Chapter 529: Backstab by the Slave Legion
The slave army used the worst weapons, ate ordinary food, lived in crowded houses, and shed blood and sweat for civilization.
In the end, what they got in return was the abandonment of civilization. If the people of the second-level army knew this cruel fact, it was hard to guarantee that they would not rebel directly under the instigation of someone with ulterior motives. Once so many soldiers rebelled, the damage to civilization would undoubtedly be huge.
In order to nip this dangerous trend in the bud, Gladstone had to resort to this bad strategy.
In fact, all senior personnel knew that this war was different from previous wars.
It was not aimed at destroying the enemy, but at destroying our army.
So many things could not keep up with the needs of the front line, causing the front line to suffer heavy losses repeatedly.
It seemed as if the nomadic civilization was in crisis, but in fact the real elites were stationed on the last line of defense to prevent the enemy from taking this opportunity to break through and enter the civilization to cause damage.
At the same time, these elites received top-secret communications before departure, not only to guard against this unknown enemy, but also the second-level troops stationed in front of them!
But sometimes, the development of things is very dramatic.
There is no wall in the world that is impenetrable. A soldier may not understand what the top leaders think.
But not all the people in the second-level legion are stupid.
The legion commanders of all legions are of course from the native tribes of the nomadic civilization. They are of course infinitely loyal to civilization.
And they think the same as those high-level leaders. They don’t regard the soldiers of the second-level legion as their comrades at all, but just treat them as consumables.
But a legion cannot have only one legion commander. There are more than 20 million cadres above the middle level. These more than 20 million people are all promoted from the bottom soldiers of the second-level legion.
Most of them are of course very shallow, but some of them have received excellent education.
After all, not all people are self-degrading. Some people still think about their own civilization in this situation.
So the language in the slave legion is strange, and there are riots from time to time.
This is also one of the reasons why the nomadic civilization only sends one legion commander. Before, they had all the cadres above the middle level in their hands.
However, with the unrest again and again, there were constant assassinations of middle-level and above cadres in the second-level legion, so they just let it go.
As long as the second-level legion can achieve its goal, they can do whatever they want, and of course rebellion is not within their scope.
"Brother! The situation on the battlefield is becoming more and more weird."
The nomadic civilization is stationed in the second-level legion in the north, and a huge steel building is also in the middle of the legion. This is the joint command post of the two legions.
There are many command posts like this.
After all, a legion is too small in the main universe battlefield. If it stays alone in one place, the high-level of the legion can easily be beheaded by the enemy.
Everyone is used to huddling together for warmth.
At this time, in the deputy legion commander's liaison room on the second floor of the high-rise building, the deputy legion commanders of the two legions are secretly plotting something here.
The two are brothers.
They can both reach the highest position of the second-level legion, which can be regarded as a very powerful existence.
And they are the ones who saw the clues from this action.
"Yes! This is the first war where logistics cannot keep up with the needs of the battlefield!"
The strong man called the elder brother was holding the railing in front of the window with his right hand, staring at the cosmic battlefield in the distance, his eyes full of anger.
He had guessed what the high-level civilization would do.
In fact, this guess is easy to confirm.
For a special civilization like the nomadic civilization, it is basically impossible for logistics to not keep up with normal needs.
Because the civilization is behind them, the homeland of any civilization is the most resource-rich, and there is no problem of no resources.
Because if there is a problem on the front line, it is easy to affect their territory.
This is another shortcoming of the nomadic civilization.
But this time they let it go, which is abnormal.
"I have already tried the soldiers stationed at our last line of defense. They don't allow us to retreat at all. We must complete the task according to the mission instructions."
This is a very normal thing. Since we are on the battlefield, we must follow the rules of the army.
But if combined with what happened recently, such an order is a bit interesting.
And this has caused a huge tragedy for the nomadic civilization!
4 months later.
In the unknown star domain.
The second-level legions on the periphery of the nomadic civilization suddenly abandoned the front line at the same time, rebelled against the civilization, and launched a high-intensity attack on the first-level legion and the special forces stationed in the rear.
At the same time, they also opened a gap, intentionally guiding the unknown enemy to help them attack the homeland.
This can be said to be a premeditated and planned action, which caught the nomadic civilization off guard.
Even the high-ranking Gladstone Hall was instantly stunned when facing this situation.
The whole brain was not enough. Who could have thought that the second-level legion soldiers who had been wantonly oppressed, secretly withheld supplies, and even beaten and scolded would rebel against the civilization at this critical moment, which dealt a huge blow to the civilization.
The combat effectiveness of the second-level legion is insufficient. They lack weapons and ammunition, and even have no new recruits.
But after all, they have an advantage in numbers.
As soon as they rebelled, the outer defense line of civilization was repeatedly breached.
At the same time, this change also allowed the player legion to advance straight into the enemy's last line of defense.
This line of defense has special significance for civilization.
Once breached, it means that they are not far from extinction, and this is also the node of the nomadic civilization's torch plan.
But it is very difficult to completely break through this last line of defense.
The special forces stationed here are powerful, with one against ten thousand.
It was only when they did not react when they encountered this sudden change that they suffered heavy casualties.
It can be said that the nomadic civilization was broken in an instant, even if they can win in the end.
But it is probably impossible to restore the previous peak state.
"Damn it, how dare they? How dare these untouchables?"
"Facts speak louder than words, general."
The top leaders of the nomadic civilization were also shocked by the situation on the front line.
However, Gladstone Hall still maintained a certain degree of calm.
It was almost impossible to break through the last line of defense guarded by the elite troops of the civilization headquarters with the second-level legion and the unknown enemy. Although they were caught off guard and some loopholes appeared, they were quickly filled.
This wave of surprise attacks only wiped out a small number of soldiers from the first-level legion. When they reacted, they quickly stabilized the line of defense.
The two sides were in a state of confrontation.
And the unknown enemy also understood very well. They obviously saw the changes on the battlefield.
After the second-level legion rebelled, they did not send troops to attack, but cooperated with them to attack the homeland of the nomadic civilization.
Although it was the first time for the two to cooperate, they cooperated tacitly.
During this period, many key geographical coordinates of the civilization were lost.
There was no way. If you want to preserve your strength, you have to give up some things.
The last line of defense does not refer to the edge of the civilization area, but to an important area in the center of the civilization, including three eternal energy furnaces that drive the civilization forward.
This is the core of the core of the entire nomadic civilization.
It carries the lives of all the local people in the entire civilization headquarters.
Except for these places, other places are called wilderness or countryside by them.
Those who live there are not the people of the civilization headquarters, so even if it is lost, the war is raging, and for the nomadic civilization, it is just an outer defense zone.
After all, when traveling in the universe, it is easy to be attacked by all kinds of strange attacks, and these attacks fall into the nomadic civilization, and the first thing they touch is these edges.
So it is not surprising that some civilizations would make such arrangements.
