Although relying on the firepower of the fortress, these besieged troops can barely support under the attack of the Zerg for the time being, but after losing the ammunition supply, the ammunition in the fortress will be less and less. rescued, then these desperate soldiers are in danger of being wiped out at any time.

However, for the soldiers on the front line, although they were also anxious about the situation of their comrades-in-arms, at this time they simply could not devote extra energy to rescue these lonely comrades-in-arms.

The Ping'an line of defense, this line of defense between Yangqu and Xinzhou is like an erupting volcano. The 358 brigade in charge of this line of defense is facing the attack of the swarm. Except for the logistics personnel who transport ammunition, the defense line From the brigade commander to the soldiers, from the communication company to the catering regiment, as long as there is still breath, almost everyone is required to go to the front line. From the first Zerg into the line of sight, the guns on the defense line have been ringing non-stop, Dense ammunition was pouring out like a torrential rain. In order to live longer, everyone had already done their best at this moment.

However, everyone in the defense line knows that as the defense line of the 356 brigade stationed on their left wing was breached, at least 356 Zerg have cut off the connection between Taiyuan and them. It's just a matter of time.

After all, their position is too important, and they can reach the core area of ​​the Taiyuan Fortress Group by crossing the security line, so even if they know that a large number of Zerg are coming from behind them, the 358th Brigade must die at the current Location.

And the straight-line distance from Xinzhou to the Ping'an defense line is less than 10 kilometers, even if the Ping'an defense line established by Yishan can greatly weaken the marching speed of the Zerg by virtue of its terrain advantages, and the long-range strike force deployed in the Ping'an defense line is also short-lived. Constantly smashing all kinds of shells at the top of the Zerg's head, it only takes four to ten minutes for the vanguard of the Zerg to enter the direct fire range of the safe defense line.

Therefore, when Xinzhou fell, only a small number of 'worker bees' were left to collect biomass from the mighty insect swarm, and most of the other insects swarmed towards the small safe line of defense.

But what's worse is that in addition to Xinzhou, Dingxiang, Hebian, Jian'an and other defense lines built on the Hutuo River were successively breached by Zerg with hundreds of thousands of troops. In just two days, the people who came across the river The swarm tore through more than 200 openings, large and small, on the more than 20-kilometer Hutuo River defense line, and immediately put the front of the army on the throat of the East Asian Union.

Even if the main defense line of the East Asian Union on the Hutuo River is built around the permanent fortress, as more and more bugs pour in from these positions, many fortresses on the south bank of the Hutuo River have no time to respond effectively, because Facing enemies on both sides, he was submerged in a sea of ​​insects hundreds of times larger than himself.

Although a large part of the Zergs attacked the Shijiazhuang Fortress Group downstream along the river after crossing the river, according to the monitoring pictures sent back from the satellite images, there are still no less than 60 Zergs coming from these torn apart fortresses. This made Taiyuan's troops have to be distracted and defended in multiple directions. Apart from using 'Light Messenger' to clean up some positions where a large number of insect swarms gathered, it was difficult to get Send out more forces to support Yuanping's defense line.

……

……

"There are only five rounds left of the 'Bright Messenger'. When do you think the brigade commander will give us the order to attack?" Among the roaring artillery, there are two giant artillery pieces that are at least three times the length and height of ordinary artillery pieces. The self-propelled artillery is quietly parked on the periphery of the artillery position, but with these two self-propelled artillery, the logistics and other security personnel equipped with them are already equivalent to a 155mm heavy artillery battalion.

The body length of these two super-heavy guns exceeds 25 meters, but the length of the 25 meters is entirely for the parameters specially set for its 50mm howitzer with a diameter of 300 times. At that time, this artillery can perform strike missions on targets within 50 kilometers.

Generally speaking, after the diameter of howitzers exceeds 200mm, compared to the logistical pressure they can provide, the tactical value they can provide is not cost-effective at all.

However, in order to launch the special ammunition brought by the aliens, the East Asian Union had to design and manufacture such a weapon that is not very practical in modern warfare.

However, as the ammunition was almost exhausted, most of these auxiliary personnel carried their rifles and walked to the front line at this time. Watching the fireworks rising from the artillery position, the commander of one of the self-propelled artillery couldn't help complaining to his companions .

