Chapter 396: It's Really a Thing

Could it be that they were ambushed by Beiliang and wiped out? This possibility is the greatest.

After all, Beiliang's act of sealing off the planetary fortress made Yuan Qi already have such a premonition, but now it is even stronger.

But it shouldn't be, what strength is the reinforcements of the Huowei Department, what strength is Beiliang? How could it be wiped out?

Prison Qi, who was troubled by these problems, did not expect that the planetary fortress was being cracked, mainly because such a thing had never happened before.

Moreover, Zero's method is difficult to be detected in the early stage, even if there are many geeks in the planetary fortress.

In this way, seven days passed while the planetary fortress was defenseless.

Zero will report the progress every day, and the daily average is about 8%.

Although it was a bit slower than expected, I can feel that the things I got from the Sky Blue Fortress are effective, otherwise the progress can be 1% every day.

In addition, Zero also deliberately controls the speed of cracking to prevent it from being discovered in advance.

If it is launched at full speed, the progress should be improved a lot.

Although Chen Han was very anxious, he spent every day in the torment of waiting.

But he wasn't idle either, he was already simulating the attack on the interior of the planetary fortress with Mu Qianye.

The number of warships rushing over from the planetary fortress is increasing day by day, full of prison-level aircraft and related pilots from various planets, and they are also in the process of tense deployment and waiting.

At the same time, far away in the Phobos and Gray Cave systems, there is a remote conversation about Beiliang.

The two sides are precisely Edith, who is the master of the terrorist star, and Wei Tu, the manager of the giant power star.

With the appearance of Edith's virtual projection, Wei Tu immediately stood up straight: "Master Star Master, something happened, the reinforcements we sent to the Milky Way system have lost contact for many days, I tried to contact them many times but there was no response... "

He is currently in the Gray Cave Department, responsible for the frontline war.

Originally, the Phobos reinforcements were sent by Edith, but later, Edith had to be busy with other things, so she gave him full authority.

It's really nothing, just a follow up.

After all, their strength is in a crushing situation, and the old army commander Bu Ben is also very reliable, so he doesn't need to worry too much.

So he has been contacting every three to five days to see the progress.

About five days ago, he reckoned that the reinforcements had almost arrived, so he wanted to ask about the situation.

Who knows this contact, five days have passed without any response, which has never happened before.

Even if the distance is relatively far and the signal is interfered, it will not be silent for so long.

If there is such a problem, there is only one possibility. The reinforcements are gone and killed.

Although I don't know the specific reason, the results and guesses basically don't have much deviation.

That's why Wei Tu immediately contacted Edith to report the situation.

"Well, kid, take a look at this." Edith didn't show much surprise at the news of Wei Tu, and nodded calmly in a very soft voice.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his finger and quickly transferred a file.

Inside are some scattered text messages, and the parameters show that they are from the Tianhe system and sent by the reinforcements of the Phobos system.

Probably the content is to be ambushed before going to the last star gate of the Milky Way system, so that the other side of the star gate will not come again.

There is also a report to the Phobos headquarters, explaining the heavy losses and so on.

Although I have watched it several times, Edith's heart is the most sad this time.

This matter was originally her follow-up.

It's just that the battle in the gray cave system is in full swing.

She also has to be busy communicating with the consuls of other galaxies, dealing with various diplomatic and internal affairs, all things.

It is estimated that there will be no accidents, so I leave it to Wei Tu to keep an eye on.

When she first received these scattered messages, she didn't pay much attention to them.

Because it is inevitable that there is an ambush at the star gate, if she were Chen Han, she would do the same, and this is Beiliang's only chance to resist.

However, this resistance was not fatal to the Phobos reinforcements.

As long as you are stronger than the enemy, you can calmly deal with an ambush.

Moreover, Beiliang's coming to ambush is equivalent to exposing the location, so as not to waste time looking around, I believe that the old army commander Bu Ben knows how to do it.

But with more and more bad text messages, Edith felt something was wrong.

Even if he was ambushed, his head would be in chaos at most, and it would soon calm down. How could there be so many urgent text messages?

In desperation, she took the initiative to contact the reinforcement fleet and wanted to inquire about the situation.

After all, the news is not real-time. By the time she receives the news, the battle over there is probably over long ago.

