Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Everyone was looking for Ling Xiao. The Federation's military and the three divisions were also looking for him.
"General, we still haven't received any news from the general." Jin Anlong walked into Qi Yaoyang's office with a worried expression.
"Don't worry about the general. We'll fight our own battles." Qi Yaoyang didn't care about this. Since he already had the plan, unless Ling Xiao gave him new orders, he would follow the plan. Hence, whether Ling Xiao was here or not wasn't important to him.
"But the commander-in-chief is missing. We can't do anything about it." Jin Anlong said uneasily. He was used to keeping in touch with the commander-in-chief. This gave him confidence.
"This is your first time working with the general. That's why you don't understand. This is the general's way of doing things. You just have to get used to it." Qi Yaoyang laughed and patted Jin Anlong's shoulder to calm him down.
'Get used to it? How can I get used to it? ' Jin Anlong thought to himself. He had been fighting in wars for half his life. This was the first time he met a commander-in-chief who didn't care about anything and even went missing. Was this something a commander-in-chief should do? Didn't he know that his subordinates would be worried?
"How's our progress?" Qi Yaoyang knew that Jin Anlong couldn't accept Ling Xiao being such an irresponsible commander-in-chief. Hence, he changed the topic.
Jin Anlong regained his composure and replied seriously, "We're proceeding according to the plan. We didn't encounter any difficulties."
Jin Anlong frowned. "I feel that Twilight shouldn't be fighting with all their might." He was happy that they didn't encounter any difficulties but at the same time, he felt uneasy. This was a battle that concerned the survival of their country. Shouldn't they be fighting with all their might? Why wasn't Twilight's army as big as he expected?
"Indeed," Qi Yaoyang agreed.
Jin Anlong raised his head in shock. He looked at Qi Yaoyang and waited for his general to explain.
"Twilight and I are old rivals. They are as ruthless as us." Although Qi Yaoyang didn't have a good impression of Twilight, he still acknowledged their fighting spirit.
At this point, he turned on his optical computer. A virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of him and Jin Anlong. The screen showed the scene of the intense battle on the frontlines.
"Although there are five armies fighting with us, other than the Shangye Army, which is a famous interstellar army, the others are the garrison armies of the surrounding planets. Compared to the interstellar army, their strength is several levels lower." Qi Yaoyang said, "It seems like there are a lot of people, but the pressure they give us is only equivalent to the power of two intergalactic legions. It might not even be as strong as them."
Jin Anlong nodded. This was also the reason why he felt uneasy. Although the Twilight Empire's interstellar legions were not as many as the Federation's, with only 23, there were still as many as nine. But now, only three legions had appeared. The other two were the Jingyou Army and the Puxian Army, which were facing off against the 7th Legion. The remaining six legions didn't appear. They didn't know if they were hiding beside the 13th Division or if they had other arrangements.
"I think that there should be another intergalactic legion from Twilight hiding here. They should be waiting for something." Qi Yaoyang frowned. It wouldn't be a good thing if they didn't lure this intergalactic legion out as soon as possible.
"Could it be that Twilight is guarding against the 23rd Division? They also have to guard against the 4th Division that we are holding back. "Jin Anlong suggested.
"One intergalactic legion and a few garrison armies should be enough to deal with the 4th Division," Qi Yaoyang replied. In other words, one intergalactic legion was enough to support the 23rd Division.
"But they don't know that the 4th Division is the one that is holding back. The 23rd Division is the one that disappeared." Jin Anlong fell into deep thought. He muttered, "Or perhaps, those intergalactic legions are all here and they are just waiting for the 23rd Division to join the battle?"
"If they think that the 23rd Division is behind us, they might have left two more intergalactic legions here. The remaining two intergalactic legions might be at these two places to provide cover for the 4th Division. No matter where the 4th Division appears, they would be able to arrive immediately and surround them." Qi Yaoyang pointed at two spots on the star chart of the Twilight Empire.
Suddenly, he had an idea. "But what if they know that the 4th Division is the one that is holding them back?"
"How is that possible?" Jin Anlong refuted.
"Why not?" Qi Yaoyang raised his eyebrows and looked at Jin Anlong.
Facing Qi Yaoyang's piercing gaze, Jin Anlong's heart started to waver. He struggled to reply, "Only the higher-ups of the 23rd Division and the 4th Division know about the exchange plan. We only found out about it not long before the battle started. Twilight wouldn't be able to get hold of such top secret information so quickly. Yes, that's right. "
Jin Anlong's last sentence was to convince himself to believe in his own judgment.
"What if someone purposely leaked the information?" Qi Yaoyang asked calmly.
"Impossible!" Jin Anlong didn't want to believe it.
"Even a spy from Twilight can become a general of the Federation. What else is impossible?" Qi Yaoyang sneered.
"What do you mean?" Jin Anlong's expression turned serious.
"We have to use the worst-case scenario to predict what will happen. If Twilight knows that the 4th Division is the one that is holding them back and the 23rd Division is the one that disappeared, what will they do?" Qi Yaoyang stared at the virtual screen and thought about it seriously.
"They might only leave one intergalactic legion here. The other five intergalactic legions will search for the 23rd Division and surround them." Qi Yaoyang slammed his fist on the table. If it was him, he would definitely do that. As long as he could kill the commander of the army and the idol of the Federation, Twilight would definitely win this battle.
Even if the Federation wanted to attack again, Caesar wouldn't allow it. Twilight used their strength to prove that they could deal a heavy blow to the Federation. Caesar would feel that Twilight was still useful to them and wouldn't give up on them.
On the other hand, the Federation's morale would plummet because of Ling Xiao's failure. They might not even be able to recover from this setback.
"The reason why Twilight didn't attack us is because they are searching for Ling Xiao and his 23rd Division. I'm afraid that two of the three mecha lords aren't here," Qi Yaoyang continued.
"What should we do?" His general's analysis made sense. Jin Anlong couldn't help but feel worried. He couldn't help but ask anxiously.
"Initially, I didn't want to trouble King Muqi. Now, it seems that we need to make a move on him. I hope that we can force the three mecha lords out!" Qi Yaoyang said decisively. If they delayed the three mecha lords, even if Ling Xiao was surrounded by five intergalactic legions, with his identity as a god-class operator, he would be able to open a path and lead his division to escape.
