One of the Sea Spider dignitaries who raised his hand twice said:

"I think I can accept it whether I bow to the empire or form an alliance with humanity, as long as my interests and assets are safe."

Several other sea spiders who also raised their hands nodded and said the same thing as him.

"Both are 21 votes."

The black sea spider said loudly:

"The votes are all the same. It was originally a tie, but I received a commission from the commander-in-chief of Quelta Fortress two hours ago. His opinion is that if the war is unfavorable, the alliance with humans can be given priority."

Someone in the command room suddenly exclaimed, and some didn't believe it. He waved his hand and said:

"I know some people don't believe it, but this is a fact. Commander Quelta told me that human civilization is higher than ours. Not only do they have stronger technology than us, but they also have super flagships like Titan. He is putting pressure there.

It's very big. Without support, he can't guarantee that he can persist forever and not rule out the possibility of surrendering to humans in desperate situations, so..."

He looked at the sea spider dignitaries and said loudly:

"Humanity is very powerful. Even the empire may not be able to defeat them. We are now allied with them and signed an agreement to help humanity defeat the empire and gain the independent existence of the tribe. Even if we become a vassal, we will lose more than what we will lose after being unified by the empire.

Make yourself stronger.”

After everyone listened, they started talking a lot, but judging from the current situation, many of those who were undecided had already begun to take a trend.

After a while, someone said:

"If Commander Quelta makes a decision, then I take back what I just said and decide to support the alliance with humanity."

"I agree."

"I agree."

In just a short while, seven or eight people changed their minds. The black spider man looked at the commander-in-chief and said:

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, you have seen the results."

The commander-in-chief sighed:

"I saw."

Black Spider-Man nodded:

"Then contact the human fleet on the opposite side to cease the war."

"Sadly, this may not work."

The commander-in-chief of the Shatar fleet stood up in the astonished eyes of the sea spider dignitaries and the fleet staff, and calmly announced:

"I have contacted Locke Fortress one day ago and submitted a letter of surrender to the empire. Judging from the time, reinforcements from Locke Fortress will arrive in one day."

"you...."

All the sea spiders stood up with shock on their faces, and the black spider pointed directly at him and shouted:

"You are betraying the tribe!"

But the commander-in-chief just clapped his hands expressionlessly. The door to the command room was pushed open, and a group of heavily armed soldiers walked in and rushed straight towards the many Black Spider dignitaries present.

"What are you doing? How dare you!"

No matter how much they yelled and cursed, they could not change the result of being captured by the guards. After everyone was captured, the commander turned his head and said expressionlessly:

"You should take a good rest and wait until the situation stabilizes before we let you out."

The black sea spider pointed at him and cursed:

"What you do will put the tribe into dire straits. You are the sinner of the tribe."

"Put it down!"

He waved his hand expressionlessly, and the guards escorted away many of the Sea Spider dignitaries who were still yelling, leaving only a few dignitaries who agreed with his decision.

Soon there were only a dozen people left in the command room. He took a long breath and said loudly:

"Time will prove that my choice is right!"

After speaking, he turned to the staff group on the other side who were still in shock and said:

"I order the fleet to fight while retreating. The second brigade must assemble and prepare for the rear. The first brigade and the third brigade are preparing to retreat, all the way back to the confines of Star City."

Li Qing, who was on Titan, quickly discovered the abnormal movements of the enemy fleet. After some thought, he thought:

"Do they want to withdraw to Star City and use Star City's super firepower to compete with us?"

"But even though Star City's firepower is strong, it can't change the situation."

He didn't think too much, he just retreated. It was easy to get out, but it was not so easy to retreat. The speed of fighting and retreating would definitely not be as fast as before. It would not take more than ten hours to retreat at all.

Ten hours is enough time to sink all the flagships and defeat the opponent's remaining aircraft fleet. At least one-third of the battleships must be left behind. Even with the fire support of Star City, there will be no trouble.

He looked at Chu Yuan and said nothing, but Chu Yuan nodded as if he knew what he wanted to say, and quickly issued a series of targeted fleet mobilization orders.
