Chapter 719 Blocking the Planet's Airspace

The generals below were very upset after being scolded by the interstellar noble.

However, they did not dare to show it in front of the interstellar noble, and said with a smile:

"This matter cannot be blamed entirely on us. Many of our troops surrendered to the enemy without even fighting.

What's more, it's okay for them to surrender, but they turned around and attacked our troops that did not surrender.

The offensive momentum was fierce, more fierce than all the acting.

It was as if they were not fighting the brother troops that had just betrayed, but fighting alien creatures."

They complained, but there was one thing they didn't understand.

That is, they were not at the scene at the time, and they could not feel the terrifying pressure brought by the huge fleet composed of nearly 2,000 large battleships and two Qin-class strategic cruisers.

Those surrendered troops did not want to attack the brother troops so fiercely, but they did not fight for their lives, and they were the ones who were beaten later.

After hearing the excuses of these generals, the interstellar noble became even more angry. He pounded the table with his fist and roared:

"What are the guards doing?!

Send the guards out to arrest the families of these defecting soldiers and execute them directly!"

The guards are directly under the interstellar nobles. They are also the military discipline inspectors and executioners of the Fertile Star Region in normal times.

They are the existence that ordinary private army personnel are afraid of.

The highest commanders of the private army were embarrassed when they heard this and replied:

"Your Majesty, this is probably difficult to do..."

"Why?"

The fat interstellar noble asked with a bad look on his face.

"Because most of the guards have already fled..."

"What?!

The guards also surrendered to the enemy?!"

The generals explained:

"It's not rebellion, but simply running away."

These guards are directly under the interstellar nobles. They usually act arrogantly in the Fertile Earth Star Region and show more loyalty to the interstellar nobles than anyone else.

But it's one thing to put a gun to someone's head and let them fight on the front line.

When it's their turn to fight on the front line, it's another matter.

As for the former, almost anyone can do it as long as they are not too timid to shoot people.

Now it's their turn to fight, and these people who are used to acting arrogantly run away faster than anyone else.

Although they are just running away, not surrendering to the Black Sand Star Region, how big a difference does it make at this time?

The fat interstellar noble was still standing up and questioning these generals a second ago.

The next second, after hearing that even his guards had fled, he sat down on the throne helplessly.

After a while, the interstellar nobles seemed to have finally figured out the dangerous situation they were facing, and hurriedly stood up and said to several generals in panic:

"What are we waiting for?

Hurry up and leave this planet and go to a safe place!!"

These generals did not rebel or run away because they were so loyal to the interstellar nobles.

Rather, they were in high positions and had vested interests in the Star Rock Star Region.

If they ran away or rebelled, they might not be able to retain so many interests.

Therefore, until the last moment, they still had some lucky ideas.

At this time, after hearing the interstellar nobles personally say that they would leave the ruling main planet first and go to a safer position in the starry sky, they were also happy in their hearts.

They had been waiting for this sentence for a long time.

Several generals said happily:

"Okay, Your Majesty, the spaceship has been prepared.

We will leave this planet first, and the reinforcements sent by the United Government will arrive in more than a day.

By then, we will definitely make the people of the Black Sand Star Region and the Star Rock Star Region pay the price and compensate us several times!"

The king nodded in agreement, not thinking at all why his generals had already prepared the escape spaceship.

Just when they were about to leave the palace, the alarm of the defense system of the entire ruling star suddenly sounded.

The palace even entered the emergency alert mode, various defensive machine guns popped out, and defensive armor walls fell down, sealing everyone in the palace.

Several generals were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly called up the projection screen to check the scene outside the palace.

The sky of the planet was densely filled with large battleships and Qin-class strategic cruisers. Thousands of warships descended on the planet's airspace and were exchanging fire with the ground defense system, covering the sky and the sun.

Several generals looked extremely ugly, and said in an unbelievable tone:

"How could this happen?!

Isn't the enemy fleet still fighting with the troops of the last star chain defense line?

How could it appear in our airspace!!!"

They were not in a hurry before because they knew that the troops of the last star chain defense line were still fighting with the enemy.

But they misjudged one thing.

That is, it was not the main fleet of the Aocheng Group that was fighting with the troops of the last star chain defense line.

It was the fleet of the original Fertile Earth Star Region that surrendered to them.

In order to prevent the interstellar nobles from escaping, Liu Cheng and others only left the surrendered troops of the Fertile Earth Star Region to fight the enemy.

The main fleet turned around and bypassed the star region defended by the enemy, and headed straight for the ruling star of the Fertile Earth Star Region.

When the generals of the surrendered troops in the Fertile Star Region first received this news, their faces were very ugly.

However, after they heard clearly that their mission was to delay the garrison fleet, not to defeat the enemy, they readily agreed.

Delay and annihilation seem to be similar, both require direct combat.

However, the combat intensity of the two is much different.

If the enemy is completely annihilated, I am afraid that I will have to kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 of my own.

And if the enemy is delayed, let alone the extra 200, I am afraid that I will not even lose 20.

So they kept a distance from the starry sky, and the old man fired artillery at the garrison troops like water.

The garrison fleet was naturally happy when they saw the main fleet of the Aocheng Group leave.

There is no need to fight the enemy's main fleet head-on, which means there is no risk of 100% annihilation.

They will not take the initiative to attack and delay the leaving main fleet of the Aocheng Group.

Of course, they will not report the matter to their superiors at the risk of being forced or punished by their superiors.

To put it bluntly, the people in the Fertile Star Region were demoralized, and no one would fight to the death.

At first, the garrison fleet would fight back with all its might when faced with the attack of the surrender fleet.

However, after a short battle, it was discovered that the enemy's naval guns were not very strong.

And like in the usual military exercises, they did not really hit their warships, and they also understood the other party's intentions.

It can only be said that the garrison fleet and the surrender fleet were worthy of being the brother forces of the private army of the Fertile Star Region before, and both sides immediately understood each other's intentions.

The two forces maintained a certain safe distance, occasionally firing a few blank bullets near the starry sky where the other party's warships were located, and kept pretending.

For a while, no one was determined to kill the other, but instead fought a feeling of mutual respect.
