"Sir, reinforcements from headquarters have arrived," Deka said respectfully.
The person before him was Ming Tu, one of the Ant Army Group's top generals. He currently appeared human, looking utterly ordinary.
They had all heard of Ming Tu's accomplishments. His abilities spoke for themselves, and no one dared underestimate him.
"How many came?" Ming Tu withdrew his gaze from the star map and turned to ask.
"Five thousand," Deka said.
"Five thousand?" Ming Tu's voice carried a hint of surprise. "That many?"
Deka's mouth twitched.
Five thousand reinforcements? Was that a lot? Not at all.
In interstellar wars, the war machines expended numbered in the hundreds of millions. War Departments operated in units of at least a million personnel, while warships were counted by the tens of thousands. Yet headquarters had sent only five thousand reinforcements, and Lord Ming Tu thought that was a lot.
Even five thousand Top-Tier Armor Masters would have limited impact on the war.
All kinds of devastating weapons ran rampant across the battlefield. A Top-Tier Armor Master who made even the slightest mistake would meet the same fate; they would not even be enough to fill the gaps between one's teeth. Space warfare emphasized strategy and tactics. The strength of a tiny number of individual soldiers mattered little.
"Let's go take a look." Ming Tu set down the laser pointer in his hand and turned to leave the War Department.
The many generals and staff officers inside the War Department looked at one another, unable to understand why five thousand reinforcements warranted Lord Ming Tu personally receiving them. Still, none of them dared ask casually.
