"The main insect nest around the Overlord has been greatly weakened. If we, the Earth, the Revolutionary Army and the Protoss form an alliance and jointly open a road to the main nest, the chance of killing this monster will be greatly improved."
Admiral Gerald Dugar is a military model in the United Earth Council. His thin features are condensed into a serious and cold face. He wears a dark black brass double-breasted general uniform and has a pistol strap.
Arms belt, the belt buckle is a golden human skull logo.
Dugar's words were as concise, powerful and to the point as his orders. His demeanor and tone were as if every word he said was unquestionable. Every UED soldier must do his best to fulfill the general's requirements.
"It's a good proposal." Renault has thought about Dugar's proposal seriously and believes that this is indeed the best choice at the moment. No matter what, the ultimate goal of Renault bringing hundreds of thousands of revolutionary army soldiers to Char is to kill the master.
.
As for whether Dugar has any other plans, Renault and his men are now in the midst of tens of billions of zerg, and they have no time to make sidesteps with the opponent.
If you are not careful, these people will be killed in the sea of insects. Renault is no longer the ignorant farm boy before. Even the once bohemian Masala cowboy is now responsible for bringing back all his soldiers.
Family responsibilities.
"But I need to talk to the protoss. You know, they may not be too satisfied with the kind of monsters you released." Raynor directly turned to Phoenix's channel to relay Dugar's words and pointed out his own opinion.
"I can't believe I have to fight side by side with these freaks. Is there no other choice?" Phoenix showed his impatience, but he knew that the overall situation should be the first priority.
"As long as you can kill the new master, everything is worth it. This is for the survival of the protoss and for the glory of Aiur." He said to Renault: "Executor Tassadar has issued a new order.
Never waste any opportunity to eradicate the protoss enemy.
"There is an old saying among the Tyranids that old scores can be settled slowly." Raynor said to Phoenix: "I hope these earthlings will not push me back. A stupid friend is worse than a wise enemy."
"Commander Renault, what did the protoss say?" Dugar was obviously overwhelmed by the bad situation on the battlefield. A large number of UED soldiers died every minute and every second.
Char is the most dangerous place in the Koprulu Sector, not only because of the purgatory-like environment here, but also because the insect swarm is a deadly weapon.
"General Gerald, we can fight side by side." Reno paused: "I have to warn you, it's best not to put cold shots behind my back.
"That's just a waste of bullets." Dugar didn't show any expression, but he did breathe a sigh of relief: "I will send you a scan of the Zerg's main nest area, with all the main nests and ueds marked on it.
The location of the landing force's firepower point."
"My men were once only a step away from the Overlord's hive area, but the last few miles were as difficult as climbing into the sky. The red swarm of Tiamat loyally guarded their master, and only your psychic disruptors can
Can handle these red demons."
"You are Mengsk's general. You shouldn't need me to teach you what to do."
"It's really arrogant." When Dugar disconnected the communication link, Renault shook his head and said, "Maybe this is how people on Earth talk. Could it be that this old guy Dugar can't even say a polite word when asking for help?
"
"Cultural desert." Charles complained.
Generally speaking, in the eyes of the earth, Tyranids are more like bohemian cowboys and outlaws wandering in the desert. Unfortunately, except for those sects who believe that earthlings will bring progress and salvation, Tyranids
The Lun people also have a lot of prejudice against the people on Earth.
At this time, Dugar did what he said. He actually sent a satellite scan map of the Charr swarm's main nest area, marked the location of the Zerg defense force, and pointed out the main components of the UED landing force with arrows.
direction of attack.
"The main nest area is located between a wide lava lake and an active volcano. The terrain is difficult. One-third of the area is covered with magma, and the rest of the area is filled with hills and huge fissures made of cooled lava.
Some areas with too large spans cannot even be penetrated by tracked tanks." Renault is already familiar with the terrain of the main nest area, and it is impossible for him to understand it only now.
Similarly, Raynor is also quite aware of the difficulty of attacking the main hive area. If the fleet can provide orbital bombardment and airborne troop support, it will obviously be much easier. But now the protoss fleet is fighting against a huge number of Leviathan insects.
