Walk alone in the abyss

Yang Ming and Po Suo each entered the medical cabin, and the Dongfeng was escorted by hundreds of imperial warships, and began to support the frontal battlefield.

At this time, it has nothing to do with how much discussion their fighting video has caused on the domestic and overseas networks.

Now that they have agreed to Li's request and are going to the frontal battlefield as bait, they must now recover to their best condition as quickly as possible to deal with the 'big queen's attack' that may come at any time.

Yang Ming is really curious about the ultimate weapon of the empire.

Relatively speaking, he still has a doubt.

He has issued an order to Bligh before, and he wants to drag Bligh to his side to participate in the battle together. He has the "strongest general reformer" Gris on the left and the "asexual angel" Bligh on the right. His main focus is a A sense of security after exhaustion.

But Bligh never appeared on the battlefield.

Yang Ming fell asleep in a daze, forgetting all these thoughts.

He wasn't really worried about his situation.

Law has been watching here, and if there is any danger, the device hanging in his ear will immediately send out an alarm.

What's more, Yang Ming has perfectly pulled up the tiger flag given by the Faya people.

Even if the Sherman Empire wanted to move him, they had to carefully weigh his current 'net worth'.

...

Three galactic hours later.

On the route of the Dongfeng, near an administrative star named Guilan not far from the airspace where the frontal battlefield is located, Revel, the second-to-last youngest hereditary earl of the empire, is not happy at all now.

He is going to kill the enemy head-on!

He has appealed to the military headquarters twelve times in a row, but all he got was reprimanded!

Now, he is the commander-in-chief of a joint fleet of noble private armies, in charge of 1,600 ships of various types, most of which are old-fashioned ships.

The guards of Star Saka are also here. Those well-equipped warships with unimpeded performance make Reville envious in every way.

As long as the military department agrees to let him lead the crowd to rush up, he will definitely form a fire formation around the escort of Saka with the entire fleet.

The young commanders of the Saka Star Guard also left a deep impression on Reville.

It's a pity that the feedback given to him by the military department is always eight words:

Hold your position and wait for orders.

Revell also understands that compared to the regular imperial army, the combat effectiveness of noble private soldiers is really not good enough.

Their task at the moment is to protect the safety of the right rear of the main battlefield, always pay attention to whether there will be bugs in the nearby star field, and protect one of the twelve supply channels of the empire.

The Earl sat on the command chair with his chin resting on his back. Although he was a little unmotivated, he still carefully reviewed the pieces of data that slid past in front of him.

Feedback from various monitoring ships is normal.

The nearby administrative planets are relatively densely populated, and most of the people have moved to underground shelters. The dense orbital guns deployed on the outer layer of the planet also have good firepower.

Revell grabbed the refreshing drink on the side and took a sip, frowning and asked, "How's the front line going?"

Immediately, a staff officer sent by the military department came forward and reported:

"My lord, sporadic battles have continued, but they are not as scary as when the hordes of main bugs came, and our defenses have once again stabilized.

"The bugs seem to want to devour our main army, and then head towards the Emperor Star.

"You don't have to be too nervous. If we suffer from pests here, the Emperor Guard system will take over the fleet immediately."

"The Imperial Guard system is always an artificial intelligence," Revell sighed, "We still have to put people first, otherwise it's easy to brew another disaster."

The staff officer laughed: "If it weren't for the Imperial Guard system, we might have had gaps in the defense line when the first batch of main bug swarms came. The Imperial Guard system would allow us to use all our firepower With its due effect, the increase in the combat power of the fleet can reach more than 70%, especially in the current situation where tens of thousands of ships are crowded together."

Revel asked, "Is there any news about my idol?"

"The second battlefield has achieved great success, and even 2,000 to 3,000 fireships can be dispatched to support the main battlefield."

The staff officer was slightly hesitant, but decided to speak.

The people here are all human beings, and there will never be any spies of bugs.

The staff officer said slowly: "According to the news from the military department, Major General Hanton and his partner Valkyrie will arrive near the frontal battlefield in the next few galaxy hours."

"Um?"

Revell's eyes lit up: "Are they going to pass by here?"

"It should be," the staff officer said with a smile. "The news was passed on in some military exchange group chats, because with the Emperor Guard system, everyone is quite free."

