534 No fighting on the Western Front
Zade has fought a battle all his life, and he has never fought such a battle, the Gate of Fall is actually made of iron, six thousand warships attacked in turn, and in ten days, he only advanced more than 5,000 kilometers, and he didn't even open up a safe space folding area.
Landmines, mines everywhere. The four meteorite bases at the entrance of the Gate of Fall are the largest space mines with the largest targets, this kind of thing is actually no threat, as long as you can crush it with a salp of 10,000 cannons, and the most annoying thing is the steel sphere with a diameter of two or three meters.
This disgusting little guy can't look taller than a person, but in the vast universe, a metal object of this volume does not carry an echo on the radar, and an object of this mass belongs to the dust level under the definition of space science.
Don't look at this thing, but as long as he keeps his eyes on you, once the active engine is activated, all your auto-defense weapons won't be able to stop these little fly-like things at all. Just let him crash into your deck, and you'll understand what space mines are going to have to charge 90% of the total weight.
The power is large, the target is small, the cost is low and easy to put out, of course, the low cost is definitely the most attractive advantage for pirates, this kind of small thing is cheap 100,000 gold coins, even the most expensive model is only more than 400,000 gold, basically all pirates can afford this kind of assassination weapon.
Of course, Zade knew that the pirates would lay mines in the space passage, and he brought a hundred minesweepers with him on this expedition. These sophisticated special ships can easily detect the presence of mines, and each ship has sophisticated demining machinery to deal with the pirates' shoddy mines.
However, this Nima is too much, when the special radar of the minesweeper was turned on, he was surprised to find that the entire space channel was already white, full of mine echoes. This is no longer a single one, and it has become a pot of paste.
The madness of the pirates, they can be considered to have learned. But surprise to surprise, the work that should be done must also be done, and a hundred minesweepers began this difficult task.
There are too many, too many, the space channel is full of mines that have been actively detonated, the shock wave is like a gust of wind rampaging through the universe, each explosion will change the position of other mines, and the radar of the minesweeper must explore at maximum power.
It's too slow, it's too slow, it took a full 24 hours for the minesweeper to open up a safe passage of more than 200 kilometers, and even a capital battleship can't fit at this distance. Zaide was so angry that he had already smashed three crystal cups in a row, and the commander in front had already been scolded and bloody. But what can be done after scolding, the precision radars of several minesweepers have been burned, which shows the great power used, and it would be too unreasonable to say that they don't work hard.
It doesn't matter if it's just a little slower, the Primordial Fire Man clearly underestimated the madness of the pirates, and when the demining work was 36 hours underway, the crazy pirate dead launched a decisive attack.
From the depths of the space passage, two armed merchant ships suddenly folded out, and it was obvious that these two ships had the highest identification code of the mine array, and before they could rush over, the space mines had already begun to give way. Immediately after that, the cargo doors on both sides of the merchant ship were opened, and rows of murderous armored brawlers rushed out and rushed headlong at the minesweeper, which was working intensively.
It was impossible for the source fire man not to escort the minesweeper, and those fighters and brawlers were vigilantly looking at the surrounding space environment. The moment the pirates appeared, they immediately began to counterattack, but they didn't expect that when they approached these pirates, they found that this group of dead soldiers did not entangle with them at all, and rushed over regardless of life and death, even if the battle damage rate reached half, they would kill the minesweeper.
The two-handed heavy sword flashed coldly, the precision machinery that was cut down everywhere in space, and those engineers in space suits were scared to pee when they saw groups of wolf-like pirates. Although they are also soldiers, they are just engineers, and we can't get in touch with this kind of face-to-face cold weapon fighting scene.
Pirates don't care what the opponent is, all the enemies who stand in their way must be killed, and the opportunity is fleeting when the hatch of the minesweeper is about to close.
"Roll on...... Death ...... those who stand in my way" The Black Tower-like pirate turned his body into a cannonball, rampage all the way, and broke in the moment when the hatch was about to close.
This is the end of the minesweeper, don't look at the only one fighter who rushed in, but it was a mortal soldier, and his mission was to exchange his life for the reversal of the tide of battle. At this time, the minesweeper suddenly shook violently, and many deck joints even shone brightly, and three minutes later, the entire spacecraft suddenly inflated like a balloon, and exploded and disintegrated in an instant.
A pirate brawler killed a minesweeper, and six more were killed by the brawler at about the same time. The craziest thing is that the two pirate armed merchant ships actually picked a target and hit it head-on, and that kind of indomitable momentum made all the Yuanhuo soldiers present stunned.
Two armed merchant ships slammed into the two minesweepers, and the eyes of the two violent explosions pierced people's eyes, and the Yuanhuo soldiers who were too close to the explosion site were even torn apart by the violent shock wave.
In just twenty minutes of raiding, eight minesweepers turned into dust in space, and the pirates paid for two merchant ships and three hundred mortal soldiers.
When it was all over, in a corner of space, the twelve remaining pirate fighters gathered together, and in front of them were more than five hundred angry source fire fighters, and it seemed that they would rush forward and chop up the dozen survivors alive when they were given an order.
