There must be something fishy going on.
Zhao Chen squinted.
Charlotte didn't say anything more.
The two seemed to be waiting for something.
At this moment, in addition to the two Black God Legion fleets, the number of reinforcing interstellar warships is still increasing, and has now exceeded 600,000.
At this moment, an interstellar fleet with completely different starship paint schemes made its appearance!
The ship's hull is entirely painted black, with no other colors except for some classic-style patterns.
They were like silent steel warriors.
What is the only special feature of this?
That would be the special fleet emblem on the hull of the interstellar warship, a pattern of black armor.
Among the civilizations that have devoured civilizations, only one well-known fleet has adopted this special fleet paint scheme.
That is the Black God Monarch Legion, also known as the Black God Personal Guard Fleet.
This is because it is a legion fleet directly under the control of the Black God King.
It is also the strongest legion fleet in the entire Devouring Civilization.
It possesses a small number of interstellar warships, only 30,000.
Compared to the Troll King's Legion fleet and the Drought Demon King's Legion fleet mentioned earlier.
Thirty thousand interstellar warships is really not a large number.
While these 30,000 interstellar warships may not seem numerous, their quality is terrifying.
They used only T6-class or higher interstellar warships.
However, in reality, it actually includes a large number of near-T6 level interstellar warships, and there is even a new fleet rating term in this fleet.
That is a super T6-class interstellar warship. As the name suggests, it is stronger than a regular T6-class interstellar warship, but still not as good as a near T7-class interstellar warship.
In other words, it means continuously upgrading T6-level technological weapons, but still without using any T7-level technological technology.
This is a super T6-class interstellar warship.
With these near-T6, T6, and super-T6 level interstellar warships in place, the Black God Army, which claims to have 30,000 T6 level interstellar warships, was formed!
Thirty thousand T6-class interstellar warships—just hearing that name is enough to scare away many people.
After all, even the Holy Elf Empire didn't have such a large fleet of 30,000 T6-class interstellar warships.
Faced with any interstellar civilization, this single force of 30,000 Black God ships would be enough to sweep away the legions and fleets of those interstellar civilizations.
The existence of this Black God Army also solidified the Black God King's position among the previous three kings.
There are even rumors that the Drought Demon King and the Troll King secretly conducted multiple simulated exercises against the Black God Army. Even if the combined fleets of the two kings' legions were used against the Black God Army, they would not be able to win a single battle.
It is easy to imagine the powerful position of the Black God Army.
The Dragon Star Empire was naturally not unprepared for the existence of the Black God Army.
Even before this military operation, the military staff of the Dragon Star Empire had already conducted multiple assessments of the Black God Army's combat capabilities.
They relied on intelligence provided by the Holy Elf Empire, as well as intelligence they had gathered themselves.
The final result is as follows.
The 30,000 Black God Fleet ships represent the highest-quality enemy fleet that the Dragon Legion has faced to date.
If we are using a standard JF-17 fleet.
In equal numbers, the interstellar legion fleet within the Dragon Legion fleet group is no match for this Black God Army.
There is another crucial reason for this.
That was the flagship of the Black God Army, the ship of the Black God King.
One of the three near-T7 level interstellar warships that devoured the civilization.
Black God!
Full name.
A near-T7 Black God-class heavy interstellar battleship.
As for which of the three near-T7 class interstellar warships that devoured civilizations was stronger or weaker, no one could probably give a definitive answer.
This is because these three near-T7 level interstellar warships have different battlefield roles.
But if you were to ask which interstellar warship it least wants to encounter as an enemy.
That is undoubtedly the Black God.
Because it's a battleship, that means that once you're its opponent and it locks onto you, unless you're also a near-T7 level starship, your fate is sealed.
Apart from near-T7 level interstellar warships, no interstellar warship could withstand a single blow from the Black God.
Therefore, facing a lineup of three thousand T6-class interstellar warships, plus a near-T7-class interstellar warship.
The conventional JF-17 fleet is no match for them.
The only true rivals to it are the elite fleets, which are also heavily equipped with T6-level weapons.
