The victory of the Temir Campaign was certainly a major triumph.
Whether one looked at the scale of the war, the exchange ratio between the two sides, or the influence the war wielded, describing it as ‘major’ was no overstatement.
In terms of scale, the battle had actually lasted for more than three years, with over 6 billion troops from both the Green Skins and humans engaging in combat, using an entire planet as the battlefield; at sea, the combined fleets had totaled more than six hundred warships.
In terms of influence, the outcome of the Temir Campaign would directly affect the situation along the entire Eastern Star Domain’s frontline and indirectly the entire Star Domain’s war.
And the exchange ratio was even more exaggerated.
Combining the three years, more than 700 million human soldiers perished on the surface of Temir No.5, primarily composed of Pact Army, but the Alliance Army had also spilled blood here, a non-negligible 60 million.
But the Green Skins’ losses were more terrifying. They had accumulated a loss of 50 billion in living forces, and the remaining 20 billion had no way out either.
Those that emerged from the local ecosystem were, after all, in the minority; most reinforcements were transported from other planets.
It is true that Green Skins could grow from the ground and at a rapid pace, but a loss of over 7 billion in one go was unquestionably a severe blow in the short term.
Yet, these were not the greatest losses the Green Skins had suffered.
The greatest losses were their ships.
During the naval battle just beyond the orbit of Temir No.5, the Green Skin Fleet saw one hundred and ninety-three of its ships destroyed by the Human Fleet, a tally meticulously recorded by the navy.
Furthermore, of the more than one hundred warships that fled, eighty-four were gradually taken out during the pursuit.
Roughly thirty warships were left, but they didn’t manage to escape either. The humans had sealed all five jump points of the Temir Star System, forcing the Green Skins into a blind flight via conventional sailing methods, fleeing outside the Star System.
They had run too far, almost leaving the Star System, beyond the normal range covered by Star Language Towers and Stargazing Towers. The Human Fleet couldn’t chase beyond the bounds of the Star System—that was simply too far, and without communication from the Star Speech Towers or navigation from the Stargazing Towers, there was a risk of getting lost in space, with a chance of not returning.
But the Green Skin Fleet chased into the unknown cosmos would encounter the same problems. They too navigated the Star Sea with the aid of Star Realm Tunnels. Without Star Realm Tunnels, they too would become lost in the cold, dark expanse of space. By the time they made their way back, or if luck carried them to another Star System, who knows how many years would have passed.
Those Green Skin ships that plunged into the dark cosmos were basically no longer capable of posing a threat.
From this perspective, the Green Skins’ three hundred ships were as good as entirely destroyed.
And the cost to humankind was merely about twenty ships, mostly small ones at that.
The sea battle portion was an even more exaggerated victory than the ground combat that had raged for three years, achieving an exchange ratio of 1:10.
With that in mind, it was only natural for the Temir Campaign to be rated as an ‘epic triumph’ by the system.
[Temir Campaign Summary: Resounding Victory, awarded 8,784,990 Grace Points]
Seeing the information on the campaign summary screen, Gu Hang couldn’t control the expression on his face, beaming with joy!
Not in vain had he spent so much time, a full two and a half years, fighting this battle.
The Temir Campaign had lasted for so long, accumulating countless Grace Points in the pool, which he had swept up with absolute strength, achieving a resounding victory at a relatively small cost, and cashed them out in one fell swoop at a very high coefficient.
“Just over a satisfying victory, shouldn’t there be a higher appraisal? Perhaps it should be called ‘Epic Victory’?”
“But to achieve that level of appraisal, it’s probably very difficult. I imagine the hard requirements include having one’s own strength be about equal or even less than the enemy’s, and still winning the battle with a small ratio of casualties, all the while the war’s influence must be significant. Only then can one obtain the highest coefficient of appraisal.”
“The influence and casualty ratio of the Temir battle surely met the conditions. However, being smaller in size than the enemy, that was not satisfied at all.”
“But Gu Hang didn’t care.”
“Real warfare isn’t playing games, and there’s no option for Gu Hang to reload and retry. He wouldn’t risk deploying a small number of troops for a big win just to get a high appraisal, to get more appraisal points.”
“If possible, he would rather every war hereafter be won with a superior number of troops overwhelming the enemy.”
“A lower score doesn’t matter. What’s crucial is ensuring victory, keeping our own troop losses to a minimum.”
“Besides, 8.8 million Grace Points made Gu Hang very satisfied, the equivalent to eight times the earnings of the Steel Wing Star campaign.”

“It’s quite normal to have so much. In total over three years, this naval battle’s achievements were three times that of the Steel Wing Star campaign; the ground battle results were dozens of times greater.”
“Even if the majority of Green Skins eliminated on the ground were of the lesser kind, the quantity is still evident.”
“It’s quite normal for the Grace Points to be high.”
“With these 8.8 million Grace Points, many of Gu Hang’s subsequent plans could go much smoother!”
“…”
“After the Temir battle concluded with absolute superiority, the benefits for Gu Hang weren’t just the income from Grace Points.”
“The destruction of three hundred Green-Skinned Warships and seven billion Green Skins meant that the Dragonhawk Star Domain’s eastern part was wide open to the Alliance.”
“Moving forward with strategy, whether pushing north to pierce through the Green Skins’ four major Star Sectors or southwest to pincer the main force led by the Beastman chieftain, there was one unavoidable target, and that was the Golden Pass Star Sector itself.”
“While pursuing the Green Skin Fleet, the Firebath Nova, accompanied by a hundred warships, also bombarded Temir No.5.”
“These two tasks continued for over half a month until the system’s settlement appeared, heralding a final conclusion. Then Gu Hang ordered the main forces to advance into the depths of the Golden Pass Star Sector.”
“Leaving behind thirty ships to continue supporting the remaining battles on Temir No.5, the Firebath Nova and ten cruisers, carrying over two hundred million Alliance Army troops and almost one billion Pact Army troops brought over from the Alliance rear, formed the total military force for the mission across the entire Golden Pass Star Sector.”
“1.2 billion wasn’t the limit of the Alliance’s forces, but it was the limit for the Alliance to transport troops across Star Sectors simultaneously. For this, the Alliance mobilized more than thirty Colossal Belly Transport Ships. Each Colossal Belly could carry a group army of twenty million, accounting for six hundred million. The remaining six hundred million were crammed into the various warships and armed merchant ships.”
“This was the utmost limit of the transport capacity; any larger, and the fleet would have to drop off people, equipment, and supplies before making another trip. Counting the time for loading and unloading, it would take at least several months, close to half a year.”
“From this, one can see the value of transport ships.”
“But for now, with a total military force of 1.2 billion, plus two hundred and fifty Human Warships, there was an absolute advantage over the remaining Green Skin forces in the entire Golden Pass Star Sector.”
