Chapter 550: The Might of the Golden Beetle

After the rapid response team landed, it immediately attacked the main gate of the General's Mansion, and the siege tanks on the south bank turned their guns and opened a fast passage in the place where the defensive batteries in the southern area of the General's Mansion were concentrated.

Since the landing site of the special operations team and the rapid reaction team was located on the west bank of the "Akuias" lake, very close to the General's Mansion, and the Protoss transport plane deliberately slowed down and sneaked towards the southeast corner that had just been destroyed by the siege tanks in an ultra-low-altitude flight, when the rapid response team broke through the isolation net, the Protoss transport plane was able to reach the destroyed southeast corner defense line.

Anti-aircraft missiles could not strike targets at a certain distance, and a 150mm twin railgun was used against it.

At this moment, the Protoss transport plane swooped in a whirlwind, and a golden giant worm with a body length of more than 20 meters appeared on the ground. They have fish-scale armor that tightly wraps around their entire body, and their heads are small, like a multi-tentacle insect.

When it appeared on the high-speed runway built around the General's Palace, the operator of the 150mm twin railgun was slightly distracted and failed to give the order to fire at the first time.

Seriously speaking, it doesn't really mean much to fire or not, the 150mm twin railgun is already a medium-sized defensive weapon, which can effectively deal with destroyers and warships of the following types, but its target today is the Protoss transport plane, although it is only more than 40 meters, the plasma shield is still not something it can shatter with one blow, and the golden beetle will not give it a second chance to fire.

"A mechanical peak flew out of the carapace of the parent body, with a blue glow, like a drunken bird, bypassing the ground buildings that were collapsed by siege tanks, and dodging the strafing of the 12.7mm caliber armor-piercing shells of the defense aircraft QÌ people popping up on the ground, drawing a beautiful arc, and drilling directly into the junction between the chamber and the base of the 150mm duplex railgun from top to bottom. There was a flash of white light, followed by a deafening explosion.

The two tracks of the 150mm twin railgun were directly disconnected from the base, and with billowing smoke, there were continuous explosions, and the ground near it was shaking.

The damage to the railgun in the southeast corner attracted the attention of the defense zone command, and many turrets in the depth area adjusted the angle of the muzzle. Trying to lock on to the Protoss transport plane, who knew that the target would drop a second golden beetle and then turn in the air, flying out as fast as possible.

At the same time, one after another mechanical peaks flew out of the golden beetle's body, turning left and right among the ruins, like picky butterflies, ignoring small and medium-sized turrets on the way, specifically looking for 600mm and below caliber railguns, particle beam launchers, small-caliber plasma cannons, and 1000mm class cannon to carry out suicide attacks.

As the gold beetle hides in low-lying areas. Use the automatic enemy seeking system of the mechanical peak to track the target, and then detonate the energy core core to launch a suicide attack, the heavy batteries in the distance cannot lock on to them at all, so they can only stare on the spot, and let the mechanical peak explode them one by one, or cripple them.

Edison also tried to send a special team to deal with them, but when the three "Burning Horses" were bombarded by the mechanical peak, they were blown to pieces of charred metal fragments. The soldiers inside didn't even have the meat left, and he wisely stopped sending large units. Instead, the soldiers were ordered to cooperate with the movable defense aircraft to approach the location of the golden beetle by different routes.

It's a pity that their grenades, grenades, and even RPGs, C4 explosives, etc., are not enough to break through the plasma shield of the golden beetle, not to mention that the big guys are still covered with thick armor, not to mention ordinary weapons, not to mention tickling, at most a breeze blows the face, cool. Refreshing.

Edison? Jin finally couldn't help but pick up the cup, pour the coffee that the assistant accidentally put too much sugar into his mouth, and then put down the empty cup, frowning at the heavy artillery label in the southern area of the General's Mansion on the virtual sand table that was being quickly replaced by the "lost" character.

