Almost 30% of the ground garrison on Crotan Star are such slaves (please refer to House Slaves for interpretation), and perhaps, in the next three years, their parents, and even their siblings, will use the money they earn from labor, odd jobs, and even selling their bodies to redeem their lives. Perhaps, if they don't make any money, or if something happens to happen, the money to buy their lives is gone, and these soldiers will get on the bus to hell and sink into the abyss of blood and fire without the light of day, with no future, no hope.

Against this background, it was only natural that the First and Second Fleets in the North Sea, with a relatively large number of soldiers and slaves, would rebel after Marion's encouragement. As for those officers? God knows what benefits the old guy promised them, but the backstage boss of Garcia's rebels is the Charles Federation, a country that enshrines freedom and democracy as universal values. The temptation to join the Charles Federation and be a true citizen who no longer has to look up and no longer have to grovel to the knees is a temptation that not many middle and junior officers can resist.

Aldrich ordered the Eastern Garrison Regiment to surround the military port of Drosnier, and launched a gentle offensive against the non-commissioned officers in the port behind closed doors by means of loudspeakers, satellite broadcasts, and leaflets, promising that if they surrendered, they would be exempted from military service, and that they would be allowed to return home to their relatives and live in peace for the rest of their lives.

In the face of the military's tactics, Marion made a big move, once again crushing the carefully planned plan of Aldrich and his thinkers. After completely controlling the missile base on the Thor continent, he instructed his men to destroy all the military satellite arrays scattered in the planetary orbit with the electromagnetic pulse missiles in the base's stockpile. For a time, the military became blind.

At the same time, the original sporadic uprisings in the central part of the Odin continent have intensified, with a tendency to spread to the capital, and the rebel army in the east has advanced all the way because of the lack of the first army to block it, and almost the entire million square kilometers of the Sunaru River have been included in the rebel army's sphere of influence.

Aldrich was in a hurry, and at the suggestion of his staff, he hurriedly dispatched the Second Army Corps defending the capital to carry out a crusade against the sporadic rebel forces in the center of the mainland, and at the same time withdrew a part of the troops besieging the military port of Drosnir and sent it to the eastern front to save the stormy military situation in the Sunaru River area.

Because 90 percent of the military satellites were damaged by the previous missile strikes, the military had no choice but to reluctantly set up a communications and command network with the only few polar-orbiting satellites remaining over the continent of Frey as the core and some commercial-grade satellites as nodes.

I don't know if it was because the timing was not ripe, or because they didn't want to push Aldrich too hard, the rebels did not launch a second round of missile strikes. Aldrich's government was able to survive and continue to function.

The 1st and 2nd fleets in the North Sea set out from the Karst military port and under the cover of the fortifications of the military port of Drosnir, they carried out a surprise attack on the 1st Army on the periphery with medium and long-range weapons.

On the one hand, Marion completely controlled the missile base on the Thor continent, and on the other hand, the First and Second Fleets in the North Sea took the Karst Military Port and the Drosnir Military Port as the fulcrum, and brought the entire North Sea and hundreds of kilometers of land around the Drosnir Military Port under the control of the rebels.

Faced with such a situation, Aldrich and his government group were completely caught in a dilemma.

Reconciliation with Garcia's rebels? It is simply impossible, the light of the holy sword of "Celtic" will not allow these filthy bedbugs to desecrate. Launching an all-out offensive? After the last battle of the karst military port, the Second Fleet in the South China Sea was almost completely wiped out, and the First and Third Fleets also suffered losses of different lengths. However, if the First and Second Fleets of the North Sea hide near the military port and rely on fortifications to maneuver with their own fleet, the loser will definitely be the South China Sea Fleet.

It is not impossible to break through the military port, and it is absolutely impossible for the Drosnir military port to defend against such a three-dimensional offensive of the ground, sea and air in the South China Sea, the first and second armies on land, and in the air and in the air. But will Marion, the cunning old fox, watch the rebels' strategic location on the continent of Odin be wiped out? Definitely not, the medium- and long-range missiles in the silos at the base are not vegetarian. Besides, if the Second Army is withdrawn, who will defend the Beijing Division? Aldrich is not stupid, he doesn't want to be stabbed in the chrysanthemum, the rebel guerrilla forces or something, the most annoying!

Of course, there is another option, play with nuclear bombs. In this day and age, nuclear weapons are not like cabbage on the side of the road, but almost every planet will have one or two nuclear weapons bases to deal with foreign invasions.

The premier nuclear weapons base on Crotan is naturally none other than the missile base on the Thor continent, but unfortunately it has been occupied by the rebel army led by Marion. In fact, the space base on the continent of Frey is also equipped with nuclear bomb silos, and there is also a small nuclear bomb base hidden on an island called "Saruye".

It's a pity that nuclear weapons are like pimples, and if they grow on other people's faces, they can still be fun, but they are not a good thing when they grow on their own faces. Attacking the missile base on the continent of Thor with a nuclear bomb? Don't be funny, there are tens of meters of nuclear-proof underground bunkers, and unless you blow up the entire planet, don't try to force that old Marion guy out.

Settle for the next best thing and attack the military port of Drosnier? A neutron bomb goes down, the enemy is completely destroyed, and the equipment is intact. Sounds like a great idea. But who is Marion's backstage boss? Charles Federation, this kind of bad incident of throwing nuclear bombs on the heads of civilians at home and in their own country, once it causes trouble in the international community and under the pressure of public opinion, even Colclave I will have a headache, and then he will inevitably find a scapegoat to go out to calm the anger of the public, and that person's official position cannot be too big, nor too small, and it is better to be a nobleman who does not feel pain.

It can't be Kane Rudolph, so the heavy burden of losing the car is bound to fall on his Aldridge. Therefore, nuclear weapons cannot be moved lightly. If the planet is lost, it can be snatched back, but it is a big deal to be demoted and held accountable, so at least you don't have to go to drink tea with Lord Satan.

Correspondingly, Marion can't play with nuclear bombs, because he is the leader of the rebels, who takes freedom and democracy, benevolence and harmony as his own responsibility, and occupies the moral high ground.

Aldrich has always been a lord who refuses to admit defeat, and what happens on his own turf must be solved by his own strength. Of course, most of the officials were not optimistic about him, because Marion was who he was, and he had eaten more salt than he had traveled. However, with the strength of the army, the military can be said to be far superior to the rebel army, and there may not be no chance to eliminate Garcia's resistance.

As a result, the battle became so anxious, the fleets of both sides faced each other in the ocean near the North Sea, and the three divisions of the 1st Army Corps formed a military defense line in the Mide corridor south of the military port of Drosnir.
