Pirates: From the Planet to the Starry Sky

Chapter 258 Space Battlefield
In the sky, a burst of engine roar sounded.

Missiles flew across the battlefield with faint blue tail flames, and fell into the Zerg base behind the battlefield.

The next moment, mushroom clouds rose behind the battlefield, and the impact of explosions spread across the surface of the planet, passing through the entire battlefield at an extremely fast speed.

In the sky, an air formation composed of warships and fighter jets was in close contact with the flying troops of the Zerg.

A round of naval guns and missiles flew out, killing many Zerg troops, but some fish that slipped through the net came to the side of the fighter planes and warships.

Then, a large amount of highly corrosive acid turned the fighters into scrap iron like a hornet's nest, and with the tail flames, the fighters fell one after another.

The same is true for those small battleships. The acid of these bugs is irresistible to the armor of fighter planes and battleships.

"Ah."

Looking at this scene, on the ground, my side has the advantage and quickly strangled the Zerg troops, but in the sky, fighter planes and warships do not have much advantage against the flexible Zerg flying troops.

"Aerial sniper troops are dispatched to hunt and kill enemy flying troops."

The commander gave the order.

Among the rear flagships, a group of flying troops with jets behind them flew out. Each of these soldiers held large-caliber sniper firearms.

In the sky, the knowledge-colored domineering locked on the swarm of insects in front, and the armed domineering bullet penetrated the heads of these insects in an instant.

When this team of only ten people was dispatched, the swarm of insects in the sky seemed to have met their nemesis. They were locked, headshot, and then turned into corpses and fell.

With the assistance of this special team, the scientific air force moved forward and began to divide and strangle the swarms in the sky.

As a raiding force, the goal this time is to obtain specimens, not to fight a protracted battle.

Therefore, the troops of the two armies were immediately covered by firepower.After destroying a large number of Zerg troops, sending troops to strangle the remaining Zerg swarms.

Although these swarms actually had more than 50 troops, under the first round of bombardment, more than half of them had been lost.

Subsequent rounds of bombardment and missile bombardment reduced the swarm troops to tens of thousands.This number does not have an advantage in the face of the troops of the two armies.

The entire raid lasted no more than half an hour, when the last swarm soldier was beheaded.

The follow-up collection troops rushed up immediately to collect specimens from various Zerg soldiers.

Zerg corpses were carried onto the transport ship, various liquids were packed in bottles and cans, and samples from the Zerg bases were also collected and sent to the warehouse.

"Everyone, quickly clean up the battlefield."

The commander said loudly.

"Our main force is delaying the enemy's main force. The enemy has now reacted and is approaching us. After half an hour, it will start to retreat."

At this time, the appearance of the ground assault troops of the scientific army naturally couldn't hide the insect swarm on the rock star.But with the shells falling in the sky and the bombardment of space-based weapons.

Large Zerg bases were destroyed, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of Zerg troops were wiped out, so that the Zerg could only guarantee their own defense for the time being.

After collecting a multi-million-scale flying troop to spread over the rock star, they shot down the artificial satellite launched by the science troop.

At the same time, separate a flying force to pursue the main force of the two corps at a higher altitude.

At this time, groups of flying troops had already contacted the troops of the two corps. In front of them, missiles flew one after another, and various artillery salvos fired.

In the vicinity, there are large and small anti-aircraft guns, as well as a battle group composed of various fighter planes and small warships, engaging the approaching Zerg flying troops.

In the space above the rock star, the wreckage of the fighter plane, the fragments of the battleship, and the corpses of the Zerg floated in the orbit of the rock star, covering a large space on the battlefield.

Looking at the battlefield ahead, with the help of various artillery advantages, the United Fleet has a certain advantage.

But the number of Zerg troops is too much, even if many are eliminated, more Zerg swarms can quickly fill the gap.

As the battle continued, the combined fleet in front also lost troops, and this number continued to rise.

"Only relying on the fleet, our ground firepower is useless, and we don't have much advantage against the Zerg flying troops."

In the flagship command room, looking at the stationmaster fighting ahead, Baru was thinking.

"Also, the ammunition is sufficient now, but if it lasts for a long time, the ammunition will be exhausted, and the entire fleet will become a display."

Thinking of this, Baru asked the staff officer beside him.

"What is the situation of the vanguard now, and how long will it take to return."

"Reporting to the regiment commander, the vanguard troops are already cleaning the battlefield, collecting samples, and will take off in 10 minutes."

"10 minutes."

Listening to the report, Baru thought about it.

"Order, the vanguard, when returning, go directly to Storm Star to book the planet and wait. After 15 minutes, our fleet fired a wave of missiles and left the battlefield."

"Yes."

15 minutes passed quickly, but also very slowly. With the superiority in numbers, the Zerg troops approached the battleship, and various acids, plasma cannons, and bone spurs flew in.

Under a large number of attacks, battleships with heavy armor were also destroyed.Among the battleships, those pilots could not escape on such a battlefield.

As soon as you get out of the battleship wearing a space suit, you will be discovered by the Zerg, and then a large number of bugs fly over and tear it to pieces with their sharp teeth.

"hateful."

It is very troublesome to train warship pilots, but now, a small or even a medium-sized frigate has crashed, causing tens of hundreds of people to die just like that.

Seeing the elite subordinates die in battle like this, Baru felt very uncomfortable, but at this time of the space war, Baru had no way to fight through, to cover the retreat of these soldiers, he could only watch most of these soldiers being killed by the Zerg .

"Report to the Corps Commander, it's been 15 minutes."

"retreat."

Hearing the report, Baru immediately said.

All around, all kinds of fighter planes began to return to the warships under the cover of artillery, and all kinds of warships also fired all the missiles, and began to gradually withdraw from the battlefield.

"Boom boom boom boom."

In the rear, on top of the flagships of the two corps, thousands of super powerful missiles were shot out in a salvo.The successive explosions of the missiles instantly emptied the main battlefield, creating a distance between the fleet and the swarm.

The battleship engine was running at full speed, and with the distance, the swarm flying troops relying on wings and other bodies to fly could not catch up with the fleet.

After a certain distance, the swarm troops stopped chasing and began to retreat back to the rock star.

Watching this scene, Baru also heaved a rare sigh of relief.

"It's over, this race is really difficult."