, feeling exhausted.
From the surface to the stratosphere to outer space, a large number of Mutalisks and Blazes occupy almost every altitude. Any human transport ship or Protoss shuttle will be chased by the Mutalisks. There are not enough fighter jets to cover them now.
.
The fighting methods of the zerg are completely different from those of humans and protoss. Their endless group members are directly hatched from the eggs in the underground hives of Char.
The size of the swarm over a period of time can increase dramatically by adjusting the number of eggs, and it has never been heard of that zerg have a law of birth, old age, sickness and death - although human alien research experts have discovered that zerg can also get sick.
As long as there are enough resources, the insect swarm can be unlimited.
"If we can launch an attack from the acidic swamp to the main nest, we will definitely be able to catch the zerg by surprise," Charles said.
"We don't have time to take long detours now." Renault shook his head: "The most important thing is to concentrate our forces and concentrate the limited troops on the enemy's weakest point."
"If fighting a war were really that easy, then I would have killed everyone in the real-time strategy game." Charles also knew the necessity of doing this, but how to deploy troops was the biggest problem.
"There is no need to argue anymore. As early as when I was Al, I once fought my way through the insect swarm by myself." Phoenix said to his two human allies: "The Templars are not afraid of sacrifice, and they have never been afraid of sacrifice.
in this way."
The most direct way is to level all the way and use artillery fire to solve everything.
"Not all the time, not fearing sacrifice will work." Raynor said that the lives of the Templars also matter.
"Old friend, our goal is to kill the master rather than destroy the entire Char swarm. Think of all the methods at hand now."
"Only void energy can kill brainworms and even injure the Overlord." How wise Phoenix was, he immediately thought:
"...The power of this master is far less than the original one. It is only the fusion of several brainworms, and it is even just waiting to be reborn from the cocoon. In this way,
The strength of my Dark Templar brothers alone is enough to kill it."
"In other words, we only need to send an elite team to the Overlord." Charles said: "If it is the Dark Templar of the Protoss, they can rely on their own abilities to quietly approach the Overlord."
"This won't work. Since suffering losses at the hands of the Dark Templar, they have evolved into more complex insect eyes as precise as detectors to prevent the Dark Templar's surprise attack." Phoenix said.
"Someone has to create this opportunity for them."
"So, we just need to open a gap between the zerg guarding the Overlord and let the Dark Templar pass through," Raynor said.
"That's it." Phoenix said: "The great dark patriarch Azma will lead the Shadow Guard to the front line."
The Shadow Guard is the personal bodyguard of Rashagal, Archbishop of Durham Protoss. Her deployment of such an elite force to the battlefield of Char shows her determination to eradicate the Overlord.
"Shadow Guards, oh, brother Phoenix, I heard they are all heroes among the Dark Templar." Raynor said.
"In human terms." Phoenix said in a serious voice:
"Give those bugs some color."
"For Al!"
"For...Korhal!"
A few hours later, around midnight.
A sound of arc tank shelling tore through the sky above the UED Expeditionary Force Atlas Wing position, followed by the iconic terrifying scream of the Valkyrie frigate's cluster rocket salvo, and a burst of dense bright rocket flashes.
When it fell into the insect nest opposite the position, it illuminated the corpses and brown-red power armor fragments in the trench.
The commander's order to charge again after the artillery fire ceased came from the helmet of the UED soldier lying in a pool of blood, but no one could get up again.
This place once belonged to an airborne division of the Atlas Wing. Its soldiers have served in the army for many years and have participated in many wars to suppress colonial rebellions. Usually, such a force is enough to quell a country that prohibits the development of industry and military.
The colony, however, lost 3,000 people within the first hour of arriving on the surface of Char.
In the high temperature environment of Char, the corpses were decaying rapidly, and the wind was filled with the smell of blood and stench.
Even so, when the order to attack was given, there were still Atlas Marines covered in scratches standing up from behind the corpse-strewn fortifications. It was dark all around, and the wind was filled with zerg, which was frightening.
