One Thousand Three Hundred and Ninety-Nine There Are Loopholes

If the Jizhou fleet cannot capture Callisto after it arrives, the two fleets will join together and the fourteen battle groups will be in fourteen directions.

Ye Han wanted to see if the aliens would divide the light bugs into fourteen groups.

This time, the aliens were very sensible and did not disperse the insect swarm. The insect swarm continued to move forward without any distractions, with no intention of dividing their troops.

As long as the positions are reasonable, five groups of light bugs are enough to control the sky of Callisto. Are the aliens planning to fight to the death?

After another half an hour, the battle group of the international fleet had controlled half of the sky on Callisto. After the insect swarm ran for a full hour, its speed dropped significantly, but the progress was only as slow as that of the fleet group.

Whether they were tired of waiting or deliberately testing, the International Fleet suddenly launched another round of attacks. This time it was launched from nine directions at the same time. It was still a classic combination of missiles and artillery shells.

As soon as a move was made here, the insect swarms stopped advancing and quickly gathered to prepare to intercept. After the missile shells flew into the range, several insect swarms opened fire one after another.

But this time it was different from the past. There were too many directions of attack, and the insect swarm was obviously unable to cope with it. Although all the missiles were blocked, a few shells were missed. One of them hit the insect swarm, killing at least a hundred people. Multiple light bugs.

The International Fleet is a chokehold, so why isn't it a nuclear bomb?

Not only this one, but also other artillery missiles do not carry nuclear warheads.

This is because the international fleet is not yet sure whether this round of attacks can break through the interception. It is obviously a waste to use nuclear bombs. Conventional ammunition must be used. Whenever a flaw is discovered, it is not too late to use nuclear bombs.

The success of this artillery shell gave the international fleet a shot of stimulant. The artillery fire that had just stopped resumed instantly and became more violent. Countless artillery shells and missiles were thrown down one after another. A fool with too much money wanted to kill him with artillery shells. Your wealthy attitude.

The swarm of insects on the ground remained unhurried and stayed firmly there. They first copied all the incoming missiles, and then all the light insects ran away and quickly changed their positions.

They were very fast, taking only tens of seconds,

After running for several kilometers, when the shells fell, the target had changed from the insect swarm to the empty wasteland.

Artillery shells rained down, leaving the wasteland in a mess. Then a nuclear bomb fell, and the wasteland was instantly shrouded in strong light. The ground shook violently. Even light bugs a few kilometers away were not immune. All light bugs whose legs and feet touched the ground were destroyed. It was so shaken that it floated off the ground, like nuts flying in a frying pan.

However, the lightworms had already escaped the range of the nuclear bomb, and the vibration did not cause any harm to the lightworms. Not only were they fine after they landed, they immediately organized themselves, fired into the sky, and continued to intercept the missiles.

In this way, several groups of light bugs were driven around by human firepower. However, the fleeing light bugs got into the air and fired several cannons into the sky. As a result, not a single missile could land, but the cannonballs fell quite happily. Right on target.

But it doesn’t matter. This small problem will not trouble professional soldiers. The international fleet immediately improved its tactics and no longer aimed at the insect swarm. Instead, it took into account factors such as the directional speed and direction change of the insect swarm. It not only targeted the insect swarm but also The swarm opened fire, also firing in the direction where the swarm might be escaping.

Now the swarm was doomed. First, the Constellation and the Intrepid worked together to make a contribution. The shells hit the swarm one after another, and then the nuclear bombs fell one by one. In the blink of an eye, a swarm of swarms was crippled by the international fleet, with 60,000 to 70,000 At least half of them were killed by the light bug, and the rest were either severely burned or just barely surviving. One-tenth of them were considered good.

Neither the Constellation nor the Intrepid planned to hold back. After destroying the insect swarm, they replenished a batch of cannonballs and stopped contentedly until all the light bugs were killed.

However, in just a few minutes, the insect swarm labeled No. 3 was completely destroyed. If the giant insect army also had a number, the fate of the No. 3 insect swarm would definitely be to cancel its designation.

One breakthrough led to the overall situation. The Banbury and Saratoga also broke through the swarm's defense and killed more than half of the No. 4 swarm. If the nuclear bomb had not landed a little off, the No. 4 swarm would have been completely wiped out. The end of the army was annihilated.

As if they realized that the situation was not good, the remaining insect swarm suddenly gave up resistance. The originally gathered insects instantly turned into birds and beasts and dispersed. All the light insects struggled to move their legs, or jumped or ran to escape with all their strength.

The purpose of the insect swarm is very simple, to disperse quickly without getting together. In this way, no matter how many artillery shells and missiles are used, it is impossible to kill a large group of giant insects with one shot.

This move is indeed a good way to deal with air attacks, but the insect swarm is too concentrated and cannot be dispersed. The international fleet went all out and dropped tens of thousands of cannonballs in just a few dozen seconds. , killing a quarter to a fifth of the fleeing light bugs... The scene was so chaotic that it was impossible to count the detailed results.

After a while, the giant bugs were no longer found on the ground. The international fleet, which had been wandering outside the safe zone for a year, quickly approached Callisto and continued to beat the light bugs' ass.

An unexpected situation occurred again. The light bugs dispersed, but they only dispersed (four beeps) and not dispersed (three beeps). When missiles appeared in the sky again, all the light bugs stopped again, raised their butts and started to intercept.

However, this time the light insects were too scattered, so scattered that the thin light could not gather together, let alone the range bonus. As a result, the interception was all a matter of chance. They fired a lot, but the missiles were not shot down.

Perhaps they realized that the scattered light insects could no longer stop the missiles, or perhaps the aliens did not want to make any more unnecessary sacrifices. The insect swarm suddenly gave up interception, and all the light insects looked for ways out. Some found a hole in the ground to drill in; some found a hole to dig in; and some ran away, not caring whether there were shells falling on their heads.

The battle turned into a one-sided massacre. Ye Han was finally sure that there were only more than 300,000 light insects on Callisto. Otherwise, when the battle reached this point, the aliens should have revealed their hidden means.

At this time, a group of insect machines suddenly appeared on the edge of Callisto. At first, there were only dozens of them, but after a short moment, there was a large group, and then an overwhelming number of insect machines poured out.

Not only at the edge of Callisto, wherever the bug machines fly, the holes in the ground will open, and the bug machines will jump out and fly into the sky. The bug machine swarm is growing like a snowball.

Whether it is Ye Han or others, they can't count how many bug machines there are. Even the scanning equipment of the warship is powerless. They rush towards the empty warship regardless of anything like a group of locusts attacking crops.

Light insects can only lie on the ground, but the bug machines are flying in the sky. They are not at a dangerous level at all.
