As the scope of the Alliance's offensive expands and the territories occupied grow larger, the risks previously buried become increasingly hard to ignore.
Resistance and non-cooperation on various planets; logistical difficulties after stretching the supply lines; the two tumors of Shangdong and Guangfeng growing at the throat; the ever-watchful Fury Fleet...
Even without considering these, Gu Hang must acknowledge one thing: the Alliance's current overall strength is still far inferior to the Iron Rage Stone, which controls an entire Cosmos Domain.
The main forces of Humphrey Paolo are still entangled in multiple battlefield directions.
But this does not mean their strength is gone.
It is possible to redeploy troops from the main battlefield or draw reinforcements from the original defensive forces in multiple Star Domains to provide support.
Even the naval fleet, with its long build cycle, could potentially be supplemented by the enemy at any moment.
