Chapter 279 Chess



Fifty kilometers west of the Wu Gang Star Palace.

Fei Qiujiu squinted, staring at the direction of the palace with a half-smile.

The confidant looked anxious. "Boss, why should we guard the rear for them while they go and take the palace? Can't we take it ourselves?"

"You know nothing!" The strategist glared at him. "Do you even know how many royal armies there are? Stop spouting nonsense!" Pointing to three star systems, "Hundreds of billions!"

"Wow, so many?" His confidants and the others broke out in a cold sweat.

Fei Qiujiu looked at the strategist and smiled faintly, "You don't need to scare them. Although they have three star regions, many people are not of one mind with them. As long as we secretly contact those people, we will have the conditions to negotiate with the Chihun Dynasty."

"Boss, what's going on?" The confidant scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.

“I always tell you to learn more from the strategist, but you never listen!” Fei Qiujiu kicked him and asked, “What’s the thing you most want to do after escaping from Eternal Prison?”

"revenge!"

"And then what?"

"have no idea!"

Fei Qiujiu glared at him. "Idiot! Of course, I'd find a planet and live a carefree and happy life!"

“I understand!” Another confidant said with a smile. “As long as we have leverage, we’re not afraid that the Crimson Hun Empire won’t give us a region.”

"Then we will be able to recruit soldiers and horses and compete for supremacy!"

"Quite ambitious!" the strategist nodded in satisfaction. "However, I like it!"

Ha ha......

Just as everyone was at their most excited, a panicked subordinate rushed into the council hall, shouting, "Boss, boss, something terrible has happened! We're surrounded!"

"What?"

The people on the ninth floor were shocked, but the strategist and Fei Qiujiu smiled mysteriously and said, "Let's go and see!"

The two walked in unison towards the outside.

Not far from the military camp, they saw the military flag of the Chihun Dynasty, and the strategist's eyes flashed with a brief look of worry.

"I'll go and meet him alone!" Fei Qiujiu whispered in the strategist's ear, "Remember, you absolutely can't make a mistake!"

"rest assured!"

Soon after, Fei Qiujiu arrived near the encirclement, channeled his primal force, and shouted, "Leader, come out and let's talk!"

Chichao stepped out from the crowd, staring intently at him. "Talk? Do you even have the right to talk?"

"Hehe!" Fei Qiujiu pointed to a distant star field, a half-smile on his face. "What do you think?"

The two of them just stared at each other like that...

The news quickly reached Xiaoman, and the three of them rushed over.

After learning the details, his brows furrowed immediately.

Xiaoman looked at Xifeng, "How many people are in the besieged prison army?"

“About 20,000!” Lizard Guide Ling frowned, his face grim. “Although they only have 20,000 men, even the weakest among them are at least three-star strength. If war breaks out, we will suffer heavy losses!”

After a moment of silence, he asked, "What's the situation with the air combat?"

"Chipingmela has been wiped out. Storm and General Askar are preparing to annihilate the prison air force!" Lizard Wind.

"I see!" Xiaoman's mind raced as she flipped through a map of the entire Martial Star, pointing to one spot and shaking her head. "This won't work, and this won't work either. So, where exactly is their weakness?"

Everyone fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, Xiaoman pointed to a tall mountain, very excited, "Look, if we sneak in from here, can we destroy the enemy's weapons and supplies?"

“It’s feasible!” Lizard Wind blocked their way. “Princess, I know you are very capable, but you absolutely cannot go this time!”

"Why?" Xiaoman frowned.

"The Eternal Prison is filled with the most heinous and vicious criminals." The lizard guide bowed to Dudu. "Princess, you must stop the First Princess!"

"I will!" Dudu tugged at Xiaoman. "Sister, Third Grandfather is still negotiating with Fei Qiujiushi. It's not a good time to make a move. Let's wait and see, okay?"

Xiaoman nodded and stepped aside.

On the other side.

Chi Hun spoke first, "I can afford to wait, but can you?"

He pointed to the horizon.

A flicker of panic crossed Fei Qiujiu's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and chuckled, "Trying to threaten me with the Air Force?"

"It's not a threat, but a friendly reminder!" Chi Hun said, his eyes half-closed. "If they suffer heavy losses, you'll have a hard time explaining it to your men!"

"Heh!" Fei Qiujiu rolled his eyes at him. "Old fool, your military strategy is masterful! Too bad, my men don't fall for your tricks. To tell you the truth, before we came here, Torso and the others never expected to land alive."

"Is that so?" Akashio's smile deepened, and he nodded to his confidant, at which point a huge projection appeared.

The sky was filled with chaos and battle.

The scene changes.

The prison army had only a few hundred fighter jets left, guarding the vicinity of the main ship.

"How long do you think it will take to eat them?" Akashi asked with a smile, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"You're ruthless!" Fei Qiujiu didn't care about the lives of others, but he cared a lot about Tuoer Suo. If Tuoer Suo died, his plan would not be able to be implemented.

After a moment of silence, staring at the Red Tide, he said, "Tell me, what do you want for me to let them go!"

"I haven't decided yet!" Akashi Tide pretended to be troubled, muttering to herself from time to time, "What should I order?"

Fei Qiujiu's lips twitched, suppressing his anger. "Make them stop attacking first, then we'll discuss what to do next."

"Alright!"

