1390 Half-Drop Strike
This is indeed possible, but do aliens think too highly of themselves and underestimate Mars?
In order to avoid the super cannon, the aliens chose the landing site over the equator, which is indeed a good place for landing, but it also creates many difficulties for subsequent operations.
Mars is not a tiny Ceres, the distance from the equator to the poles is more than 5,000 kilometers in a straight line, and the possibility of aliens going directly to the poles after landing is infinitely close to zero, unless they deliberately seek death.
The Sky Ladder has disabled the alien fleet and firmly held the air supremacy in the hands of humans, and any enemy who dares to march on the surface of Mars will be ruthlessly attacked from the sky.
The only option for the aliens is to dig a hole in the spot, build a temporary base first, and then rely on Martian resources to compete with humans for Mars.
But this is also not a good idea, don't look at the fact that aliens can build so many bases in the same asteroid belt as the barren land, but it is based on the fact that there is no shortage of water in the asteroid belt, and there is no alien base without water.
Aliens have never landed on Mars, and there is no material basis here, let alone the distribution of water veins here.
Is there a shortage of water on Mars? In fact, there is no shortage at all, and studies have found that if the polar ice caps of Mars are completely melted, the water produced could completely cover Mars.
Moreover, the frozen water veins are not concentrated at the poles, but from the poles, extending from the polar regions to about 60 degrees latitude, which is still far from the equator where the aliens landed, and it is not so easy for the aliens to think about it.
As for whether there is water at the equator, it is really hard to say, because the maximum annual temperature of the Martian equator can reach more than 20 degrees above zero, and even if there is water, it only exists in the deep underground.
In other words, it is easy to dig a hole and difficult to gain a foothold, and whether the alien fleet that lands on Mars can gain a foothold depends entirely on whether the landing zone can find water.
Either way, landing on Mars is a terrible failure.
The Ladder was not accustomed to aliens at all, and did not hesitate to fire at the landing enemy, and the first target that the Ladder locked on was the alien warship that landed.
With the power of the super cannon, even the earth's atmosphere can be easily penetrated, and the density of the Martian atmosphere is only one percent of that of the earth.
The beam hit the target, and the enemy ship had no resistance, quickly vaporized and disappeared, carrying and killing many insect machines.
Witnessing this scene, the alien fleet exploded on the spot, and the remaining enemy ships were divided into two waves again, one wave of enemy ships turned around and left, and some insect planes broke away from the battleship as they went; Another wave rushed towards Mars without hesitation, obviously trying to cover the alien warships in front.
How could the Ladder be confused by such a simple trick? Still at the inherent rhythm, fire was fired at the landed enemy ships.
After losing several battleships in succession, the aliens can no longer take care of so much, all the landing battleships are full of insects, at the beginning, the human side thought that it was a worm machine, but everyone immediately found out that the situation was wrong, what kind of insect machine is it, it is countless enemy soldiers who vibrating their wings!
Many people did not remember until this time that the servants could fly.
The servants cloned by the Northern Capital can also fly, but the servants are controlled by the chip, and the flight control program of the chip is not particularly perfect, and the flight speed and sensitivity of the servants are worse than those of the enemy soldiers.
Fortunately, the task of the defenders is only to defend, and there are no requirements for mobility, so it doesn't matter if you don't fly well.
Enemy soldiers don't fly alone, many enemy soldiers carry things, and a few enemy soldiers work together to carry giant insects down.
These are quite normal, but what is surprising is that there are several giant insects swinging and circling down Egypt, their size is either fat or heavy, so small wings can make them fly, it is a miracle!
The alien airborne scene is almost a demon dancing, compared to the aliens, the Marine Corps' orbital airborne except for the parachute is the landing craft, which is really monotonous.
There are more and more targets, and the Sky Ladder has fired with all its might, but the frequency of firing of the super cannon is so high, and there are too few targets that can be defeated.
At this time, several transport ships that could not stand it also opened fire, and these warships directly emptied the missile nest, shot out all the missiles that could be launched, and all the missiles flew to the enemy troops that landed, some of which were still nuclear bombs.
The aliens, who were busy landing, keenly discovered the incoming missiles and immediately opened fire to intercept them, and the light above the airborne area was thin in the blink of an eye, and the hit rate was actually not bad.
Aliens have suffered too much from missiles, and have developed the habit of intercepting missiles as soon as they see them, and they would rather fail in the airborne landing than intercept the missiles first.
In the end, less than one-tenth of the missiles broke through the blockade, but this tenth gave the enemy great damage, especially several of the nuclear bombs, which exploded directly in the airborne enemy troops, and all the enemy troops within the explosion range were instantly finished, and the enemy soldiers who were a little farther away were also blown over by the shock wave of the explosion, and many enemy soldiers' wings were burned by light radiation, and their bodies were also scorched by light radiation, rolling and falling to the ground.
In order to cover the airborne enemy soldiers, the alien fleet actually moved its position and used battleships to block the landing enemy soldiers.
The Ladder was not polite at all, and directly bombarded him, bombarding four enemy ships in one go, even if the remaining enemy ships landed, the Ladder still did not give up, and fired vigorously at the airborne area.
A few minutes later, this chaotic confrontation finally came to an end, the alien fleet attacking Mars lost as much as seventy percent, and the aliens lost more than one-fifth of their troops in the airborne process.
Of course, this is not the final statistical result, because the ladder and some of the transport ships are still bombarding the ground, looking like they are not dying.
At this moment, the depression in the hearts of aliens is simply indescribable, Ya's ice star (Ceres) descended so easily, how did it come to such a big loss as Red Star (Mars)?
In order to reduce the loss, as soon as the aliens landed, they immediately sent the giant worm out to dig a hole, but Mars is basically a desert planet, and the giant worm dug up the surface and drilled into the ground, but the flowing sand quickly buried the hole, and the enemy soldiers who planned to follow the drill into it were dumbfounded on the spot.
In desperation, the aliens can only let those who can drill into the sand bury them in the sand, regardless of whether they can bury them in the ground or not.
In this way, a large number of enemy soldiers burrowed into the sand pile as fast as they could, and the enemy group on the ground quickly disappeared, and in just a few minutes, no trace of the enemy soldiers could be found.
But can sand be compared to soil and rock formations? Obviously not!