But before the communication was connected, Wei Tu contacted him first, and also explained the specific time when he lost contact.

Combining all kinds of things together, Edith also has a rough result in her heart.

Fortunately, she is a person who has experienced big storms, even if she is surprised by this in her heart, she will not show it too much on her expression.

And Weitu looked at these text messages, and couldn't calm down anymore, his face changed from doubt to incomparably serious.

A few seconds later, he took a step forward: "Master Star Master, our reinforcements were probably wiped out by Beiliang, and the old army commander Bu ran to him..."

Although he was very reluctant to say this sentence, he had to admit it at this time, and Bu Ben estimated that there was more than good luck.

"Well, it's really a trend." Edith didn't make any rebuttals, but just nodded.

She didn't know how Beiliang did it, it was almost impossible.

One disaster class, twenty Alpha class ships, two hundred heavy cavalry class ships, and more than a thousand Executioner class ships.

She thinks that this force is very powerful. Even if it is placed on the main battlefield of the gray hole system, the law enforcement federation of the gray hole system will not dare to underestimate it.

She had never thought of such a big change in what was supposed to be a certainty.

If she underestimated the enemy and caused a problem, then it was acceptable, and being able to comfort herself was the reason for underestimating the enemy.

But she didn't. Not only did she send a powerful reserve team, but also the old army commander Bu Ben, who was a subordinate who had fought with her for decades.

Could it be that Beiliang has become strong enough to compete with the Law Enforcer Federation of the third-level civilized star system in just a few months?

That is obviously impossible, and must have received some powerful support.

It's just that who dares to support the little-known Beiliang under the deterrent force of the Huowei Department on the cusp of the storm? Edith couldn't figure it out.

Anyway, the sudden failure, and she didn't know the reason for the failure, made her feel unspeakably uncomfortable.

"Master Star Lord, I have also contacted Prison Qi these few days, and we are also in a state of being out of contact. We have lost all news channels of the Milky Way System. I am worried..." Weitu continued, but he did not finish his sentence .

"Say, child." Edith could hear Wei Tu's meaning behind his words.

"First of all, it's not normal for Beiliang to beat our reinforcements. Someone must have tampered with it behind the scenes."

"There are two points of suspicion. The Gray Cave Department secretly supports us. They know that we have support intentions, and they probably disclosed it to Beiliang, allowing Beiliang to make preparations a long time in advance."

"There is also the Mark Group in the Hardison galaxy. Prison Qi said that he bought a large amount of supplies from them, but he never got them. There is a high probability that he has secretly colluded with Beiliang."

"If the Mark Group has provided Beiliang with enough munitions, coupled with advance preparations, it is not surprising that our reinforcements have been annihilated." Weitu analyzed every word.

Even if he wasn't there at all, he could still deduce what happened from the sporadic information of the Tianhe system.

"Well, kid, keep talking." Edith nodded and leaned back on the gorgeous chair with appreciation in her eyes.

Wei Tu can be regarded as the person she has valued the most in recent years.

Unlike Yunqi who is only obedient, Weitu is obedient and has a brain, and can share a lot of burdens for her.

Of course, she also gave Weitu what he needed. In the scope of the Phobo system, she ranked first in power, and Weitu was second. In the true sense, one person is below ten thousand.

Feeling Edith's gaze, Weitu took a light breath: "One more thing, Lord Star Master, logically speaking, it is impossible to disconnect the planetary fortress, unless it is blocked by itself, or it is occupied by Beiliang."

"With Beiliang's strength, even if he can brutally kill our reinforcements, as long as Kunqi intends to defend, there is no reason to throw them away."

"Could it be that Prison Qi and Beiliang reached some kind of agreement, the two sides cooperated, and Prison Qi let Bei Liang enter the planetary fortress."

"If this is really the case, then our reinforcements were ambushed, and we have nothing to do with Prison Qi..."

At the end, Wei Tu's eyes suddenly became extremely sinister.

He personally didn't mean to target Yuanqi, and now Yuanqi will be dismissed soon, and he is already a person of two worlds.

But if Prison Qi did something to sell Phobos, it is estimated that dismissal alone would not be enough, and he would have to pay an extra price.

