The envoys of the Yelong Empire began multi-faceted exchanges with the Tanni Empire.
But when it comes to specific commitments, such as when to form an alliance or when to launch an attack on the Galactic Defense Group's fleet, they don't talk about it at all.
Or just casually brush it off.
And the Tanni Empire is not stupid. No interstellar civilization is stupid.
They could easily see that the Yelong Empire wanted to use the Tanni Empire as cannon fodder, and it would be best to continue the war with the Galactic Defense Group to consume the Galactic Defense Group's strength.
Both sides are pulling each other.
In a conference room in Xinglei, many ministers of the Tanni Empire and the emperor were holding a meeting.
Emperor Zangwill's frown deepened as he read the Foreign Minister's report.
After a long moment, he finally said, "Whether it's the Yelong Empire or the Galaxy Defense Group, their goals are the same."
"They all came here to annex our Tanny Empire!"
"The Yelong Empire appears to be here to help us and is considering forming an alliance with us, but they are definitely not here for fun when they arrive outside our galaxy with an armed fleet."
"If the Galaxy Defense Group hadn't declared war first, and the Yelong Empire's fleet had arrived first, we would have gone to war with the Yelong Empire as well!"
Zangwill was not wrong at all, and the other ministers could also easily analyze it.
After all, a fleet of more than 2,000 main battleships will not leave its home port for no reason.
You know, as soon as a fleet starts sailing, it is equivalent to burning money.
Who would allow such a powerful fleet to spend several years traveling from its home port to an unknown star region?
This fleet of the Yelong Empire must have come with a combat mission.
The location where they appeared also indicated that their target this time was the Tany Empire.
The Minister of Defense stood up and saluted Zangwill before saying, "Your Majesty, no matter why the Yelong Empire came, their arrival is good news for the Empire."
"With the Yelong Empire fleet holding us back, we finally have a chance to catch our breath!"
Zangwill also nodded, and then he said: "Gentlemen, things have developed to this point, so how should we deal with it next?"
At present, the Galactic Defense has already stopped its offensive against the Tany Empire, and the two sides have entered a state of armed confrontation.
The Tany Empire and the Galaxy Defense Group now have a deep hatred.
Zangwill's attitude towards Li Xin was that he wanted to eat him alive.
But it cannot defeat the Galaxy Defense, which is a fatal flaw.
The Foreign Minister said, "Can we use the Yelong Empire to defeat the Galaxy Defense Group?"
The Defense Secretary said: “That’s one approach, but what then?”
"How do we deal with the Yelong Empire? It's also a powerful civilization. We don't even know how powerful they are. Are they comparable to the Galaxy Defense Corporation, or even more powerful?"
The Minister of Defense looked at the Emperor and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I think we should not take any unusual actions right now."
"The Galaxy Defense Fleet is clearly very wary of the Yelong Empire's fleet, which shows that the Yelong Empire is definitely not weak."
"Now we, the Tanni Empire, the Galaxy Defense Group, and the Yelong Empire, are in a triangular confrontation!"
"I believe this is the safest way. We should not form an alliance with the Yelong Empire, nor should we continue the war with the Galaxy Defense Group!"
"Our fleet is no match for these two civilizations, but no matter which side we side with, it will affect the situation."
"Once one side is defeated, whether it's the Galaxy Defense Group or the Yelong Empire, the victorious side will definitely lead the fleet to completely conquer our Tanni Empire!"
"How can there be truly benevolent interstellar civilizations?"
"Even the well-known and friendly Moranok Interstellar Lords have annexed several civilizations, let alone this newly emerged Yelong Empire?"
Emperor Zangwill nodded.
As the leader of an interstellar empire with ten life-bearing planets, he knows the ambitions of a civilization better than anyone else.
Zangwill said, "What the Defense Minister said makes sense. Both the Yelong Empire and the Galaxy Defense Group are predators!"
"They see us as prey."
"Even if you appear to be kind now, it's just a disguise."
"We need to maneuver between the two countries and find the right balance to ensure our security while also developing ourselves!"
Zangwill fixed his gaze on the Foreign Minister and said, "This mission is now up to you!"
The Foreign Minister's eyes were solemn. He bowed and said, "Yes! Your Majesty, I will definitely complete this mission!"
…
Time goes by day by day.
The relationship between the three countries remains unchanged, and they are all testing and wary of each other.
At this time, Li Xin's reinforcements finally arrived.
New variables emerge.
The Wenghua battle group under the Galactic Defense, as well as the new vassal civilization, Zhun's only surviving entity, and the vassal fleet of the Wilk race, arrived in this galaxy together.
In the Mengbi three-star system, accompanied by the flash of subspace jump, three thousand warships suddenly jumped into the star system.
1,500 fourth-generation ships and 1,500 third-generation ships.
This force will be a major variable that changes the course of the battle.
At this point, the number of fleets owned by the Galaxy Defense Group in this star field has reached nearly 6,000 ships.
Among them, there are more than 4,000 fourth-generation ships directly under the control of Galaxy Defense.
This is a huge force, enough to easily defeat the Tanni Empire, and has 2,500 ships that can turn around and defeat the Yelong Empire in the rear.
The situation, which had been somewhat calm, suddenly became different.
Among the three forces around here, the most powerful one is the Galaxy Defense Group.
They have nearly 6,000 main battleships and two A-class psychics.
Next is the Yelong Empire, which has 2,500 fourth-generation battleships and two A-level psychics.
Finally, there is the Tanni Empire. Their overall strength is slightly inferior to the Yelong Empire's fleet, with two thousand main fleets, a star fortress defense line, and one A-level psychic.
Whether it is the Yelong Empire or the Tanni Empire, the fleets here at this time are no match for the Galaxy Defense.
Even if they formed an alliance, they could only contain the Galaxy Defense Group's fleet and prevent it from being defeated quickly.
This made the Tani Empire, which had been somewhat hesitant, suddenly feel that the situation had become extremely dangerous.
The Tanni Empire, which could originally rely on balance to adjust its own status, suddenly became the weakest point.
