Chapter 538 The Empire’s Targeted Plan
After a while the battle ended.
This battle didn't last long.
Because during the battle, the players also sent cannon fodder bugs to attack several other bases, so they had to allocate part of their energy to deal with bugs in other areas.
Although those on that side were completely crushed by the empire, even if they could crush these bugs, it would not mean much, because they needed to clean up these bugs before they could support the base over there.
But after they cleaned up these cannon fodder bugs, the battle at Base 3 was basically over. And from the beginning of the battle, when the players found out that the other party was intending to kite with them, they immediately came up with a plan. .
Run directly to attack the bridge jumping facility, because players know very well that as long as this thing is raised, it will be impossible for the opponent to come to support even if they want to come over. At the same time, the opponent's combat warships will never give them this opportunity. It was so easy to destroy this transportation facility.
Considering the safety of jumping off the bridge, they will definitely resist it with all their strength. Sure enough, when the players take action.
The enemy's warships that were still dealing with the players immediately gathered here, and then they had no choice but to engage in a head-on duel with the players.
This would be fine if it was a matter of consumption in the early stage, but once they faced the front, the empire had no advantage in terms of quality or quantity, so it didn't take long for their troops to be almost wiped out by the players.
The players who had finished all this were naturally not idle. They immediately began to clean up the battlefield, and now the battle was over.
"Brothers, I never expected that this battle would be won so easily."
"Although we have known for a long time that we will definitely win this battle, I still feel a little emotional after we actually win."
"Yes, in order to fight them, we used all kinds of methods, and finally we could barely win. But now, we can win directly without any so-called conspiracy and tricks."
After the battle was over, the players were busy discussing.
The harvest from this battle far exceeded the players' expectations, because this wave of players obtained nearly 6 million units of ore.
This amount also shocked the players.
"Holy shit, I never thought this empire could be so rich. You know, this is just one of their many bases."
"Yes."
"Originally, I thought that having one or two million units in a base like this would be extraordinary, but who would have thought that I was superficial."
The main reason why players have such thoughts is that they have stayed in the new universe for too long.
Their values are all affected to a certain extent by the universe over there.
For the civilization over there, millions of units can basically be regarded as a large expense, but it is different here. Here, the million-level unit is basically a waste.
After all, there is an essential difference between sharing the same mining area with one person and 10 people, but for players, they naturally like to hear things like this.
After all, the fatter the civilians here are, the more they will earn, and the more they earn, the closer they will be to their goals.
Although players know very well that even with the current amount of resource acquisition, trying to create a Titan is tantamount to wishful thinking. But at least they have a hope that their output will be enough to make Titan within a certain period of time.
After cleaning up the place like this, the players all went back home. At the same time, compared to the players, the calm empire was exploding.
Because they lost this battle, and their losses to the players actually reached an astonishing 10:1.
Of course, the empire is also very clear about such battle losses. It is mainly due to quantitative reasons that the casualties of their aircraft are very serious. If the numbers are equal, this ratio will be infinitely closer.
If the two sides are about the same strength, the Empire estimates that they should be evenly matched with the Zerg at a 50-50 ratio.
Although this matter was nothing on the surface, the senior officials of the empire were well aware of the seriousness of the matter.
It was in a certain conference room in the empire.
"There is news from Base 3, it should be a defeat"
At this time, as the leader's voice fell, the people below couldn't help but whisper.
"Why did we lose?"
"What is the battle loss ratio between the two sides?"
"One to ten."
At this time, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed when they heard the battle damage. It was obvious that they also felt a little incredible about the current result.
As if he saw everyone's doubts, or for other reasons, he only heard the leader speak slowly.
"You don't need to worry too much about this. The reason why there are such battle losses is mainly because the number of insects on the swarm is much larger than the base garrison.
Moreover, several surrounding bases were also attacked by insect swarms at the same time. Although the insect swarms attacking the surrounding bases were not very strong, even so, they still played a role in delaying time. ”
At this point, the leader continued to speak.
"If we have the same number, we are not inferior to them, but you must have discovered that the strength of the insect swarm has soared too fast."
Everyone frowned after hearing this, and after a long time only one person said.
"I didn't expect them to evolve so fast. It's only been so long. If this trend continues, I guess it won't be long before they surpass us."
"And through this battle, I can basically confirm that the bugs should have discovered us in advance and have been setting up here for a long time."
"Otherwise they wouldn't launch attacks in other areas. After all, if they don't know much about us, how would they know about our other strongholds." "So it's obvious that this group of bugs has been here a long time ago and has been exploring the surrounding areas. It’s got to be clear.”
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but look dark.
"For us, this is not good news, because if this trend continues, I estimate that our bases will still be attacked by the swarm"
"Of course, this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that according to the current evolution speed of the Zerg, I estimate that it won't be long before they can completely surpass us."
"The next thing is troublesome."
"If we cannot eliminate the slave group in the short term or if we cannot significantly improve the current technological level, then the fate that awaits us will be destruction."
Thinking of this at this time, all the people in the empire could not help but fall silent.
