Pirates: From the Planet to the Starry Sky

Chapter 343 Take a breath

When he found out that the Zerg army started to implement the tactics of adding oil and vinegar, Richie was naturally happy. After this, he didn't need to worry about the Zerg swarming up and knocking down his troops.

But Li Qi didn't know that this was also due to the powers of the Rock Mountain Kingdom. If there were no six-level powers pulled out one by one, the Zerg Queen might really swarm up like Li Qi worried.

At that time, a large number of Zerg fleets will be able to surround Richie's fleets, and will destroy Richie's logistics, causing Richie's Rock Mountain Kingdom to perish.

With time to recuperate, Whitebeard was replaced to rest, and a week later, a legion of troops came from the rear again.

Ricky replaced the red-haired Shanks who had been fighting for more than ten days with the white beard who had rested and this legion.

Next, each legion was reorganized and sent to the front line, and the various armies were supplemented, and a large number of factories were expanded over time.

A large number of space robots have filled the gap for soldiers. Over time, the original daily output of 15 has now increased to [-] daily.

Such artillery units can just replace the losses of soldiers.

The line of defense gradually stabilized, the follow-up legions were replenished, and the troops began to take turns to rest and replenish the battle damage.

For this reason, Rich also specially dismantled a newly formed army and used it as a supplement to supply the four front armies currently on the battlefield.

At this time, on the battlefield, the four front armies were responsible for the four lines of defense.The four release lines are the defense line outside the rock star, the galaxy border defense line, and the upper and lower release lines.

The production capacity of follow-up factories kept up, a large number of warships were built, and various weapons and ammunition were quickly replenished.

In addition, the Academy of Sciences at the rear relied on the original ground automatic sentry tower to transform it into a space automatic sentry tower based on the tactics of the Zerg fleet.

This kind of outpost is a ten-meter-sized cube, which contains an enemy radar and a simple intelligent program, which can ensure that the outpost can target the Zerg troops.

At the same time, the outpost contains a small nuclear fusion power generator for power, and a simple engine that can retreat to replenish when the energy is exhausted.

Because electromagnetic weapons need ammunition, unlike energy weapons, they don't need to be replenished. Therefore, such an automatic sentry tower is equipped with a small laser cannon and five laser machine guns around it.

Because of the installed energy weapons, while the internal structure is tight, the external armor is newly designed for Zerg troops, which can resist acid, electromagnetic, explosion and high temperature.

A new batch of space automatic sentry towers came out of the factory a few days ago and distributed to subordinate troops. This kind of weaponry does not require manpower, and can greatly supplement the firepower problem on the battlefield, and has been welcomed by the troops.

The only disadvantage is that because it is designed for positional warfare, it is not an automatic combat machine like a space robot, and the battle loss rate is very high.

But it is good that such weapons can reduce the losses of soldiers.Because of fighting against the Zerg, various unmanned weapons and automatic weapons began to be developed through the Academy of Sciences.

A weapon that can reduce the loss of soldiers is a good weapon for frontline commanders.

Now, the armies of all fronts are dominated by warships, and the number of soldiers in subordinate units has been reduced, and a large number of automatic weapons have been armed as troops.

For example, in the past there were ten standard people in a team, but now, a team has five people, and is equipped with ten space robots and ten space automatic sentry towers.

Among the five people, two are responsible for the control of automatic weapons, one is responsible for replacing automatic weapons and equipment, and two soldiers serve as defensive soldiers.

This kind of configuration not only reduces the number of soldiers who are not easy to train, but also improves the firepower of the bottom troops.

Therefore, at present, when the subordinate troops are rotated in each front army, they will start to replenish according to the ratio of troops tested by the war.

Such a legion that was half lost in the battle, returned to the front line after being replenished, was equivalent to two legions.This also allowed Rich's subordinates to start to support the formation of various armies.

The border defense line was originally in charge of four legions under the First Front Army, and later included three legions of the Second Front Army.

Now this release line has been assigned to the Second Front Army. With Rich, three new regiments have been added to the Second Front Army, and they will be expanded during the rest of the Second Front Army's subordinate regiments.

In this way, the troops of the original first front army were replaced little by little, and handed over to the first front army responsible for the release of the rock star.

Now the second front army has eight new-type legions, which serve as the main force of the border defense line.

As for the Rock Star defense line, the original four corps of the First Front Army plus the corps withdrawn from the border defense line returned to the commander-in-chief of the Front Army.

Now the ten new armies under the first front army have reached the complete establishment of a front army expected by Rich, but now the number of soldiers in each army has decreased, and the automatic weapons and equipment have increased a lot.

The fourth front army is responsible for the upper line. Now, Rich has added two new types of legions to the fourth front army, replacing the original only one legion of the fourth front army.

And expand the remaining troops of the only one legion of the fourth front army that has been rotated into two new-type legions to replenish.

In this way, the fourth front army has four legions. Although the Zerg have increased their troops one after another, it is not a problem.

At the same time, in the newly formed fifth front army, Rich added a new type of army, but at this time, the fifth front army has a new rotation of General Karp, which can be regarded as able to support the defense line.

Moreover, the new type of troops not only increased the size of Richie's original reorganized troops on the Life Star by ten legions, but also reduced the loss of soldiers.

If an automatic weapon is lost, it is lost, but it is just a loss of the cost of a weapon.As for a soldier, training them would cost a lot of money.

Moreover, for the casualties of the soldiers, the Rock Mountain Kingdom also needs to pay a pension, and the families of the soldiers also need to be taken care of. This expenditure is also not small.

Therefore, at the beginning, during the first month, the loss of soldiers from various units made the Rock Mountain Kingdom cry from top to bottom.

So far, since the sudden appearance of the Zerg fleet, the four front armies have lost more than 150 million soldiers.

In other words, the elite troops under Richie lost almost four soldiers of the full legion at one time.

If these more than 100 million troops are replaced by the current new type of legion, it is enough to install ten legions.

It can be said that this month's war has directly emptied the treasury of the Rock Mountain Kingdom.

If it weren't for the trust of the people at the bottom in the Rock Mountain Kingdom that cleared the bandits and pirates, the Rock Mountain Kingdom temporarily issued a large amount of war bonds and gave the bottom people IOUs, the Rock Mountain Kingdom would have collapsed long ago.

"Report, two more legions from the Life Star have arrived at the Storm Star." At this time, Rich was dealing with affairs, and a report was sent to Rich.