His expression made people wonder if the cup of coffee candy or milk just now was too bitter. Or maybe it's too astringent.

In fact...... He didn't taste it at all, thinking it was because of the coolness.

Like the thoughts of many of the staff below, he was curious about why those golden beetles could fire in an endless stream without worrying about running out of ammunition, because in just ten minutes, nearly 40 large and small artillery batteries, anti-aircraft missile launchers, and more than 10 vehicles had died under their hands.

According to the analysis of the footage taken by the high-speed camera, the explosives are suicide drones, which are not small, and with the volume of the two golden beetles, removing the external armor, removing the power system, removing the suspension system, and removing the electronic equipment and other modules, it is simply not enough to support their uncontrolled bombardment.

Soon, the front-line fighters sent back a message that made people very speechless.

After a period of observation, they found that the two giant golden beetles were not mobile heavy artillery in the ordinary sense, but a suicide drone mothership, or a land carrier with a suicide drone production line, which was able to devour the metal substances of the surrounding environment, and then processed and assembled into a suicide drone with high intelligence in the internal production line, and then launched it.

Harvesting metals on site? On-site production? Assembled in situ into a suicide drone? In-place projection?

Edison felt like he was listening to a science fiction story, a science fiction story with a lot of fantasy overtones.

What are you kidding, that glittering transport plane ran around the southeast corner of the General's Mansion and threw down two mobile military factories? Those people on the front line are making up stories, right? Also TM is a story that is open to words.

Are they trying to shirk their responsibilities? In fact, there was no need to do this, an armored brigade of the Guard was pressed on the west bank of Lake "Akuias" by 8 crawlers and 2 mobile heavy guns, holding down its head and beating it violently, the main force was almost disabled, and only half of the light vehicles and mechanized soldiers were still barely fighting.

However, the opponent only paid the price of 3 crawlers, or the most elite tactical demolition team received a death order from the superior commander to use multiple portable fusion bombs to carry out a suicide charge, like ordinary guns, artillery, and even vehicle-mounted missiles and laser weapons could not break through the blue shield on their bodies.

Five transport shuttles suddenly crashed into the lake during their flight over the lake, although they didn't know what the cause of the crash was, they wanted to be inseparable from the six gold-armored generals.

Combined with the previous process of the fighter plane's hijacking of the Golden Armored Transport Plane, and the fact that the Golden Beetle can unleash suicide drones for long-range bombing, these combat units with their iconic gold paint are far more threatening than biological weapons.

At the beginning of the ground battle on the planet Ryctor in the Sulu Empire, there were very few types of combat units with gold livery. But what about now?

Not only are there more golden units, but there are also things like biological motherships and stealth warships.

The coffee Edison had just drunk turned into cold sweat oozing out again, and a heavy smell of sweat wafted from his armpits, which could be smelled for eight miles.

In the past, he was able to defeat Lord Lancelot's garrison fleet and army with a thin type of troops, but today, how could he not use only 500 air and space units to destroy the "Mubarak" defender fleet?

Where the hell did that guy come from to get so many powerful weapons? Whether it's a living unit or a golden unit. Even the "Morning Star" and machine gunners, which are at first glance the products of human science and technology, are much higher than the average scientific and technological level of human society.

"Haruko, you say...... Did that kid get some amazing Ipsion inheritance at Na'vi? No...... Wrong...... Na'i had exploded, and it was said that only one Epsilon shuttle had escaped, and the military department guessed that it was most likely that he was piloting the aircraft, so could it be ...... Is he an Ipsilon? Or is there a living Ipsilons helping him? ”

He thought of the information provided by the Thunder Fleet of the Mengya Empire and the Holy Violet Fleet of the Sulu Empire, and thought of the Epsilon ruins above, and where did the Tang Fang rise from, maybe...... Even Nami was blown up by him. Otherwise, how could a planet that was originally good suddenly explode.

