The news of the complete destruction of the Onorman system spread quickly, but Barkley had never been to the first star, so the news of his death did not spread, and not many people even knew if he was alive. For the members of the family, all they need to care about is the war between the two intelligent civilizations.

And, of course, human civilization.

To Chu Tianjiang's slight surprise, before the news spread, the representatives of the Debaran civilization claimed that they had destroyed the Onovan system.

Obviously, this was done to prove the strength of the Debarans, and to convince other intelligent civilizations that the Debarangs could defeat the Onorians.

It's just that when human civilization joined the war and captured the major star systems controlled by the Ernovan in a very short period of time, the Debaran people could not sit still. More importantly, more and more representatives of intelligent civilization believe that it was not the Debarans who defeated the Honorians, but the human race. Even some family members believe that it was Arleigh who attacked the Onovan system and killed Buckley in this way. That is, when the Onorman system collapsed into a black hole, Barkley did not escape in time.

All in all, human civilization has once again become the focus of attention.

Ali did not return to the first star, and all the messages were sent back by Iska.

Although the strength of human civilization has been proven after the victory over the Arcadians, no intelligent civilization dares to underestimate human civilization, but destroying the Onovan system in one fell swoop, defeating the Onovan civilization, and capturing the main star system of the Onuoman at a speed that the Debarão people can't catch up, more directly proves the strength of human civilization and shows the war strength of human civilization.

More importantly, human civilization has established an alliance of intelligent civilizations.

This is undoubtedly a great temptation for those weak and intelligent civilizations that are close to the birthplace of human civilization, because taking refuge in human civilization means that security is guaranteed, it means that it will not be invaded, and it also means that it can gain some benefits from the expansion war launched by human civilization. Even the most basic security is much better than getting involved in a war and being completely destroyed by a powerful and intelligent civilization.

All of a sudden, hundreds of representatives of intelligent civilizations took the initiative to find Iskar and put forward a request to join the alliance.

Of course, these representatives of intelligent civilization all know what price it takes to join this alliance of intelligent civilizations dominated by human civilization.

However, at the time of contact, these representatives made some requests.

It had to do with the treatment that civilizations enjoyed in the Alliance, and most prominently, most of the delegates believed that they should be treated the same as the Arcadians.

Obviously, this is a problem that cannot be ignored.

Even those intelligent civilizations that have joined the Alliance consider their treatment inferior to the Arcadians and is the greatest insult to them.

Although the Arcadian civilization was once very powerful, they lost the war and lost to the human civilization, and they were treated better than their allies. If in this way, more benefits can be obtained, then why should other intelligent civilizations join the alliance? Anyway, after the defeat, they can survive, and get better treatment, it is better to go to war with human civilization.

Of course, Zhang Xiaogang would never let such a thing happen.

In the Onovan War, Zhang Xiaogang's order was very clear, to eliminate all Onovan people, leaving no one behind, as a warning to those allies who were not very peaceful.

To put it bluntly, the complete destruction of the Onovan civilization is to tell other intelligent civilizations that losing to human civilization in a war may not be able to obtain the right to live, and what is obtained is likely to be completely destroyed, and human beings will definitely not preserve every defeated intelligent civilization.

It's just that Zhang Xiaogang also knows that this kind of tough way cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

To put it bluntly, if the status of an ally is inferior to that of a dependent intelligent civilization, the value of the alliance itself will be questioned, and problems will arise.

In the end, Zhang Xiaogang made a concession, that is, he promised to give equal status to all allied intelligent civilizations.

In other words, as long as these intelligent civilizations degenerate into a state of natural evolution and give their main resources to human civilization, they can participate in the development of star systems and trade with human civilization. Of course, these intelligent civilizations must abide by the rules of the game set by human civilization, such as the use of a unified currency, the observance of decrees issued by the authorities of human civilization, and the acceptance of a status inferior to human civilization.

As for the intelligent civilizations of those who wish to join the alliance, they will also be treated equally.

It's just that in this way, the already prominent problem has now become more acute.

That is, in addition to creating a living environment for the 100 trillion Arcadians, it is also necessary to consider the trillions of individuals of the dozens of intelligent civilizations in the alliance, as well as the tens of trillions of individuals of the more than 100 intelligent civilizations who are ready to join the alliance, and provide them with space for survival and development.

