he was originally part of the Solar Auxiliary Army and now, along with the Otaubis Battle Group, had formed an expeditionary force to fight in the Spiderweb Domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And up until now, despite not knowing much about the greater scheme, from the orders he recently received, he could see some issues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the rapid advancement was halted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The content of his comrades’ discussions had been about competing with the Northern Line Army to see who could take down Reiaductus, the enemy’s stronghold, first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But suddenly, orders changed to hold positions and exert full force to eradicate the local insect infestation problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The infantry regiment he led had just taken down several digestion pools when they encountered swarming insect hordes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun Legion, among all the renowned Star Realm Army corps of the Empire, was considered top-tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Putting aside their level of training, in terms of equipment, as the direct unit of the Holy Terra Star Realm Legion, their standards were exceptionally high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they were just an infantry regiment, they had a substantial amount of heavy artillery and heavy bomb guns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These could even be considered regular weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to the three regular combat battalions, there was an elite combat battalion, fully equipped with exoskeletons!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the regiment’s artillery company, there were also two formidable mobile artillery vehicles—the Petrified Lizard Cannons!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These armed forces, combined with elite training, made his unit perform exceptionally valiantly in battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They not only held the line but also gathered many units that had retreated from other directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These units, recruited and armed locally, didn’t even reach the level of the Star Realm Army, merely the ordinary Planetary Defense Force, so one couldn’t expect too much from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Akangji executed military law on only a few who only thought of fleeing; the remaining troops were gathered to fill various front lines, bolstering the defensive strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They held out until reinforcements arrived, among which were even some Red Copper Warriors of the Otaubis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was preparing to receive orders from above for a major counteroffensive against the detestable insect swarms, a transfer order came, moving him and his forces away from the front line, leaving just some local Defense Army troops to hold the position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He protested this, believing that these Defense Army troops were far from sufficient for defense, which would lead to a disastrous situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the superior silenced him with just a phrase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know, but there’s nothing we can do; we have more important tasks to accomplish.”What was this so-called more important task?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guarding the starport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fleet bearing the banner of the Iron Armor Battle Group had already entered the Long Qi Star System and was advancing towards the planet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Planetary defense, with the starport being the utmost priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mission was to enter and hold the starport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The conflict between the Space Fleet and the planet’s orbital defense system was beyond his help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, living pods filled with insects were continually flying into the starport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The starport observation post he was guarding had been repeatedly attacked over the past two weeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to deal with not just the bugs escaping those living pods but also the infectees fighting alongside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These infectees were no longer the trash or scum encountered during the planet’s surface cleansing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all dressed in standard Star Realm Army equipment, and under the various bodily fluids and overgrown flesh, one could still faintly discern from their gray-purple attire that they were from the “Princess Legion.”At least they used to be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back when the Expeditionary Force had just arrived in the Magrey Cosmic Domain, he had clashed with the Princess Legion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to admit, this legion was a formidable opponent—not only was their equipment, supported by the so-called Alfonso Mechanical Sect, superior, but their training level was also stronger than some of the lesser-known Star Realm Legions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the “Princess Legion infectees” he was currently facing were even more formidable than he had remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difference lay in the stronger physical vitality of these infectees, who might not die even when shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, they truly feared neither life nor death, with no cases of morale collapse or retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, from another perspective, they might have weakened: the overall unit’s maneuvering and combat pattern changed significantly, resembling more like insect hordes rather than human troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This often led them to adopt particularly aggressive combat strategies, resulting in unnecessary casualties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nevertheless, the overwhelming numbers, plus real bugs nearby, wore them down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most critical battle came when three Interstellar Warriors in black-gray battle armor suddenly appeared before them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those were from the Iron Armor Battle Group!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Akangji’s elite combat battalion, which he was so proud of, suffered a brutal massacre.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as his defensive line was about to be irreversibly breached, an Otaubis Warrior arrived on the battlefield—bearing a round shield and a spear, clad in red copper armor with a lateral plume on the helmet, symbolizing his champion status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Single-handedly, he killed those three Iron Armor Interstellar Warriors, at the mere cost of taking a few hits, but he seemed unharmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the battle, just as Akangji went up to express his gratitude, he received new orders: counteroffensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that a power facility defended by a neighboring brother regiment had already been breached, and they were tasked with recapturing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the already heavy casualties, Akangji gritted his teeth and gathered what mobile forces he had left, handing them over to the Otaubis Warrior to take along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, they heard nothing further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What came next was that his troops had hardly caught their breath, not even having replenished their ammunition,\u003C\u002Fp>",1013,"2026-06-05T14:29:29.880Z",1,"novelbin.me","fecb4cb1b00b57992512e78d3887ce653685966e4dd51277f4d9e5347d19926a","starting-from-the-planetary-governor-chapter-1183","starting-from-the-planetary-governor-chapter-1181",1694,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-from-the-planetary-governor-cover.jpg"]
