Chapter 21: The Zerg War

The Zerg War is a mode of struggle that transcends all previous wars on the evolutionary path of mankind. There is no contact between the Terrans and the Zerg, there is no possibility of compromise and coexistence, the sole purpose of the existence of the Zerg Brood seems to be to exterminate, destroy all creatures in its path, and humans are forced to put everything into it to survive by war.

The scale of this war is far beyond the previous history of mankind, from the South Pole to the North Pole, from the surface to the outer sky, the entire surface of the earth to the inner circle of the atmosphere, almost one-sixth of the earth's area is a battlefield. The vast majority of military units are air forces, numbering in the millions, and the combat in the air with regiment-level fighters far exceeds the previous experience of human air combat, compared with this, the largest air combat in the history of mankind is just a child.

This is a new combat mode, the battlefield is three-dimensional, only the difference between altitude and latitude, from the troposphere to the ionosphere, there are flying objects everywhere, countless aerial combat battlefields, the surface of the ground except missiles and land-based artillery fire, can not help anything.

The Zerg War forced the evolution of human aerospace technology and air force tactics for three to four generations in just a few years, and the quantity and quality were qualitatively improved, so that they could survive in a war of this scale.

The mobilization mechanism, logistics mechanism, reserve personnel training and replenishment mechanism of mankind have undergone revolutionary changes, and the combat at the level of the air corps requires data and radar technology, communications, electronics, and intelligent UAV automation and cooperative operations that were unimaginable to mankind a few years ago...... In just a few years of human warfare, countless new technologies have been introduced to the battlefield, and the efficiency of human air swarm operations alone has been thousands of times greater than that of previous technological conditions.

It can be said that from 2016 to 2020, the combat ability and scale of human beings have evolved to at least 100 million times that of the past, and the evolution speed of the Zerg has reached a level of equivalence.

The evolution and adaptation of the Zerg, each increase in strength is directly proportional to the military combat ability of human beings, and the Zerg War has only been fought for many years.

War has forced humanity to adapt to this rapid change. With new technology, new combat environmental conditions, new strategic thinking, and the military input of the whole whole society, the earth has become a complete military empire.

All of this was brought to humans by the Zerg.

On the battlefield now, under the fierce attrition of the war, hundreds of millions of combat units work together, and not only the two sides of the war have suffered losses. Hundreds of millions of people killed and injured are just normal. It also causes a myriad of incalculable cascading effects: an increase in the temperature of the ball. The melting of the ice in the Arctic and Antarctic and the violent disturbance of the earth's atmosphere have completely lost the order of the entire earth's environment and climate, and the original normal atmospheric circulation has also completely lost its daily routine. The battlefield in the sky was filled with irregular thunder and lightning. Torrential rain and strong winds, in several areas where the fighting was most intense, the weather changed abnormally, and it almost became a dead zone. However, neither the Zerg nor the Terrans had time to take care of this additional interference, and they had to devote themselves to it.

In this new hysterical mode of warfare, all military tactics have become useless, and every unit thrown into it on the battlefield will be consumed in an instant. There is no such thing as an advantage or disadvantage. Viewed from the perspective of the entire battlefield, the scale of the war is so great that the outcome of a local war can never affect the overall situation. The only thing that humans can do is to put their troops into it layer by bit under the pressure of the Zerg, and fight with the Zerg. This kind of war. Logistics efficiency is the most critical element of war, and until one of the two sides is exhausted, the war will never end.

For the front-line battlefield, the soldiers face death and cannon fodder every moment, and for the commander in the rear, every moment he sees the casualty statistics of the soldiers in his hand and looks at the death list that has been swiped on the screen, which can make any sentimental person here can only become cold and hard, even more cold.

But, there is no way, this is the Zerg War!

――――――――――

"Report, Sector C13 is soliciting reserve support, and Commander Reinhardt has only two corps left at his disposal." Carter heard a staff officer come up to report.

When Carter heard this, he hurriedly called up the tactical sketch of the C13 area, but no, on the holographic display table, the green light point representing our side has been narrowed and only a small group remains, and the red of the Zerg is everywhere around, Carter gestured on the information table, and the situation switched to the battlefield live, you can see the rear of the battlefield, under the cover of the Zerg Wyvern, hundreds of Zerg lords have lowered their altitude and are ready to land.

"Quick, tactical analysis!" Carter Express,

The tactical staff officer of the 13th District received an order to hurriedly input the parameters of the current battle situation into the computer's decision-making auxiliary analysis program, and after a few minutes of operation, the result was called up.

"Analysis Report D1324:

According to the analysis of the situation in the 13th region and the two adjacent theaters, the results are extremely dangerous!

Recommendation: Immediately send additional corps-level troops to support, otherwise, the sector is likely to lead to a systematic collapse of several adjacent theaters......

Notes: Fire support should be used to alleviate the crisis situation before additional support is dispatched to prevent rescue from being ......

Carter saw it and groaned, "Well, prepare for support!" According to the reference, let Johansen support it. Carter shouted, "Use special bombs first to help Reinhardt relieve the pressure!" ”

"Yes!"

The staff officer passed the order down.

Carter had just come to his senses, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he couldn't bear the pressure anymore.

The war has just started less than an hour, as the commander-in-chief, he has lost one-third of his troops, that is a full 300,000 well-trained air force backbone combatants, no way, the practice of the Zerg battle is to try to deploy as many troops as possible in the first time, expand the strike area, and strive to break the enemy in one fell swoop, therefore, in the first wave of human beings face the greatest threat, and the most losses, in this kind of pure war of attrition, the commander in the first hour before the start of the war is also the heaviest. Almost every minute, there is a feeling that I can't hold on.

In front of Carter, there were constant warnings from different war zones, red and yellow warning documents, swiping the entire screen, and there were enough 300 tactical staff officers who were constantly serving Carter in order to command this complicated battle situation. As a decision-maker, even with the help of people and intelligence, it can be overwhelming.

The pressure is too great, and Carter has the entire human race on his shoulders!
