Traveling through the infinite wasteland

?The province of Halcharhan has entered the highest alert state at this moment, and the void tunnel leading to the outer space area has been blocked by a large number of various warships and interstellar fortresses! Except for strategic command ships, all spaceships are no longer allowed to enter or exit!

The large number of merchant ships that were originally shuttled back and forth at the entrances of the major void tunnels have now disappeared. They quickly saw the opportunity and left early! Those fleets that were a step behind had to stay in the star port, praying in their hearts that this war would end as soon as possible, so as not to affect their financial resources!

The defense power of the entire province is quite strong, with millions of fleets, dozens of supernatural legions, eight mobile interstellar fortresses, and more than one large fixed fortress stationed at several key void tunnel entrances! With such a lineup, as long as it is just an accident, even if the attacking side has several times more troops, it can be defended for three months without any problem! .

Because of this, the provincial governor Jiang Mingqi and the theater commander Bridgeto simply rejected the Daomang Empire's persuasion to surrender from the beginning.

From Leng Zhuo's point of view, these two people were not very loyal to the woman, they just didn't think highly of the Dao Mang Empire! With the strength in their hands and relying on the geographical location, they can completely resist the offensive of the Dao Mang fleet! What's more, Imperial Minister Zhu Zhaohe's main fleet is about to arrive, less than two days away!

At that time, the offensive and defensive sides will have to change positions, and the direct power of the war will be completely controlled by the Shuofeng Empire! The Daomang fleet was forced to switch to strategic defense, and even the territory it had conquered before might not be able to hold on! The situation where the fleet arrives and the defenders surrender will never happen again!

"It seems that these guys won't shed tears until they see the coffin!" Ye Qingyuan said with a smile, "That's fine, let the fleet waiting for me teach them a lesson! Let's see how much weight they have and whether they can Enough to stop the imperial army!"

Li Kai looked at the star map and said with some worry: "However, Your Majesty, Zhu Zhaohe's main fleet is coming soon, with more than three million warships of various types, plus more than a hundred supernatural legions, and half a hundred interstellar fortresses! Most of them are elite troops from around the imperial capital, and a small number are drawn from various places!"

"If such a huge force successfully joins forces with the existing garrison in the province and takes advantage of the geographical advantage, it will be enough to offset our advantages to a large extent! I'm afraid this battle will be very difficult to fight by then!"

"That will only happen if they can arrive in time!" Tian Xuanhao snorted coldly, "With our current methods, we can tear apart the opponent's defense in just half a day! That guy Bridgeto's ability is not that good either. Really, it doesn’t take much effort to solve it head-on!”

Gurungs agreed: "As long as we clean up this force, even if Zhu Zhaohe arrives with his troops, he won't be able to use it! With his little ability, he can't command so many fleets!"

"Break through their defenses and eliminate all the defenders within one day! Are you sure?" Ye Qingyuan asked, "If it takes too long, it will be difficult to handle when these two forces merge into one! "

In a word, the most important thing for Daomang Empire at present is still time! If you spend too long here, even if it is only a day or two, even if you can still win in the end, you may lose in the general trend!

After the general mobilization order is issued, the Shuofeng Empire's military strength will become stronger every day! It won't take long for it to catch up with the rate of wear and tear on the battlefield! If by then, the Daomang Empire still cannot make breakthrough progress, all previous results will be in vain!

Therefore, we must capture this province as soon as possible, and then take advantage of the situation to expand to the five weeks. As long as this economic and military center is not lost, we can firmly control half of the Yunmeng Galaxy. In the ensuing war, at least self-protection will not be a problem!

"Your Majesty, I am willing to issue a military order to ensure victory within one day!" Gurungs said solemnly.

Ye Qingyuan shrugged and nodded lightly: "Okay! There is no need to issue a military order! This war is no small matter, and all the best must be used. I will go out personally to fight and deal with them as soon as possible, so that the rest of the matter will be easier to handle!"

Zhu Zhaohe has been in a bad mood recently, very bad!

Ever since Zhu Zhaoyuan assigned him to be responsible for the battle against the Daomang Empire, he has never had a good night's sleep. He stays in the Star Fortress every day dealing with all kinds of things that make him feel overwhelmed! Today the space area here is lost, tomorrow the fleet there surrenders, or some high-ranking officials abandon their own defense areas and become deserters!

