Lord of Ashes
Thirty million interstellar warships.
At the same time, it launched surprise attacks on hundreds of locations, including some important positions around the capital star system.
This is truly a direct attack on the enemy's face.
"Pass on my orders."
You must investigate this matter thoroughly for me as quickly as possible.
Who exactly is behind this Lord of Ashes?
Furthermore, I must eliminate all these rebels as quickly as possible.
All prisoners captured shall be escorted to the capital planet.
"I'll show those guys what happens when they dare betray me, Ash Venerable!" Ash Venerable roared.
Next, naturally, came the intensive work of suppressing the rebellion.
At the Ash Lord's request, the temple was directly used as a temporary military command center.
The military general was in charge of suppressing the rebellion, and all other personnel were required to obey him unconditionally.
The Ash Lord issued a direct order.
That means controlling the rebellion within a week!
This rebellion must be basically quelled within a month.
Furthermore, this rebellion must not affect the situation on the front lines.
Those important war hubs, such as attacked stargates, starports, resource-producing areas, and industrial sites, must be defended!
We must ensure that, in case, it is not the case.
If any problems arise, Ashbringer will hold those responsible accountable on the spot.
at the moment.
Above the temple, you can see a huge map of the Ash Lord's Kingdom, with red dots that are constantly flashing in circular ripples.
The larger the flashing area, the higher the level of the war.
The smaller the value, the lower the combat level.
Some important hub locations will also be marked.
Hundreds of target locations were attacked.
Almost all of them are starports, stargates, industrial facilities, resource-producing areas, and the like.
However, even though they are all star gates, their importance can vary.
Some extremely important stargates, which are the main stargates in the entire Ash Lord Kingdom's stargate network, will naturally receive special attention.
More legion fleets will be dispatched to provide support and protection.
Other, less important tasks, included assigning local troops to defend their posts at all costs.
Whether they can hold out or not is not something these bigwigs need to worry about.
And while making a series of war deployments.
Soon they faced their first problem.
That is, a lack of manpower.
This rebellion involved 30 million interstellar warships, most of which were T2-class warships, but there were also a certain number of T3 warships.
This means that they would need to mobilize a much larger fleet to quell the rebellion, at least five to ten million ships.
At present, they can only allocate three million interstellar warships.
If we want to transfer more personnel, we can only do so from the front lines or...
At this moment, a general looked at the Ash Venerable and bowed, saying, "Venerable Venerable, we are currently facing a severe shortage of interstellar warships."
And in accordance with your previous command.
We need your orders to draw fleets from the front lines or other locations.
"The legion fleets on the front lines should not be moved lightly."
If those conquerors discover that our legion fleets on the front lines have decreased, they will surely seize the opportunity to launch an attack.
The frontline defenses cannot be lost.
You mean other places?
What place is it?
"Where are there any legion fleets that can be mobilized?" Ash Venerable asked.
The general hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "It's the legion fleet that guards the capital star system."
At this point, the general dared not say any more.
Deploying the legion's fleet from the capital planet to support other battlefields is undoubtedly like tackling a tiger's tail.
If he is not careful, his words might offend the Venerable One, and he would be in deep trouble.
Upon hearing the general's words, the other ministers in the temple also fell silent.
Throughout history, regarding the legion fleets of the Ash Venerable Kingdom, whatever happened to other legion fleets, even internal problems, they were always concerned.
Even the Ash Venerable can turn a blind eye.
However, this particular fleet of legions on the capital planet is a taboo subject that no one can touch.
Because this is the last line of defense for his safety.
Touching it will surely lead to death.
This legion's fleet possesses the newest and most advanced interstellar warships from the Ashbringer Kingdom.
This legion's fleet also enjoys the best benefits and treatment.
The Ash Venerable looked at the general who had lowered his head, his expression unchanged.
After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "How much do you need to adjust?"
This legion fleet of the capital star is around three to five million interstellar warships.
That's why there's such a big difference.
This is because the size of this legion's fleet is indeed not fixed.
Three million interstellar warships are the minimum requirement, and sometimes there will be some legion fleets that return from rest and recuperation.
However, similarly, the Ash Lord will not allow too many legion fleets to appear within the Ash Lord Kingdom's capital star system.
As for what he was worried about, everyone actually knew very well.
When the general heard this, he felt a huge weight lift from his chest.
He immediately said, "One million... one million interstellar warships will suffice!"
One million interstellar warships, although that's not a large number.
It only accounts for one-third of the total.
Actually, the demand for this number is still greater.
However, the general dared not mention too much, for he was genuinely worried that the Ash Lord would doubt his intentions.
Let's just choose the number one million interstellar warships.
At least one million interstellar warships could also alleviate the pressure on various battlefields.
It's better than nothing, right?
“One million interstellar warships.” After a moment’s thought, the Ash Venerable said in a deep voice, “Alright, I agree.”
But we must quell this rebellion.
"yes!"
The general breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began mobilizing the legion fleet in the capital star system.
One million interstellar warships began to be dispatched one by one through the stargates of the capital system to other star systems to support the battle.
Just when everyone thought that this large-scale rebellion known as the 'Lord of Ashes' would be alleviated under these circumstances and eventually subside,
In the galactic boundary space surrounding the capital star system of the Ash Venerable Kingdom.
A pack of wolves is hiding here, ready to bare their fangs.
These were naturally the legion fleet led by Feng Lanhua.
Five hundred thousand elite interstellar warships, and in fact, another three million interstellar warships.
