Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 325
325. Chapter 324, Refusing to Fight, Quick Attack Strategy
When Ispsi was young, she had a famous beauty. Now she is 35 years old, and her youth is gone, but because of her many years of queen career, she has added a different charm. The girlish feeling retreated, and the graceful demeanor and the majesty of the king were all reflected in her.
She put on the most gorgeous and solemn clothes, put on her crown, and dressed up like she always attended the most grand ceremony in the kingdom.
She walked slowly in the foreign palace of Pinsel City, with her head held high and her queen’s demeanor overflowing.
Seeing her like this, many servants in the Pinsel Palace couldn’t help but gather together and whisper. After being surprised by her demeanor at first, these ordinary people’s thoughts were surprisingly consistent.
“The king of the fallen country, did you think this place was her palace?”
“Haha, it’s ridiculous.”
“Governor Gu will teach her a profound lesson.”
…
The servants’ voices were very low. They were just ordinary people. Even if they were facing a king who had lost his country, they instinctively dared not offend him. Even if the other party was about to die, he was still a great man whom they could only look up to before he died. They could chat with each other in private, but they dared not let anyone hear them.
But even if Ispsi didn’t hear it, she knew what those talkative people were saying.
It didn’t matter.
In a sense, they were not wrong.
Ispsi behaved like this just to wait for Gu Hang to teach her a “lesson”.
At this moment, the more she behaved like a proud queen, the louder she would be when she crawled in front of Gu Hang and smashed all her pride, dignity, and prestige.
She used to hate these things the most, but now she had to pick up what she hated as her last weapon.
She was led to a small side hall by the waiter walking in front of her.
The wooden door opened, and a bright, but not large office appeared in front of her.
The sun shone in from the window, and a handsome man who looked young was sitting behind a wooden table, writing and drawing something.
He raised his head and glanced at the Queen of Iron Curtain, his eyes moved slightly. He was still a little surprised by the Queen’s outfit.
It was mainly because he rarely saw it.
In the Alliance, this kind of thing was not popular. All members, from top to bottom, even if there was any major ceremony, just dressed formally, and were generally very simple; in Koroja No. 3, the clothes were much more exquisite, but the style was more modern, even… a bit abstract post-modern in Gu Hang’s opinion.
But Ispsi’s outfit was different. The traditional, gorgeous, and complex aesthetics of the feudal monarchs were a bit backward in many worlds, but Gu Hang unexpectedly liked it.
Of course, he was not happy to let him wear it. He would not promote this thing under his own government or economic system.
But it did not prevent him from appreciating it when it really appeared in front of him.
Ispsi keenly noticed Gu Hang’s gaze.
She made her already full chest even more solid.
But at this time, Gu Hang withdrew his gaze.
He just said gently, “Ispsi, right? You came a little earlier than the scheduled time, but please sit for a while, I have something else in my hands.”
What could Ispsi say?
She did have some small thoughts, but she didn’t dare to really disobey the governor.
She could only restrain herself and sit next to him safely.
This sitting lasted for a long time.
Her clothes looked good, but they were not very comfortable to wear, but she could only maintain a strict posture to prevent her clothes from being wrinkled.
At least not now.
During this time, she secretly glanced at Governor Gu many times. She even had a strong desire to see what the documents on the governor’s desk were about, which was obviously very important.
But she didn’t dare to do anything beyond the limit.
“Please relax a little.” Gu Hang’s gentle voice sounded again, “Don’t be so nervous, and don’t be so serious, you may have to wait for a long time.”
“It doesn’t matter.” The queen responded subconsciously.
Gu Hang didn’t care about her anymore.
In fact, Gu Hang knew what Ispsi was thinking.
But he was not interested.
He didn’t have the hobby of tearing apart the dignity of others, and he didn’t even enjoy the feeling of conquest. He just coldly calculated the pros and cons and pursued the goal in his heart.
He didn’t deliberately leave Ispsi alone, he did have some more important things to deal with.
Regarding the strategy of Black Arrow Star, Gu Hang’s ideas are being steadily promoted.
Attacking the Kingdom of Stefano is an important part.
His troops are brave and well-equipped, but the number is a big problem. No matter how good the soldiers of the alliance are, they should not face ten times the number of enemies head-on.
If it really becomes a long tug-of-war, it will be a nightmare. With a population of 400 million and the strategic depth of an entire planet, it is impossible for Gu Hang to win with only 350,000 troops. If the battle is fought in this state, Gu Hang will have to activate his backup plan, give up swallowing Black Arrow Star in one breath, and choose to digest the local population.
But there is no need to go to that step for the time being, he can still follow the preferred plan-a blitzkrieg against the entire planet.
What he needed was a quick and decisive battle, and through such a victory, he could quickly destroy the entire planet.
The attack on the Kingdom of Stefano was an action guided by this idea.
Conventional troops used a blitzkrieg situation, concentrated their firepower, and took the armored brigades as the core spearheads to continuously break through the enemy’s defenses, followed by large forces, and then formed a breakthrough…
If there was a chance, they would make dumplings and annihilate them completely, and if there was no chance, they would fight a comprehensive rout, pursuing speed first and marching towards the royal city.
When the army marched to a certain extent, Gu Hang also released his ultimate move.
His “Storm Mage Corps”.
According to the general experience of the Imperial Psionic Order, they can almost discover one person with psychic talent in every ten million people on average.
But this is not the limit data. Based on the judgment of the Psionic Order, they believe that among humans, in the normal world, almost one person with a proper psychic talent will be born in every million people. However, due to various reasons, such as local government policies, customs, and traditions, many imperial worlds have the habit of hunting witches, which makes many psychic talents be dealt with as long as they show a little bit.