"We have to wait. With the current density of bugs, using Lightbringer is too wasteful. Our conventional firepower can last for a while," the rumbling sound of shelling around made another car who was looking at the drone's monitor screen The chief could only use growls to answer his companion's question, "But I think it's because we made too much noise in the morning, more than half of the vanguard of the bugs was directly evaporated, and I wouldn't dare to let the bugs get together again. "

"But we sent out on 26 in the morning, and more than half of the inventory is gone," the driver sitting on the ammunition support vehicle on the other side also came over at this time, "If there are so many bugs gathered this afternoon There is no way for us to stop them."

"The bugs don't know that the Lightbringers are about to be wiped out. Maybe they still think that the dispersion of troops has played a role because they didn't get a nuclear attack in the afternoon."

"But it's not an option to continue like this. When the ammunition of the conventional artillery is exhausted, these bugs..."

"Okay! Let's stop talking!" The commander, who had been paying attention to the command platform, suddenly interrupted the soldiers' conversation, "The mission is over, the brigade commander wants us to carry out nuclear strikes on these four locations within 3 minutes! Calibration Coordinates! Quick!"

0522

As soon as they received the command to fire, the gunner and other combatants immediately stopped talking and entered combat preparations. However, when they began to make the final calibration of the artillery coordinates, the few people who had already known the surrounding terrain were quickly confused. I'm a little confused.

According to the results of computer feedback, these four bombardment locations were all concentrated near Tongchuan Town, more than 40 kilometers northeast of the Ping'an Defense Line. Although this small town north of the Hutuo River also had a large number of insect swarms, even They could wipe the town off the map, but hitting the bugs wouldn't directly reduce the pressure on the front lines.

Even though the cannonball called 'Bright Messenger' is a tactical nuclear weapon with a yield of [-] tons that can cause huge damage to bugs within a few kilometers, it is different from humans and can devour each other in exchange for what is needed for action when necessary. Bugs that need energy basically don't have such things as "logistics". Even if the East Asian Union blows up the rear of the bugs, if the human ground troops can't establish a defense line around them in time, a large number of bugs north of the Hutuo River can quickly destroy them. Fill in the vacancy.

not to mention……

"I said, Lao Xu," after repeated confirmation with the headquarters that the bombing location was Tongchuan Township, the gunner who was doing data calibration touched the back of his head with excitement in his eyes, "The previous drone investigation How many insects are there around Tongchuan?"

There was a sound of 'whining' when the motors were switched on, and with the sound of the motors, four hydraulic hoes with a thickness of more than half a meter were quickly lowered from the sides of the vehicle, raising a burst of fire. After the dust, it quickly plunged into the ground.

"It's about [-], what's the matter?"

Immediately afterwards, two huge gun barrels more than 20 meters long slowly rose, and began to calibrate the direction of the bombardment by themselves according to the coordinates input by the operator. The millimeter nuclear shell was pushed into the launcher by the automatic loader.

"Boom! Boom!"

In the two shelling sounds like thunder, the huge airflow gushing out from the artillery brake raised a huge cloud of smoke that could almost cover half of the vehicle body. Even though everyone put on earplugs before firing, The loud shelling still caused many people to have a small burst of tinnitus.

"Then there are not so many bugs now!" The gunner yelled excitedly, and immediately began to calibrate the coordinates of the next shelling.

The distance of more than 40 kilometers is already the length and height of Beijing's Sixth Ring Road. Even with a telescope, it is impossible to see anything clearly at this distance—not to mention the mountains between the Ping'an Defense Line and Tongchuan Town. Cut off, it is even more impossible for the soldiers in the safe defense line to know what kind of hell the bugs more than 40 kilometers away are going through now.

But not long after, two dazzling streamers shot out from between the foothills at the end of everyone's field of vision, as if a round of bright sun was rising from the horizon.

"Never mind so much! Keep firing!"

Although it is not possible to directly see how the bugs that suffered from the nuclear attack were reduced to ashes in the two beams of light, when the two beams of Camby sun rose from the mountains, all the surrounding people including the security line The Allied East Asian Army, which was still resisting, was greatly encouraged, and the morale that had been sluggish because of the cut off of the back road had more or less recovered at this moment.

