167. The arrival of the Zerg
On November 26, the last prophecy was fulfilled. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt noon, a large number of Zerg appeared at the junction of the Capital Galaxy and the Jubilant Galaxy. And what greeted them was the trap and star thunder planted by the capital guards early.
The starry star thunder blew up the Zerg's first troops. However, with the increasing number of insect soldiers, the chaos of the Zerg quickly stabilized. It may be the command of the intelligent zerg, they did not rush in, but just kept scattering, eliminating nearby traps and star mines, leaving a place for the zerg that arrived later.
When the Zerg was about to be cleared, the fleet of the Capital Guardian Army was already in full array, constantly forcing back the opponent with artillery fire and mechas. Because of the popularity of the back-crystal alloy sword, the guards also gained the upper hand for a while. In order to occupy more space, the Zerg fought even more desperately against the guards.
When the Zerg was fighting for their lives, Huaxia issued an order to preserve its strength and eliminate the Zerg as much as possible. So the guards slowly left a certain space for the Zerg in a state of fighting and retreating.
The other direction of the wormhole, the Jubilant Galaxy, is defended by some legions of the Fifth Line of Defense. Marshal Lee recalled the legions of the Fifth Line of Defense as early as the relocation of the nearby galaxy. Some of the legions arrived in the jubilant system in time to prepare for war, and the remaining legions were in the border system, assisting in the emigration, and then retreating to the jubilant system.
The Jubilation Galaxy is not far from the U.S.-Canada defense line, but there are still quite a few galaxies on the way. Considering the attack of the Zerg, Marshal Li ordered the inhabitants of these systems to urgently emigrate a month ago. However, these systems have a large number of inhabitants, and the speed of relocation is not fast. That's why Marshal Lee asked the Fifth Army to assist.
For the next month. The number of the Zerg army is rising rapidly. According to the monitoring instruments, more than 200 million Zerg appeared at the junction of the capital-Jubilant galaxy. Moreover, the increase of the Zerg has not stopped.
The officers who remained in the military headquarters building were suppressed by the number of Zerg and the speed of the increase. With the current rate of Zerg troops, if the preparation time exceeds half a year, the capital galaxy will definitely not be able to hold it.
Fortunately, the five generalissimos are still relatively calm. "Where did these zergs come from, and are there really so many of them?" Marshal Situ Rong was a little puzzled by the number of Zerg.
"Ministry of Information, go and retrieve the monitoring in the non-pulling direction. Let's see if the number of Zerg in their territory has dropped? "Marshal Dai immediately thought of the Zerg in the territory of Philadelphia.
"It's possible that the Zerg cleaned up all the territory of Africa and transferred their forces to other federations." Marshal Liang also supported Marshal Dai's speculation.
"The overall number of Zerg is more than ours. It could also be reinforcements from another group of Zerg. We can't ignore it. The Ministry of Information will investigate as soon as possible. Fifth Army. team of the fleet. Let them withdraw as soon as possible, and the immigration task will be put aside for the time being. Marshal Li Qiguang quickly made a decision.
Guardian of the Capital System. The army is no more than 50 million soldiers. When the number of Zerg was clear at 200 million, Li Qiguang also had to let all the fleets of the Fifth Army return to help resist the Zerg.
Fifth Army. It was the troops stationed on the Fifth Line of Defense on the US-Canada border. The head of the United Front Work Department is none other than Liang Jisheng, the heir of the Liang family. He received an order from the military headquarters 2 months ago. Have the legions retreat to the Jubilation system in batches. Prepare to take on the Zerg.
The first retreating legions have long been stationed in the Jubilation Galaxy. The second group of retreating legions did not return too quickly because they received a lot of tasks to assist the immigrants. When Li Qiguang sent out the emergency return mission, those legions were still in the vicinity of the Jubilation Galaxy. Proceed with the immigration mission.
When he received the emergency order to return to defense, Liang Jisheng also had to immediately return to the defense as a team. As for the immigrants, they can only be handed over to the planet's guardians. Li Qiguang asked Marshal Liang to inform Li Jisheng of the situation of the Zerg here as much as possible, so that after the other party came back, he could immediately go into battle.
The Guardian of the Capital System has built a new line of defense on the Capital System. Although the formation time is not very sufficient, the capital system has a lot of materials, and the defense line is still relatively solid.
Some families donated their items directly to the military department because of the inconvenience of long-distance transportation of certain large weapons. Especially the wealthy Zeng family, because of the early departure time, many weapons on the private planet were not taken away, and the head of the Zeng family directly notified the military department to receive weapons from his own planet.
As a result, most of the semi-automatic batteries in the capital's defense line were from the Zeng family's inventory, which played a great role in defending against the attack of the Zerg. There are also advanced mecha and weapons donated by the Zeng family, which have directly raised the equipment of many soldiers to a higher level. Those new mechas, which are more expensive than the house, are now being transported to the logistics department in batches.
There are also many warehouses left by the Zeng family, which were also emptied by Xia Shengning and Fang Shiyi one by one in this month and sent to the logistics department of the capital and the front line respectively. In the face of such a bold Zeng family, the Xia family didn't mind returning some of the materials for them.
By the time all the legions of the Fifth Army arrived in the Jubilation system, it was already mid-January. Marshal Li Qiguang was unwilling to let the Zerg continue to increase its troops and sit idly by, so he decided to take the initiative. He sent the capital guards and the fleet of the Fifth Army to flank the Zerg army in front and rear.
