In fact, while making a threat, Alente also made a demand. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

That is, the Extreme Realm Clan immediately stopped its combat operations against the Kunyang Clan, the Berserk Beast Clan, and the Bingyu Clan, withdrew its troops from the occupied star system, and unconditionally released all the captives of the Kunyang Clan, the Berserk Beast Clan, and the Bingyu Clan. After that, he would send the Arctic prisoners of war to a star system in the neighboring Southern Region, and inform the Arctic to arrange for a spaceship to pick them up. It seems that Alente is defending the vested interests of the Berserkers and fighting for the most favorable terms for a truce. However, there is no explicit time limit in his request, so there is enough reason to think that the demand he made is really just a front and the real purpose is to buy more time.

This hypothesis has been confirmed by the Human Federation.

In Alente's request to the Human Federation, it was only for the Human Federation to stop fighting back, and all legions to remain on the existing front, and unconditionally release the captives of the Kunyang Clan, the Beast Clan, and the Bingyu Clan, but did not mention when and how to release these prisoners of war.

Obviously, Allient is deliberately delaying, that is, preparing for a backup plan.

According to King Mo Hui, the backup plan proposed by King Ming Yan was not the main plan, so he did not invest too many resources in the preliminary preparations. This can be seen from the combat operations of the elite legions of the Kunyang clan, that is, there are still some elite legions of the Kunyang clan participating in the offensive operations and acting as the vanguard of the attack. Because of the lack of preparation, when the attack is in trouble, knowing that it is impossible to destroy the Human Federation through the attack, and the backup plan must be activated, it will also take enough time to complete the preliminary preparations, such as providing all the Kunyang warriors on the mission with a planetary bomb that is powerful enough to destroy a star system. Besides, the backup plan involves hundreds of millions of star systems, and even if the Kunyang Clan has enough elite warriors, it can't send all of these warriors out at the same time, let alone let them reach the target star system at the same time, there must be a sequence. In other words, it takes a lot of time just to complete the upfront deployment. Even if all the preparations are carried out at the same time, it will certainly not be fully in place in a few months.

It can be seen that Alente threatened the Extreme Realm and the Human Federation with prisoners of war at this time in order to gain time.

It is precisely because of this recognition that Yu Minghui clearly mentioned that the Human Federation will not compromise with the enemy because of prisoners of war, and will not give the enemy more time.

Yu Minghui's promise to give Queen Kangsheng three months is actually based on it.

The point is that the Polar Realm has already entered the war as allies of the Human Federation, and although not all of the Polar Clan ships that were previously operating on the front line have returned to the Southern Region, there are not many left, and most of them have been damaged and cannot be used anymore, at least it will take some time to repair. Among the Kunyang Clan, the Berserk Beast Clan, and the Bingyu Clan, the only one who has the ability to repair these ships in the short term is the Bingyu Clan. The problem now is that the Warriors have surrendered to the Extreme Realm and withdrawn from the war, and the most that Alente can use is the Troop legions and fleets that remain on the front line. Because there is no support and guarantee from the rear, it is simply impossible to repair these damaged ships in the short term by relying only on the officers and men of the fleet. It was clear that Alente lacked a ship to send the elite warriors of the Kunyang Clan to their destination star system. Three months is not a lot of time, and even if some spaceships can be repaired, they will not be able to send hundreds of millions of elite warriors of the Kunyang clan to the target star system. Just if it drags on any longer, maybe Alente will be able to get the means of delivery through other channels.

Don't forget, beyond the three second-rate top civilizations, there are thousands of civilizations involved in the war against the Human Federation.

Although after the turn of the Arctic Clan, most civilizations have made a rational choice, at least to remain silent and no longer actively participate in combat operations. Thanks to the active efforts of the Extreme Realm, many civilizations have changed their stance or are ready to join the camp of the Extreme Realm and the Human Federation. However, the influence of the Kunyang Clan, the Beast Clan, and the Soldier Domain Clan has not completely disappeared, and they still control a lot of civilizations. Most of these civilizations are distributed in the Eastern Region and the Western Region, and they are not closely related to the Polar Race, and are almost unaffected by the Extreme Race. In other words, if these civilizations are still actively engaged in this war, it will only take three months at most to provide Alente with enough ships.

In fact, this is the key to the three-month time limit.

Of course, in response to this, the Extreme Realm has already launched an operation, that is, to send personnel to these civilizations to make them aware of the current situation.

It's just that no one dares to guarantee that all civilizations will be able to withdraw from the war.

In fact, perhaps not many civilizations will withdraw from the war because of the lobbying of the Arctic Clans.

