Chapter 921 Announcement from the Joint Government Spokesperson
If the star map of the United Government is flattened and regarded as a big pie.
From the center of the pie to the outside, there are the central star field, the middle star field, and the outer star field.
And the outermost edge of the outer star field, the edge star field that directly borders the star field controlled by alien creatures.
The alien battlefield at the forefront is the so-called edge star field.
The member states of the edge star field are directly facing the threat of the alien army, and basically it is difficult to develop in terms of population and economy.
As a member of the Black Gold Alliance of the edge star field, Liu Cheng, the ruler of the Black Gold Alliance, has a deep understanding of this.
Not only do they have to bear the responsibility of the walls and moats for the entire United Government to protect them from being harassed by the alien army, but they also have no advantage in terms of taxation and policies.
Therefore, even the rulers and interstellar nobles of the member states of the edge star field will not be regarded as qualified to sit on an equal footing with them by the interstellar nobles in the middle and outer star fields.
The interstellar nobles in the medium star field and the outer star field have always looked down on and had some prejudice against the rulers of the member states in the edge star field.
Now, after learning from Gary that the top leaders of the United Government had secretly issued an order for all garrisons to retreat to the outer star field and shrink the defense line.
Liu Cheng and others were hard not to be surprised.
An official of the Black Gold Alliance who was already present said angrily:
"Damn special councillors, they are simply ungrateful for doing this!!
So many member states in the edge star field have paid so much for the United Government, and they actually said they would abandon them!!"
This involves their fundamental interests. As a member of the Black Gold Alliance, it is difficult for people around Liu Cheng to remain calm.
Although Liu Cheng remained silent, he was also very unhappy in his heart.
He was very dissatisfied with the decision made by the top leaders of the United Government.
He looked at the head of the Gary Wei Corps and asked:
"Captain Gary Wei Corps, you said this to me, do you mean to say goodbye and leave too?"
In fact, the Gary Wei Corps has already paid a lot for the development of their Black Gold Alliance.
Whether it was during the previous defense of the Black Stone Kingdom or now.
If Garyway really planned to withdraw with the entire corps, Liu Cheng would not blame them.
But in this way, their Black Gold Alliance Army would become a lone army, and the pressure of defense would be even greater.
Hearing Liu Cheng's inquiry, Garyway shook his head and said:
"No.
The reason why I revealed the order issued by the top leaders of the United Government Army to you is to let you have a psychological preparation in advance.
After a night of consideration, I and the officers of my corps decided to violate the orders issued by the superiors and stay in the Black Sand Star Region.
Our Garyway Corps and your Black Gold Alliance will advance and retreat together."
Hearing this, Liu Cheng and others were still quite moved.
After all, the country is in crisis, and everyone wants someone to help them resist the alien army.
No one wants to sacrifice their own lives.
If the Garyway Corps leaves the Black Sand Star Region and retreats to the outer star region, it is hard to say whether they will be destroyed by the Terra Zerg army.
But it is definitely extremely safe in the short term.
Besides, the soldiers of the Garywei Corps are different from those of the Black Gold Alliance.
Most of their homes are in other star regions of the United Government.
Encircling the Black Gold Alliance does not mean directly encircling their own homes.
Garywei and the officers around him could not fail to understand this.
The reason why they insisted on making the current decision must be that they were under great pressure.
Liu Cheng was about to say something to express his gratitude when he was interrupted by the head of the Garywei Corps.
Gary said:
"There is no need to say more words of thanks.
The reason why I decided to stay is the same as when I decided to help you when I was still in the Black Stone Kingdom.
We are soldiers of the United Government, and also soldiers of mankind.
It is the responsibility of us soldiers to protect the residents of the United Government and all mankind from being killed by alien creatures.
If you had not fought side by side with the residents of the Black Stone Kingdom, it would prove that you are not a group of interstellar refugees composed of criminals as the top leaders of the United Government said.
I would not have resolutely stayed in the Black Sand Star Region to help you.
The reason I stayed now is the same as it was then.
Your Black Gold Alliance and Aocheng Group have proven through years of hard work and development that you have the strength and willpower to resist the Terra Zerg army.
You are not only legal citizens of the United Government, but also pay for the protection of all mankind. Soldiers who have worked hard and sweated hard.
I, Gary, cannot abandon so many of your excellent soldiers to the Terra Zerg, and our Corps retains its strength to escape alone.
The officers around me cannot do it either.
All the officers and soldiers of my Corps cannot do such a cowardly thing.
Rather than disobeying orders and retreating to the outer star field behind, it is more wrong to let you excellent human warriors be killed by alien creatures in vain.
As long as your Black Gold Alliance exists for one day, as long as you have not lost the will to fight against alien creatures.
Our 9728 Corps will stay and fight with you to the end.
Until the battle is left with only one person in our 9278 Corps. "
After listening to Gary's words, Liu Cheng understood the determination and will of Gary and his Corps soldiers to fight on.
Liu Cheng thanked again and said:
"On behalf of the hundreds of people on the planets of the Black Gold Alliance, thank you for the efforts of the 9728th Corps!"
Just as Liu Cheng and Gary were about to finish their conversation, an official of the Black Gold Alliance who was following Liu Cheng and was also a senior executive of the Aocheng Group received an urgent message from the group.
He opened his arm computer and his expression changed immediately.
He didn't care that the people from the 9728th Corps were still present, and walked up to Liu Cheng and said:
"Lord Tucheng, it's not good."
Liu Cheng asked in confusion:
"What major event happened?"
The man replied that it was about the United Government.
After that, he directly projected the video onto the holographic projection table in Gary's office, so that everyone present could watch the live broadcast.
In the live broadcast, a female spokesperson in a professional space suit said to the live camera:
"......The above are all major crises that our United Government and even the entire human race are facing.
For all the above reasons, our special councilors at the top of the United Government have discussed and decided:
In order to protect the lives and property of more residents in the middle star field and the outer star field;
In order to preserve the strength of the army and be able to launch a long-term war of attrition with the Terra Zerg;
For the continuation of the fate of all mankind.
From now on, all legion fleets stationed in the edge star field will be evacuated to the nearest outer star field.
Abandon all edge star field territories and shorten the overall length of the battle line.
The current outer star field will be used as the front line of the United Government to defend the main force of the Terra Zerg."
