Chapter 2039 Advance
"Continue to move towards the meeting point!" After finally weighing the pros and cons, Volka made a decision.
The reason for making this decision was mainly because the journey back to the advance base was too far away, and Volka was not confident that he would be able to withstand the endless pursuit of the bug swarm on this thousand-plus-kilometer journey.
What's more, at this time, in order to capture the so-called seven Kruzer star creatures, the Borg's elite troops on Kruzer star are all out. Fleeing back to the advance base may not be able to stop the attack of the swarm.
On the contrary, if the seven troops can converge, then the army of hundreds of millions of robots, combined with the powerful Borg marines, will be able to persist for a longer period of time even if they cannot completely resist the attack and consumption of the swarm.
And during this period of time, the people advancing to the base will definitely find something abnormal. If the seven troops lose contact for a long time, they will definitely report to the fleet. If they want to deal with the innumerable swarms, the Borg can only dispatch the fleet to deal with them. It conducts bombing, and then dispatches landing ships to pick up these ground troops.
After many battles with worms, the Borg understand that it is impossible for them to defeat the worm swarm on the ground battlefield. Only by destroying the planet and then annihilating it in space can the worm swarm be completely wiped out.
"Yes! Your Excellency!" The adjutant nodded, and then conveyed Volka's order.
Soon, the Borg army was ready to break out.
"How much energy reserve is left on the mech?" Volka looked at a combat staff officer beside him.
"There are about 30 percent left..." the staff officer said.
"Order the robot troops to take over the battlefield on the west side, and the mecha troops to return to the camp immediately for energy replenishment!" Volka ordered.
"Yes!" The staff officer nodded, and then began to issue orders to the two troops.
Soon, the mecha troops withdrew, and then the robot army went up. Although the powerful firepower of the mecha troops could not be compared, the robot troops were numerous, and they were not afraid of ordinary insect swarms when they were singled out. Under the defense of the dense robot army, the swarm could not break through the blockade for a while.
After the mecha troops withdrew to the center of the camp, they immediately began to replenish energy for their mechas. For such a large-scale march, the troops must bring sufficient supplies, and Volka, the ground troop, is no exception.
In the very center of this temporary camp,
Their supply vehicles were all parked here, and after those mechs landed, logistics personnel rushed up immediately.
"My lord, I don't think we should put the logistics vehicles together when we are breaking out. Although it is convenient for defense, once we are attacked by surprise, the loss is not something we can bear..." a staff officer suggested to Volka.
"Hmm! That makes sense!" Volka nodded, and he also knew that at this time, he must not put all his eggs in one basket.
As far as the current battle situation is concerned, the casualties of the Borg are not heavy. Except that the bombardment of the swarm at the beginning caused the Borg to lose some robot troops. When the Borg started to counterattack, the swarm was immediately suppressed That's right, so what the Borg lose is mainly energy, and what the swarm loses is cannon fodder.
At this time, the Borg's logistics vehicles are naturally the top priority. Once they are destroyed by a sneak attack, the Borg will be finished. Without energy support, the Borg's powerful firepower will not last long. Once the firepower If it gets weaker, the swarm will fight back, and the Borg army will be finished by then!
So don't look at the fact that the logistics vehicles can be concentrated together to defend heavily, but the attack methods of the swarm emerge in endlessly, and all kinds of novel moves make the Borg simply overwhelmed. If there is any mistake, the loss is definitely not acceptable to Volka.
So after hearing this suggestion, Volka followed suit, and he divided the logistics force into a dozen units according to the staff officer's suggestion, and dispersed them among the army, and each logistics unit was heavily guarded.
You must know that the most important thing for the Borg at this time is troops. Although they are fighting fiercely with the swarm, there are not many troops that can fight.
Because there are too many troops on both sides of the war, on a huge battlefield, only the outermost troops exchange fire, while more soldiers are on standby. It is no problem for them to protect the logistics troops.
After about half an hour, the mecha troops that had consumed most of their energy were fully charged.
"Order the mecha troops to open the way, and we continue to move towards the meeting point!" Volka issued an order.
"Yes!" As the order was conveyed, the mecha unit took off again.
With powerful firepower, the mecha troops cleared a large area of the battlefield as soon as they entered the stage, and then these mecha troops were at the forefront, using their flamethrowers to open the way, and the insect swarms were reduced to ashes wherever they passed.
The mecha troops kept advancing, followed by the Borg ground troops. At the end of the battlefield, a large number of robot troops were in charge of the rear, and then cooperated with the Borg heavy artillery to counterattack, so that the rushing insect swarm could not be defeated. Unable to bite the tail of the Borg.
Volka's tactic is very simple, that is to use the powerful firepower of the mech troops to clear the battlefield, and then let other troops fill the emptied area, and move forward in this way.
Once the energy loss of the mecha troops is serious, the Borg will enter a defensive posture, and a large number of robot troops fill the battlefield, and cooperate with the tanks and heavy artillery in the rear to resist the counterattack swarms, and buy time for the mecha troops to recharge.
Once the mecha units are fully charged, the Borg units will continue to advance.
As for the swarm, apart from the initial bombardment, they seem to be simply consuming the energy reserves of the Borg. Bug troops.
Other than that, the other swarm's units rarely showed up, and even the long-range golden caterpillars and the giant blue worms that could provide force field shields disappeared into the distance.
At this moment, if you look down from the sky, the encounters of the seven Borg ground troops are actually similar, and their choices are also similar. Except for one army that chose to evacuate in the direction of the advancing base, the other six troops All continue to move towards the meeting point.
Logically speaking, with the technology of the Borg, overlooking the battlefield is a simple matter like picking something out of a bag, but at this time they have no way of grasping the intelligence of the battlefield, and the high-intensity electromagnetic interference makes the high-orbit satellites in space fail.
The optical camera of the low-orbit satellite was also covered by the yellow sand all over the sky. On this desert planet, sandstorms are very common weather...
