A Will Eternal Chapter 1058
From the perspective of war, things like Zongsla are actually just a novelty and novelty, and they are not suitable for war in themselves.
It's just a weird country like the foot basin, calling for some decisive weapons, and will make some similar designs, which are neither awkward nor embarrassing, and don't know how to connect and cooperate with other arms.
For a war machine that emphasizes coordination, unity, and tight connection of components, such super-sized components are destined to be short-lived.
The Queen of Blades is also rich and self-willed, so she made such a thing like a mad dog running around in the central square area of the city.
There are also strange weapons such as biological heat ray cannons and biological acid missiles, which can shake out a bunch of life-limited knife-toothed insects like lice, and bite like mad dogs, looking stupid and vicious.
Of course, this Zongsila has more weapons than these, but the others are nothing special, like the scythe pincers, and the mammoth can play superbly. It is just an enlarged version, but it looks a bit stupid.
There is also the tail needle, one needle down, piercing through the tank can also poke and explode, but this design is still a bit thankless, after all, weapons are generally powerful enough, rather than blindly pursuing strength, and Zongsila is not Going to play bumper cars with battleships, the tail needle has a large surplus of attack power, except that when attacking, the audio-visual effects are even better, what practical effect does it have?
Zhao Wenrui hid in a building and observed Chongsila for a while. In the end, he did not choose the nuclear mushroom, but killed Chongsila with a special sniper rifle.
This sniper rifle is more like a speargun, and it shoots a bolt-like warhead, a bolt made entirely of nanoworms.
This shot, in itself, is tantamount to tickling Chong Silla.
But the nanites go to their heart like snakes.
Although Chessla has three strong and powerful hearts, many may not be effective. In the end, under the action of nanoworms, the three powerful hearts have a heart attack, and Chessla died of cerebral hemorrhage.
After a while, Zongsila stood up again, but his behavior changed from wild and unruly to feminine and secretive.
The nanites have managed to control it and are undergoing a degree of specialization. Wait until Jim Reynolds launches the Southwest Joint Assault Operation. This guy can push on the ground and attract firepower. Anyway, the skin is rough and the flesh is thick. Although the swarm has no shortage of butchers, it is not right to want to chop this big guy into pieces for a while. easy job.
After solving Zongsila, Zhao Wenrui led people to sneak around the buildings around the square. There were indeed survivors, and there were two combat groups with 16 security personnel from the Moebius Foundation.
It was a pleasant surprise.
Going back to rest for a while, the number of puppets he can deploy has once again exceeded the 100-person mark.
And the number of survivors rescued back and forth has exceeded 10,000.
He discussed it with Jim Reynolds, sooner rather than later, these survivors are not safe here, but they may also be hidden dangers, so take the opportunity to sell them for a good price.
So he contacted the commander of the 20th Fleet, and first gave a batch of iron belly battle records, saying that he did what he said, and he was unambiguous when he said that he would give first-hand information.
Then I asked the commander if you want performance. Now there are a lot of fresh refugees and personnel from the Mobius Foundation that can be used to deepen the relationship with the always aloof foundation.
The Commander wavered.
So Zhao Wenrui took the opportunity to make a move, earn money, and send a ship to pick up people. Speed is the benefit, and delay makes changes. If there are many sellers, it may not necessarily be the Twentieth Fleet.
The deal was done quickly, and Jim Raynor was delighted to see the eight-figure cash in his account.
The key is that Zhao Wenrui also contacted the Moebius Foundation. A large number of detailed audio-visual materials proved that Renault's rangers did a good job. The data and personnel were searched thoroughly. Now there is only one large area that has not been settled.
In order to be on the safe side, the personnel were all handed over to the 20th Fleet and withdrew from the battlefield far away, so remember to spend money. If you want a horse to run, you have to graze it. This is an unbreakable truth. The Mobius Foundation must understand the secret of this.
The trick is to play money. The Moebius Foundation also invested money. After all, if you do any calculations, the Renault Rangers have really invested a lot (Iron Belly is also a Ranger), and the results are also outstanding. The cleaning is fast enough and the bugs killed are enough. Many, the places I searched are cleaner than those I licked, and I am very dedicated.
So another eight-figure account was entered, and Jim Raynor's breathing was much rougher.
