Chapter 24 Dilation Flow

In the battle against Zerg, there is not only defense, but also offense. m.

Division defense!

Joint attack!

There are three main purposes of the attack, one is to concentrate forces to attack and weaken the forces of the Zerg, and the other is to develop new territorial stars. The third is to take the opportunity to complete the task and kill the advanced brood.

The first purpose is easy to understand.

As for the second goal, in fact, both the Zerg and the city are developing and competing for new planets. Usually they always compete for the same planet and seesaw repeatedly. Sometimes the adventurer wins, and sometimes the Zerg wins.

The sign of adventurers winning is to build a large and complete base, which will be owned by the general with the highest merit in the joint attack, and enjoy various benefits given by the system.

The sign of the Zerg's victory is that their creep spreads over a large area of ​​the planet until the humans are completely driven out.

This is how the planet territories of adventurers and Zerg came about.

The planet currently fighting is Emerald Planet, which is rich in various gemstones and is quite popular in the alliance. This is also the reason for adventurers to seize this planet. Shen Yi is not the only one who wants to make a fortune through business.

And the reason the Zerg grab it is because humans want it.

The battle for the Emerald Star has lasted for three years—the battle for each planet has been accompanied by years of struggle and tens of thousands of casualties.

At present, both adventurers and Zerg have their own bases on this planet-so this is the only battlefield where humans and insects coexist.

Everyone wants to drive the other out, but neither wants to be kicked out by the other.

However, neither of the above two goals is the most important.

The most important thing is the third goal!

Killing the high-level brood is the second main task that every general must complete. However, for most adventurers, the first main task is never to be counted on, and the second main task is also not easy.

To understand how difficult it is, you have to understand a few concepts first.

First of all, the standard unit for an adventurer's base is 10,000 square kilometers per person.

For example, Shen Yi's reading base,

One hundred thousand square kilometers is the radiation area, so it is also called the ten-person standard.

Secondly, the construction funds of the base are roughly equivalent to the income of a base operating normally for one month. This normal is based on the current optimal calculation standard for adventurers: that is, three converters per ten thousand square kilometers, and two energy beads per day as the unit.

For example, Shen Yi’s ten-person standard base can generate 6 million income per month after completion, and the entire base includes the construction of satellite bases, logistics construction of workers, construction of basic defense standard ratios, construction of supply centers and factories, etc., in total. The investment is also around 6 million.

Of course, unless such a large amount is invested at the beginning, it is impossible to build it within a month, and it can only be gradually improved by continuously collecting energy, so Shen Yi and the others spent two months racking their brains to complete it. Superhuman speed.

Now, let's assume an adventurer has a base of standard units, which also takes only two months to build.

Then the next ten months are the theoretical time to make money, and the income is 300*2=6 million.

Does this mean that the six million can be used to strengthen oneself?

the answer is negative.

The first is to deal with the attack of the Zerg and make up for the damaged facilities. This part depends on personal strength, the strong loses less, and the weak loses more.

Secondly, additional payments such as workers' salaries must be paid.

Finally, there is the Mobile Force.

Let's keep the expenditure of the first two items to a minimum, with a limit of 1 million, then a base of a standard unit can earn up to 5 million a year.

So how did it turn out?

The theoretical maximum number of troops for an advanced brood is around 200,000, the strength of the brood itself is around 1500 points, and the life expectancy is not less than a million according to the analysis of adventurers.

Although it is actually impossible to have so many troops due to the consumption of war, even half of them are scary enough.

Five million used for strengthening obviously cannot eliminate such an existence.

Can only be used to build armies.

The five million points are all converted into points, and the cheapest self-production method is used to build an army. A robot also needs a capital consumption equivalent to one-twentieth of the points, excluding ore resources.

In other words, if it is used to produce double A-level robots, only 1,840 units can be produced, or 6,000 double-C-level robots.

Obviously, it is absolutely not enough to wipe out a high-level brood with 100,000 troops with this force, no matter how strong the adventurer is, no matter how good the tactics are and how to use it.

That is to say, in order to achieve the point of being able to destroy the brood head-on, an adventurer must have a base equivalent to five standard units, develop 25 million resources to produce point troops, and cooperate with good tactics to implement. It is possible to complete the task by attacking the brood with all its strength.

This is out of the question for many people.

