Chapter 579: Weighing is great

The arrival of the Star Soul Empress means that the expedition is about to begin.

Around the outpost, thousands of Upper Weaver warships were already ready. Although the large force has not yet moved, there are already some small warships that have penetrated deep into the Greenwich meteorite belt to clear the way for the fleet. The flagship of the Weaver Clan, the "Divine Mother", was located in the center of the fleet, not very far from the outpost. Instead of letting the Weaver Legion enter the "Forward" outpost, the Star Soul Empress stayed outside the outpost and kept her distance from the human legions stationed at the outpost. It's not that they're guarding against the human legions, but that the two sides haven't agreed on the issue of coordinated operations. Although the military department sent Yang Yi to lead the army to fight with the reinforcements of the Weaver Clan, on other issues, such as sending the main army into the Northern Alpha system, the attitude of the military department was very ambiguous.

When Yang Yi and Lin Feng arrived, the Star Soul Empress was discussing combat operations with several generals of the Star Weaver Clan. Although Otis was also present, it could be seen that the captain of the female samurai guard did not have much to say. As for those generals, Yang Yi didn't know any of them.

After taking the others away, the Star Soul Empress greeted Yang Yi and Lin Feng.

"Our main army is about to arrive, and we will be able to set off in five days at the earliest, ten days at the latest." The Star Soul Empress sat down first, and waited for Yang Yi and Lin Feng to sit down before she said, "I have already greeted the commander of the outpost garrison, and I am about to send someone to invite you." ”

"I'm ready to go." Yang Yi replied very simply.

The Star Soul Empress nodded slightly, waiting for Yang Yi to continue. Although the military department sent Yang Yi to lead the army to assist and support the Star Weaver reinforcements to launch a strategic counterattack, they did not formulate a detailed battle plan, and Yang Yi never communicated with the Star Soul Empress. This is the first time the two have seen each other since leaving their home system.

"If it's no problem, I'll lead twenty legions to set off first and act as the vanguard of the counterattack."

"Twenty legions?" The Star Soul Empress was visibly stunned for a moment, as if she had misheard. I also asked a special question.

Yang Yi nodded and said, "Although there are two hundred legions under my command, and all of them have come to the outpost, only twenty of them have enough combat power. Besides, the main force of this counterattack is the Weaver reinforcements, and we are only providing support and assistance. In the current situation of the Human Legion. It doesn't make much sense even if I take two hundred legions. If some people think that I am in ruin, it may cause unexpected trouble. Of course, twenty legions were enough for this combat operation, that is, the task of establishing a bridgehead in the Northern Alpha system. Fewer troops also have the advantage of being less, such as not being so eye-catching. ”

"Do you think twenty legions will be able to accomplish the task?"

Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty's question." In fact, my judgment has been proven. ”

The Star Soul Empress was slightly stunned, still looking at Yang Yi incomprehensibly.

"Obviously, Your Majesty does not believe that twenty human legions will be able to establish a bridgehead in the North Alpha system, or even pass through the Greenwich meteorite belt safely. In other words, His Majesty didn't take the twenty human legions in his eyes at all. So, will anyone else take the twenty human legions in their eyes? Without waiting for the Star Soul Empress to speak, Yang Yi said again, "There is no doubt about it. Whether it's the guys who are staring at us from the rear, or the enemies on the other side of the Greenwich meteorite belt. All of them, like His Majesty, would never regard the twenty human legions as a threat, so they would naturally take it lightly. It is undeniable that the main legion of the Weaver Clan will definitely be able to defeat the Silicon Phantom army and gain a foothold in the Northern Alpha system. It is also undeniable that if the main army of the Weaver Clan is thrown into battle too early. This will inevitably lead to a lack of offensive strength in the ensuing battle. If what Your Majesty needs is a great victory that can change the current landscape of the Galactic Alliance, trust me, trust the Human Legion. Of course, we also need Her Majesty's trust and support. ”

"Tell me, what support do you need?" Only then did the Star Soul Empress figure out Yang Yi's purpose.

Yang Yi smiled embarrassedly. "Although I am confident that I will complete the task, the problem is very real and we cannot avoid it," he said. Twenty legions are indeed a little less, and even if we can successfully pass through the Greenwich Meteorite Belt with the information gathered over the past hundreds of years, we may not be able to gain a foothold in the North Alpha System. Besides, the Silicon Alliance must have adjusted the defensive deployment on the Greenwich Line, and the information we had before may not be valuable, and no one knows what awaits us on the other side of the Greenwich Meteorite Belt. If we're lucky, we'll be able to avoid the enemy's fortified area and find a remote star system. It's just that we can't base our victories on luck. To put it simply, we have to be mentally prepared to fight a tough battle with the enemy. ”

The Star Soul Empress shook her head with a wry smile and said, "It's not just mental preparation, there's more. I will follow the main legion of the Weavers, and if you don't object, I'll have Otis take the female warrior guard with you. Regardless, you've fought side by side on Mars and know each other well. ”

Yang Yi nodded slightly, not in a hurry.

