Chương 6264: Too Easy

Though the daring raid only caused the Ghirard Fleet to lose roughly 30 percent of the supplies and other war material stashed on Duqaste XI, much of the destroyed hardware consisted of expensive explosive munitions or high-value hardware that couldn't be resupplied as easily.

The operation was already a success in this regard. The damage should be able to postpone the alien assault on Duqeste VII by at least two weeks if not longer if the aliens suffered greater logistical problems.

General Ark was tempted to let this go further. The original plan demanded that the raid destroy at least 45 percent of all of the supplies stashed on the surface. This should produce enough of a delay to deter the Ghirard Fleet from launching an all-out attack by 3 to 4 weeks.

In the current context of the Red Tide Offensive, a delay of at least 21 days was an eternity!