For example, Charlotte's Reverse Scale Ace Fleet and Marshal Akame's Blizzard Ace Fleet.
These two elite fleet groups also happen to possess one of their superflags.
Although, when both sides are of equal numbers, the JF-17's elite fleet has a significant advantage.
However, how they will perform on the battlefield remains unknown.
After all, such things can only be truly understood through actual combat on the battlefield; any predictions or simulations are merely empty talk.
"I never expected the Black God King to come in person." Charlotte was also surprised that the Black God King would appear on this battlefield.
This was something she hadn't anticipated.
"This... the current situation is not good for us."
The enemy had previously dispatched 600,000 interstellar warships, along with two Black God Legion fleets and the Black God Royal Guard fleet!
"Once these interstellar fleets join the battle, the threat they pose to us will undoubtedly be enormous," Lilith said with some concern.
Once these civilization-devouring interstellar fleets join the battlefield, they will undoubtedly change the current situation.
Especially the Black God's personal guard fleet and the Black God starship on the other side.
Zhao Chen said in a deep voice, "In the current situation, the Black God King has really revealed all his trump cards."
Now it's up to us to see how we respond.
We must send more reinforcements, otherwise we will not be able to maintain our previous advantage on the battlefield.
If we subsequently run out of strategic resources, losing our advantage will make our situation even worse.
Lilith pulled up a string of data and said, "The latest battlefield data."
If the enemy does not subsequently send additional fleets to the battlefield.
Currently, the enemy has 2.5 million interstellar warships on the entire battlefield.
We currently have over 500,000 interstellar warships deployed in the battle.
If we only look at the comparison of the number of interstellar warships, we may still have the advantage, since the ratio is still five to one.
However, there has been a significant change in the combat quality of interstellar warships.
First, there are the newly added 600,000 interstellar warships, and their peak condition is something we cannot ignore.
There are also two Black God Legion fleets, which are elite legion fleets, although each only has 30,000 interstellar warships.
However, when deployed to any local battlefield, we must respond promptly, otherwise a very bad situation may arise.
What remains are the 30,000 starships of the Black God's personal guard fleet, and the Black God starship, which is almost a T7 class.
We cannot ignore this near-T7 level interstellar warship.
Currently, there are interstellar warships capable of rivaling the Black God.
We only have a few of our main combat super flagships, and quasi-T7 Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts.
The latter is in poor combat condition. If we send it out, unless we have a numerical advantage, our Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts may be destroyed by the enemy.
As for dealing with the Black God's personal guard fleet, the combat simulation system suggests that an elite fleet group should be dispatched specifically to handle it.
This deployment will minimize our losses.
But there's another point we can't ignore: within ten hours, two million enemy interstellar warships will be deployed to the battlefield. Lilith explained this battlefield information one by one.
Perhaps at this moment, judging solely from the situation, the balance is slightly higher on the side of the JF-17 Dragon Fleet.
But soon, as the next phase of the war begins, the balance of power on the battlefield will tilt rapidly toward the side that devours the civilization.
When the reinforcements of those two million interstellar warships arrive on the battlefield, the initiative on the battlefield will change directly.
Grand Marshal Charlotte and Emperor Zhao Chen were naturally well aware of this situation.
Zhao Chen squinted at the interstellar war sand table in front of him: "What if we choose to evacuate now?"
The Black God King on the other side will certainly not let us go easily.
At that time, we will have to pay an extremely high price.
Lilith has already entered some information into the Dragon Emperor's war system and obtained the results of the war simulation.
Lilith said with a serious expression, "Based on the simulation results, if we choose to withdraw our troops now..."
We can retreat smoothly, but of the more than 500,000 interstellar warships we have here, 200,000 will perish here.
And this will include at least two Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts!
Zhao Chen's expression turned serious, and he said, "In other words, we are now essentially being forced onto the dueling stage."
"Either fight the enemy to the death here, or you lose an arm or two and run away like a dog."
Lilith didn't say anything, but that was the clear meaning.
Charlotte then spoke up, saying, "Danger and opportunity go hand in hand; this seems to be very dangerous."
But this is also our opportunity.
The enemy has mobilized a large number of its fleets to our side.
