Chapter 415: The Battle Situation
Since the day of the Zerg invasion, the alliance fleet has been defeated all the way, and one star field after another in the war zone has been captured by the Zerg, and this time, the alliance finally lost their last star field in the war zone, and in this way, the hard work of the human alliance for hundreds of years was all buried.
But the pace of the Zerg never stops the border, when the alliance fleet just retreated to the nearby countries for refuge, the Zerg army followed, the two sides once again started a big battle in the nearby star field, and the various forces that felt the urgency of the situation, under the coordination of the alliance, quickly put aside each other's daily grudges, and invested all their strength in the battle.
Due to the strange space projection force of the Zerg, the alliance did not dare to adopt the method of fixed-point theater defense for stepped defense, and could only choose to engage in sports warfare with the Zerg, and how could the coalition field fleet that lacked the support of fixed fortresses with strong firepower be able to face the massive Zerg army!
In desperation, the coalition forces could only take one blow and leave, taking advantage of the speed advantage, and withdrawing from the battlefield when the Zerg army had not yet formed an encirclement, but this kind of emergency-like fighting style gradually became more and more difficult after more and more Zerg troops were invested in these star fields.
The front-line command post of the Alliance Theater has now moved to the Helis Star Field, which is two star fields away from the original theater, but even so, they still have to sit and plan to evacuate at any time.
Sean has been very distressed recently, firstly, because of the increasingly stalemate of the war situation, and secondly, he sighed that such a once-in-a-century event actually appeared in his own office.
There is no doubt that at the end of this battle, regardless of whether the Terrans succeed or fail, the alliance will lose their original credibility, their army will be compressed, and even the overall command of the Zerg battle may not be guaranteed.
And all this happened in front of him, and the most powerless thing for Sean was that he had no way to deal with these problems except to watch the situation develop.
Although he can still command these small countries around the theater of operations to carry out organized resistance, no matter who can see clearly, relying on these small countries alone, let alone counterattacking, even now, the battle line has already shown signs of collapse, and what he can do is to put batches of newly arrived fleets into this bottomless pit of attrition, so as to maintain the battle line without losing this very humble purpose.
In a week, if the fleets of the major forces are not available within a week, the wartime of these star fields will become irreversible, and even if the fleets of the great powers arrive, they can only keep the battle situation intact, and the Terrans will forever lose control of these star fields.
Just as General Sean was pondering, an area on the starry sky map in front of him suddenly lit up with a red warning sign, and as the warning sign flashed, a red line slowly meandered and stretched out, slowly extending towards other star fields.
Seeing this scene, Sean was suddenly shocked, he knew what the red line represented, it was the logo of the Zerg army, and these winding movements of the Zerg happened to avoid the defensive line he had arranged, making it move all the way unimpeded.
According to their marching speed, it only takes less than a day to completely cross the coalition defense line, and then whether they choose to turn around and attack the flank of the coalition fleet, or directly enter other star fields to open up a new battlefield, they will deal a hard blow to the already crumbling coalition defense line, and under this blow, whether the coalition can stand up will become an unknown.
Sean didn't dare to bet, he knew very well that once the Zerg succeeded, let alone a week, the coalition might not be able to survive even three days.
"Sir!"
A call beside him pulled Sean's thoughts back, Sean turned around, and saw that it was the head of his staff headquarters, Hilke, and immediately asked, "What do you mean by your staff headquarters?" ”
"We roughly deduced it just now......," Hill Ke said with some hesitation: "The best way now is to completely abandon these stalemate battlefields, retreat a star field for defense, exchange space for time, and know the arrival of the main force of the coalition forces!" ”
"Impossible!" Sean immediately refused, shouting a reprimand, "Do you know what this will mean? Not only the war zone, but the Terrans will forever lose control of these star fields, which is an immeasurable loss for our Terrans, and we can't give up at all! ”
"I think when the main force arrives, we will counterattack again and take back these star fields that have been voluntarily abandoned?" Hill Ke persuaded: "Sir, our strength is insufficient now, but with these fleets of small countries nearby, we can no longer hold the battle line, instead of relying on vain attrition, we should take a step back and preserve our strength!" ”
"Don't talk to me about such illusory things!" Sean frowned and waved his hands. "Don't you know how much it will cost us to reclaim a piece of the star field from the Zerg's occupation zone!? Didn't the battle in the Sea Lion Star Zone let you see the situation clearly?! ”
"This ...... But if we persist any longer, the fleets of these star fields may all ......"
"Don't tell me the result now!" Sean directly interrupted Hilco and said directly: "What you and your team have to do now is to find a countermeasure for me, remember!" What I want is a countermeasure to hold the front! ”
"Yes!" Under the direct orders of the commander, Hill could only compromise, and began to coordinate the fleets with the staff of his headquarters.
Sean put his hands on the command platform in front of him, silently looked at the slowly extending red line on the offensive and defensive map in front of him, tilted his head and asked the adjutant beside him: "What is the scale and combat power of this Zerg?" ”
"I don't know the specific scale, but judging from the density and situation when it separated from the Zerg army, the approximate inference given by the General Staff Headquarters is probably more than one million......" The adjutant replied as he flipped through the information in his hand. There is nothing special about the formation of this Zerg army, which can be estimated using the previous conversion formula! ”
Just as the adjutant was about to continue to introduce the situation, Hilke returned again and said, "Sir, based on your opinion, we have made a series of calculations on the current battle situation, and we think that we can extend the defense line of the seventh and ninth sections, and transfer the fleet of the eighth defense line closest to it to resist the invasion of the Zerg......
"Oh~~" Sean perked up, turned his body, continued to look at the offensive and defensive map, and said, "Which part of the defensive fleet of the eighth division is it?" ”
"It's a ...... of three divisions of a small country," Hilco replied immediately, "it's just ...... The eighth segment is now also being attacked by the Zerg, and it is directly allowed to withdraw, causing casualties ......"
"Don't think about that now!" Sean's eyes narrowed slightly, but his spirit was much better than before, his eyes focused on the tangled red and blue lines on the offensive and defensive map, and said: "As long as you can hold this line of defense, it is worth the price!" ”
