Zhao Chen agreed very much in his heart, he had a "deep understanding" of this.
Although his current Xiaolong Legion is not weak, the strategic supplies in reserve cannot sustain a large-scale battle at all.
Especially a total war.
Zhao Chen seemed to have seen the outcome of the Chu family's army.
If he were the supreme commander of the Xingyao Empire, as soon as the Chu family army rebelled, he would first cut off the links between all star gates and the Chu River Star Region.
And adopt a scorched earth strategy.
Once a galaxy falls, the star gate of this galaxy must be destroyed first before the galaxy falls.
As a result, the Chu family's army's front line will be stretched very long. There are not many strategic materials in the first place, which will greatly reduce their offensive efficiency.
If there is a resource mining area in the system, then directly move the industrial equipment in the resource mining area that can be moved, and destroy the rest that cannot be moved. At the same time, destroy the resource mining area as much as possible to increase the difficulty of resuming mining.
As a result, even if these resource mining areas are occupied by the Governor of Chuhe, production will not be resumed within a short period of time.
In the end, at most, the strategic materials of the Chu Family Legion can be consumed at the cost of one star field.
At that time, the empire will launch a full-scale counterattack.
The Chu family army will face a situation of having ships but no ammunition.
"But when I come to the Imperial City, even if they really want to imprison me, they won't dare to do anything to me.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
After killing an imperial duke, a five-star marshal, a star governor, and a Manchu and Mongolian loyalist who had been guarding the border against foreign enemies for hundreds of years for no reason.
Then for the Xingyao Empire, it is not far from falling into pieces." Governor Chuhe laughed, feeling confident.
This is true.
If the Xingyao Empire had no foreign troubles, it would be able to move Governor Chuhe at all costs, but in this situation.
The royal family must take into account the hearts and minds of the people in the Xingyao Empire.
After all, you even touched the Chu family.
What about the other star governors, dukes, and marshals?
Is it true that as long as your royal family is willing, you can find any excuse to eradicate dissidents?
"But you are on the Imperial Capital Star... isn't this still putting your life in the hands of the royal family?" Zhao Chen was worried.
Governor Chuhe waved his hand and said with a chuckle: "If the Chu family rebels, they will naturally attack me.
If the Chu family doesn't resist, me being here is actually a hot potato for them.
Don't worry, it's much safer here than in the Chuhe Star Region.
Moreover, aren’t they afraid that the Chu family will defect to the other two empires?”
Governor Chuhe finally smiled evilly.
Zhao Chen saw that the old man had his own ideas. He was using himself as a chess piece to determine the fate of the Chu family.
"Okay, let's end our conversation here.
Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Even if the sky falls, there will still be someone tall to hold you up."
This ends the chat between Zhao Chen and the old governor of Chuhe.
"I always feel like something big is going to happen during this conferment ceremony." Zhao Chen muttered.
…
The next day, the receptionist Xiangxiang contacted Zhao Chen and took Zhao Chen to the banquet venue.
This banquet was held in a "City in the Sky" in low-Earth orbit, and Zhao Chen came here on a shuttle.
I saw many lords and nobles.
The noble medals worn on the chest, without exception, all started as viscounts, and Zhao Chen even saw several marquis medals.
Those who can accept the personal conferment from Emperor Xingyao must have at least an earl or above.
Most of them are older, in their forties or fifties.
Zhao Chen seems a little out of place here at such a young age.
Zhao Chen found a relatively remote seat and sat down. He glanced around the banquet venue and saw a few familiar people.
Five-star Marshal Huang Zhixiong, Governor of the Blue Star Territory.
These two people are old acquaintances of Zhao Chen.
Governor Bilan also spotted Zhao Chen sitting in the corner, and he walked over with a harmless expression.
"Marquis Zhao Chen, why are you sitting in the corner?
Those people really want to meet the famous Marquis Zhao Chen." Governor Bilan said enthusiastically.
Zhao Chen shook his head and pretended to be nervous and said: "I am a timid person and not used to such big scenes.
Governor Azure can just have fun and don't worry about me."
"How can that be done? Speaking of which, the Zerg disaster that happened in my Azure Star Territory was saved thanks to Marquis Zhao Chen.
I haven’t even thanked Marquis Zhao Chen properly, I feel so ashamed.” Governor Bilan said.
You thanked yourself very much at the beginning. If the royal fleet of Governor Chuhe and the little princess hadn't arrived, I don't know what trouble you would have caused.
I have to say, these people are really thick-skinned.
We were in that situation back then, but now we can still chat with ourselves here calmly.
However, if he were to know that the Hurricane Consortium under him fell from the altar because he supported Li Yaqi's Beiyan Starship Technology Group behind the scenes.
I guess I can't hold back my good looks.
"You're welcome." Zhao Chen said.
"Actually, we had some misunderstandings before.
I think there is still a possibility for us to cooperate.
After all, I have connections and resources, and you have the technology.
Although you are the future grandson-in-law of the Governor of Chuhe, as the saying goes, a good bird chooses the tree where it roosts!
You don’t have to hang yourself on a tree like the Chu family, not to mention that the Chu family now is no longer the Chu family before.” Governor Bilan seemed to have something in his words.
Zhao Chen knew full well that Governor Bilan was poaching, and at the same time, he made himself understand that the Chu family was about to decline.
Rather than sinking with this broken ship of the Chu family, why not come to me with the starship technology in your hands.
"I don't think much about it right now. I just want to develop my own territory." Zhao Chen said pretending to be confused.
Governor Bilan patted Zhao Chen on the shoulder, like an old friend: "Brother Zhao Chen, I believe you will make a wise choice in the end."
The smile on the blue governor's face gives people the feeling of a smiling tiger.
At this moment, a group of attendants appeared at the entrance of the banquet, and the attendants escorted the two people into the banquet venue.
"The Second Prince and Prince Yan are here!"
Zhao Chen looked over and saw a middle-aged man and a young man surrounded by everyone.
Although Zhao Chen had never met these two people before, Zhao Chen had heard the information about these two people discussed by his classmates at the Northern Starship Military Academy.
The second prince Qin Ming.
Together with his brother, the third prince Qin Hu, he established the Prince Party.
Prince Yan is the younger brother of the current Emperor Xingyao.
He was given the title of Prince Yan and was granted the title of Xueyan Star Territory. He was the only prince in the Xingyao Empire.
But I heard that he has always been an idle prince with no ambitions, and he likes to collect novelty gadgets from various galaxies and universes.
Emperor Xingyao gives his younger brother some rare treasures every year.
Unexpectedly, Prince Yan appeared in person at this conferment ceremony.
At this moment, the Imperial Capital Star seems to be filled with mysterious and suspicious clouds.