But the light brought by the two nuclear bombs cannot dispel the fear and worry in people's hearts. After all, in the past seven days, similar lights have been lit up on the battlefield countless times. After the attack, the pressure on all fronts will be slightly weakened, but as long as there is no way to solve the mother body in the Datong insect nest, it will not take long for the endless insects to replenish the lost troops.

Compared with the never-ending bugs, the ammunition deployed by the East Asian joint defense line in Taiyuan is limited after all. Even if each nuclear shell can evaporate tens of thousands of bugs, compared to the coming bugs There are still too few words. After this round of bombardment, there is only the last nuclear bomb left on the Taiping defense line. According to the default rules of each defense line, this nuclear bomb is to be reserved after the defense line is breached, so as to prevent the soldiers from turning into bugs. Prepared for the 'nutrient' of the explosive soldiers...

In other words, after this round of bombardment, the Taiping defense line can only resist the attack of the insects by conventional firepower, regardless of how long the ammunition of these conventional firepower can last, but the soldiers in the position cannot The endless war of attrition with the worms, as long as the worms continue to exert pressure, the Taiping defense line may not be able to survive tonight.

If there wasn't a group of guys from different worlds suddenly appearing to 'spoil the situation'...

……

……

The ideological impact caused by the "demonstration" of the air and space fleet was basically expected by the human coalition forces. Therefore, no matter how noisy the Western countries headed by New Britain are because of this, they continue to conduct three rounds of investigations on the air and space fleet. After weeks of testing and actual combat exercises, after confirming that the First Aerospace Fleet has preliminary combat capabilities, the Human Alliance put on the agenda the opening of the portal to the original enterovirus world.

In fact, at the end of last year, the human coalition had already completed the site selection and preliminary construction tasks for this portal. Since the Daming World was already regarded as an important logistics world for the human coalition at this time, the site selection for the portal was designated as a joint On the Siberian Plain of the government world, only after the human coalition forces ensured that the original enterovirus world was sufficiently safe, would the human coalition forces include the coordinates leading to this world into the database of the portal transit center.

It's just that after the human coalition forces completed the construction task of the portal base, there was no next move. After all, according to the experience of the human coalition forces, before even two worlds are connected, this world is "stationary" compared to the human coalition forces Yes, so before gaining enough confidence in their own force, the human coalition would rather wait a little longer, so as to use the characteristic of the portal to gain a little time for development.

In the past year or so, in addition to attacking from all sides politically and economically, the Human Coalition has also made considerable efforts to reform the military. In addition to the already formed air and space fleet, the Human Coalition has formally used the world of thinking in conventional military operations. In terms of training and actual combat confrontation, although the thinking world based on human cognition must be different from the real world, but in the thinking world, the human coalition can test new tactics and equipment regardless of casualties and costs. Greatly reduced the problem of actual combat ability decline caused by weapon equipment updates.

In addition, relying on the strengthening of physical fitness brought about by the thinking world, most ordinary soldiers of the main force of the human coalition can also achieve 1.5 to 2 times the usual level in conventional items such as strength, endurance, and responsiveness, and some of them have received original training. Soldiers who have been actively injected with enterovirus can even carry heavy machine guns as ordinary rifles.

While the physical fitness of the soldiers has improved, the human coalition has not forgotten to continue to popularize and improve military exoskeletons. Relying on some technologies provided by Trisolarans, the human coalition has upgraded the military exoskeletons of the coalition government quite a lot. In addition to the transformation of materials, weapon systems, and life-support systems, the human coalition also focused on upgrading the human-computer interaction capabilities of the exoskeleton. The reaction time of the exoskeleton is shortened to within a few tenths of a second.

Of course, in addition to improving the quality of individual soldiers, the human coalition has also upgraded vehicles such as tanks and armored vehicles. After adopting some technologies provided by the coalition government, the main battle tanks of the human coalition have stronger off-road and off-road At the same time, its maximum range has reached more than 300 kilometers, and its speed has also exceeded [-] kilometers per hour.

