Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 1169 Hostage Crisis
"As I mentioned before, the human legion has begun to implement a new combat plan. Although we have launched a counterattack on some fronts, in the overall situation, the human legion will retreat steadily, and by controlling the speed of retreat Stabilize the situation on the battlefield. According to our estimation, the situation on the battlefield will not get out of control within the next three to six months. But we are not sure how long it can last after that.” Yu Minghui paused slightly After a while, he said, "We will try our best to get in touch with Yang Yi, but we can't have too much hope for it. In fact, even if Yang Yi comes back, it may not be able to solve this trouble."

"So, this is an unsolvable dilemma?"

"you can say it this way."

"But……"

"In the previous battle, we captured some of the army commanders of the Wild Beasts, and obtained some valuable information through interrogation. According to our inference, the information provided by King Mo Hui is not wrong, and he is right We really don’t know much about the backup plan. Therefore, we can get very limited help from the information he provided, at least we can’t find those Kunyang warriors.” Yu Minghui paused for a while before saying, “In other words, I'm afraid we have to prepare for the worst, so as not to be caught off guard. Of course, what to do depends on the specific situation. Judging from the current situation, the first thing we need to ensure is the communication line between the northern region and the southern region. "

Queen Kang Sheng sighed and said, "So, what should we do?"

"There are choices, but there are also sacrifices."

"What do you mean?"

"Because of the limited force in hand, it is impossible for us to keep all the star systems in the northern region, or even most of the star systems. According to our speculation, 1 human soldiers with sacred weapons, especially the 30 Many human fighters who have obtained the emperor-level fighters are confident enough to complete the task, at least able to prevent the Kunyang fighters from causing devastating damage. Although I have never underestimated the fighters of the Jijing clan, but limited by my own strength, Especially in the absence of effective means, I am afraid that the probability of success will not be too high, at most 20%. Based on this, we can probably save [-] star systems. Because some star systems have extremely important value, not only The living space of the Human Federation also has special significance for the Masons and the Dumen, so we can save up to [-] star systems in addition to these star systems that must be preserved." Yu Minghui took a long breath and said, "My opinion is to determine the star systems that need to be protected based on the current main routes and considerations for the execution of the escape operation. As for the other star systems, we can only pray that the warriors of the Kunyang tribe can wake up in time come over."

"Is this the only way?"

Yu Minghui nodded slightly, and said, "Of course, if Your Majesty has a better solution, you can bring it up and we can discuss it again."

Queen Kang Sheng smiled wryly, what can she do?
In fact, when Yu Minghui mentioned giving up, she had already guessed the result.Of course, this is the most effective method currently available. Although the result is not very ideal, because it means that most of the star systems in the northern region must be abandoned, and it also means that disasters will be inevitable. But in the short term, This is also the only option, because only in this way can we buy the time needed to escape.

"If Your Majesty has no other opinion..."

"What about the inhabitants of these star systems?"

"resident?"

Queen Kang Sheng was slightly taken aback, and said: "As far as I know, there are quite a few colonists of the Bingyu clan in some star systems in the northern region. In addition, in order to win over other civilizations, the Kunyang clan Just make a promise to allow those civilizations that sent troops to the war to settle and mine resources in the northern region. Although I don’t have first-hand information now, there must be many residents in these star systems.”

"Obviously, we can't save everyone, and it can't be blamed on us."

"But we can't just do nothing."

"Your Majesty, what do you think we should do, or what can we do for these people?"

Queen Kang Sheng was a little speechless, and didn't know what to say for a while.

At this time, an elder hurriedly walked up to Queen Kang Sheng and whispered something in her ear, and Queen Kang Sheng's brows were immediately locked together.In the projection display area, Yu Minghui's expression also changed, and it seemed that he had just received the news.

"Your Majesty, we have just received the news."

"I have also received the news." Queen Kang Sheng said with a long sigh, "Obviously, it is not the problem of the residents, but the problem of about one billion extreme people."

"Actually, that's not a problem."

"I admit that we are not capable of saving the residents of those star systems, but I will never joke about the lives of billions of people." Queen Kang Sheng gritted her teeth and said, "In any case, they have made a huge Sacrifice should not make them pay a greater price."

