At first glance, it seems that the number of Zerg casualties suffered by the Xiaolong Starship Zerg this time is quite large.

In fact, to date, the number of Zerg members that the Zerg Queen has deployed to the interstellar battlefield of Devouring Civilizations only accounts for half of the current Zerg population.

Because the current size of the X-Dragon interstellar Zerg has exceeded one billion!

This figure of one billion does not include the lower-level Zerg units.

Furthermore, this is under the condition that the number of insect princesses is controlled and 'optimized'.

If the Insect Queen is allowed to continue its uncontrolled breeding and production as it is now, the lost portion of the X-Dragon interstellar Zerg can be recovered in the shortest possible time, provided that resources and food are sufficient.

Right now, isn't there plenty of food?

Those more than 30 million interstellar warships that devour civilizations and remained in the universe of the Dragon Empire.

"Chongchong, we will need the assistance of your Zerg fleet in the upcoming battles on the home soil of our Xiaolong Empire."

"Then you can take all the wreckage of those interstellar warships back as food to quickly restore the number of Zerg lost by the Wyvern," Zhao Chen instructed the Zerg Queen.

Insect Princess nodded: "I understand, brother."

The video window is closed.

At this moment, Lilith was the only person left by Zhao Chen's side.

"Now you can rest assured."

"Everything went smoothly, and we've weathered this current crisis," Lilith said with a smile to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen said seriously, "It's not over yet."

The Devouring Civilization has left 30 million interstellar warships within our empire's territory. Those rulers of the Devouring Civilization will certainly not stand idly by and watch this part of the interstellar fleet be completely annihilated by us.

We will definitely find a way to provide support.

They will open several more space jump points into our universe in the shortest possible time.

Lilith thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "You're right about that."

But they now need to gather the necessary resources and assemble the required interstellar fleet, which will take a lot of time.

It's impossible to complete this in the short term.

"Dragon Girl, can you do the calculations?"

"How long would it take for the Devouring Civilization to launch another invasion against us in this regard?" Zhao Chen looked at the artificial intelligence of the Dragon Emperor.

“No problem.” Little Dragon Girl stared into the void, as if looking at something. Countless streams of data could be seen flowing through her pupils.

Zhao Chen continued, "No matter what, we need to devour these 30 million interstellar warships in the shortest possible time."

Lilith frowned and said, "Even though the enemy's more than 30 million interstellar warships will lose their logistical support and supplies, their morale will also be unstable."

But the scale and quantity are what they are.

Our Dragon Empire's fleet has less than three million interstellar warships, while the Holy Elf Legion's fleet has seven or eight million interstellar warships, totaling ten million.

Even if we can still mobilize the Zerg fleet from the Zerg Queen, which is estimated to be around 500 million ships.

However, it would be quite difficult to devour these more than 30 million interstellar warships that have been devouring civilizations in a short period of time.

Of course, the exact timeframe depends on various factors.

At this moment, Xiaolongnu spoke: "According to the current records in my database regarding the information about devouring civilizations..."

If the Devouring Civilization wants to launch another invasion of our Dragon Empire universe in a short period of time.

At the fastest, it will take at least a week.

A week?

Lilith was taken aback; she hadn't expected the time to be so short. She asked in confusion, "Just a week?"

How could it be so short?

Xiaolongnu explained, "This is a conclusion I reached based on various intelligence data."

Prior to this, the Devouring Civilization had not launched a full-scale invasion of our Dragon Empire universe, which indicates that they had at least a considerable amount of backup resources and strength.

"As long as they have the determination and the will, a week is entirely possible."

Lilith looked at Zhao Chen with concern.

Within a week, they devoured over 30 million interstellar warships that had been consuming civilizations.

This is extremely difficult.

It's worth noting that in the month-long battle prior to this, they had only devoured ten million interstellar warships of the Devouring Civilization.

Despite the current situation, these more than 30 million interstellar warships that devour civilizations are on the verge of collapse.

However, there is only one week left.

And everyone is well aware of this.

People who are driven to the brink of despair are more likely to unleash their fighting spirit.

Just then, a video window popped up.

It was Marshal Charlotte.

"Judging from your expressions, you're worried about how to deal with the remnants of the Devouring Civilization within our Dragon Empire, aren't you?" Marshal Charlotte noticed the worry on Zhao Chen and Lilith's faces.

Lilith nodded and told Charlotte the data that Little Dragon Girl had just calculated.

"A week...that's about what I expected," Charlotte said calmly.

