Humanity's understanding of the Zerg is all superficial, but they know very little about the deeper aspects. The known information is accumulated from many years of combat and the experience of their ancestors.
The Zerg have a much more detailed understanding of humans, because by virtue of their own advantages, the Zerg can disguise themselves as insects and go deep into human society to collect intelligence, but humans cannot.
The king insect issued an order to suspend the team attacking the planet. As long as the human planet is safe, the human army will not rush to rescue.
When the human situation here is critical, let the human army reinforce it little by little. When the human commander has no choice but to rescue, he will sneak into the encirclement even if he knows there is a scam.
The battleship dispatched by the 12th Army is a medium-sized battleship in the army. It is larger than the Violet and is more suitable for war. The weapon configuration is the highest-end. The battleship is equipped with various commonly used arms and has a complete establishment of more than 2,000 people.
The captain's name is Zhang Guangyi. He is in his forties and belongs to the young group. He has performed very well in the military. The task of rescuing people this time is left to them.
Zhang Guangyi, dressed in a straight military uniform, stood in front of a huge light screen. The starry sky outside was displayed on the screen. His angular face looked resolute. Although he was about to face huge dangers, he showed no fear.
From the moment the entire army sets off, all soldiers are ready to sacrifice to fight the Zerg. Humans have stronger combat effectiveness and weapons than the Zerg, but in the face of endless bugs, no matter how powerful the weapons and cultivation are, they will be exhausted. when.
There are endless bugs to kill, and the supply of the 12th Army is a big problem. The logistics troops have not kept up. They are all refilling energy at military bases on various planets.
This is fine in the short term. With several planets being occupied by the Zerg, even if the fleet carries a lot of spare energy, if they really want to fight the Zerg, they won't be able to hold on for long. The energy will be exhausted after a few rounds of artillery fire. They have spare energy and they can't hold it back. Stop consumption.
The 12th Army must not turn a blind eye after receiving the message from Li Quanzhi and others asking for help. The 12th Army went to rescue people, and it was impossible for the entire fleet to go.
Their mission is to intercept the Zerg and cover the evacuation of the people as soon as possible. They must not fall into the Zerg encirclement to save people. Although all this is the conjecture of the staff, they cannot risk the lives of the entire army. In the end, the commander decided to put the rescue mission Leave it to Zhang Guangyi.
If everything was fine and everyone returned safely, it would be hard to say if they were really surrounded by the Zerg. It would be difficult to escape. Two thousand soldiers shed blood in the stars and no one was rescued.
Zhang Guangyi abandoned all distracting thoughts, first saved people and fought desperately when encountering the situation, hoping to reunite with the legion before the energy was exhausted.
Originally, the two sides were not far apart. In less than an hour, the battleship saw a series of spaceships sailing slowly towards them.
Zhang Guangyi contacted the other party, confirmed their identity, and asked them all to abandon the spacecraft and enter the warship.
The speed, defense, and weapons and equipment of the spaceship are not as good as the military's warships. Keeping them is a burden. Regardless of the value, the most important thing is to save your life first.
The warships and spaceships connected to the passage. Li Quanzhi and others landed on the military warships one after another. They were extremely happy to escape death one by one.
But Li Quanzhi soon felt something was wrong. The 12th Army was a large army with hundreds of warships and a flagship bigger than a city. Why was there only one warship to pick them up? Where was the main force of the 12th Army?
If it were a single warship, it wouldn't be much better than their spaceship. It would still be dangerous if it really encountered the Zerg. It seemed that they were not completely safe yet.
Looking for an opportunity, he quietly told his wife about the situation and asked her to be prepared. Once danger came, he would send out the prepared email. Those were the last words they left for their daughter. They did not have the courage to say goodbye to their daughter via video. I left her a letter.
Originally on the spaceship, Wang Wanting would send out the email as soon as the Zerg approached their spaceship. Unexpectedly, the Zerg retreated inexplicably, and the suicide note remained.
At this moment, Li Quanzhi saw that the military only had one warship coming to pick them up, and felt very unsafe. It would still be dangerous if they really encountered the Zerg, and they had not escaped the threat of death.
Li Quanzhi and others were taken aboard the warship. Because the 12th Army had been fighting and used a lot of weapons, the warehouse was very empty, so they could just go in and rest.
The attitude of the soldiers leading the way was quite mild. They just asked them not to run around and rest here for the time being. They would see how the regiment commander arranged for them when they returned.
After all, the mission of the 12th Army is to fight against the Zerg. It is impossible to leave this star field without authorization before the crisis. There are still many planets in the periphery that have not been evacuated. Since there is a war, the surrounding areas must be vacated to station troops, and this area The star field is surrounded and the Zerg cannot be allowed to continue to spread. No matter how heavy the casualties are, they must hold on.
The Imperial Military Headquarters is mobilizing various legions and deploying heavy troops around it. After all, this place already belongs to the belly of the Empire. If it spreads, it will reach the center of the Empire. This is something that all the upper echelons will never tolerate. Their safety is the most important thing.
Therefore, the 12th Army cannot retreat during this period. Less than five days after the Zerg outbreak, they have already occupied more than a dozen planets and are expanding at an extremely fast speed.
There are still two days before the major legions can arrive. By then, they will definitely be building their bases. They will first clean up the surrounding Zerg spies, and then move forward step by step to recover planets one by one. I hope those who have not escaped can persist until the army rescues them. .
Zhang Guangyi looked at the surrounding starry sky intently, cheering up all the soldiers. The Zerg may appear at any time, so they must not relax.
The quality of the soldiers of the 12th Army is so high. Whether it is driving warships, navigation, detection, or precise weapons strikes, they are all top-notch.
Soon the soldier in charge of the surveillance shouted loudly: "Report to the captain, abnormal vital signs were found 100 stars ahead, it is likely to be the Zerg."
Zhang Guangyi looked at the star map and calmly ordered: "Go to the side and deviate slightly from the channel. As long as you don't get lost, we will go around."
The soldiers in charge of navigation immediately complied with this request, calculated the new route, and entered it into the battleship system. However, not long after, they discovered traces of the Zerg again.
Zhang Guangyi's face was gloomy. The staff had guessed that the Zerg had set up an ambush. Fortunately, not all of the army entered the encirclement. If both sides cooperated inside and outside, they might still be able to break through. If they were all trapped, there would be no army to save them.
Zhang Guangyi felt that since he was surrounded by the Zerg, he could only rush forward. He first contacted the flagship and reported the situation to the commander.
The commander of the 12th Army just said: "Don't rush forward. We will return now and approach in one direction. We will open fire when the two sides gradually get closer. Pay attention to maintaining our strength."
"Yes, Commander."
Zhang Guangyi hung up the communication and issued a series of orders. His battleship was equipped with only one mecha division, with less than 100 people.
, there are no more than 500 fighter planes, the Marine Corps has a larger number, and the rest are logistics personnel, but they are still capable of fighting.
Every soldier who enters the battleship must be the best in all aspects, otherwise he can only be assigned to the planet garrison and cannot enter the battleship.
Zhang Guangyi would not rashly launch an attack on the Zerg to break through, because it would be futile and would only waste energy in vain. The Zerg would kill them endlessly, and they must use overwhelming numbers to resist the attack of the Zerg army.
It's a pity that Zhang Guangyi thought well and did not have contact with those Zerg, but it would be strange if the Zerg could let them go.
After ending contact with the flagship, Zhang Guangyi ordered the warship to sail slowly and wait for the legion's rescue. When the time came, he would break through the Zerg blockade, escape the encirclement and join the army.
The King Insect received news that the human warship had reunited with several spaceships, and now it was time for them to take action.