Even the Broken Blade team has not reached the base size of five standard units per capita.

In other words, few people can do it at all, and even if they do it, they don't have much time to enjoy the benefits-what's the point of doing it in the last month?

This is where the biggest problem lies.

Of course, there is no way.

The best way is to attack jointly.

Use the powerful base turret defense to attract the attention of the Zerg, and then the fleet swarms to kill the brood. This is the best time for the generals to complete the task. Of course, due to the limited number of advanced broods, some generals are destined to be unable to complete the task, but at least they have a chance.

This is the third important significance of joint action.

Therefore, the simulated world will have a major joint combat operation almost every month. Shen Yi and the others are newcomers, so they don't need to participate in such an operation, but when the three months expire, he will also participate.

In fact, this is very bad for those bases that are still in the development stage, because it means that they have to invest precious resources in large-scale mobile forces, and send them to death!

This also means that their development is limited, with precious resources spent instead of building a foundation.

This is the third thing that drags back after Zerg and logistics.

But they can't help it.

This is an order of the Supreme Council and must be carried out.

This is an opportunity for those generals who haven't finished killing the advanced brood, and they don't allow anyone not to participate.

For many years, the generals have come here like this. When they're new, they hate joint attacks, but when they're old, they crave joint attacks.

It's as if the club's coach always hated the national team's coach for stealing players from him, but when he became the national team coach, he began to hate the club for not letting him go.

But Shen Yi doesn't intend to follow that set - as a club coach, he doesn't intend to let any of his outstanding players go to the national team to waste energy.

After thinking about it, Shen Yi asked: "It is necessary to go out for an expedition, but how many people to bring and how to fight, should be decided by the adventurers, right?"

Meryl looked at Shen Yi: "It seems that you have already made up your mind?"

"I won't change the plan easily. Next month is the development period of the satellite base. I must fully carry out infrastructure construction. I don't have any extra funds to invest in troops. Of course, since the Supreme Council has already started recruiting, I will still let the troops dispatch. And I will send as many troops as I can, but before that..."

Shen Yi smiled, and took out the intercom: "Zeus, redesign a plan. Stop the production of mobile armed forces including fighter planes, tanks, tanks and all types of Terminator series, and fully produce shore-based artillery batteries. Before the end of the month, we saw the completion of six satellite bases and all corresponding defense systems, including 30 energy converters, the completion of the development of the commercial area, and the internal portal between the sub-base and the main base, and built everything that can be built. In short, don't keep a dime except for the salary that should be paid."

"Zeus understands that the new plan is being adjusted."

"..." Meryl was deeply speechless: "Actually, you don't need to do this. You can gain a lot of merit in the battle against the new planet, and it's not all a waste of time and resources."

"Then do you know why I don't want to join the joint base?" Shen Yi asked back.

Meryl understood.

It's not that Shen Yi doesn't want to gain meritorious service, but he hates all actions that disrupt his plan, or in other words, only he himself can modify his plan, rather than others intervening to force it.

In order to develop freely, he is not even willing to join the more convenient joint base, so what are the mere combat exploits?

"So you're sure you don't plan to contribute to this joint attack?"

"Of course not, I will do my best...my personal best." Shen Yi replied with a smile.

"Sure enough, you are still you, don't you miss every detail... Well then, I look forward to your good news, I'll go first." Meryl waved her hand.

"Aren't you going to stay for a drink?" Shen Yi asked.

"Are you seducing me?"

"Forget it." Shen Yi hurriedly waved his hands. After this woman was not a saint, she even spoke a lot hotter. Shen Yi felt a little sympathetic to Zhou Yiyu. It seemed that he couldn't let Meryl down.

In the days that followed, as Shen Yi said, construction started again in a hurry. This time, the construction of the satellite base, which had been postponed many times, finally started.

The satellite base is an important support for a core base. The biggest significance is to expand the radiation range of the energy converter. After all, the energy converter in the original core base cannot reach the predetermined radiation range due to the limited distance. Only through the satellite base can it Really play the effect of 30 energy converters of 100,000 square kilometers.

Of course, because it is a satellite base, the defense of the base will not be too strong.

But don't worry, because in the eyes of the Zerg, the satellite base is far less valuable than the main base.

