When the Yanhuang tribe was recovering, the Tianhu Empire was also recovering from its injuries. In the Battle of Storm Fortress, they were defeated too badly, and one-third of their troops were lost there, which made the Tianhu Empire's troops nervous unprecedentedly. What's more serious is the internal problems of the empire. Countless families have begun to contact the four kingdoms, and they have begun to bet on the Yanhuang tribe, which is naturally aggravated by the Tianhu Empire.

Tianhu Tiehai seemed to have come out of the shadow of failure. His hair turned a lot whiter in just a few years and people looked much older, but he had endless energy and worked hard every day.

First, Tianhu Tiehai reintegrated its troops and incorporated many private troops from aristocratic families, launching ruthless attacks on the disobedient nobles. Many families were even destroyed by him. Although the Tianhu Empire was severely damaged, its strength was still there. Although the four kingdoms had developed slightly, their overall strength was still the empire's absolute advantage. The Yanhuang clan was beyond the reach of it. Therefore, it would take a minute to destroy some nobles. Tianhu Tiehai's high-pressure policy incorporated a considerable number of troops, but unfortunately it also offended the aristocratic class. Tianhu Tiehai did not take this seriously. Anyway, those nobles were fence-bearing, and they would never die with the Tianhu family. They were potential traitors. Of course, Tianhu Tiehai also highly rewarded for those loyal families.

Secondly, the Tianhu Iron Sea will divide the areas at the junction of the two major war zones, integrating all its forces, and dividing four major war zones, namely the First and Fourth War Zones, bordering the Eastern Theater Command are the First and Second War Zones. The Third and Fourth War Zones are bordered by the Storm War Zone. After these four war zones are integrated, they all have the strength of 600 front-line army groups. This is already the troops drawn by the Tianhu Empire to do its best. However, this force can only defend these four major war zones. When it comes to attack, they basically have no ability. After a crushing defeat, it will take at least several years for the Tianhu Army to recover its confidence in a battle.

Again, in terms of economy, the Tianhu Empire has increased the construction of defense equipment for various planets and fortresses. At the same time, it invested more manpower and material resources to develop and stimulate economic development. At the same time, it announced the implementation of wartime economic policies for fifteen years. He hoped to stimulate economic development through various new policies. The Tianhu Empire has emptied its wealth. Even if it has enough army, the reserves in the national treasury are no longer enough to fight a war. Without money, nothing can be done. This is common sense.

Fourth, the army was reorganized to further eliminate the star-level warships and produce more Galaxy-class warships. After years of war, Tianhu Tiehai has understood that those warships with weak defense have basically zero survival power on the battlefield, and the warships that have killed one shot have no room for survival. Therefore, what they need is warships with stronger firepower and stronger defense power. At the same time, they ordered researchers from the Academy of Sciences to study new types of warships. Of course, these aspects require a lot of investment, and it is not easy to go further with a scientific system that has reached a peak.

The most outstanding thing about Tianhu Tiehai is to send troops to capture all the families of all the officers and soldiers of Gaoshan Yuanyue's troops and transport them to the Eastern Theater Command to Gaoshan Yuanyue. Of course, it was just returned to the people, but all the property of these families was confiscated. Gaoshan Yuanyue didn't say anything about this. They were all treason, but it was better for the country to destroy all their families. They also sent back the people. What was the confiscation of some property? Tianhu Tiehai has achieved the ultimate and righteousness.

The Tianhu Empire has complained about the result of Tianhu Tiehai's handling of this matter. But Tianhu Tiehai said it all: "If we kill the families of those traitors, the biggest benefit is the Yanhuang clan. Even if Gao Shan Yuanyue doesn't want to fight with us, can his subordinates not fight with us? I will return their families and they will fight with us in the future, so they will at least have three points of mercy. Even if they capture the planet, they will not slaughter their own people. Therefore, I will not do such stupid things as slaughtering them."

Regarding Tianhu Iron Sea's move, the new commander-in-chief of the First War Zone of the Empire, Sanshu, who was the new commander of the First War Zone, publicly expressed support: "Marshal Takayama has done his best on the battlefield. He did not make any mistakes. If I were in his position, I made the same choice as him. Therefore, in this matter, we must first reflect on whether our own reasons have made him betray the Empire. As for killing their families, this is definitely the stupidest thing. I don't want to fight against the previous army that specializes in seeking revenge and fighting for the death." Most officers and soldiers of the Empire's army expressed their support for Tianhu Iron Sea, and Tianhu Iron Sea's support rate in the army has not decreased but increased.

