Chapter 231: Departure

Li Xiaoyi and Zheng Zha, according to Lai Qi's order, returned to their own company and went to meet the reconnaissance detachment, but after Wang Xia and Bawang led people to kill another wave of Zerg attacks, Li Xiaoyi and the others were called back by Lai Qi, this time in charge of the command of the entire army, because this unit had never resisted the attack of the Zerg before, and every time it ran ......

"Now there are more than 8,600 people left in the 6th Mobile Force, but more than 3,000 of them have been surrounded by a large number of battle bugs, and it is estimated that only 5,000 people will be able to join us at most, and most of these 5,000 people are wounded soldiers and deserters......"

Li Xiaoyi and Zheng Zhan listened to Chu Xuan's report, the current situation is really bad, and they don't know how the tough guy troops in the film returned to the fleet in space, and they didn't even have a plot introduction.

"Alas, looking at this situation, we can only follow Ritchie's plan first, first rendezvous with the remnants of the Sixth Mobile Force, and then defend in a group, waiting for the life-saving spaceship."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid we'll have to consider relying on 'special equipment'."

Speaking of "special equipment", Chu Xuan thought for a moment and shook his head, "It's better not to, now the human army and the Zerg must be closely monitoring the planet, we can't dodge, in that case, we will be attacked by both sides." ”

Hearing this, Li Xiaoyi could only sigh, no way, just like Zheng Zha's helplessness, who made his "10 billion light years" not strong enough, if the "10 billion light years" also had the ability to fly faster than light, he naturally didn't care too much, but unfortunately the "10 billion light years" didn't, if it was exposed to the human army now, it would inevitably be attacked by the human fleet.

Under the continuous operation, even if the human fleet is garbage, the mill can consume the "tens of billions of light years".

Because of the space war, it consumes too much energy!

In a way, space warfare is somewhat similar to naval warfare in the era of battleships, both require a strong firepower projection capability, except that battleships fire shells. The space battleship launches a powerful energy output.

The first actual nuclear weapon of mankind, "Little Boy", contained 64 kilograms of uranium, but only no more than 1,000 grams of uranium participated in nuclear fission, of which only 600 grams of material were actually converted into energy. The energy released is equivalent to about 13,000 tons of yellow high explosives.

And the power of 13,000 tons of yellow high explosives is a bit insufficient for a space battleship, and even the energy shield can't be moved.

Therefore, even if the space battleship launches energy bombs, there will still be a lot of material consumption. According to the design of the "Ten Billion Light Years", a shot of each turret of the main gun needs to consume nearly one kilogram of hydrogen, plus the consumption of other secondary guns and energy shields, the battleship needs to consume 20 tons of material per minute when it enters the combat state, and the peak data is nearly 50 tons!

Even if the "10 billion light years" has a strong endurance, it can't stand such non-stop consumption, and there will definitely be no place in this world that can provide it with supplies.

"That can only be used as a last resort, unless the mission is close to the end, and you don't have to worry about being besieged by the Human Alliance......"

More than an hour later, Reich's group met with the rest of the vanguard of the Sixth Mobile Force. But they were all a group of soldiers who had lost their weapons, and without the drag of weapons, they ran much faster, but they didn't think about what it meant to lose their weapons in this alien hostile land.

As these soldiers have lost their combat capability, they cannot just ignore it, and the troops continue to move forward while they are divided and collected from these soldiers.

Soon after, they finally joined up with most of the remnants of the Sixth Mobile Force, and the result was just as Chu Xuan expected. There were about 5,000 people left here, and only about 2,000 soldiers were armed and could fight, and the rest were wounded. Or, like the group of deserters I just met, even the weapons have been lost.

After the two units met, the most senior officer present was a major, but unfortunately this major was also seriously wounded, his entire arm was torn off by insects, and he had fallen into a semi-comatose state. As a result, the remaining officers on both sides discussed and decided to hand over the command of the troops to Captain Reich, after all, although his troops were small in number, they were stronger than the other side in terms of morale and combat effectiveness.

As a result, Li Xiaoyi and others became the commanders and non-commissioned officers of the two units, and their military ranks were also promoted from corporal to sergeant, and they participated in the headquarters meeting together.

At the meeting, Lai Qi promoted Chu Xuan, Bawang, Zero, and Wang Xia to corporals, so that they could better command the soldiers to fight, which was good news.

Unfortunately, there is also the bad news that from now on, the first rescue landing ships and bombers will not be able to reach Klendadu until seven hours later, in other words, they will need to stay on this battlefield for another seven hours!

Hearing this news, the vast majority of the officers except the Iron Hand Reich were scolding, and the top brass of the government and the army were all idiots, and this plan was a complete failure and murder!

Looking at the performance of these officers, Li Xiaoyi couldn't help but shake his head in his heart, although the top of the government and the army in this operation was indeed full of mistakes, but it was useless to scold them at this time, and it was even more useless for the current situation, rather than wasting energy like this, it was better to carefully study the next plan of action, otherwise after seven hours, everyone would all become food for insects.

Although Lai Qi was also very angry, he looked at Li Xiaoyi, Zheng Zha, and Chu Xuan, and was very surprised by their attitude as if nothing had happened, and couldn't help asking, "My non-commissioned officers, do you have any proposals for this situation?" ”

Hearing Lai Qi's question, Li Xiaoyi and Zheng Zhan both looked at Chu Xuan, and Chu Xuan immediately said, "The scout has found a hill just now, the top of the mountain is very wide, and the surroundings are very steep, there is only one road to reach the top of the mountain, from the mountain road next to us all the way up, about an hour's journey to the top of the mountain, after arriving there, as long as we guard the passage up the mountain, and then assign some soldiers to deal with the flying insects in the sky, then we are likely to be able to hold on for seven hours." ”

After listening to Chu Xuan's suggestion, several officers led by Reich raised their own questions, mainly why they wanted to march to the top of that mountain, instead of defending on the spot, after getting Chu Xuan's explanation of firepower and preventing the Zerg raid, they immediately issued an order for all to set off, and set off towards the top of the mountain according to Chu Xuan's suggestion.
