The victory of Operation Flashtail and the entire end of the Battle of the Western Desert gave Gu Hang more than 12,000 gifts.

This number is actually a bit small compared to the number of enemy mechanical units destroyed.

However, Gu Hang still accepted this easily.

First, the growth of the scale of the war and the increase in the number of reward points are not linear in themselves, which has been verified in his previous experience; Second, these mechanical units seem to be a little less 'valuable' in the judgment of the system.

At this point, Gu Hang now has more than 16,000 gift points in hand - the extra 3,000 points come from the distribution of this month's fixed income.

However, Gu Hang didn't use these gift points.

He had to keep a hand.

Mainly for the subsequent deterioration of the situation, he must have enough Gift Points to train the army.

1 point of gift, to be able to train a team of 100 people, I used to look at it and think it was quite cheap. But at the moment, the number of troops is hundreds of thousands at every turn, and the gift points required for that training are thousands of jumps.

This is not too small to ignore.

But if you are determined to rely on your own strength to bulldoze the Blackbird Heavy Industry in the west of the continent, then you have to spend this level.

Does the alliance have the ability to push the Blackbird Heavy Industries in the west of the continent?

Yes, there is.

After the second-level mobilization order was issued, the alliance's manpower pool was already 700,000. This is the number that can be conscripted, and in addition to the 450,000 who have already enlisted in the army, there are more than 200,000 left.

This is not an inventory of potential manpower, and these more than 200,000 people have all been registered. Address, occupation, place of work, name, family information...... The recruitment office of the Ministry of Military Affairs is well aware of this.

The centralized and planned political system of the Union is a great advantage here. More than 200,000 notices will be delivered to these people's homes whenever necessary, and within a week they will all be in the boot camp.

The military production of the alliance is also full under the mobilization order, and the corresponding equipment is working overtime; Gu Hang had the monthly gift point income issued in the latest month, nearly 4,000 points, and more than 10,000 gifts that had just been settled, and he didn't use them indiscriminately.

If necessary, you can explode troops.

Not only these more than 200,000 people, but if necessary, a first-level mobilization order can be pulled, and the reserve force can directly come to the 500,000 level.

Not to mention the higher-level mobilization order, just blow up the 200,000 troops, fill the front line, and then have a month to use for the production of logistics supplies. The Alliance can launch another large-scale campaign - a little bigger than Operation Flashtail. Push to the hinterland of the blackbird in one fell swoop.

But...... In this way, the loss will definitely not be less.

Penetrating deep into the enemy's zone of control, the Alliance's supply lines will stretch very long; On the contrary, the enemy fights on the spot and it will be much easier to resupply. It is no longer possible to seize the good opportunity of Operation Flashtail to form a large-scale war of annihilation.

Even, if you really have to wait for a month, after such a large-scale attack, I am afraid that the number of enemy troops will recover a lot.

Fortunately, the Bladed Tiger in the sky has always been carrying out orbital bombardment to the west of the continent.

Although the core area of Blackbird City was shrouded in an energy shield and could not be destroyed, the outer city was almost flattened.

Then, passing through Starport, the Bladed Tiger replenished its ammunition from the surface and began bombing again. This time, they went around the orbit over Blackbird City, dropped a few shots, and found that there was nothing to bomb on the periphery, so they shifted the target again and went to bomb some possible high-value targets found by the alliance intelligence officers in the activities of Daluxi.

Even, they took the time to find some retreating and gathered enemies during and after the flashtail operation, and dropped a wave of bombardment.

It's just that the firepower of the Blade Tiger is still a little insufficient, and the results of the explosion are ...... That's it.

Objectively speaking, it is still very helpful. Because, you can't just look at their kill records, you have to consider, for example, after bombing Blackbird City, there will be huge damage to the productivity of Blackbird Heavy Industries;

There is also a huge threat to the supply of Blackbird Heavy Industries, so that their supply convoys do not dare to operate large-scale and concentrated troops and materials, otherwise they may be bombed;

There is also a great threat to the Blackbird's front-line army, once there is a Blackbird's army, assembled in the wilderness, in an environment with a better view, it is detected by the alliance's air force, and as soon as the coordinates are uploaded, it will soon be attacked by the sharp blade tiger. This made the Blackbird's mechanical legion not dare to assemble troops in advance on a large scale, and even if it was assembled, it did not dare to be too dense, and it had to be camouflaged to avoid being detected and reduce losses even if it was bombed......

