Chapter 379: Coming
Chapter 379: Coming
The center of the advance brigade has always been the focus of contention between the two sides since the battle, and even when it was besieged, the Zerg did not give up the attack on the advance brigade's defense line. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Before Li raised his salary and led people to arrive, Romulo and his soldiers had already resisted the continuous onslaught of the Zerg Legion for nearly an hour and a half.
At the beginning, the two brigades of 3,000 men were counted after the war, and only about 2,000 remained. Of course, the real battle damage rate is not so exaggerated, and most of them have no choice but to enter the shaft to help blast after the mecha is destroyed. The walls of the passage here are extremely hard, and even a metal blasting rod equipped with SS level Mori crystals can only blow up a hole less than fifty meters in diameter in a single explosion.
Even so, the effect was achieved by using a reinforced blasting rod. If they had used the kind of blasting rod that Kurenze had used in the sub-brood, they would have been able to make one-fifth or even one-tenth of their current progress, thankfully.
After nearly two hours of non-stop work, the hard passage wall was finally opened. The excited Demolitionists rushed inside, but when they reached the next entrance, everyone was dumbfounded. It's not because these passages are full of Zerg marines, on the contrary, it's so empty and terrifying that not a single Zerg has seen it so far.
The reason why everyone was dumbfounded was that the passage inside was very narrow, the maximum diameter was only five meters, and the minimum number could not even reach three meters. Such a passage through the soldiers in the alloy armor was barely feasible, but it would be troublesome for the Xingtian Type 3 to pass through it, and they didn't even think about it.
The size of the Xingtian III has reached a terrifying fifteen meters, and the length of the fuselage of individual special models (command mecha, captain aircraft or reinforced models used for fire support on special occasions is mainly equipped with conventional troops, and the pioneer regiment is not equipped, and the equipment used by the vanguard regiment is customized) is even 18 to 20 meters high.
It's impossible to drive the mech through the narrow passages, let alone blast all the way through. The people of the demolition team tested the hardness of the passage materials inside, and compared to the materials of the outer passage walls, and the resistance of these materials to energy was even higher.
Through the analysis and inspection of the materials that make up the channel wall, it is found that it contains a large amount of TSP (tetraselenium metatritium), an associated ore of energy crystal, which only exists in trace amounts in a small number of high-purity B-grade energy veins, and has a short half-life and will disappear soon.
This mineral has a high resistance to energy, and the alloy smelted by TSP is an important material for many sixth-level civilizations to make high-strength special warship armor, and its energy resistance effect increases with the increase of TSP content, and can even achieve the effect of charging alloy at the highest.
Although the content of TSP is very scarce, it is too simple to accumulate some core areas for building the Zerg brood nest when the Zerg have spread countless star systems and devoured countless mineral planets. It is very difficult to expand the opening through blasting in such a passage. Of course, it's okay to use space weapons. But the problem is that as soon as the space weapon is launched, everything inside the brood will be destroyed, and the battle plan can be declared over.
This is a typical rat thrower, and the only way now is for everyone to come out of the mecha, wear an alloy armor, and enter the passage with an energy rifle to fight a hard-fought "tunnel battle" with the Zerg. However, the remaining combat strength of the soldiers who left the Xingtian Type III was completely unknown.
This is the problem in front of everyone, and the passage ahead is obviously a trap, a slaughterhouse specially created to trap and kill the enemy. This is not the first time they have seen such an internal structure, in fact, there is also such a design in the large warships of the Golden Crow fleet.
Since the confrontation with the interstellar police fleet, there has been a honeycomb zone several kilometers thick between the starport and the space inside the newly built large destroyer class, and all the passages in it are no more than three meters in diameter, in order to prevent the enemy's large combat vehicles from infiltrating. In the passage, there are countless sentinel cannons of various types and death traps with various tricks, and those who do not have access to enter rashly enter are definitely dead and alive.
It was precisely because he was familiar with the horrors of this section that Cheng Aiguo did not order the soldiers to rush in. The passage in front of you is five meters in diameter, but what about the inside? Who can be sure that it's not a meter or even half a meter? Such a passage is a hostile combat environment for humans, but not necessarily for the Zerg.
The queen can design a Zerg fighter that is fully adapted to the combat environment in the passage to block the attack of the vanguard group, such as a snake-like combat soldier, or a small bug that can be freely combined, or a bomb bug that is completely aimed at suicide attacks, just like the octopus missile growing in the willow leaf ship.
After careful statistics, the number of soldiers gathered under Cheng Aiguo's command has reached more than 40,000 people in the three terrifying combat battalions. This is definitely a very powerful combat force since the establishment of the Pioneer Regiment, especially after these soldiers are all equipped with Xingtian Type III. However, with 40,000 soldiers wearing alloy armor, armed with energy rifles and individual energy cannons, Cheng Aiguo asked himself that he was not sure of victory.
"Commander, what are we going to do? Do you want to give the order for the soldiers to assemble and attack lightly? After carefully estimating, Li asked uncertainly.
"Attack your size! The order went down, everyone lined up in several lines around the passage wall, and the small-caliber space cannon on the mecha began to charge, and we ...... Wait! Cheng Aiguo frowned and ordered.
"Wait......?!!? What are you waiting for? Lee was puzzled by the raise.
"Why do you ask so much? You'll know when the time comes, carry out the order! Cheng Aiguo said impatiently.
"Yes!"
"Does it really work?" Through the command link, Cheng Aiguo's whispered voice reached Li Jiaxin's ears.
The order was quickly issued, and the soldiers who received the order stood in the inner wall of the passage according to a specific orientation, forming a huge circle, and all the small space cannons of all began to store energy, pointing the muzzles of the cannons on the ground of the passage. It is certain that if the cannon is fired, the hard ground beneath your feet and the space here will be shattered. And the core of the brood will also be difficult to preserve.
The circular formation of the soldiers is strictly calculated, in such a formation, the effect of the soldiers' artillery attack is like standing on a slice of the sphere to attack the center of the ball, and each artillery fire will eventually attack the core of the brood, it is conceivable that once the attack begins, it will be difficult for the queen to escape this blow.
"There's movement!" Fifteen minutes later, a swishing sound came from the depths of the passage, and No. 121, who was in charge of monitoring, immediately transmitted the result to Li Jiaxin. In the depths of the passage, a triangular head slowly stretched out, followed by a long body, which looked like an ancient python, but its solid metal armor and the continuous spitting of the slurry cannon revealed its true face, a serpentine Zerg marine.
On his back, the image of an intelligent creature appeared in front of Lee's salary.
"Buzzing ......" Seeing this figure, Li Jiaxin felt that his head suddenly buzzed, and it was blank...... (To be continued.) )
