698 Shipwrecked

On the evening of May 1, 2214, the battle of DX136 that lasted more than six hours finally came to an end, and the Atlanteans completely defeated the Saucer Clan after paying the heavy price of more than 3,000 warships, and more than 4,000 of the 5,000 Flying Saucers were destroyed on the spot, and only more than 1,000 Flying Saucers escaped from DX136.

After the battle, the Atlanteans rescued their own men as quickly as possible, and then evacuated DX136 without even cleaning the battlefield.

At this time, the two Aquila-class battleships had already converged with the God of War, but there was no need for the three human warships to do it here.

Ye Fei then reported the complete history of the battle to the strategic command center, and the command center reported that the six Saucer systems, including DX136, were attacked by the Atlanteans at the same time.

However, DX136 is the largest, and the total number of Atlantis fleets that have attacked several other systems combined is less than 2,000.

That is, the total number of warships sent by the Atlanteans this time reached a record eight thousand!

But the question arises, when did the Morrow system have so many warships?

Mankind has not figured out the specific scope of the Moro Star Domain, so it is impossible to calculate the total number of warships in the Moro Star Domain fleet, but when the Vulture left, it was impossible to shrink the warships that Perian drew from various galaxies There were only more than 200 in total, and if all the galaxies were concave like YM17 and half of the garrison fleet, it could be inferred that the strength of the entire Moro Star Domain would not exceed five hundred warships.

And the attacked Saucer system is all located near the Moro war zone, where did Perian get so many warships?

Humanity knows so little about the Atlanteans. Recently, the focus of military operations has been on the Saucers, and intelligence on the Atlanteans has come to a virtual standstill.

The Vulture's contact with Perian was on March 14, after which the Vulder kept an eye on Perian until the military confirmed the execution of the revenge plan, and the Vulture, which received the order, quietly left and lurked in the Saucer Star Field.

The time is April 12, 2214.

Perian had not made any anomalous movements for nearly a month, but he had sent information about humanity to the Atlantis Nation higher-ups as early as March 14th.

But at this time, the top management of the Atlanteans did not approve of Periande's report, and it was difficult for them to believe that a race that had just entered the cosmic age would have such a strong strength.

It wasn't until March 22, when five warships led by the Ares raided YM17 that Atlantis faced up to human combat power for the first time.

And the sneak attack of the Disc Clan scared the Atlanteans out of a cold sweat. If the administrative center of a star field is breached by the Saucer Clan. Military and political officials, including Periande, will be punished with the severest punishment - in the Atlantean civilization, the most severe punishment is not the death penalty, but the stripping of the title of Guizhou!

The Atlanteans practiced a top-down aristocratic rule, for a Guizhou. Losing the title of Guizhou means that you can no longer hold any position. Absolute life is worse than death.

Usually. The various star fields of Atlantis are equivalent to the fiefdom of the deacon, and the deacon has the right to dispose of all the resources of the fief, at the same time. The ruler also needs to run a fiefdom and raise an army to defend the territory.

The Moro Star Domain is a relatively remote star region in the entire Atlantis Star Country, which is equivalent to what humans often call an economically underdeveloped area, and Perriande does not want to form a strong army, but he does not have that strength at all. If it weren't for the star field controlled by the Saucer Clan, all the resources would be tilted towards the military, but I am afraid that he would not even be able to make up the hundreds of warships in his hand - the star field located on the border could have been able to expand the area of the star field through guò colonization outward and control more resources, but the Moro Star Domain was economically inclined to the military, the fleet was held back by the Saucer Clan, and the perennial war consumed a large number of people, so that Perian could not take out his hand to expand his strength at all.

Fortunately, the Disc Clan and Perian have dealings with each other, and no one can take much advantage, and they can barely maintain a balance.

However, the sneak attack on YM17 by the Saucer Clan was completely beyond Periande's expectations, not to mention that he transferred half of the warships, even if the main force stayed in YM17, the total number of warships did not exceed a hundred, and the sneak attack troops of the Saucer Clan were still a situation of fewer victories and more defeats.

Periande, who was apprehensive, found that any of the planets in the Moro Star Domain were no longer safe, and the Lord of Perian, who was almost doomed, did not want to live under the threat of the Saucer Clan in the future.

The advantage of fiefdom is that the territory is divided into a number of regions, each of which is equivalent to an independent kingdom, which does have a positive side when the level of transportation does not allow for effective rule over the entire territory.

But the disadvantages of fiefdom-style rule also come from this, the independent star field has no direct connection with the state whether it is economic or military, if there is only a little bit of subordinate relationship on the political zhì, I am afraid that it will not be long before the entire Atlantis star country will be in flames, and then the entire country will fall apart.

In order to prevent this from happening, the central star field of the Atlantis star country is much more extensive than other star fields, rich in resources and developed economy, and its military strength is far beyond any border star field.

The state form of the Atlanteans seems to be stable, but the central star field also needs to expand and develop, but the central star field, which is surrounded by many border star fields, cannot find a place to expand unless it cannibalizes the border star field.

And the price of the border star domain's request for support from the central star field is to hand over part of the fief to the central star domain according to the strength of the central star field's support, which is extremely heavy, almost equivalent to cutting meat from Periande's heart!

The Moro Star Domain was not a rich star field in the first place, and half of it was cut off at once, and even the old nest of YM17 was taken away.

The price Perian paid was almost like smashing the pot and selling iron, but at this time he couldn't care so much.

Behind the seemingly crazy decision, Perian is very sober.

No matter what the price is paid now, as long as the Saucer Clan can be completely wiped out with the help of the Praetorian Legion, there will be time for the Moro Star Domain to start over. If he is reluctant to give up the fief in his hand, once the Moro Star Domain is captured by the Saucer Clan, he will become an empty nobleman who has lost all his fiefdoms, and unless he can recapture the Moro Star Domain, the situation of the empty nobleman is not as good as that of an ordinary commoner.
