Chapter 1565 1567 Adversity is full of hope

Planet Higgs 3, in the sky full of haze, Mediyas stood in one of his temporary command posts with his hands behind his back, looking at the magic eye that shone in front of him.

One after another, ground troops emerged from the giant magical eye as if it were inexhaustible. These troops come directly from the hinterland of the Alanhill Empire and are well-trained elites.

The clone troopers have replaced a large number of puppet robots and have become the most important battle strength on Higgs 3. Chris's plan to fight the Guardians near Higgs 3 is being rejected. Strict implementation.

Undoubtedly, compared to Higgs 5, Higgs 3 has the magic Transmission Gate, so the speed and quantity of reinforcements are incomparable.

In just one day, several millions of troops have gathered here, including the mighty Dragon Clan warriors, Elf Race warriors, dwarf warriors, orc warriors and human magician troops!

Similarly, the fighter force here has been completely replaced by the new J-30 fighter, which is obviously more powerful than the old fighter used on the Higgs 5. .

Completely different from Higgs 5, the Alanhill Empire deployed a large number of ground troops on Higgs 3, almost all over the planet. There is no pre-set landing field for the caretaker, and the opponent will pay a heavy price if they want to enter the atmosphere.

The ground is supported by a large number of armored divisions equipped with electromagnetic tanks, as well as special forces composed of experts.

In addition to the sufficient number of nuclear bombs, hundreds of thousands of long-range anti-aircraft missiles, electromagnetic anti-aircraft guns, etc., the anti-landing capability of Higgs 3 can also be described as against the sky.

Because it is determined that this will be the main battlefield in the future, or at least one of the main battlefields, the Alanhill Empire has reinforced tens of millions of troops here.

Most of these troops are deployed in solid fortifications, and there are hundreds of thousands of puppet robots working in unfinished areas.

It can be said that the fierce battle of Higgs 5 is buying more time for Higgs 3. As time passed, the fortress of Higgs 3 grew stronger every day.

Near Higgs 3, Alanhill also deployed two man-made planets named fortresses. These two huge man-made planets were equipped with star destroyer guns only available on battleships. Also has a more powerful defensive ability.

With these two fortresses as barriers, the main force of the 1st Fleet can deploy defense calmly, forming two defense lines on the left and right, and stick to the Higgs 3 planetary defense line.

At the same time, the Empire's 5th Fleet and 2nd Fleet will flank the Watcher fleet that has penetrated deep into the Higgs 3 space, and besieged the enemy forces trying to attack Higgs 3 on three sides.

Compared to the Higgs 5, the Higgs 3 was better prepared for the battle, with more adequate defensive forces and constant replenishment from the rear.

Looking at the Combat Unit that was densely packed and arrived through the Magic Eye, Medias was actually very uncomfortable.

As he looked at these troops, he thought of the soldiers who fought hard on Higgs 5, and it pierced his heart.

"It would be great if we could deploy so many troops on the Higgs 5." The old General said with emotion.

Dubbed the Imperial Tortoise, he still maintains his original habit of meticulously wearing his military uniform with an Imperial Golden Eagle Medal. The leather boots that are always polished are worn on the feet, and the trousers are always ironed straight. The most conspicuous thing is still the long sword that hangs around his waist at all times.

"General! If the Higgs 5 is not abandoned, the Watchers may turn to Dothan or the Arrant area...not what we want to see." The adjutant was behind him Openings are comforted.

Everyone knows the importance of this war and the necessity of sacrifice. For some people, this is the real cruelty.

Alanhill's empire is so big that even if it is only one in ten thousand or even one in 100,000, the number of warriors who dare to sacrifice is like the stars.

The advancement of technology has allowed Alanhill to create countless warriors who will die calmly. These warriors were created to be sacrificed, so the commanders of the Empire dared to let them sacrifice.

However, countless such soldiers faced death calmly and were given up as bait, with a trace of tragic unavoidable.

Using his hand on the hilt of the sword, Old General Medeas averted his gaze from the distant beam of light.

"To be honest, this battle was really suffocating, even I felt suffocated." Medias, who has always been known for his defense, showed a slightly unwilling expression on his face.

In fact, in this world, there are no defensive generals, and generals with steady defense are just trying their best to fight back.

Without passive defense in the future, no one will like it, including Medeas. He calmed the defense only because he knew that the empire behind him would eventually fight back and achieve a glorious victory.

Thinking of this, Medias felt that a general like Andre was the real master of defense, able to stick to his position even when there was no hope.

To be honest, this is the first time the Alanhill Empire has been forced to switch to the defense, and it is also the first time that the Alanhill Empire has abandoned a defensive area as a bait.

......

Andre is still in his underground command at this moment. He has already shrunk his defense line, but he still finds that the enemy's attack is like a tide, and there is no pause. There are no signs.

A few million troops will lose tens of thousands of people every day, which is definitely not good news for the defenders on the isolated Higgs 5 planet.

The consumption of anti-aircraft missiles has reached a critical point. In order to support the air superiority of the entire defense line, or to prevent the opponent from using air superiority, the air defense forces have consumed a large amount of reserve ammunition.

In a few days, without anti-aircraft missiles, and everything depends on anti-aircraft guns, the anti-aircraft War General will become even more difficult.

Things are moving in a direction that no one wants to see. The collapse of the entire defense line seems to be faster than previously estimated.

No one is willing to accept such a fact, but the fact is so cruel - this is war.

No one thought that the first problem was the air defense, and no one thought that the ground troops of the Alanhill Empire would fight fairly well despite the inferior air force.