Tex Finley murmured: "It turns out that you can make so much money frankly. The deals I talked about before are all cheated."
"Don't underestimate yourself, what kind of money do you get, what kind of cards are the Rangers now? Is there any organization that has dozens of ships to carry out missions at every turn? So you have the cards to ask for a higher price, just a few light infantry, that is It is impossible to ask for an eight-figure price for a diamond-encrusted one."
With Zhao Wenrui's explanation, Jim Raynor and Tex Finley also understood that mercenaries and mercenaries can't get the same amount of money. Confidence, once said, this is an army, not a few desperadoes.
"Horton, here is a big portion for you." Jim Raynor also knew how to spend money.
"I took the love. I really want to make money. It's not bad. You have to buy some retirement insurance for Swan and the others. You can't follow you to fight to the death. It didn't end. So there are still many places to use the money. Splash a few times It’s gone, tight earning is not enough to spend slowly. Well, let’s not talk nonsense, work, the boss is happy to send money, we have to take care of others, this is called professional ethics.”
"Well, if it's just killing bugs, we're very ethical." Jim Raynor was full of energy.
The ships of the Twentieth Fleet arrived and took the refugees away.
The crowded temporary base was immediately cleared.
Under the command of Zhao Wenrui, the rangers who had successfully lightened their load began to pack in an orderly manner, preparing for the evacuation.
The Hyperion is in space orbit, while Galactica is in the sky, and the regional air supremacy has always been firmly in the hands of the Rangers. This is also the basis for the Iron Belly and other fleets to dare to form a team to save people, otherwise there is no need for the heavy-duty swarm When an empty unit enters the field, a team of flying mantis can make the fleet call daddy. After all, it is only a hard belly and has a high tolerance to blows from the ground.
While the fleet was preparing for the southwest raid, Zhao Wenrui adjusted the scattered commanding heights, established a defense line for the southwest channel, and concentrated his forces.
Accurate shooters are over 300.
Zhao Wenrui made a decisive decision and changed an iron belly into an iron barrel boat. A large number of side shooting windows, up to five floors, were opened to facilitate accurate shooters to fire their guns.
He has already figured it out. When the time comes, he will stick to the same boat at a low altitude. It will be an excellent shooting platform. Relying on the precise shooters to snipe from the heights, it is entirely possible to kill bugs in batches. It will be wiped out in minutes.
After all, behind each shooting port are living people who can think independently, unlike the so-called smart machine guns, which can only be effective when the bugs are willing to huddle together.
No, as long as hundreds of snipers are free to hunt and kill within the shooting range, the annihilation effect should be very impressive.
Of course, this trick is only aimed at the light infantry units of the swarm. If it is a thickly armored cockroach or a Hydralisk that has been promoted to a heavy unit, the effect will be greatly reduced, not to mention the anti-tank weapons such as the Ultralisk.
It has to be said that the Queen of Blades is generally relatively restrained when facing Renault's rangers. Maybe she knows that there are not many rangers.
In the real battle, one of the most feared units of the bug swarm is the baneling, whoever it is, it will explode, and it can heal other bugs. They are definitely the formidable opponents in the mixed combat force of hordes of light infantry. They are rpg combat forces that cannot fly, and they are a headache for anyone who encounters them.
Even for Zhao Wenrui, when encountering poisonous banelings, it would be embarrassing to equip a sword with a long knife, and even with energy protection, it would not be able to withstand the consumption of continuous explosions.
Any other precise shooter will die if they ride their faces.
There are also special warfare types like Corruptor and Host.
The former can be parasitic, even mechanical units can't escape its clutches, and it can also damage toxins in a range, and infected creatures can be reduced to deformed combat power, devouring the same kind to obtain energy.
The latter can release sub-units, the attack range is very far, and it can also sneak away, which is very troublesome to deal with.
So even if there is no air combat power to intervene, once the ground troops and the combat units with rich insect swarms are confused, it can be said that any troops should be mentally prepared to shed a few catties of blood.
Correspondingly, the Zergs that Renault's rangers have encountered so far are really restrained. Perhaps only when facing the protoss head-on, will you really go all out in the future, and use all kinds of combinations of arms.
Therefore, even though he has achieved very good results in fighting the insects all the time, and even suspected of hanging him, deep down in Zhao Wenrui's heart, he has never been proud, and he dare not push himself too far, lest the insects get serious and give him a hard time . To be honest, a small force like the Renault Rangers couldn't stand the serious friction of the Zerg.
