The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

The long-term high-intensity battle consumed a lot of physical strength, and the blood boiling due to the frenzy of the battle had calmed down. She inserted the chainsaw sword into the central nervous system of a still struggling 'warrior' level, and then put the The carcass of the bug was used as a chair to sit on.

"This is Oregana, how is the battle going?"

[…We have regained the initiative after the mass use of gas bombs, and the soldiers are repairing. 】The person who answered was the team commander Aweiyi. She leaned against the outer wall of the fort with a flamethrower in her right hand, and the ground around her was covered with insect corpses【Boss, do you need support? 】

Poison type steel type suppresses insect type, fire type flight type suppresses insect type, Ren Tang sincerely does not deceive me.

"All the bugs in this tunnel have been poisoned, and the surrounding area is as peaceful as a cemetery in the middle of the night."

Oregana wanted to wipe the sweat off her face, but she still had a helmet on her head. She didn't dare to take off the helmet in such a poisonous gas environment. It would be embarrassing if she hung up for such a funny reason .

"We plan to go down for a while, and if there is anything, we will call for support. By the way, talk to Siamiao, get ready for a protracted war, and get all the guys ready."

【Yes! 】

After hanging up the communication, Oregana looked at the blade in her hand, most of the sharp saw blade had fallen off, and it seemed that it was no longer usable.Without the saw blade, the weapon is no better than an iron bar.

This is also impossible, the chainsaw sword is not a durable weapon in the first place.Saw blades, even from the best materials, will wear down severely when cutting at high speeds.

It is worth mentioning that the problem of insufficient durability also occurs on the Nova Knife, whose blade is often damaged by its own heat.

The Tartarus fleet does not need to consider the cost of individual equipment. After all, everything from personnel to equipment are consumables. However, if the durability of a melee weapon cannot support a battle, no one, no matter how generous Way to tolerate.Then we must find a way to solve this problem.

Leaving the chainsword in place, Oregana took out a spare weapon from the equipment rack at her waist - two lightsabers, and then activated the triple beam gun equipped on the outside of her right wrist, just like every Orc warlord , she also has her own unique set of weapons.

To put it bluntly, Oregana doesn't like lightsabers.These weapons look cool, but are difficult to master - they're so light that you might think you're just walking around with two flashlights, which makes it very difficult for untrained beginners to use them. It is easy to be surprised.For example, when I raised the knife too much, the tip of the knife cut my spine, or I didn't grasp the angle when I swung it, and I unloaded one of my legs...

The first time he played with a lightsaber, the legion commander cut off his left hand and half of his left foot with a single slash...

"Kira Yamato beats others with a lightsaber, you are better than him, you beat yourself..." I was ridiculed at that time.

But if you don't like it, you don't like it, you still have to use it when you use it.

Holding the hilt of the sword in her hand, Oregana carefully walked towards the depths of the tunnel.

--------

The person lying on the bed moved a little, and let out a faint groan.

"are you awake?"

The young soldier who had done emergency treatment and was lying on the bed in his shirt - Aslan heard a harsh voice and reflexively wanted to sit up, but was defeated by a sharp pain and fell on the bed panting heavily.

"It's embarrassing to see you like this." Yitzhak sat on the edge of the bed, holding a roll of magazines in his hand, and spit out a bitter comment, "It's lucky to be alive! If Nicole didn't save you desperately, You just told me there."

"I am..."

"You were covered and splashed by the firepower of the plasma cannon bugs, Atlas shattered, and then the overwhelming bugs rushed over... It's lucky that you survived... It's really... really great..."

His eyes were always focused on the overturned magazine, his face was stern, and his voice was trembling.

Perhaps because his mind was not clear enough, Aslan looked around blankly.This is a white room with soft light. There are four beds, one of which is empty. One of the two patients is wrapped in bandages, and the other's right elbow is neatly cut off.

Aslan was startled, endured the pain and lowered his head to look at himself to see if he was missing any arms or legs.

"Don't look, although one or two are broken, but nothing is missing." Yitzhak put down the magazine.

"Where is this place?"

"Aboard the Glacier, the medical center." The answer was Diego who just walked in from the door, because he was in the hospital, so his voice was very low, "I will transfer to [Silver Pan Kaina] tonight." Get treatment and tomorrow morning you'll be alive and making out with Nicole again."

"Ugh...Nicole, where is she?"

"I guess you're about to wake up, so I'll get you some food. I guess you'll be back soon."

Aslan's attention was shifted to Nicole, so he didn't pay attention to the word [Silver Plate Kaina] mentioned by Diego.It was the front-line fortress "One Night City" that was just anchored more than ten hours ago. This kind of fortress was designed by the legion leader himself. It was remodeled based on the empty fortress, and part of the defensive capabilities were discarded in exchange for a deployment speed that was more than four times , in theory, it only takes six hours at the fastest to make the fortress into a usable state.

Slapping a fort in the face before the enemy reacts is the essence of advancing tactics.

