Within the starport.
Inside a simple meeting room.
This conference room has basically no decoration and is simply built with metal plates.
It's not even armor material, it's just ordinary steel metal that has undergone preliminary smelting.
In this conference room, there are psychics above the rank of fleet commander of this fleet.
The conference room was filled with smoke and everyone had a frown on their face.
There are no A-level psychics in the current fleet, and the most powerful are just a few peak B-level psychics.
An officer wearing the fleet commander's power armor finished his cigarette, exhaled the last puff of smoke, and said, "Now the Galactic Defense Front has unified all of humanity and established a unified regime."
"Where else can we go from now on?"
In the past, they could still rely on the Watchers Alliance or some affiliated groups of the Interstellar Freedom Covenant to barely obtain some supplies.
Now they are all gone. Even those who are brave enough will not sell resources and logistical supplies to them.
And now it’s not just a question of whether others will sell it or not. Even if there are logistical supplies, they are afraid to buy it now.
They were afraid that there might be some kind of positioning system stored in these logistical supplies, or they could simply follow the clues and find their current location.
This officer has no hatred towards the Galactic Defense Front. He came here just for freedom and for his own power.
I originally thought that if I could hold on until the end, my status would get higher and higher.
Unexpectedly, the Interstellar Freedom Covenant suddenly became cowardly and surrendered all at once.
This caught him off guard.
In this conference room, there are many people with ulterior motives, but there are also those who are truly unwilling to surrender.
An officer who refused to surrender crushed his cigarette butt on the table and said, "We're not going anywhere. Since we can't get supplies through conventional means, let's try some illegal means."
"Can a living person be killed by holding his urine?"
"We've fought off space pirates before. They only have a few ships, yet they dare to engage in this kind of business. With two thousand ships, why not also engage in space pirate business?"
"Star Pirate?"
"I don't want to be a space pirate!"
"Then do we still have shame?!"
The officer who made the suggestion had a cold expression on his face. He said, "No matter what, I am unwilling to surrender to the Galactic Defense Front!"
"My family, my father and my brothers, all died under the artillery fire of the Galaxy Defense Front. I will never forget this hatred!"
"Can you forget all this hatred?!"
If you fight a war, people will die.
The Galactic Defense Corporation will die, and so will the people of the Interstellar Freedom Covenant.
The only difference is that the Galactic Defense Front is the victor, and their people died, they were sacrificed, and they are heroes.
Especially now that the Galactic Defense Front has unified all of humanity, they are even more of heroes.
And if the Interstellar Freedom Covenant dies, no one will remember it.
Not classifying them as rebels was already a great courtesy.
Some people don't want to be pirates, some want to surrender, but they dare not say it out loud now.
"The problem now is that whatever decision we make has to be made quickly," said a fleet commander.
"Our supplies won't last long."
"It's impossible to support so many of our ships just by relying on the resources produced by this star port."
Someone suggested, "Why don't we get away from human civilization and head outwards to find a stable galaxy before our energy supplies run out, and at least develop it enough to support so many of our ships."
"We won't be stuck here. We can't even build a larger base."
"Or, we can conquer other alien civilizations along the way and enslave them to produce resources for us."
When this suggestion was put forward, more people accepted it.
After all, they are all officers of the Interstellar Freedom Covenant. If given a choice, no one would want to be a space pirate.
But everyone also knows that the difficulty in conquering other alien civilizations has never been the process of fighting.
But find a suitable alien civilization.
This is where the difficulty lies.
Those that are close, easy to be discovered, and easy to conquer have long been conquered by humans.
The discussion continued and the meeting room was still filled with smoke.
But this smog won't last long.
They have limited supplies of this kind. Relying on current hydroponics, they can't even grow enough food, so it's impossible to grow these things.
And the quality of the ones cultivated is not very good.
…
While this group of losers were discussing.
In the subspace, a patrol fleet is heading towards this galaxy.
This is a fleet of fifth-generation ships.
It is also a veteran fleet that has been baptized by war and has strong combat effectiveness.
Their mission is to check all the surrounding galaxies.
In the flagship's headquarters.
The fleet commander was reviewing the mission briefing and discussing it with his chief of staff.
"The Space Horizon Department has discovered this galaxy and there are signs of spaceships moving around. Do you think the enemy fleets are hiding here?"
The Chief of Staff said, "It's possible."
"There are still unreported space missions. They are either those of defeated troops or space pirates."
"No matter which one it is, it's our military achievement!"
"Let's get ready for battle. As long as we can fight, we will gain military merit!" said the fleet commander with a wave of his hand.
"Now is the early stage of the Galaxy Defense Front. As long as we seize the opportunity, we will definitely have the chance to soar into the sky!"
It's in this atmosphere.
This patrol fleet of the Galactic Defense Front leaped out of the subspace.
The moment this fleet appeared, the fleet behind the super-large gas planet discovered this scene.
The patrol fleet also discovered enemy mining ships working in the galaxy.
The moment he spotted the mining ship, the fleet commander exclaimed in delight, "Great! We've caught a big fish!"
"Find me their starport!"
"Everyone prepare for battle!!"
Following the fleet commander's loud command, the patrol fleet's reconnaissance system was fully activated.
All ships were ready for battle.
The enemy's star port had not been exposed yet, but soon, the patrol fleet's reconnaissance ship discovered the defeated army's star port behind the super-large gas planet through the transportation tracks of the mining ships and the traces left by their navigation.
"commander!"
"Found the target!"
"Behind the super-massive planet!"
But soon, with further investigation, the intelligence reported made it difficult for the commander to make a decision.
"Commander! The enemy has over two thousand military vessels!"
The patrol fleet has only 300 ships, while the enemy has 2,000 ships. Can we win?
The fleet commander is also at a loss.
