Chapter 961: Earth Defense (12)

The 300,000 warships newly recruited by the advanced plane from the directly subordinate star system arrived on the Earth battlefield as scheduled. At this point, the total number of front-line warships of the Combined Fleet increased to 570,000. The newly arrived battleships are all the main warships of the directly subordinate galaxy, well-equipped and powerful.

He Tianzun conducted a brief military parade and ordered: "The whole army will attack and start the last battle against the earth." The earth will not be destroyed, and the offensive will not stop! ”

570,000 warships formed a triangular formation and attacked the Earth Defense Line from the right side.

In the Earth General Command, Lin Zaishan was absent because he was being questioned by the high-level plane expert group, and the command was temporarily represented by Sun Zhenghong.

"How many ships does the other side have? 50 tens of thousands? Sun Zhenghong was taken aback, actual combat experience shows that the second line of defense on the earth can withstand about 300,000 enemy ships at the same time, and now the enemy's 500,000 warships are swarmed up, and the pressure can be imagined. Pass my order: All warships and mechs will go to the front line to defend, and those above level 8 Star Soul will form a death squad to destroy the enemy's core warship! ”

Jupiter has been blown up by the Combined Fleet, and the outpost has shifted to Saturn. On Saturn's largest moon are two of the Earth's most important arsenals: the Earth and the Small Mecha Production Center. It can manufacture nearly 1,000 Earth spaceships and hundreds of thousands of Ranger mechs every hour, and is the blood supply center of the Earth Star Alliance.

He Annie is the head of the military industry department, and since Lin Zaishan transferred the weapon technology prototype back from other planes, she has been working overtime at the Guardian base to supervise and manage the production of weapons. It can be said that every Earth and Ranger mecha used by the Earth Star Alliance has Annie's hard work and hard work.

"What? Is there enough raw material for Earth? How many more can be built? 1,000 is 1,000 ships, and you can't save materials! After the Earth was discontinued, we went all out to build the Ranger mech! Anne Ho kept issuing orders to the relevant personnel, "What is the hourly production of the Ranger mech now?" 650,000? No, we have to increase production! Running out of energy? Then pull the energy from the Earth HQ! It is important to have Ranger mech production of 1 million/hour. You must know that in the case that our warships cannot be replenished, the Ranger mecha is the basic guarantee of combat effectiveness! ”

A deputy urgently reported: "Mr. He, our transport ship is being intercepted by the enemy fleet on its return journey, and the transportation route has been cut off, and it is temporarily impossible to transport mechs to the front line!" ”

"Send me the picture ahead!" He Annie quickly glanced at the real-time footage a few times, and immediately ordered: "Let all the Ranger mechs in stock go to the K13 area through the transmission device to block the enemy ships!" ”

In less than 1 minute, 7,500 Ranger mechs were teleported to the designated area, and the follow-up continued. At this time, the enemy fleet attacking the transport route happened to be in pursuit. Ranger mechs swarmed up and entangled the enemy ship.

The commander of this fleet broke through the gap in the defense line, staring all the way at the transport ship with weak firepower of the Earth Army to take advantage, and was fighting happily, when a large nest of ranger mechs suddenly flashed out in front of him, thinking that he had been ambushed, and quickly ordered a retreat.

Due to its endurance being far weaker than that of a battleship, the Ranger mech had to give up after pursuing it for a distance. Annoyed Anne Ho refused, and she once again let a large number of mecha rush to the predicted evacuation route through the teleporter to ambush the opponent. Subsequently, the fleet passed by the ambush site, and was severely damaged by the swarm tactics of the mechs, and only 3 ships escaped.

Scenes like this against large warships with small drone mechs take place at the same time at a range of hundreds of millions of kilometers. At the height of the battle, tens of thousands of mechs were destroyed almost every second. The Earth Army originally had hundreds of millions of mechs, but an hour after the United Fleet started the "final battle", it plummeted to 95 million, and then slowly declined.

