BXBX NOVEL Chapter 206: Return To Shanhai Pass
Therefore, Liang Xingchen did not give them any chance at all. As soon as the nearly 7 million warships warped to the Capital Circle, they immediately launched a fierce attack.
Although the Scythian Civilization’s response was not slow, with the alarm sounding immediately and the 800,000 warships stationed in the area immediately intercepting the enemies, they could do nothing about the nearly 7 million Level 4 Civilization warships.
After the first wave of attack between the two sides, the Scythian’s Garrison Commander was stunned.
The number of opponents was already scary enough. Now, it turned out that the enemies were all Level 4 Warships? With this point, they could do nothing but surrender!
It’s a pity that no matter how much he tried contacting the other party, there was no response.
After only half an hour, the combat power of the Capital Circle of the Scythian Civilization was exhausted. It was completely slaughtered, with the wreckage of the warships the only signs of the tragedy that had occured.
Currently, on the Orion’s Arm Branch, apart from the Babawi Empire, there was no force that could resist the power of Liang Xingchen’s combined fleet!
After the defenders were wiped out, the combined fleet then began the merciless cleansing.
The strong preyed on the weak. If the situation was reversed and the Humans or the Io Federation was on the receiving end, they would also be wiped out by the Scythian Civilization.
The Scythians that were living a carefree life on planets located in various places within the Civilization’s borders were unaware that everyone in their Capital Circle had been slaughtered, and that the same thing would soon happen to them.

Time in the Interstellar Era always flies fast and it was now the 84th Year of the Federal Calendar.
Since Babarot changed his strategy, Lin Fan’s actions had been limited. As time passed, the Babawi Empire and their Level 3 Civilization fleets had been continuously deployed. Making the restriction become more and more serious.
After all, Lin Fan only had 100,000 warships in his hands. According to Barbarot’s deployment, each Trade Hub would have a Legion of Level 3 Civilization and thousands of Babawi Empire’s guard warships.
Although this defensive force was not strong, at least Lin Fan could easily crush every trade hub. But, it was almost impossible to continue the no-loss sweep.
Even if he had only lost dozens of warships every time he captured a Trade Hub, Lin Fan did not want that. For him, it was completely unnecessary.
The most important thing was that the Barbarot’s reinforcement of 7 legions had been put in place. The 3 million warships formed 30 interceptor fleets, comprising of 100,000 ships in each fleet.
Whenever Lin Fan’s location was discovered, these 30 interceptor fleets would immediately form an interception net!
Three of the fleets were responsible for pursuit and interception. The remaining 27 fleets were deployed in the Star System around the target, waiting for their target to come to them.
Under such circumstances, Lin Fan felt that it was pointless to continue. Anyway, their goal of adding oil to the fire between the two major alliances had already been achieved.
The Vera and Freedom Alliance were now fighting in the Galactic Passage.
As for their secondary goal, which was taking the opportunity to destroy part of the Babawi Empire’s Trade Hub network as much as possible, had also been achieved. In the past three years, Lin Fan had destroyed more than 200 Trade Hubs in the Babawi Empire.
Further, it had been more than a year since the Human Federation’s Secondary Arm Unity Operation began, which would definitely reach the ears of the Babawi Empire sooner or later.
After learning the news, the Babawi Empire would inevitably dispatch a large force. Hence, it was the appropriate time for Lin Fan to return to the Shanhai Pass and start working on the related arrangements.
“Will, it doesn’t make much sense to continue. Execute Evacuation Plan No. 3!”
“Yes, Commander!”
The so-called Evacuation Plan No. 3 was to retreat to the Shanhai Pass, while avoiding the Babawi Empire’s eyes.
As for how they will do it, it’s very simple. They just need to warp to an area where there were no Star Systems, and then make a second warp to the Shanhai Pass.
After all, even the Babawi Empire would not provide surveillance in areas where there were no Star Systems.
In their eyes, low-level Civilizations rely on Star Paths, while they were the only high-level Civilization on the entire Orion’s Arm Branch.
Hence, monitoring the empty areas was not only too much effort, it was also completely unnecessary.
Therefore, when Lin Fan used this empty area to avoid the Babawi Empire’s monitoring and retreated, in the eyes of the Babawi Empire, the “Lehman Empire fleet” just suddenly disappeared. They would only think that the Lehman Empire’s fleet had withdrawn to the Third Main Spiral Arm, and would not link it to the Human Federation at all.
Lin Fan also needed to dismantle the 100,000 replica Lehman Empire warships after returning to the Shanhai Pass, as well as destroying the corpses and any other remaining traces.
One week later.
“Still haven’t found any clues?”
Barbarot frowned on the bridge, as he asked his Adjutant.
“Yes, Lord Barbarot. For a month, no Trade Hub has been attacked!”
Had they withdrawn? Barbarot couldn’t help, but think so.
Another week had passed and there was still no trace of the “Lehman Empire Fleet”. At this time, Barbarot began to become convinced of his previous guess.
It should be his strategy working, and made the other party retreat upon realizing that they could not continue.
Barbarot looked over the information handed over by his Adjutant and analyzed it in his mind.
After thinking about it for a long time, Barbarot thought that the situation should be like this.
“Alright, let all of the Trade Hubs in the 12 major regions continue to be on alert for one year. We must thoroughly confirm whether the other party has really left!”
“Yes, Commander Barbarot!”
However, Barbarot was still very cautious and didn’t dare to be careless. God knows if the other party was just hiding, and waiting until they lowered their guard.
Therefore, he must maintain vigilance for a period of time!
However, what Barbarot didn’t know was that the “Lehman Empire Fleet” he was so worried about, did not retreat to the Third Main Spiral Arm as he thought. Instead, they went to a place (the Shanhai Pass), which was less than 100 light years away from him!
“I’m finally back, after almost 3 years!”
After exiting the warp state, Lin Fan looked at the Planet Vellas in front of him, slightly emotional.
