There were a total of thirty cold nuclear fusion bombs, and 30 relatively complete corpses of war bugs were found. The bombs were placed in their bodies and deployed in silence in the passage at intervals.
It can be said that for this operation, the resistance army spent real money.
In the process of retreating and attacking in the passage just now, luring the worm mound, the war insects outside the worm mound were constantly being killed, so the mother war worms would not react at all to the sudden appearance of an additional corpse.
noticed.
However, it doesn't matter even if you notice it. After all, there are so many war insects planted in each insect mound. Who knows when a war insect just happens to die there?
The Starry Sky Zerg are not like humans. They also need to provide identification, count the number of missing bugs, and so on.
Therefore, the presence of a few more Zerg corpses along the way would not cause them to even pay the slightest attention.
"No need to wait, start now!"
"Yes, Captain!"
After hearing Luo Hao's order, the weapons officer, who was already ready, directly pressed a button on the console.
next moment...
A total of thirty huge energy groups instantly rose in the passage and lined up neatly.
All the war insects within its coverage area were directly blown to pieces, and most of them were even blown up to the point that except for the pair of front legs, it was basically impossible to find other parts of the body.
As for the front legs of those war bugs, most of them were blown to pieces or deformed in this attack.
But no matter what, at least it will not directly turn into dust in the universe like other parts of the body.
Therefore, whether it is broken into pieces or deformed by explosion, as long as it is collected and taken back, it can still be used after processing.
"Report the situation immediately!"
"No, the interference is too strong, it will take at least a minute before scanning can be effective!"
"Keep an eye on it. Once the interference subsides, immediately determine whether the female insect inside still has vital signs, and at the same time prepare the mecha squadron to attack!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Time passed by second by second. Although it was only one minute, this minute made everyone feel that it was extremely long.
It can be said that this mission can be considered completed at this point.
All that's left is to collect the corpses of the starry sky bugs. Even if many of the corpses cannot be found, as long as the pair of front legs are still there, there will be no problem.
However, this is not perfect enough for Jiang Xingchen and Luo Hao.
What they want is to overfulfill this task!
What is overfulfillment?
Not only did he want to obtain the front legs of tens of thousands of war insects, he even wanted to capture the living female insects and bring them back to the Canglan system for research.
After all, being able to survive in the Death Nebula and control the insect mounds to swim there proves that these female insects have precise and keen senses of space turbulence.
It may be instinct, or it may be the function of some organ.
But no matter which one it is, as long as you can catch it alive...
Well, even if it is not obtained, as long as its complete body can be obtained and brought back, it is very likely that the resistance army will control the ability to roam in the Death Nebula at will by studying it.
That's why Jiang Xingchen decided on this tactic.
Completely opposite to the previous one, this time he was not going to destroy the insect mound, but to lure out all the fighting insects first and deal with them all at once.
After that, let the mechas and interstellar marines take action, directly enter the insect mound, seize the female insect body or even capture it alive.
As for the large insect mound outside the passage, Jiang Xingchen doesn't care even if he escapes, but if he doesn't escape, then he will be captured together.
"Report, the interior of the worm mound has been successfully scanned, and the life responses of the two female worms are still there!"
"Where are the war bugs?"
"There are 472 in target No. 2 and 398 in target No. 3. At the same time, both targets are moving out of the channel at a speed of 80."
"Follow me!"
"Yes, Captain!"
If the Worm Mound does not jump, the speed will be quite slow, which is why the Wuluo and Fuxing had to slow down before.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to catch up at all.
But at this moment, their originally slow speed seemed to be even slower. According to the report, the speed of the two worm mounds at this moment was only 80.
It seems that although the cold nuclear fusion bomb detonated outside it was unable to destroy the insect mound, it should have caused some damage to it to a certain extent.
"Xingchen, do you want to attack?"
"No, leave it to Qian Duoduo and the others. They have already done enough training. If they rely on me every time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to make any progress!"
"That's right, it's okay for you to always be on the front line. Next, you can take command here!"
"good!"