"His Majesty……"

"As for the plan you mentioned at the beginning, I have no right and no reason to oppose it. All I hope is to give me some time, some time for these billion extreme people." Queen Kang Sheng took a long breath and said , "For human soldiers, especially the more than 1 human soldiers who have holy artifacts and emperor-level fighters, it is not difficult to control a certain star system. If you don't object, they can control the most critical to ensure that no matter what happens, the connection between our extreme tribe and the human federation will not be interrupted, and it will not affect the escape operation. I am the queen of the extreme tribe, and I have the responsibility and obligation to help my people Get out of this situation. This is my only request, and it is the last one. Whatever the final outcome, I will accept it.”

"Up to three months." Yu Minghui also sighed before saying, "I asked Yu Jingcheng and the others to stay and assist His Majesty in rescuing the prisoners of the Jijing clan."

"Thank you."

"It should be me thanking His Majesty, after all, it is His Majesty's people who were tortured."

Queen Kang Sheng nodded slightly and didn't say anything more.Yu Minghui didn't bother anymore, and took the initiative to close the communication line with Queen Kang Sheng.

At the beginning, the elder sent the news that the prisoners of war of the Jijing tribe were taken hostage by the enemy, and they used this to coerce the Jijing tribe to withdraw from the war immediately.

In fact, Queen Kang Sheng had already expected this matter, and she also made many arrangements.

Because there was no attack, before this, the legions mobilized by the Jijing tribe, especially those powerful ones, all participated in the rescue of the prisoners of war.Because they killed the Beast God King and made King Mo Hui surrender, the Jijing clan managed to rescue most of the prisoners.However, after the Jijing tribe formally joined the war, there were too many tribesmen who stayed outside the southern region and fell into the hands of the enemy.According to the preliminary statistics of the Jijing tribe, there are about 1000 billion people, including more than 100 billion military personnel.Although through negotiations and other means, the Extreme Realm has allowed other civilizations to release and repatriate non-combatants, but there are still many Extreme Realm warriors who have become prisoners of war.

The problem is, how many soldiers have become prisoners of war in the hands of the enemy, Queen Kang Sheng does not know, and no one can figure it out.

Only one thing is certain, that will not be too little.

Prior to this, some elders had suggested that they should find a way to rescue these captured soldiers as soon as possible. After all, they were all members of the Extreme Realm clan, and as long as the situation deteriorated, they would be used by the enemy.Queen Kang Sheng also agreed to the proposal of these elders, but due to time constraints, it was obviously impossible to launch a rescue operation in time.It can even be said that the Jijing tribe doesn't even know where these captured fighters are being held.

Now, the thing that worried Queen Kang Sheng the most happened.

The one who made the threat was Arende, whom she met in the native star system of the Wild Beasts, and it has been confirmed, at least in part, that Alente has at least one hundred Legion warriors from the Extreme Realm, and There are about a hundred times as many civilians, and the total number will not be less than [-] million.Although there are not as many as Alente claimed, that is, there are not a billion, but [-] million soldiers and civilians of the Extreme Realm are enough to make Queen Kang Sheng worry.

Abandon these compatriots?

Even if this is an inevitable result, it is impossible for Queen Kang Sheng to give up directly, at least not without making any efforts.

The key is not quantity, but attitude.

Compared to the total population of the Extreme Realm Clan, let alone [-] million, even a billion is not much.The problem is that they all responded to the queen's call, and left their homes for the benefit of the Jijing tribe, and went to strange places to cooperate with strangers, and only then did they have their current encounters.If Queen Kang Sheng abandoned them without doing anything, what would the other clansmen think, and how would they treat Queen Kang Sheng?

You know, if only relying on strength, Queen Kang Sheng will definitely not be able to make the Jijing people reach their ideal state.

What's more, to leave the Southern Alpha galaxy in the future requires the concerted efforts of all the clansmen.If you don't even have the most basic trust, how can you work together?If civil strife breaks out because of this, even if it is suppressed in time, the impact will definitely not be eliminated quickly.

In fact, Yu Minghui also realized this, otherwise Queen Kang Sheng would not have been given three months.

Don't forget, in the escape plan proposed by Yu Hongxing, the Jijing people are the main participants, and they even undertake more work than the Human Federation.Without the assistance of the Extreme Race, the Human Federation can at best protect itself, and it certainly cannot help other civilizations escape from the Southern Alpha Galaxy.Therefore, it is extremely important to ensure the stability and unity of the extreme group, even if it will delay some time and lead to the destruction of more star systems.

So, is three months enough?
Queen Kang Sheng didn't think so much at all. Immediately after the communication was over, she summoned all the elders and contacted Yu Jingcheng and others who stayed behind to assist her.

Arende just issued a threat, because there is no more information, so Queen Kang Sheng has no idea how to rescue those people.
