Chapter 261
December 5, 2022 in the Galactic calendar
With the help of the Blue Kite Legion, they repaired the starship and found a fleet of the Six Princes of Huggins that could sail back to the CIS of the Nine Kings Nebula.
After a week-long voyage, he finally returned to his kingdom.
It's just that the information obtained by the six princes of Huggins is very not optimistic.
"The line of defense has been completely broken, and the twenty-three galaxies on the border have fallen?" said the six princes of Huggins, communicating with a white-skinned woman in disbelief.
The skin is very pale, and the head is also covered with white hair, giving people a sickly beauty.
"Yes, after Brother Huggins, you lost your news. The frontal battlefield quickly collapsed, the defensive line was completely breached, and finally the high command of both kingdoms gave orders.
Have all the starships retreat from the lost line of defense and form a second line of defense in the back. "The woman who called the six princes of Huggins her brother.
The identity is not simple, she is Princess Hafes, the seventh heir to the Chiyao Kingdom, and she is the half-sister of Huggins, although in terms of appearance, the skin color of the two is not similar at all.
But it's true.
"What about the planets that were abandoned! Don't they know what the consequences of giving up those planets would be!
Even if they were evacuated, in such a short period of time, the civilians on those planets would not be able to completely withdraw to the rear!" said the six princes of Huggins excitedly.
Because they have been at war with the alien zerg for many years, they and the Northern Fleet also know what the price will be when a planet falls into the hands of those alien zergs.
Princess Hafes hesitated for a moment and whispered, "You don't have to worry about this, brother, when you evacuate." At the same time, the Obsidian Kingdom and the Hazlit Kingdom issued a 'Zero Plan' for the abandoned planets. "
"'Zero-out plan'!" Huggins' pupils dilated, and the shock in his eyes could be seen.
Because he knows the cruelty of this plan!
Regarding the characteristics of the alien Zerg, the senior management of the Nine Kings Cloud CIS is naturally very clear, and as early as hundreds of years ago, they formulated a 'zero plan' action plan.
The content is very simple, that is, when a planet is inevitably going to be invaded by alien zergs.
The planet will emit a toxic gas that will spread to all living things on the planet within an hour.
Over the course of an hour, all the cells in the planet's body harden and become stone-like.
In this way, you can avoid the alien Zerg from relying on the creatures on the planet to continue to reproduce and grow their alien Zerg after occupying the planet.
At the same time, it is also possible not to destroy the buildings and resources on this planet as much as possible, and when the alien Zerg is driven away one day in the future, the planet can be restored to the situation before the fall with little effort.
This is the 'zero-COVID plan'.
Simple content, but directly strangle all life on the entire planet!
After this plan was proposed, it was opposed by many people, who considered it inhumane.
But in the end, it was passed among the leaders of the Nine Kings Cloud CIS that the nine interstellar kingdoms must start this plan when faced with this situation.
Because of this plan, the Nine Kings Cloud CIS also spent another decade installing this biological and chemical weapon device on numerous planets.
This ensures that the entire 'zero-clearance plan' on the planet can be completed within three hours if it is confirmed that the planet cannot be saved.
"Twenty-three galaxies, hundreds of billions of lives!" the six princes of Huggins slammed their fists on the table in front of them, their expressions pained.
Princess Hafis looked at her brother's appearance, she also felt distressed, among the many brothers and sisters, it was Brother Huggins who had the best relationship with her, mainly because Brother Huggins was different from ordinary royal nobles, he had his own ideals and principles!
Princess Hafez said comfortingly: "Brother Hudgens, don't blame yourself, although this kind of thing is very cruel, but there is no way to do it."
If the alien zerg gets those people in the galaxy as their own food, then the next will be a great disaster for our Chiyao Kingdom. "
The Six Princes of Huggins didn't speak, although he knew that this was true, but at the same time he was also thinking about if they had the same strength as the Green Kite Legion.
Will it become the current situation?
Those planets will need to be abandoned and the damn 'zero-COVID plan' will be carried out.
The frontal defense line on their side is only facing a fleet of 50,000 hives, and the Green Kite Legion is even more than them.
What's more, they still have a defensive line to defend, and they have rushed directly to the territory of the alien Zerg to attack!
"By the way, didn't you ask for support from the other kingdoms?" asked the six princes of Huggins, frowning.
The Nine Kings Nebula is the CIS, which represents the nine interstellar kingdoms.
This time, on their side, it was the Red Obsidian Kingdom and the Hazlit Kingdom that were facing the attack of the alien zerg, in addition to the other seven interstellar kingdoms.
