StarCraft: Tyranid Empire.

Chapter 278 Pest Control Program
a few days later.

After the psychic disruptor was first used in Ansardar and achieved initial results, the Korhal Revolutionary Army immediately announced that the threat of the Zerg had been effectively contained, and the entire city was placed under the protection of the army and new weapons.

The residences and order of the main city of Ansardar, which were destroyed during the long-term chaos, have also been rebuilt. The military government composed of the Revolutionary Army Marshal Command and the August National Security Council temporarily took over the city. .

After removing the influence of the federal government in local laws, Augustus and his officers still used the laws familiar to the locals instead of Keha IV to restrain the city residents to maintain order.

At the same time, a series of robbery crimes and armed conflicts caused by the swarm invasion and government shutdown have also dropped significantly. Those who want to take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune or deliberately plan to create chaos Soldiers were sent to prison.

After the new government took a series of decisive measures aimed at quickly re-establishing order, the industrial areas that supported the economic lifeline of the entire city, such as manufacturing plants and crystal smelting factories, resumed operation and were used to produce supplies and military vehicles for the revolutionary army.

At the same time, in the dreary and depressing first-level military blockade state established to resist the invasion of Zerg, those young people who lost their jobs because of the war and had nothing to do, and the large number of local street punks and drag racing parties turned to To enter the Revolutionary Army was established at the Ansardar Recruitment Center.

Unlike Union soldiers who were lured into enlisting by the advertised cool walking mechs, lucrative pay, and comfortable vacation routines, the recruiters of the Korha Revolutionary Army never resorted to deception, coercion, or other shady methods. To obtain the source of troops, recruit candidates will be fully informed of the meaning of their enlistment and the consequences when they join the Revolutionary Army.

And even so, whenever the revolutionary army went to a place, there were always countless people who wanted to join the revolutionary army.Some people just want to defend their hometown, while others are fascinated by the brilliant and illusory ideals behind the revolutionary army. They firmly believe that their bloody battles are not for the benefit of the founding family and federal officials, but for the re-establishment of freedom and new order.

Especially in a place like the main star of Antiga, the so-called freedom fighter is far more popular than the title of federal running dog.

Marshal Augustus Mengsk of the Revolutionary Army just attended the enlistment ceremony of about [-] Antiga recruits a few minutes ago, and accepted the oath of these soldiers to him as the Supreme Commander of the Revolutionary Army.

Surrounded by soldiers including Kerrigan, Corporal Faraday, and Raynor, Augustus walked out of the passage on the side of the conscription center.On their left side, there are two different passages surrounded by yellow and black isolation panels, one of which is a crowded queue of recruits, and the other is a militia and retired soldiers with military experience.

When Augustus, wearing a cloak embellished with bronze epaulettes, walked past the Antigian recruits who were preparing to enlist, those passionate young people pursued him like a superstar, even the most rebellious The drag racers, professional crash racers and even the Mafia all regard him as "a brilliant and special person".

For Augustus, such scenes have long been familiar. He has become a symbol of revolution and freedom, the kind of regular guest who often appears on propaganda posters, wanted notices and UNN universe news studios. .

The Tyrannian Federation's mainstream media tried to slander Augustus's reputation, but he became a well-known figure, even more famous than those members of the Federal Parliament.

Augustus spoke some of his usual encouraging words to the young men about to enlist in his army, and then walked a block away from the recruiting center amidst the admiration of the crowd.

"Seeing those young people reminds me of when I first joined the army. I was sixteen or seventeen years old, ignorant and ignorant. They are not so much adults who can choose and take responsibility for themselves as childish children." Augustus Say it all.

"Most of them are the first to die on the battlefield. They are so nervous that they forget to shoot when facing the Zerg. It has nothing to do with courage and wisdom. Many people died when they first set foot on the battlefield. Only the luckiest Only people can live to the year when they retire," he said.

"...someone has to be a soldier, some people have to protect other people."