The pirates did not have the slightest fear, and they even stared at the enemies who surrounded them with mocking eyes, and one of the leaders even opened the communication channel and took the initiative to establish contact with the source fire soldiers.
"Hey, buddy, how does it feel to mess with Zayd? Look at your hard work, are you trying to be a commoner? Are the meat and bones that Zade rewarded you delicious......"
"Hahaha, that's it, it's cool enough to be a slave, isn't it? When you are a minion, you are still addicted, a bunch of mud ...... that can't hold up the wall."
"We are pirates, but we are at least a decent person, and you are all a bunch of mud......dy people who have been trampled underfoot."
What is the natural attribute of a pirate? It is not a seafaring skill, but an innate poisonous tongue skill, and every sarcasm can always be directed at the hearts of the people, piercing the dignity of the source fire soldier to the skin.
There was really something that couldn't bear it, and a junior officer-like fighter at the head jumped out and scolded, "Shut up, Lao Tzu is a nobleman, and our ancestors have been noble nobles for three generations...... Your whole family is a slave, and your ancestors have been slaves for eight generations......"
Of course, the officer scolded the pirate, but he was really negligent, he forgot that he still had a group of fighters under his command who were all slaves, and now they are desperately accumulating military merits to change their civilian status. His scolding directly swept away the faces of his subordinates.
At that moment, the faces of dozens of Yuanhuo soldiers turned red, and they all clenched their fists and didn't dare to say anything.
Zaid, who was in the rear, had witnessed the sneak attack, and he had heard the pirates stirring up, and just as he was about to take them prisoner with a long sigh, suddenly the singing of twelve pirates came from the communication channel.
"Rise up, slaves of hunger and cold! Rise up, people who have suffered in the whole world! The blood is boiling, and we must fight for the truth! In the old world, the slaves will rise up, get up! Don't say that we have nothing, we must be the masters of the world! This is the struggle of the last generation, unite until tomorrow, and the greatest ideal must be realized......
It was the Internationale again, the song that stunned Zayde, and when the lyrics got into his head, his temples jumped up with a bang, "Kill them, slaughter them all for me......" The song finally disappeared as hundreds of heavy machine-gun dragons covered the pirates.
Life can disappear, but the thought is eternal, a thought is sometimes a seed, at a certain moment will sprout and grow, from the first day of the appearance of the Internationale, the heart of the Yuanhuo Expeditionary Force was pried open a small crack, this small crack now seems to be very small, but with the passage of time, he will pass from the military to the people, and then longer and wider.
Eventually, one day, the social structure of the Source Fire Empire will be torn apart by this rift.
The damage caused by this attack was almost negligible for the Source Fire Empire, after all, a few minesweepers were not worth much. However, this attack was a fatal blow to the morale of the army, and in the subsequent minesweeping progress, although another hundred minesweepers were transferred from the rear, the overall progress was still not much faster.
Under the control of this emotion, there were many accidents in the mine-sweeping work, and countless engineers died unjustly in space.
Zade was so mad that he actually ordered 3,000 warships to form a three-stage firing formation, and used the salvo of light energy naval guns to break a way. This time, although the progress has been accelerated, the fleet's energy bar inventory has suddenly begun to decline at an avalanche rate, and the logistics brigade has tripled its transportation volume at the end of the year, and it is not for Zaid's consumption.
Now the war has become an extremely boring cannibalization tactic, and every time a new energy bar arrives, the source fire fleet will come with a fierce salvo, and once the energy bar is about to run out, they will start busy clearing mines again. This is also mixed with the pirates' decisive counterattack.
No matter what the price Zad pays, one thing is certain, the soldiers of the Source Fire are encroaching forward little by little, and one day they will open a safe space folding area, and after the space is folded, will they still encounter a minefield? No one can say this clearly, after all, it is impossible for pirates to fill this entire space passage with mines.
Time has passed day by day, and many military commentators in the universe have begun to make boring remarks about 'no war on the Western Front', in their eyes, such a large-scale war, if you don't die 10,000 or 20,000 a day, it is the same as not fighting.
War may seem like a big drama to outsiders, but for the soldiers involved, it's hell. There are exceptions, though, and Wahid and Impermanence are now very moisturized.
Vahid took the battleship given to him by his father and began to cruise downstream along the meteorite river, this kid didn't know how to do it, he was so lucky, so many forks in the road, he actually rushed all the way down, every choice was correct, it seemed that it was only a matter of time before he found the bayonet headquarters.
The days of impermanence are also very relaxed, although it is very tiring to guide the way in the dark canopy, but it is also a good opportunity to exercise his divine sense, he has already run back and forth in the dark canopy for two consecutive years, and the journey has been smooth.
"Come on, cheers, this is a grape wine from 500 years ago, a wine that has been sleeping in space for 500 years, cheers......" This guy actually had the heart to move countless wines from the space garbage dump, and this day was so comfortable.
