My empire of stars
Chapter 568: The Great Retreat
A few hours later, the remaining fleet of the empire was quietly suspended in the outer reaches of the star system.
In the explosion just now, the empire lost a total of two hundred and twenty battleships, which can be said to be a serious loss.
However, the explosion annihilated two of the Klemites' Titan-class battleships and severely damaged their flagship! This is an extremely important victory for the Sith Empire!
You must know that the Klem people are not building Titan-class battleships like the Empire, just like dumplings.
It would take them at least tens to hundreds of years to build a Titan-class battleship.
The explosion in the empire directly scrapped a hundred years of their efforts, leaving only one seriously injured flagship in the entire Clem Empire.
"Let us observe three minutes of silence for the 1,540 Imperial soldiers who died this time!" Li Mingze, who had returned to the Imperial Sword, the flagship of the Empire, took off his helmet and placed it on his chest and bowed his head in silence for three minutes.
"May you rest in peace!" Soldiers and officers also took off their helmets and bowed their heads in silence for the dead soldiers.
Fortunately, the empire had already upgraded its fleet to a fully automated fleet with fewer members. Each battleship only required one captain and six staff members, so only more than a thousand people were killed in this battle.
At the same time, due to the destruction of the two main battleships of the Clem Empire, and the destruction of the main fleet supporting the front line by the Imperial Glory, the entire Clem Empire's defense line was retreating steadily.
The Sith Empire's fleet, which was already three times the size of the Clem Empire, was aggressive and clung to the retreating Clem Empire fleet.
In this way, the empire's front line advanced nearly a thousand light years, gnawing away a large chunk of the Clem Empire's territory.
A few days later, over the Climb Empire's ring world, the Climb, which had all its exterior decorations removed, jumped out of hyperspace.
The originally gorgeous Gothic battleship has turned into a bare, rounded hull.
Emperor Clem in Clem's Palace is furious.
"Damn the Sith Empire!"
"I have to kill them!" Clem's emperor had been pacing back and forth in front of the throne, cursing for more than half an hour.
"Your Majesty, our frontline fleet is retreating steadily and has lost a thousand light years in depth. If this continues, we might as well make peace with them." An officer in the hall stood up and said tentatively.
"You are the traitor to our Clem Empire! Destroy the morale of the army here! Tell me, are you a spy of the Sith Empire?" His Majesty the Emperor of Clem frantically stepped forward and lifted the officer high into the air.
"No! No Your Majesty!" the officer shouted in panic. At this time, he was regretting it to death. Why did he take such a risk? But there is no regret medicine in this world. Even if he had it, he would have no chance, because of the emperor's scepter. It had penetrated his body.
As soon as the emperor let go, the officer stared and reluctantly held the scepter in his stomach and fell to the ground without sound.
"Whoever disrupts the morale of the army will end up like him!" Emperor Clem took out the scepter from the officer's belly, raised it in the air and shouted at the surrounding officers and officials.
The military and political officials knew that their Emperor had been mentally affected by the unprecedented defeat, but they did not dare to remind him aloud.
Their Clem Empire has never suffered a defeat in the tens of thousands of years since it came out of the universe. It is obvious that their Emperor's heart has collapsed after suffering this defeat.
"No! It's not over yet! Our Clem Empire is invincible!" Emperor Clem roared and sat back on his throne.
"Order all warships to withdraw to the Ring World. We abandon all colonies and attract the Sith Empire's warships to the Ring World for a decisive battle with us."
"When the time comes, we will use our super weapons to destroy all the scum of the Sith Empire!" The emperor of the Clem Empire made a pinching motion in the air with his hand.
"We are willing to obey your Majesty's instructions!" Many officers and officials hurriedly leaned down to express their sincerity.
"Disband the court!" The Emperor of the Clem Empire waved his hand, and many military and political officials filed out.
Soon after, the Sith Empire's fleet found that the enemy it faced had retreated. These Klemites abandoned their colonial star and retreated all their warships to their capital star system!
On the bridge of the Imperial Sword, Li Mingze was discussing with Eva and others the direction of the next war, when suddenly an officer came over.
"Your Majesty, the Frontline Intelligence Department has sent back an important message!" the officer stood at the door and saluted.
"Say it!" Li Mingze waved his hand.
"According to the intelligence sent back by various frontline fleets, the forces of the Clem Empire are retreating. We sent a reconnaissance ship to follow the retreating fleet of the Clem people for reconnaissance, and found that their fleets have withdrawn to their capital star. Department." the officer reported loudly.
"Oh? All the Clem people have retreated? Could it be that they have some conspiracy?" Li Mingze frowned slightly and asked in confusion.
"Your Majesty, the number of their warships is seriously insufficient. Your destruction in their hinterland has greatly affected their logistical efficiency."
"The opponent is no longer able to support such a long defense line, not to mention that the number of our warships has increased to three times that of the enemy, and as their warships continue to be destroyed, this ratio is still growing."
"If this continues, our advantage will become greater and greater. They can no longer hold on, so they withdraw to the capital star system and want to rely on defenses to defend the most important territory." Eva briefly summarized Clem's current situation. Dilemma faced by people.
"So, we should pursue the victory and take them down in one fell swoop!" Eva slammed the table.
"No, I object!" Qiuyue said from the side.
"Oh? Why?" Li Mingze turned his head in Qiuyue's direction curiously.
"Your Majesty, think about it, if we were at a disadvantage in a war, would you choose to give up all your territory and shrink down to defend the ring world?"
"Impossible! Because all our resources come from the supply of various colonial stars. Only when each colonial star continues to provide us with resources can we continue to build warships and supply the warships on the front line."
"In other words, once we give up the colonial star, it is equivalent to handing over the fruits of victory to others. Therefore, the Clem people will never give up their colonial star easily!" Qiuyue analyzed in a deep voice.
"Indeed, so they want to lure us to Planet Clem for a decisive battle?" Li Mingze slammed the table.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the other party has definitely prepared many traps for us on Planet Clem, just waiting for us to foolishly step into them, so we must not be fooled by them." Qiuyue said with certainty.
