Chapter 468: Space is squeezing, survival is difficult

December 28th, for the people of the Federation, these last few days have really been like a year.

The global war became more and more intense, and in the early morning of this day, braving the drizzle, the defense of Kunming began.

In the front line, as far as the eye can see, monsters of all sizes are like army ants migrating, overwhelmingly coming through the jungle and wilderness, straight to the city.

About ten minutes later, thousands of Harrier aircraft appeared in the sky.

They were all dropped from low-altitude orbits, earlier than the monsters launched their all-out assault.

These aircraft were like horizontal bombing by strategic bombers, dropping a large number of miniature hydrogen bombs downward.

It's like a hot air balloon race, and balls of light rise from the ground, tearing the waves of monsters to pieces.

In total, more than 10,000 miniature hydrogen bombs were dropped, and the vast area was washed by the power of thermonuclear destruction, causing an audio-visual effect as if the land had been boiled.

The Federation of Commonwealth naturally saw this operation, and they admitted that the outer city-states had indeed entered the level of regularization in the application of nuclear weapons, which meant higher controllability.

In fact, this is a variant application of controlled nuclear fusion miniaturization. All armors are equipped with energy equipment with similar technology, otherwise the replacement of high-energy batteries for 20 million machinery alone is a big project.

As soon as the storm of destruction fell to its peak, the warframes flew low and entered the battlefield.

This is a support force specially sent by Xu Changqing, and a total of 10,000 battle armors were airdropped into the field.

The Federation's mecha suit team only rushed into the battlefield after another twenty minutes, and they fought very conservatively.

This is understandable, the soldiers of alien creatures are not so easy to die, Xu Changqing dared to let the battle armor jump into the monster pile, mainly to take advantage of the illness, and after a little delay, the situation became different again.

It's like the Federation GIs entering the arena and seeing a super feast, those wounded and smoking monsters, munching on the corpses of their half-cooked kind, and the injuries on their bodies are quickly repaired......

This is one of the points where the combat power of alien creatures is difficult to fight, and from the perspective of the team, it is difficult for any other kind of to inflict fatal damage on them except for the war of annihilation.

And the alien creatures are constantly summing up experience and adjusting the characteristics of their soldiers.

Like areas where mecha suits are deployed more, the monster structure is also very good at sports warfare, and the tactical aspect is also a squad action, and it will not be piled up.

As a result, it would be difficult for the mech suit team to penetrate as deeply as they did at the beginning, and then direct space-based weapons or other ultra-long-range weapons to strike at heavily assembled monsters.

Although the federal president has tried their best to strengthen the emergency production of mecha suits, in the face of global invasion, production is still stretched.

And after the equipment is issued, it is not immediately possible to form an army. Mecha suit warriors are also considered a kind of technical troops, and if they want to give full play to the performance of their equipment, they need to participate in a total training session of no less than 100 hours. That is, a two-week training, the tight point can be reduced to a week, but that is cramming, and the effect is not very good. After all, there is a limit to how much people can remember every day.

As a result of various objective factors, until now, the Federation has only reluctantly established 30 training bases. Compared with the gap in demand, the gap is too much, and the troops have been stretched, and the tactics are not atmospheric.

The only battle in the Federation to date in which the mech suit was the main battle was the Battle of Washington, which was launched on Christmas Eve.

The defense was successful, the counterattack effect was average, the execution and coordination ability of the troops were poor, unlike the armor troops of the outer city-states, which could shout to the end with one voice, and had a brain computer to process a large amount of information in real time and issue centurion-level action orders.

Of course, there are also differences in the combat capabilities of the armor troops.

The strongest is the troops of the Earth Cultists, who carry out orders without compromise, and are decisive and brave.

The worst are the commanders who came from the line of fire. They are not cowardly, but constantly questioning instructions. This is normal, but it is really a sticking point.

This kind of thing happened on all fronts of the Southeast Bureau: the commander who was on the line of fire, known as the free officer, did not faithfully carry out the order, but did it according to his own ideas, and the final result looked good.

So I feel that the brain computer is a machine after all, and the thinking is rigid, and many times it is not as good as the human who can creatively complete the task.

This is actually a partial generalization. Xu Changqing has never denied the superiority of human intelligence. Otherwise, he would not have come up with a unique brain computer system, instead of climbing in the direction of photons and quantum.

As far as the facts are concerned, first of all, the brain computer calculates the overall income, and even if 10,000 officers and soldiers are killed on the spot, there is absolutely a reason to do so.

Not to mention the grassroots commanders, even the commanders of the 10,000-person regiment, they can't look at the problem from a sufficiently macro perspective. But brain computing can, and has been doing it.

