Purple Perilla Starfield

The Su family mansion atop a mountain.

The former governor, who claimed to be in seclusion for recuperation, is currently fishing in an artificial lake within his nearly 10,000-meter-high mansion.

"Father... the second civil war between the factions of Prince Yan and the little princess has been going on for nearly forty hours."

"Prince Yan has already issued three imperial edicts to us, demanding that the Su family send troops to assist in the war." The eldest son of the Su family said softly, looking at the old governor Su, who was resting with his eyes closed and holding a fishing rod.

"How is the war going between the two sides?" Governor Su asked slowly.

The eldest son of the Su family answered one by one: "On the battlefield where the little princess is, the princess's royal fleet of 150,000 interstellar warships is locked in a war of attrition with 30,000 Imperial troops and 50,000 Zerg fleets."

To date, the Princess Royal Fleet has lost an average of 5,000 interstellar warships every ten hours.

Prince Yan's Imperial forces are losing a thousand interstellar warships and five thousand Zerg motherships every ten hours. Based on this situation... the Princess's royal fleet should have the advantage.

Governor Su retorted, "No, you're being too short-sighted." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The Princess Royal Fleet employs the tactics of the JF-17 Legion, relying on interstellar missile ships, specifically the T2 Lion King-class heavy interstellar missile ships.

This combat method is very aggressive at the beginning, but it consumes a lot of interstellar missiles.

I estimate that in the subsequent battles, the losses of the princess's royal fleet will gradually increase, while Qin Xiaotian's Zerg fleet will become stronger and stronger.

Without outside intervention, it would likely degenerate into a fierce battle.

“Father is right.” The eldest son of the Su family lowered his head and continued, “The current situation in the Chuwen Star System is that a fleet of 50,000 Zerg is attacking the industrial base of the Chuwen Star System. The Chuwen Star System’s defenders have 3,000 interstellar warships from the Chu family’s army, as well as reinforcements arriving from various parts of the Chuhe Star Region.”

In addition, Chu Changhe personally led five Chu family fleets, totaling 15,000 interstellar warships, to provide support.

However, the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great. According to the latest information, the Chu Wen star system is estimated to fall within the next ten hours!

Governor Su did not speak, but simply stared at the calm lake with his eyes half-open.

"At the battlefield of the Beiyan Group, for some unknown reason, communication transmission in the area has been interrupted, and intelligence from the battlefield cannot be transmitted out."

"So we can't get intelligence about that battlefield," said the eldest son of the Su family.

"What about the Snow Swallow Star Region? And how's the investigation into that matter going? Is it conclusive?" Governor Su inquired.

An angry and fearful glint flashed in the eyes of the eldest son of the Su family: "According to our investigation, Qin Longcheng released a kind of insect virus in the Xueyan Star Region, which transformed all the creatures on the habitable planets of all nineteen star systems in the Xueyan Star Region into a kind of mutated insect race!"

According to the few who escaped, those nineteen star systems have become hell on earth.

It is estimated that... all of the trillions of lives in these nineteen star systems... are gone.

The three Dragon Legions of the Dragon Lord gathered together and headed straight for the second star system of the Snow Swallow Starfield, which was Qin Xiaotian's base camp. The offensive was extremely fierce, and the surface ecology of the planets that were contaminated by the Zerg virus was completely destroyed in the process.

Based on the current location of the voyage, it is estimated that it will take a maximum of thirty hours to reach the second star system in the Snow Swallow Starfield.

The casualty rate of the three JF-17 Legion is no more than 5%, but according to our calculations, the combat resource consumption may be astronomical.

I suspect that this is Qin Longcheng's purpose.

To delay the Falcon Legion's offensive efficiency and deplete its combat resources.

Governor Su then opened his cloudy eyes: "Nineteen star systems, trillions of lives."

Qin Longcheng is really capable of doing that...

Boss, if it were you in that situation, would you dare to do something like this?

The eldest son of the Su family remained silent and did not answer.

"So be it. So be it. That's why Qin Longcheng is a five-star marshal in our Starry Empire, while you are just the eldest son of our Su family."

I can see that too. You younger generation are good at maintaining the status quo, but in other areas... you're far from it.

"I only hope that after this old codger passes away, you lot can keep the Su family alive for a few hundred more years," Governor Su laughed.

The eldest son of the Su family immediately said, "Grandfather, what are you saying! You may live to be a thousand years old!"

I've already found out that the Holy Radiant Empire has made a breakthrough in its research on prolonging life. A vial of life-prolonging medicine only costs ten million star coins, and one vial is injected every month.

I've already arranged for someone to make the purchase.

Governor Su did not refute the claim about extending lifespan.

Because he was afraid of dying, he wanted to continue living.

"Let's not talk about that anymore, let's get back to the main topic."

"What about the Xiaolong Galaxy? Is Qin Xiaotian merely feigning an attack?" Governor Su asked.

The eldest son of the Su family nodded: "Father, you were right before. The attack on the Xiaolong star system was just a feint, and there was no fierce battle."

"What about Chu Changhe's Chu family army fleet?" Governor Su asked.

The eldest son of the Su family said, "Although Marshal Chu personally led the team to support the Chu Wen star system, the Chu family's army fleet on the main battlefield is still intensifying its offensive. It has now entered the Xingyao Central Star System from the Chuhe Star Region."

They conquered four star systems and destroyed more than 10,000 Imperial fleets.

The Chu family's fleet launched a rapid, unimpeded attack, heading straight for the Imperial Capital Star!

Governor Su pondered for a moment.

At this moment, the float swayed a few times, and the fish took the bait!

Governor Su reeled in the fishing line, and a colorful fish of unknown species was caught.

The eldest son of the Su family immediately stepped forward to help retrieve the fish.

"The situation is still unclear, and our Su family cannot immediately express our stance and take sides."

However, some superficial actions can still be performed.

I hereby order the Su family's fleet to begin assembling, which is expected to take about a week to complete.

"Remember, it's one week." Governor Su's words were loaded with meaning.

The eldest son of the Su family nodded and repeated, "Understood. Complete the pre-battle preparations within a week!"

"At the same time, have the third brother maintain contact with several of Qin Xiaotian's trusted subordinates."

"Have the second son spend more time with Su Lan's parents during this period, and have Su Lan's parents keep in touch with Su Lan, send messages, let her know she's safe, and chat about everyday things," said Governor Su.

"Understood, I will give the order," said the eldest son of the Su family.

Governor Su looked at the colorful fish his son handed him, took it, and threw it back into the lake.

It's not time for it to take the bait yet.

Sigh, this old man just doesn't like their constant bickering. What's the point of fighting so much? Why not just live a peaceful life and have children?

Governor Su sighed deeply, turned and walked into the house, muttering complaints about the current situation.

The eldest son of the Su family followed his father respectfully the whole time.
