My Clone Empire

While the Zerg troops were suppressed by explosions and bullets from tall buildings, some marines began to escort the human survivors hiding in the buildings out of the city. The rescue mission on the ground is progressing in an orderly manner, very smoothly!

"No!" Commander Luo Hong frowned. It was because it went so smoothly that he felt something was wrong. The Zerg's combat power shouldn't be so weak, but it was held back by the few thousand infantry fighting vehicles and combat robots on his side. If the Zerg had this kind of combat power, then it would be impossible for them to beat the Federation so badly!

"All troops shrink their defenses, give up fighting, and return to the fleet!" Luo Hong hesitated for a moment, and finally gave the order to retreat through gritted teeth.

Hearing the commander's order to retreat, the crew members on the bridge were a little stunned and cast puzzled glances at him. After all, it was their commander who advocated rescue at first, and it was their commander who chose to stay. Now that the rescue operation is going so smoothly, it seems that it will succeed, but their commander said...to... give up!

Luo Hong looked at the puzzled expressions of the people around him, and sighed secretly in his heart. He knew that this order was a bit abrupt to them, although they would definitely carry out the order he gave in the end. Knowing that if they don't explain clearly, they will definitely have doubts in their hearts, which will affect the morale of the soldiers, so he explained: "The operation is progressing too smoothly, and the combat effectiveness of the Zerg will never be like what they are showing now. The level is so low, there must be demons when things go wrong, who knows what kind of conspiracy these bugs have, or what they are hiding..."

"Let the landing craft return to the battleship first, and make a decision after we investigate in detail!"

"Although rescuing the hostages is very important, I will not gamble the lives of hundreds of thousands of our soldiers in order to rescue these hostages!"

The crew sighed slightly when they heard the words. Everyone has their own selfish side. In the face of danger, between unrelated people and their companions, they will definitely choose their companions first. This is human nature.

They could not refute this reason, and the order to retreat was quickly conveyed.

However, before the ground troops retreated, they still rescued more than 100,000 people, which somewhat comforted their hearts.

Just when the landing craft transporting the hostages was ordered to return to the fleet, the water in a lake on land suddenly emptied, revealing a bottomless cave.

Immediately afterwards, Zerg battleships rushed out of the ground one after another, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of Zerg warships had rushed into orbit.

When the cruiser that was staying in orbit and preparing to dock with the landing craft reacted, the overwhelming Zerg warships had already outflanked them.

"Quick! Stay away from the orbit of the planet! Speed ​​up! Keep the distance from the Zerg fleet!" Luo Hong knew that he could not face the Zerg fleet head-on now. Opportunities are divided and destroyed. His strategy cannot be said to be bad, but the reality is so cruel.

"The number of enemy ships is increasing! At present, it has exceeded 30,000 ships! The number is still increasing!"

"It's really a good plan!" Luo Hong slammed the console hard, feeling very annoyed in his heart.

This planet is actually a trap laid by the Zerg! On the surface, only a small number of Zerg troops were stationed on this planet, and 100 million human hostages were left as bait. This not only prevented the enemy's large army from washing the ground, but also misled the enemy into thinking that there were only a small number of Zerg troops on the planet. Therefore, the number of warships left to rescue the hostages will not be too many, but it will not be too few. After the enemy's main fleet leaves, these hidden Zerg warships will emerge and swallow the warships left by the enemy to rescue the hostages. This can not only reduce the effective strength of the enemy's main fleet, but also cut off the enemy's retreat!

At this time, Luo Hong was eager for the Zergs to swallow their flesh and drink their blood. It is conceivable that once the passage of the First Fleet to the new home planet is cut off by the Zergs, it will not be the Zergs who will be made dumplings, but their Andromeda. Develop the company's fleet!

"Strategic retreat! Go to join the Second Fleet!" Luo Hong gritted his teeth and made this very difficult decision for him, because he knew that if they retreated, the 100,000 Marines on the surface of the planet would be wiped out. would be in danger of being alone and helpless, but he had to. The strength of the enemy and us is too great, 30,000 to 100, maybe the combat power of a single Zerg battleship is not as good as their cruiser, but ants kill elephants more, and their 100 cruisers rush up, probably not enough bugs to stuff their teeth Yes, even though they can cause some damage to the Zerg fleet even if they are desperate, they can't turn the tide of the battle, and the marines on the ground will also not be good.

But if they can rendezvous with the Second Fleet, then they can counterattack with the Second Fleet, and the situation may be reversed by then.

Now I just hope that the number of Zerg fleets hidden on this planet will not be more.

"All battleships obey the order! Immediately enter the superluminal state and return to the new home planetary system!"

"All ground troops, all enter the state of guerrilla warfare, and wait for us to join the Second Fleet to come to the rescue!"

Thanks to the advanced hypervelocity engine on the battleship, Luo Hong's battleship quickly got rid of the pursuit of the Zerg fleet.

And the Zerg fleet didn't continue to pursue, their first task was to cut off the logistics line of the Andromeda Development Company's first fleet. Now that they can't catch up, they won't be stupid to continue chasing.

At the same time, the First Fleet, which had just arrived at the destination and released the superluminal state, was covered by the overwhelming firepower of the Zerg after the superluminal state was released.

The Zerg siege fleet that had been waiting here for a long time was directly arranged in a pocket shape, and the warship of the Andromeda Company that flew over just plunged into this pocket.

Countless plasma cannonballs covered the entire sky, and the bridges of all battleships were covered by these blue electric lights.

In a state of emergency, the bridges of these battleships began to rapidly descend into the battleships.

Fortunately, they had already considered that they might be attacked by the Zerg garrison in this planetary system before releasing the superluminal state.

But they did not expect the firepower of this ambush to be so fierce.

A large number of plasma cannonballs covered directly burned the shields of the outermost battleships of the fleet.

When these battleships that lost their shields were about to replace their positions with the battleships in the fleet, a swarm of hornets following the plasma shells rushed up.

Among these wasps, there are still a large number of elite wasps dispatched by the hive spaceship.

The purpose of these bugs is very simple, that is to allow the elite wasps to complete their boarding operations while the First Fleet was being beaten.

Destroy the outer First Fleet warships directly from the inside, so that they can use these warships for their own use. This kind of battleship is a substitute for the biological battleship that the Zerg likes very much now.

Although the combat effectiveness of these battleships will decrease after being biologicalized, they don't need to spend more energy to cultivate new biological battleships.

The nutrition required for the maintenance of a battleship that combines machinery and biology is also greatly reduced.

Therefore, this battle will not only eliminate the First Fleet, but also capture most of the First Fleet warships, thereby increasing the combat effectiveness and diversity of the swarm fleet.

The destroyers and battleships that lost their shields were easily rushed to a dangerous distance by the hornets.

Even if these warships are full of anti-aircraft weapons, the number of wasps in the Zerg is too much.

It seems that they will never be wiped out forever. After one wasp dies, there will be more on top! A few minutes later, these wasps had broken through the battleship's anti-aircraft firepower net and landed on the battleship's shell. And the plasma launcher at the wasp's mouth also began to destroy the anti-aircraft weapons on the outer shell of the battleship one by one, thereby reducing the casualties of the troops behind.