More than 1,000 star systems from the Honorians are extremely important.

Without these star systems, the Alliance would not have enough living space to meet the survival needs of all intelligent civilizations, and it would not be able to continue to sustain itself.

The problem is that human civilization is not the only powerful being.

In the fight for these star systems, human civilization will inevitably encounter the Debarans and have a war with the Debarans.

This has already happened, and the situation is extremely tragic.

In a star system called Kata, the human legions encountered the legions of the Debarans, and war broke out immediately. Due to insufficient preparation, it is accurate to say that the arrival of the Debarãns was not expected to be so soon, and the five legions that arrived first were almost completely annihilated. It took two additional twenty legions to turn the tide of battle, and the invading Debarangs were finally defeated.

For the sake of this star system, human civilization has lost nearly 100,000 warriors.

Although the losses of the Debarão were even heavier, with at least a million soldiers killed, the military strength of the Debarão was much greater than that of human civilization.

What's more, by the end of the war, the Kata system had little development value.

The Kata system is not the only one that has been severely damaged by humanity's war with the Debarans, there are dozens of other star systems that have experienced similar situations.

If the Debarans cannot be completely defeated, the benefits of human civilization in the Onovan War will be greatly reduced.

If you want to defeat the Debarans once and for all, you will have to attack the native star system of the Debarans!

It's just that the problem is not that simple.

In the previous war with the Honorians, the home system of the Debarão was destroyed, and tens of trillions of Debarão were killed in a surprise attack. The Debarang people learned this lesson and no longer regarded a certain star system as a base camp, but distributed it evenly in almost all star systems, at most using some larger, more resource-rich star systems as their main base, and then expanding outward.

About a trillion Debarans, who control nearly a thousand star systems.

Of these thousand star systems, there are about one hundred and fifty star systems that are relatively large, and are inhabited by more than twenty trillion Debarang people.

In other star systems, the number of Debarang is around ten trillion.

In other words, the destruction of any one star system would not pose a serious threat to the Debarans, and even the destruction of one hundred and fifty major star systems would not be possible to completely wipe out the Debarans. The only way to defeat the Debarão is to capture all the star systems.

This is almost impossible for human civilization.

At the rate of human civilization's expansion, it would take at least a hundred years to assemble enough legions to conquer all the star systems controlled by the Debarangs. The premise is that in the past hundred years, the military strength of human civilization has not suffered much loss, that is, the current legion still exists.

Obviously, this is almost impossible.

Besides, if the war with the Debarangs lasted for a hundred years, even if human civilization had formed enough legions by then, it might not be able to win the war. The people of Debaran will not stop advancing, and will expand their military power. In addition, continued wars will destroy many star systems, so even if human civilization is strong enough to defeat the Debarans in a hundred years, the gains will not be great. For the urgent needs within the alliance, it is also impossible to wait until a hundred years from now to provide sufficient conditions for those allies who want to expand their living space. Without rapid expansion, the alliance will fall apart within a decade.

The question is, how quickly to war the Debarangians?

Not to mention others, even Zhang Xiaogang is a little helpless.

He had done his best to expand the size of the legions, and many of the warriors had not had time to train before they had been incorporated into the newly formed legions, or sent to replenish those that had lost a great deal of their warriors in battle, without the military strength of the human race being substantially enhanced.

This is not the annexation war that Zhang Xiaogang wants, but a war of attrition with little to no end.

For both warring parties, the continuation of such a war of attrition would mean total destruction, and neither would be the real victor in this war.

The problem is that if you give up now, it means immediate destruction.

Obviously, for any intelligent civilization, even if the Dao of Knowledge is destroyed in a few decades or even centuries, it will not accept the end of immediate destruction. From a more selfish point of view, in the case of the inevitable destruction of the Dao of Knowledge, most intelligent civilizations will choose to die with their enemies. It may be a very helpless choice, but no intelligent civilization will be noble enough to sacrifice itself to fulfill its enemies.

However, no intelligent civilization will accept the end of doomed destruction in war.

Zhang Xiaogang will not accept such an ending, what he wants is victory!
