âWe canât retreat!â
...
As soon as someone suggested retreating, Moro immediately stopped them, âWe canât let Ketherâs sacrifice be in vain. Besides, I have the strategistâs planâŠâ He thought carefully. The strategistâs tactics would suffice even against a late-stage Level 2 civilization, slightly stronger than them, not to mention an early-stage Level 2 one.
After all, in a situation where both sides are blind, they could easily infiltrate within a million kilometers of Earth if they split their forces.
As long as one warship penetrates, the war is won!
âCaptain, what did the strategist say to you in the infirmary?!â
Someone couldnât help but ask, unsure of what was happening.
âSecrets of heaven must not be disclosed!â
Moro shook his head, not intending to reveal anything. After a moment, he said, âYou all rest assured, the strategistâs plan is absolutely flawless. Even if this Pangu civilization possesses late-stage Level 2 technological level, they will certainly perishâŠâ
People looked at each other, somewhat incredulous, âThe enemy has hundreds of thousands of warships, while we have only a hundredâŠâ
âThese are all minor issues. Didnât the 9 warships of the 10th fleet take down tens of thousands of the enemyâs warships?!â
Moro dismissed the doubts, stating, âEverything is still within controllable range. Once the engineering ships are ready, you all will depart to support the frontlinesâŠâ
After finishing, he asked, âAny news from Seth?â
âNot yet, it will take at least three more hoursâŠâ
âUm, I hope theyâve managed to get information on the enemy robotsâ rulesâŠâ
âCommander, letâs retreat quickly!!!â
At the temporary base in the asteroid belt, all the captains of the fleets began to urge.
âThe enemy is clearly hiding their technological level. Theyâre already at the early stage of Level 2 now, who knows if they have mid-stage or even late-stage Level 2 technology?!â
âExactly, the technology level from Level 1 to Level 2 is difficult to breach, it might not be possible even in ten thousand years. But from the early stage of Level 2 to the mid-stage, it only needs a few hundred yearsâŠâ
Seth was also a bit hesitant. Seeing this, Miro at his side furiously said, âYou are quite daring. Who dares to retreat without my brotherâs orders?!â
âLord Miro, itâs not that we are afraid to die, itâs just that the enemyâs strength now greatly exceeds our previous understanding. If we continue with the previous combat plan, Iâm afraid we might be defeated hereâŠâ
âYes, this time, if it werenât for the 10th Fleet risking their lives, our entire fleet would likely have been doomedâŠâ
Many of the captains present felt fortunate. Thankfully, Moro was stubborn back then and had Kether break through, otherwise, if any of them had been there, they would be dead.
In fact, some captains even felt a bit of schadenfreude, thinking that with Kether dead, Moro must be heartbroken.
âWell, I donât care. I am also a deputy commander. Canât I manage you?â
âWithout my brotherâs orders, no one is allowed to retreat. The daily scheduled attacks must not stop!â
Miro said this and turned to look at Seth, saying coldly, âCommander Seth, donât forget how you got hereâŠâ
Sethâs expression changed slightly, and the hint of timidity in his heart gradually faded. He nodded, âEven if the enemy has the level of an early-stage Level 2 civilization, they are still far behind usâŠâ
âHow the war proceeds will be decided by the captain. As captains of our respective fleets, we should do our duty and follow ordersâŠâ
âUntil new instructions from Captain Moro arrive, everyone should act according to the original planâŠâ
âAlso, closely monitor the enemyâs movements. If any ships leave the Mars defense line, report it immediatelyâŠâ
Earth, Xia Du Base.
âSenator Chu, are you really going to the Moon?!â
Senator Zhou was somewhat surprised. He thought Senator Chu would stay on Earth. After all, he had consolidated all of Earth. Given this opportunity, he could easily stand in the first position.
âYes!â
Colonel Chu nodded, saying, âThe Moon has never openly recruited people. This time, they specifically want strategists with military skills, obviously wanting people from Earth to participate in this warâŠâ
âThis is a significant breakthrough for us. We can get closer to the Pangu civilization and understand more about the universeâŠâ
âWe need more information to know how to proceedâŠâ
Senator Sun couldnât help but say, âBut you donât have to go personally. Canât we just send some people from the think tank?!â
Colonel Chu shook his head slightly, âThey can strategize, but when it comes to critical decisions, they ultimately lack confidence. Only if I go myself can 1 be at easeâŠâ
Everyone understood his meaning. They were afraid that the strategists, not knowing how to choose in certain situations involving Earth, might harm the situation with good intentions.
âIn that case, we wonât try to persuade you any moreâŠâ
âWith Senator Chu there, we will feel a bit more at easeâŠâ
Senator Zhou thought for a moment and said, âSenator Chu, now that Earth is integrated, did the chief administrator on the Moon, Mr. Wu, say what we need to do?â
After thinking for a while, Senator Chu said, âFirst, maintain the status quo and distribute some benefits within limits. The rest will be discussed laterâŠâ
Just then, a councilor rushed in excitedly, âGood news, the fleet that attacked Earth has been destroyed!!â
âWhat?!â
Everyone quickly moved to the ground command center. After understanding the situation, they realized what had happened.
âThe tactic of Moroâs fleet is terrifying. They directly dragged down more than 10,000 warshipsâŠâ
â10,000 warships, many people must have died, rightâŠâ
âAlso, on the Mars defense line, another 20,000 warships were destroyed.
Altogether, maybe millions of people from the Pangu civilization have died to protect usâŠâ
âThisâŠâ
The crowd had complex emotions, a feeling that was hard to express.
âWe have always speculated about the actions of the Pangu civilization with the utmost malice, but we never expected them to make such a huge sacrifice to protect the Earthlingsâ
Several senators present felt a sense of shame.
âDonât feel too down, everyone. After all, we represent the Earth. Speculating with ill intent about the actions of the Pangu civilization is our duty and our mission.â
âYes, 1 understand. Itâs just that this feeling of guilt will linger with me for a long timeâŠâ
Senator Sun turned to Colonel Chu and said, âWhen you go to the Moon, remember to mention to them that if they trust us, we can recruit soldiers from the Earth. Even if they go to the front lines, itâs possibleâŠâ
âYes, protecting the Earth shouldnât mean only their people have to dieâŠâ
Colonel Chu nodded and said, âI know. If 1 get the chance, I will bring it upâŠâ
At that moment, a spaceship landed outside the base.
Before long, someone came to report, âReport, the Pangu civilization has come to pick up the strategist to go to the MoonâŠâ
âWait a moment, weâll be right out!â
After Colonel Chu said those words, he looked at the people and said, âThe
Earth now entrust to all of youâŠâ
With that, accompanied by a dozen strategists who were already prepared, he walked out together..
