Ren Tao’s plan was, to say the least, insane, but it was the only hope the troopers had left. The troopers had conflicted feelings about his plan. On the one hand, they wished to know the latest information about the Hope, but on the other, they were afraid to find out. If not for their impressive constitution, they would have ended up languishing in despair.
There were two keys to pulling off Ren Tao’s plan. One of was the troopers’ combat strength. After the enemy troops fell into the trap, could the troopers be fast enough to wipe out an alien siege engine troop?
If not, the fate that awaited the troopers would be death…
The second key was if the alien merchants really surrendered, would it be like how Ren Tao predicted, there would be deserters due to a lack of military discipline? If not, even if they managed to stop and overtake a siege unit, the result would be more deaths. The whole effort would be pointless.
