Chapter 2248 Unprepared!

There is a saying that "God of War" Lei Chenghu said very correctly.

After human beings mainly explore the three-dimensional universe in the form of "star sea jumping", and then conquer thousands of worlds and tens of thousands of resource planets, in any space war, "attack" will always be a hundred times easier than "defense" .

Lei Chenghu is not an enemy from outside. He is a senior member of the Imperial Army. He is a veteran of the battlefield who has been in the Imperial Army for two hundred years. He is more likely to get help from the mysterious forces from the imperial capital. , troop distribution and jump coordinates are well known.

He can choose his attack target as he likes, and suddenly appear in any star field.

But the defender is doomed to be unable to evenly disperse all troops to every world and every planet, so that they will only be defeated one by one, and they can only focus on it.

The attacker has almost unlimited attacking initiative, and what limits them is resources.

Yes, the first jump strike gives the attacker an infinite choice of targets, but that selection and the ensuing fight will also use up all the fuel and ammo they can count on.

If the first battle fails to achieve brilliant results and effective supplements are not obtained, it is bound to be unable to launch the second jump, and will be trapped alive on the burning battlefield.

This kind of offense and defense is somewhat like a duel between two gunmen holding flintlock guns.

The flintlock can only be fired once, and it is of course an advantage to fire first, but if one misses, it will almost cut off all hope of oneself.

Predicting the Thunder Fleet's first attack target has become the top priority of the "last shooter".

And when the eight words "respecting the emperor and rebelling against rebellion, and innovating with martial arts" spread throughout the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, including every pair of ears of the Senate, Lei Chenghu's goal was already clearly revealed.

That's right, for the resentful officers and soldiers on the front line, and for the remote and small and medium-sized world interest groups who have been wronged, what place is more suitable for making a scene than the imperial capital?

Theoretically, the "rebels" gathered hastily gathered in the third theater alone would not be able to capture the imperial capital.

But everything is possible in a war. Didn’t Wu Yingqi, the former border general of the Xinghai Republic, use a similar “beheading tactic” to go straight to the capital, control the parliament, slaughter the councilors, trigger a chain reaction, and finally usurp the entire country in one fell swoop?

The lessons learned by the "Founding Emperor" are so clear that the members of the Senate can't help but panic, for fear of repeating the same mistakes. Today's imperial senate has become the parliament of the republic thousands of years ago.

There are ghostly rumors in the streets and alleys and even in the depths of the underground fissures.

Many people know that the banners of the rebel army have been raised high all over Xingchenhai, and they are about to sweep across the imperial capital with a thunderous momentum. Even if they cannot conquer the imperial capital, they will smash the heart of Xingchenhaihai to pieces.

The more secret information from various channels can be said with certainty that the investigation of the "Blood Alliance Incident" some time ago has aroused strong dissatisfaction from all sides. Many people secretly fell to the rebels, that is, the "reformists" camp.

As long as Lei Chenghu's fleet appears on the outskirts of the Extreme Heaven Realm, these forces will rise up and cooperate with the Jinglei fleet to take down the imperial capital in one fell swoop!

The intelligence systems of the four major elector families are running crazily at ten times the speed. Looking for the source of these rumors, they really caught many sneaky guys and even cracked several secret strongholds of the reformers.

As a result of the severe torture of members of the reformist faction, it was news like a bolt from the blue.

The reformist faction led by Empress Li Linghai has been working hard in the imperial capital for decades, penetrating into every key node of the imperial capital, and the seemingly impenetrable defense system has already been riddled with holes.

These shocking information, like the poisoned dagger, have been stabbed into the throats of the veterans.

The elders have long been wary of Li Linghai's ambitions, but no matter how vigilant they are, they only confine her to the scope of "court struggle", but they never expected that she would use such crazy methods, outside the imperial capital, the empire's Pull up a powerful rebel army on the periphery.

Based on the comprehensive calculation of Queen Li Linghai's infiltration of the imperial capital and the powerful combat power of the Thunder Fleet, if the reformers really put all their eggs in one basket and go straight to the imperial capital regardless of the consequences, there is at least a 20% to 30% certainty that they will capture part of the ground area of ​​Tianji Star.

If the two sides really fought on the ground of the imperial capital and split the heart of the empire in two, then the millennium empire would be destroyed in one fell swoop.

The elders from the four major elector families may not have much loyalty and love for the word "empire", and even many ambitious guys have thought about it more than once in their hearts. If the empire really falls apart, the dozen or twenty they control This vast world is self-contained, and you can also be an emperor, wouldn't it be fun?

