The commanders from Cui Lan Star, Moon Star, and Black Fla Star also gathered here for a eting.
"Simanken."
At this mont, a burly man with a rugged face and a beard excitedly stepped forward and shouted.
"Aliku, long ti no see!"
Simanken responded with a smile as he looked at the man in front of him.
"It’s been almost two years since we last t. I didn’t expect to bump into you here. We must catch up later."
"No problem. How’s the battle going on your side?"
Simanken asked with a smile.
"Don’t even ntion it. This war is really frustrating. We clearly won the defense line on Moon Star, yet we’re ordered to retreat. What’s the point of our desperate defense then?"
"Stop complaining. Winning is the only way to retreat; otherwise, you wouldn’t even have the option to. Did you see the commanders from Sky Do City? They retreated with scars, and many were killed when pursued by the Dark Star Empire. If it weren’t for the subsequent reinforcents, who knows how many more would have died."
"That’s tragic. I heard Mo Xiu was seriously injured. Is it true or false?"
"It’s true. Didn’t you notice he didn’t even attend the eting?"
"Well, how’s your Cui Lan Star Defense Line holding against the chanical Clan?"
"They’re tough, but not as fierce as when we retreated from the Shabask Kingdom."
"Oh, by the way! I heard Admiral Hayes captured a VI-type Heroic Level Chilami. Is it true?"
"Of course, it’s true."
"That’s amazing. People used to say Hayes got his position through backdoor deals, but he turned out to be formidable."
"Ahem, is that how you express yourself?"
"Haha, slip of the tongue!"
"But this ti, the most remarkable one isn’t Admiral Hayes, but Admiral Su Ming! Without him, the Moon Star Defense Line wouldn’t have succeeded."
"I know about that. His subordinate chas are truly advanced. There are over a dozen V Generation chas, and the number of Fake V Generation and IV Generation chas is just astonishing!"
"That’s nothing. The most impressive thing was the Star Destroyer that appeared later. Though it looked worn out, its combat power was astonishingly overwhelming. I think it’s even more impressive than the World-purifying Flower!"
"Exactly, I’ve seen the circulating video online. With one shot, the chanical Gem of the Divine Authority Star was shattered. If it hadn’t been for the VI-type fortress Chilami intervening at that crucial mont, the Divine Authority Star would have been finished!"
...
While everyone was discussing.
The conference room door was pushed open.
Long Chen entered with Long Ying, Angulat, Hayes, Su Ming, and others.
"Lord Long Chen and his people have arrived!"
...
The nurous commanders were taken aback upon seeing them and began to speak.
Commander Alekde approached and conversed with Long Chen.
"You’ve worked hard!"
"It’s nothing."
Long Chen replied with a smile.
At this mont, Gabres and General Sigurd walked up to Su Ming and spoke.
"Su Ming!"
"Gabres, Sigurd!"
Su Ming greeted them with a smile.
"You’re really sothing!"
Gabres playfully punched Su Ming’s chest and teased him.
"Huh? What did I do?"
Su Ming was taken aback and curiously asked.
"It’s nothing, Gabres just feels like you’re not being considerate enough. You have your hands on so many elite troops, but you didn’t co to support the Cui Lan Star Defense Line; instead, you went to the flanks. It seems like you’ve grown distant."
Sigurd said with a playful smile.
"Don’t say that. You guys are the gatekeepers in the center; why would you need there?"
Su Ming laughed in response.
"Who said we don’t need you? If you were here, would I need to stay behind the defense line? The three of us could’ve dealt with Aliku directly."
Gabres got increasingly frustrated as he thought about it.
"Haha, next ti we have a chance, for sure!"
Su Ming awkwardly agreed.
"Alright, it’s settled then!"
Gabres said directly to Su Ming.
"Uh, but..."
Su Ming was at a loss, feeling cornered by the conversation.
At this point, after finishing his conversation with Long Chen, Commander Alekde walked towards the conference table.
Everyone saw this and proceeded to their respective seats.
Su Ming and others also moved to the front row and took their seats.
Commander Alekde then stepped onto the council platform, his expression serious, and began to speak.
"Everyone’s here, so the eting will officially begin. I know many of you present are dissatisfied with this tactical retreat, but I urge you to overco and adjust. Don’t let it affect future deploynts! We’re facing a critically severe situation now, understood?"
"Understood!"
Everyone responded promptly.
"Good. Now I’ll explain our current situation. The defense line we are retreating to consists of Earth Fla Star, Steel Rock Star, and Guangqi Star, forming our internal line of defense. This is our last line of defense. If the enemy breaches any point, they can directly use it as a jumping-off point to attack the Third Planet. Hence, we have no way back and must fight to the last stand!"
Alekde stated gravely.
"Understood!"
Su Ming and others replied solemnly.
In fact, Commander Alekde was right. If this defense line were breached again, the next step would indeed be the defense of the Third Planet.
"Alright, now let’s allocate our defensive forces. First, the Moon Star Defense Line units will retreat to guard the Guangqi Star Defense Line! Units returning from Sky Do City will guard the Steel Rock Star Defense Line, and Earth Fla Star will be defended by leading the First Legion!"
Commander Alekde outlined the general allocation.
"No problem!"
Long Chen and General Helagar replied solemnly.
The overall allocation was more or less what they had anticipated.