Secondly, there is more than one path to victory, and the commander's tactical results are good, which does not mean that the plan given by the brain computer is bad.

Sometimes the result of failure is not the same as blind command, but a series of failures to faithfully execute orders, resulting in the overall plan being constantly distorted, and finally becoming a low-yield or simply loss-making business.

This is also the reason why the army always emphasizes discipline and finally carries out orders. It is better to be stupid because of the stupidity of the senior commander, and the incompetence of one general to kill the three armies, than to see the situation of going down and doing things on their own.

The former can immediately solve the problem with a wise commander, and the latter is actually a half-collapsed rabble, and they can't strictly implement orders, so what kind of big battle plan is there? Pushing down layer by layer, if there are two or three thorns in the squad that do not cooperate, then does the squad still have combat efficiency?

And Xu Changqing was harsh in this regard, because he knew very well that he was not good at doing government affairs, and he didn't have the time to be a lubricant between commanders.

Then use a mechanical and tough execution to implement each combat plan, and at the same time, the soldiers are also handled by AI who does not need to worry about execution.

Therefore, the armies of the outer city-states are strong. It is not how strong Xu Changqing's command ability is, but it effectively solves the internal attrition. The kilowatt army is also like an arm's arm.

There is a technological level here that the Federation and even the Republic cannot imitate, and that is communication.

Except for the outer city-states with quantum networks, no one can communicate without hindrance at all times.

Even alien creatures are also plagued by energy obscuration, and EMP dispersion. This has a serious impact on the immediate interaction between commanders and front-line combat units.

Commanders' orders are not transmitted in a timely manner, and the response of the front-line troops is not timely, often in the execution of inertial orders. For example, the previous moment was the advance order, and this moment should actually be turned in, but due to communication obstacles, the front-line troops are still carrying out the advance order of the previous moment by inertia, and they crash headlong into the enemy's superior corps......

This is how the troops of alien creatures often die.

In the face of the large corps of battleshell troops, they also tried to redeem their forces through corps combat.

Because only in this way can we rely on more quantities to exchange out. Otherwise, they will be crushed by the already stronger armor troops with superior forces, and the result will be blood. Thousands of deaths can't be replaced by the other party's armor and scrapped, such a battle loss is really impossible to fight, and the alien creatures can't afford to send food like this even if they eat up the earth.

It's a pity that every time I want to engage in corps-level battles, I am targeted and destroyed by foreign city-states in various ways. And the last few big battles with names have all gathered large forces to complete the duel on the basis of no cost, and in the process of assembly, at least one-third of them have been wiped out by space-based weapons and the like.

The alien creatures hate this more now, just as Iraq's million-strong army hated the multinational force's air force. If you dare to pile up and let me find out, then there will be fun, and it will definitely be one or several shots. It was obviously the side with superior forces, but it couldn't play it, and a small group of people was superior to their opponents in terms of quantity and quality, and first destroyed the heavy weapons, and then grabbed the hammer.

Alien creatures do have heavy weapons, and the fact that they can create a behemoth like the Devourer shows that there is no shortage of platforms for carrying and launching heavy weapons. Then there are the hot wire guns, howitzers, cannons, all of which are made possible by specialized organs.

In this regard, the alien creatures can be regarded as opening the eyes of human beings, including Xu Changqing. Relying on the tendon stretching of the principle of monkey bands, the projectile is projectile projection effect of electromagnetic railgun, do you say it is powerful?

It's a pity that the alien air force can't do it.

The main reason why the Air Force is not good is because the atmosphere, whether it is a low-altitude orbit or a high-altitude orbit, is firmly controlled by the human side.

The alien creatures also tried to get their giant floating body into the sky, but the strip-shaped giant known as fat bread didn't last long in the air before it was broken into a sieve and crashed.

This is a more awesome orbital control than the air supremacy of the past, and most of the unsatisfactory alien creatures are caused by this threat from overhead.

The Xenomorphs have also produced a weapon that can be described as an intercontinental cannon, striking directly at targets in orbit from the ground. It does have some effect, but every time the human side finds one, they stuff a small-yield nuclear bomb into it, and after trying it twice, the alien creature doesn't engage in this kind of money-losing business anymore.

The human side speculates that there is a possibility that the alien creatures are holding back their big moves, and that time this weapon that can hit satellites will not be one or two, but a group of artillery, even if it is quickly cleaned up, the projectiles delivered are enough to cause serious damage to large facilities such as starports.

