Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 872: Chapter 475, Let’s First Get Past Mr. Gu Chapter 872: Chapter 475, Let’s First Get Past Mr. Gu The atmosphere between Erso and Gu Hang suddenly fell silent after this statement.

After a few seconds, or perhaps a few minutes, Erso spoke up:

“What did you say?”

After he spoke, he felt that his question was rather lame.

No one would joke about such matters, or spread false information.

And indeed, it was highly possible. The main forces of the Alliance were already stirring troubles in the Green Skins’ den. It was understandable that Titus headed toward the Iron-Tooth lair and got blocked by the Alliance.

Yet, he couldn’t help but seek confirmation.

At the same time, he felt a great sense of absurdity rising within him.

If Titus had died at the hands of the Alliance, then what were the gains of the Fury Flame Battle Group’s years of struggle?

Previously, no matter how much noise the Alliance made on the eastern front, it was still a side battle. The main battlefield was here, with the Beastman leader, the great chieftain Titus, right before him.

According to the centuries-old history of the Empire’s battles against the Green Skins, everyone knew that the leader of the Beastmen was the crucial element in a war against them.

Only by eliminating the supreme leader of the Beastmen could a war be declared victorious.

As long as Fury Flame killed Titus, the major credit for the Iron Teeth War would undoubtedly belong to them. Any other contributions would at best be secondary, merely aiding the main battlefield without overshadowing it.

But now, this great achievement had been snatched away by the Alliance.

The narrative would immediately change.

The Alliance would no longer be just a supporting role.

Overall, it was the Fury Flame Battle Group that held back the main forces of the Green Skins at the front, while the Alliance struck directly from the side, significantly destroying the war potential of the Iron-Tooth Clan, forced Titus to retreat, causing internal chaos among the Green Skins, and during the encirclement, annihilated a significant part of the Green Skins’ main forces and killed the Beastman chieftain Titus, achieving victory in the war.

In this version of the story, the Alliance was clearly not a side character. On the contrary, the Fury Flame Battle Group was the supporting role.

Their role was to distract the Green Skins at the front, creating an opportunity for the true heroes—the main characters—to strike directly at the target and intercept the Beastman leader.

Yes, golden leaves to the golden medal, the perfect supporting role.

But that wasn’t acceptable to Erso!

The Fury Flame Battle Group was not an ordinary battle group.

The logic of normal Interstellar Warrior battle groups fighting wars was actually quite simple.

They possessed their own mother planet, whose outputs all belonged to them. In return, the Empire would receive the Interstellar Warriors’ compliance with imperial conscription.

However, direct orders from the Empire were rare, and Interstellar Warriors could even refuse to act—though they usually didn’t. More often, battle groups responded to distress signals from a planet, deploying a company or sometimes less than a company, depending on the trouble encountered on the planet.

They could also ignore these distress signals.

From these perspectives, the independence of Interstellar Warriors was very strong.

Of course, most Interstellar Warriors would not ignore a distress call or refuse an imperial order. Such was their honor.

The Fury Flame Battle Group came to fight in the Dragonhawk Star Domain following this protocol.

But the difference lay in that ordinary battle groups, upon achieving honor, were content.

From this perspective, being a supporting character, though regrettable, was usually not a deal-breaker for ordinary battle groups.

But not for the Fury Flame Battle Group. What they valued more was the real significance behind the honor.

If it were only as simple as being a supporting character, but the key point was, they paid such a high price to spread their fame through victory in the war, thereby indirectly exerting influence over the Dragonhawk Star Domain, and developing this Star Domain as part of the outskirts of the ‘Iron Fury Stone’ sphere of influence.

Now, after they had already paid a heavy price, the gain they sought was intercepted by Gu Hang.

Even Erso, with his hundreds of years of life experience as a Battle Group Leader, struggled to remain composed.

He tried to breathe deeply, but still couldn’t suppress the annoyance in his heart.

“Fine, very well, Mr. Gu has done a great job.”

“However, the war isn’t over yet and our Fury Flame Battle Group will remain in the Dragonhawk Star Domain for a while, there will be time to come.”

With that, Erso ended the communication.

…

The last statement from Erso was clearly a threat.

But Gu Hang wasn’t concerned.

The death of Titus by his hand was not something he actively sought.

However, he similarly realized that he couldn’t allow Titus to escape alive back to the Green Skin lair, or else the subsequent extermination operations would become extremely challenging.

The rallying power of a Beastman chieftain was formidable. If he returned alive, it meant that during the Alliance’s operation to wipe out the four major Green Skin star sectors, they would face a unified and coordinated Green Skin realm.

Then, even if the Alliance could complete the extermination operation, the cost would be significantly different.

Thus, after learning about the internal chaos among the Green Skins, Gu Hang immediately deduced that the Iron-Tooth chieftain’s intention was to detour back to the Jiang Meiyu Sector. He led the main part of the fleet in advance to that sector, catching Titus’ returning fleet squarely.