In fact, these are all his guesses, such as "Tang Fang is an Ipsi Dragon", which is even more fantastical than what the front-line soldiers reported just now.

The speculation that "there are living Ipsisaurians helping him" is more likely, because the Epsilon must know where there are hidden relics of Ipsilons that have not been discovered by humans, and if it is a large-scale facility similar to the military industrial base, it can naturally improve his military strength and technological level in a short period of time.

There are some things hidden in the information provided by the Mengya Empire, such as the storage of the "Meigar" jump relay station. Otherwise, Edison would have turned speculation into conviction.

The empty cup is already full of coffee. Haruko Fukada tore open the bag of fine sugar and was concentrating on adding sugar to it.

Half a spoonful of sugar - this was the habit of Major General Edison.

In the past three years, she no longer has to use a spoon to measure, and can judge the amount of sugar just by reducing the weight of the sugar bag and the flow rate of the sugar.

It's just that...... This was the second time she had missed, and her snow-white wrist shook. All that sugar slipped into the cup.

The first time she saw those dense army of king insects, she was very scared.

This time it's because of Edison's words, if the guess that "there is a living Ipsilons helping him" is correct, then ...... Who will restrain him after that? If he continues to grow like this, I am afraid that in the near future, the Mengya Empire and the Sulu Empire will become his subordinates.

Is it going to change......

She was stirring the coffee with a spoon when she remembered something very bad. With a flick of his wrist just now, the whole bag of sugar was poured into the cup, and Edison was very sensitive in terms of taste, and he was more picky, and if he put less sugar, he would slap the table and roar like a lion.

She was hesitating whether to pour out the coffee with the excess sugar and brew another cup when Edison picked it up and poured it into his mouth, like a long-thirsty desert traveler.

"Will ...... The general ...... "Haruko wanted to speak and stopped.

Edison put the cup back in its place, looked at her and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”

She was very strange, obviously put so much sugar, and the major general, who has always been very sensitive to sweetness, didn't taste something?

"General, you say...... Could those gold-armored warriors be the Ipsi Dragons? ”

Of course, she wouldn't say nothing, let alone ask, "You didn't taste the coffee just now, right?" "That's the case. A smart woman has always been scheming, and she is no exception, knowing how to divert attention with new topics.

Edison thought for a while and said: "No one has ever seen what the Epsilons look like, your guess is not unreasonable, but I think those gold-armored people should not be Epsilons, because they have no reason to be involved in the war between humans, not to mention that even if there are Epsilons alive in this era, I'm afraid the number is extremely rare, will they fight for a human man?" This is obviously impossible! ”

"And, have you noticed. The gold-painted combat units were not branded with ε patterns, which was completely different from the Epsilon creations...... Of course, it is reasonable to say that one or two things are different, but from individual soldier armor to small fighter jets, to flying machines, and even the golden colossus raging on the space station field. None of the ε marks on their bodies are strange. ”

"That ......" Haruko Fukada's clear and thin eyebrows were raised, and her tone was full of incomprehension.

He continued: "Some of the remnants of the Ipsilons found in the 'Lost Lands' were obviously caused by weapon attacks, which shows that the Ipsisaurians of the 'Lost Lands' have been attacked, either civil strife or ......" Speaking of this, he looked into her eyes and said: "The universe is very large, and the galaxy is just a drop in the ocean, and no one knows about alien races like the Epsilons. Are there any other cosmic civilizations? ”

"General...... You...... You mean? ”

Edison shrugged his shoulders and sighed: "The universe is very big, there are too many things that human beings don't know and can't understand, and no one knows if there are unbelievable things happening on the other side of the distant sea of stars." Those golden-armored warriors may be a new alien race, and for some unknown reason they have sworn allegiance to that kid. It may also be a by-product of biological weapons, or biological weapons are their by-products. It is also possible that the Epsilons have cultivated new life, or that they are a vassal civilization that has been dispatched by him on the orders of an Epsilon...... What the real situation is, I'm afraid only the kid surnamed Tang knows. ”

The woman said, "It's a pity that he is our enemy,"

"It's a pity......

