Chapter 228 The Plan of the Government Forces and the New Rebels
After the news of the death of all his teammates reached Chen Ming.
Chen Ming immediately switched his perspective to the fleet that he had controlled and that Cheng Xinghe had brought back to the headquarters.
At the moment he switched, a fleet of the mechanical race led by a mechanical race mothership was wreaking havoc in the rebel headquarters galaxy.
And the mothership even aimed a giant cannon with a tip shaped like a centipede with tentacles at the colony of the rebel headquarters.
On this twisted giant cannon that had nothing to do with the regular machinery of the mechanical race, the psychic fluctuations were almost so strong that they formed a substance.
No one could stop this main weapon from firing.
The next moment, the terrifying mental pulse that was countless times stronger than the mental pulse emitted by Chen Ming's crazy language spirit stone swept the entire planet.
All living creatures on the planet.
From the birds in the sky to the fish in the ocean.
From the giant beasts unique to this planet to the microorganisms that are invisible to the naked eye.
Any living creature, any living thing, collapsed and fell into madness under this terrifying mental shock.
The order of human society no longer exists.
It can even be said that the order of the entire planet, the ecology of the entire planet, was completely wiped out under the attack of this giant cannon.
No one was spared.
Chen Ming did not look at the collapse of the planet after all the creatures on the planet fell into madness. This scene had a severe impact on him even in the simulation.
He had seen crazy animals affected by mental pulses with his own eyes.
But those were just animals. No matter how crazy they were, at least they were not excessive for Chen Ming's perception.
People were completely different.
Those who fell into madness would also produce that special substance in their brains, which would cause the body to rot quickly after death.
The whole city and the whole planet became a rotten world, which made him very difficult to accept.
This is probably the real consequence of the mechanical race in reality.
Chen Ming closed his eyes hard, and after opening them, he completely suppressed the pictures he had just seen in the deepest part of his heart.
Then he looked at the content recorded in the rebel spacecraft that had not yet been destroyed.
These earlier records should have more detailed information.
It doesn't need to be earlier, just about three minutes ago.
Cheng Xinghe was preparing to lead the fleet to track the fleet of the new rebels based on the information Song Pu had collected in the past two days.
However, just when he was about to leave the port with the fleet, the fleet of the mechanical race directly jumped and appeared near the headquarters.
There was no time to react, not even enough time to call Chen Ming.
The mothership had already accurately locked the location of the rebel headquarters.
Song Pu only had time to send the last sentence on the terminal, and the mothership had instantly destroyed the colony on the planet and killed Song Pu, Hong Guanghong and Dong Miao who were at the headquarters.
If Yuhui's invasion was just to get some money, then the invasion of the mechanical race was directly aimed at genocide, without any reason.
Cheng Xinghe was stunned at the time, and the first thing he thought of was to retreat and preserve his manpower.
But the fleet of the new rebels he was going to track also jumped here with the mechanical race, appeared in front of Cheng Xinghe's fleet, and launched an attack.
Even though the new rebel fleet did not have the main battleship, they did stop Cheng Xinghe for a while.
The dozen seconds of being stopped meant the difference between life and death.
The mechanical race had already noticed Cheng Xinghe and instantly destroyed Cheng Xinghe and the government fleet.
That was what happened just now.
And in the short two or three minutes that Chen Ming watched the record.
A few spaceships took the risk of entering the hyperspace directly inside the galaxy through the hyperspace jump engine designed by Chen Ming installed on the spacecraft, and after avoiding the gravity well, they successfully jumped and retreated.
Most of the remaining rebel fleets have been completely destroyed.
Even the mechanical race's mothership completely destroyed the remaining three planets with colonies in the galaxy with its main weapons.
After doing this, the mechanical race regrouped and arranged in an array suitable for jumps, and will soon jump to the next galaxy.
The mechanical race can appear in this ghost position, so the next jump galaxy can only be the galaxy controlled by the rebels.
At this moment.
Chen Ming finally understood that the sudden headache he had two days ago was a sign of this.
The fleet that suddenly appeared was just a bait for the new rebels, used to attract Cheng Xinghe to bring the fleet back, so that the mechanical tribe could be wiped out in one fell swoop.
Chen Ming looked at the intelligence he had obtained personally, and his expression gradually changed.