Utilizing cover, the grenadier troops of the Alanhill Empire consumed more than ten times as many enemy troops as they were a hundred times as many.

Seeing that his commander was in a bad state, the adjutant comforted Andre: "Weapons and ammunition are still sufficient, and the loss of ground troops is actually acceptable."

"What really kills is the number of anti-aircraft missiles, the number of nuclear bombs in reserve...Without the nuclear bombs, we will no longer have the ability to attack the enemy's rear, and without anti-aircraft missiles, our air supremacy will be lost very quickly." Andre recently Worrying about dwindling ammo reserves.

With fewer nukes, it will no longer be possible to disrupt enemy attacks and reduce the number of watchmen troops. And this problem has actually been exposed.

The offense of the guards before is not continuous, continuous and continuous. However, with the reduction in the number of nuclear strikes, the guardsmen's strength has obviously increased.

"This is not what worries me the most. What I worry about most is that as the battle continues, our strategic depth is compressed too much." Andre looked at the map in front of him, looked thoughtful and said to his adjutant.

Everyone knows that the situation will become more and more unfavorable, but no one expected that the speed will be so fast.

He pointed to several unusable field airfields on the edge of the map, and continued to say in frustration: "Soon, the number of our field airfields will be greatly reduced, and without the support of these airfields, The ground facilities of the Air Force will also face the harassment and bombardment of the enemy.”

This is almost certain, with the disappearance of the strategic depth, the field airfields will definitely decrease rapidly.

The air force that has lost these field airfields will also be more and more targeted by the opponent - as long as the enemy is not a fool, suppressing 10 airfields within 100 kilometers is definitely better than suppressing within 2000 kilometers. 20 airports is much easier.

"The sky battleship also needs hundreds of kilometers of strategic depth to maneuver, but we are obviously about to lose these strategic depths." Then, Andre's eyes fell on those holographic projections , hovering over the sky battleship in the air.

Once the sky battleships have no strategic depth and appear within the attack range of those Prowler fighters, these sky battleships will also be quickly lost.

Even if there are experts to help protect the large target that has been under the attack of the enemy army, it will not last long.

"Without the strategic depth cover, the Sky Fleet will soon suffer large-scale losses. When the time comes, the pressure on the ground will be even greater." He said helplessly.

Once these sky battleships are shot down, there will be no precise ultra-long-range artillery support on the ground.

Without these large-caliber artillery support, the pressure would be shifted to ground forces. This is the same as the shortage of anti-aircraft missiles, and the pressure is eventually passed on to the ground forces.

Just like Domino's Bone Token, after one piece falls, the rest will fall down quickly, and the previously fallen Bone Token will overwhelm the latter Bone Token.

In short, in the next few days, the days of the ground troops will be worse by the day, and all the pressure will eventually be placed on the ground troops, until the ground troops completely collapse.

In the end, the strategic depth will be reduced to a few kilometers in radius, and even eventually all will be forced to go underground, when the time comes is the last moment for everyone.

"Transmit the weapon consumption data here to the staff in time, and focus on copying General Medeas! I hope our experience can make them more calm in future operations." He smiled bitterly from himself Breaking free from the pessimism, Andre ordered.

The data here is valuable combat experience. After summarizing it and sending it to other troops, it will become an important reference for preparing for battle. This is also one of the important meanings of Andre's insistence here. These experiences will greatly reduce the losses of the Alanhill Empire in the future.

"Yes! General!" The adjutant responded with a salute immediately.

"Has General Adair's troops retreated to the designated position?" As if remembering something, Andre asked Adair who was ordered to step out of the line a few days ago.

"Yes! General! They have retreated to their designated positions to rest." The adjutant replied immediately.

After a pause, he added: "However, because of the loss of local air supremacy, they are likely to be harassed by Prowler fighters."

A retreat is not a backward turn Walking at the same pace, getting out of contact with the enemy, trying to move backwards under the harassment of the enemy, and reducing losses to a minimum, these are all things Adair needs to worry about.

Sometimes, even sacrifice some of the rear guard, or even more exaggeratedly, turn back for a short counterattack.

To do these things in a state of losing the right to accuse is actually to take huge risks and bear a lot of losses at any time.

"The good news is that we intercepted a group of crusher bombers before, so the enemy will not send such large bombers to harass our ground troops for the time being." Having said this, the adjutant spoke again. Added a sentence.

"How many fighter jets do we have left?" Andrei immediately felt a pain in his flesh when he heard the words of intercepting the enemy bomber.

Every large-scale operation of the Air Force is ultimately accompanied by distressing losses. This is war, brutal war against evenly matched opponents.

"Probably less than 2,000!" The adjutant looked down at the dynamic data replied. No way, the loss is always there, maybe the next second, the number will become 1995.

Andre laughed bitterly, made a gesture of not thinking about it, and shook his head: "It's really a number that makes people unhappy."

"All our weapons All are decreasing, including less than 1,700 electromagnetic tanks left." The adjutant glanced at the data and reminded in a low voice: "The oil reserves are quite sufficient, and an underground transport tram has broken down and is paralyzed... ..."

"Bad news is everywhere." Andre continued to say with a bitter smile: "Isn't there any good news for me?"

Adjutant One He was stunned, and then said to Andre: "As of today, we have not been organized by the enemy to destroy any division-level units. This is already a miracle, General!"

"Okay! Come on! We all need a miracle! In other words, every day we live here is a new miracle!" Andre Nodded, stood up and said.

"Let our enemies see that even in adversity, we are full of hope!" He put his hands behind his back and looked at his adjutant: "Send another nuclear bomb! Take some pressure off the front lines! ”