According to the alliance agreement established between them, they must provide a certain amount of military assistance to each other in times of danger and difficulty.
They are also connected to each other by stargates, and more than a week is more than enough time to send the fleet to support.
Princess Hafez replied helplessly: "The seven outer kingdoms are all in a similar situation to us now. Fourth, the large insect nest has been very active in recent times.
And the spatial fluctuations detected on the side of the Great Rift Valley are also getting stronger and stronger, and researchers in multiple kingdoms have speculated that this will be a new round of insect waves.
So everyone is now sweeping the snow in front of their own doors and ensuring the safety of their borders first.
As for the two kingdoms in the inner circle, don't you know what virtues they have, brother?
Because of the relationship between the interstellar territories of their own safety, they have always been building starships on their own, unless they really threaten their own security, they don't even think about sending their own fleets to support the battlefield. "
The six princes of Huggins had a solemn expression.
rumble
Suddenly, the six princes of Huggins heard a loud noise, and then communication with his sister was interrupted.
"What's going on??," the six princes of Huggins hurriedly questioned their subordinates.
"The report is a movement from the front line of defense. Among them was the T4 Hive Starship, which directly destroyed one of our Star Fortresses, and that movement was caused by the explosion of the Star Fortress!" the subordinate reported.
Another round of new offensive began.
Although they knew that this situation was very bad, the six princes of Huggins had expected it for a long time, after all, these alien zergs did not know what contentment was.
As long as there are enough troops, they will launch a steady stream of attacks, endlessly, like mosquitoes and cockroaches that cannot be killed.
Drip, drip, drip
At this time, communication with his sister, Princess Hafes, was restored.
"Hafez, are you alright!" The six princes of Huggins were concerned about his sister's situation, because his sister's fleet was now also on the defensive line.
It is estimated that the communication terminal was caused by the explosion.
Princess Hafez shook her head and said, "I don't have any problems here, but the situation on the defensive line is not optimistic. "
"I'm already in the rear of the defense line now, I'll rush over right now! Sister, you must pay attention to your own safety!"
"Okay. "
The six princes of Huggins hurriedly ordered the fleet to speed up and rush to the defense line.
However, his dozen or so starships really didn't help much for the defense line.
Next, the second joint defense line formed by the Chiyao Kingdom and the Hazlit Kingdom was fiercely attacked by the alien Zerg.
On the defensive line, the flames of war can be seen everywhere.
And the attack of the alien zerg is constantly approaching, gradually narrowing the depth of defense on the defensive line.
And the fleets of the two kingdoms are constantly retreating, constantly retreating.
Relying on this 'kite-flying' tactic, coupled with the fortifications deployed in advance along the way, to consume the alien zerg.
Unfortunately, their firepower is too insufficient.
In addition, among the alien zergs, three T4 hive starships appeared at the same time this time, which was equivalent to three heavy cannons, constantly bombarding the defense lines of the armies of the two kingdoms.
Six hours later, a hole was opened in the defense line, and the kingdom fleet sent starships to support, but this situation could not fill the gap at all, but watched the gap continue to expand!
The flagship of the Obsidian Kingdom.
"Damn! how can this be!" a man who looked similar to the six princes of Huggins was sulking in the captain's chair at the moment, his expression very tangled.
On the side, Princess Haphis, who had communicated with the six princes of Huggins six hours ago, was standing next to her.
She is the secretary of this starship, and the man in front of her is her fourth brother.
The four princes of the Chiyao Kingdom, the four princes of Harps.
The Four Princes of Hapus are also the commanders of the fleet of the Red Obsidian Kingdom in this battle against the Alien Zerg.
"Report, there is a message from the Commander of the Fleet of the Hazlitt Kingdom that we should now withdraw from the battlefield and abandon this system.
Re-form a third line of defense in the rear!" Princess Hafez said with a complicated expression.
She was very disgusted by the content of this communication.
But as secretary, she had to convey this information to the fleet commander.
"Are you going to retreat again?" the four princes of Harps hesitated.
Princess Hafez looked at her fourth brother's expression, and she was a little irritable.
There is nothing wrong with the fourth brother, but he is too hesitant, and no matter what he does, he is worried that he will take risks and do the wrong thing.
This kind of stability seems to outsiders, but for those who are familiar with the four princes of Happs, it is actually a mistake made by the four princes of Happs who did not dare to take the wrong choice.
In comparison, the sixth brother Huggins is more courageous.