Lilith scratched her head: "In this week, let alone thirty million interstellar warships, we'd be lucky if we could take out ten million interstellar warships."

This is incredibly difficult.

"It's quite difficult."

"After all, we're going to devour over 30 million interstellar warships from the Devouring Civilization in one go," Charlotte said with a light laugh.

Zhao Chen rubbed his chin and said seriously, "But we don't necessarily need to completely devour these 30 million interstellar warships."

Lilith looked at Zhao Chen in surprise.

Zhao Chen pulled up several documents about the devouring civilizations, including the composition of which interstellar fleets.

"Regarding these interstellar fleets that devour civilizations."

There are prior records of this, as the Devouring Civilization has absorbed many interstellar races that had previously been invaded.

As a result, in their devoured civilization universe, the number of alien interstellar races has now reached nearly half.

This also led to many of the officers and soldiers they recruiting coming from the interstellar races they had invaded and destroyed.

Some interstellar fleets even belong to those interstellar families that have sided with and devoured civilizations.

Although they previously served the Devouring Civilization, this does not mean they were entirely loyal to it.

Hearing Zhao Chen's thoughts.

Lilith immediately understood what she meant: "You want to sow discord among them! And at the same time, recruit them!"

Zhao Chen nodded: "That's right."

If we can get a portion of their starfleet to surrender, that would be one option.

This method can also cause division within the enemy's internal military structure, significantly reducing their combat effectiveness.

This will greatly relieve our stress.

Charlotte chimed in, "I've considered that too, but it's quite difficult."

"If it's easy, then we don't need to consider it," Zhao Chen said with a light laugh. "Now we must seize every possible method."

"If the Holy Elf Empire could send us some more reinforcement fleets, that would be great," Lilith said, pouting.

Zhao Chen said, "On this point, the Flame Elf King has already tried to win it over."

But after all, this is someone else's idea, and we can't control it, so we can't place all our hopes on them.

We ourselves need to be prepared for both possibilities.

Charlotte said seriously, "I also think His Majesty's idea is very appropriate."

Although it is quite difficult.

However, even if we cannot completely annihilate these 30 million interstellar warships within a week, it would still be beneficial for us to digest as many as possible.

Even if they eventually devour civilization and make a comeback.

However, on our side of the Xiaolong Empire's battlefield, they only have less than ten million interstellar warships left.

That also reduced the pressure on us considerably.

Charlotte has a very open-minded view.

It takes about a week to finish eating it all.

It's okay if we can't finish it.

“Then let’s proceed according to this approach,” Zhao Chen nodded and said.

Lilith then asked, "What should we do if there are any interstellar warships that surrender?"

Zhao Chen thought for a moment and said, "As long as the interstellar warships surrender on the battlefield, we can not pursue any normal wartime behavior they engaged in during the previous war."

We are willing to grant them the status of equal citizens of the Dragon Empire and provide them with the most basic living conditions.

If they want to leave, we will not stop them.

However, all weapons and equipment must be surrendered, and as long as they remain within the territory of our Dragon Empire, they must obey our orders and arrangements.

Charlotte then said, "The placement of these surrenderers is very important, especially the first group."

If properly arranged, we can use this to conduct propaganda and greatly increase our influence within the enemy's ranks.

Lilith smiled slightly: "Don't worry, leave this to me. I'm good at this."

Succubi are naturally masters at manipulating people's hearts.

In this way, the basic steps of the plan were determined.

After a brief period of joy, everyone began to work on the next step of the plan.

As for persuading someone to surrender, of course, we would try to persuade them to surrender while fighting.

Lilith created a public cosmic channel that could be searched across several battlefields, so that crew members on enemy starships could also be reached.

At the same time, Lilith also borrowed some interstellar races that had been invaded, persecuted, and fled from the Holy Elf Empire.

Let them personally persuade their fellow citizens within the devouring civilization's interstellar fleet to surrender.

The effect of persuading someone to surrender is undoubtedly doubled when it comes from members of the same clan.

...

"I... what am I supposed to say next?" A woman with four eyes on her face and a braid-like structure at the back of her head looked nervously at the female officer in front of her.

"It's alright, just say what you want to say."

Think about the invasion of your interstellar universe by the Devouring Civilization back then.

Your cosmic home was invaded and destroyed forty years ago, wasn't it?

You must have been only twenty years old at the time, which is considered a minor in your race.

You can tell the story of your hometown.

"In short, you can say whatever you want," the female officer said with a smile.

These female officers were not just randomly selected; without exception, they all held degrees in interstellar psychology.
