However, the politicians of the Nonar United Kingdom soon couldn't bother with these matters.

The Luofeng Empire's surprise fleet of less than a hundred ships had already appeared near their Head Star!

At the same time.

The flagship of the Luofeng surprise fleet.

Yang Ming carefully stared at the screen in front of him, his brow lightly furrowing.

About 120 warships were left at the United Kingdom's Head Star, but most of them were old-fashioned ships.

Their planetary defense system had been activated, tens of thousands of orbital self-propelled cannons quickly formed into arrays, ready for battle.

But the control system of these self-propelled cannons... had been marked as light green by Lyu.

This indicated that Lyu had used the conditions created by the advance infiltration team to invade this satellite defense system, capable of interfering with its operation.

They only needed to deal with these 120 warships, and the Head Star of the United Kingdom would be open to them.

This?

Do we attack?

In Yang Ming's plan, arriving at the enemy's Head Star was to force them to withdraw troops from the front lines.

Now, should he modify the plan and directly attack the surface of the enemy's Head Star, blasting the hometown of those politicians?

No, the politicians must have fled to the underground shelters.

This indeed left Yang Ming feeling somewhat conflicted.

"Lyu, how's the situation at the front?"

"Boss," Lyu said softly, "the enemy's commander should already be feeling great pressure from back home, they're trying to break their excellent formation and force us into direct engagement with them."

Yang Ming laughed, "Is it possible that it's the Prime Minister on the United Kingdom's Head Star issuing twelve consecutive orders demanding their return?"

"Quite likely," Lyu said, "Boss, do you want to directly attack the Head Star? I've calculated we have about an eighty-five percent chance of victory. If you decide to attack their Head Star directly, we can directly engage and entangle their main forces."

"No need," Yang Ming had already made a decision, "fighting like this, our ships will suffer severely, let's lure them away and demonstrate the performance of our ships."

"Yes, boss."

"Is the tech company ready to explain Wind Warship's surge in performance?"

"Boss, it's ready."

Yang Ming nodded and proactively cut off communication, continuing to issue commands to the fleet.

They were ready for engagement, charging forward steadily.

Although there was no intention of speeding up, the momentum was impressive.

The defense forces of the enemy's Head Star, aware of their 'weakness,' facing the imposing Luofeng surprise fleet, had no courage to fight, continuously retracting their lines, trying to utilize the planetary defense system to destroy the Luofeng surprise fleet.

Time ticked away second by second.

The distance between the two fleets continued to shrink and soon they would be within each other's firing range.

Yang Ming quietly watched the message box in front of him.

"Squad One, fire at extreme range."

Extreme range shooting: High-energy ion beam utilizes an ultra-strong magnetic field for ion acceleration and aggregation, resulting in ion dispersion at ranges beyond effective attack distance, even very short distances reduce carried energy significantly.

Over twenty warships of various sizes fired their main and secondary cannons simultaneously.

Dozens of ion beams of varying thicknesses streaked across space.

Yang Ming noticed that even two of the enemy's smaller warships caught fire because of this.

"Father," whispered the mechanical Thought Body advisor beside him, "the defensive forces here are very weak, this is an opportunity. Many of their ships are old vessels brought over temporarily, maybe their energy shields can't maintain long-term stability."

"What would we achieve by attacking inside? Capturing those politicians that can be abandoned by the Sherman Empire at any moment?" Content orıginally comes from 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩

Yang Ming laughed:

"The only role of these politicians is to call back their fleet, you have to trust the survival instincts of these politicians, and their care for their own life.

"And if we delay here too long, we'll lose the chance to leave, the enemy undoubtedly has directional warp trajectories near the Head Star.

"Act according to plan."

"Yes!"

Almost as soon as Yang Ming's words fell, Lyu's voice sounded:

"The enemy's frontal fleet is in disagreement, a third of the rear fleet has turned around to warp! The rest of the fleet is accelerating backward to try and distance themselves from us!"

Yang Ming said, "Make a posture of letting them return."

"Boss, you should withdraw now!"

"Don't rush," Yang Ming said, "wait a bit longer, let the warping ships finish, my fleet begins slowing to second gear!"

"Repeat, all ships slow to second gear!"

"Prepare to warp."

"Repeat, initiate warp preparation."

Yang Ming instinctively clenched his fist.

"Report! Spatial expansion detected behind us! It's the enemy's hidden directed warp trajectory!"

"Warp!"

Yang Ming immediately decided, each ship became surrounded by a silvery-white light film, space simultaneously created a layer of ripples, the surprise fleet disappeared in sync.

The defensive force surrounding the Head Star and over two hundred ships belonging to the United Kingdom's elite main force fleet that had just returned, were left staring in surprise.

Then, they simultaneously received two news items.

The first news was that an enemy surprise fleet had appeared outside their fourth Administrative Star.

The second news was that Luofeng Empire launched a fierce offensive on the frontal battlefield, seemingly ready for a decisive showdown.

And these over two hundred ships that returned from the front line were stuck in the expanding space, experiencing a slight distortion in time flow, resulting in about fifteen minutes of 'warp cooldown.'

These two news items had long been anticipated by the United Kingdom's commander.

The commander made this decision with his reasons.
