Chapter 448: Prison Cage

In the process of armistice negotiations, the two sides tacitly agreed that they did not want to sign a written agreement.

First, everyone knows that it is not binding at all, and second, both sides are ready to turn their faces at any time the moment they reach an agreement......

Shortly after the armistice, more than 100 captives were released back to Proxima Centauri, and Gustav took the opportunity to hype up the ceremony of taking the captives as if they were a triumphant warrior.

At the same time, Gustav also declared that this was a great diplomatic victory, and that the invincible armada of the twin stars would tremble at the point of any power.

The morale of the army, which had been somewhat fluctuating because of the sudden armistice, did recover some morale a little under such propaganda, and it also saved some face for Gustav in the previous defeat and the capture of the soldiers.

As a result, the act of releasing the captives was regarded by some uninformed people as an act of showing weakness to the Gemini.

The captives who survived the catastrophe were naturally ecstatic when they returned to their troops, but when asked about the situation in the solar system, they were unaware.

"I don't know, since we were captured, the other party has not let us have any contact with information from the outside world at all, and there are only some automated robots around us who are guarding us."

"The place where we were being held should be not far from the wormhole, and the other party didn't mean to torture us, not even a normal interrogation."

"Abuse? No, on the contrary, our treatment is still very good, even if we fail to escape several times, the punishment of the other party is very light, much friendlier than the prison in China! ”

"Information on where to be held? Not...... Does a little too much of a monitor count? Sometimes I feel like there are countless pairs of eyes staring at me all the time, and I can't even sleep......"

Gemini was disappointed to find that they could not learn anything about the solar system from the captives, and that the only most valuable information was a hallucination caused by the mental stress of a soldier......

"In this way, there may really be an ulterior secret inside the solar system...... this is the conclusion that Ishar came to through these captives.

"Hmmm! Obviously, these captives were targeted and blocked, and the other party even avoided contact with personnel as much as possible, and only used some automated robots to detain them, in order to avoid intelligence leakage as much as possible.

Could it be the ...... in the solar system? Is there really a garrison of the Ante Empire? ”

"I don't rule out this possibility, and judging from the other party's attitude towards these captives, I'm afraid that as early as the capture of these people, the One Everything Association already has the intention of using them as bargaining chips." Isal guessed.

Preferential treatment of prisoners, information blockade, this is by no means a normal means of holding prisoners, unless the prisoners have long known that they will be released......

Could it be that when the other party was engaged in the wormhole attack and defense war, it had already calculated that there would be today?

Gustav's face was a little ugly, and he felt a sense of humiliation that he was led by the other party's nose, the other party took one step and looked at three steps, and he could only passively follow the other party's rhythm.

But then his mood improved again,

The other party's actions just proved that they did not have the strength to engage their own fleet head-on, so they needed to make a fuss about the prisoners.

If we are so strong, what more prisoners do we need?

Ignoring Gustav's inner activities, Isal thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any latest movement on Kara recently?" ”

"Hmmm! Nothing else is out of the ordinary, but our surveillance equipment has detected that the number of hunters on the ground of Kara is dwindling, and not only that, but the remaining signs of Kara activity seem to be fading. Gustav replied.

The transformation plan of the Immortals is definitely a huge project at the level of a world miracle, the resources that need to be mobilized, the manpower consumed is incalculable, and the huge hunter army is almost all requisitioned as sappers, which naturally attracts the attention of the Gemini monitoring system.

"Huh? Plummeting numbers? In this case, they actually chose to hibernat? Isar's brow furrowed slightly.

"Humph! Shouldn't they choose to hibernate? The truce agreement that was finally exchanged for prisoners and water of life, I think they are afraid of irritating us, so they don't dare to blow up any more stabs. Gustav snorted disdainfully.

"Nope! No, the two armies are facing each other, even if they are in a weak position, they should definitely take the initiative to show weakness, just like two wild beasts facing each other, as long as one side shows cowardice, the other side will definitely not hesitate to pounce on it and bite wildly.

Therefore, if they want to maintain the truce, they should instead show their sharper fangs to intimidate us, warning us that it is not a wise choice to do it.

Hibernate such a choice...... Abnormal! ”

Ishaar's words made Gustav stunned, and then thought that this seemed to be the case.

The art of war has clouds, soldiers, and tricks, so they can show that they cannot.

What is the Strategic Fool Bureau for?

The powerful country hides its killer weapon and "shows what it can't", while the weaker side keeps boasting about how the power of its own weapons can break through the sky, trying to deter the enemy with "showing its ability when it can't", telling the other party that it is not a soft persimmon?

In this way, the behavior on Kara is a bit strange.

"You mean...... Is there a conspiracy here? Gustav asked.

"I don't know, maybe the other side can't support such a huge armament anymore.

After all, there are not many people left in Kara, and the various industrial bases have been basically destroyed by us, and they should have been overdrawing the few remaining resources before this.

The number of hunters on the other side has been drastically reduced, perhaps because they have 'hibernated' these creatures to reduce their consumption.

But...... I always felt like things weren't that simple......" Ishal mused.

"Humph! Even if they have any conspiracy, our fleet occupies an absolute strategic position, as long as we hold the orbit of the planet of Kara and do not let a single aircraft pass, even if the other party jumps again, it can only be on the surface of the planet, and it will not threaten us at all. Gustav said confidently.

But then he thought for a moment and added, "But just in case, I'll send another part of the fleet over to strengthen the blockade around Kara!" Make sure nothing goes wrong! ”

As a qualified commander, he can despise his opponents strategically, and he will never underestimate his opponents tactically.

Hearing this, Isal nodded, after all, she occupied a favorable position, and she didn't believe that the other party could make any waves in such a situation.

Kara provides shelter for the other side, but at the same time it is a natural cage, and gravity is the heaviest shackle!

Blocked by dozens of warships, any flying object that tries to escape Kara will be blown to pieces in the process of climbing at turtle speed.

However, they would never have imagined what kind of killing weapon was hidden in the depths of Kara Star......