Cheng Xinghai keenly noticed the change in Chen Ming and said, "It seems that there is some bad news over there."
Chen Ming had no need to hide this situation: "Well, except for me, all my teammates are dead."
Cheng Xinghai was also a little stunned when he heard the news, and asked, "What's the situation?"
"At this point in time, there is only one force that can directly attack our headquarters and quickly wipe us out."
Cheng Xinghai quickly thought of the answer.
"Mechanical tribe?"
"Yes, a mothership appeared directly at our headquarters."
Cheng Xinghai showed a look of surprise on his face.
She put down the terminal, stretched out a bit, and kept playing the game in the same position. Her body was already a little stiff and she said, "It looks like it's about to end."
"Whether we win or draw depends on whether my teammates have the means to deal with the mechanical race."
"The fact that you kidnapped me seems to have no meaning. Instead, it allowed them to find a more suitable method."
Chen Ming did not agree with Cheng Xinghai's statement and said: "The situation is always changing. Who can guarantee that you would not have thought of using this method if you were not captured by me? It's a shame that this is a simulation."
Cheng Xinghai didn't mean to excuse his teammates and said, "Yes, otherwise they would be charged with crimes against humanity even if they say nothing."
"It's time to end. I didn't expect that I actually won the game. It's a bit boring. It's like watching you play a game for a month. I didn't even have a chance to play."
Chen Ming suddenly looked at Cheng Xinghai strangely and said, "You, a military academy student, a quasi-graduate, someone who has been on the battlefield and will go on the battlefield in the future, do you still have time to play games?"
"Why is this your focus?"
"Just out of curiosity, can you tell me?"
"I'm sorry you still have the time to ask this at this time."
Cheng Xinghai shook his head, but still answered Chen Ming's question seriously: "As long as it's not a time of war, isn't it normal to take a break and play games?"
Chen Ming nodded and said: "I still have a question. If a teammate dies, will they quit directly, or can they continue to observe the perspectives of other living people?"
"In the back, if your teammate dies, you can still see the perspective of the living teammate, but you can only see the perspective of the teammate, not the one on the opposite side."
Cheng Xinghai pushed the wheelchair behind Chen Ming, patted Chen Ming on the back and said, "Okay, okay, it's time to end."
"hold on."
Chen Ming waved to Cheng Xinghai not to interfere with him.
"I'm thinking now, how did they do this, and what did we ignore that led to this situation."
Why didn't the mechanical tribe outside come here in the first place? Why are you here again now? What's the difference? Why didn't they suspect the Machine Tribe in the first place?
Cheng Xinghai tilted his head and looked at the ceiling with his head half raised, looking like he had nothing to say.
He reached out and took out the terminal that he had just stuffed into his pocket, and opened the game interface.
She was kidnapped by Chen Ming as soon as she came up, and the terminal was confiscated. She couldn't see anything, and of course she didn't know the plan discussed by her teammates.
However, Chen Ming didn't count on her, and still sat on the chair with his head lowered in thought.
Chen Ming couldn't think of the answers to the first three questions at first, but he knew the last question.
The reason why they did not suspect that the mechanical tribe might attack the other side was because the mechanical tribe did not dare to take the initiative to invade the empire's territory.
Then why don't the machine tribe dare to take the initiative to invade the empire?
Chen Ming already had the answer in his mind.
"That battleship..."
Cheng Xinghai heard Chen Ming talking to himself, looked up from the game on the terminal and said, "What battleship?"
Chen Ming glanced at her and said, "The battleship in the giant shipyard."
"The reason why the mechanical race does not invade the empire is because of the deterrence of the capital ships and the support of the nearby star field."
"If they want to invade, they will definitely use the same battleship to invade. So as long as our battleship can hold back their battleship, they will be killed on the spot when the battleship from the nearby star field comes to support."
After thinking about this, Chen Ming finally figured out why the missing battleship was here two days ago and completely disappeared.
If this capital ship is damaged within the empire, it may even explode on the spot.
It is absolutely impossible for the Machine Tribe to do this, and at the same time, it is impossible to bet on whether this is a conspiracy of the empire.
So it is impossible to invade directly.
But if this capital ship explodes in front of the mechanical clan, and the mechanical clan also learns from the wreckage of the capital ship that a rebellion is currently taking place in this star field.
