The Plan

With the arrival of the entire Lashudia Clan warship, all the civilized races on the front lines knew that a great battle was about to break out. At the same time, various gatherings and discussions filled the camps.

The main focus of the discussion was naturally the upcoming war and how it should be conducted, followed by the discussion of the Zerg itself.

With war about to break out with the Zerg, it's impossible for any race not to do their homework beforehand. However, the Zerg's current performance seems to contradict the descriptions in the data.

Compared to the Zerg of the past, the current Zerg seem far too docile. This has led to two conflicting opinions among the outsiders: one is that the Zerg, knowing victory is hopeless, have given up and are now enjoying the last moments of their lives; the other is that it's all an illusion, Zerg are preparing some powerful strategy, hence their confidence.

The two viewpoints were split 40/60, with a slightly higher percentage believing that the Zerg had prepared a major surprise. Therefore, the third most popular topic of discussion was what major surprise the Zerg had in store.

Speculation was rampant, ranging from super bombs and star-detonating devices to even two-dimensional foils from science fiction movies. However, as the discussion progressed, those speculations, such as super bombs and two-dimensional foils, were all ruled out.

Because a super bomb is simply impossible. What kind of bomb could affect a distance of several light-years and wipe out a super fleet of three billion warships in one fell swoop? It's simply unimaginable.

As for the two-dimensional foil, it goes without saying that it's conceivable, but currently it only exists in imagination. The exploration of dimensions has continued among various civilizations, but no one has been heard of making any progress; even the Epoch Clan has been unable to enter.

Therefore, detonating the star seems to be the most likely option. If the Zerg can indeed destroy the star of No. 1 Star System, then this enormous fireball, which is constantly undergoing various energy reactions, will eject massive amounts of matter and energy upon explosion, making the destruction of the Coalition Army super fleet a piece of cake. It's possible that star systems within several orbits will become Dead Zone, and the entire Star Sea Alliance territory will be affected to varying degrees.

If the Zerg really intend to do this, then they've gone a bit too far. However, sacrificing their own Biological Weapon in exchange for the Alliance's warships and personnel seems like a worthwhile trade.

Moreover, the Zerg reinforcements have increased slowly over the years, although objectively speaking, many factors have constrained the Zerg's troop growth rate. An increase of one billion over ten years is entirely within a reasonable range.

But people sometimes only believe what they want to believe. In word of mouth, the slow reinforcement of the Zerg became a deliberate act to reduce their own casualties. After all, if their forces were destined to be wiped out, then naturally the fewer the better.

The outsiders speculated that if it weren't for the need to conceal their secrets, the Zerg would have been eager to withdraw all their existing forces from this location. Moreover, from another perspective, a star is indeed a super bomb, with an impact range reaching hundreds or even thousands of light-years. It has virtually no construction cost, is formed entirely naturally, and those who have used it all praise it highly.

Of course, the last sentence was just a joke; there is no record of blowing up a star in the records of the various races of the Alliance. This is not just a matter of not wanting to; in history, there have always been a few madmen with crazy ideas.

The reason these madmen failed ultimately boils down to their lack of strength. A star may be there, but it's not something you can just blow up at will.

Let alone stars, even a typical geological planet, especially one that's slightly larger, can pose a significant challenge to many extraterrestrial civilizations. At least half of the Mid-Ring Civilizations struggle with planets.

The gap between planets and stars is even greater than the gap between primitive humans and the Mid-Ring Civilizations; in any case, none of the forces currently on the front lines can achieve this.

This includes the Lashudia Civilization, which is considered the strongest civilization in the central circle.

Not only them, but even the Inner-Ring Civilizations would probably find it difficult to do so. Therefore, whether the Zerg have the strength and means to destroy a star has become a new hot topic.

Moreover, if the Zerg's plan is indeed to use the power of a star's explosion to destroy the Coalition Army Forces, then they will face more than just the question of whether they can actually destroy the star.

Even if the Zerg had a way to destroy a star, the energy shockwaves from the explosion wouldn't allow for warp drive. As long as they maintained a certain distance, even if the star exploded, the Coalition Army could easily turn around, create a safe distance, and leave at warp speed.

If the Zerg cannot wipe out this Coalition Army in one fell swoop, and suffer heavy losses themselves, then it would be a huge loss for the Zerg. The Zerg are not stupid; their past record proves this. They must have some kind of confidence to have made this plan.

The foreign tribes used their imaginations and continued to explore along this line of thought, only to find that the problem seemed to have returned to the side of the Coalition Army.

Since the Coalition Army's objective is to attack No. 1 Star System, they will inevitably approach it. The Zerg will not need to devise any strategies; the Coalition Army will simply deliver itself to their doorstep.

Conversely, the Zerg would be safe, as their original objective was to resist the Coalition Army's attack. If they didn't go, they naturally wouldn't be able to pose a threat to Zerg territory.

The more the outsiders thought about it, the more convinced they became that this was indeed the case, logically consistent, and in line with reality; this was exactly what the Zerg intended. More and more outsiders believed this conjecture, and so the conjecture gradually became a certainty.

Strangely, the outsiders didn't seem too annoyed; on the contrary, they were somewhat gloating. The Lashudia Clan was now in charge of the frontline affairs, and everyone wanted to see what solution they would offer. If they were forced to retreat before the battle even began, or simply wasted time here, it would be a huge joke, and the outcome might overshadow all other hot topics.

The onlookers prepared their snacks and stools, sitting in the front row, gleefully anticipating the Lashudia Clan's downfall. After all, the Lashudia Clan's universally detestable nature had offended far too many people.

However, they underestimated the Lashudia Clan and their vicious nature. They hadn't even considered any solutions. The Lashudiyas were aiming for the first victory, and when the time came, how could they back down? Honor was their life; they would either succeed or die trying.

Therefore, the battle plan was issued shortly afterward. Compared with the previous plan, the new plan was almost unchanged, or even exactly the same.

And indeed, that was the case. The Lashudia Clan's intention was to proceed as planned: deploy all forces, launch a frontal assault, and destroy everything in their way...

This caused an uproar among the other races. They had no idea the Zerg had planned to detonate a star; wasn't this sending them to their deaths? So they protested against the Lashudia Clan's plan.

But the Lashudia Clan ignored them, saying that they were currently in command at the front and anyone who dared to disobey would be executed on the spot.
