"Listen, if you don't want to tell me, forget it." Richard waved with apparent annoyance
"Haha, who said I don't want to tell you? Your father actually said the same words. He said that if we defeat the five fleets and only cause some damage to them, they will return with Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free! He has been facing a big dilemma since hearing about the size of the enemy's forces." Caesar then nodded and looked towards the horizon, "What I know is that he said that the goal of the war was not to destroy the enemy fleets, but to completely defeat the Great Serpent Empire so that they would never think of returning again, or at least cause so much damage that it would take several centuries to recover before they think about coming back."
"And the solution, in his opinion, is..?" Richard furrowed his eyebrows, knowing how difficult such a decision would be if he were to be in the same position
"The solution he has come up with so far, which we strongly oppose, is to continue with the blockade plan, but instead of approaching and destroying them in the central region, he wants us to close all paths to them but not cause them any serious damage until they are sure that the presence of only 5 fleets will not do them any good, then they will ask for Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free!.. According to his words, their request for Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free! He said that if we eliminate 10 fleets, it will be a very painful blow that will make them forget about us for a long time, or lose hope immediately."
"...My father thought about all that? He wants to calm down the game so he can draw more of them..." Richard looked down, knowing that he wouldn't have thought of such a plan if he were in his place, then asked again, "Why are you opposing it then? I don't see a problem with it. Do you have better solutions?"
"It is not that we have any plan. All we have is one question: What if the next Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free! This leaves 19 fleets spread across four other planets where they are currently at war."
Then he turned to Richard, "How many of those 19 fleets will come, Richard? Or we can say how many of the 25 fleets If we include the defense fleets in the equation... I know that they need large forces back to suppression and oppression, With a simple calculation, it can really be said that they will definitely send 5 fleets at a maximum, but do we really know their conditions there? In the end, we will not put our hands on anyone with real authority... With some luck and the advantage of territory, we can deal with 10 fleets at once. If the number of enemies reaches 15 fleets, the result is unknown. And if we win, it will be through sacrifices, too many of them... Your father wants to bet that the enemy is smart and will follow common sense. What if they are hooligans like me and send large numbers of fleets at once?! The entire high command says that your father is taking a lot of risks. What do you think?" Caesar shook his head. This is the topic that occupied the minds and mouths of the high command during the past period
Richard paused, and then a strange smile appeared on his face
A smile that Caesar did not know was sadness, reassurance, or pride as if it was a mixture of all of them, so he did not restrain himself except to ask, "What is wrong with this face of yours?"
"Hehe, it's nothing, just something suddenly came to mind.." Richard waved and shook his head, "My father built an Empire in a few decades, an Empire that can defend against 1,500 Martial Emperors and 2 million Law-Using soldiers. Could you please take a moment to comprehend these numbers? We didn't have a single Martial Emperor in the Ancestral Continent... The king of the Black Sun Kingdom himself was a level 33 Sage... Without realizing it, that man achieved something that no sane person would dare to dream about... And you're asking ME about my opinion of HIS plan, haha, man, just let him do what he sees appropriate."
Caesar's serious facial expressions relaxed a little, "I am glad that this has become your view of your father."
"I never doubted that he was a great man. It's just that this greatness has side effects that destroy the lives of many... Forget it~" Richard stopped laughing and scratched his head in embarrassment, then tapped Caesar on the shoulder, "Come on, let's continue our tour and Tell me about those forces present in the southern region on the way."
----------------------------
Planet Nihari-- The border between the central and southern regions
"We are about to enter the southern region. There may or may not be resistance, but we must be at our best anyway... Is everyone ready?" General Dirit spoke in a low voice. He was in the cockpit of the mothership of his fleet, in a completely quiet environment, surrounded by a number of communications devices and a crew of 4 very beautiful girls, However, he still seemed extremely nervous.
"My fleet is ready for engagement." One of the communication devices around him lit up for a moment, and General Parrs's voice came from it
"So do I. The southern region will be ours today."
"Leave the left front to my fleet and forget about it."
The quick and reassuring responses made General Dirit take a deep breath, but a new voice appeared that disturbed his mood again, "You will pay for this! I swear, you will pay for this!!" It was General Sully's voice!
General Dayrit showed an annoyed expression, "I thought we had resolved this dispute, Mr. Sully. If you don't like the lineup, that's fine. Please return to the safe zone and we will take care of the rest."
"You bastards! I will not forgive you! Just wait until the rest of my fleet returns!!" Sully's voice did not seem to calm down at all but rather became more agitated
Before setting off, the other four generals agreed that their fleets would take the shape of an inverted crescent, with the two heads of the crescent facing the southern region. In this way, the two fleets on the flanks would fight, and the two fleets in the rear would function as continuous Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free! They could also use this formation as a siege trap if the enemy tried to advance too far. In addition, the two fleets in the back will serve as a headquarters to monitor the situation and plan the battle without interference... It is a basic formation of the Great Serpent Empire.
The problem with General Sully is that he wanted to be in the middle of the crescent and act like a commander since he is the oldest among them in terms of rank and his fleet is the strongest, but he was surprised that he was placed in the front, exactly between the two pointed points of the crescent. This undoubtedly makes him the spearhead in any battle. It can be exaggerated and said that he is being used as a scapegoat!
The problem is that when he objected, the four generals rejected his presence and told him to stay behind to guard the safe area, but what would he say to the high command later if he skipped the battles in the south and stayed behind playing?!
"Haha, Brother Sully, you are in the best place to achieve the most achievements, congratulations!" A voice came from one of the transmitters and he burst out laughing
"Haha.. hmm? Look at the horizon, gentlemen, wasn't the sky blue all the way? Why was it brown? Is this something specific to the southern region?"
"...No, no, look carefully, there is a blue color faintly appearing from the edges of that brown horizon."
Vanguard Team Leader Seagal narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered, "...This is not the horizon, this looks like... A tree?"
