Strike First

Pegasus Group had just replenished a batch of warships. The strength of an old industrial conglomerate could not be underestimated; even by temporarily restarting its production lines, it could replenish some of its losses in destroyers and frigates within a short time.

As for cruisers and larger warships, construction had already begun, and they were merely waiting to roll off the line.

All the production lines were already in place. They could soon produce large numbers of warships, and there was no shortage of reserve personnel either. Fleets could be assembled at any time.

With this batch of frigates and destroyers replenishing its forces, Pegasus Group directly redeployed cruisers and even battleships from other locations to regroup.

Defenses in other rear areas would temporarily be filled in by frigates and destroyers.

In the short term, there was nothing wrong with this approach.

With Pegasus Group's prestige, it could keep the situation under control.

They only needed two months for the first batch of replacement cruisers to arrive.

Pegasus Group's scout ships began making frequent sorties, attempting to determine Maple Leaf Mining's true strength.

The new assembly point for the warships was Guardian Star, right at the outermost edge.

In the pitch-black starry sky, stars were the only points of light. Even the light reflected by planets was difficult to observe with the naked eye.

As the outermost planet of the Pegasus Galaxy, Guardian Star naturally possessed a certain degree of defensive capability.

Although the Pegasus Galaxy's defensive system was not arranged from the outside inward, Guardian Star itself had resources that could be mined and thus held some value.

Moreover, building a defensive system around a planet offered the best value for money, and from a spatial perspective, it also possessed a certain degree of strategic value.

However, its true