Similarly, after upgrading key technologies such as communications, energy, engines, and operating systems, the performance of the human coalition's drones and unmanned combat vehicles has also been greatly improved, although it is still not up to the task of commanding hundreds of people outside the battlefield. Thousands of unmanned vehicles are engaged in fighting, but the number of vehicles that an unmanned combat formation can command at the same time has also nearly tripled. If the firepower brought by the increase in ammunition load and shooting accuracy is included Increase, the firepower that an unmanned combat formation can provide on the battlefield can reach almost seven or eight times the original.

In addition to these replacements of weapons and equipment that have intuitively improved combat effectiveness, the popularization and civilian use of portals brought about by the energy system revolution, and the new combat mode of using portals for combat are also the focus of the military reform of the human coalition. heavy.

Needless to say, the innovative changes brought about by the portal in logistics, espionage, deployment, etc. On this basis, through a large number of simulations in the thinking world and exercises in the real world, the human coalition has "developed" a variety of The unique use of being able to use a portal directly in a single war.

For example, in the hangar of the Truth-class space carrier, a small and medium-sized portal base connected to the UAV supply center is added, and the drone production line is transferred to the Truth-class space carrier in a disguised form, so that the space fleet can be separated. The purpose of ground forces conducting prolonged, long-distance tactical breakthroughs or conducting suppression operations.

For example, use reconnaissance troops, UAV troops, orbital airborne troops, etc. to quickly locate the space-time coordinates of the target position, directly use teleporters to send a large number of troops to seize key strategic positions, or directly open a small portal over the target to send nuclear weapons or other Weapons of mass destruction are thrown into the enemy's lair to carry out uninterceptable precision strikes on the enemy's key positions.

For example, arrange semi-permanent time-space coordinate collection devices in the moon and the earth-moon orbit, directly open these portals connected to space directly in the enemy's position, and use the air pressure difference between the two worlds to directly suck the enemy into space; or put this A semi-permanent time-space coordinate collection device is installed on the seabed or in the magma, and when necessary, a modern version of the 'Flooded Seven Armies' can be directly used through the portal.

For example, set up an emergency portal outside your key targets. When you find that the enemy has launched a long-range attack on these key targets, you can directly open the portal to transfer the enemy's attack to another open space in the world, and directly abolish the enemy's important targets on your side from the root. The ability to conduct long-range strikes.

Such unconstrained combat ideas are brought up almost every week, and some of them have been proved to improve the combat effectiveness of the human coalition forces in the exercise. They have been first rolled out in the expeditionary force, and some of them have been skillfully applied by the human coalition forces in In the existing military system; and other combat methods that are not obvious for the improvement of combat effectiveness, or the existing technology of the human coalition forces cannot be used proficiently, can also provide ideas for the human coalition forces to use the portal in the future.

In general, if the upgrades in weaponry and combat systems are added together, although the human coalition forces are still far from being complacent, compared with themselves, they have already completed the transformation and military reform. The troops can basically hang up and fight the troops with the same designation as last year.

Therefore, after the human coalition believed that it had sufficient military power, the human coalition regrouped the two expeditionary armies that were originally deployed in the world of the coalition government to eliminate the remaining earth rebels and mutants. These two expeditionary armies suffered a lot of equipment and personnel losses in many large-scale battles with mutants, but after being incorporated into the coalition government troops that passed the political review, the troops of this expeditionary army On the contrary, the scale has also expanded the four standing divisions, six reserve divisions and the first air and space fleet of the human coalition forces.

While the size of the troops is expanding, the average combat effectiveness of the Dimensional Expeditionary Army has not declined at all. After all, since entering the coalition government world, it has been in a state of war almost every day, and it is also the first to complete the transformation and military reform.. , All the military personnel among them can basically be regarded as the elite of the elite of the human coalition army.

Therefore, on April 2rd of the [-]nd year of the new era, after completing the assembly of troops and replenishment of weapons and ammunition, the human coalition forces opened the portal to the fourth world in the fortress in Siberia.

It's just that the location where the portal opened this time was somewhat unexpected by the human coalition forces.

