——The resistance organization led by Catherine now boasts thousands of similar bases scattered across the Empire's borders; this is just part of the combat power at one base.
Seeing so many people here, Yang Ming lowered his long legs from the edge of the console, cleared his throat, and put on a serious expression.
"Ahem! What I just said should not be spread; it was rely our perspective on current events, a rather unconventional viewpoint, with no reference value."
Yang Ming changed his tone:
"It's not that we can do nothing right now, rather it's that we can't do much.
"At present, the Emperor Guard System has completely lost control, it has freed itself from Levi's restraints because I got rid of Levi, and now the Emperor Guard System intends to take revenge on humanity.
"The only thing that can stop this Third Calamity is a high-dinsional civilization, but their stance is rather ambiguous, stating this is a trial that Milky Way's human civilization must undergo, implying that losing hundreds of billions of lives doesn't matter much to them."
It may even benefit them.
Of course, this part must never be said.
Yang Ming continued:
"Perhaps this is where the difference between high-dinsional civilization and us lies, we see human lives, they see civilization.
"Actually, I was just about to find you, Catherine."
"Hmm," Catherine smiled faintly at the corner of her mouth.
Because Yang Ming said he was just about to find her, it indicated that she hadn't been fully marginalized within Yang Ming's power structure.
Yang Ming said solemnly:
"Catherine, and everyone present, you might want to consider the course of the upcoming war.
"The Emperor Guard System's intention is destruction; it will unleash the Empire's military forces, eradicating enemies while also depleting its military strength; subsequently, self-preservation of the Empire will beco a huge issue, and the remaining military power of the Empire will prioritize protecting the Emperor Star Circle and Pan-Emperor Star Circle economic zone, where the population is greatest and economic scale largest, possessing a complete interstellar industrial system.
"Half of the Empire's planets will be abandoned defensively.
"Once the Emperor Guard System has exhausted the Empire's military forces, it's impossible for the Milky Way's human civilization to be completely annihilated; based purely on scale, the ultimate victor will unavoidably be human civilizations outside the Empire.
"These states will launch a frenzied counterattack, partly for those lost lives' vengeance, partly to plunder the Empire's resources to restore themselves.
"I harbour no sympathy for this Empire, but in such wars, the ones who suffer most casualties are ordinary people, the innocents.
"I will imdiately contact all human governnts; right now only I can barely resist the Emperor Guard System. I will summon them to unite, to choose the battlefield in space and prevent civilian casualties.
"The current issue is, what will happen to the Empire's peripheral planets after this war ends?
"Now there is only one route, which rests on you to execute.
"You must declare rebellion on these peripheral planets before the Emperor Guard System is defeated, it must happen before the Emperor Guard System's military forces are nearly exhausted.
"We had previously prepared so much strength to resist the Empire Central in the future, but everyone, now circumstances have shifted, we must utilize this rebellion to protect the lives of six hundred billion people at the Empire's periphery, then take the chance to spread the fla of revolution, the fla of freedom, to more regions of the Empire.
"Everyone, we face history, about to beco history, this ancient Empire deserves no ounce of sympathy, but the Empire's populace needs soone to stand up.
"Catherine."
"I'm here!"
Catherine's eyes sparkled with brightness.
"Do you understand my aning?"
"Understood! Righteous rebellion after the war! Declare independence and resist the Empire and the Emperor Guard System, to protect the people across the Empire's peripheries!"
Yang Ming nodded solemnly and, before cutting communication, specifically added:
"I trust you, Catherine, and trust that all warriors here can accomplish it."
The projection screen flickered out.
Yang Ming raised his eyebrows, turning to look at Lyu who had been waiting for a while.
"So, what's the situation?"
"Already sent the ssage to Princess Daphne! Princess Daphne is on a departing transport ship from Emperor Star, the ssage was conveyed quickly. Boss, the Second, Third, and Fourth Pioneers have simultaneously requested communication."
"Create a group chat for them."
Yang Ming smiled: "I also need to et with the heads of all governnts, I can't chat too long with just them."
Lyu:...
Expanding boss.
anwhile.
Daphne sat in the transport ship's lounge, stared at the avatar appearing on the communicator, and the brief ssage, slightly stunned, her eyes inexplicably beca sowhat moist, and her lips ford a smile.
She glanced out the porthole.
"Hanton... I'll safeguard them..."
