Chapter 590 I Really Dare to Kill Ji Xinghe_3

With the Independent Group's withdrawal, Tu Yuan seemed a lot more relaxed, and didn't repeat any of his previous commands, he began to explain.

"You're just too worried that Ji Xinghe would be sacrificed, that's why you made the wrong decision. Think about it, knowing the precise coordinates of the Transition Base, what would the Empire think, what would they do?"

When a nuclear strike is inevitable, and its yield is bound to be enormous, what can one think? What can one do?

Utilizing the Transition Gate to evacuate is the only choice, evacuate as much as possible.

But when it's uncertain when the Federation might launch a nuclear strike, what should be done then?

Trap Ji Xinghe, buy time.

Or to put it another way, use Ji Xinghe, and the Independent Group, which in theory would certainly try to rescue Ji Xinghe, as hostages to delay the Federation's time to launch a nuclear strike.