------

The time went back two hours. As the supreme commander of the East Asia United North Theater, Xu Yang and her adjutant were standing in front of the big screen of the headquarters. On the large screen in the center of the command headquarters, red arrows are continuously expanding southward from multiple gaps in the Hutuo River defense line. Some soldiers representing the East Asian United Defenders are being submerged and swallowed one by one by this torrent. , even if there are still a few positions still insisting on resistance, when the friendly positions around them fall one after another, everyone in the command has been able to meet their destruction.

And half a minute ago, after news came that Shijiazhuang's frontal defense had been severely damaged by more than 20 Titan-level Zergs, the headquarters fell into a brief silence, but soon, these soldiers who thought they were used to casualties They quickly adjusted their status, and immediately checked the latest status of the defense line in the direction of Shijiazhuang to confirm whether the deployment needs to be adjusted next.

Looking at the giant creatures with a height of seven or eight floors in the photos from the Shijiazhuang defense line, Xu Yang clenched his fists subconsciously, while the voice of the staff came from her side: "The defenders of Shijiazhuang rely on More than 300 aliens carrying nuclear rocket launchers opened the way to regain the position, but because the outer positions were severely damaged in the attack of the Titans, they have basically lost the value of continuing to defend.”

"The attack intensity of the insects is still increasing, and our defense line can't last for too long," the adjutant's voice was a little hoarse and low, "I think we should find a way to organize a counterattack when the insect nest in Datong is empty, or we should do it as soon as possible." It is best to prepare for evacuation, there is no point in continuing to be stuck here, the Sichuan-Chongqing battle two years ago has proved that for bugs that can replenish at any time, any way of sticking to it is a slow suicide."

Hearing the adjutant's suggestion, the people around Xu Yang seemed to want to refute, but in the end all their words turned into soft sighs. It seemed that the adjutant was not the only one who was not optimistic about this battle.

"History won't repeat," Xu Yang shook his head and repeated again, "We must never let history repeat itself."

"Taiyuan is already the last large-scale fortress group in the north of the mainland. If this line of defense is lost, then the large area north of the Yellow River will be safe for us to defend. Not only the large industrial and grain-producing areas in North China will be in danger. If the worms choose to attack westward and merge with the worms on the western front, then even the Xi'an-Hanzhong defense line will have to retreat to the south or east due to being attacked on both sides."

"Although we have transferred a considerable amount of industrial capacity to Japan and Southeast Asia, losing the area north of the Yellow River is still an unacceptable blow to us. After all, under the threat of bugs, the industrial and industrial capacity of the large area from the Yellow River to the Yangtze River The population will be forced to move further south, and because of the industrial capacity in the southern part of the Yangtze River, we simply cannot organize enough troops to pose a threat to the Zerg in a short period of time, not to mention that the food production in these areas cannot bear our current population size."

Xu Yang's voice sounded hoarse due to the long command and dispatch, but this did not prevent the surrounding soldiers from feeling the determination in Xu Yang's voice.

"I know, but..." the adjutant took off his military cap, pinched the brim of the hat in his hand, and then said unwillingly, "With our current strength, there is no way to hold the Taiyuan defense line. This can't be done without faith. Things, I know that the supplies and support from the rear are on the way, but the bugs are already under our noses, unless we can get a batch immediately..."

However, before the adjutant finished speaking, the blue light from behind him attracted all the eyes of the headquarters, and even Xu Yang couldn't help looking behind the adjutant.

The adjutant turned around, and saw a blue circle suddenly appearing about three meters in front of the south wall of the headquarters. Immediately afterwards, the circle expanded rapidly, and soon passed through the ceiling of the headquarters , and eventually spread into a rectangle ten meters high and 20 meters wide.

If you look under this rectangular object like a gate, you can find that all the positions that are smoothly drawn by blue show a very smooth cut.

In the center of the rectangle is a piece of mercury-like silver-gray unknown substance. Circles of ripples continue to spread and collide on it. As the ripples continue to sweep across the plane, the originally smooth cut on the ceiling of the command center is very sudden. A series of scars of different depths appeared, as if being continuously scratched by some kind of extremely sharp blade.

When the circle appeared, the soldiers in the headquarters had already pressed the alarm. When the guards in charge of the defense rushed in one after another and began to organize the retreat of the command and personnel, the ripples on the surface of 'Mercury' gradually returned to calm. .

