Fortunately, Cerebrate's analysis was quickly transmitted to Kajal's mind, otherwise he would have started to doubt Chongsheng.
It turns out that Cagat's command level has not improved. It has improved compared to what he remembered before, but the progress is limited.
The exaggerated battle losses come from Cagat's new arms. The number of new arms is not large, but it has a magical effect, greatly improving the combat effectiveness of Swarm.
After investing huge amounts of computing power, Cerebrate cracked the secret of Defiler, which is a peculiar gene combination. There are ready-made samples in the Swarm gene library. If Kajal needs it, he can copy it immediately.
But facing the worms, he had no choice. Without the theory of Psionics, even an existence like Swarm, which has reached the pinnacle of genetic technology, is still a skillful woman.
"Could it be that Cagaat is actually very smart? He is relatively mediocre in combat command and development of Hatchery, but he is very good at researching technology and inventing new arms?" Cagaat has begun to doubt his previous knowledge.
No, he came to take revenge on Cagat, not to admire him.
In just one hour after his landing, Swarm had only six million left. Their sacrifice also brought a lot of information to Kagar.
In the Eastern Hemisphere, he gathered 100,000 Swarm warships, aimed at the weak spots detected by the battle bugs, and began to cover them with firepower.
A large number of Brood Lord and Swarm Leviathans aimed their muzzles filled with acid and plasma energy at the target. Corruptor had insufficient firepower to penetrate the atmosphere, so in order to maintain sufficient power, they prepared to take a dive strike.
Corruptor's dive is to rush into the atmosphere by itself, fire several rounds of acid bombs, and then rush out of the atmosphere again and return to the safety of space.
When Kagat received the reminder from Cerebrate, it was already too late. He could only order the Swarm units covered by fire to hide themselves.
The sky turned completely blue-green. Green is high-temperature corrosive acid bombs, and blue is plasma that can melt everything. They are as thick as an impenetrable wall of sighs, and their number is like a never-ending doomsday rainstorm.
The spore tower group in the Eastern Hemisphere and the nearby battle Swarm suffered a huge blow. An area of 100,000 square kilometers was covered indiscriminately, including a large number of Kagar's own fighting bugs.
"Kagar is crazy! Fighting so fiercely!" Kagar cursed and began to count the losses, and then commanded the troops to start a counterattack.
Civil wars between Swarm rarely use such ecologically destructive orbital bombings. It is not easy for Hatchery to transform a valuable planet bit by bit, and the cost is very high. There is no need for civil war to be so ruthless.
The firepower of the orbital bombardment exposed the position of the fleet in space, and Cagat became angry. He immediately ordered his Swarm fleet and the spore tower to counterattack with firepower.
From the ground to space, fighting low and high has to overcome gravity. The power of Kagat's fire counterattack is relatively weak, but the effect is quite amazing.
The atmosphere seemed to be ignited by all kinds of counterattack firepower. Not a single cloud could leave a trace in this environment. Acid bombs, high-energy plasma, and gigabit artillery shells brought death to Kagar's Swarm fleet.
Kajal, who had anticipated the counterattack, had already ordered the Swarm fleet to spread out its positions, but many of them were predicted and beaten into bloody powder.
This round of attacks resulted in the loss of 2,513 Swarm warships. Cerebrate accurately recorded the losses and calculated the enemy's strike direction through ballistics.
Without hesitation, Kagar ordered the fleet to continue to cover the calculated target with firepower.
Separated by a piece of atmosphere, the two sides began to exchange fire for several hours. Although it was difficult for both sides to determine their results due to the gray fog spores, both sides were very happy to do so.
In Kagar's view, his own firepower does not need to overcome gravity, and there are more warships, so blind fire like this is more advantageous.
Kagat was more willing. Compared with the fist-to-bone exchanges between the Swarm fleets in space, such exchanges were much softer. The atmosphere would more or less reduce the power and accuracy of the weapons. He could also use the Psionics of Youworm as a cheat.
After long-term actual combat and data collection of Cerebrate, the worms have taken a step further to control Psionics. A large number of worms began to connect to the grid and use Psionics to pump up the water in the ocean.
It forms a barrier made of Psionics mixed with water. When necessary, the water can be turned into ice to resist more powerful attacks. This skill is very similar to Frost Serpent's protective frost mist.
It's just that when this skill is released in the worm, it has better effect and stronger defense.
Under the defense of Psionics Frost Mist, Kagat's losses were extremely small. After fighting for several hours, the loss was less than 3,000.
Of course, using Psionics on such a large scale also comes at a cost. The mental power in Swarm Network has been diverted too much, and many Swarm units have no energy, and are sleepy, slow, and sluggish.
In a fierce war, this situation is very dangerous, but Cagat doesn't care much anymore, his mission has been completed.
Kagar, who had lost 30,000 Swarm fleet, looked a little gloomy. How come the fire counterattack from the ground did not drop much after the exchange of fire for so long?
When he was about to mobilize more Swarm battleships, Cerebrate reminded him that he had detected vibrations in hyperspace. It should also be the Swarm fleet, with a size of about one hundred thousand.
All wars Cerebrate began to give frantic warnings. They unanimously judged that they had fallen into a trap. Cagat's persistence on the planet was just to wait for this moment to be attacked from both sides.
The expression on Kajal's face was very exciting. It was rare for a Hydralisk to have such rich expressions. He felt like he was being suppressed by his IQ.
Kagat has a total of 180,000 Swarm fleets!! With the help of that Psionics Swarm unit, the combat power has been unbalanced, and the calculation results of Cerebrate are all huge defeats.
He ordered the fleet of 100,000 Swarm to continue to occupy the favorable terrain in the planet's orbit and hold back the 80,000 Swarm fleet on the planet. Then Kagar himself led the fleet of 170,000 Swarm to turn back and prepare for a decisive battle with the 100,000 enemies outflanked.
Of course, you can't beat this, and the quality gap is very obvious.
However, as long as you can create a gap and let yourself escape regardless of casualties, you may be able to do it. As long as the core node is there, Hatchery is there.
Kajal lost this war, but he was unwilling to surrender.
How could he surrender to Cagat after teasing and humiliating him like this? Even if he lost, he would not surrender even if the Swarm fleet was wiped out.
Although Swarm will basically not kill core nodes during the civil war, after all, the unified Swarm is united.
However, he, Kagar, was the third in the simulated battle. He wanted to surrender to Kagart, who was thirty meters away, but he couldn't do it because he wanted to save face.
Because of Kajal's anger, his entire Swarm Network became angry, and his Swarm began to roar, and they were ready to fight to the death.
