Chapter 936: Not Unsolvable
Gu Hang has always been able to pay attention to the situation of the expeditionary force.
He has indeed been paying attention.
In his opinion, the Alliance is undoubtedly the core of saving the entire human empire, and he does not believe that anyone else can do as much as he does.
However, it would be a good thing to have another powerful ally.
Gu Hang thinks highly of Robert and has high hopes for him.
Of course, if Gu Hang's idea was to be followed, then Robert would be better off staying in the Infinite Star Domain honestly, taking the Infinite Battle Group's hometown as the center, launching a military operation similar to the Alliance's Dark Side Expedition centered on the Spider Web Universe and the Eastern Universe, and expanding the territory in the Holy Territory of the Empire.
Instead of rushing to Holy Terra, it is better to manage the worlds in front of you step by step.
By then, even if Holy Terra was really finished and destroyed, and the Human Empire no longer existed, the Alliance would have saved half of the Dark Empire, and then it would depend on how much territory Robert could keep in the Holy Territory of the Empire.
At worst, we can work together and fight our way toward Holy Terra step by step to take back the human home planet.
Of course, the loss of Holy Terra would be of great significance and could lead to a more serious crisis, which Gu Hang also agreed with. Therefore, when Robert decided to launch this risky expedition to Terra, he did not object too seriously in the end.
And now that the expedition has begun, it not only carries Gu Hang's hope for an improvement in the situation in the Holy Land of the Empire, but also his own son is actually in it. Naturally, he will not ignore it at all.
The reason why the expeditionary force that set out from the Infinite Star Field has never gotten lost in the subspace is, in addition to the Emperor's blessing, of course, also due to a little help from Gu Hang.
But overall, there wasn’t enough that Gu Hang could do to help.
At the very least, it would be difficult for him to dispatch troops directly or to deliver supplies to the expeditionary ships.
The price is too high, even Gu Hang is unwilling to do that.
However, some other help can be provided to the expeditionary force through Gu Jing.
Especially some information content.
Robert has an extremely smart brain, but he needs a lot of information to base his decisions on.
Gu Hang can provide a lot of clues and knowledge about the subspace, evil gods, demons, psychic powers... As long as something happens, Gu Hang can generally know what is going on by just taking a look through Gu Jing's perspective.
Gu Jing himself understood it, and he told Robert himself; but there were many things Gu Jing didn't understand, even though he had gone through so many years of study and practice, after all, the ceiling of his strength was here, and he wouldn't understand until he reached a certain level.
Gu Hang would often tell him the information, and then he would tell Robert.
The information provided by Gu Hang helped Robert avoid many big pitfalls and indirectly saved the entire expeditionary force many times.
The same goes for what the dark elves did this time.
However, this time even Gu Hang was a little mistaken.
Just a little.
After all, the Eldar still have a terrifying foundation. After all, they were the overlords of the universe tens of thousands of years ago. After their destruction, they were still able to survive until today under the pursuit of Slaanesh. That really cannot be done without some trump cards.
Gu Hang did not realize what these dark elves were going to do when they first showed up. It was only after the formation was deployed that he took some time to analyze what this formation was for.
He predicted that the formation would take effect in eight hours, but in fact, it took only seven hours. The seven hours were delayed because a large number of formation nodes were destroyed.
However, there is one thing that Gu Hang had already analyzed, but he just didn't tell Gu Jing and Robert.
To destroy the Dark Eldar's subspace cutting formation, the critical number of nodes that need to be destroyed is half.
The reason why he didn't tell the two of them was because after Gu Hang analyzed the situation on the scene, he knew that it would be absolutely impossible for the human expeditionary force to achieve this goal.
In other words, it was a foregone conclusion that they were pulled between the curtains.
There was no way they could destroy half of the nodes within eight hours.
This means that it is a foregone conclusion that the entire expeditionary force will be dragged into the veil.
That's bullshit.
Did you say that this made the expeditionary force discouraged?
It would be better to let them maintain high morale and work hard to break through those nodes.
Every time a node is destroyed, it means that an Eldar army or Eldar ship is destroyed.