However, these three million interstellar warships are all T2-level interstellar warships, so they are not counted in the five hundred thousand elite interstellar warships.
The legion fleet led by Wind Orchid did not launch an attack on the capital planet while other Ash Lord battlefields were operating.
Because she needs to choose the most appropriate time to attack in order to maximize the effect of the attack.
And now, she has finally waited for this moment.
"Report! In the capital star system of the Ash Venerable Kingdom, one million interstellar warships have been deployed to other star system battlefields to support the suppression of rebellions in various places!" the subordinate reported to Wind Orchid.
Feng Lanhua smiled slightly as she looked at the battlefield sand table of the Ash Venerable Kingdom before her and said, "One million interstellar warships."
It seems our Lord Ashbringer has become quite bold lately.
As far as we know, the Legion fleet originally located within the capital star system of the Ash Venerable Kingdom consisted of approximately 3.5 million interstellar warships, with an additional 500,000 interstellar warships in a non-combat state.
For these non-combat interstellar warships to enter combat mode, it would take at least half a day.
Therefore, the only real threat to us is these 3.5 million interstellar warships.
One million interstellar warships have been relocated.
Then we'll have to face the remaining 2.5 million interstellar warships.
"General, shall we make our move now?" the subordinate asked.
Feng Lanhua shook her head, looked at the interstellar war sand table, and said with a smile, "No rush, let the bullets fly for a while longer."
"We haven't even revealed all the gifts we've given to Lord Ashbringer yet!"
Several more hours passed.
In the past few hours, one million interstellar warships in the capital system of the Ash Venerable Kingdom have largely departed the capital system and headed to various battlefields to support the suppression of the battle, as originally planned.
Just when the ministers in the temple thought the matter could be resolved so smoothly.
Even worse news followed.
A video window appeared directly in the temple command center.
Previously, the temple's rule was that no one except His Holiness was authorized to communicate freely.
This is why, when those things happened, it was always the officers outside the temple who entered the temple to report the news.
That's the reason.
After temporarily setting up the temple as the command center for this suppression of the rebellion, Lord Ash Lord allowed the communication restrictions to be temporarily lifted.
Although the Ash Lord is now incompetent, he also came through the flames of war back then.
He was well aware of the importance of instant communication in this wartime environment.
Therefore, he granted this authorization.
Now, a communication window has appeared in the command center.
But those high-ranking generals in the military don't receive just any news.
After all, this is a temple.
They had set up various branch command posts well in advance. Generally, matters that were not very important would be decided by the staff officers of those branch command posts first.
Once the basic situation is confirmed, the team will proceed to the temple command center, where several high-ranking military officials will symbolically finalize the action plan.
Unless it's something truly important that the staff officers in the lower-level command posts can't make the decision.
And right now, there is such a situation.
"Report: The Ash Sea system has been attacked by a rebel group."
The attacking rebel fleet consisted of nearly one million ships.
They launched separate attacks on multiple locations within the Sea of Ash system.
The Ash Sea system has sent out a distress signal!
Upon receiving this news.
The military leaders all looked toward the Ash Lord on the throne.
Because this Ash Sea galaxy is actually worthless.
It has no resource value, no industrial sector, and no important stargate hub.
But everyone knows that.
This seemingly ordinary sea of ash galaxy.
But this is a very special place for the Ash Venerable.
Because the Sea of Ashes existed before the Kingdom of Ash Lords was established, when the universe was still in a state of chaotic order.
The Ash Lord started his career in the Sea of Ashes, then swept across the entire universe, eventually establishing the Ash Lord Kingdom.
In other words, this Sea of Ashes is where the Ash Lord set sail.
That's why, even though the Sea of Ashes is just an ordinary star system.
Everyone knows that for Ashbringer, it has a completely different meaning.
In fact, in his earlier years, Ashbringer would even travel to the Sea of Ashes for a period of time every now and then.
As everyone knows, the Sea of Ashes is the homeland of the Ash Lord.
Now, the Sea of Ashes is under attack by the rebel organization, the Lord of Ashes.
Everyone knows that the Sea of Ashes has almost no strategic value.
The Lord of Ashes attacked this place; what secrets lie behind this?
Anyone with a modicum of common sense knows this.
This is like pressing your own shoehorn into the face of the Ash Venerable.
The actual impact is not significant, but the meaning of humiliation is profound.
It is worth noting that numerous memorials to Ashbringer have been erected in the Sea of Ashes, including a statue of Ashbringer the size of an asteroid.
If the Sea of Ashes has fallen...
It's easy to imagine what these rebel groups would do here.
Just thinking about these things makes these military ministers hesitant to make any decisions.
They could only look towards the Ash Lord on the throne and wait for him to speak.
Lord Ash was also silent at this moment, as if waiting for his subordinates to give an answer.
The stalemate lasted for several minutes.
This made the whole atmosphere very awkward.
Ash Venerable's expression gradually darkened.
The military minister who previously offered to requisition the fleet of the garrison in the capital star system of the Ash Venerable Kingdom.
He sighed inwardly, realizing he had understood Ash Venerable's thoughts.
The Ash Lord remained silent, but in reality, he wanted his subordinates to speak.
He couldn't possibly be unaware that the Sea of Ashes had no real practical value; its symbolic value was far greater.
If the Ash Lord didn't care about the Sea of Ashes, he would have said immediately upon hearing the news that he wouldn't concern himself with it.
Just have everyone deploy for battle according to the original plan.
But the Ash Lord did not speak.
This shows that he was unwilling to give up the Sea of Ashes.