That means other areas will be vulnerable, and our previously formulated battle plan can now be executed.
Upon hearing Charlotte mention the battle plan, Zhao Chen nodded silently; he was also familiar with that plan.
However, the preconditions for executing that operation plan were somewhat stringent, so it wasn't guaranteed that it would be carried out.
Now that such a condition has been set, it's impossible to miss it.
Zhao Chen said seriously, "That battle plan can be executed."
But at the same time, our situation also needs to be addressed.
Given the current situation, we cannot afford to be dragged into a war of attrition by the enemy, as our war reserves cannot sustain us through the costs of the upcoming battles.
By then, the combat capability of our starship will continue to decline, and its fighting strength will be far inferior to what it is now.
At that time, the enemy will surely try every means to eliminate us.
The losses we incur could then far outweigh the advantages we gained beforehand.
After a moment of silence, Charlotte said with a glint in her eyes, "What you said is indeed the case."
But with such a great opportunity before us, we must seize it.
The operational plan had one more condition: we had to tie down the enemy for at least ten hours.
"What?
"Are we really going to be stuck here fighting the enemy for another ten hours?" Lilith was greatly surprised.
She now wished she could send all the Xiaolong interstellar warships back to the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire, but Charlotte actually wanted them to stay here for another ten hours.
You know, a lot can change here in ten hours.
Charlotte took a deep breath and looked at Zhao Chen, saying, "Your Majesty, the opportunity is right here."
I don't deny that we will be taking some risks.
But compared to what we can gain, this part of the risk is negligible.
Now, please make your decision!
Although Charlotte was the Grand Marshal, and although the Emperor of the Dragons granted her the highest battlefield command authority.
Logically speaking, even if Charlotte were to make a combat deployment right now, it wouldn't be a big deal.
But since Emperor Xiaolong was present, she had to ask Zhao Chen for his opinion.
Zhao Chen took a deep breath and adjusted his emotional state. He looked at the interstellar war sand table and said in a low voice, "Given the current situation..."
The Black God King on the other side will definitely not let us retreat easily.
Since that's the case, let's go and create something big.
Before leaving, let's present this great gift to the Black God King.
So that even after we leave, the king will still worry about us.
Charlotte, I agree to all your upcoming battle plans.
You have the right to use all the cards we have in our hand.
If we're going to do something big, let's do something big.
Even if this isn't our Xiaolong Interstellar Empire's universe, our Xiaolong Interstellar Legion fleet fears nothing, no matter where it is.
Grand Marshal Charlotte immediately stood up straight, her eyes shining brightly, and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, we guarantee to give you a satisfactory answer."
After saying that, Grand Marshal Charlotte began to make arrangements.
Grand Marshal Charlotte has a lot to prepare for this final curtain call.
Lilith, the secretary standing to the side, helplessly covered her face. In fact, this was before the matter was even brought up.
Lilith probably had this idea; what she said before didn't actually mean she opposed the plan.
However, at any given stage, someone always needs to step forward and pour cold water on everyone's enthusiasm, allowing them to calmly understand the current advantages and disadvantages.
In this situation, we can then make the next decision.
She knew that after years of working together, Charlotte and Zhao Chen had developed similar personalities in battlefield command.
Naturally, people will agree on these things at such times.
"I knew it wouldn't end so simply."
"Let me see if we can provide more logistical support." Lilith, feeling helpless, tried her best to offer Zhao Chen and Charlotte as much help as possible within her job responsibilities.
Zhao Chen watched Lilith busily working, and Charlotte constantly issuing commands on the interstellar war sandbox via the video window.
At this moment, Zhao Chen felt incredibly at ease.
Although the upcoming battle plan is very risky, with them fighting alongside him, Zhao Chen always feels very secure.
Because as long as they are there, Zhao Chen has nothing to worry about.
Zhao Chen now trusts them as much as he trusts himself.
Black God Bridge
The Black God King sat on his throne, looking at the interstellar war sandbox before him, and then at the battle scene on the ground.
His aura was extremely hostile, even though he already knew from the battlefield reports that the situation of the friendly fleet fighting on the battlefield was not optimistic.