Suddenly, the intelligence officer in front interrupted the conversation between the two. said: "General, the unmanned tactical platform is ready, and the 'Bright Trial' will be activated in 1 minute. ”

"Hmm." Edison nodded, turning his attention back to the frontline.

Almost at the same moment, a commando of vulture chariots, fire chariots, predators, zealots, and machine gunners stormed the southern sector of the General's Mansion. Make a final charge on the defensive position of another mechanized infantry brigade belonging to the guard unit, relying on small batteries and fixed-point defense machines.

In this deep defensive line, the ground is littered with large and small craters and building debris, flames dotted with scrapped locomotives and trenches, and occasionally a few explosions are heard, spraying large clouds of gunpowder smoke into the cloudy sky.

Soldiers wearing the "Wind Silver Wolf" power armor fell sideways on both sides of the bunker and trench, and the iron sheet covering the surface of the body was torn open one by one, and blood was dripping from the inside. In addition, one or two puppy corpses can occasionally be seen on the battlefield, most of which are in a fragmented state, and at first glance they are destroyed by heavy weapons.

On the last few positions in the hinterland of the southern district, more than 100 puppies leaped like flying, flickering in the ruins of buildings and bunkers of varying heights, tearing a fixed-point defense machine into metal fragments all over the ground, and the combat effectiveness of the puppy after upgrading the "adrenaline" has grown by leaps and bounds, light vehicles such as the "Mustang" chariot, using their gliding ability to jump to the roof of the vehicle, and their forelimbs are planed indiscriminately, and the top armor of the chariot made of super-strength alloys is like tattered window paper that has been twisted by scissors, and has been kicked and collapsed by the puppy with its thick hind limbs. Then he jumped into the cabin, and a series of screams ensued.

Some chariots' armor is cut through the inside by claws, and blood rains down on the dried-out ground around them, creating a bewitching glow with the flames.

As long as they are not stupid to stand in place as a live target, using the meat wings under the ribs to glide and maneuver, supplemented by the staggered terrain and cover, whether it is the "Mustang" tank, the "Jackal" tank, or even the high-speed small-caliber electromagnetic battery deployed in front of the position, it is difficult to pose a fatal threat to them.

Even if some puppies are injured during the charge, as long as their health is reduced to a certain level, they will dig a hole in the ground and hide in it to wait for the injury to recover.

After upgrading the "adrenaline", they truly became infantry killers, like a blood-colored tornado in the complex terrain environment, bringing death and destruction to the mechanized infantry and small defenses of the "Arumegaicha" guard.

The commander of the infantry brigade hated the eight siege tanks on the south bank of the lake "Aquias", and if it weren't for their long-range firepower output and the precise killing of various howitzer batteries near the defensive line, how could these sturdy big dogs rush into the hinterland of the defensive line so easily.

If the defensive line is lost, more than 70% of the entire southern area of the General's Mansion will be completely occupied by the other side.

He had repeatedly asked the headquarters to send combat aircraft to blow up the several siege tanks hiding behind the high ground and long-range shelling on the south bank of the "Akuias" lake, however, under the protection of Viking fighters and two Nighthawks, whether it was manned aircraft, unmanned attack aircraft, or high-power missiles, it was simply difficult to approach, and only some small missiles and long-range howitzers could cross the battlefield and reach the rear of the high ground.

The arrival of the ground army units of the human and god clans was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the defense line of the main gate of the southern area completely collapsed, and the infantry brigade began to retreat to the rear under the cover of 1200mm cannons and large-caliber rapid-fire howitzers in the core area of the general's mansion.

The three vehicles, the Chariot of Flame, the Vulture Chariot, and the Predator, clung to their butts and chased after them. (To be continued......) R1292