Their civilization has gone through too many years since its development. As the overlords of the universe, the territory they command can be said to be unheard of.
Before the super civilization directly appeared, they could be regarded as the pinnacle of the universe. However, in order to pursue a more advanced civilization, they chose to take risks.
It was also because of this adventure that they fell into a dangerous situation.
From the initial rise of the Zerg, to the later period when the Zerg lured the starry behemoths and other civilizations to attack it, and now, the development of the Zerg has become irresistible.
The empire also made a very detailed summary and statistics of the development of insects during this period.
First of all, it is certain that the evolution of insects did not occur as they imagined. Not only was it fast, but most importantly, it was smooth sailing.
"We can't continue like this. Combining our current understanding of the swarm, we can basically determine that this civilization, if left alone, will move to a higher level."
"Although we and them are evenly matched now, if we really fight, we may fail, because compared to them, we have a fatal flaw, that is, we are currently in the stage of rebuilding civilization, as well as our military strength, production The speed is far less than their reproduction speed, so if we continue to fight against them, sooner or later we will be wiped out by them.”
"As for surrender, it is even more impossible. Combining our understanding of the swarm and everything we have experienced during this period, we can basically be sure that the goal of the swarm from beginning to end is to eliminate us, and even to wipe out the entire universe. Other civilizations were also wiped out.
After all, for them, those who are not our race must have different minds. Compared to the insect swarm, although those civilizations are not friendly to us, in their plan, they should treat us as sheep in the pen. Sheep pens. ”
"In the past, we have been developing according to their plans, so they did not take action against us. But the last time the starry sky monster attacked, we used things that should not be used to this extent. It is also for this reason that now they also Showed hostility to us ”
"Although it's unclear why they didn't search the entire universe for us and send a large army to attack us, it's not important anymore. What's important is that if we want to eliminate the insect swarm now, we can only rely on them."
Upon hearing this, everyone already understood the next plan.
"If we contact them proactively, will they attack us directly?"
"There is a possibility, but the possibility is not high, especially after they know the current situation of the Zerg, they will never act rashly."
"For us, we only need to tell them this news, and then they will also consider taking action against the Zerg. And because of the uncertainty of the news, they are definitely like this. They will not destroy us and will only use us to understand the Zerg. The situation of the group.”
"Our discovered bases will not wait long before they are attacked by the swarms, so for us, it would not be a loss for us to use these bases as test sites for them."
"And it is absolutely impossible for them to take action against us before this matter is settled."
"It doesn't matter even if they want to take action. We can transfer resources and transfer all useful things to another information. Even if they discover all the surrounding bases, it will not have much impact on us."
"If we do this, we will lose at most dozens of relatives around us, but the benefit we can gain is that the insect swarm will fight against these super civilizations. Once they fight against the super civilization, then we will not need to worry about the insect swarm. Because with the strength of the heavy group, it is absolutely impossible for them to defeat these super civilizations.”
"And these super civilizations, after knowing the situation of the insect swarm, they will definitely not let this race develop."
"So we don't need to worry about what happens next. By then we only need to lose most of the area to wipe out all the bugs and eliminate this hidden danger."
In this way, everyone agreed to this method after some discussion.
For the empire, the current group is much more dangerous than those super civilizations, because those super civilizations, after being together for such a long time, will never do anything to them as long as they do not violate the rules, but Bugs are different. As long as they see you, they will attack you directly.
Of course, this is not the point. The point is that the super civilization also has things to deal with that they don't know about. At least like the last time things fell out, the super civilization only sent a few fleets to search for them in the universe.
The remaining fleets don’t know what they are doing. In short, they have not been sent over. Through this, they have also guessed that the super civilization may also have its own things to do, and they cannot spend too much energy and time on their own side. .
For them, this is undoubtedly good news.
Because at least even if they are targeted by a super civilization, they have room for relaxation, unlike the insect swarm that just stares at them when they are targeted by him.
This is why they are so looking forward to the insect swarm now. Thinking of the empire here, they immediately started a large-scale mobilization, and they began to transfer the resources in this area to other areas.
Because they all know that once they contact a super civilization and expose their coordinates, the super civilization will definitely launch a large-scale search for the surrounding areas, which will mean that all bases around them will be exposed.
Therefore, they must transfer these resources to other areas to ensure the safety of the resources. As long as they have resources, everything is easy for them.
In this way, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to the empire's plan. In fact, for the empire, the star destroyer in their hands can be regarded as a big trump card.
For super civilizations, it would normally be difficult for them to invade their own side on a large scale if they did not deal with this warship. But if they wanted to deal with this warship, they would have to send a large number of troops.
But now this civilization cannot send out a large number of troops, which means that even if their plan fails in the end, the super civilization does not take action against the Zerg, but instead attacks them, and they still have a certain way to retreat.
After all, as an old civilization, even if they know that their behavior is risky, they will find ways to minimize the risk.
For the empire, it is also very troublesome to transfer supplies from these bases. After all, the reserves of supplies are too large, and even if they mobilize all the transportation capacity, it will take a long time.
