607.Battle of Heidelberg I

Front-line battlefield, Heidelberg.

At the beginning, the Tyranid Empire took advantage of the situation to seize this place, and for a time pushed the battle line forward, but with the counterattack of the Haiji civilization, the battle line was pushed back again.

Now the main fleet of the Haiji civilization has reached here, ready to retake this planet!

Once upon a time, the scene of the Tyranid Empire's attack on this planet was re-enacted. The fleets of both sides lined up in arrays with each other and engaged in fierce battles with naval guns.

Airborne capsules and transport planes rained down, and they were greeted by flowers, of course, not flowers and applause, but 88-mm anti-aircraft guns of the federal standard, and unlimited fire from the anti-aircraft missile towers at the base. Constantly you can see the beautiful evolution of metal blooming in the air.

Intercepted by a network of anti-aircraft artillery and missile fire, the Haiji and Sid civilizations, as well as the forces of the Federal Government-in-Exile, as well as the forces of Charlemagne and his supporters from the Ceris State. As long as they reach the surface of the planet, there are more Tyranid Empires, which have already set up firepower attacks.

As the main military general of the Tyranid Empire, the brave and fearless General Warfield personally sat in Heidelberg and commanded the whole army to fight. Although it is an underground attack, it is the front line, and it is always attacked by enemy and battleship gunfire.

Ishtar had wanted him to be cautious and not to set up his headquarters at the front line. But Warfield replied: "For the generals, not with their own soldiers, standing on the front line against the enemy? Do you have to stay in the back all day and look at the map? ”

Warfield was definitely a fierce general, from a very early age, when he was still in the service of the Federation, probably during the Kailian War, he was wounded many times, and resolutely led his brothers to attack the enemy's position, and finally succeeded in taking it.

Now that he's just sitting on the front lines directing the battle, it's safe for him to start with. Moreover, it is more convenient, closer to the battlefield, and more conducive to his judgment of the battle situation: "There is a problem with the defense of the H area, and the enemy cannot be allowed to establish a position at 6 o'clock, so order the nearby defenders to set up more fire points at the highest point of the floor." ”

"There is also a problem in the L area, and the B3 mecha unit is dispatched to support the local defense. And send tanks as heavy fire support! ”

In the combat headquarters, the holographic projection map clearly shows the current battle situation on the planet Heidelberg. According to the tradition of the Tyranid Empire, a planet is divided into 24 time zones according to latitude and longitude, and considering that there are also two poles, it is represented by 26 letters.

Of course, there are more detailed divisions here, such as L from 1 to 12 is the northern and southern hemispheres, and there are more elaborate divisions below this. However, these are also entrusted to the direct officers of each division.

The Haiji civilization has already begun to climb 6, and it is a large-scale 6 on a global scale. Although the defensive garrison of the Tyranid Empire has been operating here for a while, this is not the original sphere of influence of the Empire after all, so it is not satisfactory in terms of defense.

Warfield is not as good at fighting defensive counterattacks as Amazon, but combined with how he attacked before, he naturally understands how he should defend: "Ensure fire suppression!" Make sure you have enough support in each area! ”

Whether the war was won or not, there are only two reasons for this. One is that the internal factor depends on the person, and it is necessary to have the belief of victory and persevere to the end! Otherwise, there is no belief in victory, so how can we talk about winning the war?

The other is external factors weapons and equipment, good weapons and equipment can narrow or widen the gap between the comprehensive strength of the two sides. No matter how strong a person's mind is, it is flesh and blood after all, and only good equipment can protect them.

Because considering the importance of Heidelberg, it is of considerable strategic value. Therefore, when he received the news in advance that the enemy was going to attack Heidelberg, Warfield immediately requested the base camp to prepare a large amount of military supplies to ensure that even if he was besieged by the enemy, he could have sufficient supplies.

It is precisely with sufficient preparations, and the base camp has been informed, that General Les's Iron Fist fleet will rush to support with a chase block. Especially about His Majesty the Emperor, and the fact that he had to prepare for the imperial expedition in person, also inspired Warfield: "You must hold this place!" ”

Now all he has to do is to hold on, especially as long as the current enemy is building the Deng-6 position. It must be destroyed immediately, and even if it is bad, it will require heavy artillery fire, and in any case, it will delay the completion of the enemy's Deng-6 base.

Because as long as the construction of the Deng6 position is completed, all kinds of military supplies will arrive on the route, especially the possible heavy weapons, and when the time comes, you want to fight a defensive battle with the enemy with heavy weapons? Otherwise, the price will be quite heavy!

But don't forget here, the Haiji civilization has complete industrial capacity, and it is supported by the Sid civilization behind it. Moreover, there is also the exiled federal fleet and the forces under Charlemagne of the Ceris Kingdom, in order to recapture Heidelberg, a planet of great strategic value, how can they also assemble a large fleet?

According to the results of radar scanning of the surrounding satellite fields, the number of ships of various sizes has reached 1,500. Although Warfield has an elite fleet of "Helios" directly under his hands, and commands the Fourth Fleet and the Sixth Fleet, even if these two legion-sized fleets are added, the total number of warships is barely more than two hundred. But less than one-seventh of the enemy!

With a 7:1 ratio of friend to foe, it can be said that the disadvantage is obvious. No matter how brave your own fleet is, as long as the enemy is not a pig, knows how to use a reasonable formation to fight, and will cooperate with each other reasonably, it is basically difficult to defeat the opponent. Although the Tyranid Empire is fighting a defensive war, the fleet can rely on the planetary orbital platform for defense, and it can barely hold on to the enemy's fleet.

But this is not a long-term solution, because the enemy is not stupid. In order to better provide cover for the 6 troops on board, or to encircle and annihilate the fleet of the Tyranid Empire, it is gradually approaching.

Warfield knew how heavy the burden was on his shoulders, and decisively ordered: "Deploy the base star fortress cannon for me, you must give me like a nail, and you are definitely not allowed to take a step back!" ”

Fortunately, at this time, he was not fighting alone, because General Les's fleet was rushing to help.
