Chapter 640, How Stupid

Lefo Star Region.

The main fleets on the northern front are gathering.

Marshal Leroy, the commander-in-chief of the theater, is holding an important military meeting here.

The northern battlefield has made great and decisive progress.

At least, Leroy reported to Holy Terra.

He is not lying.

From the beginning, the northern battlefield has not received much attention, just a little better than the southern front. At the beginning of the Iron Armor Rebellion, the Empire actually counted on the Phoenix Regiment on the western front. Later, the Phoenix Regiment collapsed, and Holy Terra made efforts to form a large army, and even sent out the bottom-line regiment-Ortopis, together with the Solar Fleet and the Solar Auxiliary Army, to form a large army to reconstruct the western front army.

In contrast, the northern front received less support.

At the beginning, the northern front, like Gu Hang on the southern front, was just a local cosmic domain, forming local troops.

Unlike the southern front, the invasion of the Devouring Star cosmic domain by the Iron Armor was much more fierce than their attack on the Eastern cosmic domain. On the one hand, the Devouring Universe mobilized its own troops and requested support from several warbands operating in the Devouring Universe. On the other hand, it also quickly sought help from outside.

Both the Space Marines and the Bats, the two founding warbands, accepted the call.

Of course, they all had their own reasons for accepting the call. The Bats were their home planet, on Devouring. The Infinite Warband was because the one who rebelled was their own child, and it was not too far away.

But only one company came from each warband.

There were reasons for not many. The founding warbands had a lot of work to do and were very busy. They were often just a few dozen or a hundred, scattered throughout the universe, with their own different tasks. It was already good to be able to draw out a full company. Moreover, the equipment level and strength level of the founding warbands were top-notch.

But after all, the number of founding warbands was too small, and even the several warbands in the Devouring Universe had their own threats to face.

To be honest, how could the Space Marines raised by the Empire be raised in vain? They all have work to do. The Empire's call for help, the warband responding to requests for help from all over the place, and the warband's power expanding to a star field, then naturally they have to protect the safety of a star field. Rebellion, aliens, chaos corruption... all kinds of work have to be done.

Even, many warbands were directly placed by the Empire in places where the threat was particularly great, and the warbands were directly asked to guard.

Unless their own home planet was directly threatened by a fatal threat, otherwise, it would be difficult for the warband to concentrate all its forces to do one thing.

Oh, Phoenix, Fury, New World Torch, Blood Shark... These warbands are different.

They have no other work to do, only the work of the Alliance.

It is for this reason that the number of space warriors gathered on the northern line at the beginning was only over a thousand. With such a force, it can only be regarded as barely able to stabilize the situation in the Devouring Star Universe, and can only make the situation of retreating step by step less severe.

Counterattack is even more impossible.

Until the arrival of the Black Crusaders.

Leroy is the marshal of the Black Crusaders' Third Fleet. He not only has a battle barge and two battlecruisers as the main force, but also a thousand Space Marines.

Well... when it comes to the topic of "over-birth", it's hard to say which one is more over-birth, the Iron Armor or the Black Crusaders. The Black Crusaders have eight expeditionary fleets, each with a thousand Space Marines. It's hard to say how many "reserve recruits" they have prepared secretly. Anyway, when the Black Crusaders lose troops, they can quickly make up for it.

Their over-birth is legal.

The Holy Scripture also stipulates that during the expedition, the personnel limit can be exceeded to a certain extent.

The Black Cross is using this law to make their behavior legal.

As for why other war groups can't do this... first see if the name of their own war group is Black Cross.

In addition, the Black Cross people do work. Without a mother planet, the eight fleets are fighting on the front lines of various battlefields all over the empire, and they actively respond to the war calls of various empires, with almost no bad records.

Strong, few conflicts of interest, active work, and background... indeed, no one bothered them.

The arrival of the 1,000 people in the Fourth Fleet directly stabilized the Devouring Star Region, and they could even counterattack.

Until they entered the Lefo Star Region, which was only one step away from the Princess Star Region. Then, they encountered a whole hive fleet and were firmly blocked outside.

Until they received reinforcements.

The Anti-foreign Inquisition was very interested in the war here and the strategy of the Void Zerg to cooperate with Iron Armor. They sent the Inquisitor and the Silver Watch Space Marines, which were formed by elites from various war groups and were specially used to fight against alien enemies, to participate in the war.

Plus a large number of stormtroopers, they constituted the support provided by the Anti-foreign Order.

Although there are not many Space Marines, the three hundred Silver Watch are all combat experts against the Void Zerg; the hundreds of thousands of stormtroopers brought by the Inquisitors are also a force that cannot be underestimated.

This also allowed the war on the northern front to begin to move forward with difficulty.

After the collapse of Phoenix on the western front, Holy Terra also panicked. They not only carried out fierce political struggles internally, but also fired Prime Minister Ojuren, and Gallardo stepped up to the front, and quickly reorganized the main force on the western front. At the same time, they also looked for people from all sides to reinforce the battlefield.

Gu Hang obtained a considerable amount of strategic material support on the southern front, which happened under this background.

Of course, there were also reinforcements on the northern front.

Let’s not talk about the various troops, the most important one is the Black Crusaders.

They have another expeditionary fleet.

The Black Cross Seventh Fleet joined the battle sequence, and at the same time, the number of active space warriors on the northern line directly increased to nearly 4,000, and the fleet was powerful.

The Marshal of the Third Fleet of the Black Crusaders, Mathieu Leroy, as the commander-in-chief of the northern line, led his legion with high spirits, changing the previous difficult advancement. It was not as powerful as a bamboo, but at least it was progressing rapidly.

It is not easy to completely eradicate the Zerg.

They won a relatively critical battle, using a planet as a battlefield and turning it into a meat grinder, attracting billions of Zergs and the main force of the Hive Fleet.

Then, they won and destroyed the main force of the Hive Fleet, and only a small part escaped; billions of Zergs on the ground were reduced to ashes under a Burning Sky Torpedo.

Although there are still Zerg shadows everywhere in the Lefo Star Region, Leroy no longer wants to continue to drag his army into this quagmire.

The Hive Fleet can no longer threaten the main force of the Northern Front Army, so shouldn't they take this opportunity to directly attack the Princess Star Region?

Before the trip, he needs to hold a military meeting to confirm the thoughts of the entire legion.

It is true that he is the commander-in-chief, but the so-called Northern Front Army is so complicated that it is not true that everything can be done at his command.

The first topic of the meeting was not their own future strategic and tactical direction, but a discussion of the distant Southern Front battlefield and a reply sent to him by Gu Hang.

"That Gu Hang refused to cooperate with us from the South Front to enter the Princess Star Region together?"

"How stupid."
