Galaxy Domination Guide-Chapter 453: Invasion 444 (Part 9)

Lv Zhinian's expression never resembled someone who was experiencing a great war that spanned the ages. Just on the Star Alliance's side, there were more than five thousand warships, involving over three million people from both the Universe Army and the Silver Feather Army, while the Benefactors and Teizene might have a personnel count of tens of millions.

The intelligent general with a knack for strategic planning spoke slowly, "Now, we're faced with a difficult choice: either we abandon Lingge Star and Gigite Star, with our entire army defending Taoran Star, relying on our solid defense posture which would make it hard for the enemy to break through our lines, enabling us to wait for a final result from Earth, or we engage the enemy in battle in the best condition; or, we must protect all assets of the Star Alliance in the Xunyi Star Zone, engaging the enemy wherever they move, dispatching a main force to meet the enemy in the Lingge Galaxy."

Xu Lanzhou knew that he was not as adept at strategic calculations as this outstanding officer who came from the PLA Navy, so he asked very humbly, "If we choose the second option, what are our risks?"

Lv Zhinian said, "Firstly, how the Enslavers have arranged their forces is unknown to us. Although we can conduct more reconnaissance, it's very difficult to locate the enemy within this battlefield that spans tens of light-years. I suspect that the enemy may be deliberately using multiple Marquine warships to initiate multiple warp bubbles, creating the illusion of a large-scale deployment when in reality there might be only a few dozen ships within a single warp bubble, with their actual main force covertly embarking, dodging our surveillance, waiting for us to react to their movements. Once we really commit a large force to save Lingge Star, their main force could launch a surprise attack on Taoran Star."

Xu Lanzhou nodded, looking somewhat pensive, and said, "So the trouble lies in the fact that we really don't know how they've distributed their fleet, right?"

Lv Zhinian continued, "Secondly, we are the side with fewer numbers, and splitting our forces has a greater impact on us than it does on them. Based on the capacity of the warp bubbles they are currently initiating towards Lingge Star, which is about seventy percent, that's at least seven to eight thousand warships. If we send three thousand warships into battle, whether we can achieve victory is also a matter of concern."

Lv Zhinian's eyes were bright, as if holding wisdom in his grasp, he said, "This time, the people of Teizene definitely won't be foolish enough to use something like a shield array again, the difficulty of our battle will be much greater than the Gigite campaign. Not to mention, the Benefactors' fleet and the Marquine warships are both stronger than the Teizene warships."

Admiral Yuan Lang of the Silver Feather Army, who was also listening to Lv Zhinian's analysis, greatly admired him. Yuan Lang considered himself to be one of the top talents in the Silver Feather Army but knew he was not on par with someone like Lv Zhinian. Yuan Lang thought to himself with a silent sigh, "Indeed, the Chancellor commands a host of capable and fierce generals; if Lv Zhinian had been born five thousand years earlier, he probably would have had the credentials to become a Knight of Destiny."

Xu Lanzhou asked in another way, "Major General Lv, if you were to lead a fleet to Lingge Star for battle, how many ships would you take?"

In the depths of his heart, Lv Zhinian was clear that Xu Lanzhou would not give up Lingge Star. Such a young female commander couldn't be completely ruthless. Of course, from a political perspective, if the Star Alliance were to give up an important Administrative Star so easily, it would be a severe blow to the Alliance itself.

After a moment of contemplation, Lv Zhinian then replied, "If possible, I would take only one ship, but that obviously doesn't match your intentions as the commander. So, we are gambling now, to see where the enemy has placed their bets. However, I have a simple method that might verify the bets of our enemies and give us a slight edge in winning."

The Great Emperor of Teizene closed his eyes to meditate, displaying excellent composure. Daci'en, not willing to lose his own presence before him, commanded a group of vassal race beauties to sing and dance for entertainment on his flagship.

By the Great Emperor of Teizene's side, it was chillingly quiet, while Daci'en was surrounded by singing and dancing. The two were connected by communication, and Daci'en asked seemingly casually, "Great Emperor of Teizene, our fleets have been traveling for more than ten hours now, yet haven't been discovered by the Star Alliance's reconnaissance ships. Just how long must we wait?"

With eyes still closed, the Great Emperor of Teizene remained serene and said, "We wait until they make a move."

With increasing urgency in his voice, Daci'en said, "But what if the Star Alliance truly abandons Lingge Star?"

The Great Emperor of Teizene replied, "Then I have other plans."

In military strategy, the people of Teizene were quite similar to those of Earth. The Great Emperor had a very powerful group of generals and staff officers, one side devising plans and the other executing them, which was a primary reason for their continuous military successes.

At that moment, a communication popped up from a gray-skinned Marquine puppet. Naturally, he spoke with the voice of the Controllers.

"Teizene, Benefactor, the Controllers' warships have detected large-scale warp activity, estimating the size to be over four thousand warships," he said.

The Great Emperor of Teizene's eyes lit up, "Four thousand warships? Although the Star Alliance's shipbuilding speed is fast, their fleet formation speed is not so quick. Including those silver warships with long horns, four thousand should be their limit."

Daci'en, no longer caring for the entertainment, immediately inquired, "So, is this their main fleet then?"