The same is true for this southwest assault operation. They are serious about the battle in front of them. As for the Queen of Blades playing a game of house demolition with her licking dog, she completely ignores it.
The flames paved the way, and the precision shooter quickly cleared it, and the road was cleared.
Of course, the spore cannon and Hydralisk's thorn attacks are also unavoidable. Fortunately, Iron Belly is well tolerated, and can be rotated. If it is replaced, use nanoworms to try to repair it. This operation pays more attention to continuity and suddenness, and it is too late to go back to the rear to rest, and it is necessary to penetrate the road all the time.
Due to the fact that almost all the staff are vehicles, even if light infantry occasionally lands or seizes the commanding heights, they can also use rocket jets to fly up and down. Therefore, the bugs are also quite helpless. The result is being hunted freely. The killing efficiency of precision shooters is really good, especially when cleaning up light infantry, basically one shot kills one.
Finally, a large number of flying mantises joined the battle.
It's a pity that they were discovered as soon as they took off, and then the wild bee drone group sent hundreds of anti-air missiles as a gift, and the blood rained from the explosion. They couldn't fly at all, and they all fell down.
Cockroaches, ultralisks, and the like were not recruited, and chose to burrow, but they couldn't dive deep, and they would still be bombed by targeted earth-penetrating bombs.
But gas bombs are always harmful, especially in urban areas with many high-rise buildings. After the oxygen is exhausted, it will take a long time for them to come back.
Once the number of light infantry decreased, the spider mines improved by Zhao Wenrui became active. The spears of the needle worms were helpless against such small things that were too nimble and fast. If they were attached to them, they would explode with blood, but if two were attached, they would die. up.
The spore reptiles and needle spines were killed by the spider mines.
Zhao Wenrui also pays great attention to the cleaning of the creep tumors. Without the support of the creep tumors, the creep cannot survive on the asphalt road and will fester quickly. And without the creep, the bugs would not be able to achieve the effect of coming and going like the wind, and the buff with high recovery. Therefore, if we advance seriously, the creep must be cleared.
Forcibly sweeping all the way, even without using Zongthra, relying on the firepower of the battle group alone, the performance is outstanding.
As a result, Tex Finley had a bad mouth: "I think bugs are just a bunch of scum!"
Nemesis came, and a large number of infected insects appeared, along with armored springtails and hydralisks.
Infected worms are not slow like zombies in the game, but very fast, but their bodies are deformed, poor balance, and easy to fall.
But is this a thing? Maybe it happened to dodge the bullet.
In short, in terms of speed, bugmen are not slower than springtails at all, but unlike springtails, their actions are logical. They are deformed, sometimes running straight, sometimes running diagonally, sometimes like orangutans, sometimes like Crabs, pretty much whatever you want.
This makes it very difficult to judge their trajectories. Even the intelligence brain of the individual combat system said that it lacks big data, and it takes time to establish a new template, so it is impossible to judge the trajectory.
This means that full manual aiming is required, and the individual soldier system is basically hopeless.
Insects are not only fast, but also have a variety of attack methods. Needless to say, infected marines can shoot. Ordinary insects can shoot thorns like Hydralisks, and some can spray thorns like cockroaches. Saliva, and some will explode, in short, there are all kinds of things.
The group itself is like a bad version of the hybrid Zerg army.
The armored springtails and hydralisks are specially targeted to increase the frontal armor, which is similar to the cuticle of the modular armor. It has excellent resistance to the nail bomb weapons used by precision shooters, and it is a good day for one shot and one life It's over, it will take several shots to take out one.
Such a monster mudslide surged, and Renault's Rangers couldn't stand it at that time.
But at this moment, the back road they swept all the way, the ground cracked, tunnel worms broke out one after another, and a large number of purple springtails and hydralisks surged out, and the breath matched the frontal zerg, completing the duel Surrounded by cavalry.
Although the combat power structure of the purple swarm is simple, their source of troops, that is, the worm nest, is unknown, perhaps in parallel time and space.
Even if you want to destroy it, you can't do it, so although you have killed a lot, you can get more and more. Swish Swish is three waves, Hydralisk's sharp thorns attack and shoot, all have a certain effect of covering the sky and blocking the sun.
