Chapter 686: Ambition Shattered
In the Holmes system, fierce battles have been going on day and night for nearly ten days, turning this originally bustling and lively star system into a ruined land.
In the lingua franca of the Silicon Alliance, "Holmes" means "happy place", and the Hall people who live here are also known for their gentle temperament. For millions of years, the Hall people have been known for their business and construction in the Silicon Alliance, and can be said to be the architects and artists of the Northern Alpha System. It is precisely because of this that the combat effectiveness of the Hall people is not strong, and not many Hall people are willing to fight on the battlefield. Because the Silicon Charm Alliance does not have a second Hall, even in the most difficult times, the War Emperor rarely comes here to recruit soldiers. It can be said that the Holmes system has not been poisoned by war, let alone devastated in the past millions of years.
Perhaps, none of the Hall people believed that they would become cannon fodder under the fires of war.
It's just that after the arrival of that huge silicon fleet, all this became a reality. To the disbelief of all the Hallers, this fleet under the banner of the Phantom Ghost Emperor actually said that they were traitors to the Silicon Phantom Alliance, and demanded that they immediately and unconditionally surrender.
Obviously, the Hall people simply couldn't figure out how they had become traitors.
You know, they have been keeping to themselves, but they have just obeyed the orders of another Silicon Charm army, and this Silicon Charm army is also under the banner of the War Emperor. In the eyes of the Hall people, all the War Emperors are the commanders of the Silicon Charm Alliance, and they listen to the command of any War Emperor the same.
The Hallers had no choice but to be shrunken turtles.
The experience of the past millions of years has taught them that as long as they don't come out, then no matter which Emperor wins, they will not embarrass the Hallers. The reason is also very simple, Hall people are irreplaceable. As long as the Silicon Alliance is still around, those War Emperors will need the Hallers to help them build their homes.
It was precisely because of this that after the arrival of that huge silicon fleet, the Hall people immediately declared neutrality.
Unfortunately, the Holmes system was not spared the poison of war.
In just ten days, the battlefield was transferred from space to the ground. After the decisive victory of the later Silicon Charm fleet, the previously arrived Silicon Charm army retreated to the various planets. Although they lost the initiative and even had their escape routes cut off, the Silicon Charm army did not surrender, but instead set up defensive positions on the main planet of the Holmes system, and swooped forward to meet the enemy's attack.
Now, all the warships that can sail in the Holmes system are those ships under the banner of the Phantom Ghost Emperor.
This is indeed a large fleet, but it is not powerful, although there are tens of thousands of warships, but the total number of capital ships is less than a thousand, most of them are small warships, and they are mainly patrol ships that are not suitable for fleet operations. It's just that the opponent's strength is weaker.
After a decisive victory, the fleet was divided into more than a dozen small fleets, all but the main fleet where the flagship was located, and all the other small fleets were sent to various planets. Although almost all of them are small warships, they are obviously more than enough to deal with those enemies entrenched on the planet. It is clear that the commander of this fleet did not take the life or death of the Hall people seriously at all, and his task was to destroy the enemy entrenched here. If necessary, he would even destroy the entire Holmes system. He didn't do so, only temporarily, because he hadn't completed his most important mission, which was to capture alive the leader of the rebels, the top king of war who could take refuge with the enemy.
Why did he capture that traitor alive, Dibabu couldn't figure it out.
Although there is enough evidence to prove that the Dragon God Empress is indeed the War Emperor, not only has the War Emperor genes, but also has a Silicon Charm Alliance Holy Weapon, but there is also enough evidence that the Dragon God Empress has an extraordinary relationship with the Galactic Alliance, to be precise, with the human soldier named Yang Yi, and it can even be said that the Dragon God Empress sat on the throne of the War Emperor with Yang Yi's support. In other words, it was not only the top war king named Curia who betrayed the Silicon Charm Alliance, but also the Dragon God Empress who was controlled by Yang Yi. Now that the evidence is conclusive, do you still need to capture Kuria alive? For traitors, wouldn't it be enough to be directly executed? Is it possible to arrest him back and interrogate him, and then make him confess?
You must know that in the Silicon Phantom Alliance, the War Emperor is the law, as long as the Phantom Ghost Emperor determines that Curia is a traitor, then Kuria must be a traitor.
Besides, it is obviously much easier to eliminate Kuria than to capture Kuria alive.
It's just a top-level war king, even with the support of the human expeditionary force, he is not qualified to compete with the war emperor.
In Dibab's opinion, the easiest way to do this is to destroy the Holmes system, leaving Kuria, along with the Warlords who have rebelled with him, and the Silicon Legion under his command all shattered. As for the Hallers, it is obviously a secondary issue, after all, the Silicon Charm Alliance has never been short of manpower.
Obviously, Di Babu couldn't figure out why a betrayed top-level war king made the Phantom Ghost Emperor pay so much attention.
Actually, it's not that I can't figure it out, but that Dibabu doesn't dare to admit it.
That is, in his opinion, the Phantom Ghost Emperor sent him to command the Silicon Phantom fleet to deal with Curia, and also explicitly ordered him to bring Curia back alive, not to personally execute Curia, but to separate him from the decisive battle against the main army of the Weaver Clan.
