Bruce was also very angry when he received this news. He had publicized the attack plan extensively, so it was expected that the two rebel forces would join forces.
However, he did not expect that not only the Executors but also the Transcenders had the presence of other alien civilizations. He failed to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop on the front battlefield, and his home in the rear was also robbed. It was obvious that this was a conspiracy against Hoglas.
Now he had to either withdraw his troops and send reinforcements or continue the attack, but he couldn't take it down by force in a short time. Just when Bruce was still hesitating.
A message from the Trisolarans made up his mind.
"Respected Chief Bruce, regarding the attack on Hog Elam, do you require assistance from the Trisolaran fleet? We Trisolarans are willing to lend a helping hand to our allies."
Looking at Snow in front of the screen, Bruce suppressed his inner anger and replied calmly:
"Thank you for your concern, my Three-Body friend. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. There's no need to bother with this small-scale rebellion yourself. We will resolve it immediately."
What a joke! Thousands of Trisolaran warships are now parked outside the star field. How could he just let them in like that? He knew it was easier to invite a god than to send him away.
"Really? Then we were reckless. Sorry."
It was just a mention in the first place, and Snow was hoping that Bruce would really go crazy and agree to it. He came here to ask in order to urge him to withdraw his troops.
The Executors are still too weak, and the number of modified fleets is insufficient. If they really fight, they probably won't be able to hold on.
"Could I trouble the Trisolaran fleet to block the rebels' evacuation route from the outer reaches of the star field?"
Although the Trisolaran fleet couldn't be brought into the galaxy, wouldn't it be a good thing if they could help block it from the outside? Bruce's calculations were quite sound.
"Well......"
Snow didn't expect Bruce to do this. If he sent a fleet to intercept the Transcendent's fleet, they would have no chance of running away. But if they didn't agree, it would not be conducive to future cooperation.
However, Snow agreed very readily. After all, he was the invigilator. If the other person really ran away, it would be his own fault, right?
After getting Snow's consent, Bruce became more and more satisfied with this Trisolaran ally. He did not interfere in internal affairs and helped suppress the domestic rebellion. No matter how you look at it, he is an excellent ally.
Since the front-line battlefield could not be taken down for the time being, Bruce immediately ordered a withdrawal. Although this time it seemed a bit anticlimactic, it was not unacceptable as long as he came back and wiped out the Transcendent Fleet.
Snow readily agreed to Bruce's request and soon contacted Zheng Gan. After learning the news, Zheng Gan asked Snow to do as he pleased and he would come to the rescue when the time comes.
The technology of the two rebel armies suddenly soared. Bruce now had no doubt that if he didn't find any other clues after a while, he would still suspect that the suddenly appearing Trisolarans were secretly supporting the two rebel armies and interfering in the internal affairs of Hoglas.
Instead of doing this, Zheng Gan might as well take the initiative to show up and clearly tell Bruce that other civilizations have begun to take control.
Firstly, he could get the Trisolarans out; secondly, he could confirm what he and the Transcendents had said about their hostile relationship with the Trisolarans; thirdly, he could rescue them at the critical moment and start the next transaction.
After making a good plan, Zheng Gan also told Snow not to take precautions in the early stage, and just perform a show when breaking out at the end.
After receiving the order, Snow immediately ordered the Trisolaran fleet to begin operations on the outskirts of the Hog Iram galaxy. A large number of water droplets were arranged to cruise in various corners.
The actions of the Trisolar Fleet naturally reached Drus's ears. Drus was still wary of this new ally of Hoglas. Now the Trisolar Fleet had obviously blocked their retreat route.
If the Trisolaran fleet really completed the blockade, even if he defeated Hogh Iram, he would definitely not be able to hold it under the high pressure of Bruce and the Trisolaran fleet.
The information from the executor has also been passed on. Bruce has led the army to return for support. If you don't run now, you will never be able to escape when Bruce's army returns.
Thinking of this, Druse decisively issued an order to withdraw troops. This time, the purpose was to attack Wei and save Zhao, so there was no need to fight to the death here.
The withdrawing Transcendent fleet soon encountered the Three-Body Fleet that blocked them on the outskirts of Hogh Iram. Under the shuttle bombardment of countless water droplets, Drus could only command the fleet to continue to break out.
The method chosen by Snow is to use a massive scraping attack, and the weapon power is not fully utilized, but it is just to show the intensity of the battle, and it is also necessary to stop the Transcendent's breakthrough.
Everything has to wait until Bruce's fleet returns to support the Transcendent Fleet, making it feel desperate, and then Zheng Gan will descend from the sky to rescue the people.
Therefore, no matter how Drus's fleet tried to break through, it was firmly restricted outside the galaxy by the Three-Body Fleet and could never make a jump.
Drus, who was getting more and more frustrated as the battle went on, finally understood the level of Hoglas's new ally. In this battle, they were as helpless as a naughty child being teased by an adult.
As the battle continued, a strong spatial fluctuation attracted the attention of both sides. Bruce, who hurried back, was overjoyed to see the Transcendent Fleet being trapped by the Three-Body Fleet.
This ally is really useful.
On the other side, Drus was already half-hearted. They had already had a hard time being fooled by a single Trisolarian fleet, and now with the arrival of Hoglas's main fleet, they were probably going to die here.
"Drus! Give up your struggle and follow me back to Hog-Iram for trial."
Seeing that Drus was already trapped, Bruce began to persuade him to surrender. He still wanted to take back this fleet.
Druss naturally turned a deaf ear to Bruce's words. After a while of arguing, Bruce, who had lost his patience, ordered a siege on the rebels!
Staring at the fleet that was gradually closing in, Drus also ordered a final breakout.
The huge disparity in troop strength quickly caused damage to the Transcendent's fleet. Just when Drus thought he would die here, a thick beam of light shot directly from an unknown starry sky.
The Trisolaran fleet, knowing the situation in advance, very "naturally" avoided the beam of light, allowing it to hit Bruce's fleet camp.
In order to dodge, a gap appeared in the original encirclement. After receiving the message from Zheng Gan, Drus immediately commanded the fleet to break through the gap.
Suddenly, something happened. Looking at the warship that suddenly came to rescue people, Bruce remained very calm.
"really!"
