On Thatchers' line of defense, the two warring parties seemed to have a tacit understanding and ceased fire at the same time.
One second there was still a fierce fight to the death, but the next second the entire star field returned to silence.
The coalition forces of Zola and Liberty still have 160 billion battleships left at this moment, while the coalition forces of Xio and Vera still have more than 230 billion battleships. It is obvious that after these days of fighting, the coalition forces of Zola and Liberty have obviously lost more than 160 billion battleships.
Much more.
Regarding this ceasefire, the commanders in the Vera Alliance fleet were quite resentful.
It's obvious that we have an absolute advantage!
Obviously if you work harder you can annihilate the opponent!
But why a ceasefire?
The order from leader Virto left everyone completely confused.
But no matter how hard you think about it, no matter how reluctant you are, as a soldier you still have to obey orders.
A ceasefire is just the first order issued from above.
The second order is to surround the opponent, order it to shut down the battleship's weapons, engines and other key systems, and prepare to surrender.
Soon, more than 230 billion warships from Vera and Xio surrounded them, and at the same time sent messages, ordering the other side to immediately shut down all key systems on the warships.
Zola and the free coalition forces had obviously received the order from above, did not make any resistance, and carried out the request in full compliance with the other party's requirements.
A total of 160 billion warships, except for the life support system, have shut down all other systems at this moment.
One by one, the warships seemed to be paralyzed, completely motionless and stopped in the void.
"What the hell kind of order is this from above? We are obviously going to win and can completely annihilate the other side. Now we have to accept the other side's surrender so that the other side can go back?"
General Alfred was extremely unhappy. As the general of the entire defense line, he saw clearly that as long as he had at most two months, he would definitely be able to annihilate the entire opponent and not even one of them could escape!
However, in such a good situation, the superiors actually ordered a ceasefire and were prepared to accept the surrender of the other party?
Okay, I accept the surrender of the other party. This is not much different from total annihilation.
But after the opponent surrenders, and then lets the opponent go back, what the hell is going on?
Just as General Alfred was complaining crazily, the last batch of local fleets were driven over, and after arriving here, they were also ordered to shut down the warships.
Now, Zola and the Free Alliance, a total of 160 billion warships have been hit together. This scene is like the abandoned warship storage yard established by various civilizations in space, one by one, all crowded together.
In a very small space, it just stopped quietly in the void.
On its periphery, there are more than 230 billion warships surrounding it.
"General Alfred, leader Wiltor has sent the latest order, the highest level, you need to check it in person!"
"Um?"
It is said that in just a few years, Alfred has received the highest level of orders three times.
The first time was a general mobilization order from the Vera Federation, and the second time was for him to cooperate with the Xio Alliance army to launch a full-scale counterattack.
Now, not many days have passed, and here comes the third highest-level order. When did this highest-level order become so worthless?
Complaints being complained, Alfred immediately started operating his command terminal and checking the commands.
But after he read the order, his breathing suddenly became rapid.
"Hahahahaha!"
Suddenly, without warning, Alfred started laughing wildly.
This made the adjutant on the side completely confused.
What order did my commander receive? Why did it become like this after reading the order? Should I ask the psychotherapist in the battle star to come to the command center?
"General Alfred?"
"Um?"
Alfred, who was still laughing crazily, heard his adjutant calling him from the side. He turned around and saw the confused adjutant. He immediately understood what his adjutant was thinking.
!
"Don't panic, I'm not crazy, just read this order!"
The highest-level command does not mean that no one else can know except Alfred. In fact, it only limits the command to be opened by Alfred to prevent the content of the command from being leaked.
When the adjutant saw the order in Alfred's terminal, his eyes widened with disbelief on his face!
At the same time, he also understood why Alfred suddenly laughed like crazy!
Alfred was originally very dissatisfied because of the request from above to cease fire and accept the other party's surrender, but now that he saw this order, he realized that everything was just a conspiracy by the leader!
Pretend to make peace with the other party, ask the other party to surrender, and promise to let its fleet go back, but the prerequisite is that all the weapons and engines on the warship must be shut down and surrendered first!
It's a good idea to surrender first and let the other party disarm themselves obediently!
Alfred originally believed that even if he had the advantage, he might still have to lose 70-80 billion battleships in the end to completely annihilate the opponent!
But now that Vertor has been so messed up, it seems that the opponent can be destroyed without losing any more warships!
Leader, this is really insidious, but I like it!
"General Alfred, are we doing this?"
"Shut up, what do you think interstellar war is? What do you think the collision between civilizations is? Is it just children's play house?"
Alfred looked at his adjutant with a look of hatred on his face!
"Yes, General Alfred, I am naive!"
The adjutant, who realized the problem in his words just now, also said immediately.
In response, Alfred finally nodded with satisfaction and then continued.
"You convey this order to the fleet commanders and tell them that this operation will officially begin in ten minutes and the entire operation will be completed within three minutes!"
"Yes, General Alfred!"
Ten minutes later, the Vera army was within the command center of a battle star.
"start to act!!"
Alfred looked at the time on his smart terminal, his eyes widened suddenly, stood up, waved his hand and drank loudly.
"yes!"
Suddenly, more than 230 billion battleships opened fire suddenly at Zora and the Free Alliance, who were surrounded by themselves, had their battleship engines shut down and were disarmed.
In a very small area, a queue of 160 billion completely motionless warships exploded in an instant!
The battleship group had no shields, no weapons, and no movement. In just an instant, hundreds of billions of battleships were turned into ruins. The extremely fierce attacks continued to rush towards them, and the entire coalition force was still alive.
All the soldiers had despair on their faces!
This is simply a trap in the interstellar era!
A few minutes later, the third main spiral arm, Buckland Republic, leader's mansion.
"Leader Hussein, something bad is going to happen!"
"What happened? What a panic!"
Hussein, who was drinking hot tea from a cup, looked unhappy when he saw the guard rushing in carelessly.
"I just received the latest news. After our coalition forces with the Freedom Alliance disarmed and surrendered to the Vera Alliance, they were massacred by the Vera Alliance and the Xio Alliance. No one was spared!"
"Bang..."
The cup that was in Hussein's hand just now has fallen to the ground.