The point is, Di Babu is not the top war king canonized by the Phantom Ghost Emperor!
In fact, Dibab didn't want the Phantom Emperor to return. As early as hundreds of years ago, that is, when the areas under the jurisdiction of the top war kings were redivided, Di Babu and several other top war kings who were not canonized by the Phantom Ghost Emperor felt that the Phantom Ghost Emperor did not take them seriously, and the jurisdiction assigned to them was either in a desolate remote area, or in a key place facing the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, and the prosperous and wealthy areas were all ruled by the top war kings canonized by the Phantom Ghost Emperor. It is precisely because of this that in the hundreds of years since the Phantom Ghost Emperor disappeared, several top war kings such as Dibabu have never become the climate, nor have they ever obtained the dominance of the Silicon Phantom Alliance.
After the return of the Phantom Ghost Emperor, will Dibabu's situation improve?
The answer is clearly no.
It can be said that if there was no war, the first thing the Phantom Ghost Emperor would do after his return was to eradicate Dibabu and several other top war kings, at least Dibabu thought so. Because the war broke out, the strong enemy had already entered the Northern Alpha Galaxy, and the Phantom Ghost Emperor needed to rely on them, so he didn't deal with them. It's just that this situation will definitely not last long, after all, the Phantom Ghost Emperor doesn't believe them at all.
In fact, before the outbreak of the war, Dibabu and several other top war kings discussed the impact of the Phantom Ghost Emperor's return, or countermeasures.
At that time, the five top war kings, including Dibab, Kutum, and Lombardo, held a secret meeting to discuss what they should do after the Phantom Ghost Emperor returned. Although there are great differences, on key issues, the views of the five top war kings are completely unanimous, that is, it is difficult for the Phantom Ghost Emperor to tolerate their existence, and he will definitely find a way to get rid of them, and even take action to eradicate them himself.
For this reason, Kutum advocated waging a war to increase their status and importance, so that the Phantom Ghost Emperor would not dare to dispose of them at will. Kutum's reason is very simple, as long as the war with the Galactic Alliance breaks out, only by maintaining internal stability can victory be achieved, and during the war, the top war king has the command of the legion, and can also gain some autonomy, even if he turns against the Phantom Ghost Emperor, he can also support his own troops. It's just that Kutum's true intention is to suppress other top war kings through the war with the Galactic Alliance and become the supreme existence of the Silicon Charm Alliance. Don't forget, Kutum is the strongest, and the jurisdiction is close to the Greenwich Meteorite Belt.
Although he knew Kutum's true intentions, Lombardo also believed that it was time to start a war. It's just that Lombardo, like Kutum, has his own intentions. That is, Lombardo had always believed that the Jedi Emperor was not dead, but that for some reason he was trapped somewhere in the Southern Alpha system. Because he is a close confidant of the Jedi Emperor, as long as the Jedi Emperor returns, his status can be guaranteed, and he can also become the strongest top war king in the Silicon Charm Alliance, and it is even possible to sit on the throne of the War Emperor with the support of the Jedi Emperor. In fact, this is also Lombardo's ultimate goal, that is, to become the supreme existence of the Silicon Alliance through the Jedi Emperor.
It's just that Dibab is not so stupid.
War with the Galactic Alliance? Putting aside whether it is possible to win by relying on a few top war kings, after the outbreak of war, the Phantom Ghost Emperor may return at any time. As long as he receives the news, whether it is for himself or for the Silicon Phantom Alliance, the Phantom Ghost Emperor will definitely appear immediately. At that time, Kutum may not have yet sat on the throne of the overlord, and Lombardo has not yet found the Jedi Emperor, and has already been eliminated by the Phantom Ghost Emperor.
As for the Jedi Emperor, even if he is still alive, I'm afraid he is still a waste. Quite simply, if the Jedi Emperor is still the original Jedi Emperor, will he still be trapped in the Southern Alpha System for thousands of years? You must know that the Jedi Emperor is simply an invincible existence, as long as his strength is still there, he has already returned to the Northern Alpha System, and at least he can get in touch with the Silicon Phantom Alliance in some way to let everyone know about his existence.
In Dibab's eyes, Kutum is still a bit ambitious, while Lombardo is a complete wreck.
Of course, Dibab was adamantly opposed to starting a war, making it clear that they would not be able to command the Silicon Charm Alliance to victory, and whatever the final outcome would be, it was not what they wanted. Unfortunately, Dibab did not make constructive suggestions and failed to convince Kutum and Lombardo.
It's not that Dibab doesn't have a claim, but he can't say it.
In fact, like Kutum, he didn't pin his hopes on the missing War Emperors such as the Jedi Emperor, thinking that the only one he could rely on was himself. It's just that Dibab and Kutum don't think it's a good idea to start a war, because they know that there are other ways to achieve their goals.
This way is the reason why he went to Green Star.
It's a pity that the human soldier named Yang Yi shattered his dream. As the Silicon Charm army stopped advancing on the doorstep of the Human Federation, Dibabu's hopes were completely dashed. This series of changes also made Dibabu sober up and have a clearer understanding of himself. (To be continued.) )