"No, he doesn't have the guts. It should be that Beiliang used some means to block the signal of the planetary fortress and prevent them from sending us news." Edith shook her head directly.

She can keep Prison Qi in the position of consul for many years, so she naturally knows Prison Qi very well.

This person is relatively cowardly and may complain in private, but he dare not betray her no matter what.

Because she has something in her hand that Zhuang Qi cannot betray, she is still very confident in this.

"If the planetary fortress is blocked by Beiliang, then they probably have follow-up actions. It shouldn't be just to block our reinforcements. It's not necessary."

"Unless they have the idea of ​​doing something against the planetary fortress, or are already doing it..." Wei Tu didn't refute or question Edith anything, but pushed down following Edith's meaning.

I have to say that he is still very logical. Beiliang's behavior of shielding the planetary fortress is the most abnormal phenomenon.

The main intercepting reinforcements have nothing to do with the planetary fortress, and Junqi couldn't provide support in the first place.

If you can really beat the Phobos reinforcements, you don't need to block the planetary fortress.

If you can't beat it, blocking the planetary fortress won't change anything.

Why bother to do something meaningless?

There is a high probability that Beiliang doesn't want Prison Qi to spread more important news, such as the signal for help that the planetary fortress is under attack.

Use this to delay more time and not let the outside world know.

"Well, the possibility cannot be ruled out." Edith nodded.

In fact, she didn't think that Beiliang would dare to move the planetary fortress, because even if she came, she would have to send heavy troops and go all out.

It's just that something that she thought was impossible happened just now, which shook her heart.

"Master Star Master, should we tell other galaxies about Beiliang's interception of the Phobos law enforcement federation, and force them to send troops."

"There is also the matter of Beiliang's plan to move the planetary fortress. Let's talk about it together. This will definitely touch the bottom line of the Law Enforcement Federation as a whole." Wei Tu made a gesture of wiping his neck while talking.

After being messed up by Beiliang, their current situation is actually rather embarrassing.

Re-send troops, a month has passed.

Why don't you send troops, if Beiliang is really moving the planetary fortress, don't worry about it.

Therefore, they have to rely on external forces.

In the past, the consuls of various galaxies let the Tianhe system solve it on its own on the grounds that Beiliang did not really threaten the rights and interests of the Law Enforcer Federation.

what about now? Beiliang first attacked the Law Enforcer Federation fleet supported by the Phobos in the past, and then attacked the planetary fortress, almost riding on the Law Enforcer Federation's head.

Once the planetary fortress falls, it means that the Federation of Law Enforcers has disappeared from the Tianhe system, and Beiliang will inevitably replace it.

No matter which galaxy, there must be a Federation of Law Enforcers. This is a rule that has not changed since Kus named it.

Now if a group of gangsters occupy a galaxy, the Federation of Law Enforcers will become a joke of the entire Coos.

He didn't believe that those consuls couldn't see this, and could bear it without taking any action.

"No, we can't announce the complete annihilation of our reinforcements for the time being. On the contrary, all these news must be blocked, and there must be no leakage." Edith shook her head, her eyes were as cold as ice.

"This is..." Wei Tu couldn't help asking, somewhat incomprehensible.

This time, they can obviously use law enforcement officers from other galaxies to help them get rid of Beiliang, so why refuse?

"I suffered a great loss from a group of gangsters. I can't afford to lose this person, and neither can the Fire Guards."

"And we don't have direct evidence that Beiliang killed the reinforcements. These fragmented calls for help are not evidence."

"As for the fact that Beiliang is attacking the planetary fortress of the Tianhe system, we are only guessing, and we don't know what it actually is."

"Combining all the above, even if we say this at the Law Enforcer Federation meeting, those old things will still have questions and excuses."

"In the end, what we get will not be help, but ridicule." Edith leaned back on the chair as she spoke, her fingers tapping the handle of the chair rhythmically.

As a consul, she certainly understands the nature of other consuls.

People who can sit in this position have their own thinking and don't listen to what she says.

Generally, you have to see the most direct evidence, and first consider the interests of your own galaxy.

Although she has a good relationship with several of them, she has cooperated with some of them in recent years.

But favors will be consumed, and she secretly consumed a lot of favors in the war against the gray cave system.

Now that some conditions have not been met, it is not that simple to get support again.