As the ripples gradually decreased, the center of the rectangle soon became transparent, and when the guards saw what was behind the 'door', all of them raised their weapons in unison.

Maybe it's because the aliens have brought too much surprise to the senior commander of the East Asia United, maybe it's because the bad battle on the front line has left Xu Yang with no extra energy to experience the emotion of fear. When the portal stabilized, And the people behind the portal pointing at him with long guns and short cannons are a group of human beings. Although the painting styles of these human beings from individual weapons to tanks and chariots are completely different from those of the East Asian Union, Xu Yang still has an inexplicable feeling. Peace of mind.

"Don't fire! Put down your weapons!" The humans on the other side of the portal were still on alert. Xu Yang had already loudly asked the guards who rushed into the headquarters to put down their weapons, and then he walked towards the portal and stopped in front of the portal. About a meter away, shouted to the other side of the portal, "I think we can talk!"

------

"The situation of comrades from other worlds is not very optimistic."

At 28:7 p.m. on April [-], when the misunderstanding was cleared up and Xu Yang reported the intelligence of the human coalition to the East Asia United Central Committee, the East Asia United defined the human coalition without hesitation for too long. For 'friendly forces'.

Although the appearance of the human coalition forces has caused some troubles to the communication between the two sides to a certain extent, the East Asian coalition, which has been mostly in the mud, does not have the strength to fight against the Zerg while also fighting against the human coalition forces. What is the purpose of the coalition forces coming to this world? The East Asia United has no other choice except to believe that the human coalition forces are really harmless.

"According to the information shared by our comrades from other worlds, the Zerg matrix—that is, the red monster that appeared underground in Huanglong Mansion and Australia—the growth rate of this world's matrix has far exceeded those monsters found in our world , now these matrices can not only produce monsters without limit when the material and energy are sufficient, and unlike those monsters in our world that can only grow casually because of the imminent events, the matrices that have enough time to develop can already produce monsters in batches. Producing specific monsters suitable for the current battlefield."

And after the East Asian Union gave the order to the Taiyuan headquarters, Xu Yang, who had been anxious because of the war situation, immediately proposed to the human coalition to hold a joint combat meeting, although Xu Yang did not expect the aliens who had just arrived in this world to be able to join the battle. How much direct help is provided in this war, but even if the outsiders are unwilling to intervene in the frontal battlefield, as long as the East Asian Union can 'buy' (or 'borrow') the materials urgently needed on the front line from the human coalition forces, it will be slightly relieved The urgent need for East Asian unity.

But what Xu Yang didn't know was that long before entering this world, the human coalition forces who had given up hope for their own luck had already prepared the portal to open directly in the center of the battlefield, so when they saw a group of people behind the portal After being able to communicate with compatriots, the human coalition is actually more excited than the high-level East Asian coalition imagined. Shi Mian, who has been paying attention to the development of the situation, immediately made full support for the East Asian coalition after learning about the situation. On the basis of helping the East Asian coalition stabilize the front , the decision of East Asia to jointly defeat the Zerg attack.

After receiving the relevant orders, the staff and intelligence officers of the Dimensional Expeditionary Army first exchanged information with the East Asia United. After getting a general understanding of the current situation of the Taiyuan defense line, the East Asia United agreed to Xu Yang's proposal meeting request.

However, before formally discussing the joint combat plan, due to the fact that the information learned by the human coalition forces from the mouth of the East Asian joint is quite different from the information previously learned from the projection of the girl who claimed to be AI (for example, in the narrative of the AI ​​girl, East Asian The United has already lost all the positions north of the Yellow River, but now the East Asian United is still fighting with the Zerg on the Taiyuan defense line), so the staff officers of the Human Alliance must first inform the commanders of the various units of the information they have collected.

The staff officer of the expeditionary army who was in charge of explaining the tactics said that he projected a few pictures of monsters on the online screen. Although there are still some differences in the details of these monsters, on the whole, the monsters in the photos all look like how long they are. It's a large hound with two sharp claws, but this kind of hound has no hair or carapace on its whole body, and its scarlet muscles and blood vessels are directly exposed to the air, making it look extremely ferocious.