"Of course, ten Shadow Ships are also assigned to you. You are the Chief Staff Officer and Royal Advisor of the Weavers, so you have full command. ”

"Your Majesty thinks that we have defeated the Silicon Charm army on Mars, and we can also win in the Northern Alpha Galaxy?"

"What, you don't have confidence in victory?" The Star Soul Empress didn't understand what Yang Yi meant.

"Of course not, I'm going to say that Mars isn't in the North Alpha system."

As soon as Yang Yi said this, the Star Soul Empress understood, and her expression changed slightly.

"Female samurai are indeed very powerful, but their manpower is extremely limited. On Mars, we were able to win, the key factor was not how powerful our combat power was, but that the enemy was not fighting with us at all, at least the existence of the top war king level did not go all out. Obviously, when the flames of war burn to the Northern Alpha Galaxy, I'm afraid that not only the top war kings, but even the war emperors will fight with us. Yang Yi let out a long breath before he said, "Your Majesty thinks that relying on a few hundred female warriors, the Human Legion will be able to gain a firm foothold in the Northern Alpha System?" It's not that I look down on female warriors like Otis, but in the next battle, personal abilities are insignificant. ”

"What do you mean......"

"If I bring not 200,000 ordinary soldiers from 20 legions, but 200,000 soldiers, what do you think our chances of victory are?"

The Star Soul Empress was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Yang Yi in disbelief.

"Your Majesty, don't get me wrong, I'm not asking Your Majesty to arm 200,000 human soldiers, I just hope that Your Majesty can provide some necessary help."

"What helps?"

"Technology for the manufacture of small primordial energy converters."

The Star Soul Empress was silent for a while before she said, "This is a trivial matter, the problem is that even if you have the technology, you don't have the raw materials you need to make a small Origin Energy Converter, especially the Primordial Crystal. ”

"This is indeed a problem, but it does not need to be bothered by His Majesty."

"Really?"

Yang Yi smiled reluctantly and said, "Before going to the Alliance Star, we fought the enemy in the Green Star. Although we were not able to keep the Green Star or save the Dumen, we did our best to win the trust of the Dumen and obtain the treasure of the Dumen. ”

"You mean ......"

"As promised, I will regenerate the Dumen at some point in the future and provide a home for the newborn Dumen to thrive. In order for me to fulfill my promise and repay me, the unique people handed over all the original crystals mined to me. ”

"So you have enough primordial crystals?" The Star Soul Empress sighed secretly.

Yang Yi nodded slightly and said, "It's not enough, but it's enough to make a small Origin Energy Converter that can be used to arm human soldiers." As for other raw materials, with the support and assistance of the Yu family, the problem should not be very big. That said, all I'm missing right now is the technology. ”

"Looks like you've planned it a long time ago."

"I can't hide it, I can only trust Your Majesty."

"Convinced?"

Yang Yi nodded and said, "If you only bring twenty ordinary legions, let alone me, even if Xiao Wentian is reborn, there will be no good results." Only with the support of Her Majesty the Empress can change the current situation and make our actions no longer go to death. ”

The Star Soul Empress smiled faintly, then shook her head again.

Obviously, Yang Yi's attitude is not only asking her, but also threatening her, or coercion. It was not the Human Federation that advocated launching a strategic counterattack, but the Weaving Star Clan, and Yang Yi was only commanding the Human Legion to assist the Weaving Star Clan. If the Star Soul Empress refused to help, that is, the relevant technology that Yang Yi needed, even if Yang Yi would die generously, the Star Weaver Clan would not be able to gain any benefit from it. Looking at the long term, after missing this opportunity, especially after Yang Yi died in battle, the Weaver Clan will not only lose the basis for forming an alliance with the Human Federation, but the Human Federation authorities will also take this opportunity to make trouble. When the time comes, reinforcements from other civilizations arrive, and the Weaver Clan is no longer the only option. Even if it didn't develop to this point, Yang Yi just failed to complete the combat mission because of this, which led to the setback of the counterattack led and launched by the Weaver Clan, and the consequences were very bad. It's very simple, the Lei Ling Clan and the Hidden Spirit Clan will definitely not sit on the sidelines.

It can be said that the Star Soul Empress has no other choice on this issue.

It was precisely because of this clear understanding that Yang Yi had the courage to give the Star Soul Empress a problem.

It's just, agree to Yang Yi's request?

You know, for thousands of years, the technology to make the Origin Converter has always been in the hands of top civilizations, and it has never been passed on. Although some advanced civilizations have obtained some technology through various channels and can make Origin Converters, they are also very limited, and can only make ordinary large Origin Converters, and the grade is not much higher. The technology of making a small primordial energy converter is the most important, so far, only three first-class top-level civilizations can make a small primordial energy converter of S-level or above, and the other four second-rate top-level civilizations do not have this ability. As for low-level civilizations like the Human Federation, they have only been able to buy Origin Converters from top-level civilizations for thousands of years.

The Star Soul Empress hesitated, she needed some time to figure out the powerful relationship. (To be continued.) )
