How so?

How can this be?

Syllable!

The slap slammed on the table, and the huge conference table made of solid wood turned into powder on the spot, and the faces of the seven cabinets turned pale.

In order to eliminate the attackers, this operation mobilized the Empire, about a quarter of the troops, and the Nadi star system is one of the hundred attack points, accounting for about one percent of the total strength of this operation, and for the entire Hidden Yuan Empire, it is one of four hundred military forces.

Is one in four hundred rare?

Compared to the entire Hidden Yuan Empire, of course, it will not hurt the muscles and bones, and it will not cause the empire to be greatly damaged.

But!

Although it is not much from the ratio of 1 in 400, you must know that it took billions of years for the Hidden Yuan Empire to develop to its current scale.

What a staggering loss of billions of years of power that has been accumulated to the present day in less than two hours by one in four hundredth?

The three trillion weakest armies with the strength of the Heavenly Martial Six Heavens, including more than 2 billion Nine Heavens masters, plus more than 10 billion six-star and seven-star warships, this is enough to fight against the power of ordinary ninth-level high-level empires, and the resources invested by such a force are even more terrifying astronomical amounts.

Is it one in four hundred?

In this way, the empire has lost 1 in 400 percent of the armament power it has only possessed after billions of years of development, and how many years will it take the empire to make up for this loss?

Just to say that these trillion soldiers, the leyline source spirit consumed by the empire on them will have to be compensated for by at least ** thousand years of income!

A thousand years is a drop in the bucket compared to billions of years?

Wrong!

Even if he was a peak powerhouse in the late stage of the Nine Heavens, he only had a lifespan of more than two million years, and it was certainly impossible for a martial artist billions of years ago to live until now.

People die.

Therefore, the income of this ** thousand years cannot be compared with the time of the existence of the entire empire, but with the lifespan of the warrior.

In addition to the loss of trillions of soldiers, there are also tens of billions of warships of different types.

The resources consumed to make warships are still secondary, and the key is that these warships are filled with gray crystals, and the gray crystals are destroyed in the explosion, so isn't this a huge loss?

"Who the hell is it? Who the hell is it! A cabinet member yelled heartbreakingly.

"Who the hell did we mess with?"

The other cabinet was not so crazy in comparison, his face was extremely cold, and his brows were furrowed: "According to the survivors, the other party is made up of different races, not from the other eight empires, but like a pirate group or a hunter organization. There are at least 30 billion people on the other side, and only the three major hunter organizations can do it on such a scale, but ...... The technology contained in the other party's warships is more advanced than that of the nine empires, and it is impossible for the three major hunter organizations to possess such powerful technology - in this universe, no country or organization can be linked to this team. ”

It is impossible for other advanced civilizations to possess beyond the technological level of the Nine Great Empires, and if you want to get the most powerful technology, the Axis of the Universe is the only shortcut, and only the Nine Great Empires can enter and exit the Axis of the Universe.

But even so, the Nine Great Empires have not developed stronger technology for this reason, let alone other countries.

"First of all, the other side apparently intercepted the signals from the various attack points and re-issued them after tampering; Secondly, after receiving the attack alert, we immediately turned on the wormhole jump containment system of these star systems, and even seven-star warships could not perform wormhole jumping. So one thing is for sure, that is, the technology that the other side has is more powerful than ours, and it is a comprehensive technology. ”

The firepower of the battleship is more powerful, ignoring the wormhole jump containment system of the Hidden Yuan Empire, it can still complete the wormhole jump in the open state, and has the ability to intercept the communication signals of the Hidden Yuan Empire, this mysterious fleet is stronger than the Hidden Yuan Empire in all aspects.

This shows that the other party is not inadvertently simply getting a stronger technology, but a complete set of scientific and technological information.

What does this mean?

Let's take an analogy.

In the axis of the universe, the nine empires have developed corresponding technologies through physical objects by obtaining technological products from another, more technologically powerful universe.

But the technology included in a thing is always only one-sided: if you get a power engine, you can only develop the technology of the power engine, and such an extremely comprehensive technology does not exist even in the axis of the universe, unless it is an existing material.

However...... It doesn't even seem to exist in the axis of the universe, does it?

"I want to know more now why these people are attacking us - why are they attacking us when there are so many countries in the universe?"

"Didn't anyone die on the other side, no battleships were destroyed, no clues were left?"

"Nope."

A cabinet member smiled wryly and said, "According to the survivors, the other side also suffered casualties in the confrontation, but the casualties were much smaller than ours. However, when our massive warships arrived without finding the corpses and wreckage of the battleship, it is certain that they cleaned the scene very carefully - it was a premeditated attack, and the enemy had planned the whole thing at the beginning of the operation, and it was impossible to leave us with any clues. ”

The same cabinet also has a high and low status, and the cabinet that smashed the table before is undoubtedly the most authoritative one except for the emperor who went to the axis of the universe.

