Chapter 045: The Zerg's First Victory

"Retreat, the mothership retreats for the time being." Vatonev gave the order a little embarrassed, obviously, now is actually the moment of life and death of the mothership, once the fungus blanket pours into the inside of the mothership, I am afraid that the function of the entire mothership will be affected.

At that time, it will not be a question of whether to withdraw or not, but whether the mothership can be returned.

Everyone now doubted that the sealed door on the deck would be able to stop the spread of the fungus blanket.

They had to get this done in the rear.

Otherwise, once the fungus blanket has taken care of their basic combat deck and then spread to other parts, things will be really big deal.

And even if they return to their home planet, there is no way that this mothership made with the power of the planet will land - if this fungus blanket really accidentally lands on the home planet to multiply, who can afford this sin?

They can only use space as a barrier and constantly use transport planes to transport various fuels to carry out inactivation treatment.

It's a pity that Lieutenant General Vatonev has a rare background, huge power, and sufficient command level and ability, and he can be promoted to a five-star general after this battle, but in the war with the Zerg, one is not handled well, and I am afraid that he will be criticized at a meeting when he goes back this time, and as for the five-star general, it is even more hopeless.

It's a complete failure.

The officers and men at the lower levels have relatives and share the same hatred for the enemy.

But in reality, there is still a consensus among senior military officers that the situation is actually better than ever.

In this regard, the newly taken over Major General Erickson made a special speech that encouraged the whole army.

At the airfield, in the maintenance plant, in the cafeteria, in the damage control room, countless human officers and soldiers sat in their seats and watched the emaciated hook-nosed Major General Erikson on the screen in silence.

This major general is in his fifties, even a few years older than the departed Vatonev, the top of his head is slightly convex, his hairline has almost crossed his ears, he is dressed in a major general's suit, with a hooked nose and a pair of eagle eyes, which is quite hawkish.

"Someone said that we were defeated by bugs?"

"Someone said that our base was bulldozed by bugs?"

"Someone said that our mothership was driven home by bugs?"

"Shit!"

It was rare for a high-ranking major general to be rude, but it lifted the spirits of all the lower-ranking officers, and their attention was immediately focused.

"This group of cosmic locusts, no, the cosmic wolf pack, is the greatest enemy that our human race has never seen."

His words made all the officers nod for a while, affirming the strength of the enemy is to affirm their own exploits and results, otherwise the enemy is vulnerable, what credit do you have? Who wouldn't bully the natives.

"They are wreaking havoc in the universe, and it's us! Drive them out of the universe and into the burrow! It's us! Countless planets have been rescued from their hands! It's us! Destroy the locusts in this universe, so that other human beings can stay on the home planet with peace of mind and grow up happily! ”

He said impassionedly and loudly.

Every time he said "it's us", everyone in the entire fleet shouted yes! By the time the last sentence ended, the morale of the entire fleet had reached its peak, and everyone cheered, applauded, and whistled.

These cheers are not only dedicated to Major General Erickson, but also to their comrades-in-arms, to their sacrificed comrades, to their own applause!

God knows how much effort they put in, fighting alone outside the universe, for their own families, their own country can be safe and peaceful?

"Now, the Cosmic Zerg has become a Cave Zerg! We can't hold their heads up! We're on the offensive all the time! His words lifted the morale of the entire fleet.

Yes, we're on the offensive! Why be so depressed?

It is normal for an offensive to be frustrated, especially in the military, and there is even a tenfold encirclement of this kind of operation.

What's more, the insects do exceed humans quite a lot in terms of the number of ground troops, and humans attack like this, all relying on their own ships and artillery and technical superiority, what can it be considered to be frustrated back by the Zerg?

The Zerg do not rise to the sky to fight them in space for a day, they occupy space power for a day, and this kind of thing that is as important as air supremacy in space warfare is enough to ensure that mankind will always have a safe rear.

Humans can fail 10,000 times, but as long as space is in hand, humans can afford to fail 10,000 times.

And even if the bug succeeds 10,000 times, as long as it fails once, just like last time, the Zerg's brain worm will be caught and become the trophies of the Terrans.

In a very sad and indignant sentence, that is: behind us is the king worm, there is no way to retreat, now we should sacrifice ourselves for the country!

This concept echoed in the minds of all the officers, and their spirits were more and more uplifted.

"What if the mothership has already returned to port." Erikson looked up, revealing the sharp nose and eyes under the brim of his hat.

"Victory will belong to the Empire!" He raised his hand and shouted loudly.

"Long live the Empire!"

All the humans stood up, raised their arms, and cheered in unison, "Long live the Empire!" ”

In the entire human fleet, the decadent atmosphere of the mothership departure was swept away, and all that was left was the enthusiastic and upward officers.

However, even so, the offensive ability of the human race has suffered a great setback all of a sudden, and the base established last time was completely dismantled by the Zerg, so that they have neither the building materials in their hands, nor the ability to launch another large-scale attack on the Zerg.

Originally, after those hell paratroopers explored the way, the Terrans should have sent more than 100,000 troops to attack the tunnel, clean up the Zerg in the tunnel, and then slowly establish logistics input, so that they would not face off against the Zerg in the open wilderness, but in the hole where the Zerg could not spread.

It's a bit of a madness, but it's tactically correct.

And now, such a strategic goal was interrupted by the fungus blanket, and the Terran offensive was cut in half at once, giving the Zerg a precious opportunity.

When the king worm received the news, it was ridiculous.

Unexpectedly, the thing that the Zerg needed most - time was snatched up by the inconspicuous fungus blanket it created.

It couldn't help but have a sneer on its face.

Humans do feel that the strategic initiative is in their hands, but now that they are not pressing step by step, the next time they see their mothership, I'm afraid the Zerg will not be so simple!