"Rise up, rise up! This is a damn trap!" Jim Raynor was a little annoyed.
Thanks to the efforts of Zhao Wenrui, a group of small ships were brought in and changed into iron bellies, so that the rangers were more proud, and they could use the vehicles to play raids. If a team of people and horses were advancing on the ground like before, they would be in desperate situation in minutes up.
Even so, the Rangers paid a certain price. Four Iron Belly ships caught fire and fell one after another, becoming big bombs. Two of them were purely unlucky. They were pushing forward at the front and were injured and transferred to the rear team to recover. As a result, a large number of purple insects appeared from behind. Before they could rise to a sufficient height, they were shot into a sieve by the Hydralisks.
Fortunately, the lost iron bellies were all explosive bombers, which meant that there were not many rangers, but only puppet soldiers for ship control and fire control.
The rest injured seven or eight iron bellies. Needless to say, as long as they can escape, they will turn out to be a hero again.
The aerial zerg is also arranged.
They were obviously also afraid of flying units such as Guibaba's Flying Mantis, and died in large numbers before they made any achievements, so they turned to mass-produce self-explosive mosquitoes.
It is said that it is a mosquito, but it is actually not that big. After all, only a few of them can sink a battle cruiser hundreds of meters long, which means that the biological explosives it carries are not only of high quality, but also not too small.
And this carrying capacity determines that the self-explosive mosquito cannot be too small, after all, fast flight must be considered.
In fact, their wingspan is almost the same as that of the Global Hawk drone, but their wings are wider, and their bodies are much more bloated than that of the Global Hawk. They look like enlarged moths, not mosquitoes.
This kind of zerg is dealt with with air-to-air missiles, which is a bit of a disadvantage to be honest.
The available machine guns often involve dog fighting in the air, and as a super high-speed fighter, the wild bee's dog fighting ability is not very good.
And dog fights are relatively time-consuming. After all, the attack time is often only a short moment. If you want to attack again, you have to complete the tailgating or stagger again.
Of course, the most annoying thing about self-exploding mosquitoes is the large number.
The resources to produce a flying mantis can produce 6-8 self-explosive mosquitoes, so self-explosive mosquitoes are easy to form an army, and once they appear, they will be a large area.
Therefore, this series of factors makes it very difficult for wild bees to face self-detonating mosquitoes.
Of course, it's just laborious. The Galactica is fully launched, and it can release 300 wild bees. This is not a small number. It can be said that one wave can hurt the self-explosive mosquitoes, even if there are a large number.
It’s just that the wild bees are also a little injured, mainly because the ammunition is consumed relatively quickly. As high-speed drones, their ammunition capacity is actually very limited. Such a large consumption means that they must go back to the mothership for resupply. Going is also consuming, as well as time.
Therefore, a wave of self-explosive mosquito surprise attack was successfully dealt with by the wild bees, but Zhao Wenrui was not happy. He knew that if the Rangers were pulled into the rhythm of consumption by the Zerg, it would only be a matter of time before they were defeated.
This kind of defeat is not simply a matter of how many people died, but a loss of money in the war. In the end, the overall consumption is too large. In this case, the Rangers can't afford it.
After all, reality is not a game. There are many aspects to consider. If the economy loses money, the Rangers will have to fight with wooden sticks next time.
It may be exaggerated to say this, but the fact is that when you have no money in your pocket, you will subconsciously save when you shoot bullets, and you can’t let go of your hands and feet. It is a kind of self-reduction in combat power, let alone specifying what A costly battle plan.
Some people may say that if you have less money, you can't fight wars? A battle plan that has to burn money is awesome?
Regarding this point, Zhao Wenrui, who has personally experienced the reality, must say that under the premise that it is not wasted, but used normally, it is really where the money is spent and where is it good! You get what you pay for, and that’s it.
To put it bluntly, wars like these are burning money. The value of nanoworms is so expensive that it can bankrupt the richest person in the world.
If it weren't for him relying on his solid foundation and high technology to burn here, there wouldn't be so many miracles in war, and the battle would definitely be a different situation.
So fighting is burning money, and if you don’t have money, you will burn your life. But burning your life is like a fierce fire, which is fleeting. If you want to keep the fire burning, you have to burn money hard.
