Chapter 419: Chapter 323: A Dilemma (Five in One)_4

"Without my orders, no one is allowed to take action; otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!"

Aus sternly warned as he saw Dixis about to enter the fray.

"Do you think we would be afraid of you?"

Dixis and his fellows showed no fear of Aus.

But at that moment, Deputy Corps Commanders Kaisas and Avabido drew their swords from their waists and looked coldly at the four of Dixis.

Soldiers all around drew their beam guns.

Instantly, the atmosphere became charged with tension, a single spark could ignite a full-blown conflict.

However, fortunately at that time, Lorina with rotting skin and dressed in a black robe, spoke hoarsely.

"Dixis, sit down. Let Aus decide how to fight; if he screws it up, we’ll kill him afterward."

"Hmph!"

Dixis snorted coldly after listening to Lorina and sat down.

Seeing Dixis sit down, Deputy Corps Commanders Kaisas and Avabido sheathed their swords.

The surrounding soldiers also put away their weapons.

Aus sat coldly in the command chair, looking at the various battlefields displayed on the screen.

Seconds ticked by.

The Imperial Army’s fleet was in disarray, casualties were soaring, while on the Federation’s side, more and more reinforcements were arriving, and morale was increasingly high.

Just when the Federation’s morale reached its peak, massive spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared in the space around them.

Ten 100-kilometer-long battleships, each with a statue of the Emperor holding a sword at their prows and a giant base cannon extending from the bottom of the sword, their thick hulls covered with layers of heavy gray armor and dotted with numerous firing ports—class 5 battleships Giant Statue—materialized.

Following these ten Giant Statues were various models of class 4 battleships, along with a vast fleet.

Aus, seeing these ships appear, spoke ferociously.

"Notify all troops, tell them reinforcements have arrived, full-scale counterattack, crush the Federation’s forces!"

"Yes!"

An excited subordinate shouted in response.

As the announcement went out, the Imperial Army’s communications channel erupted with numerous fervent voices.

"Brothers! Reinforcements have arrived, the time for counterattack has come!"

"Charge!"

"Kill all those Federation dogs, for the Emperor!"

...

In an instant, the retreating Imperial Army began launching a ferocious counterattack, with the newly-arrived Giant Statues viciously attacking the Federation forces.

The Federation was stunned and immediately split their forces to intercept!

...

At this time, in the Star Sea between the Fretta Kingdom, the Woguo Kingdom, the Tasji Kingdom, and Black Flame Star.

Suddenly, widespread spatial fluctuations rippled through space.

Ships bearing the flag of the Blood-colored Fang Army materialized out of nowhere.

These ships quickly dispersed, releasing various types of space mines and Curvature Interference Devices, and detection devices, blockading the entire starry sky.

Of course, this scene also played out above the main space lanes of the Three Neutral Countries.

...

The next morning.

Su Ming lay sound asleep in bed.

He and Lin Chuyu had drunk until past two in the morning before returning to the dorm to rest.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Rhein walked in, anxiously shouting.

"Boss, wake up, something big has happened!"

Su Ming instantly opened his eyes and sat up, asking.

"What happened?"

"The Federation has been defeated!"

"What did you say? The Federation has been defeated? Weren’t they doing well last night? How could they suddenly be defeated?"

"Ah, last night was fine, and they were about to win. Who knew that at the critical moment, the Imperial Army’s reinforcements would arrive, ten class 5 battleships joined the battlefield, and the Federation’s forces were severely damaged instantly!"

Rhein said with great regret.

"What’s the situation with the Federation forces now?"

"The Battleships Hurricane and Red Brilliance, two class 5 battleships, were destroyed, the class 5 Mother Ship Red Brilliance was sunk, and thousands of other ships were damaged, with deaths exceeding three million! Now the forces are retreating to the Tasji Kingdom for rest and rescue. The rescue scene that was transmitted back is simply too dreadful to look at! The medical system in the Tasji Kingdom is nearly collapsing."

"That bad?"

"It’s not even the worst part."

"What is the worst part?"

"The worst part is that the Dark Star Empire has blockaded the travel routes between the Tasji Kingdom and Black Flame Star."

"If the routes have been blockaded, aren’t the Federation’s forces trapped like turtles in a jar?"

Su Ming felt his heart sink upon hearing this.

"Yes, but fortunately the Imperial Army also suffered heavy losses and did not attack the Kingdoms. The Federation’s forces are safe for now."

Rhein explained to Su Ming.

"It’s not that simple."

Su Ming replied with a furrowed brow, sure enough, the worst had happened.

"Boss, you don’t mean to say that the enemy is deliberately not attacking the Kingdoms to annihilate the retreating Federation forces, do you?"

Rhein asked, startled.

"If you had an easy catch, would you let it go?"

"No way, what do we do now?"

"I’m not sure, this kind of big situation is not something we can control. Let’s go to the Star Cluster Forum first to see how things are developing."

Su Ming said with a heavy countenance. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

"Okay!"

Rhein replied, full of worry.

Su Ming picked up his phone and logged into the Star Cluster Forum.

The entire Star Cluster Forum was practically exploding, with countless posts popping up.

Su Ming clicked on a hot post titled ’Hell on Earth’.

The post contained a video clip.

Su Ming opened the video, and the interstellar airport of the Tasji Kingdom appeared before his eyes.

The massive interstellar airport was lined with damaged ships.

Many of these ships were still ablaze, sending up billowing black smoke.

A stream of medical vehicles sped across the interstellar airport, countless wounded were being carried off.
