Chapter Thirty-Eight: Bombing the Pits

Watching the back of the chief of staff disappear at the door of the office, Lieutenant General Zhang Zhenglong let out a long breath and sat back in his chair tiredly.

Next, the fleet staff immediately began to operate at high speed, and one order after another was issued from the staff in the name of the command.

Half an hour later, the space warrior who was not far from the Moriaya pit received a combat order, and when he saw this order, the captain and the others understood that Bai Qi's battle plan had been approved by the military.

The knight immediately convened a video conference again, and according to the order of the military, the knight divided the space warriors into four detachments to establish four safe airborne bases in the four directions of the southeast, northwest, and northwest of the Moriaya pit.

According to the Knights' plan, the Crusader team and the Knights Hospitaller will lead the space soldiers of bases nine and seven to establish a full-authority airborne base south of the Moriath Pit.

Establishing a base in the south of the pit will likely face the two-sided attack of the Zerg from the Miners' City and the Moria's Pits, and the knight has kept the most difficult bones for himself, so it can be seen that this person can become the first person in the space, and it is not for nothing.

In the northern part of the pit, which would also be attacked by reinforcements from the Moriath Mine and the Zerg Lair, the Knight suggested that the Space Warriors of Base 3 led by the Sword Cult and Ice Bear take over, but they were fiercely opposed by the Sword Cult and Ice Bear.

After some bargaining, the Freedom Alliance and the Prophet team at Base 1 divided a part of their forces, led by the Prophet team, and merged into Base 3 to defend the north with the Sword Cult and the Ice Bear.

Agamemnon, the captain of the Prophet's team, had a rather ugly face, and they had been bought by their ally, the Free Alliance.

The two directions of the east and west were relatively easy to hand over to Bai Qi's Thirteenth Base and the Freedom Alliance of the First Base.

This arrangement is obviously unreasonable, and the number of space fighters at Base One is already large. Even if more than twenty people were divided into the third team, there were nearly sixty space warriors. Not to mention that there are as many as three fourth-level powerhouses in the Freedom Alliance.

The knight's rationale for this arrangement is that the rank of Space Soldier at Base Thirteen is generally higher. The largest number of MechWarriors are retrieved.

Strangely, Bai Qi accepted this arrangement without any prevarication.

After a short meeting, the combat objectives of each team were arranged, and everyone quickly moved to their respective destinations.

For a temporary team composed of space soldiers, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to achieve fine command, and the knight obviously knows this well, and only arranges mission objectives. Success or failure, life or death, everyone depends on their abilities.

The four armies circled the wasteland, approaching the Moriath Mine from four directions, south, east, west, and north.

Forty kilometers from the edge of the Moria's pit, Bai Qi ordered the army to stop.

He ordered a hundred armored vehicles to be connected end to end, forming a large circle with a diameter of one kilometer, and then all the mecha fighters, centered on their respective armored vehicles, formed a position.

Less than ten minutes after the position was established. Hundreds of air-space fighters roared through the sky, and miniature missiles were fired from the belly of the fighters to the ground.

These miniature missiles look small, but they are surprisingly powerful, even no less than the conventional large missiles of Bai Qi's era. The warheads of these miniature missiles are all miniature nuclear warheads.

In this space age, the problem of miniaturization and radiation of nuclear warheads has long been solved.

However, the Moriah pit is simply too big. With a total area of more than 500 square kilometers, more than half of the 2,000 miniature missiles fired by the first batch of 250 air-space fighters had to take care of the pit walls around the mine. Only half of the missiles landed in the swarm of the low pit, which was simply not enough to fully cover all the bugs. It can only be taken care of.

Moreover, the carapace of the Zerg is too tough, once it is more than fifty meters away from the explosion point, it cannot kill the tank worm, more than 100 meters cannot kill the stealth mosquito, and a little farther away, even the knife worm cannot be blown up.

The reason why half of the firepower was allocated to take care of the pit wall was to blow up the caves on the pit wall in all directions and block the escape path of the Zerg.

Due to the special climate and geological conditions of Resource Star 19, a dense cave system like a spider web has formed underground, but this cave system only exists at a level of about 300 meters above the surface, and once it exceeds this depth, the cave system disappears.

The depth of the Moria's pit is well over three hundred meters, and once the pit walls are completely blown down, it can block the escape route of the Zerg from the underground.

On an armored car, Bai Qi was looking at the video screen from the fighter plane, which was his special treatment as a battle planner, and no other space soldier had the right to see these things.

Judging from the surface alone, this bombing only killed less than one-twentieth of tank insects, less than one-tenth of sharp knife insects, and more than one-tenth of stealth mosquitoes.

The reason why so many stealth mosquitoes were killed was because Bai Qi asked the fighter to focus on eliminating the stealth mosquito with the greatest threat, so when the fighter flew over the Moria mine, the airborne electromagnetic cannon focused on locking on the stealth mosquitoes in the mine, so that such a result could be obtained.

The power of the airborne electromagnetic cannon is far greater than that of the electromagnetic gun in the hands of the mecha warriors, and even if it is not modified, it can basically eliminate a stealth mosquito with one shot.

However, what satisfied Bai Qi the most was not the results of the stealth mosquito, but the chaotic scene of some Zerg in the video screen, which undoubtedly showed that many brain worms were killed.

This was a bit unexpected for Bai Qi, but after a little analysis of the video, he understood what was going on.

Even when these Zerg are devouring ores, they do not forget to protect the brain worms, so generally speaking, there are always more worms gathered around the brain worms, and the fighter planes bombed just now, focusing on taking care of the more dense places of the Zerg, and invisibly focusing on taking care of the brain worms, the carapace of the brain worms is the weakest among the Zergs, so it is no wonder that they will be killed in large numbers.

Without the command of the brain worm, the terrifying of the Zerg has undoubtedly dropped significantly.

But apparently there were still a large number of brain worms surviving, and the Zerg in the pit reacted quickly, they did not rush to escape, but quickly dispersed, tens of thousands of worms were evenly distributed on five or six hundred square kilometers of land, and the number of each square kilometer was only a hundred, which undoubtedly brought great difficulties to the bombing.

The first batch of air-space fighters had just passed by, dozens of medium-sized transport landing ships were roaring at extremely high speeds, and when they passed over the four airborne bases established by the space soldiers, the hatch at the bottom of the spacecraft suddenly opened, and more than a dozen armored vehicles were thrown directly out of the spacecraft.

After leaving the spacecraft, these armored vehicles immediately activated the anti-gravity flying device and flew towards the pit in an orderly manner, and after landing, these armored vehicles rushed towards the pit without hesitation. (To be continued......)
