Chapter 109: The Catastrophe Ten Years Ago (5)
The bug attack officially begins at 13:43 Federal Time.
As the elder staff officer said, the current Planetary One base has completely shifted to the other side of the planet, and it is simply unable to form an effective cooperation with the main force.
But the young staff officer was indeed right, the strength of the worm at this time was far greater than the strength when the encirclement was just completed.
The GS fleet compresses the defense line as much as possible to increase the unit fire density, however, wave after wave of bugs constantly storm the fleet's defense line, and even the strongest fleet cannot fully save itself.
"At 14:50, the bugs broke through the fleet's outer defense circle for the first time, and ten destroyers were seriously injured or damaged."
"At 15:30, the first Haoyue-class cruiser, the Jinchang, was blown up by a shock bug and the main propulsion engine was damaged, the battleship lost control, and the crew abandoned and blew up the cruiser."
"At 15:48, the tenth Eritan died under the strike of the trillion-megawatt beam cannon of the GS Sun-class battleship."
"At 16:32, the fifth cruiser, the Tianshui, was blown into countless pieces under the siege of more than 20 detonators, and none of the ships survived."
"At 17:58, Planetary Base One reappeared in front of the main fleet, but all the commanders saw was a pile of broken scrap copper and iron, and there was no sign of life at all."
"At 18:46, the last destroyer was destroyed, and the fleet was forced to begin trying to break through."
"At 19:11, the last cruiser, the Wuwei, was too badly damaged, and the captain, after withdrawing all the crew, crashed into the nearest Eritan with his own microbrain."
With its powerful shield system and solid hull armor, the GS held out until the end, but the originally majestic and mighty Sun-class battleship was like a burning, charred wooden stick at this time.
Most of the beam batteries on the battleship have been destroyed, the fighter group has long since been wiped out, the hull surface is full of hollows blown out by stun blast insects, and it is not uncommon to see charred and exposed wires and circuit boards.
Inside the bridge, the staff officers were in full swing to load the ship's bulkheads with sandbags and the like, and everyone was as armed as they could, ready to meet the possible army of scorpions.
No one was stunned, no one was alarmed, and the more they were on the verge of death, the more everyone could accept this fact.
Xie Si turned on the stereo, and melodious soft music came from the speakers, and he returned to his seat and poured himself a glass of whiskey.
The detonators continued to crash into the battleship, and the shock wave from the explosion continued to wash over the surface of the ship, making the huge battleship vibrate slightly from time to time, which was infinitely magnified by the horizontal plane of the whiskey that was lying flat, but it couldn't stop beating.
"Old Gao, come, let's have a drink, this thing was given to me by the speaker when I just woke up, and it tastes good." Xie Si smiled and filled another wine glass and handed it to the chief of staff.
The chief of staff frowned slightly, he was usually not allowed to drink alcohol as the chief of staff, but since the battle had already reached this point, it shouldn't matter if he drank a little.
A glass of wine went straight to his stomach, and the strong spicy spicy went straight to his brain, so that he couldn't help coughing heavily, and his cheeks, which were still white, were also drunk with the liquor.
"Hahaha, for people like you who can't drink, whiskey should be added to the ice before it tastes better, you feel a little bit like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit."
"Boom!"
As Xie Si laughed, a stun worm slammed into the hull, tearing open the battleship's tattered outer armor and burrowing into the battleship's belly, causing a powerful explosion in the middle of the battleship.
The powerful energy generated by the explosion directly killed hundreds of crew members on the spot, and the shock wave pushed all the way flat, completely blowing the keel into two pieces.
The massive battleship split in half in half, billowing smoke billowed from the cracked spot, countless corpses and debris blown into the icy void by the air current.
"Ninth squadron, lost contact."
"Hangars 3 and 4 are on fire, and they are ready to drain the air immediately."
"The bugs are attacking our last beam battery, please send troops to support quickly, please send troops to support quickly!"
"Sir, there are too many bugs, we can't stand it anymore, they're about to break through our defenses!"
Xie Si sat on the captain's chair and quietly listened to all the communication channels that Liu Che had opened, the screams, the panicked roars, and even the muttering of himself because he was afraid all came to his ears, and he didn't say a word, just drank cup after glass for himself.
The bottles on the ground were tumbling around, and everyone on the bridge was shouted out, leaving only the Chief of Staff sitting beside him, sharing the rest of the whiskey with him.
"Old Gao, I didn't order the fleet to use the wormhole to rush out in time, I guess you should be very unhappy." Xie Si shook the last bottle of wine and poured the rest into the chief of staff's glass.
"Hmph, what's the use of being angry, you are the commander of the fleet, even if you let us carry out a suicide attack, we have to listen to you." The chief of staff shook his drunken head and drank the last glass of wine.