In the case of a breakthrough of the outer line of defense, the Earth Army retreated to the asteroid belt, using dense asteroids as a natural barrier to stubbornly block the combined fleet.

The Combined Fleet ignores the asteroids at first, but soon discovers that these small objects, which have been coded by the Earth Force and incorporated into the Super Defense System, are playing a terrifying role in field control.

At this time, the Combined Fleet still had 320,000 warships left, so it temporarily withdrew from the small star belt and surrounded the lonely Saturn.

//////

Saturn is too important to the earth, it has the largest natural satellite system in the solar system, rich in mineral resources, and is an important weapons production base; The large number of moons and the beautiful rings of Saturn have been artificially coded to form a powerful protective field, the most fortified fortress outside of the Earth-Moon system. If Saturn is captured or destroyed, the Earth-Star Alliance will not only lose an important fortress, but also lose the most important production base of the Earth and Ranger mechs, and the blood supply mechanism will be seriously problematic while the portal is wide open. This is absolutely unacceptable to the Earth Star Alliance.

Out of this consideration, the Earth Army, under the command of Sun Zhenghong, did not hesitate to choose to stick to Saturn. As long as Saturn's core defense is not breached, the Earth Army can use the Earth-Moon system as a base, using Mars and the remaining asteroids as a springboard, and provide a steady stream of support with the convenience of space.

The main force of the dreadnought fleet led by Xu Yuxin and the retrograde fleet led by Lynch were all transferred to Saturn to assist in the defense at the first time. At the same time, Sun Zhenghong ordered the remaining tens of millions of mecha to launch guerrilla warfare and raid warfare in the vicinity, doing everything possible to delay the enemy's attack and reduce the pressure on Saturn.

Wu Chaoqun and Schwarronsen each led a death squad composed of 100 eighth-level elite warriors, and used teleportation devices to attack continuously, striking the enemy's high-value targets out of nowhere, causing great casualties to the combined fleet. They forced He Tianzun to set up an elite squad commanded by Yate and He Bingjiao to deal with it.

//////

The Combined Fleet initially planned to reach Earth in 10 hours, but the actual situation was that it took them 12 hours to reach the periphery of Saturn.

The Earth Army's code on Saturn's rings is very powerful and dangerous, and the ships of the Combined Fleet can be banned or destroyed if they are not careful. Only with the help of strong men such as He Tianzun or top warships such as the iQue can they be eliminated one by one.

In addition to Saturn's rings, the large number of moons also serves as natural bunkers. Every time the Combined Fleet destroys a satellite, it takes a lot of time and costs.

By the time the largest Zeniton remained, it had been 29 hours since the final battle. The combined fleet has less than 200,000 living warships left.

The protective net in the Saturn field is mainly woven with each Rangean as nodes, and now that the Rangean is completely lost, the protective net is naturally greatly weakened. Under the bombardment of 200,000 warships, the defenses of the last Rangeton were quickly overloaded and on the verge of collapse.

In the Guardian base, Chen Qingzheng reminded Annie He: "Miss He, the defense system is about to collapse, we have to evacuate quickly!" ”

"Wait until I teleport the last batch of mechs." Annie He stood in front of the control system, calmly and neatly performed frequent operations.

Lin Fuzi system prompted: "The overload index has reached 300%, and the crash countdown, 10, 9, 8 ......"

When Lin Fuzi counted to 3, Annie Ho finally completed the operation, teleported the last batch of Ranger mechs to the Martian base, and then immediately activated the individual teleportation device she carried with her, leaving instantly before the Rangean exploded.

He Tianzun stared expressionlessly at Saturn, who had become the commander of the light pole, in front of the big screen in the command cabin, and coldly gave an order: "Explode it!" ”

200,000 battleships opened fire together.

Saturn was blown up in an instant. The Earth Army had already ambushed the Super Bomb on Saturn in advance, and at this time, the bomb was activated, forming a combined force with the explosion of Saturn, and bursting out with a power beyond the expectations of the Combined Fleet, destroying thousands of warships.