Jim Raynor ordered a temporary retreat, and before leaving, Tex Finley sent the swarm two big bombs.
The mushroom cloud rose, and the purple swarm was hit hard again. As for the worms, the losses were limited. The main reason was that Tex Finley didn't dare to throw nuclear weapons. After all, the search and rescue in the front area had not been completed yet, so he was determined to do it all. Neither did Jim Raynor.
The group retreated to the temporary base, where the silicon crystal mines had been collected.
After Zhao Wenrui summed up, Zuo Fan was almost packed, and he didn't have any burdens, so he simply changed his base.
The northern worm nest was captured by Jim and the others before, and the silicon crystal mines there can still be mined for a while.
Even though the amount of minerals that can be collected before a battle doesn't seem to be much, it can almost make up for the holes in the ammunition consumed in a battle, so these are not mosquito legs, but at least chicken legs, and they still have value.
So the rangers relocated collectively, and the iron belly in good condition guarded the tugboat carrying the facilities to the northern lair. Those in poor condition used the shipyard for repairs. The shipyard itself can fly, but it can’t fly high or fast. There is no protection ability, but there is a Galactica drone mothership at high altitude, and there is nothing wrong with rushing over there later.
Since the supply facilities have also become mobile, after the rangers leave, except for the automatic machine gun fort that guards the mouth, there is no need to leave a single hair.
The machine gun forts can actually be dismantled, but there is no need for them. They have already earned back their cost several times, so let them be there as a witness that the rangers have come.
The northern insect nest is also located on a natural high platform, with a relatively small area, but the terrain is more favorable, the entrance is easier to guard, and there is a building with tens of thousands of square meters of land nearby.
This building belongs to the Mobius Foundation, and the rangers have rescued some people from here, but they didn't expect to go around and come back.
With mechanical experts like Zhao Wenrui present, the building was quickly taken advantage of.
The buildings of this era are all equipped with a large number of mechanical and electronic facilities, and all of them have the style of high-tech buildings in the eyes of people on the earth in the 21st century. If they are used well, they have many functions.
However, the main reason why Zhao Wenrui was willing to waste time serving him was because the financial lord had spoken.
The people of the Moebius Foundation believed that it was safer to be under the protection of the Renault Rangers than to be with the Twentieth Fleet.
It turned out that the 20th Fleet's behavior of spying on the Queen of Blades finally annoyed the Queen. With a little trick, the 20th Fleet, which was placed in the pursuit, was exhausted, the flagship Valhalla was injured, and several other ships fell down. Including a battlecruiser.
The Twentieth Fleet suffered such a big loss, and became completely frightened, and refused to continue wading through the muddy water. The videos and refugees they got from the Rangers were enough for them to explain to the emperor and the country. So why continue taking risks?
So people from the Moebius Foundation came to find the Rangers.
Of course, no problem, as long as you are willing to pay.
Mobius said that we are not short of money, please provide the best service.
Zhao Wenrui said that there is no problem. The office facilities you used to use are quite spacious and comfortable. Please continue to use them, but the security guards have replaced the Rangers.
In this way, the Rangers got another sum of money, which made up for the loss of four Iron Belly ships before, plus the care of being injured due to the setback of the attack.
Jim Reynolds said that this wave of money condolences came in a timely manner, and more similar condolences can come.
Zhao Wenrui said: "For people like us, the main thing is performance. And we can't stop our actions. Every time we recover 1 point of strength, bugs can increase 10 points of strength. According to this trend, they will crush us sooner or later."
Jim Raynor asked, "What new plans do you have?"
"There must be. The new plan is that you start from the current base and go westward along the upper line of this area. I have analyzed that there is a high probability that this area will have good harvest. It can even be said that after searching and rescuing this area , our main task has basically been completed.”
"The search and rescue work in this area is naturally not easy, but there is nothing wrong with the road trip we performed before, but it was pinched by the Zerg and completed a sudden encirclement."
Jim Reynolds recalled his previous actions, and nodded in agreement with Zhao Wenrui's statement.
Zhao Wenrui said: "This time, you should be more cautious. But this will last longer, and the zerg may rush over to form a siege. So I am responsible for making a big noise to attract the zerg's attention. I will search and rescue , This can greatly reduce the complexity of the task, and the mobility is also guaranteed. I will take care of hacking and hacking. I will kill whatever I catch. If I kill the Zerg, I will send troops to surround and kill. Our goal will be achieved. Pressure on you will be much lower."
