Yaduoduo came to a sudden stop, raised both hands above his head, his face showing not a trace of panic, instead revealing a confident smile.
He caught his breath and shouted loudly at Lianggenna:
"Big Boss! Calm down, how could I ever trick you?"
"I knew long ago that one-armed Shrimp Noble would act so impulsively!"
"Scattering our formation to hold them off is best, and if we can't hold them, it doesn't matter!" Yaduoduo pointed overhead, his voice loud and forceful.
"I knew from the very beginning that with our current fleet strength, we simply cannot stop the Empire's main warships."
"Rather than exhausting all our warships, it's better to deliberately show a flaw, making them think we're weak as can be, making them get carried away!"
Lianggenna furrowed his brow, his eyes full of doubt:
"Deliberately show a flaw? Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"If I'd told you in advance, Big Boss, you definitely couldn't have acted it out!" Yaduoduo spread his hands, looking helpless.
"Those Shrimps are very cunning; if we don't act convincingly enough, how could they dare to boldly enter the airspace above Duli?"
"How could they possibly focus all their attention on bombing us?"
"Now, all their warships have gathered in Dolido's near-Earth orbit, all their cannon fire aimed at the ground."
"Their rear must now be empty!" Yaduoduo's eyes lit up, his tone turning excited.
"I've already moved the Blood Axe and Evil Sun Clan's most elite assault fleet away!"
"A total of eighty of the fastest warships, led by the Red Crow, whom Blood Axe excels at ambush, hidden in Asteroid Belt No. 3 three days ago!"
"Just one day ago, I already sent them a signal."
"Now, they're rushing at full speed toward Kal II Space Station!"
"Kal II?" Lianggenna was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"You mean, attack their rear?"
"Exactly!" Yaduoduo nodded vigorously.
"All those Shrimps' supplies must pass through Kal II Space Station for transfer."
"As long as we take Kal II and cut off their supply line, they'll become turtles in a jar!"
"No ammunition, no fuel, no food; even if they have the most powerful warships, they'll only grow weaker and weaker!"
"And," Yaduoduo continued.
"Big Boss, think about it: Duli was previously the Shrimps' Agricultural World, very important to them."
"They definitely won't easily bomb this place into scorched earth; their ultimate goal must be to land on Duli and take this place back."
"They think bombing our surface buildings can weaken our strength."
"But they don't know our main force has long since moved underground to hide."
"When their landing troops come down, without the fleet's continuous fire support, our billions of Grots will swarm up and tear them all to pieces on the surface!"
The entire Underground Command Center fell silent.
All the War Bosses stared blankly at Yaduoduo, their faces showing expressions of disbelief.
They had never thought war could be fought this way.
First deliberately lose a round to lure the enemy deep in, then cut off their retreat, and finally close the door to beat the dog.
This was ten times more cunning than the most cunning Blood Axe Greenskins!
Lianggenna was also stunned, slowly putting down the Big Spoon in his hand.
He carefully pondered Yaduoduo's words, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.
Right, those Shrimps' fleet may be powerful, but they can't stay in the sky forever. They'll have to come down eventually.
As long as they dare to come down, without the big cannons from the sky supporting them, with our billions of Grots, why should we fear those tens of millions of Shrimps?
And if we really can take Kal II and cut off their supplies, then they'll truly be unable to fly away even with wings!
"Not, not bad!" Lianggenna slapped his thigh fiercely, the anger on his face mostly gone.
Although he wanted to keep a stern face to maintain his dignity as Big Boss, the upturned corners of his mouth showed his mood had improved.
"So that's how it is! I wrongly blamed you, Yaduoduo!"
Lianggenna took a big stride to stand in front of Yaduoduo, heavily patted his shoulder, nearly knocking Yaduoduo to the ground.
"Good! Do it as you say!"
"Pass the order down! All Grots hide underground, none are allowed to show their heads!"
"Preserve our living strength; when the Shrimps' landing troops come down, we'll rush out and chop them all into mincemeat!"
"Yes, Big Boss!" the surrounding War Bosses replied in unison.
Yaduoduo breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
That was really close just now; I almost got chopped into mincemeat by Lianggenna.
But everything was within his plan.
He raised his head, looking at the rocks overhead, his eyes deep.
One against seven; this time, how will you respond?
The sky above Duli.
The Imperial Fleet's bombardment continued.
Countless beams of Light and Bao Dan rained down on the surface as if they cost nothing; every Explosion kicked up clouds of dust and Flame.
The once lush Mushroom Fields had turned into a sea of fire At This Moment.
Dominic specifically ordered the use of "Storm Flame Torpedo" torpedoes designed to target plants.
After detonation, this kind of torpedo forms a vortex of raging flames several kilometers in diameter, with temperatures reaching thousands of degrees, capable of burning all organic matter to ash.
One Tornado Fire Torpedo after another shot from the Escort Ship's launch tubes, silently crashing into one Mushroom Field after another.
Massive vortices of raging flame rotated and moved continuously across the surface.
Where they passed, all Mushrooms, Squigs, and Green Skins who failed to dodge in time instantly turned to coke.
Rolling Black Smoke rushed straight into Cloud, dyeing Duli's Sky black.
The air was permeated with a pungent Burnt Smell and the special Smell of burning Mushrooms.
"Report Adult, landmark building number one has been completely destroyed!"
"Report, the Technical Overlord Workshop in Area three has been destroyed!"
"Report, Mushroom Fields in Areas three through seven are burning, the fire is already out of control!"
Good reports arrived at the James Tong's Bridge one after another.
Dominic stood before the Holographic Star Map, watching targets marked "destroyed" one by one, his expression calm.
All this was within his plan; he enjoyed this kind of war where he could control everything.
"Adult, our Ammunition has already been Consumed by One Third."
Just then, the Deputy Officer cautiously reminded: "According to plan, we should prepare to Retreat."
Dominic nodded, glancing at the time.
The bombardment had already Lasted a full half hour.
The targets that should be bombed have basically all been bombed.
"Alright." Dominic said with some reluctance.
"Prepare to execute the final wave of attacks."
"All Warships, aim at the landmark buildings, fire all 'Mole' Missiles!"
"After firing, Retreat immediately, return to Kal II!"
"Yes, Adult!"
With Dominic's Command, over a dozen Imperial Warships simultaneously opened their Abdomen missile launch bays.
One pitch-black Mole Missile after another whistled out, like black Arrows, stabbing into Duli's surface.
These Mole Missiles are equipped with special armor-piercing ground-penetrating warheads, able to Penetrate dozens of meters of rock and concrete, exploding in the Depth underground.
Their Target is precisely the Green Skins Possibly hiding underground.
