Chapter 628, Ground Rebellion

The number of ships that withdrew first was actually not large, mainly two battlecruisers and many cruisers.

After all, the Alliance also has a Retribution-class battleship, and it's also a slow-moving beast.

But as long as some ships go back first, that's a good thing.

Just as Varuk's fleet arrived at Aramita, the main fleet of the alliance also returned.

Then, Ye Licia made a very fierce decision: rush directly into Aramita!

At the same time, the Alliance ships that arrived earlier in the near-orbit of Aramita will also attack to provide support.

If you have the guts, stop it.

The Mechanicus fleet is also rational.

If they insist on intercepting, they will first suffer the loss of being attacked from both sides.

Then, the main fleet of the alliance rushed up and rushed into the coverage of the Aramita orbital firepower in a blink of an eye. Unless the main fleet of the alliance could be annihilated in such a short time, which was obviously impossible.

Once the main force of the alliance rushes in, the mechanical fleet will be dumbfounded and will not be able to pursue them at all. Otherwise, if they rush into the vicinity of Alamita's orbit, the firepower of the starport, star fortress and ground orbital artillery may be able to match that of ten battleships.

Starships cannot engage in a firefight with planets.

If the planetary defense system does not have its own starships to cover it, it will indeed appear clumsy and inflexible, and it will be easy for enemy ships to destroy the outer space stations one by one, and it will also be easy for them to seize the gaps in the star fortress trajectory and deploy troops to the ground to attack from the surface...

However, these plans will not work when there is a strong fleet in the opponent's orbit.

The two sides once again confronted each other in Aramita.

The Alliance fleet could not leave, and Varük's fleet did not dare to force an attack under the anti-orbital firepower, so the two sides remained in a stalemate.

Ye Lisia was relieved.

Looking at her conducting at this stage, there are some flaws and mistakes, but it should be generally correct.

In any case, she saved the main fleet of the alliance. Although one battlecruiser, the Ronglin, was severely damaged and was parked in the starport, and many small and medium-sized warships were lost in the naval battles in space over the past few days, but in general, the main force was still alive.

If we really compare the losses, the mechanical fleet's small and medium-sized ships may have suffered fewer explosions, but in terms of the main battleships, one Serpent-class battlecruiser was lost, two were seriously damaged, and one had to be returned to the factory for repairs, with its combat effectiveness basically paralyzed; although the other one could still fight, only its command system was damaged, and it was temporarily repaired, but it is estimated that due to poor command, it also lost 30% of its combat effectiveness.

In comparison, it’s hard to say who suffered the greater loss.

Considering that the fleet size and strength are inferior to the enemy and the jump point ambush strategy has been cracked, being able to achieve this can be considered a success.

Gu Hang himself thought so too.

He took some time to observe the naval battle situation in the real universe, and in a few brief conversations with Ye Licia, he praised his lady.

Ye Licia was not happy about Gu Hang's praise. Her next strategy was to maintain a conscientious and conservative attitude, and she confronted Varuk's fleet in Aramita for half a month.

The past half month has been relatively calm.

Although the atmosphere was tense, there was almost no actual fighting, and even exploratory confrontations were rare.

It seems that everyone knows that the area around the Aramita orbit is a battlefield, and no one can do anything to anyone else.

Half a month later, the situation changed quietly.

Aboard her flagship, Yelisia received news of a large-scale rebellion on the surface of Aramita.

Before this, there had always been unrest on the planet.

Even if Moro, the former general of casting, went down in person to appease and suppress the rebellion, and considering his relationship with Alfonzo's sect, it would be impossible for them to rebel.

However, the so-called "Aramita Sect" he established was composed of some of his own confidants and some people with wavering attitudes on Aramita. After all, this place has belonged to the Alfonzo Sect for thousands of years. Although Moro has always had the prestige of being the Forging General, it is inevitable that some people on the planet have sympathy for the Alfonzo Sect.

The Alliance attacked the ground with special operations and killed many leaders on Aramita who were loyal to the original sect, but they did not kill them all. They only killed the most important ones. With this thundering method and the arrival of the Alliance troops, they forced the planet to surrender.

The situation on the starport was not so bad. A short and fierce battle broke the bones of the opposition.

On the ground, there are still leaders among the opposition who are still alive; middle and high-level leaders are still alive; and the backbone forces are still there.

They were stunned and frightened at first; now they have recovered and have their greatest supporter, Varuk, outside.

It is not surprising that some people have become active.

Not to mention, Varük would definitely have his hand in it.

Just as the League knew when it came to attack Alamita that a strong fortress had to be conquered from the inside, the people of Alfonzo's sect naturally understood this as well.

As it happens, they have quite unique conditions. If the people in Aramita were to vote collectively, whether they wanted the Alfonzo sect or the so-called "Aramita sect" that had just been established for a month or two, it would be hard to say who would get more votes in the end.

After Moro went down, he was able to realize the severe test he would face.