"If this multi-galaxy war continues, it is likely that billions of warriors will die because of it," Kerrigan said, "but without you to form the army, so many people will die for one Fighting with a common goal, no matter how many fighters there are, it will be a mess in the end.”

"They came to join us because of their homeland or wanting to be a hero, whereas someone like Raynor or Matt Horner had a purer and nobler aspiration."

"Peace has long been far away from us." Augustus waved his hand, throwing away his own sentimentality: "Only you are always comforting me, Sarah, and Tychus and Hank will cause me trouble .”

It has to be said that in the eyes of Augustus, Kerrigan, a beautiful girl with fiery red soft hair, is petite and lovely, with a beautiful face and a perfect figure.She's pretty much perfect, aside from being mean to protect herself.

Influenced by her past upbringing, Kerrigan is like a little beast with thorns and thorns to protect herself.

"Hmm." Kerrigan shrugged: "You don't know Tychus and they are very jealous of my status in your mind, they always think we can't hear what they are saying, but they forget that I can read minds —According to some planets, I am a witch."

"You are not a witch, dear." Augustus glanced at Kerrigan, sighed in his heart, and stopped talking about this matter:

"The evacuation work in other cities should have been completed, and when the remaining psychic disruptors are activated, we can free up our hands to deal with the main lairs of the zerg in Antiga, eliminate the zerg from the root, and prevent the infestation Yu Ran."

"Isn't there any movement from the Zerg and the federal army today?"

"After crushing the landing forces of Nova Squadron and Delta Squadron, the Garm Swarm retreated to their main lair on the red platform of Antiga. The Federation Fleet tried to engage our fleet several times , but Warfield's fleet avoided them in time," Kerrigan said.

"If the zerg hadn't killed them, we don't know how much sacrifice we would have to make." Augustus had seen the flattened federal landing force base. When Renault's ranger troops arrived there, the federal base had already Torn to shreds by the garm swarm.

Raynor could hardly find a whole body there, and the brown power armor of Delta Squadron and the purple armor of Nova Squadron were thrown aside like tinfoil cans that had been torn apart at will.The speckled flesh and blood have all merged into the dark purple creeper on the surface, absorbed by those viscous jelly-like substances as nutrients.

That was definitely an extremely tragic scene, and Renault described it as a pot of overcooked meat.

"Now in the outer space orbit of the main star of Antiga, there are fleets of ours, the swarm, the Federation and the Protoss at the same time."

Kerrigan said: "From the moment the Protoss fleet appeared in the Antiga system, they launched an attack on the Zerg fleet staying in Antiga's orbit."

"A blue arc of light on the horizon these days is a sign that the Protoss fleet is firing in orbit, and our and the Federation's fleets can only choose to avoid it."

"It sounds like two giants are fighting in the human garden. They can trample the garden and the house with one foot, and we can only hide and shiver." Augustus said.

"At present, it seems that the Protoss fleet has an absolute advantage in the space battle. The aftermath of the fleet's main guns alone destroyed the mountains south of the Antiga equator and created a huge chasm." Kerrigan said Augustus said.

"They'll soon be able to pull out their forces to deal with the zerg on Antiga Prime, but given that the protoss didn't hesitate to destroy Cha Sara and Mar Sara, there's a fear in command that they will do the same. Destroy Antiga."

"The commander of the Protoss Fleet, Tassadar, is a benevolent 'person'. Unless he thinks that the planet is hopeless, he will never take extreme measures." Augustus' understanding of Tassadar Much more than Kerrigan ever knew.

"If we can work together to remove the zerg from Antiga, then they won't have to destroy the planet."

At this time, Augustus noticed several advertising airships with blue and red lights circling above Ansardar.

These large spaceships driven by refined high-energy can not only serve as luxury air cruise ships for the rich to visit the city and natural scenery, but also project a 65-foot (about 20-meter) wide holographic projection advertisement to the ground during the flight to promote the tower. Imported products from Sonny and other main star worlds.