But when you actually see the two fleets fighting on the battlefield...
He felt that the words and text in those reports looked much better.
Because the actual situation is much worse.
Whether on the main battlefield or in other localized battlefields, the situation is extremely dire.
The vast majority of the time, the JF-17 fleet held an absolute advantage.
However, in a very small number of cases, it appears that the two fleets are in a stalemate.
However, upon closer observation, it becomes clear that during the battle, they were completely led by the nose by the opposing Falcon Legion fleet.
The pace of the battlefield is entirely under the control of the enemy.
Although they had a numerical advantage in starships on any battlefield, they were no match for the opposing Dragon Legion fleet.
That would be like a child facing an adult.
The opposing JF-17 fleet was completely wiping them out.
The opposing JF-17 interstellar warships had a very meticulous combat deployment, with every step executed flawlessly, as observed on the interstellar war sandbox.
The battles between those Falcon Dragon interstellar warships were like a magnificent waltz.
In contrast, the interstellar fleet of the Devouring Civilization was like a bunch of amateur dancers who had only been learning for a few days.
The operational deployment, the combat process, and the engagement were all a complete mess.
Even the situation of those Black God Commander's fleets is not optimistic.
This situation was unexpected even by Commander Black God, who had come here with him.
"This...this...how could it have turned out like this?" The Fifth Commander of the Black God muttered in disbelief.
Because all three of them had video calls enabled, they could all hear each other's words.
The fourth commander of the Black God also said in disbelief: "When we were chasing those Dragon-type interstellar warships on the battlefield near the Troll King's side..."
I know that the JF-17 series interstellar warships are very powerful.
However, this is not so ridiculously strong.
Here lies the army fleet of the Drought Demon King, as well as our three Black God Commander fleets.
"How could... how could it have gotten like this?"
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they probably wouldn't have believed that the battlefield before them was fought by their comrades, the Black God Commander's fleet.
That's why they only said they couldn't believe it, without saying anything sarcastic.
Because they knew very well that although their five Black God Commander Legion fleets might have varying strengths, the difference was not significant.
To mock the Black God Commander's fleet at this moment would be tantamount to mocking oneself.
Moreover, even the strongest of the five Black God Commander Legion fleets, the Black God First Commander Legion Fleet, is currently struggling on the battlefield.
They were too embarrassed to make fun of anything.
The Black God King did not speak, but the pressure around him was extremely low.
At this point, video windows opened one after another.
On the other side were the high-ranking commanders of the Devouring Civilization, who were currently engaged in this battle.
Commander of the Black God First Legion Fleet, Commander of the Black God Second Legion Fleet, Commander of the Black God Third Legion Fleet.
In addition, the Drought Demon King was also present.
However, the expression on the face of the drought demon king was clearly not good. His originally withered cheeks now showed a look of anger that was rarely seen.
"Is this all you've given me?" the Black God King finally spoke up, "Do I really need to come all this way to clean up your mess?"
The three Black God commanders knelt down on one knee on the other end of the video window.
"This subordinate is guilty of poor command on the battlefield."
Please punish me, sir!
Although the three Black God commanders have not achieved good results at present, as confidants of the Black God King, they still possess good combat skills.
They won't make any excuses; since things have already escalated to this point, they'll obediently apologize.
The Drought Demon King protested, saying, "This is not our fault."
The opposing JF-17 fleet was too cunning.
They deliberately concealed the Golden Scarab-class Heavy Starship, a near-T7 level interstellar warship.
They only brought it out at this moment, catching us completely off guard.
Who would have thought that such a powerful interstellar empire could mass-produce a near-T7 level interstellar warship?
Without any intelligence alert, we were completely unprepared.
If only we had known earlier that the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire possessed this interstellar warship.
"The battlefield situation would never be like this!" the Drought Demon King declared confidently.
But in a way, his words were actually an excuse for his failure.
Because the drought demon king suffered a terrible defeat this time.
His fleet was reduced to less than one-tenth of its original size, and his Drought Demon King-class heavy strategic interplanetary destroyers were almost at the point of needing to be sent back to the factory for major repairs!
