Starting from the Planetary Governor-Chapter 748 - 418, Consider Joining the Alliance?

Merely relying on the orbital bombardment in addition to the counterattack of the Planetary Defense Forces, the situation on Eagle Horse III was greatly alleviated.

The vanguard of the Alliance Navy left behind one destroyer, several armed merchant ships in orbit around Eagle Horse III to continue providing assistance, while also waiting for the arrival of the subsequent main forces. The rest pushed on, entering Eagle Horse VI, and then proceeded to the Star Sector Capital - Eagle Horse II.

Wherever the Alliance Navy went, the Green Skin Fleet dispersed!

They had no choice.

The vanguard of the Alliance Navy had several dozen ships, even though there were no cruisers, there were several destroyers. With this number and quality laid out there, those branches of the Green-skin Plundering Fleet could certainly not resist.

In fact, on Eagle Horse II, one Green-skin Plundering Fleet was bitten hard, losing four ships before managing to escape.

It can be said that once the Alliance Army entered the Eagle Horse Star Sector, the space, which had been utterly chaotic and almost completely left to the whims of the Green-skin Plundering Fleet, suddenly became quiet.

Humanity regained space, regained orbit, and the ground combat became much easier.

And at this time, the main force of the Alliance Army also entered Eagle Horse III.

They only made a brief stop here, where Gu Hang met the Planetary Governor of Eagle Horse III.

The latter had already signed the Seven Horse Treaty more than half a month ago, and the Alliance was here to fulfill the treaty.

The Governor of Eagle Horse III, holding the paper document of the Seven Horse Treaty, took a photo with Gu Hang.

Gu Hang left satisfied with the main forces of the Alliance.

Before leaving, he deployed eight divisions to Eagle Horse III.

One Skeleton Division, six infantry divisions, and one Armored Brigade, adding up to around 330,000 troops, all belonging to the ranks of the Alliance Army.

With them, the issues on Eagle Horse III should be resolved.

And indeed they were.

The participation of the Alliance Land Forces immediately turned the ground situation on Eagle Horse III, which had already improved due to the orbital bombardment, into a complete advantage.

Eagle Horse III was a world with approximately 800 million inhabitants, an agricultural plus mining planet, and the Green Skins had cumulatively committed about one million troops to this world.

The quality of the Planetary Defense Forces of Eagle Horse III was mediocre at best, and the scale was only about several million. Moreover, half of them had been drawn away by Yuan Chengchuan to Steel Wing Star, so they struggled greatly against the million-scale invasion of the Green Skins.

The idea of arming the entire population was hardly effective; they lacked the weaponry.

You can't expect civilians to fight the Green Skins with pitchforks and mining picks, right? That would be a pure slaughter.

In reality, the Green Skins already had a vague intention of taking root on the planet. After they defeated a Defense Army unit on the planet's tropical continent, they established an ecosystem and started planting mushrooms everywhere.

If left unchecked for a few years, there would be no need to send reinforcements from the Star Sea, as their own numbers would multiply on their own.

However, all of this was destroyed and undone by the arrival of the Alliance Army.

The first wave of orbital bombardment targeted the main forces of the orcs; the second wave took care of their ecosystem.

Afterward, once the Alliance Land Forces landed, according to the agreements of the Seven Horse Treaty, the colonel in command of the eight divisions became the supreme commander of the planetary battlefield. The nearly two million Planetary Defense Forces of Eagle Horse III also came under their unified command.

At the beginning, the Planetary Defense Forces were a bit reluctant.

Being military men, there is always some pride, and even the Planetary Defense Force felt this way. No matter what, they had been fighting bloody battles with the Green Skins for the past month, with severe losses. Even though they couldn't win, they had made sacrifices. The Alliance came to help us, and we're happy, but where does it say that we should hand over our authority all at once?

If it were the Star Realm Army, that might be acceptable, but we're all Defense Armies. Are you better just because you have more money?

However, the Governor of Eagle Horse III knew his stuff and under his strong orders, the Defense Army was fairly obedient.

Moreover, as the battles commenced, even the little bit of reluctance among the Defense Army's leaders and officers quickly evaporated.

No matter how reluctant, could they withstand the effectiveness of the other side?

Once assuming total command authority, the Alliance Land Forces had no intention of using the local troops as cannon fodder, a concern that had worried the local military. Although they required the participation of a million troops to fill the battle lines, that was pretty much their only role. For the real assault, the Alliance Land Forces rolled up their sleeves and got to work themselves.

The well-equipped Skeleton Division, using their own subordinate armored units as the spearhead, found an area to forcefully push into the tropical rainforest of Eagle Horse III.

Lion King led the Lions, mercilessly knocking down and crushing the jungle trees. Elite tanks equipped with anti-gravity engines did not care about the condition of the roads. Robust power and extremely capable tracks are standard issue; on muddy paths, when necessary, the activated anti-gravity devices substantially reduced the weight of the vehicle, even allowing it to hover a few centimeters above ground for a short time, capable of going through any rough terrain.

The Green Skin strongholds were uprooted one after another, and the Alliance soldiers following them quickly eliminated any threat. The Native Defense Forces behind them would just transport supplies, use flamethrowers to burn the mushrooms and clear the battlefield, and help clear the trees to make way as needed.

It was precisely because they accompanied the Alliance forces in doing this 'menial work' that they witnessed firsthand how the Alliance waged war.
