These giant bugs are cannon bugs. Fortunately, the interval between fireballs they fire is relatively long, and it takes nearly ten minutes to fire once.
However, their actions are very coordinated and basically synchronized. Just like a salvo of modern artillery, they can form effective fire coverage and pose a great threat to the city.
There was also a scene that made Ye Feng feel sick. Once those Zerg died, the phalanx behind them began to devour the corpses of their companions. He saw that the Zerg who devoured the corpses of the same kind quickly changed one by one.
However, these bugs were still changing, and the overwhelming attacks roared down again, and the bugs that had just begun to transform died instantly.
But no matter how they kill, the phalanx behind them will continue to rush forward. When they see the corpses of their companions, they will continue to devour them. After the devouring is completed, they will continue to move forward.
The scene is so weird, the endless Zerg are arranged in a square formation, advancing fearlessly, dying, devouring, dying, devouring...
After all, there are too many Zerg. Even if the human race has strong firepower, there will still be gaps in density, and the surviving Zerg in the gap will gradually approach and fill the trenches.
This is basically unsolvable. If you don't attack, the Zerg will always get close to the city wall. Attacking will provide the Zerg with materials to fill holes. Killing the Zerg will basically have no effect.
Anyway, when the Zerg dies, the living ones will devour it, and even stones, arrows, etc. will be removed and used to fill the holes.
Therefore, the ground was not densely packed with corpses. Except for some huge craters, it was quite clean, as if no insects had ever died.
"At this speed, the Zerg will attack the city wall before dark, which is much faster than before."
Feng Jin pointed at the screen, shook his head and continued:
"This time the Zerg did not rush in a swarm, the efficiency was much higher, and the use of cannon worms was also very effective, which put great pressure on our logistical supplies.
According to this speed, it is estimated that they can build an effective offensive platform before dark. According to the combat plan, we have to launch a counterattack almost every day to destroy the offensive platform they have built.
If we analyze based on the casualties of previous counterattacks, we may not be able to launch enough attacks to end the insect famine, and the entire army will be killed."
"Indeed, we underestimated the intelligence of the Zerg, but Brother Feng doesn't need to worry. The elders already know the situation, so the battle plan this time has been adjusted accordingly."
Ye Huang nodded and continued:
"The elders decided not to launch a counterattack this time, but to directly use energy cannons to bombard!"
"this......"
Feng Jin obviously did not expect that the new battle plan turned out to be like this.
Although the energy cannon has powerful attack power, it consumes a lot of energy and is driven by source crystals.
If the entire city were to attack with energy cannons, with the current stock of source crystals in most cities, they would only be able to launch them a dozen times.
Energy cannons are the last trump card of the human race. They should not be used unless it is absolutely necessary. Once the energy cannons are used, the city defense will inevitably be on the verge of collapse.
"What the elders group means is that there is no need to prepare for a protracted war this time, and the trump card must be used when it is time to use it.
According to speculation, the Insect King was re-sealed within a few days, and what we need to withstand is just a few days of attacks from the Insects.
What we strive for is to minimize the casualties of the human race. There is no need to sacrifice a large number of personnel for a counterattack in the final battle."
"What if the seal fails?"
"If the Insect King escapes from the trap, with the current strength of our Sin Domain, we will not be able to compete at all. We will only be meat on the chopping board. There is no need to consider the consequences."
"I understand, the three Tang clan families must have chosen to betray out of despair!"
Ye Feng said with some emotion.
Ye Feng has always had a hard time understanding the actions of the three families of the Tang Clan. What is the meaning of genocide and betrayal?
Even if he barely survives, he will become an object of slavery from now on. Life is worse than death. What is the meaning of such a life.
But now he somewhat understands that people always have different choices when facing a disaster. Some people choose to face it and fight, some choose to escape and deceive themselves, and some choose to surrender and become an accomplice.
Only in the face of disaster can the nobility and despicability of personality be perfectly reflected.
Those who work hard for the right of their fellow humans to survive are worthy heroes.
Those who surrender to themselves and run away are poor cowards.
The traitor will inevitably become a shameful traitor despised by thousands of people, and will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history. Even if he survives, he can only become a miserable slave like an animal.
"Let's go up to the top of the city and have a look."
Everyone knew some things, and Ye Huang didn't explain anything more, just shook his head and said.
"Let me deploy it first!"
After Feng Jin finished speaking, he paused, turned around and said loudly:
"Pass my general's order!"
"yes!"
Everyone else in the hall stopped what they were doing and responded in unison.
The dozens of messengers waiting outside the hall picked up the door and filed in almost at the same time.
As soon as those people came in, they took off a token from their waists and threw it into the air. Dozens of light groups flashed and turned into dozens of figures.
"See you, Lord General!"
The dozens of figures clasped their fists and bowed, and said in unison.
"Captains, after receiving the order from the elders, there is no need to prepare for a long-term battle this time, and there is no need to save supplies. Order:
The firepower intensity of all long-range attacks has been adjusted from level 3* to level 2, without saving ammunition.
The logistics supplementary transportation team was suspended for three days, and all personnel were withdrawn from the cannonball attack range to avoid unnecessary casualties.
The energy cannon team is ready for battle. Once the Zerg attack point is 70% completed, it will be destroyed directly without reporting.
The city defense team gave up the current attack method and changed to the first-level combat mode, issuing source crystal guns immediately. All teams were divided into twelve shifts and fought in turns."
Feng Jin knew the entire city's defenses well, and his combat methods had long been standardized. When he issued orders, they were direct and effective.
"yes!"
The dozens of people answered at the same time without raising even the slightest question.
"Go on, pass the order. Killing the enemy is important, but life must also be respected. Everyone should try to protect their own safety. We only need to hold on for ten days. No one is allowed to attack privately until new orders are issued."
"As you command!"
Feng Jin waved his hand and shook a token in his hand. The light and shadow instantly extinguished and turned into tokens, floating in the air.
The messengers stepped forward to retrieve their tokens, bowed to Feng Jin with clasped fists, and quickly exited the hall without saying a word.
This scene opened Ye Feng's eyes again.
He was very surprised by the projection of the battlefield outside the city. The picture quality was definitely clearer than any movie on earth, and the 3D picture was also extremely realistic.
In the scene just now, those light images are extremely powerful with laser 3D imaging technology, but they can also make real-time calls. This is too science fiction.
