Chapter 769: D-Day

D-Day means Day of Attack in military terms.

The New Hope, the flagship of the eight ships, is leading the entire Eighth Fleet at the moment, and is in a state of stationary relative to the Snow Star in the universe 1.2 million kilometers away from the Snow Star.

In the headquarters of the flagship, the captain of the ship, Vice Admiral Xia Mingming, and his commanders were directing the landing operation.

Tomorrow Q is the biological son of Summer and Bai Ziying. He lost an arm and a leg in the Battle of Souls, and in order to develop a bioalloy prosthesis, he had to obtain the genetic files of his biological parents, so he learned that it was Summer's biological son.

Later, after determining the father-son relationship with Xia, he decided to change his father's surname to "Xia", and in order to avoid the word "Tian" in Xia's name, he changed his name to his current name Xia Mingming. However, his nickname is still Tomorrow or Little Q.

Therefore, in all the names of the surname Xia, there will be no "Tian" character, just to avoid it. Therefore, the name of summer is unique in the Ming household register, and there is no duplicate name.

At this moment, three hours before the start of the personnel landing operation, the soldiers assembled in the inner harbor of the military port did not know that the fleet had more important operations, and it was not that the leadership was not unprepared.

However, it is said that the Challenger is communicating with the flagship, and the Challenger is 100,000 kilometers away from the Snow Star at the moment, and has already arrived at the Snow Star Guard System "Snow Guard System". (Note)

"Chief, we are already approaching the Bug Star, and so far we have not encountered a Zerg attack," Commodore Lin Zhongfei, the captain of the Challenger, reported, "Please instruct." ”

There is a million kilometers between the flagship, the New Hope, and the Challenger, and they use traditional means of communication, so there is a three-second delay in the call. When Xia Mingchao heard this, it was already three seconds later.

Tomorrow said: "Continue to advance slowly to the Worm Star, release all the battleships, and prepare for the drone landing attack." ”

Seven seconds later, Lin Zhongfei replied: "Yes, chief!" ”

Tomorrow looked at the people in the headquarters and said, "Wait." ”

One of the colonels asked, "Chief, why can't you use weapons of mass destruction?" Just come and attack the ground, and everything will be over. ”

Tomorrow shook his head and said, "You really don't understand the core intentions?" ”

The core refers to the military group in the summer.

"What intentions?" The officers asked puzzled.

An officer said: "After occupying the Worm Star, we don't necessarily have to live on the planet, all we need is resources, so even if we destroy the entire planet, it won't have much impact on us." Why bother? ”

Tomorrow said: "Do you know about wormholes? And how was the civilization before the Snow Star destroyed? There must be clues to follow on this planet, and the reason why the core should be handled cautiously is to find out the root of the Zerg and the mystery of the wormhole. Do you understand? ”

Several people nodded.

Tomorrow smiled and said: "Every decision at the core is well thought out and has profound significance, not something you and I can speculate about." All we have to do is carry out the order with peace of mind! ”

While directing the landing operation tomorrow, quantum communication with the core headquarters of the Ming Dynasty is also underway, and the commander-in-chief in the connection is Lieutenant General Bai Ziying. And the summer was not in the headquarters because of something else.

Bai Ziying asked, "Little Q, what are you going to do?" ”

Tomorrow looked at the mother on the screen and said: "It's still according to the original plan, take a drone attack first, and then take a personnel landing operation." The warship is in front, and I have moved most of the non-combatants to the Star Fort, and I have the Star Fort, and I have strengthened the protection of the Star Fort. In doing so, the fleet may have to be stretched very long, and this length is about a million kilometers. ”

Bai Ziying nodded and said: "Now you are the commander-in-chief of the front line, you can think about everything yourself, the core meaning is that everything must be put first in the safety of the people, even if you can't take the insect star, you must protect more than 300 million people, understand?" ”

"Don't worry, chief." Said tomorrow.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zhongfei's report came from the front: "I have been attacked by the plasma insect swarm, please instruct!" ”

This is the report from three seconds ago, and tomorrow immediately said: "Immediately do a high-speed flight around the planet and maneuver to dodge!" Unleash all attack drones and reconnaissance drones. ”

Although the battleship is protected by a shield, once attacked, the shield consumes a huge amount of energy, and if there are too many attacks, the shield will break and the hull will be damaged. Therefore, maneuvering evasion is also necessary.

After issuing the order tomorrow, another order will be issued to the officials in the headquarters: "Order the two battle groups of the Endeavour and our flagship to speed up to the Snow Boundary Star, advance at a constant speed, and request that they reach a place of 200,000 kilometers above the surface in half an hour and then carry out a high-speed planetary orbit flight." Maneuver to dodge possible swarm attacks. ”

As soon as the order was given, the flagship New Hope began to accelerate immediately, and the forward ship Endeavour behind it also followed. These two battleships, one a flagship and the other a striker, were both large motherships that carried a large number of battleships and formed two battle groups.

After the flight, the order will be issued again tomorrow: "All other warships protect the interstellar fortress, all ships do a gradual spiral flight to the snow star, the speed is not too fast, keep it to 400,000 kilometers above the surface after half an hour, and then do a medium-speed planetary orbit flight."

"Challenger, what is your situation now, please answer!"

Through the footage sent back from the front, you can see countless plasma sprayed up from the surface of the Bug Star and shoot directly at the Challenger battle group, because the Challenger made a high-speed revolution flight due to the order received in advance, so it is difficult for the plasma that is not very fast to attack the ships in the battle group.

While the Challenger was flying at high speed, the entire Snow Star was also sprayed with a circle of plasma, which looked like a spinning top throwing out a circle of velvet threads from a distance.

"The attack distance of this plasma worm is really far enough!" Tomorrow said, "The range is actually 100,000 kilometers!" This also shows that their intelligence and reconnaissance capabilities are also very strong! ”

Being able to attack an enemy in space from a distance of 100,000 kilometers means that they will definitely be able to detect the entire fleet. So tomorrow he said, "We can't underestimate these beetles!" ”

Lin Zhongfei, the captain of the Challenger, replied: "Chief, the enemy's fire is very fierce, but I have released all the drones, and they are in the process of landing and landing." It's hard for us to get rid of the plasma attack of the bugs......"

Lin Zhongfei was talking, and suddenly the picture froze, and then the picture was frozen, and the sound was gone. This indicates that the connection is broken.

"Hey, Challenger, please call back!" After calling tomorrow and making sure that they couldn't get connected, he said, "We were disturbed by the signal of the Zerg, and ordered the Endeavour to go to the battlefield!" ”
