However, this outco is vastly different from the Alliance genuinely ensuring that every soldier can eat well. In contrast, Raymond Vis could clearly realize that what he was doing was just putting on a show when there was no other option.
Does eating well an they can fight?
As a seasoned commander, Raymond Vis’s answer is undoubtedly: Yes!
Eating well ans they can fight.
No matter how advanced the equipnt gets or how well-trained the soldiers are, they still need ample physical strength and a strong physique to support their tactical actions.
Simply ensuring the soldiers are full might maintain their stamina, but maintaining their physique would be a bit challenging without eating well.
Moreover, eating well boosts morale significantly. Alliance soldiers might complain about the ’slop,’ yet it doesn’t stop them from fighting valiantly. But feed them actual slop, and that would be a different story.
However, the most terrifying thing is the significance behind the phenonon of ensuring the soldiers eat well.
The productivity of the Alliance, the logistical support of the Alliance Army... these are the keys to victory.
Food supply is, of course, a crucial aspect of logistical supply. Warriors need weapons and equipnt to fight wars, but they also need to be well-fed. However, once basic food supply is ensured, the importance of food quality drops rapidly.
After all, compared to the quality of food, there are other more important things in military operations that need transportation.
And there’s no doubt that the Alliance’s allocation of military supplies is without issue. They even have enough surplus to ensure the soldiers’ tastes, even to the point of spoiling them.
If they can even ensure tastes, then there’s no need to ntion anything else.
...
After returning to the base camp once the important assault target at the front lines was resolved, Raymond Vis didn’t forget what happened beforehand.
He specifically went to take a look at what exactly the Alliance’s als were like.
It was in one of the Alliance’s divisions, where the soldiers ate. You could call it a field canteen.
And it wasn’t just one, nor was there just one style.
One food truck after another served as kitchens. To Raymond Vis, the chefs in logistics were hardly different from top restaurant chefs. They skillfully placed pot after pot of freshly made dishes on the tables. Each one
In that mont, if it weren’t for the surroundings being the wilderness, if it weren’t for the diners in military uniforms, Raymond Vis would really think he was in a food street.
All right, I’ve lost hope.
But at the sa ti, another thought started to sprout from this realization.
By now, he thoroughly understood what the Alliance had achieved over the past century after the Catastrophe Era.
The Expeditionary Force had given him full insight.
He had little doubt.
This couldn’t lie.
Looking at the state of mind and morale of the Alliance soldiers was proof enough; the fact that the Alliance controlled more than ten Cosmos Domains on the Dark Side of the Empire, nearly a third or half, proved how successful the Dark Side Expedition was.
In terms of legitimacy... what legitimacy? Achieving accomplishnts like this is the greatest legitimacy!
Raymond Vis had already had enough of Holy Terra.
...
Gu Hang had already been paying attention from the start of the Guard Star Campaign.
Establishing a passage to the other side of the Empire was of imnse strategic value.
And with the Saints Battle Group stationed there, it was all the better.
Without doubt, with the Seven Star Corridor fully under human control rather than being occupied by Chaos, it saved the Alliance Expeditionary Force a great deal of trouble.
If that wasn’t the case, and the seven stars were fully occupied, being so close to the Scarlet Scar, it would have been trapped there. If Chaos occupied it, within ten years, these seven worlds would beco semi-Subspace. To fight then would be akin to a Subspace expedition, with Demons spawning directly from the land, forcing the Western Expedition Army to exert the sa effort as the Oglia Campaign just to win, with heavy losses.
But now, a single advance fleet was enough to handle the situation.
Gu Hang’s orders had already been dispatched to the Western Command Center.
Yan Fangxu’s next critical task was to fortify the Seven Star Corridor. Simultaneously, he needed to focus on clearing the Mingshu Star Domain on the Dark Side linked to the Corridor, ensuring the stability of these worlds.
Subsequently, the Alliance’s administration would quickly follow up, implenting rapid alliances in the Mingshu Star Domain. With a strong military presence, this process should be relatively smooth. Massive investnts would follow, striving to turn the Mingshu Star Domain into a critical front-line military industrial area to provide close supplies to the Seven Star Corridor.
The ultimate goal is to reinforce the Seven Star Corridor as if it were an impregnable fortress, with seven Fortress Worlds in front, supported by the Saint’s capital in the rcifat Star Domain, and the Alliance-built Mingshu Star Domain at the rear, greatly enhancing its stability.
anwhile, after the Thunder Torch Tower in the Seven Stars is completed, Gu Hang would allocate part of his efforts to maintaining this passage.
Then, once the stabilization of the Seven Star Corridor is complete, the Alliance can consider using this corridor to bypass Scarlet Scar, transforming the Dark Side Expedition into a legitimate reclamation of the entire Empire and its territories.
As for whether this task will fall to the Western Expeditionary Force or if a new force should be ford specifically for this, that is sothing to be decided later.
The other pleasant surprise ca from within the Saints Battle Group itself.
When the Guard Star Campaign was nearing completion and the fourth advance fleet provided a batch of supplies to the Saints Battle Group and the Holy War Army free of charge, preparing to move deeper into the corridor, Raymond Vis proposed so conditions.
He hoped to sign a series of more in-depth cooperation agreents between the Saints Battle Group, as the protector of the rcifat Star Domain, and as the Living Saint of the National Church, with the Alliance and the Imperial Dark Side Managent Committee.
In na, of course, the Saints wouldn’t join the Alliance. But essentially, Raymond Vis’s preliminary intention was to join the Imperial Dark Side Managent Committee.
For this, they were even willing to accept the presence of Alliance administrators in the rcifat Star Domain; to accept Alliance investnt, even if it ant sharing control; they were willing to incorporate the Saints Battle Group, the twelve subgroups they rallied, and the so-called Holy War Army, which broke through Imperial law under the guise of the Battle Group Auxiliary Army, into the Alliance’s operational command system...
Of course, there were many details. Raymond Vis was not selling himself for free; he also had many demands. For instance, he required the Alliance’s substantial investnt in the rcifat Star Domain, guarantees for religion, investnt in fortifying the Seven Star Corridor, and subsequent planning for an expedition on the other side of the corridor, the so-called Imperial Holy Territory...
Gu Hang saw no reason to refuse any of these.
Many of the conditions Raymond Vis proposed were things the Alliance was already planning to do, just with a bit more intensity.
The additional investnt was a bargain for gaining the allegiance of a fledgling Battle Group.
This campaign, the Seven Star Corridor itself, was naturally the Alliance’s greatest demand, with its high strategic value.
The Saints Battle Group was Gu Hang’s next important target.
He had been considering how to win over this Battle Group as a breakthrough point.
But to his surprise, they ca knocking of their own accord.
Even in na, with this preliminary intention, the Saints were ’our own people.’
Gu Hang looked forward to seeing how the system would classify the Saints Battle Group in the battle group interface.
It was his first ti possibly having a fledgling Battle Group recognized by the system.