Although they are smart, they don't know how to encroach. In other words, their encroachment strategy is based on the main base with the central control system. After all, the central control system is finished, and all the satellite bases that belong to the core base are also finished.

Therefore, although the Zerg will also attack satellite bases, they are actually divisions of the same unit, and they are still mainly attacking the core base.

However, the expansion of the satellite base will lead to an increase in the actual control area of ​​the base, which will increase the offensive force of the Zerg to a certain extent, that is to say, the 150,000 Zergs may become 180,000 or 200,000.

However, considering the small investment in the satellite base and the large increase in income, the ratio of resources brought by its expansion is actually higher than the offensive pressure brought by the Zerg, so it is still very necessary.

In fact, a base mainly relies on satellite bases to make money. Without satellite bases, reading power bases basically have no profitability. It's all about stealing money from the wilderness.

In addition, portals can be built between satellite bases and core bases for troop dispatching, but only for bases of the same faction unit. Even reading bases in a joint base cannot use portals if they do not belong to the same team. .

Because the so-called joint base is actually not recognized by the system. The joint base is a spontaneous combination of adventurers, just like the four major organizations. The system only recognizes teams with contract restrictions and reading bases under team management. It's all based on this unit.

Due to the rapid development of the core base last month, there is basically no need for investment. The Broken Blade team already has sufficient funds to use, and they don't have to be as stretched as before. Coupled with the fact that the lives of workers have been greatly improved, the number has increased, and labor efficiency has also been greatly improved, so the six small satellite bases were fully completed in only ten days.

Shen Yi did not waste the remaining time, but immediately carried out the first round of expansion operations.

Expansion of the base Shen Yi did not adopt the traditional method of expanding the area on the basis of the original base, but directly built a new reading base.

This new base is built on the other side of the original base, forming a corner with the core base. It is still the standard of ten people. More workers and resources make it expand faster, and many things can be saved, such as the commercial area, such as High-level central control system - the primary one is still needed, this is a must.

This expansion of directly establishing a new reading base also makes the two reading bases look like a joint base in its infancy.

Due to the rapid expansion and the large enough base, that is to say, when his first round of expansion is completed, the actual expansion is already equivalent to the third round of expansion by others.

This is a bit like the concept of the fifth-generation aircraft in the Soviet Union and the concept of the fourth-generation aircraft in the United States. Although the numbers are different, they are essentially the same thing. In some respects, the fourth-generation aircraft is even more advanced than the fifth-generation aircraft.

Shen Yi said that he wanted to take it easy and take it step by step, but the adventurous and aggressive nature of his nature made him start a drastic expansion as soon as he gained a firm foothold.

In fact, he is like the King of Kings SKY. Before building troops, he first divides the bases, even more than SKY. After one is not enough, he has to open another one.

He won't stop if he doesn't open several sub-bases, so that the money is too much to spend.

After the work is done, the base needs to be upgraded again, and the population will explode after confirming that there is nothing to upgrade.

Others also imagined him doing that, but they didn't have the strength and confidence.

Who told the Broken Blade team to come in with six tenth-level heroes and a few allies—although the allies have never been useful.

Not to mention that few people dared to do it against the Supreme Council and the generals like Shen Yi—although they really wanted to do that.

During this time, the Zerg came to attack again.

The attack was before the first round of expansion. At that time, five of the six satellite bases had been built. With the help of a sound ground defense system, they easily withstood this wave. The only loss of his own chastity was that the unbuilt satellite base was directly taken over by the Zerg, and two energy converters were lost.

Based on the principle of not wasting money, Zhou Yiyu used a blood transformation to publicize the huge body of the fortress giant, and the effect was very good.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Zerg did not attack them this time, and this time the main attack became the Eastern District.

When the battle was most intense, Shen Yi had expected the other side to ask for help, but unfortunately, the Eastern District was also very strong, so he survived by himself without asking for his help.

Shen Yi deeply regretted this.

Therefore, when Wen Wen and the others returned from the wilderness, Shen Yi was completely fearless, and that was when the first [***] scale expansion officially started.

At the same time as the expansion, the Broken Blade team's promotional advertisements also began to be distributed on the system star. The image of the invincible giants in the fortress really attracted a lot of attention. Although no one would immediately invest in it because of this, there is always no shortage of human beings who dare to take risks for money.

