Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1467: Chapter 832: _2

Moreover, Tai Shichen’s behavior and dealings with various mortal powers were quite skillful.

He was not like the typical image of an Interstellar Warrior, especially compared to the Blood Shark who disregarded mortals—they were complete opposites.

Just like the Genetic Seeds of the Death Angel, which seem to inherently lead one to have little secrets and form cliques, the Spear of the Dragon King, as a sub-group of the Giant Dragon Legion, was also quite friendly towards mortals, much like their parent group and sibling group.

Tai Shichen’s attitude towards these numerous mortal powers was not harsh. After the initial somewhat warning-like meeting concluded, Tai Shichen privately met and talked with many people. His gentle demeanor calmed many anxious parties.

His gentleness was significant, effectively binding numerous forces.

The first batch of troops and resources quickly arrived.

During this process, Tai Shichen and the Vanguard Army under his leadership were not idle. He personally led the warriors of the Battle Group and the elite of the Alliance in a successful initial counterattack, marking a great start.

This victory instantly reduced the crisis at the Steel Flame Furnace.

Tai Shichen’s Vanguard Army directly pierced through the Beastman army that spilled over into the Wangyue Star Domain, disturbing dozens of worlds, and reclaimed Bright Eyes Star, where the seventh exit was located.

This was a node planet, linked between the Wangyue Star Domain and the Omegilia Star Realm, closer to Wangyue. It was once also a Fortress World, but now it was a ruin. The Beastmen almost dismantled the human fortress within, leaving only a few scattered human troops struggling to survive.

Tai Shichen’s arrival rescued them, and he, along with the elite of the Vanguard Army, firmly nailed themselves to Bright Eyes Star like a nail.

Their counter-attack naturally drew nearby Green Skins returning to encircle. Meanwhile, Beastman troops spreading from Omegilia also targeted Bright Eyes Star as their first objective.

But this situation was exactly what Tai Shichen anticipated.

Bring all the pressure from various parties, I’ll take it all.

By blocking the entrance of Beastman infiltration into the Wangyue Star Domain and attracting the Beastman already within the domain to come and encircle, the pressure in other areas naturally reduced significantly.

On one hand, it relieved the pressure on planets invaded by Green Skins, on the other, it created opportunities for the ’Wangyue Legion’ to annihilate those Beastmen and reclaim lost territories.

The so-called ’Wangyue Legion’ was naturally the local forces of the Wangyue Star Domain, assembled into a local military force.

Tai Shichen indeed put himself in this situation and fully trusted these local forces to fight well and not disgrace their mission.

However, trust was trust, he was not leaving it up to the local Wangyue people to fight alone. That would be equivalent to placing his Battle Group, the Vanguard Army, and the entire Forward Cosmic Domain’s situation in the hands of a group not really worth trusting.

The risks were too high.

The main combat power of the Wangyue Legion was indeed formed by local forces, but Tai Shichen left his fourth company commander, Ricardo Lazio, to serve as the temporary commander of this legion. Accompanying him were his entire third company, along with over two hundred warriors remnants from two previously defeated Battle Groups against the Beastman.

These Interstellar Warriors were almost considered part of the Steel Flame Furnace’s own troops, but Interstellar Warriors are never easy to subdue. With the arrival of the Alliance, and the full deployment of the Spear of the Dragon King, they naturally accepted the alliance.

Especially after in-depth discussions with Ricardo, the remnants of these two Battle Groups understood the Alliance’s strategy towards various groups, further raising hopes to revive their Battle Groups—if relying solely on themselves, the two groups only had about a hundred people each, nearly on the brink of total annihilation.

The only possible way to quickly restore them might be the Alliance.

Despite finding it hard to believe themselves, the Alliance had many similar cases for reference, making it difficult not to trust.

Overall, what they needed to do now was to coordinate well with Ricardo, captain of the Dragon King’s Spear third company, and personally engage in eliminating the invading Beastman troops.

This military operation lasted two months, and it could be basically declared that humanity achieved an initial victory.

The most intense battlefield, of course, was Bright Eyes Star. During these two months, the flames of war over this planet never ceased. The Alliance Vanguard Army here, directly confronting the vast numbers of Green Skins, defeated them.

Especially as the actions to clean up Green Skins in the rear achieved results, the pressure on Bright Eyes Star reduced significantly.

Though Beastman troops continually emerged from another direction, at least Bright Eyes Star no longer suffered multi-front attacks, and logistical fleet transportation generally resumed. The engineering team of Steel Flame Furnace reached this world, working diligently to repair and rebuild the planet’s defense system.

The main forces of the Wangyue Legion also gradually stationed at Bright Eyes Star, replacing the Alliance Army that fought bitterly for two months.

Tai Shichen’s so-called ’Unbreakable Defense Line’ completed the first step, which was also the most difficult step.

The Wangyue Star Domain was the most affected by the insect beast war spilling over, with the seventh exit bearing the most pressure. Now, the seventh exit could be preliminarily declared blocked, solving the biggest challenge first, leaving the rest much easier to handle.

Thus, with Ricardo leading the Wangyue Legion, Tai Shichen left them two battalions responsible for the entire Wangyue Star Domain’s defense. Ricardo would continue following the successful experience from closing the seventh exit to successively address the problems at the eighth and ninth exits.

The problem shouldn’t be large; the eighth and ninth warfare conditions were far less brutal than the seventh exit. The Beastman numbers weren’t many, with only three to five worlds each suffering disturbances, blocking them wasn’t difficult.

Meanwhile, Ricardo himself led the large portion of the Vanguard Army to the neighboring Yanjiu Star Domain.

In the Yanjiu Star Domain, there were two exits connecting to Omegilia, numbered five and six.

After resolving the Yanjiu Star Domain, Tai Shichen still had three star domains to visit.

Surrounding Omegilia were five star domains that Tai Shichen had to visit each once.

Including Omegilia Star Realm itself, these six star domains were basically the majority of the Forward Cosmic Domain’s land. This domain only consisted of nine star domains.

His time was very tight and the tasks were quite significant.

In fact, it could essentially be considered that by solving Omegilia’s insect beast issues, the Alliance completed the recovery of almost the entire Forward Cosmic Domain.

According to Tai Shichen’s policies, they aimed to form a unified front of these five star domains. Resolving the insect beast war simultaneously indicated the Alliance completed recapturing this unified front, and by then, it was unlikely they could detach from the Dark Side Control Committee system.

As for the remaining three star domains of this domain, they were no longer significant obstacles.

Winning the insect beast war would naturally grant the Expeditionary Force immense legitimacy, and reclaiming the remaining three star domains would likely not require any warfare, achievable through mere notification.

Even without winning. As long as the Expeditionary Force demonstrated a determination to address the major issue of Omegilia, they would acquire support throughout this domain during the war.

At that time, the Expeditionary Force’s duty would be to deploy Thunder Torch Towers across various worlds, then consolidate the strength of these worlds, ensuring they would become a part of the Dark Side Control Committee, and potentially even a member of the Alliance.

As long as the Alliance can win the insect beast war.
