Those who reincarnate must die.

Zhang Lang's battle plan was very simple, not even filling a single page, but it already covered the next two months.

The specific details are as follows: on a certain day of a certain month, troops will be dispatched, via a certain star path, to a certain star system for occupation.

These simplified plans were listed in chronological order. The intervals were anywhere from three to five days to seven or eight days, until two months later, according to the plan, humanity would have conquered eleven star systems, totaling one hundred and three planets.

At that point, Zhang Lang's main quest will be complete.

However, it is clear that Zhuge Liang could not understand the meaning of these instructions.

In order for Zhang Lang to successfully complete the main mission, the altar has provided him with a third expeditionary force with enough personnel and equipment. At least taking over these twelve star systems is no problem, provided that no one in these star systems resists and can be taken over directly upon arrival.

The truth is, all these star systems are occupied by other forces, and none of them are easy to mess with. Once a war breaks out, the outcome, casualties, the amount of resources invested, and how long the war will last are all unknowns.

Therefore, Zhuge simply could not understand how Zhang Lang calculated the two months of packed schedules in his instructions.

"Commander, your plan is impossible to complete." Zhuge pointed out the core problem directly: "I can follow your orders and send the first force to the Crimson Stream System in five days, but there is a 9% chance that this force will be completely wiped out by the Mother Nest entrenched on the other side. Although there is a 1% chance that they can break through successfully, they will definitely suffer heavy losses. It is also impossible to continue using the Bloodlust Starway in the Crimson Stream System to reach the Carban System in four days, as you plan."

"I don't want questions, I want execution!" Zhang Lang's tone brooked no argument. "You just need to prepare the details of the occupation plan. If there are any changes, I will notify you to modify the operation plan. If you can't find me, all you need to do is strictly follow my plan!"

As an artificial intelligence, Zhuge can offer suggestions, but it has no decision-making power over major policies. Therefore, it can only accept Zhang Lang's orders.

After leaving his plan, Zhang Lang left the command room and walked out of the spaceship.

"Good morning, sir!"

As the supreme commander of the Third Expeditionary Force, Zhang Lang was constantly surrounded by soldiers standing at attention and saluting wherever he went. This attention made him uncomfortable, so he quickened his pace and soon arrived at the hatch.

At this moment, the human fleet had already landed on the dust planet. Outside the hull was the scorching atmosphere of the dust planet, filled with sulfurous gases. Without protective suits, humans would not survive even five minutes exposed to it.

Upon seeing Zhang Lang arrive, the two soldiers in powered armor guarding the hatch stood at attention.

"Good day, sir! What are your instructions?"

Zhang Lang nodded: "Open the hatch, I'm going out."

"Huh?" The two soldiers were taken aback. "Sir, you're not wearing any protective gear yet..."

"No need..." Zhang Lang waved his hand. "Open the door."

"This doesn't comply with operating procedures..." the two soldiers hesitated. "The environment on Great Dust Star is unsuitable for human survival, even for cyborgs. Beyond this hatch lies the exit preparation area, and anyone must wear full protective gear to pass through here."

"I said I don't need it!" Zhang Lang frowned. "That's an order!"

"Obeying orders is a soldier's duty!" The two soldiers stood at attention. "But we cannot allow you to be put in danger, sir!"

"Furthermore, even if we open the door, if the system detects that an unsafe human has entered the preparation area, it will immediately lock the hatch leading to the outside and sound an alarm, which would cause a riot!"

"This..." Zhang Lang had only chosen not to wear a protective suit to avoid the hassle, but it turned out to be even more troublesome. He couldn't just tear open the hatch and run out, so he could only sigh.

"Very good, you two stayed at your posts and did not let me down."

It turned out to be a test… The two soldiers exchanged a glance, then stood even straighter: “Thank you for the praise, sir. It’s just what we should do!”

After leaving the exit area, Zhang Lang planned to find a protective suit, but found that the fighter jet maintenance room was nearby. He simply came there and requisitioned a space fighter jet, saying that he wanted to go out for inspection.

As the supreme commander, Zhang Lang's orders were obeyed by all, but his safety was also of paramount importance. Immediately, two pilots requested to escort him. After his refusal was ignored, Zhang Lang had no choice but to agree, and the three planes took off from the warship together.

Accompanying the supreme commander on his planetary tour, the two pilots were naturally cautious, maintaining a safe distance while closely following to prepare for any unforeseen circumstances. In truth, those who volunteered to protect their superior were ace pilots in the fleet; a mere escort mission was a piece of cake for them, and the two even had the leisure to chat on their walkie-talkies.

"The officer's driving skills are rather average..."

"Yeah, yeah, that turn was really sharp, it looked like a beginner's turn."

"Hey, I remember the commander used to be in the Air Force, right?"

"That's right, a combat hero, an ace pilot!"

"Judging from this, has he been out of practice for too long and is a bit rusty?"

With his full wood attribute, Zhang Lang overheard their conversation. However, he didn't care. It was indeed his first time flying a plane in this world, and without his weapon mastery, he wouldn't have been able to fly such a complex machine. He was a little unsure at first, but after a few minutes, he had a basic grasp of its performance.

Now, it's time to get rid of those two little guys in the back...

"Huh?" The two pilots chatting behind him suddenly noticed that Zhang Lang's plane had changed.

"The wing angle changed? Did he activate space mode? We haven't even left the atmosphere yet!"

"Are you kidding me? What is the officer doing...?"

Before the two could react, a dazzling light flashed from the exhaust nozzle of Zhang Lang's plane, followed by an acceleration, and the fighter jet shot straight into the sky like a rocket!

"What?!" one of them exclaimed in shock, yelling into the walkie-talkie, "Quick, after them! The commander has gone into space!"

"What's the point of chasing after them..." another person sighed. "We can't catch them..."

"You've flown fighter jets for so many years, have you ever seen such exaggerated acceleration?"

"The aircraft's performance is the same, but the acceleration that pilots can withstand is different... So this is what the ace pilots of the last generation are like..."

As they watched Zhang Lang's trail of flames disappear into the sky, the two pilots showed expressions of admiration.

"Contact the troops deployed in space. The commander deliberately shook us off and broke out of the atmosphere. Ask them to take responsibility for the commander's safety afterward."