Chi Chao slowly picked up the communicator. "Order: All air attack forces, immediately cease the encirclement and suppression, without fail!" He turned to Fei Qiujiu Shi. "I've shown my sincerity, shouldn't you also show yours?"

Fei Qiujiu cursed "old fox" in his heart, then nodded. "After I get back, I will immediately have them retreat to the vicinity of the meteorite cluster."

"That's quite sincere!" Chichao cupped his hands in greeting. "I hope the subsequent negotiations will go smoothly!"

"That's what I think too!"

The two, each with their own ulterior motives, exchanged a knowing smile and returned.

......

The prison army's temporary command post.

"Brother, do you know what the vicinity of the meteorite cluster means?" The confidant asked angrily.

Fei Qiujiu glared at him fiercely, "Of course I know. That's the air force's last line of defense, and the key to whether they can successfully break through."

"If you knew this, why did you just hand it over to him?" Many people wondered.

"For the brothers still fighting in the air!" Fei Qiujiu said righteously, but in reality he was secretly observing his men. After confirming that they had no suspicions, he continued, "We can break through on the ground, but we don't have interstellar travel tools. We will be trapped on Wugang Star."

"At that point, if they keep sending troops to besiege us, how long can we hold out?"

Everyone gasped.

"Brother, you've thought this through perfectly." The confidant gave a thumbs up. "I'll go pick up Brother Tuo'er Suo right now!"

"Stop right there!" Fei Qiujiu slapped him on the head. "I told you to use your brain, not your ass. They're trapped in space, how are we going to get them?"

"That's true!" the confidant chuckled, scratching his head.

"All of you, get out! Remember, keep your men in check. These are critical times, we must remain calm!" said the cunning strategist.

Soon, only the two of them remained in the council chamber.

The strategist, looking grave, said, "Brother, we're trapped in the middle, both in the heavens and the earth. If the negotiations fail, we'll be attacked from both sides. We need to find a bargaining chip to intimidate them!"

"You want to?" Fei Qiujiu smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Once this is done, there will be no turning back."

"Hey! There's another way, but it's very risky!"

"Tell me about it!"

After carefully surveying the surroundings, the strategist whispered, "They've just restored their kingdom, and the morale of their people and army is definitely unstable. If we send out some people with stealth skills to stir up their emotions, Martial Star will surely be thrown into chaos. Once they're in disarray, we'll have our chance!"

"Alright!" Fei Qiujiu wasn't very confident, but she decided to give it a try.

The order was secretly given, and twenty four-star Force experts vanished from everyone's sight...

at the same time.

Xiaoman had deduced that the enemy might target the civilians, so she immediately summoned all the generals and instructed them to take strict precautions.

"Sister, instead of being passive all the time, let's take the initiative!" Maoqiu looked at everyone. "Send me up to the sky, and as long as we catch Torso, they won't dare to do anything reckless!"

"No way!" Xiaoman and Dudu said in unison.

Red Tide looked at Byun Che, "Take your men and rendezvous with Vagalav, find an opportunity to infiltrate the enemy flagship, and capture Torso alive!"

"Yes, sir!" Bian Che left.

While everyone was discussing other matters, Xiaoman naturally retreated to the back and used her stealth skill.

By the time everyone noticed, she was already on Bian Che's fighter jet formation.

Red Tide ordered them to return, but Xiaoman revealed the late king's token, and Bian Che dared not disobey, so he accelerated forward.

The fighter jet formation quickly appeared inside the main ship.

Váglav personally greeted him.

"No need for formalities!" Xiaoman pointed to the people nearby. "Are they reliable?"

"reliable!"

Xiaoman nodded. "Are there any fighter jets or interstellar flight equipment that can be completely invisible?"

"Yes, it is!" Vagraf said, then immediately regretted it. Seeing her staring at him, he could only continue, "Although the enemy ship's equipment is not as good as ours, it still has the ability to detect stealth units. Therefore, this method will not work!"

Xiaoman's face was frosty as she shouted sharply, "Vagraf, stand at attention! Let me ask you a question: who's in charge here?"

"You, the First Princess!"

"That's good! Prepare the most advanced stealth fighters immediately."

"Yes, I'll go choose it myself!"

Wagraf nodded bitterly to Bian Che.

He rushed up to Xiaoman, his expression serious. "Princess, if you insist on going, you must bring the Lion Special Forces with you."

"Yes, you must take us!" everyone exclaimed.

"No need, I'll go alone!" Xiaoman said firmly.

Suddenly, Bian Che drew his gun and pointed it at his temple. "His Highness repeatedly instructed me to protect you. If you do not allow us to follow you, we will immediately commit suicide."

The other members also pressed guns against their own heads.

Xiaoman's lips curled into a bitter smile as she thought, "This group is the most capable special forces team in the Chihun Kingdom. I absolutely cannot let them commit suicide in front of me. Oh well, since they insist on going, let them go. Maybe they can really be of help."

"I agree!"

A look of wild joy flashed in Bian Che's eyes, "Are you sure?"

A ruler's word is his bond!

The crowd immediately put away their guns and cheered.

Xiaoman's gaze slowly moved, carefully memorizing the smiling faces of this group of people. She sighed, "I wonder how many people will be left after this operation!"

Bian Che stood ramrod straight and saluted towards the palace. "When we joined the Lion Special Forces, we swore an oath: to fight for the Crimson Starfield, even if it means sacrificing our lives, we will have no regrets!"

"I would give my life, even my brains, without regret..."
