"Forward" post.

As the starting point of the route to the Northern Alpha System through the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, it was also the bridgehead between the Legion of the Stars and the Human Expeditionary Force, and was handed over to the Legion of the Stars after the expedition began. Although Yu Linglong thought that the Jade family could defend this outpost, and the outpost belonged to the Human Federation, and there were several legions of garrisons, it was not suitable for the Weaver Clan Legion to garrison it, but Yang Yi thought that it was safer to be guarded by the Weaver Legion, so he let the Star Soul Empress leave a few legions. It's just that these Weaver legions are not stationed inside the outpost, but outside the outpost. In order to facilitate the movement of these legions, the Star Soul Empress also left some warships behind.

Now, this arrangement has played a crucial role.

It was because of these Weaver Legions that the Thunderling Legion did not come to attack the forward post after sweeping the entire Greenwich Line. It's not that these Weaver Legions are very strong in combat, but attacking the outposts guarded by the Weaver Legions is tantamount to starting a war with the Weavers. Obviously, before making sufficient preparations for war, that is, having the certainty of defeating the Weaver Clan, the Wanluo War Emperor would not rashly start the war.

It's just that everyone knows that the flames of war will soon burn here.

At this time, the outpost has been taken over by the Weaver Legion. It's not that the human officers and soldiers guarding the legion are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they don't dare to compete with the Lei Ling legion, but with their strength, they can't hold the outpost at all. After learning that the other outposts on the Greenwich Line had been controlled by the Thundering Legion, the commander of the outpost took the initiative to hand over the outpost to the Weaver Legion, to be precise, to have the Weaver Legion stationed at the outpost to assist them in guarding the outpost. Shortly thereafter, the female warrior guard led by Otis returned. Because the situation had not gotten out of control, let alone reached the point of war with the Lei Ling Clan, the female warrior guards stayed behind to take care of the main army of the Weaver Clan, which could return at any time.

The arrival of the female samurai guards greatly increased the combat effectiveness of the defenders of the outpost.

Although there were only a hundred female warriors, ten Shadow Ships, plus a hundred powerful space fighters, and the presence of Otis, a king-level powerhouse, were enough to deal with an average level of attack. To put it bluntly, unless the Wanluo War Emperor personally conquers, don't want to build the advance fortress.

So, will the Wanluo War Emperor come in person?

Obviously, the answer is yes.

Don't forget, the Forward Outpost guards the route to the Northern Alpha System, and the three thousand main legions of the Weaver Clan are all in the Northern Alpha System. The purpose of the Wanluo War Emperor is to force the Star Soul Empress to compromise in order to keep everything now, so he has to prevent the main army of the Star Weaver Clan from returning to the North Fourth District at any cost. In order to avoid a full-scale war between two top civilizations, it is necessary to capture the advance fortress.

Of course, if the Wanluo War Emperor came in person, he would definitely not be able to defend the outpost with only a few Weaver Clan legions and female warrior guards.

When Yang Yi and Barnes arrived, everything was normal at the outpost, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. However, this is only a superficial phenomenon. There were dozens of Weaver warships looming around the outpost, and while there were no Shadow Guards Misses, they were definitely somewhere nearby. In addition, the outpost's defenses have been significantly strengthened, with the addition of a number of heavy weapons that can pose a threat to the capital ship, as well as the addition of a large SSS-class Origin Converter. Unsurprisingly, inside the outpost was an energy barrier drive. If you are attacked, you will be protected by a powerful energy barrier. It's just that the Weaver Clan Legion is obviously not ready for battle.

In fact, the Legion of the Weavers has no intention of holding out here.

It's very simple, the Star Soul Empress has already given an order to the main army of the Weaver Clan in the Northern Alpha Galaxy, but it will definitely take a lot of time for the three thousand legions to withdraw, so the task of the Weaver Clan Legion and the Female Warrior Guard here is only to temporarily hold the outpost. When the main army withdraws, this post will no longer be needed. At the speed of action of the Weaver Legion, it would only be a few months at most.

In order not to be discovered by the Weaver Legion in the outpost, the "Crown Prince" did not approach the outpost, but ended the space jump far away from the outpost. Subsequently, Yang Yi and Barnes flew over in a space fighter. Of course, the two did not approach the outpost either.

Now, all the two need to do is be patient.

"Looks like we're early."

"It's not too early." Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "The Star Soul Empress has a tough attitude and has already begun to dispatch troops, unless the Wanluo War Emperor is a fool, he will take action as soon as possible, and he will not give the Star Soul Empress too much time." If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid the Thunder Ling Clan's fleet is almost here. ”

"Do you think that the Wanluo War Emperor will personally lead the fleet to attack the outpost?"