It's clear what will happen.
"The government forces took advantage of the capital ship and took the initiative to send it to the territory of the mechanical tribe."
"Break the original deterrent situation, let the machine race find an opportunity to invade, kill people with a borrowed knife, and get rid of the rebels."
"As long as the rebels lose their minds, the new rebels can temporarily unite with the remnants of the government army, ostensibly because of the invasion of the machine tribe, and give priority to dealing with foreign enemies."
"That's a pretty perfect excuse."
"By uniting together, the new rebels and the old government can create a new government."
"Then the reorganized new government will ask for help from the outside world. The next-door star field and the Gallo star field belong to the same war zone. They will help."
"As for the old rebels who are already dead, they are dead. No one will speak for the dead."
"As long as the new government does not oppress civilians like the old government, then those people who have received the favor of the old rebels will gradually forget about the old rebels."
"In this way, future problems have basically been solved. The new rebels can rely on their resources and the legacy of the old rebels after their deaths to trade space for time and wait for reinforcements to arrive."
"Once the mechanical clan is cleared, all that's left is just a matter of logistics."
"And no one is alive in the galaxies destroyed by the mechanical race. The stability is too stable."
Cheng Xinghai probably understood what her teammates had done while listening to Chen Ming's story.
At the same time, she also understood that in this situation, the next most important thing for his teammates to do was to deal with the stability of the colony.
After all, these sectors have been tormented successively by government forces, rebels, new rebels, and mechanical tribes. It is still difficult to achieve stability.
And she immediately thought of a way to deal with stability: "If it were me, I would just take the opportunity to insert my own fleet into the back of the Machinery Race when the reinforcements from other star fields on the front line merged with the Machinery Race, and sweep them away. galaxies and rob them of everything.”
"It's best for the mechanical race to defend back."
"As long as the Machine Tribe returns to defense, our support will arrive, and the Machine Tribe will have no chance of a second invasion."
"We can rely on our own logistics and the resources of the colonies in the systems that were destroyed in the war to rebuild the remaining colonies that still exist."
"The machine race kills people very efficiently and has no impact on the original planet except for the ecology."
"Materials can be transferred almost completely, which is very beneficial to post-war reconstruction."
Cheng Xinghai continued to talk about another possibility: "If the machine clan does not return to defense, then simply use the fleet to plunder the machine clan's resources."
"When reinforcements from other star regions kill the Machine Clan, we can use the plundered resources to stabilize the local people. The Machine Clan's territory is still relatively wealthy."
"That's how my teammates come back."
"The only question is whether they can keep up with their development speed and whether they can temporarily block the machine clan until additional personnel arrive."
"This is probably the place that tests the fundamentals the most."
Cheng Xinghai recalled the two people in charge of logistics among her teammates that she called, and it seemed a bit impossible.
However, what Chen Ming said was somewhat beyond her expectations: "The new rebels are developing very fast. According to previous estimates, their current military strength can slightly block the mechanical tribe if they are prepared."
"In addition, we are used as backers, and the task of the government forces becomes even easier."
Although Cheng Xinghai felt a little strange, he didn't say anything.
Maybe her teammates suddenly performed exceptionally well because she was caught at the beginning.
Cheng Xinghai looked at Chen Ming and asked, "Then it seems useless if you know this, right? Do you still have any means to turn the tables?"
Chen Ming turned his chair, leaned against the workbench, and also looked at Cheng Xinghai and said: "The rebels have only destroyed their headquarters, but they have not been completely wiped out. The game is not over yet."
He reached out and clicked a few times on the workbench behind him to display a three-dimensional projection of an object on the workbench, but the projection was blocked by himself.
Cheng Xinghai couldn't see clearly the specific appearance of the projected object, so he subconsciously tilted his head.
There were both doubts and the idea of going around Chen Ming to see what Chen Ming was projecting.
Chen Ming stepped aside a little so that she could see clearly.
When Cheng Xinghai saw the three-dimensional imaging, his eyes widened slightly, and he seemed to think of some possibility and said to her: "More than half a month ago, when I just arrived in Songpu, I went to several local restaurants. Lab, you were with me."
"I didn't let you know what kind of laboratory it was. When you asked me, I didn't tell you what the thing that I had handed over to people in the laboratory was."
"That's an alpha core."
