One Thousand Four Hundred and Seventeen Key Points of the Battle

Zhuang Bo's finger drew two lines on the virtual screen, starting from the two satellites, and finally moving behind Jupiter, which served as the route map of the two aliens: "The current positions of Ganymede and Io are more reasonable. , judging from the position of Europa, if we withdraw now, we have to fly half a circle around Jupiter. Is it because of this that Europa has been silent?”

Huo Qiang nodded thoughtfully: "It's possible..."

Wu Han suddenly glanced at Zhuang Bo: "Commander, the enemy's route has been analyzed!" As he spoke, he moved his finger and the virtual screen immediately rotated ninety degrees.

Huo Qiang and Zhuang Bo's eyes immediately fell on the screen. They saw two arcs starting from Ganymede and Io respectively. The arc from Ganymede is close to Jupiter, and the arc from Io is far away from Jupiter. , and finally the two lines are connected together in the void.

Wu Han explained: "According to my calculations, the two enemies will meet at the intersection in fifty-seven hours, and Europa will also fly to this position at this time!"

"What? This point is in the orbit of Europa?" Zhuang Bo exclaimed.

"Yes!" Wu Han confirmed Zhuang Bo's guess.

Zhuang Bo looked at Huo Qiang: "Commander, the enemy doesn't seem to be escaping, but rather running to Europa to rendezvous... Do aliens also want to clear the country and concentrate all their power on Europa?" p>

"Yes, definitely!" Wu Han immediately agreed, "This location is not suitable for escaping!"

Huo Qiangma pointed to the suspended chessboard: "Let's deduce it!"

The deduction data on the chessboard was instantly cleared, the fleet returned to its realistic state, and what followed was a series of dazzling deductions.

The two alien fleets set off from their respective starting points and merged with Europa after skipping a long voyage of more than fifty hours.

The chessboard split into two at this time. A flagship alien fleet lingered near Europa for two and a half days, and then flew away from Europa before the arrival of the human fleet. After bypassing Jupiter, it met the incoming aliens. Reinforcements converge.

The aliens on the other board retreated to Europa, and the human fleet arrived four days later.

Attack on Europa. The aliens were on tight guard, and eventually extraterrestrial reinforcements arrived.

Both results have an unavoidable knot, which is alien reinforcements.

Huo Qiang let out a long breath, "After circling for a long time, we have come back. We can either rush to deal with Europa before the enemy's reinforcements arrive, or we can deal with the enemy's reinforcements first, and then slowly attack Europa..."< /p>

Zhuang Bo smiled bitterly: "The enemy's reinforcements are too powerful. It is simply unrealistic to deal with them. The only way out is to deal with Europa first!"

"Yes, this is our only chance!"

Zhuang Bo glanced at Wu Han, then turned to look at Huo Qiang: "Commander, please give the order."

Wu Han also said: "Yes, give the order!"

Huo Qiang said: "We must make two preparations, and there is no need to plan. The main force rushes to Europa...Wu Han!"

"Arrived!"

"Order the Qingzhou and Yangzhou to block the enemy at all costs, and we must not allow this enemy to cause chaos!"

"Yes!"

"The transport fleet will follow the main force and inform the international fleet of our action plan. They should also receive the news."

Zhuang Bo said: "Commander, please ask the international fleet to cooperate. Three battle groups are too weak."

Huo Qiang nodded lightly: "Okay, I'll contact you personally."

The communication was quickly connected. Huo Qiang didn't say a word. He went straight to the topic, analyzed the situation and explained the plan, and finally asked Halsey what his opinion was.

Halsey tried to interrupt several times but failed to find a chance. By the time Huo Qiang asked him to speak, the question he wanted to ask had already been answered. In the end, he could only sigh: "Europa is the key, but Ganymede cannot be let go." No matter what, I must take the fleet to Ganymede first, see the situation on Ganymede, and then decide what to do next."

"What do you think?" Huo Qiang asked.

Halsey shrugged: "Same as what you did on Callisto."

"Oh, it won't take long. I hope you can move faster."

"You don't need to remind me that Europa is not only your mission, but also my mission!" Halsey said.

Huo Qiang pursed his lips and nodded: "Okay, we have reached an agreement again."

After the communication ended, the international fleet continued to fly to Ganymede, and the three battle groups headed by Jizhou turned to Europa.

After the Jizhou turned around, the alien fleet confronting the Qingzhou and Yangzhou suddenly changed direction, trying to break through the blockade and follow the Jizhou.

The Qingzhou and Yangzhou intercepted with all their strength, and the two sides launched a fierce battle around interception and counter-interception.

The alien fleet is stronger than the two battle groups combined, but the aliens' target is the Jizhou, and they have no intention of fighting with humans at this time.

The purpose of the Qingzhou and Yangzhou is to block the alien fleet, and they also have no desperate ideas.

The alien fleets dispersed for a while, then gathered for a while, trying every means to avoid interception; Qingzhou and Yangzhou faced each other tit for tat, never giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage.

Three days later, the international fleet arrived at Ganymede smoothly without any unexpected situations.

Faced with Ganymede, which was motionless, Halsey was extremely entangled. He wanted to use nuclear bombs to clean the ground first, but he felt that it was too wasteful to do so.

However, Halsey hesitated for a short while before making a decision, canceling the cleaning plan and directly airdropping giant ants to Ganymede.

In order to prevent accidents, Halsey was very cautious and did not drop all the giant ants. In the first step, he only used two ships of giant ants to test the water.

The landing process of the transport ship was very smooth, and the giant ants also left the ship smoothly, and then they successfully found the entrance to the underground passage.

The ant colony drilled into the cave like a tide, and there was also a group of reconnaissance drones. Through the drone's lens, the international fleet could accurately grasp the situation of the ant colony underground.

The ant colony continued to advance smoothly, but the situation changed not long after. After a vertical depth of more than ten meters, some short fluff appeared on the cave wall.

The hair was very short and did not attract any attention at first, but as the ant colony gradually went deeper, the hair became longer and longer. A giant ant waded into the hair at a vertical depth of more than 30 meters. The originally thin and soft hair suddenly moved and entangled the six legs of the giant ant tightly.

If Ye Han and the soldiers of Leishan saw this scene, they would definitely think of the strange alien plant at Base No. 1.

The giant ant struggled violently, and its two giant jaws kept opening and closing, but no matter how hard it tried, it could not break free from the shackles of the hair.

And this is not an isolated case. The deeper the cave, the more giant ants were entangled by the hair, and the more they struggled, the tighter they were. A drone even captured a thrilling shot of a giant ant being strangled by the hair.