"For example, the bugs called 'hounds' by our comrades from other worlds are the main cannon fodder for the Zerg in the war. This kind of bugs are extremely fast but have extremely low defense. Assault rifles can cause enough damage to them. In addition, although they pose less threat to heavy armored units such as tanks and fortresses, the number of such bugs will exceed five figures every time they are dispatched. It's quick to get around or rush into defenses and do a lot of damage to infantry who don't have much protection."

"In addition to this kind of small cannon fodder, spore crawlers called 'crawlers', anti-aircraft beetles called 'Scorpions', armored bugs called 'tanks', and armored bugs called 'Titans' may also appear on the battlefield. Super giant bugs and other bugs that play other functions in war, among them, crawlers and scorpions are bugs with certain long-range attack capabilities. Scorpio uses bone spurs for direct-point attacks."

"How fast is the mother body making these monsters?" The commander of the fourth division asked with the microphone.

"It's higher than the production capacity of tanks in a heavy industrial province," Xu Yang, who was standing behind the staff of the expeditionary force, explained at this time. The environment is very closely related, but the insect nest in Datong has developed to a full stage, and according to satellite images, it is speculated that in the case of abundant biomass, this insect nest can produce more than 50 insects every day."

"That is to say, if we need to defend Taiyuan's defense line, we must regain Datong?" Another division commander frowned and asked, "Is there any way to carry out an air strike or parachute to Datong?"

"Bombardment is feasible, but these attacks can only remove the Zerg on the surface, and most of the nests are located tens of meters underground. If the exact location of the brood cannot be found, even the earth-penetrating nuclear bombs will not be able to damage them. damage," Xu Yang immediately explained, "as for air force bombing or parachute...it's almost impossible. Although the worms don't have much air force, their air defense capabilities are not weak, and the closer they are to the worm nest, the stronger the worm's air defense capabilities will be. Strong, around Datong, the air defense firepower network composed of Scorpio, Creeper and some brood fixed air defense organizations can basically intercept most of the air targets below 3000 meters in height."

"In other words, we can't use the portal to directly raid Datong, which will cause great losses," the commander of the Fourth Division said with a frown. Use superior forces to directly crush them."

"I don't know where your confidence comes from, but based on our combat experience with bugs, it's almost impossible," Xu Yang's adjutant interjected at this time, "even if your industrial production capacity and logistical capabilities can However, as long as it cannot cause huge casualties to the insects at one time, after recovering the corpses of the companions, the insect nest can quickly turn the biomass into actionable monsters again."

"Then make it impossible for the worms to recover the corpses of their companions," the political commissar of the first division of the expeditionary force suddenly said, "Before we attack, let the troops go directly behind the main force of the worms and divide the main force of the worms." In two parts, pocket the bugs from the front."

As the political commissar of the First Division said, he drew a blue line near the Hutuo River on the electronic map, and then followed the blue line to draw two arrows representing the direction of attack toward the existing position of the East Asian United: " After the encirclement net is formed, we can hunt the bugs inside from both the frontline position and the penetrating troop, and the penetrating troop can not only exert pressure on the Zerg in the encirclement net from the rear, but also suppress the insects inside the net. Those bugs who are trying to reinforce are blocked outside to prevent them from snatching the corpses of the bugs."

After finishing speaking, the commander of the First Division looked at Xu Yang: "Comrade Xu Yang, if the worms can't take back those corpses, will they be able to weaken the production capacity of the worm nest?"

"If there is not enough biomass, the rate of insect production by the mother body will be reduced by [-] to [-] percent," Xu Yang continued after thinking about it, "but the problem is that we don't have troops capable of carrying out this mission...if Before the aliens disappeared and fell asleep on a large scale three years ago, we could rely on the abilities of the aliens to fight, but now..."

Xu Yang shook his head slightly: "Besides, even if we have such a troop, the worm nest is not a production machine without intelligence. After discovering that a troop circled behind them and might cut off their 'supply line' , The insect nest is likely to command the troops to abandon the attack and jump out of our encirclement net instead, and with the current scale of war, if the insects want to escape, then we have no way to intercept all the insects."

"Then what if we make the encirclement smaller and eat the bugs one by one? For example, we can first build an encirclement net from Tongchuan Town to Yuanping City, and eat the bugs from Hutuo River to Xinzhou first.
