Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1002: Chapter 540, Surrender, Our Ships Surround You_2

He looked around and saw the floating vehicles quietly hovering in the air, with the guards around him nervously observing the surroundings, their weapons ready to fire at any moment.

However, just as he was about to step into the floating vehicle, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came through.

This sound was somewhat familiar—heavy explosive gun!

“Run!”

He heard someone shouting loudly.

He didn’t dare hesitate for a second and turned around to run back.

This saved his life.

The heavy explosive gun tore through the fragile exterior armor of the floating vehicle, creating a series of craters. The guard and driver who got in ahead of him were torn apart.

If he had gotten in too, he probably would have lost his life.

Fortunately, he ran fast. The explosive also shattered the vehicle’s engine and power compartment, which subsequently triggered an explosion.

Flames and smoke engulfed the floating vehicle, tearing it into countless pieces.

Wang Ningyi and his guards were knocked off balance by the blast wave, barely able to stand.

In the chaos, six interstellar warriors from the Phoenix Battle Group were already weaving through the battlefield like ghosts, donned in bright red power armor, wielding high-energy weapons, swiftly moving towards Wang Ningyi’s position.

Wang Ningyi attempted to organize a counterattack, but his guards were already thrown into chaos by the sudden assault.

The interstellar warriors calmly and efficiently dealt with the resistant guards, quickly subduing the remaining ones.

Wang Ningyi was thus captured.

But he was still defiant.

In the subsequent communication with the Alliance diplomat, Hussepe, he still firmly refused to surrender.

“Capturing me is useless, the Princess Legion will never surrender!”

That’s what he said, stubbornly courting death.

But Hussepe didn’t really want his life, continuing to persuade him.

During their exchange, the battle outside never ceased.

Led personally by Kalduce, the six Phoenix interstellar warriors who arrived first helped finish the battle in the council hall and then continued aiding the remaining Glory Guards to fortify the defense lines.

At the same time, Kalduce communicated with other squads, keeping abreast of the mission’s progress.

Capturing the enemy’s chief commander was crucial, but other mission objectives couldn’t be ignored.

The interstellar warriors, divided into tactical teams, were to control key areas, namely the weapon systems throughout the starport.

Shangdong was heavily fortified everywhere, so the largest space facility in the orbital area, the Shangdong Starport, was a place not to be missed.

Actually, the Shangdong Starport was the largest star fortress in the entire Shangdong orbital area. The other two heavy star fortresses didn’t have defenses as tight as here.

If this place could be controlled, it would be of great significance.

The previously infiltrated Glory Guards also launched a surprise attack at a critical moment.

They, too, were divided into squads, lurking in various locations. Once the Phoenix interstellar warriors launched their assault, they would emerge from behind to catch the garrison off guard and lead the Phoenix warriors to truly critical locations.

The Shangdong Star’s starport was massive, with a total population of over 600,000 living within. Apart from necessary engineers, logistics, and civilian units for infrastructure maintenance, 400,000 of them were actual soldiers.

Stationed throughout the starport, they were all alarmed at this moment.

It’s unrealistic for the Phoenix to kill all enemies inside the starport.

However, when it comes to capturing key areas, nothing can stop them.

The single combat capability of interstellar warriors was greatly demonstrated in this environment.

The garrison within the starport lacked things to counter the interstellar warriors both near and far. Heavy tanks couldn’t move in many places, and in places where they could, the interstellar warriors wouldn’t foolishly charge head-on; some sentry mechas and feedback-type power armor elites posed threats, but just threats.

The Phoenix warriors weren’t just simple interstellar warriors. Gu Hang, being cautious not to be compared with Iron Armor in this sensitive environment, was very disciplined while developing the Phoenix Battle Group.

He had the capability to exponentially expand the Phoenix, making it very large.

But doing so would raise questions about where the seeds came from, as it was claimed that Matins and others preserved the original genetic seed stock. This claim could only be debunked by four veteran soldiers who survived the century-long penitential expedition, but they obviously wouldn’t expose themselves.

Also, to avoid being labeled similarly to Iron Armor for overexpansion.

Despite the critical moment, the Empire relied on Gu Hang to fight against the Iron Armor Battle Group, likely not causing trouble on this issue, turning a blind eye. But clearly, these matters would be accounted for later as evidence for reckoning.

Fewer weaknesses aren’t a bad thing either.

Since it wasn’t feasible to increase the quantity, the focus was on quality.

The Phoenix Battle Group may not be all champions, but at least it’s a group of elite veterans.

Referencing the Alliance Army’s encounter at Yuehe VII, even a few ordinary interstellar warriors could cause havoc in a fortress guarded by tens of thousands, let alone the direct deployment of 300 elite veteran interstellar warriors at Shangdong Starport.

In just six hours, most of the firepower systems at Shangdong Starport were under the control of the interstellar warriors.

Ten members formed a tactical team, controlling over twenty firepoints; the rest guarded operational systems, ammunition depots, command centers, and other places.

Without a chief commander, the rebels were still well-organized. They launched wave after wave of fierce counterattacks, trying to reclaim these key areas.

However, in the hands of the Phoenix, these attempts all failed.

Meanwhile, under the control of the interstellar warriors, the orbital guns at Shangdong Starport slowly activated.

The gun barrel aimed at the rear of the outer star fortress.

Fire.

The star fortress collapsed.

The outer star fortress had received the message, but there was no way to avoid it. With the propulsion system equipped on the star fortress, it was impossible to perform such a high-difficulty maneuver.

Moreover, compared to the thickness of the front armor, the rear of the star fortress didn’t have such strong protection.

The firepower equipped on the star fortress couldn’t turn to attack its own starport either.

After hitting the star fortress, the starport’s firepower, still under the control of the combat readiness units, turned to attack the remaining armed space stations.

…

“Look, just look.” Hussepe, the Alliance diplomat, said with great anguish while bringing the bound General Wang Ningyi to the terrace, “Each explosion represents the sacrifice of countless brave warriors! These, these are all your mistakes!”

Wang Ningyi glared viciously at Hussepe, cursing continuously.

But in fact, he was the one truly pained at heart.

Why was he so foolish as to communicate with the Alliance diplomat? Why let Alliance ships in?

Even if he knew nothing about external information, so what?

Wasn’t he instructed to hold out to the end when parting with Battle Group Leader Politos?

Why attempt to gather intelligence from the Alliance diplomatic exchange?

What good could that do?

Not a word from these people was true!

And he exposed weaknesses, getting caught off guard!

From this perspective, everything happening now was indeed his responsibility!

“I should have killed you when you first came!” he said to Hussepe.

“But you didn’t, did you?” Hussepe said, “Since you’ve already made the mistake, don’t continue making it. The main fleet of the Alliance is just outside, now the starport’s firepower is under our control, the two star fortresses have been destroyed, and countless space stations have been damaged. Surrender, General, so more lives can be spared. At this point, there’s no way you can resist any longer.”