"Is there any other choice?" Yang Yi glanced at Barnes and said, "Otis is here, and there is also a female warrior guard commanded by her. In the Lei Ling Clan, who else is Otis other than Wanluo War Emperor? It's not nothing, such as brave warriors with strong combat effectiveness. It's just that Otis has a hundred female warriors under his command, and even if the remaining sixty brave warriors come, they may not be able to defeat the female warrior guards. Besides, if she can't take the outpost in one fell swoop and the battle drags on, the Star Soul Empress will definitely send legions and fleets to support Otis. When the time comes, a full-scale war breaks out, and the main army of the Weaver Clan will definitely speed up. As long as the Wanluo War Emperor is not too stupid, he will take the outpost as quickly as possible, and the only way to not give the Star Soul Empress a chance to adjust his deployment is to drive the expedition himself. Of course, if the Wanluo War Emperor tries to control the situation and prevent the conflict from turning into a war, he needs to fight to take the fortress in one fell swoop. ”

"In that case, he is the only one who can deal with Otis."

Yang Yi nodded and said, "Of course, he will also bring the Yongyi team." To put it simply, as long as you can defeat the female warrior guards led by Otis, you can take the fortress in one fell swoop and minimize the casualties. When the time comes, there will be a chance to force the Star Soul Empress to compromise. Whether it is a stalemate or a huge number of casualties, the battle here will be the trigger for an all-out war between the two top civilizations. ”

Barnes let out a long breath and didn't say much.

"Besides, we don't have to rush to make a move."

"What do you mean?"

Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "Since we know that Otis's female warrior guard is here, then the Wanluo War Emperor will definitely bring the Yongyi clan over." As expected, he would first have the Valiant Warrior Guard deal with the Female Samurai Guards, or rather divert the Female Samurai Guards, and then send out the fleet to surround the fortress and try to take it in one fell swoop. Because of the lack of support from the female warrior guards, and the fact that the Wanluo War Emperor personally went into battle, the few Weaver Clan legions guarding the fortress were obviously powerless. As for the human legion, they can only sigh with admiration. There is no doubt that if all goes well, the Lei Ling Clan Legion will soon be able to build a fortress and cut off the route for the main force of the Weaver Clan to return to the Northern Fourth District. ”

"In that case, we should ...... more"

"We can all think of it, can't the Star Soul Empress think of it?"

"This ......"

Yang Yi glanced at Barnes and said, "Obviously, the Star Soul Empress knows the importance of the outpost, otherwise she wouldn't have let Otis come here with the female warrior guards." The problem is that Otis is certainly not an opponent for the Wanluo War Emperor, and the Wanluo War Emperor obviously will not miss the opportunity to capture the outpost. It can be said that everyone would have thought that after sweeping the Greenwich Line, the Wanluo War Emperor would definitely personally attack the advance post. Didn't the Star Soul Empress think of it? If she had thought of it a long time ago, she wouldn't just let Otis and other female warriors wait here to die. According to my judgment, the Star Soul Empress must be secretly watching, and will take action against the Wanluo War Emperor when necessary. ”

"But ......"

"Of course, she asked Otis to come here with a female warrior guard, just to force the Wanluo War Emperor to dispatch the Brave Warrior Clan, so as to get a chance to deal with the Wanluo War Emperor alone."

"She can defeat Wanluo War Emperor?"

Yang Yi shook his head and said, "Actually, this is also something I have never figured out. Before, we were intercepted by the Wanluo War Emperor in the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, and although I defeated the Brave Clan, the Star Soul Empress showed combat power that was obviously under the Wanluo War Emperor. In other words, even without those forty brave warriors, she is not the opponent of Wanluo Zhanhuang, and her current arrangement is obviously to fight to the death with Wanluo Zhanhuang. So, where did she get her faith from? Obviously, she must have had other plans. So, what is her arrangement? Or, how does she want to deal with Wanluo War Emperor? Don't be afraid of your jokes, we have to be patient before we get to the bottom of this. ”

understood what Yang Yi meant, Barnston came to his senses and admired Yang Yi in every way.

Obviously, the Star Soul Empress must have other preparations. If they are in a hurry to make a move, they will not be able to know the Star Soul Empress's calculations, and they will become very passive.

In addition, Barnes also heard Yang Yi's unspoken meaning.

That is, the Star Soul Empress is a more difficult opponent to deal with than the Wanluo War Emperor.

In fact, this is also Yang Yi's real situation now. To put it simply, no matter what the outcome of the decisive battle between the Star Soul Empress and the Wanluo War Emperor will be, the relationship between Yang Yi and the Star Soul Empress will come to an end. When the time comes, even if you are not an enemy, you will not be able to continue to be friends. What's more, the Wanluo War Emperor is at the end of his rope, but the Star Soul Empress is not. In the long run, it is the Star Soul Empress that needs to be guarded against.

Thinking of this, Barnes also had a bottom in his heart.

Now that Yang Yi's friendship with the Star Soul Empress has come to an end, in the near future, Yang Yi will definitely reconsider his relationship with the Hidden Spirit Clan.

Either way, it's a good thing.

You must know that Yang Yi needs a strong ally, and the Hidden Spirit Clan also needs a strong ally. No matter what happened in the past, there is a basis for an alliance as long as there are common interests. In fact, this is what Barnes has been striving for, and it is also the key to his active support for Yang Yi.

Barnes wasn't stupid and quickly figured it out.

Yang Yi didn't say anything more, he had already released a signal of an alliance with the Hidden Spirit Clan, as for what kind of outcome it would be, it was not something he could control. (To be continued.) )
