Chapter 50: Operation "Devil's Amusement Park" (6)

Redstone Star.

With Yang Yi's order, Behemoth began to move towards the low-Earth orbit of Redstone. According to the agreed location, Behemoth moved as far as possible to the predetermined position in order to shorten the distance from the airdrop bag to the specified coordinates.

Since Behemoth was taken over by Yang Yi, without the addition of new air units, the remnants of the swarm air force in the universe were quickly wiped out by Black Rose. Naturally, the ships of the pirate group can also move freely. However, the orbital defense system composed of the spore turrets of the swarm on the ground, and a considerable part of the swarm air force hatched by the ground hive are still fighting with the human air force on the ground, so the environment in the atmosphere is not safe, not to mention, they have to try to seize some of the veins occupied by the swarm.

Under the "friendly sponsorship" of the worm mother, the reserves of crystal ore and high-energy gas in Behemoth's body are still quite rich. Enough for Behemoth to hatch a sizable swarm force in a week. And under the control of the command network, the control of this swarm force, which is independent of the Zerus swarm, is also guaranteed, although Yang Yi has always felt uneasy about these swarm forces after the incident with Black Rose.

It's a war between the swarm and the swarm. The only aid Yang Yi could provide was Black Rose. Black Rose was sent to provide fire support to Behemoth. The first is to tear a hole in the orbital defenses for the swarm.

The swarm itself is extremely lacking in orbital bombing capabilities, resulting in a lack of adequate response capabilities in the face of well-established orbital defense facilities. For example, the swarm in the game can only be stacked with constant airdrop sacs, trying to make a gap with the endless swarm. After all, it is impossible for the orbital defense facility to really intercept all the airdrop bags 100% - but here it may be necessary to say that the protagonist aura of the Queen of Blades, why was her airdrop bag not intercepted, it was really the protagonist's aura that was lucky to sit on the part of the airdrop bag that could not be intercepted......

However, with the Black Rose, the Black Rose can provide Behemoth with the firepower to open the way in advance, avoiding the loss of countless airdrop bags and troops when landing.

(Like in Worm Heart CG, Leviathan's direct entry into the planet's atmosphere will be beaten into fools by the ground defense system unless the ground orbital defense system is destroyed.) Look at that, it's still Keha there, and Keha is really undefended...... οΌ‰

The operation, code-named "The Begging Stick," began within three hours of Behemoth's arrival. Black Rose had already carried out a six-hour orbital bombardment, tearing a fire vacuum on the base of the swarm. Behemoth quickly airdropped his first troops into the area, including a significant number of jumping bugs, poisonous blasters, cockroaches, and stinging snakes, as well as a number of worker bees, as well as a queen bug who was responsible for directing and transmitting psionic signals.

The airdrop area is a predetermined crystal ore vein, where there is a third-level hive, which is responsible for collecting the minerals collected by the worker bees, and then the worker bees will transport them back to the second-level main nest for unified storage or consumption.

The third-level hive is the most basic swarm main nest, and the worms responsible for controlling this hive can only hatch some basic swarm units - that is, the units included in the batch of troops that Behemoth airdropped in advance.

This batch of airdropped troops was mainly intended to consume the guard units on the ground. Unlike the Level 3 hive, Behemoth has the highest level of hatching privileges, and it also retains a complete gene pool of insect colonies. From the Brood War period to the current Brood Swarm's gene pool, she has enough hatchery to produce it.

As a result, the second batch of units will become infected, lurkers, and swarm hosts. After clearing a large enough landing zone on the ground, the third batch will directly drop heavy ground assault units such as Thunderbeasts.

The advantage of low-level units is that the production is fast, the consumption is low, and the size is also small, which is suitable for the first batch of landings with the enemy to consume, and seize a larger landing area, if the first batch of thunder beasts are directly released, one is that the landing area may not be so big, and it is impossible to put down such a large volume of thunder beasts, and a unit like thunder beasts will be very cost-effective even for the swarm, and it will be very cost-effective to die at will, and moreover, it is common sense to preserve key reserve forces.

Of course, if the battle situation is unfavorable, it is not undesirable to directly put high-level units, but the worm mother needs to be mentally prepared to bear large casualties.

The airdrop bag broke through the atmosphere, and the tentacles behind it were constantly shaken by the hunting wind in the atmosphere, and swooped down on the red hell on the surface, and then smashed heavily on the cracked crimson earth under the fierce attack of the insect swarm. The swarm quickly emerged from the ruptured and decaying airdrop bag and began to attack the swarm inside the hive.

The people on the Hubelian were silent for a long time as they looked at the swarm of insects in the midst of the civil war.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Is this what they call reassuring? Renault asked aloud as he looked at the swarms of insects on the screen that were fighting each other.

"It should be." Ma nodded and said, "At least, if it were a swarm controlled by Kerrigan, it would be impossible for these swarms to fight each other. Maybe...... And they really succeeded. ”

"Success?" Renaud snorted, "Hmph, I don't believe that Kerrigan would just watch the swarm under his control be taken away by someone else, like I said, they are playing with fire." ”

"But at least they haven't brought in Kerrigan until now." Matt shook his head and said, "If they do succeed, then this could be a breakthrough." The swarm has been threatening the sector for years, and maybe this is the way to end this......"

"It's that simple." Renault denied Matt's naΓ―ve idea, "Not to mention whether Kerrigan will sit idly by, Char's swarm alone is busy enough." Just because you happen to be successful doesn't mean it's universal. ”

Renault didn't believe in Behemoth from the bottom of his heart, not that he was pessimistic, he had seen too many examples of failure over the years. There is no shortage of arrogant people who try to challenge this principle, and they all end up losing themselves. That is, the empire has this economic and military strength, and it also has the population that can afford it, and there is still a lot of research on alien insects that continues.

Matt understands Renault's thoughts, but as an idealistic fighter, he prefers to choose to believe that this method has a reliable success rate - of course, as long as the prerequisites are hit, this method is 100% successful, the only problem is that these Behemoths have to be loyal to Yang Yi, neither Renault nor the Empire can agree, who can guarantee that Yang Yi will not become the next Queen of Blades?

At the same time as the conversation, the first group of troops had already suffered more than half of the casualties, and under the heavy attrition, the second group of troops also broke through the atmosphere and headed towards the surface.
