Chapter 59: The Result of the Countershock
"Why, why is it the way it is?" Looking at the picture on the screen, Spred, who was the most opposed to this method, kept muttering to himself.
At the same time as he spoke, the first few detectors in the picture had already rushed into the opponent's formation. Like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, just a few detectors have an extremely huge impact on the opposing front. Then, as more of your units become entangled with each other, the opponent quickly falls into chaos.
"That's an exaggeration." Seeing that the attackers on the screen were being pursued by detectors that were far fewer than them, and most of them still had no combat effectiveness, Zhou Xin was puzzled. As if talking to himself, he asked the group, "How come I never thought that our probes were so powerful before that they could chase them in turn?" Can they all be successful? Hearing Zhou Xin's obviously ridiculous words, everyone was surprised and didn't know how to answer.
Although the current situation of the war is developing according to his previous expectations, the results that far exceeded his expectations are also incredible, "Are those attackers really afraid of us knowing their true identities?" But why? Obviously, our strength in front of each other is far weaker than theirs. ”
"Now it seems that the other party did not do this because of our strength at all." Zhou Xin then analyzed, "Then what other reason would make them so desperate to hide their identity? Or - we were wrong in our previous guess, and the reason they did it was not to hide their identities at all——? ”
"Impossible." Spred shook his head affirmatively, "I don't think they did this for any other purpose than to hide their identity, and if they want to find out, they can only find the answer from the reason." ”
"But is it necessary for them to do so much just to hide their identities?" Zhou Xin asked as he stared at the screen with a frown. At this time, he had already seen some enemy units in the picture, just like he had seen before, without being attacked, just because they did not retreat in time and were too close to their own units, and took the initiative to self-destruct. Before that, Zhou Xin didn't have any special feelings because he felt that all the other party's units were just automatic equipment. But when he saw the footage captured by the probe in the submarine base, and knew that there were actually living people in each combat unit of the other side manipulating, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart, "Why do they think that concealing their identity is more important than their own lives?" Hearing Zhou Xin's question, there was a sudden silence in the command cabin, and only Spred let out a long sigh.
"Maybe the values of the two sides are different." After a while, Dart opened his mouth and said to Zhou Xin, "But you'd better not sympathize with them because of this. You know, the cause of all this is due to the other party's active attack, and even if they hadn't taken the initiative to attack this time, this result would not have happened now. ”
"Don't worry, I understand." Zhou Xin nodded, "Compassion can only be placed on life forms that are not a threat to us. At this time, under the impact of the units belonging to Zhou Xin's side, the encirclement that was originally only a little bit left has expanded to nearly twice the size of the child. Of course, after the initial chaos, the other party has now reacted, and they have begun to reorganize the formation in an attempt to prevent Zhou Xin's side from continuing to attack. However, the work progressed slowly due to the interference of the large number of probes mixed in the opposing formation, and the entire encirclement was still moving outward at a certain speed.
"What are we going to do next?" While observing the battle situation in front of him, Dart said with a frown, "This advantage won't last long. As the encirclement continues to expand, the number of friendly units that each opposing unit will have to face is gradually decreasing, and it will not be long before they will once again have the advantage of the whole battle. ”
"Let's see how it goes." Zhou Xin didn't come up with a better way, "Maybe there will be some turning point next." ”
However, the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and nearly ten minutes passed, and there was still no turning point in the entire battlefield. The only consolation is that until now the encirclement has not stopped expanding outward. But even so, Dart's face couldn't help but show an uneasy look.
"Brother Captain, the number of all our participating units has now lost nearly a third." At this point, Atlas reports bad news, which makes the atmosphere in the command cabin even heavier.
"That's it." After being silent for a while, Zhou Xin said helplessly, "Being able to bring the whole situation back to the current point is much better than I expected before, after all, the strength of the two sides is too different, don't force any victory." We should be content to be able to destroy some more enemy units,"
With a long sigh, Dart said, "It's a pity - if the difference in strength wasn't so great, we still have a chance." ”
"Unfortunately, what happened later was so unexpected that we didn't take the opportunity to recycle more equipment." Spred replied regretfully.
As he spoke, the helpless Zhou Xin had regained his composure, and as soon as Spred's words fell, he opened his mouth and ordered: "Forget it, Atlas, prepare-" However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Atlas.
"Wait." Although there are only two words, because of the suddenness of the incident, the little girl still attracted a lot of people's attention.
After being interrupted, Zhou Xin was slightly stunned, and then subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Atlas didn't answer Zhou Xin's question immediately, but reported in a tone of uncertainty after a few seconds: "Brother Captain—according to the footage sent back by the probe during the battle—people think that the number of attackers seems to be decreasing—"
"Decrease?" This answer greatly surprised Zhou Xin, who confirmed to Atlas, "Are you sure?" Will it be wiped out because it is a battle? ”
"Although it is impossible to accurately calculate the number of enemies because of the battle." The little girl gave an ambiguous answer, "But in most of the footage sent back by the probe, their numbers are indeed decreasing." Moreover, the reduction far exceeds the amount we can eliminate......"
