Chapter 449 The Cage

Chapter 449 The Cage

During the truce negotiation process, the two sides had a tacit understanding that they did not intend to sign a written agreement.

Firstly, everyone knows that that thing has no binding force at all, and secondly, the moment the two parties reach an agreement, they are ready to turn their faces at any time...

Not long after the armistice, more than a hundred captives were released back to the neighboring galaxy, and Gustav also took the opportunity to make a big publicity, making the ceremony of taking back the captives as grand as a warrior returning in triumph.

At the same time, Gustav also declared that this was a huge diplomatic victory. Any force would tremble as the Gemini Armada pointed at it.

Under such propaganda, the morale of the army, which had been fluctuating due to the sudden truce, did recover a little bit, and it also saved Gustav's previous defeat and the soldiers' captive face.

As a result, the act of releasing the captives in the unity of all things was regarded by some uninformed people as an act of showing weakness to Gemini.

The prisoners who survived the catastrophe were naturally ecstatic when they returned to their troops, but when asked about the situation of the solar system, they didn't know anything.

"I don't know. Since we were captured, the other party has never let us have access to information from the outside world. There are only some automated robots around us."

"The place where we were detained should not be far from the wormhole. The other party didn't mean to torture us, not even a normal interrogation."

"Abuse? Not at all. On the contrary, our treatment is still very good. Even if we fail to escape several times, the other party's punishment is very light, which is much friendlier than domestic prisons!"

"Information on the place of detention? Well...does it count if there are too many monitors? Sometimes I always feel that there are countless pairs of eyes staring at me, and I can't even sleep well..."

So Gemini was very disappointed to find that it was impossible to learn any information about the solar system from these captives, and the only most valuable information was regarded as an illusion caused by a certain soldier's excessive mental stress...

"In this way, there may really be secrets in the solar system..." This is the conclusion Isael came to through these captives.

"Well! Obviously, these captives were targeted for intelligence blockade, and the other party tried to avoid even personal contact, and only used some automated robots to guard them, in order to avoid information leakage as much as possible.

Could it be that in the solar system... there are really Ante Empire garrisons? "

"We can't rule out this possibility. In addition, judging from the other party's attitude towards these captives, I'm afraid that as early as when these people were captured, they had already planned to use them as bargaining chips." Yishaer guessed.

Preferential treatment of prisoners, information blockade, this is by no means a normal method of detaining prisoners, unless the detainees have long known that they will release these prisoners...

Could it be that when the opponent was engaged in a wormhole offensive and defensive battle, it had already been counted as today?

Gustav's face was a bit ugly, and he felt humiliated by being led by the nose. The other party took one step and watched three steps, while he could only passively follow the other party's rhythm.

But then he felt better again.

The opponent's actions just proved that they did not have the strength to fight head-on with their own fleet, so they needed to make a fuss about the captives.

As strong as we are, what captives do we need?

Isael ignored Gustav's inner activities, she thought for a while and asked, "Is there any latest movement on Kara planet recently?"

"Hmm! There is nothing unusual about other things, but our surveillance equipment has detected that the number of hunters on the ground of Kara planet is decreasing sharply. Not only that, but the remaining signs of Kara people's activities seem to be gradually disappearing." Gustav replied.

The transformation plan of the Immortals is definitely a gigantic project at the level of a world miracle. It requires resources and consumes incalculable manpower. Almost all the huge hunter troops were requisitioned as engineers, which naturally attracted the attention of the Gemini monitoring system.

"Huh? The number has dropped sharply? Under such circumstances, they actually chose to go dormant?" Isael frowned slightly.

"Hmph! Shouldn't they choose to hibernate? The armistice agreement was finally obtained with the captives and the water of life. I think they are worried about provoking us, so they dare not stab us anymore." Gustav snorted disdainfully. road.

"No! No, when the two armies are fighting against each other, even if one side is weak, they should definitely show weakness. It's like two wild beasts confronting each other. As long as one side shows cowardice, the other side will definitely jump up and bite madly without hesitation.

So if they want to maintain the truce, they should show their sharper fangs to deter us, warning us that it is never a wise choice to do it.

Dormant's choice...is not normal! "

Gustav was taken aback by Isael's words, but after thinking about it, it seemed to be true.

Soldiers are deceitful, so they can show that they can't.

Think about it, what is the strategic deception bureau for?

Powerful countries like to hide their trump cards. This is "showing that they can't", while the weak side keeps bragging about how their weapons can break through the sky. This is "showing that they can't". The purpose is not to try to deter the enemy. Is it false to tell the other party that you are not a persimmon?

From this point of view, the behavior on Kara planet is a bit weird.

"You mean... there's a conspiracy here?" Gustav asked.

"I don't know, maybe the other party can no longer support such a huge armament.

After all, the population of Kara is not much left, and all kinds of industrial bases have been basically destroyed by us. Before that, they should have been overdrawing the few remaining resources.

The number of the opponent's hunter troops has dropped sharply, perhaps because they have 'hibernated' these creatures to reduce consumption.

But...I always feel that things are not that simple..." Isael mused.

"Hmph! Even if they have any conspiracy, our fleet occupies an absolute strategic position. As long as we guard the planetary orbit of Kara and prevent a single aircraft from passing by, even if the opponent jumps around, they can only be on the surface of the planet, posing a fundamental threat. Not to us." Gustav said confidently.

But then he thought for a while and added, "But just in case, I will dispatch another part of the fleet to strengthen the blockade around Kara Star! Make sure nothing goes wrong!"

As a qualified commander, he can despise the opponent strategically, and he will never underestimate the enemy tactically.

Isael nodded when she heard the words. After all, she had a good location, and she didn't believe that the other party could make waves under such circumstances.

Kara star provided shelter for the opponent, but it was also a natural cage, and gravity was the heaviest shackle!

Under the blockade of dozens of warships, any flying object that wanted to escape from Kara Star would be blasted into pieces during the slow climb.

But they never imagined that what kind of a big killer is hidden deep in Kara Star...