While they are trying to defend the nodes and delay their destruction, and are unable to make use of the Eldar's best flexibility and elusive means of movement, it would be best to kill more Eldar.
After the Eldar were killed, their souls would return to Commorra and they could be reborn. However, they would also have to undergo physical re-cultivation, which would take time. Moreover, the strength of the reborn Eldar would also be weakened for a long period of time, and it would take a lot of time and effort to regain their former peak.
For the Eldar, whose population is relatively small, the losses must have been considerable.
As for the fact that the Eldar were determined to complete their great strategy despite such huge losses... In Gu Hang's opinion, it was not really that unsolvable.
After realizing that it was inevitable that Robert and his expedition fleet would be pulled into the curtain, Gu Hang's thoughts shifted from how to prevent this from happening to how to take advantage of it.
The Alliance has dealt with the Dark Eldar before.
Before the Cataclysm, Dark Eldar pirates had often been active in several areas in the southern part of the Eastern Universe, and had been a chronic problem in that area for a long time. In addition, the trade routes between the Alliance and the Infinite Star Region were also often harassed by Eldar pirates.
Gu Hang learned that the so-called "prophecy" obtained by the Eldar was obtained from the captives of the Dark Eldar pirates.
Even taking advantage of this, the Alliance took the opportunity to fire several rounds into the Veil Gate when a group of Dark Eldar pirates opened their special veil gate that could allow them to escape from Comoros to the real universe.
Those shells must have landed inside Comoros, causing damage to a certain area.
Of course, if it were just those few shots, it wouldn't be critical.
The main reason was that Gu Hang took this opportunity to stuff some "private goods" into Comoros.
His Legion of Heroes.
Not many people sneaked in, and many were quickly caught, eliminated, and died back in Gu Hang's Kingdom of the Storm God.
However, what Gu Hang hoped was that after the heroic spirits representing part of his power were sent to Comoros, even if they did not exist for long, as long as they existed, Gu Hang could use the heroic spirits as navigation to find the exact location of Comoros.
Isn't the reason why the Dark Eldar are so powerful that no one can break into their lair, and they are the only ones who can take the initiative to attack and harass others?
If we can find their lair, or even find an opportunity to take the initiative to attack, capture or destroy Comoros, then humans will have the opportunity to completely destroy this annoying, 'fly'-like dark alien.
Gu Hang was not like some human rulers who held an absolute hatred for all non-human races. However, it would be great if he could completely destroy the Dark Eldar, a definite enemy of humanity.
It’s a pity that they do have some background.
Gu Hang could feel that his heroic spirits still existed, and he could even command their actions. However, Gu Hang could not invest more power into them, nor could he locate Comoros through these heroic spirits.
That's a bit magical.
Gu Hang didn't even know how these dark elves did it.
But it's not worth making a fuss about.
If the Dark Eldar's lair could be found so easily, and if Gu Hang could unscrupulously release his psychic power to Comoros through a few coordinates, then they would never be able to escape Slaanesh's pursuit for so many years.
Gu Hang didn't think that he was more powerful than Slaanesh. It was normal that Gu Hang couldn't do what even Slaanesh hadn't done yet.
However, Gu Hang never gave up his interest in Comoros.
After the Cataclysm and during the Dark Side Crusade, although Chaos was humanity's main enemy, the threat posed by the aliens never diminished.
As for aliens, the threats are mainly greenskins and void zerg, but occasionally, dark expeditions will encounter the dark eldar who stir up trouble.
Comoros itself does not produce any resources. Even if there are some rare greenhouse plantations, they are of little use, not to mention that it also requires massive amounts of minerals, metals, and energy... These things must be obtained from the real universe.
Or they could establish a Dark Eldar colony in the real universe and use slaves for production.
Or they could set up a pirate raiding team and go rob.
The Dark Eldar do both.
Colonization and plunder are the ways of survival for the Dark Eldar.
The Cataclysm also gave them an opportunity.
The human empire became unprecedentedly weak and divided, and their actions of plundering some planets, acquiring populations, and establishing colonies became smoother.
This will inevitably run into the Dark Side Expedition.