However, these Nascent Soul and God Transformation bosses all have extremely strong computing power and a high degree of rationality. They know that the five words "True Human Empire" are the "biggest agreement" of various intertwined and intricate interest groups. number".

The empire may be bad and annoying, but without the empire, hundreds of worlds will become a mess again and enter a new "Star Sea Warring States Era" that is more cruel than the past.

They are bound to kill each other and attack each other until everyone is exhausted, both sides are injured, and they are destroyed one by one by the Holy League.

Since none of the four major elector families is sure to swallow the entire star sea in one go, the empire has become an existence they have to defend.

And to defend the empire, there must be no accidents in the imperial capital. Any large-scale war in the imperial capital will inevitably trigger a series of unpredictable chain reactions. With the increase of the butterfly effect, it will evolve into a desperate storm that sweeps the entire empire!

"The rebels must not be allowed to enter the atmosphere of Tianji Star!"

"The ambitions of the Thunder Fleet and the reformers must be strangled in the icy sea of ​​stars outside the extreme sky!"

This is the unanimous voice of the elders.

In order to achieve the goal, the military machines of the four major elector families are running in the most violent manner.

A month ago, when the blood alliance incident happened, the four major elector families dispatched countless elite warships to the imperial capital to control the situation.

Today, at the cost of fuel and starships, they ordered more elites in the family territory to appear in the extreme sky world and the extreme star of the sky as quickly as possible to replace those guards who were most likely to be ambiguous with the reformers and whose loyalty was very suspicious. military.

In just twenty-four hours, more than fifteen fleets have jumped to the imperial capital one after another.

Even the imperial capital, which is full of space folds and stable wormholes, is famous for its dense star sea lanes, and the endless stream of starships, rarely welcomes so many super battleships coming at the same time, tearing up the ripples in the four-dimensional space. , reminding us of the undulating waves of the sea, which cannot be calm for a long time.

It is very ironic that no matter whether it is the "rebel army" or "rebel army" of the reformist faction, or the elite of the four major elector families, the reason for the rapid convening is the same defending the wise, invincible, and infinitely great emperor His Majesty!

With the reinforcement of 15 fleets, together with the more than ten fleets stationed in the imperial capital, the number of fleets scattered in the extreme sky and the star has reached nearly thirty.

The elite combat power of the entire human empire, except for the major battle zones on the front line, has all gathered in the imperial capital, quietly waiting for the appearance of the Thunder Fleet.

The rebels were bound to come, all the senators were sure of it.

Because there are no rebels in the rear base, the resources can maintain the daily consumption of the fleet for a month at most.

Every day that passes, the balance of victory tilts towards the four major elector families. In this confrontation of wills, the first ones to collapse are Li Linghai, Lei Chenghu and the so-called "reformists"!

However

...

Real Human Empire, the second quadrant, one of the four major elector families, the core territory of the Li family, the Grain Rain Realm, and the Rain God Star.

This is a planet with abundant rain and abundant resources, which is very suitable for growing all kinds of spiritual crops.

What's even more rare is that there are various rare crystals and metal veins in the ground of this planet, forming an extremely rare "industrial and agricultural complex planet", which is highly rated among all planetary sequences in the empire.

The Li family naturally built endless psionic farms and spar mines around the Yushen planet, and developed a splendid city that can accommodate tens of billions of people. The space shipyard can refine almost all levels of warships below heavy destroyers.

In a word, this is one of the most important core worlds of the Li family, and it even shoulders the important task of sending resources to several nearby Great Thousand Worlds.

This point can be seen from the three super-giant starry sky gates extending thousands of kilometers across the periphery of Yushen Planet's synchronous orbit.

These three star gates are like three giant lighthouses in an equilateral triangle. The light they radiate is enough to tear apart the four-dimensional space and spread throughout the entire empire in an instant, guiding the starships from all directions of the empire to jump in an endless stream. Rain star is coming.

Yushen Planet, No. 3 Star Gate.

In the past twenty-four hours, too many fleets from various worlds of the Li family jumped to the Grain Rain Realm, where they replenished fuel and ammunition before jumping to the Imperial Capital, and even the staff members of the three starry sky gates all overdrawn their lives and burned their souls , navigating desperately.

At this moment, the emergency transfer came to an end temporarily, and everyone's tense nerves relaxed a little. Many people fell asleep in the messy operation room. , no matter how much the boss scolded him, he couldn't lift his spirits. Occasionally, there were a few guys who relied on drugs to lift their spirits, but they were full of treacherous faces, hiding in the corner, whispering about the reformers who suddenly jumped out of the darkness, and A good show about to be staged in the imperial capital.

At this moment, a sharp alarm rang through the control center of the entire No. 3 star gate.