In addition, because of these problems, many psychic talents will also try to hide their special features. When they are older, their talents fade or become controllable, they will be mediocre in the crowd – or they can no longer hide, go completely crazy, and become a dangerous existence, then there is no hope and they must be dealt with.
Even in places without these customs and traditions, it is not easy to identify psychic talents among ordinary people. The circulation of information is a big problem. Without a developed media industry, it will be extremely difficult to spread any news to millions of people. It is impossible for the Psychic Order to find them like finding a needle in a haystack.
Especially for those with ordinary talents, no special performance, but sometimes seeing some special hallucinations, it is even more difficult to find them.
And even if they are found, the Psychic Order sometimes has to face some competition. For example, the Inquisition likes to compete with them. A considerable number of members of the Inquisition insist that psychics are very harmful; they also like to capture some psychics and train them as witch hunters and inquisitors.
All kinds of reasons combined have turned the theoretical situation of one psychic talent in a million people into the actual situation that
the Psychic Order can only find one seedling in tens of millions of people. In fact, half of the psychics cultivated by the Psychic Order come from finding psychic talents, and the other half are cultivated artificially through some extremely costly secret methods.
But this is not worth it at all. Only some powerful people can afford it. The main goal is to give themselves or their descendants and relatives a little more special power. Anyway,
the powerful people spend money themselves, and the Psychic Order provides methods and recruits people. It can not only develop members but also build relationships. Why not do it?
This is how Gu Hang’s predecessor got his psychic talent.
According to the conventional proportion, the theoretical limit of the 55 million population of the Angry Owl Star is nothing more than finding fifty psychics.
But obviously, this problem does not apply to Gu Hang.
In fact, he has not used the means of forcibly washing the marrow and bones of people in the Kingdom of God. He just uses the training function given by the soldier card system to select from a large number of candidates, and selects hundreds of people, which is more than twice the theoretical proportion.
This may be due to two aspects.
First, the initial theoretical research of the Psychic Order is itself imperfect, and this number is also a large sample probability event. In specific circumstances, everyone may have psychic talent.
Secondly, the special environment of the Wrathful Owl Star, the reality veil is naturally thinner, resulting in more people with psychic talents than normal.
But generally speaking, this is a good thing.
Gu Hang did not choose to train all the 100 people with psychic talents. It
takes 100 points of grace to train a psychic, and 100 points to train all 100 people, which is too expensive. Even though he has earned 26,000 points in the past six months thanks to the continuous war in Koroja and the monthly bonus of grace points, Gu Hang is reluctant to spend it all at once.
In addition to 20 or 30 people who are not suitable due to age or physical problems, he only trained 50; the remaining 20 will be placed in the Mage Academy to learn, no rush.
He wants to see the actual effect of the Psychic Corps first, and then decide whether to leave it like this or expand it in the future.
Speaking of the Psychic Order, the combination of these two things also gave Gu Hang another surprise.
He is now a formal member of the Psychic Order, and his status is not bad. So, among some materials that he can see within his authority, he found something that interested him very much: psychic teleportation.
This is a “spell”, or a training method, which allows psychics to master this ability and teleport themselves or others to an indefinite distance and with indefinite accuracy. In addition, the corresponding formation can be engraved, combining the power of multiple psychics to perform collective teleportation.
Generally speaking, it takes a lot of time to train a psychic to master this trick.
But among the group of psychic talents found on the Wrathful Owl, there are two people with space-related psychic talents.
They naturally meet the requirements for using this ability, and Gu Hang chose Dani Dereth, who has a better talent. After completing the training, there are only three psychics who directly have C-level abilities, and the rest are all D-level, and Dereth is one of them.
The former is equivalent to Gu Hang’s psychic strength at level 3, and the latter is only as strong as he was at level 1.
It is worth mentioning that Gu Hang also found a person with psychic talent among the Phoenixes, that is Henrik Larsen. His talent was actually average, but becoming a Space Marine seemed to have stimulated his talent, making him one of the three people with C-level psychic strength, and allowing the Phoenix Warband to have the ability to establish a “think tank”.
Some Space Marine Warbands have a think tank position, which specifically represents the psychic power within the warband. The Phoenix Warband had one before, but it was not taken seriously and was not strong.
Let alone the think tank of the warband with only one member, at least Gu Hang’s Storm Mage Corps was established like this.
At the moment, they used the psychic teleportation array to play a key role.
The air defense system of Stefano King’s City is not easy for Feng Falcon to break through directly. Airborne is unreliable, but teleportation is no problem.
Feng Falcon took them and landed dozens of kilometers away from Stefano Capital. They walked close to the city, followed by a teleportation spell, sending the Space Marines and psychics into the fortress castle together. What happened next was just a massacre.
The entire kingdom was beheaded, which greatly promoted the progress of the war.
Not only did the other Black Arrow Star kingdoms around them fail to react, but even the Stefano Kingdom itself failed to react.
When the King’s Council was still discussing how many reinforcements to gather and the “investment ratio” of each family, and when the Stefano Kingdom itself still had millions of troops that had not yet completed mobilization and assembly, the war was essentially over. The
Alliance’s army did not try to occupy the entire Stefano Kingdom.
This place is too big and has a large population, and it is even more impossible for the Alliance to disperse its precious troops.
They just spent about half a month attacking everywhere and destroying some stubborn resistance forces.
As long as the Stefano Kingdom is beaten to a leaderless state, it will be fine.
The Alliance does not seek to build a reliable rule here for the time being, it only needs that there is no other ruling force here.
This is actually difficult to maintain for a long time. There will always be something that will take advantage of the power vacuum.
But it only needs to be temporary.
As for the remaining million troops of the Kingdom of Stefano, they have already collapsed.