Today, these advertising airships are used to promote the revolutionary ideas of Augustus and the numerous crimes of the Tyrann Federation. The propaganda airships will broadcast the programs of the Revolutionary Army Radio Station and the latest developments on the Antiga front. Selected UNN news programs will be broadcast.

Through these UNN news, Augustus can roughly know the views of Tarsonis and other mainstream worlds on the destruction of the Sara galaxy and the battle on the front line of Antiga.And although UNN has begun to emphasize the threat that the invading alien races may pose to human beings, most people in the core world don't pay much attention to it, after all, the battlefield is still far away from many, many galaxies.

Sometimes these propaganda blimps projected a powerful image of Augustus giving a speech, and his father Angus Mengsk's speech was also recorded.In Augustus's view, this means of propaganda is not much different from the broadcast loudspeaker in the field.

When Augustus, who was walking, was just about to walk towards an armored vehicle guarded by guards on the side of the road, several A-17 Wraith fighter jets passing by at high speed chased an allosaurus that was out of control due to a psychic disruptor. Augustus flew overhead.

When Augustus looked towards the sky, he suddenly noticed that there was another sun that lasted for more than ten seconds next to the lukewarm sun in the sky—it was a ship that exploded. Star Spirit battleship.

The battle between the Protoss and the Zerg in space is about to end.

"Tassadar is about to contact us." Augustus did not step on the armored vehicle that was about to drive to the Marshal's headquarters, but asked his subordinates to take out the holographic projection communicators they carried with them.This was a gift from Augustus' elder brother Arcturus on Turasis II.

A green holographic projection screen was immediately unfolded in front of Augustus, with various data from the Marshal's Headquarters on it.

Augustus did not wait long before receiving a report from Warfield in the Revolutionary Army fleet, who bluntly stated that the Protoss fleet had defeated the fleet of the Gum Swarm.And the Federation Fleet next to them also witnessed such a scene, which made humans believe even more that the Protoss and the Zerg were incompatible enemies.

"...If you didn't see it with your own eyes, you would never believe what happened in the outer space orbit of Antiga. Now the synchronous orbit of the planet is full of Zerg corpses and wreckage of Protoss warships. An Antiga satellite occupied by Zerg." Even the calm Warfield was shocked by it.

"We have received a communication request from the flagship of the Protoss Fleet and will immediately transfer it to the Antiga Command," he said.

"The federal fleet has retreated to the edge of the Antiga galaxy. It seems that what happened in the outer space orbit of Antiga has scared them enough."

After Warfield's head disappeared, the image of Tassadar, the executive officer of the Protoss Expedition, suddenly appeared on the holographic projection screen composed of three-dimensional light and shadow in front of Augustus.

"En Taro Adun, the young human commander Augustus Mengsk." Even though the executive's voice came from the communication device instead of the will of the human mind, Augustus could still hear the waves crashing on the rock wall roar.

"When you landed on this planet and fought valiantly against the zerg, our probes witnessed it all," Tassadar said. "Even among the human species, you are worthy warriors."

"We are willing to defend the main star of Antiga at all costs, even if it will cost blood." Augustus said.

"The Supreme Council of the Protoss Empire once ordered me to destroy this infected human planet, because the law enforcement officers believe that once the human planet is infected, there is no cure, and only the purification of the melting flame can prevent the Zerg from continuing to spread in the universe ’” Tassadar said.

"Your courage gave me hope that the Zerg could be wiped out without purifying the planet. I decided to go against the order of the Supreme Council and send ground troops to help you clear the Zerg from Antiga."

"The Templars of Sagas will help you clear the Zerg from this planet, and let them see the wrath of the Sons of El!"

"This will definitely make you suffer blame and damage your reputation." Augustus felt sincerely pleased, because Tassadar was already determined to support him before he asked for the cooperation of the protoss.

In fact, Tassadar has always been reluctant to destroy a living planet.As long as there is another way to save it, he will try it.

"Salute to you, Executive Tassadar." Augustus said sincerely.

"A tribute to the warriors and the dying."