Very simply, in terms of the battlefield situation, the Kunyang Clan, the Beast Clan, and the Warring Domain Clan still have the advantage, and the counterattack of the Human Federation has not achieved a decisive victory, and it has not even recovered all the star systems in the Northern Fourth Region, let alone the entire Northern Region. The Extreme Realm only announced its participation in the war, but did not take substantive action, and the mobilized fleets and legions were all in the Southern Regions, and they were on the defensive. As for Yang Yi, because it is impossible to personally show his strength to every civilization, the impact on these civilizations is minimal. For these civilizations that have not yet recognized the situation, it is wise to remain neutral, and it is not a mistake to continue to support the three second-rate top civilizations such as the Kunyang Clan. Besides, all Alente needed was a spaceship to send the elite warriors of the Kunyang Clan to the destination star system, and a small fast spaceship was enough, so it was indeed a very cost-effective deal for these civilizations to provide a small spaceship that was not too valuable in exchange for an opportunity. Keep in mind that providing a ship is not the same as sending troops directly into the war, so many civilizations don't know how serious the consequences of doing so are. Even those civilizations that have been shaken will believe that this does not pose a direct threat to the Federation of Humanity. In other words, even if the Human Federation is the final victor, it will not punish other civilizations for providing small fast ships.

Fortunately, hundreds of millions of spaceships are clearly not available to any civilization.

With this in mind, the Extreme Realm focused on a few powerful advanced civilizations with large transport fleets.

Of course, the relationship between these civilizations and the Extreme Realm Race is not bad.

Although in this war, the Polar Realm Clan undertook the main logistics support tasks, provided the most transport spaceships, and took on more than eighty percent of the transportation tasks, but in addition to the Extreme Realm Clan, there were also many civilizations that dispatched transport fleets to deliver legions and materials to the front line for the three second-rate top civilizations such as the Kunyang Clan. In order to coordinate the transportation work and bring out the efficiency of the fleet, all the logistics are in the hands of the Extreme Realm Clan. To put it simply, the fleets of other civilizations are all deployed by the Extreme Realm, and the Extreme Realm Clan arranges specific tasks. It was in this way that the Extreme Realm established a stable relationship with these civilizations, and maintained it for a long time.

In fact, the position of these civilizations has one thing in common with the Extreme Realm Race, that is, they are unwilling to directly send troops to war.

Although some of them just don't want their soldiers to act as cannon fodder, some of them want to preserve their strength so that they can get more war dividends by virtue of their strength after the war, and even some of them are only forced to participate in this war because they were coerced by the four second-rate top civilizations, but the war has lasted for hundreds of years, and the Human Federation has not only not been wiped out, but even its morale has not declined, which is enough to make many civilizations think that it is not easy to defeat the Human Federation, and it is uncertain what the final result of this war will be. As a result of this, more and more civilizations have found it obviously a very wise thing to do to maintain limited neutrality from the beginning.

For those weak civilizations, even limited neutrality is impossible. Especially after experiencing the heavy losses in the early stages of the war, no weak civilization can be left alone, and must choose between the four second-rate top civilizations and the Human Federation. It's just that for those civilizations with a certain strength, as long as they can get the approval of a second-rate top civilization, it is not difficult to maintain limited neutrality. It is for this reason that the Polar Realm has established good relations with civilizations that wish to maintain limited neutrality. Of course, through these civilizations, the Extreme Realm Clan controlled almost all of the transport fleets, making the Kunyang Clan, the Beast Clan, and the Bingyu Clan jealous. Obviously, it was this informal alliance that ensured the independence of the Arctic during the war. For those civilizations that have taken refuge in the Extreme Realm, they will not only gain limited neutrality, but also more stable security.

Of course, that's not all.

All the Arctic can do is stabilize these well-connected civilizations, keep them neutral, and not provide any substantial support to Arrent.

The problem is, they're just a minority.

Beyond them, there are hundreds of thousands of civilizations. Although none of these civilizations are powerful, and some of them only send troops to fight when they are threatened, even the weakest civilization has some small fast ships, and when they are gathered, it is not a few.

It can be said that it is definitely not difficult to obtain tens of millions, if not more, of small fast ships from these civilizations.

Soon, this concern was demonstrated.

While the Polar Realm and the Human Federation were threatened, thousands of civilizations had received orders from Alente, and all small fast ships had been dispatched as required. Although the number is not very large, the most is less than a hundred, the least is only a few, the total will not exceed 100,000, but with this start, there will inevitably be more weak civilizations to send small fast ships according to Alente's orders.

In response to this problem, Queen Kangsheng took immediate action, and it was a two-pronged approach.

According to her arrangement, thousands of the queen's envoys left the home planet of the Polar Realm and traveled to various civilizations in the Eastern and Southern regions, trying to win them over, or at least so that they would no longer carry out the orders issued by the Arrient. At the same time, Queen Kangsheng sent an elite force with the Queen's Guard as the core to intercept the small fast ships heading to the Northern Region on various routes to the Northern Region.

It's just that Queen Kangsheng doesn't know how effective it is.