"But it's too dangerous for you, isn't it?"
"How dangerous can it be? I have worms to attract hatred. If I can't do it, I can still fight. My dog's ability is invincible in the world. Didn't I successfully hide in the sea of worms back then? So be more efficient on your side, which is the biggest thing on my side. support."
"Okay, no more words of thanks. Me and the Rangers owe you one."
For the implementation of the plan, Zhao Wenrui started with two iron bellies, one of which was modified by him to look like a large fifteenth-century Galen ship with five layers of firing ports on the side.
The rest of the Iron Belly accompanied the Rangers, took the northwestern line, stuck to the edge of the area, detoured and then cut into the western Zerg control area to start a search and rescue operation.
There is a time limit for the two sides to act. Zhao Wenrui started the battle first, and Zongsila ended his submerged state and went up to the surface to show off his might.
The self-propagation and transformation of nanoworms has never stopped, so I haven't seen it for a while, and now the worms have semi-organic and semi-inorganic characteristics, and they look like nightmare monsters made by Dr. Mad.
Under Zhao Wenrui's design, Zongsila removed the heat ray cannon that he thought was useless for eggs, and the tail needle was also abolished, but a large poisonous sac was added, and the tail became a large ovulation opening.
Now Chestra is like a female cockroach with a big belly. The eggs it lays can hatch in 30 seconds into a velociraptor-like sprinter with sickle forelimbs. This short-lived bug with a lifespan of no more than 72 hours has a strong metabolism. Against the sky, super explosive power, super strength and speed, super healing, it can be said that unless it is fatal with one blow, this monster is a killing weapon that no one can enter.
Facts have also proved that they are indeed masters of slashing. While bearing the blows of the Hydralisk's thorns, they can also be tough with seven or eight springtails at the same time, and then win the battle.
It is a little nonsensical that when Zhao Wenrui designed them, he failed to pay attention to their design, so that these killing weapons would slip on the creep, so that they repeatedly rushed too fast, turned and slipped and fell, and then were surrounded by jumping insects The tragedy of dismemberment.
Therefore, the war worms of other people's swarms have been tested and tested repeatedly before they are finalized. It is not something that someone can design a biological weapon just because they have some brains and talents. The latter inevitably has various omissions, and the comprehensive adaptability is often not good.
But in any case, the card of Zongsila has been played.
Iron Belly acts as a bodyguard for Chongsla at low altitude, and the free shooting of a precision shooter can greatly reduce the blows against Chongsla.
And the sprinters that Zongsla keeps producing can also effectively harvest the springtails that come up, or some bugs that come from the ground.
As for the big guys, such as Thunder Beast. Chong Silla said that what I am most afraid of is the so-called big man, no one can say big in front of me.
Against the giant scythe pincers against the Thunder Beast, it was naturally Zongsila who won, and the Thunder Beast was cut into pieces of meat.
Zongthra also has biological missiles available, so it is quite interesting to blow them up from time to time.
Later, the Flying Mantis appeared accompanied by the self-detonating mosquito, and Chongsila began to struggle.
The self-detonating mosquitoes are also quite careless. They no longer only hit air units, and big guys like Zongsila have also become their targets for self-detonation.
Chongsla was blasted several times in a row, shaking his head, and was seriously injured.
Fortunately, the bodyguards were strong. During the recovery process of Chongsla, they successfully defended and prevented the self-explosive mosquito from further expanding the results of the battle.
And Zhao Wenrui prepared a large number of oxygen-consuming bombs in order to deal with the self-exploding mosquitoes. This kind of weapon is a partial product developed on the basis of cloud bombs. It doesn't need high temperature, it only needs to consume oxygen.
From time to time, it is lost, so that a low-oxygen or even anaerobic combat environment is formed.
Anyway, Zhao Wenrui's side basically didn't need to consider the issue of oxygen consumption, and because of the inorganic nature of the insects, the dependence on oxygen was extremely low, but the sprinter was a bit hurt.
But compared to the Zergs who have become soft, it's okay for the speedrunners to stop walking all the way for the time being.
Let those who have already been born form a team and find a direction to advance to death. Before they are all killed in battle, they can cause a lot of damage to the Zerg.