He took a deep breath, tried to calm his emotions, and shouted in a deep voice: "Judging from the other party's entire plan, they are not trying to attack those star field ruling centers, financial districts, and military bases, but to attract our troops to come over through this kind of attack. ”

"That's right! The other party's actions have an obvious purpose, that is, to kill and injure the military force of my Hidden Yuan Empire. Another cabinet member nodded.

"Before we find out the origin of the other party, we have one of the biggest disadvantages, that is, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light."

The cabinet swept his gaze over everyone and said, "The empire's territory is huge, and the other party's technology is strong, so it is impossible to deploy it to the entire empire. So I suggest that the next step is to shrink the number of Imperial forces, concentrate the Imperial forces in a few places, and announce the location of several of them. ”

As things stand, this is undoubtedly the best way to go.

Deliberately announcing the troop assembly points, if the other side dares to come, it will be self-defeating, and at the same time only a few places are announced to the outside world, but more assembly points are hidden, and they can be responded to at any time when necessary.

In addition, originally distributed throughout the empire, from an ordinary habitable star system to those well-known financial districts, high-level administrative districts, tourist areas, and military industrial locations, these places used to be garrisoned by varying numbers of troops, but later all the armies in these places were transferred to various assembly points, and only a very small number of low-level soldiers were retained, who were responsible for the most basic daily operations.

Isn't the other party's purpose to kill and injure the living forces of the Hidden Yuan Empire?

Then let the other party have nowhere to put his teeth, if he wants to continue to deal with the military forces of the Hidden Yuan Empire, he can only go to those points where the troops are gathered and announced to the outside world - if the other party really goes, he will be completely killed.

"What if the enemy changes tactics?"

A cabinet member frowned and muttered, "In this way, there are only a very small number of low-level soldiers left in all parts of the empire, not to mention whether they can maintain daily law and order." If...... What do we do if they turn around and simply attack places like the financial district? ”

Hearing him say this, several cabinets immediately fell silent.

In the end, the highest-ranking cabinet smiled wryly: "As far as the current situation is concerned, this is the only way." In order to avoid the possibility of what you are talking about, it is imperative that we find out where these people come from - as long as we know what kind of forces they come from, we will have no advantage in the dark and we will have the opportunity to find a better solution. ”

The opponent is very powerful and extremely technologically advanced, and the Hidden Yuan Empire knows nothing about them, so it can't think of a good way at the moment.

Shadow.

This word used to be the name of the organization that guarded Yan Huang, but now it has become the code name of another powerful organization in a distant civilization.

Located in a certain part of the Heavenly Power Empire, the coordinates are absolutely secret from the outside world, and only a very few know about the star system, which is where the base of the 'Shadow' is located.

Half a day ago, the tall and thin man who had been appointed as the commander of the Nadi Star System ordered all the staff to evacuate was standing respectfully in front of Qin Yan at this moment.

At one time, he was just a very ordinary mid-level officer.

What now?

It was Qin Yan who gave him great strength, gave him the opportunity to serve the empire, and gave him a position that he couldn't imagine before.

From the epaulettes on his epaulettes, the epaulettes of the six-star marshal, you can see the change in status.

Of course, although he now holds a lot of power, in front of Qin Yan, he always maintains respect: not only because Qin Yan has given him too much and makes him grateful, but also because this young man has an aura of countless miracles on his body.

Perhaps the name 'Shennong' is known by the entire empire, and even more countries, simply because he is the husband of the emperor.

But the real upper echelons of the empire know how powerful this man is!

The outside world knows him, but more in his identity, with the name of 'Husband of the Dark Emperor', but what is the actual situation?

Adore the rising sun?

Little white face?

Borrowing a woman to take the position?

Before Shadow was formed, Trogo, who was still an ordinary mid-level officer, thought so, but when he became a member of Shadow and became his appointed commander, he had the opportunity to understand what this man had done and what kind of miracles he had created.

When he was a new recruit of the reserve instrument, this man asked his reserve team to complete a series of assessments with a score far exceeding the highest score in history.

Even, the eight major punishment needles and ten art of war that he handed over to the empire as a preparer have now been fully promoted in the army.

With the help of these things, the military combat power of the empire will be increased by at least one percent!

What is the concept of Issei?

The Hidden Yuan Empire only lost one of the four hundredth of its military strength, and it would take nearly 10,000 years of progress to make up for it, and the increase in combat power of one percent can be imagined.

Because of this, he became the first person in the history of the empire to be promoted to a four-star lieutenant general just after completing the reserve instrument recruit assessment!

Of course, all this is negligible compared to what he did later.