Neighing, and occasionally a large number of flying creatures passed through the sky.
They are as terrifying as evil dragons, as numerous as the mosquito swarms in summer.
Under a dilapidated UED flag that stood sideways in a thick layer of ashes, several Atlas Marines knelt in front of their dying commander, and the UED lieutenant colonel with a distinctly Asian face had already
Dying.
The lieutenant colonel's legs were cut off completely, but the sharp spike that passed through his chest was still there.
Surrounding them was the corpse of a Zerg Lurker, which had been blasted to pieces by grenades and rail snipers. It was even bigger than a tank, shaped like a ferocious tarantula, and its limbs were covered with dark brown veins.
The butyl carapace has a sharp bone spur at the tip that can tear through the armor of the arc tank's front fender. The ugly head with red eyes has a sharp horn that is 6 or 7 feet long.
The attack method of this creature is extremely insidious. They will bury themselves deep in the ground and wait for their prey to appear.
The surroundings were filled with the corpses of UED soldiers and the burning remains of armored vehicles, but no hybrids could be seen. In comparison, the number of Zerg corpses was greater, but the Zerg swarm didn't care at all.
Atlas Wing's 6th Airborne Division lost 3,000 men in the first hour of landing at Char and the rest in the next 20 minutes.
As an elite unit that performs main offensive missions, the 6th Airborne Division faces the Tiamat swarm of Cerebrate Dagoth, one of the most powerful insect nests, with a large number of Hunter-Slayer Hydralisks and Devourer Springtails.
.
At the beginning, although the losses were too heavy, the division's attack went smoothly. They miraculously opened a passage in the insect nest, and the division commander immediately ordered to continue advancing.
But that turned out to be a trap.
Dagos, the Cerebrate, was distracted from controlling the huge swarm of Tiamat, and could still pay attention to this battlefield. It ordered the zerg here to retreat temporarily, attracting the human army to continue to penetrate deeper.
Hundreds of insidious lurkers of the insect swarm were waiting quietly on their way forward. When most of the main force of the 6th Division stepped into them, rows of lurker spikes burst out of the ground, tearing them apart like a mountain.
All the vehicles and heavy firepower groups of the division were destroyed. Then a large number of Hunter-Slayer Hydralisks emerged from the Nydus Worms and quickly completed the encirclement, swallowing thousands of people.
"I was born on Earth and took root in Char." The ued lieutenant colonel said his last few words before his death:
"Stay alive, friends."
Amid the rising stars, the last few Atlas Marines looked up and looked to the rear. For some reason, the expected reserve troops never arrived.
Looking forward again, in the light of the magma spewed by the volcanic eruption and the fire of the lava lake, the towering organic buildings of Char's main nest looked like black shadows. The roars of the insects on all sides became more and more dense, and it seemed that they could not be killed at all.
It's clean and not scary at all.
Several UED marines suddenly felt desperate. They came to protect the earth, but their sacrifices now have no meaning.
Suddenly, a tank shell landed not far from the UED soldiers and caused a huge explosion. They immediately rolled and crawled out of the trench. Fortunately, the finely crafted power armor shields were enough to withstand the attack at this distance.
Splattered shell shrapnel.
"Hey, you weak Earthlings, your Revolutionary Army grandfather is here." An arc siege tank with red paint all over its body accelerated from the side, followed by more tanks with roaring artillery fire.
These tanks are all painted in gold and red, with the symbol of the Korhal Revolutionary Army - a kite-shaped shield coat of arms, with a golden five-pointed star on a clenched arm.
"Are you crazy?" One of the sergeants suddenly roared. He had just received news from the headquarters indicating that Charles's revolutionary army was now their friendly force.
"If the shell had hit just a few inches off target, we would have been doomed."
The red siege tank slowed down slightly beside them, and a young blond woman with dark camouflage on her cheeks emerged from under the turret hatch. She wore two braids and a bulging chest.
Wearing a breathable red T-shirt.
"What does this have to do with anything?" she said, "I am here to cheer you on. How can you kneel down and fight with insects?"
