Chapter 963: Earth Defense (14)
Lin Zaishan saw that the flagship of the Pipe of the Gods had arrived, and immediately sent a signal to Wu Chaoqun, Schwarronsen and others. The daredevils worked together, tearing a gap in the protective net of the opposing flagship, and then burst into the ship, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the ship's guards.
If the Pipe of God evacuated the flagship at this time and hid among his other warships, Lin Zaishan would really have no choice but to wait for a while; But it would be a great shame to give up his flagship, and the Pipe of the Gods, who prides himself on being the top commander of the Megatron Universe, is now filled with grief and anger, how can he be willing to make such a "cowardly" move. He chose to stick to the flagship and direct the crew to fight the death squad head-on.
Lin Zaishan didn't want to delay time, so he used his advanced strength to weaken the enemy's crew strength with the prohibition rules, and then cleanly captured the Pipe of the Gods, hijacked the enhanced iQue, and opened heavy fire on the dense enemy ships around it.
Although the Pipe of God is restrained in its movements, it still keeps talking. "Lin Zaishan, do you think you will have the upper hand by restraining Ben Shuai? Take a good look at Mars and Earth that you are fighting to defend! ”
Lin Zaishan used the fugue monitoring screen to grasp the situation on Mars in an instant. Thousands of Combined Fleet warships were concentrating their fire on the Tian Yuan, which was powerless to fight back. The packing is 99% complete, and the Tianyuan's protective net is on the verge of collapse. At the same time, He Tianzun personally led nearly 500,000 reinforcement ships to bombard the Earth-Moon defense line.
The situation was already so critical that even the death squads would not be able to rush to the rescue in a top-notch spaceship such as the iQue.
Lin Zaishan immediately cast the time microcontrol ability, and went back 5 seconds. In the first second after that, he made a quick calculation, determined the thousands of enemy ships that were most threatening and tens of thousands of key points that would affect the follow-up battle, and set a sequence of targets; At 2-4 seconds, turn on the iQue's firepower to the maximum and attack the set target with all its might. At the 5th second, he jumped in front of the Yuan in front of the iQue.
Then the passage of time returned to normal, and thousands of enemy ships broke down, self-detonated or collided almost simultaneously, seriously affecting the operations of the Combined Fleet.
The Tian Yuan successfully completed the packing work before the defense collapsed. Lin Zaishan opened a transmission channel and directed the hijacked iQue flagship and Tian Yuan to return safely to Earth's orbit.
The Combined Fleet attacking Mars was temporarily in chaos because the commander of the Pipe of the Gods and the flagship were hijacked, leaving the dragons leaderless.
//////
As soon as Lin Zaishan arrived in the earth's orbit, he immediately issued 4 orders:
(1) Release super-star-level interstellar insects such as small beans to resist and alleviate the attack of enemy ships.
(2) release and resettle the packed Mars as soon as possible, and restart the Mars base; Drag Venus and Mercury to the Earth-Moon system field and defend in groups.
At present, in addition to the Earth and the Moon, there are also Liberty City, Lonely City, Mars, Venus, Mercury and five space cities, which constitute a dense group of celestial bodies locally. Natural and man-made celestial bodies intertwine with each other to form a sturdy super-defensive network. If there were only Earth and the Moon, a saturation attack from the enemy's huge ship group would quickly overload the defenses; But when the load is shared by multiple celestial bodies at the same time, it is much easier.
(3) Issuing the highest level of wartime mobilization order formulated in advance, and mobilizing and arming all the people of the Earth-Star Alliance to participate in the battle to defend the earth.
(4) Unlimited production of the "Minuteman" mecha at maximum capacity - a miniature mecha powered by a low-level star soul, the size of a humanoid, and the only weapon is a metal shotgun. When the shotgun is ejected, an attack code is dynamically applied, as it passes through the Earth-Moon protective net.