These did cause problems for the Blackbird, and they were huge.

However, it is also limited to trouble.

Does not constitute a fatal advantage that directly affects the balance of victory.

In the final analysis, the bladed tigers are not fierce enough, and the help provided is relatively limited, and the main battle still needs to rely on the warriors of the alliance to take it.

Gu Hang has already prepared for the worst, if not, then the alliance will go all out. In order to win the final victory, it is not necessary to pay more price.

However, before that, Gu Hang still needs to make one last effort from other aspects.

Dragon Eagle 3rd Legion, when will it arrive?

Gu Hang dialed in touch with his mother.

Not even in the mood to greet him, Gu Hang asked directly, "What did the Faches family say?" Today has come the time for an ultimatum. Two days ago, I asked you to help me relay my attitude, and this is the last time I ask this question. I now have to know what their answer really is. ”

Gu Hang strongly expressed his dissatisfaction.

Ms. Wang Qi looked a little helpless: "Their answer this time is a little different from the last time. It was all said before that the 3rd Legion of the Dragon Eagle was only stationed on the three planets of Falcis, and the Falchers family did not have the power to mobilize the Astral Legion in the star field, but only said that they would try their best to coordinate and lobby to be able to send troops. Now, they no longer give those reasons, but have really agreed, and they will definitely send troops, and the number will not be less than a million......"

"What is this?! What about time? Gu Hang immediately interrupted his mother's words, although it was not very polite, but he really couldn't help it.

"No, my people are still talking to them."

"It's ridiculous!" Gu Hang was quite angry and made a final request: "If within ten hours, the 3rd Legion of the Dragon Eagle has not set off from the planet of Falces, then I will regard it as the Fastes family has rejected our kindness. I swear that in the battle with Blackbird Heavy Industries, I will find conclusive evidence that the Falchers family has a full connection to the Iron Man Rebellion! ”

"Uh......" Wang Qi's face was a little ugly, and she whispered, "Wouldn't this be too strong?" ”

"I've had enough of their prevarication and delays, we are not allies with them, but we still told them the information about the Blackbird and the Iron Man Rebellion as soon as possible, so that they could avoid being passive, and for this reason, we may even offend the head of Pedes. This is me, it is the kindness of the Gu family, and as a result, is this how they repay us? ”

Wang Qi sighed and said, "I understand." ”

After ending the call with his mother, Gu Hang called Tadius, the head of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and Osaina, the prime minister of the alliance, respectively, and told them to make a plan.

Ten hours, this is not Gu Hang talking nonsense and bragging, he made a warning, then of course he has the ability to turn this warning into facts.

The blackbird is the property of the Fastes family, and it is very difficult for them to wash their shit, which must be cooperated by Gu Hang. And if Gu Hang doesn't cooperate, or even makes trouble for them, and 'discovers' a little special evidence, their trouble will become very big. Especially the Gu family has its own political capital, and at the same time, Pei Desi will be quite happy to help with this.

In addition, even without the help of the Astral Army, Gu Hang would be able to destroy the blackbird with casualties.

It is nothing more than to pull the mobilization order to the first level and increase the number of troops by more than 400,000. Gu Hang had to pay 4,000 points of gifts to train all these 400,000 people into qualified soldiers.

In addition to training, to equip them with sufficient weapons, the alliance's industrial capacity is needed, and a comprehensive shift from civilian industry to military industry is required.

The plan he asked Osena and Tadius to make was this.

In this way, with the existing army, it is estimated that the Blackbird will be pushed away within half a year.

There will be huge casualties, not only for the soldiers, but also for the civilian population in the western part of the continent. After the industry is greatly transferred to the military industry, it will also have an impact on the industrial development of the alliance.

But if the price must be paid, then it will be paid. Gu Hang will make the Facher family pay tenfold, hundredfold the price.

Thankfully, this didn't happen.

Three hours later, Ms. Wang Qi gave him the latest news.

Wang Qi personally communicated with the leader of the Facher family, Ivan Faches, fully conveying Gu Hang's attitude, and she herself clearly expressed her opinions as the head of the Gu family.

To put it bluntly, it is a ruthless threat, as well as some exchange of interests.