A minute later, the two battleships caught up with the Worm Mound very easily.
"Order the 101st Mecha Squadron and the 079 Mecha Squadron on the Fuxing to attack immediately!"
"After covering the assault ship's landing on the surface of the worm mound, coordinate the attack with the Space Marines!"
As the commander of the final stage of the battle, Jiang Xingchen directly issued the order after seeing the opportunity coming!
"Yes, first mate!"
The standard configuration of the Wura destroyer is a mecha squadron of 48 raiders, a space marine squadron of 192 people, and three assault ships.
The Fuxing patrol ship has a much smaller configuration. It only has a mecha team of 12 Raiders, a space marine team of 48 people, and an assault ship.
The total strength adds up to 60 Raider mechas and 240 marines carried by four assault ships.
Although there are not many, it is enough to deal with only a few hundred.
Regarding the actions of the Wuluo, the female insects in the insect mound naturally noticed it, and soon sent out war insects to intercept them.
However, in front of 60 Raider mechas, this number is of no use at all, let alone the 101 mecha squadron on the Wuluo. At this time, they have completed the transformation and upgrade, and their performance has been greatly improved compared to before.
few.
All in all, more than 400 war insects were released from the two insect mounds, but with the fire support of the Wuluo and the assault of the mecha troops, most of them were quickly wiped out.
As for directly attacking those assault ships that are firmly protected by the mecha group, it is even more impossible.
Soon, all the troops landed on the surface of the two worm mounds, and quickly broke in through one of the cave entrances under the guidance of the Wuluo.
This is the shortest and most spacious passage that the Wuluo found through scanning the structure of the insect mound.
After all, if the passage is too narrow, the mecha may not be able to pass through.
------
"Captain Qian Duoduo, at your three o'clock direction, there are three war insects approaching through the insect tunnel, please be prepared!"
"Qian Duoduo understands!"
"Captain Ye Yunzhou, there is a 78-meter straight passage in front of you. There are no war bugs, so you can pass quickly!"
"Ye Yunzhou understands!"
In the bridge, the large screen was divided into two, showing the status of the troops commanded by Qian Duoduo and Ye Yunzhou respectively.
At the same time, various guidance and response sounds also sounded one after another.
After a while, Qian Duoduo arrived at the center of the insect mound first and saw a living female insect for the first time.
After all, of the previous one, only some body fragments were recovered after the war, and no one had ever seen it intact, let alone alive.
In the center of the worm mound is a huge cavity about 30 meters in diameter, and the mother worm is located in this cavity.
At the same time, the inner wall of this cavity is not made of the original stones or metal of the celestial body like the outside, but is a fleshy wall of flesh and blood tissue. The visual feeling is like entering the body of a certain creature.
The female worm has hundreds of tubes of flesh and blood tissue, like blood vessels, connected to various places on the flesh wall.
You can even see what is being continuously transported in these gyms.
To be honest, this scene was quite disgusting. The pilots of the 101st Squadron were a little better because they stayed in the cockpit of the mecha, but the Marines couldn't do it. Many of them even bent over and vomited.
.
After all, what they are stepping on is the fleshy walls of these flesh and blood tissues...
"Bridge, I am Qian Duoduo, how should I fix this? Cut off all these things like blood vessels?"
At this moment, Qian Duoduo was also dumbfounded.
How to capture this alive?
If all these tubular flesh and blood tissues are cut off, will the female worm die?
On this point, there is really no bottom line for money.
"Qian Duoduo, I am Jiang Xingchen, we don't have much time, let's do it right away!"
"The best way to live is to die. As long as the body is intact, that's acceptable!"
"Remember, we can't stay here for too long, no one knows whether other star bugs will come to support us!"
"Also, if you can't bring it out of the worm mound, just cut it into pieces and bring it out to me, as long as it can be pieced together into a complete whole!"
"Do you understand?"
After receiving the communication, Jiang Xingchen ordered directly without any hesitation.
As he said, no one knows whether there will be support from the Starry Sky Zerg, so you have to move quickly, there is no time to hesitate here!