The Minuteman Mecha is inexpensive, and any broken copper and iron can be used as a manufacturing material, and it can be driven as long as the Level 1 Star Soul Primordial is very suitable for mass production. This mecha is like a pre-apocalyptic drone, which can be commanded by SAI or manually controlled. In order to reduce the load on the defense system, the earth side specially designed a platform similar to a large-scale online shooter, in which ordinary people control militia mecha to participate in battle in front of the intelligent terminal. A person who has almost no combat ability himself can also play the combat power of an elite warrior like playing a computer game.
The Minuteman mecha has poor endurance, and its poor defense is useless in front of the starships. When fighting in space, the militia mechs are completely cannon fodder; However, at present, the earth side relies on the earth, Mars, the moon and other celestial bodies to defend itself, and does not need long-distance and large-scale maneuvering, and the militia mecha has a place to use.
All production lines are running at full power, and in less than 30 minutes, 200 million Minuteman mechs were produced. Since then, production has continued to ramp up steadily.
(5) Expedited refit and upgrade of the surviving warships, especially the two Tian Yuan and the five fugues captured by all sides.
Lin Zaishan had quietly learned eighty or ninety percent of the technology and design concepts of the other Bodhi during the previous debate with the high-level plane expert group. The Bodhi was by far the most defensible warship he knew, and the technology in that area alone would be enough to benefit Earth.
The new upgrades are mainly focused on defense. With strong defense, the survivability of the upgraded 7 core ships will be multiplied. This allows them to break through their protective nets and brave the enemy's 10,000-strong fires to carry out some of the most dangerous missions when necessary.
(6) Continue to fire a dense rain of missiles, mixed with space-time warp projectiles, to block the enemy.
Space-time warp projectiles are expensive to manufacture and complex in process, making them impossible to mass-produce. At present, the stock of the earth is close to depletion, and it will not be able to replenish it for a long time in the future. But now that the situation is critical, there is no need to spare the remaining 10 or so.
//////
The attack of the interstellar insects and the launch of space-time warping bombs had an immediate effect. The overwhelming offensive of more than 600,000 warships of the combined fleet (460,000 new reinforcements and 150,000 remaining to besiege Mars) was significantly alleviated in an instant.
He Tianzun called out all the iQue and personally took action, concentrating on dealing with more than 10 interstellar insects, and it took nearly an hour and a half to strangle all the interstellar insects except Xiaodouzi.
Xiaodouzi was seriously injured, and was also banned and injured by He Tianzun's high-level forces one after another, dying and dying.
Lin Zaishan took the risk to rescue Xiaodouzi, but it had already entered a dormant state, and without the infusion of powerful life energy, it would not be able to wake up in a short time.
Lin Zaishan tried to use the Pipe of the Gods as a hostage to blackmail the combined fleet, but He Tianzun was unmoved, and the sentence "There are only victorious generals under the deity, and there are no captured commanders" blocked Lin Zaishan and the others back, and then violently dispatched troops.
Under the urging of He Tianzun, the combined fleet surrounded the Earth-Moon System and bombarded indiscriminately every second. From time to time, the Earth's defense line is breached. In addition to warships, the Combined Fleet also began to send personnel to break through the gap, and even some ships and personnel landed on the Moon and Mars. The battle for the defense of the earth has entered the final decisive stage.
//////
In the various bases and personnel gathering places in the Earth-Moon field, there is a tense wartime state everywhere.
The production bases are desperately making missiles and militia mechs; The military bases are constantly firing missiles, ships and armed personnel; Billions of ordinary people sit in front of smart terminals and remotely control militia mechs to participate in the war; The 7 core warships that have been upgraded are divided into 2 groups, one consisting of 2 Tianyuan to assist in the defense of the Earth-Moon system, and the other consisting of 5 enhanced iQue, which will jump to the periphery of the Earth-Moon field and distract the enemy's ship group with extraordinary defense and mobility. As the supreme commander and the strongest man on his side, Lin Zaishan led the death squad to launch surprise attacks from time to time, striking the enemy and annihilating key targets out of nowhere, in addition, there are a large number of 5-7 level star soul people on the earth side of the close combat force, they are divided into 10 teams of 10,000 people, and they will support wherever they are needed.