And the Falchers family has reached this point, and finally there is no room for delay.

They promised that they would follow Gu Hang's request and send the first batch of Astral Army troops to the Gu merchant ship in the starport that had been docked on the Fachers 2 within ten hours—now seven hours.

A million troops were not so easy to transport, and it is expected that the first batch will arrive, with more than twenty divisions and no less than 300,000 people. They will take the 'giant belly' transport ship of the Gu Merchant House, accompanied by armed merchant ships, and come to the Angry Owl Star.

Hearing this news, Gu Hang breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, it seems that the alliance does not need to sound the first-level mobilization order.

Of course, he did not cancel the plan in the first place.

The Falchers family has a criminal record.

Gu Hang needed his mother to give him the exact news. Seven hours later, the Astral Force had already begun to board the ship.

If Falchers deceived him and things were still dragging on, then everything was suspended and Gu Hang would no longer be counting on additional reinforcements.

And this time, Fastchers was warned enough that they didn't dare to play tricks.

In fact, eight hours after the final warning was issued, soldiers from the Astral Army had already boarded Starport, and from here they boarded the transport ships that had been waiting here.

Boarding will take a while, and then sailing from the Faltcher system to the Raging Owl system, which will also take time.

All in all, this first batch of Astral Army support troops will arrive at Raging Owl in twenty-two days.

It's very comfortable.

Gu Hang could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and informed Yan Fangxu, who was commanding operations in the Western Theater, of this information.

Yan Fangxu was also overjoyed.

Of course, it's good for me to have strong reinforcements coming. If he could, he didn't want his own soldiers to go shopping.

He made up his mind that in the next twenty days, he would focus on stability, reduce losses as much as possible, and wait for the Astral Army to come, and then march westward.

Before the arrival of the Astral Army, the Raging Owl will first welcome a group of other visitors from outside the sky.

Imperial Tax Fleet.

It's time for the angry owl to pay his taxes.

But the embarrassing thing is that the imperial tax that Angry Owl will pay this year is still on the battlefield on the Western Front.

……

The Apostle of War of the Sun Lord, Pochoia Gallardo, is on his way to the Raging Owl system aboard a destroyer with a 'giant belly'.

He stood in front of the window, and the brilliant brilliance left by the astral tunnel just crossed the astral boundary seemed to still be left in his eyes, but in fact, the window had become an endless starry sky.

The Astral Tunnel has been passed, and in a day or two, you will be able to reach the Raging Star.

"I heard that this Raging Star used to be a very rich resource-based garden planet?"

"Yes." Standing next to him was a lady who did not smile.

Her name is Nell Loys, and she is the supreme head of this tax fleet, a high-ranking official of the Imperial Tax Department, overseeing the tax work of the entire Dragon Eagle Star Domain.

Her working mode is to take a huge tax fleet, under the escort of the Dragon Eagle Fleet, and sail through the 37 star regions of the entire Dragon Eagle Star Domain for many years. For each voyage, it takes about a year and a half to collect taxes. She needs to calculate the time interval for each star sector to pay taxes, some are two years, some are five years, or even ten years.

Then, it took another four months of sailing time to take the imperial tax collected by the Dragon Eagle Star Domain and send it to a higher administrative unit, that is, the distribution center designated by the government of the Eastern Celestial Domain.

These taxes will be sent to wherever they are needed, under the orders of the Imperial Capital, the Human Home Planet, and the Government of Holy Terra.

And after delivering the taxes, Loys will soon return to the Dragon Eagle Star Domain, and then he has to cruise in the 37 star regions to collect taxes...... Cycle.

Faced with the question of the War Apostle, Loys recalled, remembered some pictures, and said: "That's true, when I first started to be the tax director of the Dragon Eagle Star Domain, I came here to collect taxes, and this is indeed a rare high-quality planet, but unfortunately, the war more than a hundred years ago completely destroyed the Angry Owl Star." ”

She is qualified to say so.

She has been doing this work for one hundred and fifty years.

She is two hundred years old this year, but her appearance is still that of a middle-aged woman.

She has already had three life-extension surgeries and is about to have a fourth.

When she first started working in the tax office, she had indeed seen the appearance of the Raging Owl at its peak.

I've also seen the Angry Owl at its worst, and even in recent decades, several governors who have been shot on the Angry Owl have been ordered by her personally.
