Chapter 506: Invasion like fire (Class)

In the main hall of the Imperial Palace, Zhu Zhaoyuan and the little emperor were on the imperial throne.

After listening to the nervous report from the Minister of Military Affairs, the Empress Dowager could not see any panic on her face. On the contrary, she also had an invisible smile in her eyes.

In her opinion, the emperor of the Starlight Empire was simply a lunatic! He had just fought with the coalition forces of the six major families, and in less than a month, he actually dared to fight the Shufeng Empire!

Yes, this lucky guy only took several years from his uprising to his current huge foundation. Both his ability and his luck were so good that it was jealous! When facing the advantageous coalition of the six major families, he was still able to defeat him simply and neatly, which shows that his luck is really not ordinary!

If this guy can make steady progress and carefully manage the foundation he has laid, he may have the strength to make a little profit with the Shufeng Empire in ten or twenty years. But now, his little capital is really not enough in front of an old superpower!

Originally, I wanted to let the aristocratic families continue to fight him, but after a huge loss, the smart heads were no longer willing to take risks again. However, this guy was getting more and more courageous and came to the door directly!

That's good, let you, an ignorant guy, appreciate the strength of the superpower! The history of the Star Light Empire must be ended by this palace. By then, more than 700 star fields will be included in the empire's territory. With this great military reputation, your status will no longer be shaken! Even those ambitious heads of aristocratic families have to act according to the faces of our palace!

After thinking for a while, she asked Zhu Xinlong: "How many troops are you given? Are you sure to defeat the invading enemy troops within three months?"

Zhu Xinlong tightened his scalp and quickly responded: "Return to the Queen Mother, the Starlight Empire is coming in full force. If you want to repel the opponent in a short period of time, the military force required may not be too small! At least about half of the empire's standing fleet must be mobilized to achieve its contribution!"

"Half the military power of the empire?" Zhu Zhaoyuan frowned, "That is nearly four million warships. How many fleets did the other party send? Do you have to use so much military power to fight?"

Han Zining, deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, said lukewarmly: "The Starlight Empire has just ended a great war. Although it has won by chance, its own casualties are extremely heavy. How many fleets can it have intact combat power? Is it worth our deployment of such a large formation?"

After the end of the last war, the heads of the aristocratic families said in order to consider their face, that the casualties of the Xinghui Empire were no less than those of the aristocratic families. And based on long-term plans, the monarch and minister of Yun Haoyu unexpectedly kept a low profile and did not publicize the details of the war, which was considered to be accustomed to the statements of the heads of the family. In addition to the careful operation of the intelligence system, Zhu Zhaoyuan believed it true!

Zhu Xinlong didn't think that the Starlight Empire could use much power to attack now. In his opinion, the other party's actions were just a bold temptation, testing the virtuality and reality of the empire's military strength, and then snatch dozens of star fields. As long as the young emperor has not completely lost his mind, he will not be able to fight with the empire!

However, he, the Minister of Military Affairs, really didn't know how many troops the other party had dispatched, and the expedited military newspaper sent from the front line did not make it clear. But if he answered truthfully, it would definitely make the Empress Dowager unhappy.

After hesitating for a moment, he said with a tough bullet: "According to the military information sent back from the front line, they have dispatched a total of about one million fleets this time, and are currently entrenched in the Shaou Star Domain. Our lack of troops in that area may not be able to stop them! So..."

"Are there millions of warships?" Zhu Zhaoyuan pondered:

"They just experienced such great casualties, and they were able to produce so many fleets with good combat power? Could it be that they had brought out the last little wealth? It's really crazy!"

Zhu Bin, Minister of the Ministry of Security of the Empire, said: "Empress Dowager, since they dare to take such risks, we only need to find ways to defeat their attempts and eat their last living power. This empire will be almost over, then..."

Zhu Zhaoyuan's eyes lit up, she thought for a moment, and nodded slightly:

"It makes sense! Then let's do it! Zhu Xinlong, I promise you can mobilize all the fleets of war zones in the Yunmeng Galaxy at will, and then draw 500,000 warships from the elite legions near the imperial capital, and thirty superpower legions to you. Such military strength should be enough, right?"

"Enough, enough!" Zhu Xinlong's face was happy and hurriedly promised:

"Please rest assured to the Queen Mother, I will definitely go out to fight as soon as possible, defeat the enemy and wipe out the Xinghui Empire! Open up the territory for the empire!"

Zhu Zhaoyuan smiled slightly, looked at the other court officials in the hall, and asked casually: "Do you have anything else to say?"

The ministers expressed their opinions: "The Empress Dowager is wise, and I have no objection!"

In the court today, it is basically the world of Zhu Zhaoyuan and the heads of the aristocratic families. All those who dare to make different voices have died. Naturally, no one will stand up and sing the opposite of the Queen Mother at this time.

Yun Hongchang looked at all this expressionlessly, closed his lips and said nothing, but a trace of inadvertent mockery flashed in his eyes. The other heads of the family also looked calm, and Zhou Junyi even squinted his eyes and took a nap.

