Chapter 1174 - 635: The Rebellion ContinuesChapter 1174: Chapter 635: The Rebellion Continues
In this universe, hoping for the complete end of war is purely a luxury.
Even the so-called Alamita Victory has become a certainty, and the Alfonso Sect has lost all capability for active offense. The Alliance Military’s leadership is already happily uncorking champagne.
But in reality, the ground war in Alamita hasn’t ended.
It’s estimated that at least 200 million rebel forces are still active, and the total population in their controlled regions might exceed 2 billion.
However, despite all this, it’s still just a minor itch.
Having cut off external support from the Alfonso Sect, the local rebels incited in Alamita are like grasshoppers after summer, unable to jump for long.
The Alliance Army hasn’t further reinforced the ground, maintaining the current troop strength is sufficient to solve the problem. The remaining forces needed for suppressing the rebellion will be sourced locally from Alamita.
After Waluk was arrested and Alfonso’s main fleet was shattered, Moro, which was once in turmoil internally with unstable rule, suddenly became as stable as Mount Tai. Those local forces that were once unsettled are now lining up to prove their loyalty.
For the local rebels still resisting stubbornly, it’s the perfect proving ground.
It would be more accurate to say that the Alliance Army is more of a supervisor than the main force in quelling the rebellion.
The outcome of this war is destined, but the war itself can be utilized.
The cleansing that Moro wants can be carried out here.
Not a traitor? Very loyal? Then deal a heavy blow to the rebels, fight to near annihilation, that’s also proving loyalty to the God of All Machines and Governor Gu Hang.
If they are traitors and have defected to the rebels, then it’s nothing to worry about. They’re just useless waste; gather them up and deal with them.
According to Moro, once the surface war in Alamita ends, he will return a loyal Alamita to Gu Hang.
Even if the war is ongoing, it’s actually a minor affair.
Across the entire Founding World, the most important task right now is to restore productivity, especially to restore shipbuilding capabilities.
On Alamita, there is a total population of 30 billion. The vast majority are various types of laborers, technical workers, and machine servants. Even the world’s grain self-sufficiency rate is very low. Despite a number of starch factories, a considerable amount of grain needs to be imported from outside.
The dozens or hundreds of worlds surrounding Alamita actually serve this Founding World by providing grain, population, and various resources.
The greatest value of the Founding World is naturally in itself; however, to fully exploit these values, the power of the surrounding dozens or hundreds of worlds must be coordinated before it can be achieved.
Fortunately, after the Alliance shattered Alfonso’s main fleet, things became much easier for the worlds around Alamita. A significant portion was already taken by the Alliance during its advance. The remaining worlds, whether they capitulate in the face of winds or require a small army to take them and expend some effort, are not difficult to subdue.
Currently, the production capacity of the whole Alamita is about 15% of its peak. And with the ongoing cleansing, rebellion suppression process stabilization, and the restoration of resource supplies from surrounding worlds… this figure will continue to rise over time.
Even the current 15% shouldn’t be underestimated.
It means the shipbuilding industry can be preliminarily initiated; it means Alliance ships, even those severely damaged or newly seized, won’t need to find towing vessels to carry them two Star Domains away to homeland shipyards for repairs. Repairs, maintenance, and modifications can be carried out right on Alamita.
This saves a lot of time, because the round trip would take almost a year.
Not to mention, some important shells, aircraft, and army equipment production are very crucial, and nearby supplies can be replenished.
Alamita is Gu Hang’s most valued asset.
Unfortunately, the other two Founding Worlds of the Alfonso Sect are not as easy to seize as Alamita.
On one hand, there isn’t someone like Moro who can help Gu Hang unify those worlds. On the other hand, seeing Alfonso Sect’s arriving army, almost all composed of infected individuals and Insect Race bio-modifiers, one can imagine what kind of state the remaining two Founding Worlds are in.
Gu Hang is extremely pessimistic about this.
He believes those two Founding Worlds probably aren’t salvageable, and they may have to be destroyed eventually.
This can be gleaned from another point.
The battleship snatched back by Gu Hang, during its return for overhaul, revealed numerous instances of ’desecration technology.’
Not only was the chapel transformed into a spiritual desecration of the Four-Armed God Emperor, but several biochemical structures were used within the ship. Materials resembling Insect Race chitin were arranged in many places; there are even several digestive pools, incubation pools, and other facilities onboard.
Waluk had little time and couldn’t transform the whole ship into a Biological Ship from start to finish; otherwise, it would be useless even if taken back.
Yet, even so, dismantling and revamping all these desecration technologies on Alamita will take considerable time.
If even the ships bear such marks, what state must the two Founding Worlds have been brought to?
The Alliance has already dispatched small ships carrying agents and surveillance devices to those two Founding Worlds.
Carrying out subversion is likely hopeless, but at least confirming if those two Founding Worlds are as ruinous as Gu Hang anticipates is necessary.
As for why not directly taking advantage of the victory and pressuring those two worlds with an army, it’s mainly because the Alliance Fleet needs recuperation.
The Alliance Fleet wasn’t lightly damaged either.
Anyhow, most of Alfonso’s main ships have been destroyed, and it will certainly take a year or two to construct new ones, so those two Founding Worlds won’t run away, no need for excessive concern.
Additionally, Gu Hang has gained quite a considerable amount of Gift Points from this war.
He intends to spend them wisely.
The first priority is to replenish the troops lost by Furyflame, New Age Torch, and Shadow Battle Group during the battle.
The three battle groups together sacrificed nearly a thousand soldiers.
This is equivalent to the total annihilation loss of a battle group.
Without their sacrifice, victory in the Alamita Campaign couldn’t have been achieved.
But overall, while replenishing the loss of Interstellar Warrior forces costs many Gift Points and money, for the current Gu Hang, it’s entirely affordable.
