After thinking and discussing for a while, Emperor Kipling Venom communicated with Brown Yeron again.
Emperor Kipling Yeron asked, "How is the Galaxy Defense Group's intelligence gathering going?"
Brown Yellon was well prepared. He replied calmly, "The Galaxy Defense Group is far more troublesome than we imagined."
"They are indeed a powerful and civilized garrison state."
Kipling Yeron was shocked: "Who is that powerful civilization?"
Brown Yellon replied, "They're from the same family as the Galaxy Defense Group, the Blueprint Biotech Group!"
"But this civilization is currently in the midst of a subspace storm and cannot provide any assistance to the Galaxy Defense Group for the time being."
"It might even have been destroyed in the warp storm!"
Of course, the information obtained by Brown Yellon was deliberately leaked by Li Xinrang.
Li Xin is also very good at making coats out of tiger skins.
There is no doubt that the Yelong Empire is powerful. The Galaxy Defense Group’s explosive troop state is not as strong as their normal state.
Once the two sides really start fighting, even if Galaxy Defense wins, it will be a pyrrhic victory and it will be unable to expand the fruits of victory.
Moreover, if the fleet suffers more losses, it will be much more difficult for the Galaxy Defense Group to recover its strength than the Yelong Empire.
The Yelong Empire has entered a state of war, and it may take a few years or even more than ten years to restore to its heyday, or even a shorter time.
As for Li Xin, it would take decades to restore the Galaxy Defense Group's fleet strength after the losses.
It took as many years to build the current space force as it did. It would take Li Xin almost the same amount of time to rebuild it.
At most, it will be slightly faster, and this is because the population base has expanded.
Now that the Yelong Empire has received this news, it has become a little hesitant.
Because this is basically the same as their previous guess.
Kipling Yeron thought to himself:
"No wonder, this is consistent with the think tank's prediction."
"Indeed, how could a civilization with only two planets of life possess fourth-generation warships on its first interstellar journey?"
Recall the battle report between the Galaxy Defense Group and the Venom Family of the Yelong Empire.
"Their fourth-generation ships are even more powerful than ours."
"Maybe there are even weapons more powerful than the fourth-generation ships?"
Kipling Yeron thought of the records about the Phantom-class battlecruiser and the Starburst Cannon in the battle report.
He could keenly perceive that this was not an ordinary fourth-generation ship weapon system, but it was not as good as the dreadnought built with an A-class psychic core.
The Yelong Empire also has dreadnoughts, but there is only one ship of this level in the capital's First Guard Battle Group.
This level of warships will only be deployed when the emperor personally leads the battle.
The dreadnought is of course stronger, both in terms of attack and defense, and is stronger than the Phantom-class battlecruiser in the battle report.
But the positioning of the two sides is different.
What is a dreadnought? It is the mainstay of a civilization.
The Phantom-class battlecruiser, on the other hand, is a warship that can be mass-produced.
There is absolutely no comparison between the two.
Kipling Yeron asked, "So, how do you think we should deal with the Galaxy Defense Group?"
Brown Yellon had discussed this issue with his aide Dahler before, so he already had a plan in mind.
Brown Yellon said, "Your Majesty, I think the threat posed by the powerful civilization behind the Galaxy Defense Group is not that great."
"After all, this civilization is still in the midst of a subspace storm. It's hard to say when this storm will dissipate."
"Maybe it will take another one or two hundred years, or even longer, for it to dissipate!"
"So, we only need to consider the strength of the Galaxy Defense Group itself!"
Emperor Kipling Yellon did not comment on Brown Yellon's idea.
The emperor thought of even more things.
It is true that the subspace storm is raging, and it is true that Blueprint Biotech Group is isolated.
But the Galaxy Defense Group of a garrisoned state is so powerful.
How powerful must the civilization behind them be?
Can the warp storm really destroy this civilization?
This is an unknown.
If the Yelong Empire launched an offensive against the Galaxy Defense Group, it might even succeed in destroying this garrison state.
What will happen if the Blueprint Biotechnology Group reappears once the warp storm subsides?
That's just one reason.
Brown Yeron had little to think about, but the Emperor had much to think about.
If the warp storm does not dissipate, it may even last for another one or two hundred years, or even longer.
Those planets close to the subspace storm are even more difficult to attack.
No one can say for sure whether this subspace storm will continue to expand and may even involve the Galactic Defense Group and the Tany Empire's galaxy.
What should I do about this?
In this way, all the investment made by the Yelong Empire will be wasted.
Emperor Kipling Yeron sighed.
It is extremely difficult for two powerful civilizations to achieve the greatest benefit at the lowest cost.
The Yelong Empire is certainly powerful.
And the Galaxy Defense Group is not weak either.
Kipling Yeron pondered, "Based on the information we've already gathered from the intelligence, the Galaxy Defense Group headquarters has at least seven or eight thousand fourth-generation ships."
"If you include the vassal fleets, we have at least tens of thousands of warships."
"The Empire is certainly stronger than the Galactic Defense Corporation, but if we want to defeat them, without expanding our military, we'll need to mobilize the entire nation's fleet to achieve victory with minimal losses."
"But there are still threats around the empire. We can't mobilize all the fleets of the royal family and the Pillar Family."
"In this case, domestic military expansion is inevitable."
"Expand the army... expand the army..."
"Expanding the military is easy to say, but it's not the best option for the royal family."
"The royal family has spent so many years gradually consolidating power. Once the army is expanded, it means that the restrictions on the pillar families and other middle and high-level nobles will be lifted."
"The Pillar Family can also own more fleets. The middle and high-level nobles may become the new Pillar Family because of this military expansion."
"The royal family will of course still be the most powerful, but the balance of power will be unbalanced again, and the royal family's power will shrink."
Every civilization has its own problems and limitations.
Different political systems naturally face different problems.
Although the Yelong Empire is powerful, they also have many problems. The royal family, pillar families, and middle and high-level aristocratic families all want more power.
The Yelong Empire appears to be centralized, but behind it lies a lot of filth.