Sun Tiejian also commented on this: "I am really a man with the title of Military God. He is a man who is more careful than others when doing things. If he slaughtered the families of the surrendered, he could intimidate people in a short time and prevent the officers and soldiers from surrendering again. But in the long run, it will only make the officers and soldiers disinterest. Officers and soldiers are also humans and have feelings. They surrendered for the sake of the emperor's orders, but they surrendered under the orders of the superiors, but they were unable to accept the result of their family being killed. Therefore, I would like to praise Marshal Tianhu for this move, although this is not a good thing for me, Yanhuang clan. However, this also reminds me that Marshal Tianhu is really our strong enemy. I will definitely be careful of him in the future." The enemy said this, and the matter calmed down.

Regarding Tianluo Zhongshi, Tianhu Tiehai intended to put him in the Fourth War Zone as the commander-in-chief, but he couldn't bear to leave it because a talented person like Tianluo Zhongshi is more suitable to serve as the chief of the General Staff by his side. The military has nothing to say about Tianluo Zhongshi as the Chief of the General Staff of the Empire. Tianluo Zhongshi has already explained many problems with his talents. Of course, there are objections, but that doesn't matter. However, Tianluo Zhongshi resisted this appointment a little, but Tianhu Tiehai said: "Loyal, accept it, I need your help." Tianluo Zhongshi could only accept it.

On this day, after repairing the cumbersome documents, Tianluo came to Tianhu Tiehai's home. In order to facilitate the nearby command, Tianhu Tiehai personally served as the commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone. His home was located on Tianyong Star in the Third War Zone. This is a fortress-style planet. Naturally, there are no entertainment facilities, and all the troops are in and out. At most, they just go online and play online games.

The two sat down, touched the cups in their hands, and drank all the wine in the glass. Tianluo Zhongshi poured the wine for their cups. "Zhengshi, what do you think we should do next?" "Your Excellency, I think. In the next ten years, we are like the Yanhuang clan, and basically can't do anything." "Oh, what is your reason?" "It's very simple. We all need time to calm the trauma of the previous battle. The Yanhuang clan needs more time to digest their occupied land. If it's just occupied but cannot be digested,

Then what the Yanhuang tribe did was meaningless. The nature of this war has changed. The Yanhuang tribe is no longer a guerrilla force. Their strategic purpose is no longer to defeat our army, but to obtain more territory, more planets and mineral stars from our army. Obtain more resources to develop their army. Therefore, the change of strategic goals will inevitably lead to a change in the war pattern. What they are more important is to occupy and digest the territory rather than attack our army blindly, which will not be of any benefit to the Yanhuang tribe."

"It makes sense, then, what should we do at this stage?" Tianhu Tiehai agreed. Tianluo Zhongshi also expressed comfort for having such a boss. It is comfortable to talk to smart people. The other party can easily understand what you said. "At this stage, we must restore our strength as quickly as possible. Your new policy has a certain promotion effect on us, but the side effects are not small. Therefore, your new policy cannot be implemented for a long time, which will damage our roots. Therefore, we have to buy time and leave us with less time."

"When should the Yanhuang tribe launch a large-scale attack on us?" "If you do not return the family members of Marshal Takayama's troops to the family, the war should start in five years, and now, it should start in fifteen years. Marshal Takayama's troops will be grateful to you, so they should not try so hard to ask for battle. In fact, they do not want to fight with you head-on." Tian Luo honestly flattered Tianhu Tiehai.

"Five years? Fifteen years? With the existing strength of the Yanhuang clan, can they recover their vitality within fifteen years?" "If you think so, then our army will be in danger. The Yanhuang clan's production capacity was limited before, so the number of troops was not large, and the population under its control was not too large, so it was their best to form 200 frontier armies. Now, with the manpower of the Marshal's headquarters and the production machines they seized from our two major war zones, plus all the production machines on the Wingfeather Star, their production capacity has become very powerful. If my estimate is correct, with sufficient raw materials, the equipment they supplemented every year will reach more than three frontier armies. This number is still the current number. When the production capacity is greatly developed, they will supplement more every year. Believe me, within a hundred years, they will be able to supplement at least five hundred frontier armies."

"After hundreds of years of development, the Winged Female has accumulated very strong industrial strength. The guy Tianhu Tiezhi planned to become king, but he had no such fate. In the end, he had made a wedding dress for the Qianfeng Tie Armor. My poor cousin." Although he said pitiful, Tianhu Tiehai's tone had an indescribable sarcasm in his tone.

Tianluo smiled sincerely and said, "Your Excellency, that's already a thing of the past, isn't it? However, you, now, our army is no longer able to attack, and in the next thirty years, I believe that the Yanhuang tribe does not have enough strength to launch a large-scale attack like the last one. This time, the territory they occupied is enough to make them eat very well. Before they cultivate more talents, they are not able to digest more territory. Therefore, I think that in the next 50 years, it will be a strategic stalemate between our army and the Yanhuang tribe. Even if there is a war, it will be just a small battle, and there is nothing big or small. What really worries me is the domestic situation. The four kingdoms have received the help of the Yanhuang tribe, and the situation of our army's encirclement and suppression troops is not optimistic."