In addition to [Silver Disk Kaina], War Scythe sent an engineering team to release a Minmatar control tower on the satellite of the fourth planet in this galaxy, anchor it with the help of the satellite's gravity system, and place a refinement array , ammunition assembly array, equipment assembly array, ship assembly array and a large number of defensive turrets.Extract minerals from the compressed ore brought in, and then start construction of fifty hunting-level mining barges on the spot.

Since bugs can throw asteroids out to hit people, it means that there are rich ore reserves here, right?

"The Zerg's response was beyond our expectations, so we have to be prepared for a long-term battle." He said to the generals of the Federal Army. "Where is the Zerg's strength? It's just endlessly hatching cheap fighters and making them It's just a large number of troops, and we have a lot of ways to restrain them."

Isn't it just violent soldiers? Whoever said it would be the same.

But there is a problem here, that is why the main battlefield is on the ground, but there is a starship manufacturing base?

That's because more than ten hours ago, the legion leader who went deep into the nest sent back a set of pictures, which were taken in the deepest part of the nest.

A huge cavity was excavated in the deepest part of the nest, and the hardened biomass formed a support in the cavity to prevent the top of the cave from collapsing. Several insect ships shaped like straight-shelled nautiluses were half buried there, and their bottoms were buried below the ground. The tip of hundreds of meters is almost poking to the ceiling.There are some vesicle-shaped attachments on the shell, the large ones are tens of meters long, and the small ones are only half the length of a person.Oregana cut open the shell of a small vesicle with a lightsaber out of curiosity, and what was revealed inside made her look pale.

It was a hollow tube with high rigidity that could rotate freely. There were round pupils around the tube, and the hollow tube was connected to an unknown organ glowing with blue light inside.This is inevitably reminiscent of something called [Naval Cannon].

Unlike the ones used to transport brain worms, this is a real starship for combat.

If it had just evolved in less than twenty hours, then the difficulty of this battle would have risen by more than one level in an instant.

"Should we continue to fight? I have a bad feeling. If not, we should withdraw..."

"No, if we withdraw now, there will be nothing left. The morale of the earth circle will fall again and again, and the blue universe will continue to make troubles." Oregana rejected the proposal of Dajiba. Just drive the dreadnought over to burn glass, no matter what the process is, we will win."

"Well... if you think so." The army chief's words were not wrong, if it wasn't for the morale of the Earth sphere, there was no need to fight this battle.Now that the fight has begun, quitting halfway is declaring one's own failure, and the results of war failure are without exception disastrous.Although there is no cession of land and no compensation, a major reshuffle of the power system and a change of dynasty are completely foreseeable, and the chaos and pain brought about by the change of dynasty are beyond the reach of human beings who have just gone through wars in this world.

"These bugships should still be alive. We started to withdraw, recorded our current coordinates, and started bombarding this position in 10 minutes."

"learn."

After hanging up the communication, Scythe of War rubbed his temples, he saw A Phosphus walking in from the door without a sound, and nimbly jumped onto the soft chair to form a ball.

"Your master, I really can't help it... It would be great if I could be smarter."

Although he knew that cats couldn't talk, he still couldn't help but spoke to Ah Phosphorus.

The brown caracal shook its ears, yawned big, and looked at Da Jiba with a subtle expression.

The war scythe seemed to read a line from its cat face...

Probably my own illusion...

Chapter 171 Chapter 159: Claw marks on the rock wall

When the coalition forces thought they had gained the upper hand, Bug taught them a good lesson.

Everyone knew that the bugs hadn't been swept away, but no one thought that there were still such a huge number of them. The 89 frontline bases were attacked by swarms of insects. The intensity of the enemy's attack and the number of soldiers invested were the most exaggerated since the beginning of the war.

The air-to-air plasma cannons are used to attack ground targets. The powerful plasma balls are thrown from hundreds of kilometers away. This is an attack that can severely damage a battleship. How can a frontline base designed to defend against conventional Zerg infantry resist it? live?

The "Warrior" class storms the destroyed wall section, where it engages human soldiers.Under the intensive firepower, the fallen corpses of the bugs piled up into mountains, but the follow-up troops stepped on the corpses of their companions and continued to advance. This tragic battle lasted for tens of minutes, and the situation did not improve until the gas bombs were dropped on a large scale.

It was the first time that coalition soldiers suffered casualties. Before the air force destroyed the plasma cannon bugs, many soldiers were reduced to ashes under this long-range strike.This is the true sense of ashes and ashes. Under the high temperature enough to destroy the armor plate of the battleship, the power armor and the human flesh and blood are directly vaporized.

After investing all the reserves and using weapons of mass destruction without any scruples, the worms' crazy counterattack was repelled, but no one knew whether the worms still had the strength to continue such attacks.Who knows whether this is a desperate long live charge, or just the first wave of a wave attack?