With the support of hundreds of millions of alliance troops who landed on the surface of Aramita one after another, he launched a series of internal cleansing operations.

A lot of people died.

Until now, it is still difficult to say how many of those rebelled genuinely or were forced to rebel by cruel means.

But in general, the various rebellions on the planet were all within controllable range before.

Although the Alliance Army was very busy, having to go out and suppress rebellions everywhere, but generally speaking, they were all counterinsurgency operations, killing stubborn elements, arresting suspects, and sending them to concentration camps for custody. How to deal with them specifically was the business of the Aramita sect, and the Alliance would not interfere too much.

The scale of the battles was generally not large.

The worst place can't be considered a war, it can just be a military operation.

Until now, a large-scale rebellion broke out in an important industrial hive cluster in the southern hemisphere from the sub-nest area.

At first, it was the Aramita sect's army that went to suppress it.

They said they had suppressed the riots, but soon, news of riots came from successive areas, but they soon claimed to have suppressed them again. The Aramita sect was a little unconvinced and asked the alliance to send an infantry division in, along with investigators.

Once you enter, it's like entering a black hole, and there's no news from you anymore.

Now I realized the seriousness of the problem.

Aramita's own army was unreliable, and no one knew how many potential traitors were hidden in this group of troops that were reorganized on the spot. The Aramita army that went to suppress the rebellion was not destroyed, but a large number of them defected.

There is no other choice but for the alliance’s army to go up on its own.

If one division is not enough, then use an army group.

But the scale of the rebellion was underestimated.

After the army group moved in, it was subjected to a fierce siege.

What’s more surprising is that there is a large number of half-mechanical, half-Zerg fighter servants among them.

There are so many of these powerful units that even elite troops like the Marines would suffer in battle, let alone the ordinary Alliance Army.

An army group's coalition forces would not be destroyed instantly, but they could only defend a few places with great difficulty and suffered heavy casualties.

Subsequently, the Union Army Command began to increase its troops.

One army group, then another, and finally an entire army group was deployed there.

But soon, another area in the southern hemisphere also began to stir, and on an even larger scale.

Another army group passed by.

At this point, the alliance's force of over 100 million troops seemed a little stretched.

Although, this only occupied two army groups, and the other three were not moved.

I didn't dare to move.

If there is any movement, it will not just be the two nests in the southern hemisphere that will be in turmoil, but the whole world may be in turmoil.

In fact, after the two hive groups were controlled on a large scale, some pretty bad situations occurred.

The political significance can be put aside for now. What is most important militarily is actually the railgun fortresses controlled by them.

Some of these fortresses are independent in the wilderness, while others are built within hive cities.

They aimed their guns at the planet's outer orbit and fired fiercely.

The Alliance fleet is threatened from within.

To bombard the ground? To cover the army?
deficit.

Moreover, we must also worry about whether Varuk's fleet will take this opportunity to launch a large-scale attack.

If we fail to escape on the ground in time and have to face the attack of Varük's fleet outside, there will be a real risk of a major defeat.

The Alliance fleet was forced to dodge and avoid the areas covered by the orbital guns in the two areas in the southern hemisphere.

At the same time, a series of orbital defense systems such as star ports, star fortresses, and armed space stations must change their orbits around the earth, otherwise they will be attacked when they pass through the area covered by anti-orbital firepower.

After this space was given up, the disadvantages expanded rapidly.

The Varuck fleet then had a window to attack.

They still didn't dare to attack with the entire fleet. After all, most of the orbital guns on the ground were still under the control of the Alliance, as was the orbital defense system.

However, they can do something in the space area controlled by the rebels.

Although the corresponding airspace is quite narrow, it is relatively safe to deploy more support on the ground.

These rebels, who had mobilized and instigated a large number of local people, were somewhat short of equipment.

They have already controlled many arsenals in the Forge World and started to produce at full capacity. However, the areas they control are limited, and many advanced equipment and large weapons production lines are not perfect, and there are problems such as insufficient resources, which limit their production capacity.

The Varuk fleet can naturally supply them with these things directly from space.

Heavy tanks, Titans, Knights, and more biochemical robots created using Zerg technology.

The situation on the ground, which had been suppressed after the alliance sent more troops, suddenly became worse again.

A naval battle has now turned into the most critical stage of the ground battlefield.

Caught off guard, Ye Licia had to take the challenge.

She began to deploy more troops on the ground, even sending out Space Marines.

The New World Torch and the Fury Flame are both gone.

However, Ye Licia was a little disappointed with their fighting ability.

So, she secretly sent three companies of shadow regiments down.

These warriors, dressed in gray power armor without any markings, will focus on targeting several railgun fortresses.

At the same time, at the moment of attack, the alliance fleet will dispatch ships to cooperate with the action.

Several destroyers and cruisers will risk coming to the heads of the Space Marines at that time, facing the threat of anti-orbital guns and possible attacks from the Varuk fleet, and provide fire support for the Space Marines' actions.

Strive to capture some ground railguns as quickly and as early as possible.