"Fourth brother, no matter what decision you make, please hurry up! Now is not the time to hesitate. Princess Hafez couldn't help but remind.
Whether it is retreating or holding the defensive line, at this time, you should make a choice as soon as possible, rather than hesitating there.
"Don't rush me, I'm the commander, I want to think about the whole fleet, such a big decision can't be made in a moment!" the four princes of Harps couldn't help but snarl at their sister, their expressions tangled.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Princess Hafes's eyes.
"Brother Huggins has returned to our fleet and is now fighting on the defensive line, if you can't make a decision, you can discuss it with him. Princess Hafez reminded.
"That's right, Huggins is too!" The four princes of Harps's eyes lit up, and immediately agreed to the decision to discuss this matter with Huggins, and asked Princess Hudis to contact his sixth brother.
I didn't feel ashamed at all because I couldn't make a decision, and I had to discuss this matter with my sixth brother.
What he thinks about now is that with his sixth brother arriving, he will make the decision when the time comes, no matter what it is, it will be himself and the sixth brother who will take responsibility at that time!
Soon, the communication was connected.
The four princes of Haups first expressed their joy that their brother had returned safely, and then told his brother about the proposal to evacuate the fleet of the Kingdom of Hazlit again.
But what I didn't expect was that this time it was strongly opposed by the six princes of Huggins!
"No! in this situation, we still have the strength to fight, how can we retreat!" objected to the sixth prince of Huggins.
"But...... It's really hard to hold the line...... The enemy has a fleet of 40,000 hives and three T4 hive ships.
And there are only two T4 starships on our side of the battlefield!" "The Fourth Prince of Hapus said: "And this is something proposed by the fleet of the Hazlitt Kingdom, I think it makes a lot of sense, we can form a third joint defense line in the rear!"
The six princes of Huggins directly raised their hands and opened a holographic projection of the star map.
"Fourth brother, have you ever thought about it. The fleet of the Hazlitt Kingdom can retreat, and they don't have much loss after retreating! But when we retreat, what do we give up?
The next few galaxies we are going to give up occupy nearly one-third of the raw material-producing planets of our Obsidian Kingdom, and nearly half of the industrial base!
If we lose these, our Chiyao Kingdom will be greatly damaged! If we can't recover it for a long time in the future, it will be a catastrophe for our kingdom!" said the six princes of Huggins.
Princess Hafes, who was standing beside the fourth prince of Haups, was dazzled, thinking that what her sixth brother said was very reasonable.
"But the fleet on this line ......," the four princes of Harbus hesitated.
"Now the two kingdoms on our defense line have a total of 30 legion fleets and nearly 10,000 starships. As long as we hold the line, we can hold out for at least a few more days.
In the course of a few days, we will request support from the country.
In our two kingdoms, we can also send at least 10 legion fleets to support us, as well as a large number of strategic material supplies.
Relying on these, I believe we will be able to hold on!" said the six princes of Huggins with conviction.
The fourth prince of Harps hesitated for a moment, and he said, "This ...... I need to talk to the commander of the Hazlit Kingdom. "
The sixth prince of Huggins knew the temper of his fourth brother, so he could only urge the fourth brother to confirm this matter as soon as possible.
But soon, a reply came from the Hazlitt Kingdom.
No matter what attitude the Chiyao Kingdom has, after an hour, their Hazlit Kingdom's fleet will choose to evacuate.
"Bastards, bastards!" the six princes of Huggins cursed there!
The fourth prince of Harpers looked at his sixth brother helplessly: "In this situation, we have no choice. "
"Can't withdraw! Fourth brother really can't withdraw!" "The sixth prince of Huggins is still struggling to persuade his brother.
"Sixth, I think you are too pessimistic, and a temporary retreat will not have much impact. "
But the fourth prince of Haups was already impatient, so he transferred the communication window to his sister Hafes and went to handle the evacuation himself.
"Sixth brother, this is ...... It seems that there is really no way. Princess Hafez looked at her sixth brother dejectedly.
Huggins' expression was complicated, and suddenly he exclaimed: "Yes, there is another way, and there is someone who can save us!"
"Who?" Princess Hafez looked at her excited sixth brother in surprise, who else could help them at this time?
"The Green Kite Legion, the Green Kite Legion of the Galactic Alliance!" the eyes of the six princes of Huggins were excited, as if they had seen an oasis in the desert.
But Princess Hafez is dumbfounded, Galactic Alliance?
The interstellar power that records show to be only moderate?
Can they help themselves?
Princess Hafez herself, is her sixth brother already at the point of being sick and rushing to the doctor?