There is another such blow, and it is not known whether the soldiers can resist it.Moreover, some things expressed by the bugs in this large-scale battle are also impossible to ignore-before the arrival of the bug sea charge, they were blasted with plasma cannon bugs, and there were even heavily armored tank bugs on some battlefields Opening the way with the scorpion, the 'Warrior' level followed behind and lined up to avoid the phenomenon of shooting.

There are indications that, compared to the previous battles, they seem to have become much smarter.

How many troops do the bugs have underground, what are the underground cavities, what are the tunnels, and where do they lead?

To answer these questions, several 'Discovery' scanning probes were launched onto the planet's surface. 'Discovery' is the standard type of probe most commonly used in satellite mining operations, and is usually used to scan atmospheric and soil data, but with some minor tweaks, they can also be used to scan deeper layers.Because it is done full-time, it is more efficient than the radar on the battleship.

In a nearly destroyed outpost, Backling is changing the blade of his Nova Knife.Marines stood around the outpost, on alert with flamethrowers in hand.Another group of people is dismantling all the things that can be dismantled in the outpost, and moving them separately to the transportation boat.

This outpost must be abandoned.

This is an outpost built by the Federal Army. Compared with the fortress of the United/ZAFT Allied Forces, it is really just an outpost. The protective wall is so weak that it can cause damage at the level of a 'warrior'. Tank bugs It can be smashed through in two strokes, and no defense against tunnel digging has been considered at all - laying a three-centimeter-thick metal plate on the ground is definitely not an effective defense method.Jean Rezac, who lost his legs, expressed in the hospital that he wanted to drag out the person who designed the outpost and shoot him.

The heroic old soldier lost his legs after being plotted against by a raid from the underground, and now all that remains of him is a hand that his mother gave him.

Due to Rezak's injury, he was unable to return to the battlefield in a short time, so the commander of the tough guy unit was replaced by Johnny Rigo.

This young soldier is holding a rifle and standing on high alert. There are no snipers in the swarm, so he will not pose any danger.

Backling once persuaded him, hoping that he would evacuate immediately with his people, and leave the rest to Tartarus' marines, but he refused——

"Thank you for your help, Colonel!" The soldier who was a head and a half taller than Ling Ling said firmly, "But the tough guys must stand here until the order to retreat is issued."

Just like other troops in this operation, the orders they received were "Stick to the position, nail it there like a nail, and the follow-up troops will use you as a springboard to advance".But the battle situation has developed into what it is now, even if they retreat, no one will criticize them.

Since they persisted in this way, Back Ling couldn't force it. He could only take his subordinates to stay with them and send the wounded away via the shuttle.It wasn't until the next morning that the order from the superior [recycle everything that can be recycled, and abandon the outpost] was issued.

A light spot appeared in the corner of the field of vision, and Back Ling looked there and found the identification signal of the friendly army.It was a measuring probe, and it was scanning this part of the ground in detail.

"Dangling", the half-damaged blade was discarded on the ground, and the new blade shone dazzlingly under the sunlight.

Suddenly, he felt a strange fluctuation, as if someone was watching him.

"Well?"

【Um?What's wrong? 】

"I feel something is wrong, speed up!"

【Yes! 】

--------

"The speed of cave digging is very fast." At the meeting of the generals, War Scythe showed multiple sets of data scanned within a few hours. "Most of the tunnels used to attack before were blocked. related."

The hole that Oregana rushed into was not blocked. This was because she hacked to death the worker bees who were blocking the work. The poisonous gas traveled down the road, and the poison overwhelmed everything it touched before it was so thin that it lost its power. thing.The bugships didn't lose their effect due to the toxin, they stayed where they were, probably because the brain worms controlling them were poisoned to death before giving the order...

Eventually the cavern collapsed under orbital bombardment, and the bugships that failed to lift off were buried deep in the rubble.

"The loss is a bit hard to take..."

Someone whispered.

In addition to the ground front, the fleet in orbit has also been hit hard.Because the attack came too fast, many supporting warships in low-orbit positions did not have time to react. Four ships of the Federal Army lost their combat capabilities. The Dragoon-class destroyer "White Rose" belonging to the Talos fleet was sunk.

The driver Crowe Halloumi expressed a confused face. He slipped his hand and hit the plasma ball during the process of throwing the marines into the arena, so he was complained by his colleagues——【The worst thing to die】.

"We must act quickly. There is evidence that the bugs are making battleships," Oregana paused, and continued, "Maybe the quality is not very good, but according to the usual characteristics of the Zerg, the quantity may be very alarming."

The Zerg have a total of more than a dozen colonized planets, spanning three galaxies, and now all the battleships can only block one of the galaxies.

If the opponent holds back a wave of fleets in the galaxy next door and jumps over, it will really make people drink a pot.

This information made the generals of the federal army feel very nervous. They all knew that their main battleships were not suitable for shelling the enemy in space. Not to mention the few battleships capable of shelling, the ships were too old.

"But now..."