Every time something like this happens, Zhu Zhaoyuan will issue an edict and reprimand him! The faster the Daomang Empire progresses, the more reprimands he will receive! He was scolded so much that he was almost driven crazy by the end!

If I had known this, why did I need to take on such a fatal job in the first place? Not only did he work hard, but he also had to be scolded every day! It’s really not a life for human beings!

It was supposed to arrive a few days ago, but because he didn't have enough troops on hand, reinforcements from all over the place had not yet arrived. He was really not sure that he would go up and fight a former empire god like Gurungs at this time! I'm afraid that in just three rounds, he will be beaten to the ground!

Because of this, he lingered in the rear for a few more days, until the assembled troops exceeded three million warships of various types and hundreds of supernatural legions. How dare he bring the fleet over here!

In the vast starry sky, millions of warships of all kinds formed a marching array, stretching for nearly 9,000 kilometers in front and back, rushing forward in a mighty manner! Looking from a distance, all you can see are pieces of metal giant beasts flashing with cold light, and their momentum is extremely terrifying!

"How long until we can reach Kharkharkhan Province?"

In the "Tianchu" interstellar fortress, the Minister of Military Affairs, who was much slimmer, asked his intelligence officer in a hoarse voice.

"Marshal, we still have half a day's journey! We can arrive in five or eight hours!" the intelligence chief said respectfully.

Zhu Zhaohe nodded slightly when he heard this, and then asked: "What is the Daomang Fleet doing now? According to previous intelligence, they seem to be nearby here too!"

"Yes, sir, the Daomang fleet has arrived in the province of Halcharhan and is fighting fiercely with the defenders there!"

"What? I didn't expect their movements to be so fast?" Zhu Zhaohe said in surprise, "Don't they know that the empire's reinforcements are already close at hand? It's really audacious to want to attack at this time!"

The enemy's reinforcements were on the side. Once they arrived, they would be attacked from both sides. Unexpectedly, they did not temporarily shrink their troops, but instead attacked unscrupulously! The emperor's courage has left Zhu Zhaohe speechless! Could it be that he really thought that the Shuofeng Empire's military power was just a display?

The Minister of Military Affairs thought for a while. With a fleet of millions in hand, the gambling spirit in his heart also emerged and gradually dominated his thinking!

Since the other side is so bold and arrogant! Then hasn’t your opportunity really come? As long as this main fleet can be completely annihilated, or even just severely damaged, my own contribution will be extremely huge! Her prestige in the empire will skyrocket. By then, even Zhu Zhaoyuan won't be able to easily ignore her own existence, right?

Knowing this, he no longer hesitated and immediately ordered his adjutant: "Let the fleet speed up and hurry up! As long as we capture the Dao Mang Empire's fleet, we will be the heroes of the empire!"

"Understood, sir!" the adjutant accepted the order solemnly.

Unexpectedly, less than two hours had passed. The vanguard fleet had arrived near a void tunnel not long ago, and saw a group of dilapidated warships of various types coming from the void tunnel in a panic. When they saw them Finally, as if grasping a life-saving straw, he hurriedly leaned forward.

Soon, Zhu Zhaohe got the news. After questioning, he found that the person in power unexpectedly turned out to be Jiang Mingqi, the governor of Halcharhan Province.

"Marshal!" The pampered governor complained to Zhu Zhaohe with a mournful face, "The province of Halcharhan is over. Just two hours ago, the Daomang Empire's fleet had torn through the defense line. General Bridgeto Die in battle and die for your country!”

Zhu Zhaohe's vision went dark and he almost lost his balance! He shouted in disbelief: "What are you talking about? The province has fallen! Why is this possible? With millions of fleets and interstellar fortress garrison, even a group of pigs can stop the enemy! You didn't expect that you only defended Less than a day! You guys, what do you do for food..."

Jiang Mingqi was aggrieved, like an angry little daughter-in-law, and murmured: "Marshal, you can't blame us. The fierce fighting power on the other side is too strong, and we can't cope with it at all! Plus the ancient That old guy Longsi came forward to persuade him to surrender, but I don’t know how many middle-level commanders betrayed him on the spot, so this battle is really unwinnable..."

Zhu Zhaohe cursed crazily: "Trash, you are all a bunch of trash! If I had known earlier that you were so miserable, why would the empire still support you!"

Although his talents are limited, he also knows what losing the province of Halcharhan means to the Shuofeng Empire!