The soldiers equipped with crystal swords were very brave, and in a short period of time, they stopped the slow expansion of the Zerg army. The reaction of the Zerg army was also very fast, and in the face of the wolf-like humans, the Zerg army actually shrank the team. They changed the direction of their expansion to horizontal, and did not directly target the human legions at all.
Seeing the reaction of the Zerg, the five generalissimos couldn't help frowning. "Since the Zerg invasion, this is the first time that the formation has shrunk on a frontal battlefield, right? Their command is becoming more and more disciplined. "Marshal Dai's tone is not very good.
"This Zerg sneak attack, it is estimated that there is a wise Zerg at the level of the King Zerg or above commanding behind the scenes. will shrink the defense in a timely manner, and it is estimated that it is not something that the level of the military master insect can do. Marshal Liang used an affirmative sentence, and the five generalissimos also acquiesced.
"No matter what, we're going to try to get rid of these zergs and reduce their numbers. The Qian family system is already building a new line of defense, so let's delay as much as possible. Marshal Szeto was also thinking about the consequences of defeat.
"The Fifth Army had 13 corps, plus the Escort Corps. There are about 440 million soldiers. If we do it quickly, we still have a chance to hold on to the capital system. "Marshal Wu wants to fight.
"We have a lot of people, as long as the equipping rate of the back crystal sword is increased, the battle situation will not be too bad." Marshal Li obviously also wanted to leave the Zerg army here directly.
"Report to the marshal, I request to join the convoy." Xia Shengning has been following several marshals in the past two months. Although there was a time to leave to collect supplies, Xia Shengning stayed in this military headquarters building for most of his time.
"My special transport capacity can make the logistics of the escort force run faster. If I leave the army, it will be easier to transport the crystal sword and insect corpses. ”
Xia Shengning's words made the five generalissimos all look at him. "Xiao Xia, you were given the task to stay with me. Even if there is a task. You can't leave for too long. Marshal Liang didn't want Xia Shengning to take risks, so he had to tactfully remind this young man who was half a big man.
The rest of the marshals also didn't speak, but looked at him with relatively gentle eyes. At all times, officers still prefer brave soldiers.
"Although. I appreciate your blood. But I don't like reckless soldiers. Do you have what it takes to keep yourself safe? Although Li Qiguang regarded Xia Jingjun as his great enemy. But in the face of the other party's juniors, they will not do anything insidious. And at this time, it is not the time for infighting.
"Report Marshal. I served in the second line of defense for two and a half years, and I was a young soldier of the former 12th Frontier Army. The mecha piloting skills are clear, and he has rich experience in fighting the Zerg. I am confident that I will serve in the logistics department of the Guardian Army, and I will not be easily killed by the Zerg. ”
Xia Shengning seriously reported his army serial number, and the officers with eyes immediately verified the fact that Xia Shengning had served for two years. The impression of the five generalissimos on Xia Shengning has improved a little.
"Xia Xiaoer is really willing to throw you directly to the front line." Several marshals also admired Xia Xingbang's ruthless approach. The mortality rate among young soldiers remains high. Even if some people from big families are willing to send their children to the front line for training, they don't dare to send them to the junior barracks.
Although these young soldiers will be taken care of by the upper echelons, as a formal legion, they do not care whether they go out on a mission or live or die. Moreover, the ranks of the junior soldiers are all teenagers, and the loss rate is a little higher than that of ordinary regiments. And Xia Shengning can serve there for two years, and the combat capability can still be guaranteed.
"You can call the shots?" Marshal Situ still has the carefulness of a woman. "Report to the marshal, I can. The order given to me by Lieutenant General Xia Xingbang was to act at the opportune opportunity. When facing his superiors, Xia Shengning still made his father a lieutenant general.
"Okay, I'll transfer you to the logistics department of the Guard." Li Qiguang faced such an ideaful teenager, and he couldn't help but think about it. "After you go, follow Major General Li Qi directly. For all your transportation tasks, you can communicate directly with Major General Rich. ”
"Report to the marshal, got it." Xia Shengning, who received the appointment, left with great interest. The remaining marshals couldn't help but praise, "The next generation of the Xia family seems to be the central figure of the younger generation. Li Qiguang also had to sigh that Xia Xingbang's reluctance and Xia Shengning's courage were all things that other families couldn't do.
"This child's mental power is already S-level, and he is a soldier. The team recommended coming back to the federal military academy. Marshal Dai looked at the information very carefully, and also saw Xia Shengning's application and reasons.
"This kid is really talented. The Xia family also left a fleet for him. "Marshal Wu still knows a lot about the situation on the Central Star.
"Alas, the fleet belongs to the old family master of Xia, and it is estimated that the old family master also stayed." Marshal Dai was still quite clear about the situation of the previous generation of the Xia family. Summer's wife, Dai Sisi, is Marshal Dai's aunt.
Dai Sisi died 2 years ago because of his frailty. The old family owner of Xia also lived in a simple house because of this. For this great relocation of the capital system, Summer is also reluctant to leave. Knowing that Xia Shengning was staying, Xia even used the excuse of taking care of his great-grandson and left his fleet behind.
Xia Jingjun knew that his father had already saved his will to die, and he couldn't persuade him, so he could only kneel down and say goodbye to his old father. Of course, among the small tasks left for Xia Shengning, there is also the point of taking away his great-grandfather, but Xia Shengning himself does not have much confidence.
With the addition of Xia Shengning, the materials and weapons of the capital guards are even more abundant. Xia Shengning would occasionally take a detour to deliver combat supplies to the Fifth Army. (To be continued.) )