There are very few ships left on the Earth side that have interstellar combat capabilities, but the power to conduct positional warfare centered on the Earth is still there. As long as the Earth-Moon Field Super Defense System does not collapse, they have a barrier to hold onto.
As far as the Combined Fleet is concerned, they have been working far away, the rear is unstable, and the war of annihilation of the earth has dragged on for too long, and the battle situation is tragic and costly, a hundred times more than their top management expected in advance. From He Tianzun to the ordinary ship crew, they all hope to make a quick decision in the next time, crush the last line of defense of the earth with the power of thunder, and then slaughter and destroy it happily, and then hurry back.
In order to achieve this tactical goal, they cannot evenly exert their strength and compete for attrition. He Tianzun gathered the best ships in the group together to form the main fleet, and concentrated fire to attack a point of the Earth-Moon defense line; Most of the remaining ships formed an auxiliary fleet to encircle and respond. In addition, Yate and other masters were also assigned as commandos to choose the opportunity to destroy.
Within 10 hours of the final battle, more than 3,500 breaches were opened in the Earth's defenses. The Combined Fleet had 120,000 sorties and more than 1.3 million armed men breaking through the gap and being eliminated or driven back, with a total of 160,000 warships destroyed.
The Earth side lost more than 8 billion militia mechs, 30,000 fighters and more than 12 million civilians. Such a large number of civilian casualties were related to the loss of Liberty City. Liberty City is the smallest of the Earth-Moon Celestial Bodies, and it forms a Earth-Star Alliance with Earth, but remains administratively autonomous. The administrative system of Liberty City is relatively "democratic" and "liberal" in form, and its decision-making efficiency is low, and it likes to drag its feet in the implementation of Lin Zaishan's orders.
When Art led a fleet through the gap to storm Freetown, several powerful factions in the Freecity authorities were still arguing over whether to accept Lin Zaishan's mobilization order for the whole people to participate in the war. The citizens of the Free City were devastated before they were fully armed. Although Lin Zaishan personally dispatched to block Yate and the Earth Army went all out to rescue him, Liberty City was not able to save it in the end. More than 12 million citizens were slaughtered without fighting back, Liberty City was destroyed, and the surviving citizens were resettled on Earth.
This partial fiasco greatly stimulated the nerves of the people of Liberty City, and the authorities and citizens changed their normal way and accepted Lin Zaishan's leadership without reservation.
The Combined Fleet initially tried to take Earth directly, but after encountering stubborn resistance, it shifted its focus to the weakly defended Venus, Mercury, and several space cities. After paying a lot of casualties, these targets were uprooted one by one. Subsequently, the fire was concentrated on Mars. Under a 3-hour saturation strike, Mars was destroyed.
The Earth side reluctantly moved half of the inhabitants of Mars to Earth.
The Combined Fleet began to bombard Lonely City again. Lonely City has a defense system designed by Yuan Tianzun himself, not a soft persimmon like Liberty City. He Tianzun could no longer care about the infamy of destroying his masterpiece's masterpiece at this time, and took matters into his own hands, not hesitating to use the power of cause and effect to reserve, and finally destroyed the Lonely City. Fortunately, most of the residents of Lonely City have long been transferred to Earth, and the casualties among civilians are not too great.
The Earth-Moon Super Defense System has been greatly weakened by the successive destruction of various carriers.
He Tianzun ordered all the ships to concentrate fire and bombard the moon, and after two hours of non-stop saturation attack, the moon was blown up.
Watching the moon disappear, He Tianzun raised his head and laughed. "The stumbling blocks have been cleared, and at last only the abominable Earth remains. Tell the whole army, rest for 30 minutes, and then destroy the earth in one fell swoop! ”
