Chapter 504: Accident

The long-term battle on the battlefield continues, and it is not only the coalition army that is anxious, but the Zerg army is much more anxious than the coalition army.

Compared with the coalition army, which consumes a large amount of energy to ensure combat effectiveness, the Zerg has been using the biological energy in their bodies to maintain the battle line with difficulty.

Although there were still nearly 100 million Zerg troops in that star field, the Zerg never carried out support operations.

As the coalition expected, the reason why the Zerg could not make up their minds to support was precisely because they were worried that the star field was a trap that the coalition had already laid down, because not long after the arrival of the Zerg reinforcements, they found the second echelon of the coalition forces that had been lurking there for a long time in the nearby area.

The number of this fleet is almost the same as that of the first stage, but the firepower has been increased by several notches, and it can be said that it concentrates all the heavy firepower legions in the expeditionary legion, and it is a very good defensive legion.

Although the Zerg did not know the specific performance of the various types of warships that the coalition fleet was equipped with, just finding such a hidden fleet was enough to slow down the pace of support and carefully observe the movements of the coalition forces.

And just like that, a few days passed. Although the battlefield is full of people coming and going, the battle line is always moving back and forth between the two sides, and there is no intention of tilting towards either side at all.

The Zerg are not stupid, their own troops are seriously depleted, but it is certain that those fleets of the coalition forces will not be very comfortable, and the battlefield is so stalemate, it may only take a little more strength to cause the balance to be unbalanced, thus turning into a one-sided mode.

But even so, the ambushed coalition fleet still had no intention of stepping forward to help, but released reconnaissance planes at a fixed time every day to detect the distribution of enemy forces in the outside world, and everything that happened on the battlefield seemed to be completely meaningless to this coalition army, and it was completely unnoticed.

All of this has to make the Zerg's actions cautious and cautious.

In the past few days, the Zerg have also used this time to carefully probe the nearby area, and have not found any other coalition warships.

This result made the Zerg army feel a lot more at ease, and the five million troops were obviously not for ambush operations, so there was only one purpose left, and that was to contain them.

In other words, the coalition side was also afraid that it would fight with the Zerg army for a long time and fall into the ambush of the Zerg, so they specially arranged a fleet as a response when retreating, and the reason why this fleet was slow was because it was afraid of being entangled with the Zerg for too long, which would make it difficult to leave the battlefield.

Nowadays, this explanation has been accepted by a large number of Zerg commanders, because nowadays, only such an explanation is more reasonable.

At this moment, the latest situation came from the rear camp of the Zerg, a huge fleet had crossed the boundary line of the star field, and continued to attack a series of planet fortresses occupied by the Zerg all the way.

This news has been confirmed, and the Zerg immediately made up their minds to fight, because the main fleet of the coalition has been exposed, and there are only less than 10 million coalition fleets left in front of them.

In fact, from the very beginning, the Zerg's goal was not the main force of the coalition, which meant that Lin Rin's thoughts were just his own conjectures and lack of combat habits of the Zerg, and did not represent any ideas of the Zerg.

The Zerg have always been weak but not strong, and their consistent action is to target the weak links of the coalition forces first, and only after all the subsidiary forces have been eliminated will they take the initiative to fight a decisive battle with the main force. There are no exceptions except for direct attacks when there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides.

In other words, the more the coalition feints behaved like the main force, the more determined they were to attack the first phase first.

Coupled with the relative strength in this area, the Zerg no longer had any reason to give up such a golden opportunity to annihilate the coalition fleet.

As for the "main fleet" that has entered the star field behind them, the Zerg don't want to pay attention to it at all, anyway, there is nothing of value in that star field except for those empty planets that have been transformed, and this star field is also exchanged for the alliance fleet of nearly 10 million, this transaction is definitely not a loss.

As a result, the Zerg army, which had already moved to the border area of the two star fields to ambush, finally moved again.

This time, the Zerg army did not choose to gather in one place and attack collectively, but divided the entire fleet into two camps, the front camp probably had nearly 200 million Zerg troops, and the number of rear camps was even more amazing, the number had reached twice that of the front formation, and at least 400 million troops were waiting solemnly.

And the opponent they faced was only two fleets of five million in size, and it was obvious that this number ratio, no matter how strong the coalition force was, would not have any effect.

In order not to let the coalition force detect the arrival of the Zerg army in advance, they sent the 200 million Zerg in the front row to participate in the battle, which could not only turn the tide of the battle, but also attract the ambushed fleet.

When the two sides enter a state of melee, the subsequent 400 million troops will enter the battlefield and crush the two legions of the coalition with this absolute strength.

————————————————

When the front line of the Zerg entered the monitoring range of the coalition forces, the detection system of the coalition forces immediately locked their positions, and when the number of Zerg was detected, the coalition officers and soldiers who were still rejoicing couldn't laugh.

Originally, the coalition forces thought that the Zerg troops would gradually enter the battlefield one after another, which could not only allow the first echelon as a decoy to have an adaptation process, but also give the third echelon a time to turn around, so that the entire front would not be under too much pressure.

However, the current operation of the Zerg is far from the expectation of the coalition army, and this newly emerged Zerg army with 200 million numbers is beyond the scope of the coalition army.

In the face of such a large Zerg force, the pressure on the coalition forces is very high. Even if you gamble all the power in your hands now, it is not impossible to fight against 200 million Zerg. But after the third echelon fleet went out, the coalition forces could not come up with any reinforcements at all, that is, before the return of the third echelon, everything on the battlefield would depend on them.

If the second echelon is put into battle, then the coalition forces will lose the means to deal with emergencies, and if anything happens, then these coalition fleets that are caught in the melee will be really dangerous.

But if you don't join the battle, the first echelon, which is already suffering heavy losses, will be under unprecedented pressure, and maybe it will be wiped out before the third echelon returns.

"It's going to be hard now!" Zhang Yunfan looked at the latest Zerg army and muttered to himself.