"Then can I meet with him?" Reville asked, "Or, let you take command of this place, and I will lead my elite squad to follow. I can help a lot. Treat me as a captain, a fleet Commander, even, I can go to the machine armor, I have been training for several years!"

The staff officer showed a helpless expression: "You...you are the commander, and more than a thousand ships here are at your disposal, Lord Earl, you must put away these willful words, which will have a certain impact on morale. "

"Okay...huh? Why did the warning light come on?"

Revel frowned slightly.

The staff officer subconsciously glanced at the main control console, and he was still saying: "You will never do something to attract my attention and then rush out suddenly... Really lit up?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the piercing siren sounded suddenly.

The flagship where Revell was on, together with the nearby warships, sounded ear-piercing warning sounds.

"Detector 45922 has detected anomalous points of gravity in space!"

"Three abnormal points!"

"Insect path is forming! Warning! Insect path is forming! No. 1 worm path is directly in front of our department, and No. 2 worm path is directly behind our department! No. 3 worm path... The coordinates of No. 3 worm path, Yu Guilanxing The space coordinates at this moment overlap! It’s outside Guilanxing’s atmosphere!”

"What?"

Revel stood up abruptly.

Return to the Blue Star periphery?

"Can worms ignore the influence of planetary gravity to create worm paths?"

"It's not surprising that the great queen who is about to ascend the dimension has any means."

"Why are you here?" The staff officer frowned tightly, "Count, please immediately announce that the whole ship is ready for battle! The situation here has been automatically reported to the military headquarters!"

"You don't need to remind me!"

Reville jumped onto the podium with a stride, tapped the three buttons in front of him, took a deep breath, and said in a fixed voice:

"Everyone! Please cheer up!

"Space Zergs have appeared on Guilan Star, which is only ten minutes away from us, and a large number of space Zergs are about to emerge right in front of and behind us!

"Next, I will issue a transfer order!"

Revell took a deep breath and immediately said, "The first, third, and sixth formations... hello?"

He frowned and looked at the technician beside him: "Why am I disconnected?"

"Count, I didn't cut it off!"

Instruments around the flagship stuttered for a few milliseconds at the same time.

A line of writing suddenly appeared on the main screen at the side: The Imperial Total Defense System has taken over the fleet.

Immediately afterwards, the rays of light intersected, and the back of the girl with twin ponytails filled Reville's sight.

"Good mobilization."

Li's voice came to Reville's ears, and then, under the gaze of Reville's wide-eyed eyes, a little bit of fluorescent light flew out of her nails, and the communication machine at the command center began to issue orders crazily, and the main screen appeared After reading the map of the star field where the fleet is located, each ship has its own course planned.

The operators guarding the consoles of each battleship only need to follow the instructions that appear in front of their eyes and ears, press the button in front of them, and push the gear lever in their hands, and they don't need to do anything else.

Even if there is an operation error, it will be compensated by instructions from other consoles.

The imperial fleet began to fight within two seconds.

The 1,200 ships were divided into three, and a series of green light spots appeared on the edge of the screen.

That represented reinforcements rushing in from an adjacent defensive position.

Revell's tightly frowning brows gradually eased, and he suddenly relaxed.

Such an artificial intelligence command system is indeed a little bit more efficient than artificial intelligence.

But he still firmly believes that this kind of virtual neural network and artificial intelligence with learning ability can never replace human beings... right?

"Earl Revell," Li suddenly turned his head to look at Revell, "You are the most prestigious human being in this area, please issue disaster evacuation advice to the people returning to Blue Star, there are still about 30 million residents on the surface, please let them Stay as far away from insects as possible.”

"Uh, okay!"

Revell immediately responded, and a photo ball flew to the side, and the podium was built within ten seconds.

About two minutes later, Reville's images appeared everywhere on Guilanxing's surface.

Because the wormway chosen by the zerg was just above the densely populated main city of Guilan Star, many residents had already noticed the sudden hole in the sky.

Accompanied by Reville's fast-paced shouts, the panicked crowd began to look for a building that could save their lives.

From that oval hole, a pitch-black beetle tens of meters long slowly flew out, vibrating the extremely thin transparent wings on its back, and making a cooing sound from its mouth.