When the first businessman who came here to test the waters returned to the system star with a ship full of ore without paying any fees, news spread rapidly on the main system star.

More businessmen began to come to Tianweisi to pan for gold, and the Broken Blade base gradually became lively, and the business district flourished at a rapid pace.

However, it will take time to fully mature. Don't expect any benefits in a short period of time, or the only benefit is that the workers are more motivated.

Of course, don't expect to be able to default on workers' wages because of this.

Gentle and they came back with two additional pieces of good news.

One is that the home world has already completed the construction of many more warships, but Shen Yi let Ruan Rou not rush to bring it up for the time being—because the joint offensive operation is about to break out, he does not want to be forced by the Supreme Council to take out all the warships for use , you can't force me to use it if you haven't got the simulated world, can you?

The second is that this second trip to the wilderness finally allowed Hong Lang to collect all the bloodline fusion materials. After Shen Yi prepared a special fusion potion for him, Hong Lang's bloodline consumption was not so high. It is a high-grade material, coupled with the effect of Shen Yi's real alchemy, Hong Lang's bloodline consumption has dropped to 30% of the original.

This is the consumption that should be consumed after the fusion of the Bloodline of the Slaughtering Demon God and the bloodline of Sargeras, it was too much before.

But after completing the bloodline, Shen Yi sent Hong Lang, King Kong and Fatty out to the wilderness to make money again. Hong Lang complained quite a bit about this, so why don't you just ask me not to come back.

So gentle that she didn't go, because she also started to stare: "Don't you want to see me?"

Shen Yi could only send Fatty over there, and at the same time hinted in words: "In a few days, it will be the day of the joint attack. Killing insects will not give any benefits, and meritorious deeds are not bloody points, so you understand..."

He came close to saying that I didn't want to join the joint operation.

Relying on the wealth brought back by the three and more manpower, when the three months were about to expire, the construction of the new reading base was also completed.

The investment in the new core base is less than that in the reading base, because some functional buildings can be shared, such as the commercial area, which does not need to be built, and the number of factories has also been reduced appropriately, and the internal turnover mechanism has started to operate. However, due to time and funding issues, the satellite base has not yet been established.

Within three months of development, the base of the Broken Blade team has changed from one ten-man base to two ten-man bases. The scale is not inferior to a small joint base, but due to structural problems, it can only be counted as two reading bases. , but its momentum of development is enough to make everyone staggered.

Correspondingly, the maneuvering force is pitifully small.

At present, there are 300 Destroyers in the base, all of which are double C-level, and they have not been upgraded at all; there are 400 ordinary Terminator units, of which there are 300 T1000s alone. It is unacceptable to produce 1,000 and lose 800; 80 hunters are also garbage without upgrading. This is a complete abandonment of air superiority; 1,500 soldiers recruited by the system are only enough to defend the base. Don't count on the attack.

There are countless forts. At present, the total number of forts in the two bases has exceeded 1,600. Adding the fortress forts, the number has exceeded 2,000. The number is more than the number of soldiers in charge of operations, but the fourth month is coming. Finally, Shen Yi will make up for the troops - this time he has made a very clear calculation, until the moment before the expedition, and guarantees that there will be no extra troops, nor any extra money to buy soldiers.

This is Shen Yi's base, with a wonderful configuration, a typical expansion flow, and defense towers everywhere, just like a human leader flsh①.

With the completion of the second base, there are already forty converters in the base for energy conversion every day, providing about twenty-seven energy beads every day. When the satellite base is completed, there will be forty energy beads per day.

In a few days it will be the day of the joint attack, Shen Yi began to estimate how much troops he should bring from the existing base, and how to fight at that time.

The initial development plan has been completed, and the mid-term development has also begun. Everything is going smoothly. Now what Shen Yi wants to think about is how to get the most benefits with the least amount of troops and the least cost in the joint attack.

Well, this idea is a bit shameless.

Forget it, let's aim to win this battle and try to make more contributions.

Rebelling against superiors is a science that requires courage rather than recklessness, calmness rather than impulsiveness, and the most important thing is to save face for superiors while resisting.

Therefore, it is not necessary to send many soldiers, and when it is time to work hard, we must work hard.

Just as he was thinking about it, a guard came to report: Cliff is here, and with him is an old friend, Zhou Hao. q
