Chapter 75: Choking the Throat

Three cargo ships loaded with gold and other precious metals, escorted by two interstellar frigates and two armed spaceships, sailed into the interstellar branch line that reached the dawn of the sky. Because there are armed ships sent by the Thunderstorm Group at the beginning and end of the interstellar branch to be on guard, the fleet, which feels that it is very safe, does not send armed ships for reconnaissance. If the escort fleet sends out a reconnaissance gunship, the fleet will find that the road they have explored and can pass through is blocked by a large number of meteorite fragments! Although sending out reconnaissance ships will not avoid the fate of the fleet being blocked at both ends, it can at least allow them to react as soon as they fall into the trap. It's a pity that the escort fleet didn't do that.

When the escort fleet found that the road ahead was blocked by a large number of meteorite fragments, and then had to withdraw from the curvature navigation state, the armed forces under Lan Rui's jurisdiction had calmly appeared in the rear of the escort fleet, completely blocking the escort fleet in a dead end. Unless the escort fleet wants to use a relatively extremely slow normal way of sailing, under the enemy's firepower, to cross the distribution area of the meteorite belt at any cost, the escort fleet can only turn its head and start a battle with the enemy who is blocking the retreat in the rear!

However, Lan Rui's fleet had no intention of actively attacking, but only wanted to trap this fleet in this dead end. Unless the other party wants to get out of this dead end, Lan Rui's fleet is not ready to take the initiative to attack.

Just like the actions of the Earth Far Star before it was invaded by interstellar pirates, the forces of the Earth Far Star who received the alarm from the escort fleet immediately became nervous! Only this time, no one dared to go out to the rescue, and everyone was trying to prevent the interstellar pirates who might repeat their old tricks and invade the Far Star for the second time! Even the Thunderstorm Group, whose escort fleet was blocked, could only break its teeth and swallow blood in such an isolated and helpless situation, swallowing the loss this time alive, and sitting back and watching its escort fleet and cargo spacecraft being blocked in the interstellar feeder.

"Surrender or don't kill, stubborn resistance to the end is only a dead end!" Blocking the enemy in a dead end, Lan Rui's fleet immediately launched a psychological offensive against the enemy fleet that chose to hold on.

"Damn interstellar pirates, those who believe in your word are now ghosts! If you want to eat you, you have to attack! The commander of the escort fleet saw that the morale of his men was unusually low, and hurriedly used this method to boost the morale of his men. In the face of the threat of death, the crews of the escort fleet cheered up their fighting spirit and decided to hold on to help. As for the counterattack? Not to mention that there are three large-sized cargo ships in the escort fleet with weak maneuverability and poor defense, even if there is no drag of the cargo spacecraft, it will be extremely difficult to break through the defense! This feels like the Wei troops during the Three Kingdoms period are about to attack the narrow and rugged terrain of the Sword Pavilion! No matter how strong your own forces are, they can't use them! If the other party comes to another peerless general like Zhao Zilong, it will really be a one-man affair!

Lan Rui's fleet will have to be defended within a few days due to the threat from the Earth's far stars. After the fleet under Lan Rui's name returned to defense, Wu Tian's fleet had to go up. It's just that, until now, Wu Tian still doesn't have even a trustworthy warship under his name. It is impossible for a temporarily hired interstellar frigate to carry out such a confidential mission, and although Wu Tian earned the first pot of gold in the previous interstellar pirate invasion war, he has spent a lot of money in all aspects recently.

Fortunately, sometimes channels can also be used as money. Consciousness once again descended on the Dawn Star, and Wu Tian immediately got in touch with the clerk of the Holy Sword Church who had been waiting for a long time.

Because the matter was too big, and for the sake of absolute secrecy, the high-level officials of the Holy Sword Church did not go out, but sent Kayla, who had been in contact with Wu Tian before, to meet with Wu Tian. After all, if the upper echelons of the Holy Sword Church disappeared out of thin air, it was very likely that the relevant forces would notice it and launch an investigation. But if it's just Kayla a clerk, even if Kayla arrives late and leaves early all year round, there will be no people from other forces who have the time to make a small report.

"Mr. Kayla, I think Dilanxing is a good place to start." In the secret conference room where they met, Wu Tian cut directly to the topic after being polite.

"Dilanxing!" Kayla's eyes flickered with a little coldness, and she stared at the robot in front of her in disbelief.

As a key node in several interstellar branches, there is no doubt that the Earth Lan Star has fallen into the control of the Condor Empire. When the Condor Empire did not rebel, the status of the Earth Lanxing was not prominent. But once the Condor Empire rebels, the Earth Lanxing will become a spike stuck in the throats of all forces! As long as the Earth Lanxing is defended, the troops and supplies in the rear of the Condor Empire will continue to be transported to the front, and transported to those military bases that are not connected to the mainland like islands in the sea. And as long as the Condor Empire's troops and materials can be continuously delivered to the front line, the Condor Empire, which is choking the entrances and exits of various interstellar branch lines, may be able to block the crazy counterattack of the Galactic Alliance coalition forces with its own strength!

Of course, in order to avoid a two-front combat mode of flanking and back, the Condor Empire must form a close alliance with the neighboring border allies. And for such a thing, I believe that the First Alliance, which lost in the previous round, will definitely give some assistance.

However, once the Earth Lan Star fell into the hands of Wu Tian's side, there was a problem with the supply and military transportation of the Condor Empire's frontline, and the coalition forces of the Second Alliance would be able to open up the blocked interstellar branch line even if they used attrition tactics! Even if these interstellar feeders are blocked, the coalition forces will have the ability to clear a passage in a short period of time!

Kayla, who had been working hard to study the map and the power situation of all parties since the last negotiation, realized at the first time that Wu Tian's side seemed to have a huge appetite like a whale swallowing! In the face of such a huge appetite, even Kayla, who has been greatly empowered, can't help but tremble a little.

"Once we take the Earth Lan Star, whether it is the Condor Empire or the coalition forces of the Second Alliance, we will have to look at our faces!" Wu Tian said excitedly.

"However, once we take the Earth Lan Star, we will withstand a frantic attack from the Condor Empire!" Kayla speaks up to this crucial issue.

"Only by showing strong enough strength can we justifiably reap the rich dividends of the war, instead of being coveted by all sides." Wu Tian said firmly.

"However, we don't have the strength to confront the Condor Empire head-on!" At this time, it is not the time to care about face, you must seek truth from facts.

"If nothing else, that's exactly what happened." Wu Tian said.

"Accident?" Kayla keenly grasped the key point in the topic and asked eagerly.

"I'm sorry, I'm just a messenger, and I don't know what will happen to the earth for the time being." At the critical moment, Wu Tian was stuck again. The reason for the jamming this time is different from the last time, and the reason for the jamming this time is because this imminent "accident" must be held by Wu Tian and pushed by Wu Tian. Compared with the dignified battlefield fighting, although things like conspiracy and calculation can achieve the miraculous effect of three or two thousand pounds, they are also the most fragile. Once you encounter an unexpected change, you may fall short.
