not yet left the factory. We have investigated and found that in the past year we have built more than 50 battleships and more than 60 cruisers. If we secretly

By allocating some of them, and then some from some local guard fleets in the country, we can also form a force with nearly a hundred battleships and more cruisers.

The biggest disadvantage of this method is that we can only gather half of the fleet within half a year, which takes a long time and is much slower than directly drawing from the front line, and the number of readily available warships is also smaller."

After Horn finished speaking, he waited for McBee's instructions.

After a while, Mike Bi said to several of his ministers, "Now the principality has reached its most critical moment, and we must use extraordinary methods to do extraordinary things.

I have an idea. I can transfer 30 more battleships from the family fleet. In addition, we can also transfer 40 battleships from the battleship factory and 30 battleships from various security fleets. In this way, we will have a fleet of more than one hundred battleships.

It is a medium-sized fleet with a total number of main battleships exceeding 200.

If such a force cannot win the Lost Star Territory, then we will lose this opportunity."[

Horn was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the Duke would once again decide to use the family fleet. Moreover, it would take a lot of courage to mobilize the local guard fleet. Otherwise, once a rebellion breaks out on a certain planet, it will be extremely terrifying.

Although the Republic of Korea has more than 500 battleships, plus cruisers, the main battleships total thousands, but they are basically towed on the border. Many battleships are destroyed every month, and they want to mobilize troops from the front line.

The Lost Star Territory, it is very likely that the Capital Star was breached before the Lost Star Territory was captured.

No one can afford to take this risk, so Horn believes that the Duke's decision is the most preferable at present.

Horn: "Your Excellency, everyone, in this way we will have a support fleet headed by about 100 battleships and 1000 cruisers, with a total of more than 360 ships of various types, plus the first batch of our reinforcement fleet.

With 25 battleships and 17 cruisers, our main battleships will reach 250, which is enough to solve any problem."

"Horn, how long do you expect to complete the fleet mobilization?"

Mike Bi asked, now is the most critical time, the first batch of supporting fleets are now cautious and are waiting for subsequent reinforcements.

"Within three months, the first fleet of 40 battleships and some cruisers will be ready to set off."

"Very good, I ask you to speed up. The first batch of reinforcement fleets will be cautious and detect the enemy's situation. Once the second batch of reinforcements arrive, they will take action immediately."

Prime Minister McBee said categorically that the action he was talking about was to move forward regardless of the enemy. A fleet headed by sixty or seventy battleships really did not have to worry about this or that, even if there might be heavy losses.

Nor should we be afraid of fighting.

At the same time, the first reinforcement fleet of the Lancs, which was slowly advancing in the Lost Star Territory, finally received an order to continue moving forward, mainly to detect the enemy's situation. They should not underestimate the enemy and advance rashly. If they encounter a stronger enemy,

Retreat immediately.

"Order, the fleet moves forward and maintains its formation. No unauthorized actions are allowed without my order.

Lord McBee's personal fleet is commanded by Major General Qiao Shan, who is of course a family mercenary major general.

The Imperial Intelligence Department in the Zhennanguan Star Territory easily obtained the secret key to the captain's room from Colonel Poker and obtained the most comprehensive route map.

"Sure enough, it is a complete route map. Judging from the navigation log, the entire route is safer. As long as you don't go the wrong way, you won't encounter any danger."

When Zhang Shusheng got this route map, he couldn't help but think of his hesitation when he destroyed the scientific research ship.

At that time, he also thought about directly capturing and obtaining this route map, but in order to fairly and fairly destroy the so-called 'foreign invaders who did not listen to warnings' for the first time in front of the people, he chose to sacrifice them.

Now that he got the route map, he realized how important it was.

Compared with the dangerous route map in his hand, this route map has almost no dangers worth mentioning. I don’t know how lucky the scientific research ship was, and it made a lot of twists and turns before it came in.

"The enemy is holding back. It must be because they suspect that the leading troops were attacked, and the enemies that follow will only become stronger and stronger.

With the current fleet alone, it is already difficult to face a bombardment head-on without suffering massive losses."

Zhang Shusheng thought about it and figured out that if he didn't attack head-on, he could only take advantage of the fact that the opponent didn't understand the entire situation, take the initiative, and first repel the opponent's first batch of support fleets. Then rely on the Lost Star Territory to fight guerrillas and delay

time.

"With the Chinese ship as the leader, it is equipped with the most advanced detection equipment. It is fully capable of hiding in the nearby lost star field when it deviates from the route. When the enemy advances, we retreat, and when the enemy retreats, we fight. Even if we cannot achieve a big victory, we can

I harassed the enemy for a long time, and by that time, my layout was almost completed."[

Zhang Shusheng thought of this, and immediately dialed Jiang Baili's mailbox and told him the entire situation, including his own guesses, the latest information obtained virtually online, etc., all in a comprehensive manner.

"Your Majesty, the current situation is really not suitable for us to launch a large-scale frontal bombardment. Carrying forward the characteristics of the army of the old era and fighting interstellar guerrilla warfare is the best way.

However, if the enemy concentrates their forces and persists, we may be unable to support them before they do."

Jiang Baili raised his own question.

Zhang Shusheng naturally knew this. Historically, the Long March had not brought down the Red Army. No matter how strong and determined the army was, it would be dragged down by an extremely long war, let alone this new imperial fleet.

"In terms of defeating the enemy, we really cannot rely on our own strength, but I will find a way to increase the number of battleships and at the same time create some big trouble for the Lancs."

Zhang Shusheng didn't explain it thoroughly. After all, he hadn't contacted Yun Ya yet, and he didn't know yet whether the entire plan could be implemented.

There is one thing Zhang Shusheng did not say: the reason why he is not afraid of the Lanke people is because he has a trump card.

"Since Your Majesty still has the trump card in his hand, I don't have to worry too much. Your Majesty, rest assured that I will fight this interstellar guerrilla war together with Sun Xiwu."

Jiang Baili said happily, whenever His Majesty is full of confidence, everyone knows one thing, that is, he must have a trump card in his hands.

Moreover, for so many years, His Majesty has been invisible to others, and he must have some unknown power in his hands.

"Boss, what's your trump card?"

Zhang Bing asked curiously.

Zhang Shusheng squeezed his little arm and said with a smile, "It will be kept secret for now."

Zhang Bing pouted, connected to the virtual network, and the two of them logged in.

"Boss, Yunya is online."

As soon as Zhang Shusheng came online, he heard Zhang Bing shouting from the side and knew that this kid was an intelligent life and after all, he was faster than himself in this regard.

Sure enough, Yunya was online and was browsing the virtual shopping street with endless chatter.

"Dududu~ Princess, the bad guys are coming for you again. Dududu~ Princess, the bad guys are coming for you again."

Yunya was shopping in the virtual street. When she heard the communication prompter sound, she suddenly smiled. Knowing that the guy was online, she immediately exited the virtual street and entered the virtual call room.

"Bad guy, if you go online once, it will take longer than the few times I've been here."

Yunya said unhurriedly that ever since she was feeling unwell, Zhang Shusheng asked in a bad way if his aunt was here. After explaining, Yunya always greeted him with a few words.

"Haha, Miss Yunya is a very busy person, how dare I interrupt you so easily, but I have something serious to do this time."

"Eh? That's great. I have something serious to ask you. Come on, let's go to the top floor of Tiandi Building to have a drink and chat."

Yunya said happily, and then the two of them came to a virtual city and entered the top floor of the tallest building in the virtual city. She booked a private room with the best view there, ordered special drinks, and chatted while looking at the virtual scenery.