"Earthlings are really hateful!" The Pipe of the Gods was frightened and angry.

"As a commander-in-chief, you must not be alarmed." He Tianzun reprimanded, "Order; The army continues its march towards Earth! ”

//////

Saturn and Jupiter have been destroyed by the Combined Fleet, and then heading into the interior of the solar system, there is a dense asteroid belt. In previous battles, a large number of asteroids had already been destroyed by the Combined Fleet, resulting in a decrease in the density and power of this natural protective net, resulting in numerous gaps.

Drawing on the lessons of the past, the Pipe of God ordered the fleet to explode an asteroid when it saw it, so that the Earth Army had no barrier to rely on.

Thirty-three hours after the "Last Battle", the Forward of the Combined Fleet penetrated the asteroid belt and advanced to the vicinity of Mars' orbit. As long as Mars is destroyed, it means the end of the second line of defense on Earth, and the combined fleet will enter the final battle until the third line of defense, the Earth-Moon System, which is also the headquarters of the Earth Army and the base camp of the Earth-Star Alliance.

With the asteroid belt cleared, there is no strong natural barrier around Mars, and the main defensive forces are land-based military bases and 3 space cities, as well as fleets, personnel, and mechs withdrawn from the periphery.

At this time of the battle, there were only a few relatively strong flagships, more than 100 retrogrades, and less than 500 Earth ships left in the battleships of the Earth Army; The number of space combat mechs has dropped to more than 10 million; More than half of the two death squads were damaged.

Mars, unlike Saturn and Jupiter, is not only a mining planet, but also a real planet of migration. On Mars, there is 1 city, 140,000 inhabitants, more than 100 large factories, farms, tens of millions of industrial mechs, and countless inventory resources. Mars is a base for heavy industry and an important scientific research base, as well as an important production area for various missiles and miniature mechas.

In the minds of earthlings, Mars is already the second home, second only to the home planet Earth. The earthlings must not accept the option of giving up Mars mentally. For the Earth Army, defending Mars is another difficult battle that has to be fought.

"Hasn't Captain Lin come out yet?" Sun Zhenghong felt that he was overwhelmed.

Now that it was a wartime state, and in the absence of Lin Zaishan, he, the vice captain of the dreadnought team, had to take on the important responsibility of commander-in-chief. Every decision he made was related to the outcome of the battle and the life and death of the tens of billions of people in the Earth Star Alliance. Although he has the super system of Lin Fuzi and the assistance of many elites, Sun Zhenghong still feels powerless. Every time he came to this moment, he would think of Lin Zaishan, and he sincerely admired this guy's extraordinary courage and ability. Lin Zaishan, who usually looks like a "two" and a bit of a "virgin", is always able to come up with ideas, get solutions, and take action at the most difficult, difficult, and dangerous critical moments, so as to miraculously turn the situation around. This kind of ability, he, Sun Zhenghong, needs to be strengthened too much.

When it comes to professionalism, his grandson is from a police background, but now he has to give orders as the supreme commander of the galaxy army, which is really a bit powerless. He really wants to be like Wu Chaoqun, who is dedicated to being a warrior, just charging into battle and not worrying about the overall situation.

"Alas!" Sun Zhenghong sighed quietly while no one was paying attention.

Lan Yan reported: "Captain Sun, everyone is asking what to do next? ”

"You tell everyone to wait a moment." Sun Zhenghong urged Lin Fuzi again: "No matter what Captain Lin is busy with now, please ask him to reply as soon as possible!" ”

//////

In the subspace inside the Bodhi spacecraft, Lin Zaishan answered tens of thousands of questions one after another, competed with a group of experts and abilities for thousands of rounds, and won more than 90% of the audience.

