Chapter 994: Chapter 535, The True Fortress World_2

“Paying such a huge sacrifice to conquer these two planets, and then what? This process is truly too prolonged, and if we delay further, our enemy will reinforce as well. Ultimately, this will turn into a war of attrition; are we going to bleed against them on a battlefield they have chosen?”

At this point, Gu Hang shook his head and continued to express his opinion:

“No, we shouldn’t do this. The precious blood of the Alliance Warriors, the Starships built with great effort by the Alliance workers and engineers, shouldn’t be wasted this way.”

“We should leverage our superior naval forces to break the rebel blockade of the jump points in the two star systems and bring the war into the enemy’s territory. Do not fight in the battlefield preset by the enemy.”

Gu Hang’s words clarified the strategic direction—completely disregarding the two Fortress Worlds, Shangdong and Guangfeng, and advancing directly into the Proudclaw Cosmos.

Of course, this entails taking risks.

Ignoring the two Fortress Worlds, the armies, orbital cannon arrays, and Star Fortress System on them naturally cannot threaten the Alliance’s maneuvering ships directly shuttling between the two jump points. However, the Alliance’s grand army also cannot utilize these two worlds. The Alliance’s supply line will be stretched longer.

To avoid the threat of the Star Fortress System of the two Fortress Worlds, a rather large detour in space must be made.

More crucially, the enemy’s naval forces are still present. If we cannot conquer the orbital defense systems of these two planets, the enemy’s navy will seize the opportunity to strike.

While the Alliance Main Fleet remains, their two battleships along with their smaller ships are unlikely to dare to cause trouble; however, once the Alliance’s forces point towards the Proudclaw Cosmos and pierce deep within, the supply line behind will be at risk.

Even if the Alliance attempts to hunt and besiege the enemy navy, they have two Fortress Worlds as pivots, able to retreat at any time, leaving the Alliance unable to pursue.
