Chapter 471, Eight Million Gifts
The victory in the Battle of Temir can certainly be considered a great victory.
Whether from the perspective of the scale of the war, the exchange ratio between the two sides, or the influence of the war, it is no exaggeration to say that it is "big".
In terms of scale, this battle has actually lasted for more than three years. The total number of troops participating in the war, both the greenskins and humans, exceeds 6 billion, with an entire planet serving as the battlefield. On the starry sea, the fleets of both sides have a total of more than 600 warships.
In terms of influence, the outcome of the Temir battle will directly affect the situation on the eastern front of the entire star field, and indirectly affect the war situation in the entire star field.
And the exchange ratio is even more exaggerated.
Over the three years, more than 700 million human troops died on the surface of Temir 5, mainly from the Allied Forces, but the Union Army also lost 60 million people, which is by no means a small number.
But the losses of the greenskins were even more horrific. They had lost a total of 5 billion manpower here, and the remaining 2 billion had no chance of survival.
Those born from the local ecosystem are always a minority, and the vast majority are reinforcements transported from other planets.
It is true that the greenskins can grow out of the ground, and it is also true that they grow very fast, but the loss of more than seven billion of them in one go is definitely a heavy blow in the short term.
But this is not the biggest loss for the greenskins.
The greatest losses were on the warships.
In the naval battle outside the orbit of Temir 5, 193 green-skinned ships were destroyed on the spot by the human fleet. The navy recorded the results of the battle clearly.
Of the more than one hundred warships that escaped, eighty-four were destroyed one after another in the subsequent pursuit.
There were about thirty warships left, and they couldn't actually escape. The human side had already blocked all five jump points in the Temir galaxy, and the greenskins could only flee to the outside of the galaxy through normal navigation.
They have run too far, almost out of the star system, out of the range of the normal Star Communication Tower and Star Observation Tower. It is difficult for the human fleet to catch up to the outside of the star system, that is too far away, and without the communication of the Star Communication Tower and the navigation of the Star Observation Tower, they may get lost outside, and there is a chance that they will not be able to return.
But the greenskin fleet that was driven into the unknown universe would also have the same trouble. They traveled between the stars, relying on the star tunnels. Without the star tunnels, they would also be lost in the cold and dark universe. By the time they find their way back, or by luck they drift to another galaxy, I'm afraid it will take many years.
Those green-skinned ships that ran into the dark universe could basically no longer pose any threat.
From this perspective, the greenskins' 300 ships were completely destroyed.
The price humans paid for this was only about twenty ships, most of which were small boats.
In the naval battle, the victory was even more exaggerated than the one on land that had been fought for three years with a 1:10 exchange ratio.
In this case, it is natural that the Battle of Temir is regarded as an "epic victory" in the system's evaluation.
[Temir Battle Settlement: A great victory, 8,784,990 points of gifts obtained]
Seeing the information on the battle settlement interface, Gu Hang couldn't control the expression on his face and was overjoyed!
It was worth it that he spent so much time, a full two and a half years, fighting this battle.
The Battle of Temir lasted for so long that countless grace points had accumulated in the prize pool, which he crushed with his absolute strength and won a resounding victory at a relatively much smaller cost, and extracted them all at once at a very high coefficient.
However, there should be a higher evaluation for a great victory, right? Should it be called an "epic victory"?
But it is probably difficult to get that level of evaluation. The hard requirement is that the strength of one's side should be similar to that of the other side, or even slightly worse, and that one can win the battle with a small proportion of casualties, and the impact of the war should be relatively large, so as to get the highest coefficient evaluation.
The influence and casualty ratio of the Battle of Temir should have met the requirements. However, being smaller than the enemy was not enough.
But Gu Hang didn't care.
Real war is not a game, and there is no chance for Gu Hang to reload the game and start over. He will not deliberately arrange a small number of troops to fight a big battle just to get a high evaluation or more evaluation points.
If possible, he would like to crush the enemy with superior numbers in every future war.
It doesn't matter if the score is low. The key is to ensure that the battle can be won and the losses of our own troops are as small as possible.
What's more, Gu Hang was already very satisfied with 8.8 million points of grace, which was equivalent to eight times the profit from the Steel Wing Star battle.
It is normal to have so many. Taking all three years into account, the results of this naval battle are three times that of the Steel Wing Star Battle; the results of the ground battle are dozens of times more.
Even though the majority of the greenskins killed on the ground were fart elves, the order of magnitude is still there after all.
It is quite normal to have many grace points.
With these 8.8 million grace points, many of Gu Hang’s subsequent plans will be much smoother!
…
After winning the Temir battle with an absolute crushing victory, Gu Hang's benefits were more than just the income from grace points.
The destruction of three hundred greenskin warships and seven billion greenskins means that the entire eastern part of the Dragonhawk star field is wide open to the Alliance.
As for the future strategy, whether it is to go north to break through the four major star regions of the greenskins' lair, or to go southwest to attack the main force led by the orc chieftain, there is always one target that cannot be avoided, and that is the Jinguan star region itself.
While the hunt for the greenskin fleet was ongoing, the Nova, with hundreds of warships, was also bombing Temir 5.
These two tasks lasted for more than half a month. After the system settlement popped up and the final conclusion was reached, Gu Hang ordered the main force of the army to advance into the hinterland of the Jinguan Star Region.
In addition to leaving behind thirty ships to continue providing support for the remaining battles on Temir 5, the Nova and ten cruisers, with more than 200 million Alliance Army troops transported from the rear of the Alliance, and nearly one billion Allied troops, are the total force that will carry out the mission across the entire Jinguan Star Region.
1.2 billion. This is not the limit of the Alliance's military strength, but it is the limit of the Alliance's ability to deploy troops across star regions at one time. For this purpose, the Alliance mobilized more than 30 giant transport ships. Each giant ship can carry a 20 million-man army group, which is 600 million. The remaining 600 million were stuffed into the major warships and armed merchant ships.
This is already the maximum scale of delivery. If it is larger, the fleet will have to drop off people, equipment and supplies, and then go back to pull them up. The round trip, including the time for loading and unloading, will take at least several months or nearly half a year.
From this point, we can also see the value of transport ships.
But for now, the total force of 1.2 billion, plus 250 human warships, has an absolute advantage over the remaining greenskin forces in the entire Jinguan star region.