He finally said: "The matter of repairing the loopholes in the galaxy universe has been clearly identified, and Lin even did not hesitate to tell the relevant technical details according to the truth. If you still have doubts, you can take back the record of Lin's Q&A to analyze and study it; If you think that Lin's words are not credible, you can ask Princess Tianling, Elder Tianchangxing of Tujia City, and Master of the Gluttonous Clan for verification at the right time. Do you still have questions? ”

The experts and scholars were silent at this time, and Lin Zaishan had already answered all the questions they thought of within the scope of his ability. Although most of them still have difficulty mentally and emotionally accepting that the main force to repair the loopholes in the galaxy universe is Lin Zaishan and the dreadnought team he leads, reason tells them that this is the only possible fact.

If Lin Zaishan really has to patch the loopholes in the galaxy universe, then he means that he is very likely to be the best person who can lead the entire galaxy universe human beings out of the end times.

These experts and scholars are not snobs who tend to be inflammatory, and their cultivation and achievements are based on a specific foundation of belief and reason, and if the foundation of this belief and reason is shaken, they will be worse off than dead. In the past, most of them were accustomed to the power structure in which the Three Heavenly Venerables were the supreme masters of the Galaxy Universe, so they naturally easily listened to the words of He Tianzun, the only remaining ninth-level powerhouse, and worshiped him as the patcher of the loopholes in the Galaxy Universe and the savior of the end times. Now, after a battle with Lin Zaishan, I realized that I was very wrong.

A cognitive crisis means an existential crisis. They will face the most difficult choice in this life: either refuse to admit what Lin Zaishan said and did against their will, continue to follow the brutal and arbitrary He Tianzun, and watch mankind and the universe go to destruction step by step; Either trust and support Lin Zaishan, or even follow his surroundings, taking a big risk to fight for a glimmer of hope and possibility of self-salvation and salvation.

The entire venue remained silent.

Lin Zaishan knew that the purpose of this inquiry had been achieved, and said loudly: "Everyone: Lin still has a battle to fight that is related to the life and death of the earth, so I will not accompany you for a long time. Finally, are there any questions? ”

An expert asked, "Master Lin, what are you going to do with us captives?" ”

Lin Zaishan said: "If you don't help the United Fleet in the next Earth Defense War, we Earth are willing to treat you with courtesy, treat you as guests and friends, and will never hurt you." ”

The expert said, "If we promise not to help the Combined Fleet, can Master Lin give us back our freedom?" "If he had asked this question to Hetianzun, the Pipe of the Gods, or Art, the answer would have been tragic; But if you ask Lin Zaishan, maybe there will be a surprise.

Since this issue concerns the interests of everyone present, all the experts looked at Lin Zaishan with concern, and some even prayed that Lin Zaishan would not be too "careful".

Lin Zaishan said angrily: "Of course there is no problem; However......" he changed his words, "Lin has a lot of subordinates, if you let you go in vain, I'm afraid that all your subordinates will not be convinced." As long as you leave some knowledge or technology that Lin has not yet mastered according to your own situation, so that Lin can give an account to the brothers with dignity. ”

The experts said: "This is easy to say." "And rightfully so."

So, they swarmed up and used secret words to transmit information to Lin Zaishan. Much of this information contains knowledge and skills that are urgently needed on Earth, and others, if not urgently needed for war, are instructive. Some experts are afraid of "losing their position" in front of powerful characters like Lin Zaishan, so they do not hesitate to tell each other about their lives.

Lin Zaishan really let them go as promised, and didn't even detain the Bodhi, which they were proud of.

Before saying goodbye, Tian Zhixing asked Lin Zaishan alone: "The master just mentioned an elder named Tian Changxing in Tujia City of the Tian Yuan Continent several times, can you tell me the basic information of this elder?" ”

Lin Zaishan smiled slightly, "No problem." Refreshingly transmitted the information of Tianchangxing to Tianzhixing, who quietly browsed it and said, "Old decay farewell." ”

Lin Zaishan waved his hand at the Bodhi in the distance, and then answered Sun Zhenghong's communication.
