After understanding Velon's intentions, Aurelia immediately ordered the army to advance at full speed, heading straight for the Valsalrian Army's capital planet!
Five days later, Aino came to see Velon again with a tired look on her face.
"Your Excellency Ambassador Sadira, please save us!" Aino was so anxious that her mouth was full of blisters. There was no other way. In the past five days, Aurelia's fleet had marched straight in and conquered four galaxies of two star fields.
Since the Krugerz Galaxy was the most prosperous star field of the Valsalrian Legion, it was densely covered with stargates. Although these stargates usually brought convenience to people's transportation and saved them from wasting a lot of time on interstellar travel, now that it was a time of war, these stargates had instead provided convenience to the Aurelian fleet. So much so that they were advancing at a speed of almost one star field a day.
Although the Valsalrian Legion organized some fleets to resist the invasion of the imperial army, the scattered forces composed of these local fleets could not stop the regular army under Aurelia's command at all. Their attacks were almost immediately defeated. Some fleets had even fled before they could even see the Aurelia army.
From Aurelia's point of view, her invasion this time wasn't waging a war at all, but merely an armed demonstration. Moreover, Aurelia's invasion this time was originally to buy time for Jiang Fei and attract the attention of the Development Team, so she didn't occupy those planets at all. In this way, her marching speed was even less of a hindrance.
In this way, in just five days, Aurelia's fleet was only three star fields away from the Valsalrian Army's capital planet. In less than a week, her army would arrive at the city!
"Hey! My people are now fighting with the Imperial Army in the Saar Corridor. They can't retreat at all! "Velon said, pretending to be troubled.
"But if this goes on, the Valsalrian Army will be finished!" Aino was also playing tricks at this time, because the Valsalrian Army's fleet was on the way to rescue at this time. Although they could not mobilize the players' troops, their own fleet still obeyed orders. It was just that these fleets were far away, so it would take some time to get back.
"Hmph! Trying to trick me? Do you think I don't know that you have already called back your fleet? " Velen snickered in his heart. In fact, he had already leaked the information about the Valsalrian Army's main fleet. At this time, these fleets that had just retreated from the battlefield were probably already ambushed!
"I'll try my best. Don't worry, Lord Aino." Although he was very disdainful, Velon still played along with Aino.
…
At this time, on Aurelia's flagship, the adjutant was discussing something with her. "Madam, these rebel battleships are very strange!"
"It's a bit strange indeed. These guys seem to be coming to their deaths in a certain rhythm!" Aurelia also frowned.
"Could it be that they are trying to express something? No! No one would use mass suicide as a hint to others. " The aide-de-camp shook his head. One had to know that a warship could carry hundreds or even thousands of people. Who would send dozens or even hundreds of warships to their deaths to send a signal?
"Oh!?" The adjutant's words enlightened Aurelia. Most people wouldn't be able to send a secret signal in this way, but Velon could!
"Get me the previous destruction records!" Aurelia immediately ordered.
"Yes!" The adjutant answered. Soon, a chart appeared in front of Aurelia.
"1 … 2 … 1 … 1 … 2 …" Aurelia looked at the kill record in front of her, as if she had an epiphany.
"Use this kill record as a password and decipher it!" Aurelia said to the adjutant.
"Madam, is this possible?" The adjutant had a puzzled expression on his face.
"Do as I say!" Aurelia ordered.
"Yes!" The adjutant saw that Aurelia was so serious, so he didn't dare to say anything more. He handed the kill data to a communications officer who specialized in this field and let him crack the password.
A few hours later, the adjutant came to Aurelia with a piece of paper with a shocked face. "Madam Commander, the password has been cracked!"
"Let me see it!" Aurelia said immediately.
"Yes!" The adjutant immediately handed the piece of paper to her.
Taking the paper with the cracked content, Aurelia was also shocked. The size of the Valsalrian Army's reinforcements, as well as the route and time of arrival were written on it!
"Madam, do we have a spy among the Valsalrian Empire's higher-ups?" The adjutant asked in shock. If this was true, then the imperial army's agent within the Valsalrian Army had to be at a very high level to be able to get such confidential information and transmit it in such a way.
"Adjust the route and prepare for battle!" Aurelia didn't explain to the adjutant. She didn't want to and didn't have the time to explain. According to the time and place shown on the intelligence, the enemy's reinforcements were about to arrive. Aurelia had to lead the fleet to a specific area immediately to accurately complete the ambush.
"Yes! Madam! " The adjutant was also excited. Based on Aurelia's reaction, he was now very sure that there was indeed a spy among the Valsalrian Army's higher-ups, and it was an ace spy!
In fact, the adjutant didn't know that his so-called ace spy was Velon! As the manager of this game, Velon had insight into almost everything in the universe, so it wasn't surprising that he had information about the Valsalrian Army's reinforcements. Since he also had the authority to issue missions, it wasn't difficult for him to send a small number of "players" to their deaths in a specific formation at a specific time.
A few hours later, Aurelia's fleet arrived at the designated location. This was a warp point where the Valsalrian reinforcements were rushing back. According to the intelligence, the Valsalrian reinforcements would arrive here in half an hour.
Then, Aurelia began to adjust the fleet's formation. All the main battleships surrounded the warp point in a hemispherical formation, and began to charge the main cannons when the enemy arrived in two minutes.
A minute and a half later, Aurelia's fleet was in position. At this time, the warp point had become the focus of Aurelia's fleet's firepower. As soon as the enemy appeared, they would suffer a devastating blow.
As time passed, a white light flashed. The first spaceship rushed out of the dimensional space and arrived at the warp point, followed by the second, the third …
Because this was the hinterland of the Valsalrian Army, and it was not in the same direction as Aurelia's fleet, the Valsalrian Army's fleet didn't expect to encounter the enemy here. So, in order to save time, they didn't send out scout ships before each warp. This caused the unprepared Valsalrian fleet to plunge into Aurelia's encirclement.
