Fadis sat on his throne and closed his eyes to meditate.
Fadis decided to take charge of the expedition himself, mainly for the sake of Long Fei.
From the beginning, Fadis wanted to recruit Long Fei, but unfortunately the two of them did not agree with each other.
Originally, Fadis did not want to conflict with Long Fei.
However, the death of the eldest son and his induction of Long Fei's powerful spiritual energy.
Fadis changed his attitude.
Fadis will change his attitude, mainly because he is worried that one day if he dies, Long Fei will be detrimental to his empire and children. This is an issue that he must carefully consider.
Fadis knew that Long Fei's spiritual power was no less powerful than Long Fei's. If it had been more than ten or twenty years ago this time, Fadis would not have been too worried.
But at this moment, Fadis knew that his life would not last long, and none of his descendants had the same mental power as him, or even came close to him.
Long Fei is only in his early 30s. He still has a lot of time and room for improvement, but Fadis' time is running out.
Now, the Dion Empire is handed over to the second son so that he can exercise his power as emperor.
Fadis cannot give Long Fei another chance to grow. Once he grows again, he believes that he will not be able to overpower Long Fei.
Taking advantage of the fact that he and Long Fei were equally mentally powerful, Fadis decided to kill Long Fei. Even if he couldn't kill him, he would die with him.
Even if he and Long Fei died together, Julius, the number one knight, could still fully support his second-in-command, Ye Li Shao De, and also be able to intimidate those nobles who were dissatisfied with Ye Li Shao De.
Yelishaud was not even as good as his two brothers in terms of mental strength, but his ability to govern the country and lead battles was much better than his two brothers.
Fadis even made his own edict, and if he died in battle, Yelishaud would be the next emperor.
At that time, Fadis would set up an annihilation army and let Lao San and Manius attack the Anglo-Saxon Republic, with the purpose of driving them away.
Especially Manius, Fadis has been trying to get rid of him. In addition to his family, this guy has 1/3 of the entire army of the Dion Empire under his control. In addition, Manius has not done anything to feel sorry for him.
Fadis really has no way to deal with matters related to the country.
So the only way was to drive him away. By then he would be killed in battle. Manius, who was far away in the Anglo-Saxon Republic, rushed to bring back the third child. The second child was already sitting on his throne and already in dust.
It's settled.
The talents around Yelishaud can also handle all internal problems.
Although the massacre of compatriots caused some tears in the country, Yelishaud comforted and repaired some of the tears, so that Fadis could safely lead the expedition.
Julius entered the office at this time, greeted Fadis and said, "Your Majesty, your condition is still not suitable for a personal expedition. It is better to let the minister come. Your Majesty, you should come back and clear the obstacles for the second prince."
"Julius, I understand your concern and want to share my worries, but you also understand that in your current state, your mental strength is not as good as Long Fei's."
Julius lowered his head. During the unification battle of Mars, he had suffered a serious injury, which caused his mental strength to no longer improve. His mental strength was indeed not as good as Long Fei's.
If he fights against Long Fei, his mental power will definitely be suppressed by Long Fei.
In the entire Dion Empire, it is true that only the Emperor can compete with him, but this battle will definitely shorten His Majesty's lifespan again, and he may even be defeated at the hands of Long Fei in the battle.
Once His Majesty is defeated, it will definitely cause a comprehensive attack on the Dion Empire, and the entire army may even lose its will to fight.
Your Majesty is the spiritual pillar of the Dion Army.
Julius now only hopes that His Majesty the Emperor must win and cannot be defeated, otherwise His Majesty the Emperor's ideal will come to an end.
Fadis stood up and asked: "How many days will it take to reach the destination?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, the troops from the front will arrive in three days, but..."
"Just what?"
"Our advance reconnaissance force discovered that the reconnaissance forces of the United Army and Tianyi Mercenary Group were also investigating our troops, and we found that the Tianyi Mercenary Group also gathered many troops. It is estimated that these troops will resist our entry
Colonial District No. 5.”
"It looks like we're going to have a tough fight."
"Your Majesty, we have information. Long Fei also went out personally, and also brought his seven directly affiliated troops."
"He knows that in this battle, he and I will have a battle, and my battle with him will definitely affect the subsequent trends on the battlefield."
"Your Majesty, the generals and I have a suggestion."
"tell me the story."
"First of all, it must be explained that some troops of the Tianyi Mercenary Group are dispersed. Their purpose may be to outflank us, so we must also disperse some troops. In addition to preventing their purpose, we should also let some of them
Troops can conduct disruption at other locations to increase pressure on them."
"Well, I'll just follow your suggestions."
On March 29, Year 125 of the Universe, there were already battles taking place in some locations outside the area of Colony No. 5.
These battles were fought between the Dion Army and the Tianyi Mercenary Group or the United Army.
The United Army was completely suppressed by the Dion Army as always.
Many high-ranking officials of the United Army knew clearly that they could not defeat the Dion Army, especially the troops led by the Emperor himself, so why did they still fight and block it like an egg against a stone?
The main reason was that they understood that if the Tianyi mercenary group was defeated, then their combined army would not need to fight any more and could simply surrender.
Therefore, the senior leaders of the United Army understood that they could not stay away from this battle and tried their best to consume and delay Dion's army.
Location a is outside the junction of Colonial Areas No. 4 and 5. The United Army's corps-level fleet fought with the brigade-level fleet of the Dion Army's advance force.
The former was more than three times more numerous than its opponent, but was still defeated by Dion's army. In the end, less than 10% of the United Army's troops were left and retreated in embarrassment.
However, the advance force of Dion's army defeated the enemy at a cost of 50%.
However, whether it is the United Army or the Tianyi Mercenary Group, this at least consumes the strength of the Dion Army.
At location b, the outermost location outside the No. 5 colony area, a battle broke out between the Tianyi mercenary group and the reconnaissance force of the Dion Army.
Both are regiment-level fleets. The number of battleships between the two is equivalent, but in terms of transportation, the Dion warship is larger and superior in transportation.
Of the two sides, the Dion army has more MS and mobile fortresses, although the Tianyi mercenary group has gained the upper hand by relying on mobile drill missiles and Minov particle missiles.
However, the effect of Minov particle missiles is not as ideal as before, and Minov particles cannot paralyze the Dion Army's automatic operating system as before.
Since the Dion Army developed anti-Minov particle devices and coerced colonists into the battlefield, the effectiveness of Minov particles has been reduced.
In the end, the Tianyi mercenary group won, but at the cost of more than 70% of the losses. Dion's army was completely wiped out and the result was a tragic victory. Less than 30% of the Tianyi regiment-level fleet was left to withdraw to the 12th branch base.
Location c is also somewhere outside the No. 5 colony area. The Tianyi Mercenary Group and the Dion Army are fighting. Both are the same brigade-level fleet.
The winner of this battle was the Dion Army. At the cost of over 80% losses, the Dion Army wiped out more than 95% of the enemy's troops, leaving less than 5% of the Tianyi Mercenary Group's brigade-level fleet to retreat in embarrassment.
There were even battles at many locations.
But no matter where they fight, the odds of winning between the Tianyi Mercenary Group and the Dion Army are almost 50-50.
The two sides were almost unlucky at the right time, place, and people, because the battle location was not at the home court of either side, so the two sides could be said to have fought at a 55-50 pace.
However, in almost all battles between the Dion Army and the United Army, the former won, with the most losses being only about 50%. Some even lost less than 20% before annihilating or driving away the United Army.