This also made the Federation realize that his days on the home planet were really short, and he had disagreements with Xu Changqing on a new round of space defense issues, and he never refused to let go of his compromise, and the fundamental reason was here.

The K3 campaign made the Federation grin in pain, and they refused to put the rest of their combat power into it.

Recently, the federal president and his staff team, as well as the upstarts who replaced the old predators, have been holding small meetings at the conference. The core of the discussion is how to maintain the vitality of the Federation to the greatest extent.

On the afternoon of the 27th, the Kwa'e also set off towards the alien domain. What is more interesting is that due to the lack of habitation cabins, the Federation directly dismantled several sections of the Starport's inherent similar facilities on top.

Finding out that this trick worked, the Thor was ready to do the same.

In the words of a Federation spokesman: "It's better to use it than to be destroyed by alien creatures, and the amount of ground delivery has dropped dramatically anyway." ”

One of the reasons for the big drop is that the starport side is already overcrowded, and the other is that the shuttle belonging to the Federation has been almost destroyed by alien creatures.

And this data is undoubtedly the most sensitive to the federal public, and the traffic is obviously low, which means that the possibility of their turn is becoming more and more slim, so the reason for obeying official orders is rapidly decreasing.

Everyone has an account in their hearts, and when they see that the situation is like this, a considerable number of pragmatic people will not buy the federal account.

And the loss of the last bit of trust of a large number of people has also led to the rapid bankruptcy of the official credit of the federal government.

The Federation itself is aware of this, and after pinching his fingers, he finds that there is no need to be sloppy anymore, and it can be done more explicitly.

Although the lucky lottery to get the refuge ticket is still going on, the Federation has begun to play two sets of standards more vigorously, and this set of things is naturally important behind the scenes.

The high-sounding saying is that comrades who can still unite and are willing to unite.

In fact, power and resources are grasped at the same time. Valuable resources, such as scarce metals and nuclear fuel, are dominated by military power.

Those who had been promised to withdraw after three battles were promised by the upper peak, but they did not get the promise to be fulfilled. The ones who were really removed were those officers and soldiers who were red-eyed and had no intention of leaving the earth alive.

Dawn suddenly appeared, with vehicles and orders arriving at the same time, and many of them even picking people up from the battlefield.

"The Federation needs you!"

In just one sentence, plus a condition that people can't refuse: you and your immediate family are gone.

This is part of the passengers that the Federation has arranged for the Thor and Hercules.

According to the calculations of the Federation's high-level leaders, in the near future, the Federation will whip the asteroid belt with a whip kick, completely kick the asteroid belt people to their knees and beg for mercy, and then occupy the magpie's nest.

The core area is Ganymede, as well as other moons of Jupiter. The space stations in the asteroid belt are pushed to the orbit of Jupiter through the high-power external engine propulsion technology of the outer city-states, including the six major stars such as Ceres.

And in order to accomplish this plan, the federation as a whole needs to have sufficient weight, including population, force, and resources.

Therefore, the Thor was ready to be half manned and half loaded. Hercules, half lucky people, half federal dependents. Officials, officers, sergeants, and those who don't have big soldiers, they can be recruited when they need cannon fodder.

In order to accomplish this big plan, the Federation is constantly making adjustments, big and small moves.

So now the Federation has no intention of fighting.

Reflected in the specific situation, the world map unfolded, and the erosion of the battle situation was already shocking.

It can be said that there are only three lines of defense in the world, one is the Western European defense line from Calais in France to Amsterdam in the Netherlands, the east coast defense line of the United States from Portland to Rover, and the southeast defense line of the Celestial Empire from Shanghai to Hong Kong. In the rest of the world, the alien creatures are already driving straight in.

The land and islands south of the equator, except for a few areas, are still holding the last resistance of the isolated city, and the rest have all fallen.

This means that Australia, Africa's heartland, south of Central Africa, and four-fifths of South America have all fallen.

In the northern hemisphere, most of the islands and peninsulas have also fallen.

In this cold season, the north of the 20th parallel does not need to be considered, and without the premise of facilities and resources, it is not suitable for a large number of refugees to take refuge.

If you strip away the desert and other terrain, it becomes clear how much land is still preserved by humans. According to the calculations of the think tank, if it drags on for another week at most, the second round of death peaks will come.

And when this death peak passes, the number of humans on Earth will drop below 5 billion.

These deduction data are also the reason why the Federation refused to allow Xu Changqing not to let a ship of alien creatures enter the earth, and it will all be rotten like that when the time comes, do you still care about the small-scale convergence between alien creatures?

As it turned out, it was a turning point. The Federation, and indeed humanity, have paid the price for this choice......