The previous Dao Mang fleet progressed rapidly, almost smoothly, and captured so much territory in less than a month! However, he didn't particularly care. The star defense systems in these cosmic areas were not too strong and it was not easy to defend them. In addition, it was impossible for them to divide their forces. Therefore, just one or two big victories would be enough to turn the situation around!

However, Halcharhan Province is different. Once this strategic location falls into the hands of the enemy, the impact on the entire war situation will be disastrous! The Shuofeng Empire's military morale has been further hit. At least in the vast cosmic area of ​​the Xiyunmeng Galaxy, there is no second force that can compete with the Daomang Empire's army!

With half of the Yunmeng Galaxy in hand, the abundant human and material resources will be fully integrated into the Daomang Empire's system, providing enough solid material backing for its expedition to the star sea! The direct power of this war has begun to slowly transfer to the hands of the Daomang Empire. According to various opinions, it may only be a matter of time before the other half of the Yunmeng Galaxy falls!

Zhu Zhaohe hesitated for a long time before painfully making up his mind: "We can't attack rashly! Order the fleet to stop advancing, guard the void tunnel, and summon generals above the level of the legion to come over for discussion!"

On September 19, 7948 in the interstellar calendar, the Harcharhan Province, the most important economic and administrative center in the western part of the Yunmeng Galaxy of the Shuofeng Empire, was attacked by the Daomang Empire army with all its strength. The Emperor He personally led the Imperial Guards into battle, and the former imperial god Gurungs came forward to surrender, causing a large number of Shuofeng fleets to mutiny on the spot. In less than a day, the Shuofeng Empire regiment was completely defeated!

The commander of the garrison, General Brigitte, died in battle. Governor Jiang Mingqi saw the opportunity quickly and escaped with a group of cronies in a dangerous situation! It happened to hit the main fleet of the empire that came for reinforcements.

After Zhu Zhaohe learned about the progress of the Daomang fleet, he panicked for a moment. The ambition that had surfaced not long ago was instantly thrown out of the sky! .

Although there are millions of fleets on hand, the total military strength is not inferior to that of the Daomang Empire. But he knew in his heart that if he really rushed over regardless, his end would definitely not be any better than that unlucky guy Bridgetto!

The Daomang fleet has been victorious one after another, and it even won a great victory not long ago, and its morale is at its peak! On the other hand, although the ordinary officers and soldiers do not know the situation of the battle directly ahead due to the blockade of information, once the fighting starts, the other side will definitely use this to persuade them to surrender. With the presence of a group of former imperial generals headed by Gurungs, even if Only 20 to 30% of the fleet rebelled, and he was almost doomed!

Although Zhu Zhaoyuan carried out a large-scale purge of the empire and killed many high-ranking generals, she was eager to find only enough suitable candidates to control the millions of fleets for her! Therefore, in the later period, she had to adopt soft measures and found Shuyuan www.zhaｏshuyuａ.com to restore the posts of some generals, promising various benefits to win over people's hearts, and inserting a large number of people surnamed Zhu into the fleet!

Among the more than 3 million fleets and more than 100 powerful legions under this Minister of Military Affairs, among the high-ranking generals above the legion commander, 80% are made up of children surnamed Zhu. However, there is no question as to whether these guys have anything to do with it. Their abilities commensurate with their positions are unknown!

Many of the remaining generals, as well as the vast majority of middle-level commanders, come from the disciples of the former famous generals of the empire. If a war really breaks out, the Dao Mang Empire will only have to repeat its old tricks, and there is no need to estimate the outcome of the war. Got it too!

Of course, the main responsibility for this situation still lies with Zhu Zhaoyuan. If her bloody purge and various perverse actions had not chilled the hearts of countless officers and soldiers, it would have been Gurungs who came forward, and they would not have been able to surrender easily!

Although Zhu Zhaohe is timid and fearful, he still has some sense. He knows that in the current situation, his own fleet really has little chance of winning. If he loses, the Shuofeng Empire will not be able to commando again for at least a month. Weave a fleet of the same size! The final result caused by this is undoubtedly catastrophic!

Therefore, he chose to retreat backwards, and with his millions of fleets, he left the borders of Halcharhan Province in despair and retreated to the nearby Goshuli Province, separated from the Daomang Fleet by more than twenty cosmic regions. ! Then while stepping up the construction of the defense line, he truthfully reported the battle situation on the front line to the imperial capital and asked Zhu Zhaoyuan to make up his mind. (To be continued.)
