Chapter 1424: Making Matters Worse
The members of the Saruman Snake fleet were exceptionally calm. This was the first time the young wise ones were experiencing a space battle, but they were calm like experienced warriors. Their eyes were glimmering with wisdom and curiosity. It was hard to say if the situation was bad or good, but at least when communicating with them, Xie Yuxin felt the stability in their condition and spiritual power. This would help in his commanding and the carrying out of orders. Suddenly, Xie Yuxin liked these guys. Xie Yuxin himself was the opposite of Wang Zheng in that he did not like to be excited. This applied for everything. Once you saw past the true nature of things, they were all the same. The wise ones were the same as him, hence he liked them.
To be able to fight alongside them, even if they died, it was worth it. The last bit of smile that was on Xie Yuxin’s face vanished.
The battle was about to begin.
Drachmach gave the order for Zhang Yunfeng’s seventh fleet to battle. It did not matter if they were cannon fodder – this was an order, and this was a battlefield. There had to be sacrifices, and someone had to take the lead.
If Zhang Yunfeng started the battle, it would allow the Titans to get used to the battlefield. As for what would happen, it depends on Xie Yuxin.
The Darkness Empire seemed to have no intention of attacking. Laboge was waiting. The Darkness Empire was smarter, and more ruthless. If there were no casualties on the main battlefield, there was no rush.
As for orders?
You must be joking, the lives of the Darkness Empire’s warriors were priceless. These orders were unable to control the Darkness Empire.
The Darkness Empire did not move. Zhang Yunfeng was not stupid and was now less anxious. Him leading the fleet into the enemy’s territory and fighting?
Even if Drachmach was his father, he would not obey!
Obviously, to prevent trouble, Zhang Yunfeng pretended to fight and ordered his units to fire a few cannons.
While the situation was unclear, he would not pick sides. Zhang Yunfeng knew in his heart that he would only stand on the side of the winners. If the Solar System was defeated, he would have to choose the best opportunity to backstab them. The Darkness Empire’s invasion needed some time, so if there was hope for the Solar System, it would not be too late for him either.
Either way, he would not lose.
Alan Berg understood the situation, but he could do nothing about it. When the two sides were fighting, everything depended on the strength of both sides, and now the Darkness Empire was stronger, so what could he do?
“Order the 115th and 879th fleets to attack, initiating Plan Light K!”
“Yes, Commander-in-chief!”
The order went out. The Maacah Republic began to fight seriously. Countless mech warriors and unmanned mecha were deployed from the battleships and flew towards the Solar System Federation. Judging from the numbers, they seemed to have the advantage, as the coalition forces had more people.
Drachmach’s eyes were red. On an instant, more than 100 battleships were destroyed. He had yet to rest well in the past few days. His life did not matter, because if they failed, he would be the greatest criminal in the history of the Solar System, the humiliation of the century. No matter how much the Solar System had declined, it had yet to be occupied. Drachmach Doyle, from the great Doyle family of the Moon, would he be the first failure?
Drachmach was willing to give anything for this battle’s victory.
When the orders were passed down, the people of the Moon and Martians were the same, giving it their all. A bloodbath was taking place.
Achilles and Lie Xin were the same. Out on the battlefield, they were not of much use to the ship. As mech warriors, leading the ground troops would be better for morale, and their battle strengths were exceptional. In a space battle, the function of a mech warrior was equally important. In the previous battle, Zhang Shan had created a miracle. Everyone thought that he was finished, but he had managed to destroy an enemy’s planetary level battleship and return safely. This inspired Achilles and Lie Xin. Zhang Shan was undoubtedly influenced by Wang Zheng the most. He was never bound by the rules, and managed to fight to his greatest potential.
This was what they hoped to do.
However, this time, Zhang Shan did not have the chance to be deployed. He was stuck in Zhang Yunfeng’s main battleship. Zhang Shan’s achievement was counted under Zhang Yunfeng, as he was under him. Glory belonged to the collective. Even if he was scared of death, the protection of an additional super soldier was good for him.
For this, Zhang Yunfeng had a deep conversation with Zhang Shan. He felt that Zhang Shan was a smart kid. If Zhang Shan followed him, he would have a bright future. There was no need to take risks, as they only had one life.
This time, it was not possible for Zhang Shan to go against orders and leave on his own. He could only stay on the ship.
Iyerta Laboge was watching the invasion. The main battlefield was relatively intense. The number of casualties was now significant, and it was time for them to strike. If Maacah’s losses were too great, it would not be good for the battle.
“All great warriors of the Darkness Empire, listen to your hearts. Today is the day we occupy the Solar System. The great Darkness Empire must dominate the Milky Way Alliance. Our target: the Saruman Snake fleet. Attack!”
The Darkness Empire’s fleet began their attack. They moved towards the direction of the Saruman Snake fleet. The Darkness Empire’s fleet was three times the size of the Saruman Snake fleet, and they completely ignored Zhang Yunfeng’s seventh fleet???
This kind of large movement could be seen throughout the battlefield.
Drachmach’s heart froze. The main battlefield was a cruel bloodbath, and he could not take any form of intervention anymore. “General Zhang Yunfeng, immediately intercept the Darkness Empire’s fleet and flank them from the back!”
Before he could finish his words, the signal was cut. Drachmach’s expression was as pale as it could be. Even with his temperament, he could not help but curse. That b*stard, he dared to back off at the last minute!
Yes, the seventh fleet did not move out. He had to be kidding. Zhang Yunfeng had not planned to move from the start. He had achieved a mutual understanding with Iyerta Laboge, to not make any big moves.
The warriors in the seventh fleet saw it. Wang Zheng was the pride of Earth, the hero in every warrior’s heart. Fighting alongside Wang Zheng had raised the morale of Earth’s warriors. How could they not move when they had received the orders to do so???
Not attacking when given such an opportunity?
Trap? Was the enemy baiting them into attacking?
Even if it was true, at this point in time, they could only attack!
Even a pig would have known that this is the time to strike, but the order from the commander was to wait for an opportunity!
Drachmach was so angry that he puked blood. It was an Earthling once again, dragging them down in the critical moment. They were going to send the Solar System to its death.
Meng Ao tried dialing the communications continuously, but the other side refused to pick up. Meng Ao had given up on cleaning the rest of the conservative faction for the sake of unity, as any major movements would be risky, but this turned out to be worse than expected. When everyone was united, Zhang Yunfeng stabbed them in the back.
Was the Solar System fated to be destroyed?
