Chapter 411: The Battle Behind the Battle
When they were on the KG-03 Mining Star, the Blackclaw Monsters once used underground raid tactics with the cooperation of the giant scorpion monster to catch the Hand of God mercenary group by surprise, if it weren't for the little princess of the mercenary group, the transformed human girl Lamia, who was very powerful, and Zhao Fan commanded Luo Li to use the transformation fighter to rescue in time, the Hand of God mercenary group was almost wiped out because of this.
Today, in the battle against the New Apennines, the Blackclaws are doing their tricks again.
However, Sister Mao has long been prepared for this, and the geological detectors that are working on the defense line are her early warning devices for this tactic of the enemy.
Although she didn't have a lot of geoprobes on hand because of time, it was more than enough to defend this defensive line less than eighteen kilometers long.
At the same time, in order to prevent the enemy from directly crossing the defense line to attack the hinterland of the New Apennine Peninsula, Sister Mao also sent out all the reconnaissance robots in the fleet, creating an early warning network throughout the entire New Apennine Peninsula.
So she was the first to detect the enemy's movements underground.
Soon after, not far behind the line of defense, which was less than eighteen kilometers long, dozens of potholes appeared.
The Blackclaws did not intend to attack the heart of the New Apennines directly, they wanted to break through this line of defense and destroy the enemy in front of them.
However, before the giant scorpion monsters responsible for digging the holes could burrow into the ground, the main guns of dozens of warships in the sky opened fire on these holes at the same time.
The scorpions' heavy, shells were as fragile as paper shells in front of the powerful guns, and the creatures that were desperately arching to the ground could not stop this terrifying weapon that could penetrate even the armor of a battleship.
The potholes could not withstand such an attack. It's just a collapse.
Dozens of craters soon fell silent in the dust kicked up by the explosion.
This scene drew earth-shattering applause - this battle. Sister Mao was instructed by Zhao Fan. It was broadcast not only to the 13th Independent Fleet in real time, but also to the network around the world.
For the 13th Independent Fleet, this is a bitter battle, but it is also an excellent war show, a war show that can make people fully realize that the commercial consortium and the 13th Independent Fleet came to New Rome to save people, and even fought to the death with monsters for it, rather than a war show with some other bad intentions.
I want to be recognized. It's not enough to just talk about it, you have to take practical actions!
The 13th Independent Fleet wants to use this battle to announce to the world that the 13th Independent Fleet is on the same front as everyone!
We are not as terrible as the legend says!
We are fighting such an uphill battle against terrible monsters in order to protect people's lives!
Even if it's an artificial intelligence, even if it's a robot, it can fight for humans! ――
Business consortiums. Freedom Alliance, Holy Galactic Empire. Countless people sat in front of the intelligent terminals, silently paying attention to this fierce battle that has never been seen in human history.
Monster and machine battles.
Both sides are fighting for humanity, but the monsters are for destruction, and the machines are for salvation.
It is a very ironic fact that neither side is human, but it is all made by humans themselves.
At this moment, watching the battle become more and more intense, most people couldn't help but have such a thought in their hearts - what kind of situation would it be if it was not the machine army of the Thirteenth Independent Fleet that faced these monsters at this time, but an ordinary human army?
The thought sends chills down the spine.
So many people began to rejoice, rejoicing in the existence of the 13th Independent Fleet, and should be fortunate that such a force was on the side of justice.
There are also many people who are angry about this.
Artificial intelligence is fighting hard for humanity, what about the human army?
What are the human armies doing?
From the broadcast, everyone can see that the only human army that has appeared in this war so far is just a small group of defeated remnants of the local garrison of New Rome that has been contained by the robots!
Wasn't that provisional government of the Holy Galactic Empire also sent a fleet to New Rome? Why didn't they intervene in this fight?
On the Internet, more and more people are asking such questions.
"These fools!"
In the new Huaxia Galaxy, the new Chang'an Star, the headquarters of the Provisional Government of the Holy Galactic Empire, the new Emperor of the Empire, Anthony. Severus was scolding without grace.
His Majesty the Young Emperor was angry, and he had the urge to flip the table at this time, because he suddenly found that he had been yin!
Those bastards of the 13th Independent Fleet dared to stir up public opinion on the Internet and destroy the glorious image of him, the new emperor and the provisional government of the empire!
What made him even more angry was that the decision to sit idly by and watch this battle was not made by him, in fact, this decision had nothing to do with him at all, this decision was McKinley's arbitrary!
Strictly speaking, including the battle that is taking place at this time, it is actually caused by McKinley!
However, now it is His Majesty Anthony and his Provisional Government who are responsible for the black pot!
Looking at the texts and videos on the Internet denouncing himself and the Provisional Government of the Empire, Anthony was depressed, he was a typical generational experience.
In fact, Anthony is not unable to understand McKinley's approach.
McKinley made it clear to him at the time that the Thirteenth Independence Fleet had sent itself to the door to show the world how terrifying the biological weapons developed by the organization were!
In fact, McKinley and Anthony originally had a similar plan, to show the strength of the organization and the horror of the Blackclaw by broadcasting a battle with the Blackclaw in real time, but such a battle of course requires sacrifice, and it is of course better to be able to sacrifice someone else's army instead of your own army.
Cultivating qualified and obedient soldiers, manufacturing warships, warplanes and all kinds of weapons and equipment all cost money, it takes time, and it is always good to save a little.
And McKinley also plans to use this battle to test the color of the 13th Separate Fleet, and by the way, give the other side a little color.
Anthony himself thought so, that Thirteenth Separate Fleet was so annoying.
So when McKinley asked him to stand still, he agreed without much thought, anyway, the excuse was ready-made, to protect the safety of the continent surrounded by the sea and the people on it.
But looking back now, Anthony found that neither McKinley nor himself had underestimated the Thirteenth Separate Fleet!
The other party is playing a trick!
actually stirred up public opinion on the Internet!
All of a sudden, the situation became very passive!