The picture seemed to freeze for a few seconds.

Immediately afterwards, the several-kilometer-diameter hollow was like an oil field blowout, and countless types of Zerg gushed out!

Above and below these bugs, two tiers of planetary railguns fire simultaneously!

On the surface, thousands of missiles dragged their fins and rushed towards the insect path.

Above the towering buildings on the ground, the combined protection system that extracted most of the city's energy began to shoot high-energy lasers into the sky.

Thanks to the wealth of Guilanxing, the defense system that the local government and the nobles and gentry spent a lot of money on has indeed played a certain role, and the insect swarm that had not yet had time to deploy was hit hard.

In particular, the first batch of bugs were mainly Tier 4 bugs, mixed with one-tenth of Tier 5 common bugs, which was indeed not enough to face the saturation attack of human firepower.

However, the cunning of the bugs and their understanding of human technology are fully demonstrated at this moment.

The first wave of missiles failed to destroy the insect path, and the firepower of the human side suffered a setback, and many planetary cannons needed to be filled with energy modules.

Thousands of adult insects with golden patterns on their carapaces suddenly appeared below the insect path.

Immediately afterwards, countless fifth-order adults surged out, filling half of the sky within half a minute.

Humanity's fire defense system is on the verge of collapse!

...

"Quick! Can you go faster!"

Peterson urged the operator on the side with a low growl.

"Captain! This is already the acceleration limit of our ship. We can't throw loads to increase the acceleration! The loads are energy and war supplies!"

Peterson stared and cursed: "You didn't see that planet will be swallowed by bugs soon!"

"Then you go!"

The operator had a strong relationship with the captain, so he stared back.

"That's not what I mean," Peterson sighed, "I mean, in the face of disaster, we should work together, keep in mind the teachings of the lord, and use our subjective initiative as much as possible to reduce casualties and property losses. , make the greatest contribution.”

"The whole set!"

The operator sat back in his seat, took a deep breath, and then began to adjust his combat readiness according to the instructions that kept popping up.

Peterson was pacing back and forth, his brain constantly popping up one wild idea after another, and then these ideas were always quickly culled by the laws of physics and the level of technology.

In the continuous screen projection on the side, several middle-aged officers whispered: "Peterson, you are the deputy commander-in-chief of your fleet. It is not good to lose your composure like this. You must set an example for the soldiers."

Peterson frowned and said, "Everyone is from the same planet, who doesn't know who's temper?"

"It's useless to be anxious. It will take us nine minutes at the fastest to reach the vicinity of Guilan Star. It will take at least half an hour to enter the atmosphere. Now the gravitational force of the stars and planets is already accelerating for us. You have to jump directly In the past?"

"Can we directly attack the insect path?"

"I'm afraid not," said an officer, "Captain Peterson, we understand that as a follower of the white ghost of the imperial hero, you have a lofty sense of mission in your heart, but now, we must follow the instructions from the command platform. "

"Yes Peterson, the mission of the military is to obey the command completely, look at you now, don't discredit the face of the great ghost."

Peterson laughed, crossed his arms, and carefully watched the various commands that appeared on the console.

He frowned and asked, "Then what can we do now?"

"Pray to the ghost, pray that the planetary defense system can delay the bugs, and pray that the underground shelter is well hidden."

"My lord is an atheist," Peterson shook his head. "We will make it in time, we will!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several projection screens popped up in front of his eyes.

Inside is the battle situation on Guilanxing.

The bugs have taken out the lower planetary defenses.

They have a clear purpose and merged into black torrents, hitting the ground at high altitude; like a huge tornado enlarged hundreds of times, and like a boundless disaster falling from the sky.

At this speed, they only need ten minutes to pounce on the surface city.

— thanks also to the strong drag produced by the atmosphere and the planet's magnetic field.

What made Peterson feel a little relieved was Guilanxing's shelter layout.

The shelter is actually far away from the main city, under a piece of ruins, and it is a multi-layer hierarchical structure, and it is also equipped with various weapons and equipment underneath.

This may last for a while.

"We must save them!" Peterson said gruffly.

...

Dongfeng, in the medical cabin.

The sound asleep Yang Ming suddenly opened his eyes when he heard the rhythmic 'di', 'di' sound.