I don’t know how the young man is doing, but I must have rushed into the empire at this time, right? I don’t know how much territory can the Yunmeng Galaxy be left when Zhu Xinlong rushed over! But don’t be the commander who is barely back! He thought gloatingly.

Since the imperial edict was decided, the imperial war machines immediately began to operate, selected legions, mobilized military supplies, formulated marching routes and combat plans, and Zhu Xinlong completed the other affairs at hand with his deputy, and moved to a military base near the imperial capital to personally supervise all preparations.

For such a big country, military plans of different sizes and large number of fleets have corresponding mature plans. If you continue with instructions, the following departments only need to implement them step by step!

As for the various materials needed to go to the expedition, there are a large amount of reserves in the base, which is enough to ensure consumption in the early stage of the war. The rest can be allocated from major military regions and sent to the near the waterway where the army passed in batches. Everything is extremely convenient and fast!

By the next night, all preparations were ready, and the lovely Minister of Military Affairs finally set off! Of course, before this, he did not forget to issue an order to allow the entire Yunmeng Galaxy fleet to enter a state of war. In addition to leaving the necessary garrison forces, all mobile fleets moved closer to the designated star domain and discussed the battle after he arrived.

At this time, the fleet of the Starlight Empire had already fought through the Nanfeng Star Domain and broke through the second hurried blockade line of the local fleet. It was more than 3,000 light years away from the border line. It was running along the main channel and heading towards the deep hinterland of the Yunmeng Galaxy! The star defense fortress along the way and the garrison fleet could not stop this tiger and wolf army!

The scale of the fleet was not what Zhu Xinlong thought was about one million, but had a total of 2.3 million! The warships modified by Yuangu Technology were marching faster than those of the elite guards of the Shufeng Empire!

What's even worse is that even the more than ten interstellar fortresses were brought over by the fleet that went on expedition, and it did not affect the speed of the march at all! When encountering the star defense fortress that was stubborn, you can completely fight head-on!

Moreover, due to Zhu Zhaoyuan's unpopular actions after taking office, especially the large-scale purge against military generals, many officers and soldiers were resentful. In addition, Gulons and many former senior generals of the Empire came forward to surrender. Since breaking through the border star defense, the imperial fleet has never encountered too fierce resistance along the way! Many officers and soldiers either fled or surrendered in an organized manner! The progress was smoother than expected estimates!

On the third day, the Empire Fleet finally encountered a decent battle.

The Dongtai Star Domain is the command hub of the Yunmeng Galaxy Southwest Military Region. There are a total of 600,000 elite fleets stationed here, all of which are military commanders Mesina Heltero urgently ordered to be summoned from his own jurisdiction!

Moreover, there is a complete star defense system here, and the large interstellar fortresses guarding the wormholes are all built according to the highest standards. As long as there is a corresponding number of fleets, the attacking side will not pay a huge price, and there is no hope of making breakthrough progress!

The forward fleet led by Gillard tried to attack once, but was shot back by the opponent's fortress main guns and the fleet's volley, and lost tens of thousands of warships!

A few hours later, the emperor's palace, Tengyuan, arrived near the battlefield surrounded by a large number of warships. After learning about the situation opposite the wormhole, Yun Haoyu ordered the offensive to be suspended and a military meeting in the imperial front was held.

In the conference room, all the military deployments of the Dongtai Star Domain were shown on the huge projection star map. From the above, it can be seen that the defense on the opposite side was extremely strict. In order to ensure that everything was foolproof, Messina pulled all four mobile interstellar fortresses at hand, plus three fixed fortresses, hundreds of thousands of warships, and the entire wormhole was surrounded!

"Messina is quite capable! She has been in the Imperial Army for decades and has fought many battles," Luo Hanxing explained:

"His family and the Queen Mother's family are in-laws, so the great purge in the army did not affect him. He is one of the few generals in the current Imperial Legion who can still be on the table! We want to win at a lower price, and it seems that there is little hope at the moment!"

Yun Haoyu asked, "In other words, persuading surrender is no longer feasible, we can only attack hard?"

"Your Majesty, with the technical means we have now, it is not difficult to break through the opponent's defense!" Tian Xuanhao said:

"I think that an attack should be launched as soon as possible! As long as this battle is completed, the resistance forces of the entire Southwest Military Region will be completely disintegrated! Dozens of star fields in a radius will become unprepared areas! Then we can continue to march quickly and annihilate them separately before the opponent's fleet gathers! Only in this way will the initiative continue to be in our hands!"

For the current Star Empire, the most important thing is time. The most reasonable choice is to clear the obstacles on the marching route as soon as possible, race against time, and make the other party have no time to organize enough power to fight back!

Guluns said: "I have no objection to General Tian's opinion!"

Yun Haoyu pondered for a moment and finally agreed: "Okay! According to the opinions of all the ministers, if you want to win such a big country, hard fights will be inevitable after all, and it is impossible to always take shortcuts!"
Chapter completed!
