Chapter 1155: Chapter 627_2

After Moro went down, he was able to realize the serious challenges he was about to face.

With the backing of the hundreds of millions of Alliance Army troops landing on Alamita’s surface continuously, he launched a series of purges internally.

There were many casualties.

Up to now, it’s still hard to tell how many of them are genuine rebels or were forced to rebel by brutal means.

But overall, previously, the various rebellions on the planet were within controllable limits.

Although the Alliance Army was quite busy, having to dispatch troops everywhere and suppress uprisings all over, these were mainly pacification operations: executing the die-hards, capturing the suspects, and sending them to concentration camps. How to deal with them specifically was the Alamita Sect’s business, and the Alliance did not intervene too much.

The scale of battles was generally not large.

Even in the worst places, it wasn’t quite a war, at best just a military operation.

Until now, a large-scale rebellion broke out from the Bottom Nest District in an important industrial Nest Capital cluster in the southern hemisphere.

Initially, it was the Alamita Sect’s army that went to suppress it.

They claimed to have suppressed it, but soon, reports of unrest kept coming from adjacent areas, and yet they also claimed to have suppressed them quickly.

Alamita Sect was a bit skeptical and requested the Alliance to send in an infantry division, along with investigators.

Once they entered, it was as if they stepped into a black hole, and there was no news at all.

At this point, the seriousness of the problem was realized.

The Alamita’s own troops were unreliable, and no one knew how many potential traitors were hidden among the reformatted units. The troops that went ahead for suppression were not eliminated but defected on a large scale.

In this case, the Alliance’s own forces had to step in.

A division wasn’t enough, so an entire army group was deployed.

But the scale of the rebellion was underestimated.

That army group, after entering, encountered a fierce siege.

Surprisingly, a large number of combat drones with a half-mechanical, half-insect race structure appeared.

These formidable units were numerous, and even the elite Navy Marine Corps found it tough to deal with them, not to mention the ordinary Alliance Army.

An army group of the Alliance forces couldn’t instantly collapse, but they struggled to hold onto a few places, suffering heavy losses.

Subsequently, the Alliance Army Command Center began to reinforce the troops.

One army group after another was deployed, until finally, even an entire army group cluster was positioned there.

But soon, another region in the southern hemisphere also erupted in turmoil, even larger in scale.

Another army group cluster was sent there.

By this point, the over a hundred million troops of the Alliance seemed strained.

Although only two army group clusters were involved, and three remained unchanged.

There was a fear that any movements could intensify the situation beyond the southern hemisphere’s two Nest Capital clusters, potentially causing a global upheaval.

In fact, once those two Nest Capital clusters were largely controlled, rather severe situations arose.

Setting the political implications aside, the most crucial military aspect was the orbital cannon fortresses they controlled.

Some of these fortresses were independently in the wilderness, while others were set up within the Nest Capitals.

Their cannons were aimed at the planet’s outer orbit and fired fiercely.

The Alliance Fleet faced threats from within.

Engage in ground combat? Cover the army?

A costly move.

Moreover, there was a fear of Waluk’s fleet taking the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack.

If the ground couldn’t be defended in time and was hit by Waluk’s fleet, there was a real risk of a devastating defeat.

The Alliance Fleet was forced to retreat, avoiding the areas covered by the orbital cannons of those two southern hemisphere regions.

Meanwhile, the Starport, Star Fortress, and Armed Space Station defense systems all had to alter their orbits around the planet, lest they get attacked when flying over the anti-orbital firepower areas.

With this space given up, the disadvantage expanded rapidly.

Waluk’s fleet gained a window of opportunity for an offensive.

They still didn’t dare to pressure with their entire fleet, after all, most orbital cannons on the ground were still under Alliance control, along with the orbital defense system.

However, they could perform operations in that space region controlled by the rebels.

Though the corresponding airspace was quite limited, it was relatively safe to send more support to the ground.

These rebels, coercing and inciting a huge number of locals, were under-equipped.

They had controlled many weapons factories within the Founding World and began to ramp up production. Yet, the limited controlled area, incomplete production lines for high-end equipment, large weapons, insufficient resources, etc., constrained their production capacity.

Thus, the Waluk Fleet could directly supplement them from space.

Heavy tanks, Titans, Knight Order, and more bio-mechanical soldiers made from Insect Race technology.

After the Alliance reinforced their troops, the ground situation which was initially suppressed once again worsened drastically.

A naval battle by now had remarkably turned into a pivotal ground conflict.

In an unexpected turn, Yelisia had to respond.

She began to further deploy troops to the ground, even sending the Interstellar Warriors.

New Torch, Furyflame had sent in personnel.

Yet, Yelisia was somewhat disappointed with their combat abilities.

As a result, she secretly dispatched three battalions of the Shadow Battle Group down.

These warriors, clad in gray, unmarked Power Armor, focused particularly on targeting several orbital cannon fortresses.