The Alliance, based on past experience in dealing with the Dark Eldar, also has a special action manual for combating this alien enemy.
When dealing with the Dark Eldar, the most important thing is to find the Veil Gate that connects the real universe and Commorra.
And every time the Curtain Spirit Gate is found and destroyed, Gu Hang's will will always descend and he will stuff some heroic spirits into it.
After entering, the heroic spirit was quite low-key and did not take the initiative to cause trouble.
They even concealed their human appearance - this was very simple, they were the embodiment of Gu Hang's power, the embodiment of the storm, and their human memories and appearance in their previous lives were secondary and were given by Gu Hang.
When necessary, it is convenient not to maintain the human appearance.
That is the appearance of an elemental creature whose appearance is a collection of pure storm energy.
Elemental creatures, or energy creatures, are rare in this universe, but they do exist, and some have even established civilizations.
Among the many slaves and mercenaries enslaved or employed by the Dark Eldar are these elemental creatures.
Gu Hang's Storm Spirits are lurking in Comoros in this appearance.
The overall number is not large, but Gu Hang does not expect that these just over 100,000 Storm Spirits disguised as elemental creatures can play an overly important role in the military.
Their most important job is to collect intelligence after entering the social system and institutions of the Dark Eldar, so that he can better understand the Veiled City of the Dark Eldar.
There are quite a few results. Gu Hang now has a much richer understanding of the Dark Eldar than before.
And there was an even more unexpected gain.
Elemental creatures seemed to have special uses for a certain family. As mercenaries, half of Gu Hang's Storm Heroes entered a medium-sized family called "Anyuan".
During this period, the Storm Elves, who were disguised as having a completely different way of thinking from ordinary carbon-based creatures, gathered some information through investigation. It seemed that the biggest supporter behind the "Dark Source" family was an important force among the Dark Eldar - the Witch Cult.
As one of the three pillars of the Dark Eldar, it is quite normal for the Witch Spirit Cult to support a family and make it serve them. Gu Hang also took this opportunity to let his Storm Heroic Spirits, through the Dark Source Family, have more contact with the Witch Spirit Cult behind them, in order to obtain higher-level and more core intelligence.
The whole process went more smoothly than expected. The witches who used supernatural powers were very fond of elemental creatures, which were precious mercenaries. The leader of the storm element, General Wind, was even unexpectedly received by the leader of the witch cult, known as the Old Woman.
This is a real big shot!
If one were to rank the bigwigs in Comoros according to their status, the old woman would definitely be in the top three.
It was also through her and the entire Witch Spirit Cult that the status of the storm creatures quickly rose, and they were able to access a lot of information that was originally difficult to access.
And right now, this information can come in handy.
Robert is still very capable.
Faced with such a huge change, he still managed to calm the entire fleet quickly and did not let the fleet remain in a state of panic for too long. As a result, the dark-skinned people who were sent back to their hometown together wanted to take this opportunity to attack the human fleet to gain a firm foothold, but they ended up suffering losses.
This is normal. Although these black-skinned expeditionary forces are elite, their numbers are small, and they suffered heavy losses when maintaining the magic circle before.
Seeing that they could not succeed and could not gain any advantage, they did not stay any longer and quickly evacuated.
Anyway, in their opinion, the human fleet that entered the curtain was already trapped in a jar and would be dealt with sooner or later.
If we cannot handle it right now, we can just withdraw first, and then gather the main force again, mobilize the cannon fodder and the forces of the major families, and then continue fighting.
Here, they have a constant supply of supplies, while the human soldiers are one less with each death and each bullet fired.
Taking advantage of this time, Robert gathered the scattered fleet together again and found a new target in the chaos.
That was what Gu Jing told him, the exact location of the Curtain Port in Comoros.
That is the common departure point for the Dark Eldar pirate fleet, and the place where the Veil Spirit Gate opens and closes. The Dark Eldar pirates use this place to open the Veil Spirit Gate that leads to various parts of the real universe, and conveniently travel between the real universe and the Veil.
As long as we can capture that place, humans can make use of the most important technology of the Dark Eldar!