Xie Si looked at the Chief of Staff with satisfaction, who was not a good drinker, and was now able to drink a whole glass of whiskey freely.
"Lao Gao, my senior chief of staff, we have done enough, we can hold back so many bugs, presumably the front line can also relieve a lot of pressure, right? This is our most glorious moment as soldiers. Chess stood up and minimized the color of the windows, the blinding stellar light shining into the bridge, stabbing both of them from opening their eyes.
"After we die, our deeds will be passed on to future generations, our honor will be remembered by future generations, and we will be immortalized in human history!" The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he pointed his empty glass towards the star, and the light refracted formed a rainbow-like glow.
However, the Chief of Staff had no chance to hear Xie Si's impassioned speech, and a huge tail spike plunged straight into his chest, killing him in an instant with a deadly toxin.
Xie Si slowly turned around, picked up a bottle of wine from the ground in front of many scorpions, and poured the remaining whiskey into the glass without hurry.
"Good wine is good wine, it's a pity, there is only half a glass left," Xie Si stared at the wine glass in his hand with drunken eyes, and raised the wine glass slightly towards the scorpions.
"Come, you and me, drink this cup together." Xie Si drank the wine in the glass, and with a hard flick of his left arm, the glass flew out with the force, turning into countless starlights on the wall.
Xie Si spread his arms, revealing his chest, and in his right hand, he held a deadly trigger. His face was already incomparably distorted by madness.
"Come on! Bugs, look at what Lao Tzu teaches you! ”
Angel System Alpha Planetary Base General Command of Combat Operations
At this time, the generals were forming a circle with sad faces, and less than two days after the start of the battle, the news that the attack on the entire front was blocked was sent to the headquarters from the various combat units, and only Xie Si's GS fleet was not hindered in any way, and was still advancing.
The generals wanted to inform the GS fleet and order them to retreat to the position before the battle was launched, but this idea was severely suppressed by the Speaker, who even asked the GS fleet to take pictures of their position and the surrounding scenery, and make it public, so as to reflect the great results of the battle.
"Chief, the GS and QH fleets lost contact with us at 9:32 a.m. today, and our reconnaissance ships have been unable to use wormholes to reach where these two fleets are located. The reserves behind the GS fleet were fiercely attacked by bugs and were forced to withdraw to their original positions. ”
The news from the microbrain was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and the generals looked at each other for a while, even the most outstanding and rational generals were dizzy for a short time.
"Lao Kang, what should I do? Shall I use my Third Front to rescue them? After several minutes of silence, General Lei Zhenhua was finally the first to speak.
"How to save it? Now the front of the bug can be broken through with just your four provincial fleets? Xie Si and they have long been behind enemy lines, and even if you find them with the Third Front, you won't be able to bring them back. Kangxi Liang scratched Bai Huahua's head irritably, "Besides, your fleet is too far away from Xie Si and them, and it is really too far to quench their thirst." In this way, Yingzheng. ”
"Here!" A small blue figure appeared on Kang Kang Liang's right hand.
"Which fleets are closest to the GS fleet?"
"The two fleets of ZJ and FJ on the Z axis, as well as the fleets of country Y and country F of the O alliance, but most of these fleets are seriously damaged, and I am afraid that they will not be able to undertake rescue missions. In addition, the reconnaissance ship that had just received contact from the GS fleet said that it wanted to speed up the JS and AH fleets to support, which was the last position recorded by the GS fleet. ”
Kangxi Liang took the information and frowned slightly: "Has the GS fleet arrived near the Feng Mars system?" But JS and AH fleets have been transferred to other places, and there is no way to support them. ”
In desperation, Kangxi Liang could only look at Marshal Taylor, who was sitting on the side without saying a word: "Marshal, do you still have reserves?" If you can put together eight provincial fleets, you should be able to break through the defense line of the bugs. ”
Taylor put down the cigarette in his hand, he didn't speak, just silently put a report in front of Kangxi Liang.
"What? The Allied fleet was under heavy attack, the first line of defense had been completely breached, and the fleet was forced to withdraw to the second line of defense! Kangxi Liang stood up abruptly and stared at the report in his hand in disbelief.
"I just got the news that I have ordered the fleet to shrink on all fronts and abandon the weakly defended galaxy. As for the Speaker, I just skipped it. Taylor stuck the cigarette into the ashtray hard, "This time the bugs obviously set a pit for us, Lei Zhenhua is right, those space centipedes instantly put a lot of troops into this middle ground, the scale is far beyond our imagination, I suggest that you also shrink all your forces immediately, otherwise, there may be more than these two provincial fleets surrounded." ”
Kangxi Liang pinched the sweat in his palms, and pressed his temples tightly with his left hand: "No, we can't leave these two provincial fleets, tens of thousands of lives, we must not just give up." ”
