"That won't work. Consuming mental power also consumes combat power. The areas we are responsible for are divided into divisions. If your Swarm fleet is attacked now, I will still have mental power to support you." Moras's words became even more ironic.
Instead of helping, Zaire was still making sarcastic remarks. Moraes' words made Zaire very unhappy. She directly blocked Moraes' words and turned her attention back to the battlefield.
"Hmph, damn Moras, you are just relying on your mistress's favor. Sooner or later, I will let you kneel at my feet."
Swarm of Zagara has a tradition of competing with each other and trying to undermine each other. Although Zagara scoffed at Kundera's accusation that her thoughts would split Swarm, she herself attached great importance to Swarm's loyalty to her.
Therefore, her important Swarm Node were not hatched by Hatchery, but produced by herself. She wanted to use this blood connection to strengthen Swarm Node's loyalty to her.
Therefore, these nodes do not call Zagara by name, but call her the mother.
This is completely different from Zhang Han. Even if there is a superior-subordinate relationship between nodes, they communicate with each other equally. This is the case between Cam and Chloe, and between Typhon and Johnny.
There are differences in authority between Swarm, but there is no gap in status. In terms of respect, everything under Overmind is equal.
The exchange just now caused Zaire's attention to shift. Several balls of blood-red red mist enveloped several Corruptor that were bombing and defending Swarm.
Corruptor immediately started rolling and screaming in pain, so much so that he couldn't control himself and fell from the sky.
Of course, Blood Mist Insect will not let go of Corruptor. The characteristics of rapid growth and rapid death make the blood worms even more greedy for the flesh and blood of Consume. Even if Corruptor is dead, the blood mist is still devouring its corpse.
Without the bombing of Corruptor, a large number of fighting insects crossed the trenches filled with their own insect corpses and began to attack Zaire's defensive positions.
Zaire immediately formed a line of defense with Zergling and Roach, and mobilized firepower from Roach and Hydralisk to cover Zergling, who was the fastest and the first to rush.
It seems that Zergling alone cannot shake this line of defense. A large number of Zergling were melted by acid, pierced by steel needles, and blown to pieces by plasma during the battle.
The turning point happened quickly. That special red mist appeared in Zaire's long-range strike Swarm, causing a huge blow to the dense long-range Swarm.
This time Zaire saw clearly that it was the red mist released by a special scorpion-like insect unit. She immediately ordered the fast-moving Mutalisk and self-exploding mosquitoes to eliminate it.
Perhaps knowing that he had been discovered, the scorpion spread its wings and flew up, leading Mutalisk into the range of its own long-range attack on Swarm. Zaire's Mutalisk and self-destructing mosquitoes were wiped out by Hydralisk.
When Mutalisk was about to catch the flying scorpion, the flying scorpion suddenly dived and escaped into a hole in the ground. It dug downwards with its front paws and dug deeper and deeper, escaping the pursuit.
Because of the pursuit of Defiler, who was specially trained by Zhang Han, Zaire showed another flaw. On a hill in the defense line, the mountain suddenly shook and the ground collapsed.
A large number of Zaire's combat bugs fell into the pit and were quickly killed by Nydus Worm and Consume.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of Zerglings with wings and enhanced jumping abilities jumped out of the ground through the dust raised by the subsidence, and got into a melee with the nearby Hydralisks and Huo Roachs.
Such a clever tactic is naturally not directed by the war Cerebrate who stayed behind Hatchery, but by the human nature Zhang Han who uses his strong mental power to conduct remote command.
In the plan, he is also preparing to abandon most of the galaxies and provide all the Swarm fleet hatched from the Hatchery production capacity to Cadian's main battlefield.
The battles in the past few days were extremely fierce. During the intense period, more than 30,000 Swarm fleets were lost every day. Zhang Han couldn't figure out how many Swarm fleets Zagara sent to attack him. One of the meteorite fortresses was also destroyed.
It completely turned into a strangling battle that left both sides bleeding. It can be described as a space version of the Battle of Stalingrad.
On the destroyed meteorite fortress, Zhang Han and Zagara each invested more than 10 billion combat insects, and countless insect corpses died on every piece of land on the meteorite.
Fortunately, Creep belongs to Zhang Han, so he can recover it and continue hatching it, otherwise it would be impossible to withstand such battle damage.
The intensity of this kind of battle far exceeds the battle with Stellaris Council. In comparison, the previous battles are simply the difference between a village chief's fight and a world war.
When I think of Kundera engaging in such battles every day, Zhang Han wonders if he is just a novice who got into the big boss's game.
In the end, Zagara couldn't afford it anymore, so he used fighting Hatchery to hit it and destroyed a meteorite fortress.
Precisely because of such strong pressure on the front line, human nature Zhang Han must use the resources at hand to hold back Zagara's squadron as much as possible even if it loses the galaxy.
After ten days at most, the fleets of Cagat and Chloe will be back, and they will try to counterattack then. Annihilating Zagara's squadron is not the focus, just block it. You can't have too much competitiveness. As long as you have the desire to win, it will be easy for Zagara to catch gaps and flaws.
The underground raid just now did not just take place on a hillside, but took place in the entire war zone spanning hundreds of kilometers. Zhang Han also discovered a problem. As long as there are enough multi-line attacks, the command nodes will always make mistakes. It is very similar to strategic games such as Star Wars.
This is a competition between computing power and consciousness. Zhang Han found that as the time spent in combat became longer and longer, his tactical level also improved rapidly, especially since Overmind's consciousness provided him with combat experience every moment.
Zagara The logical consciousness of this squadron seems to be no match for him in command.
Soon, Zaire was mobilized by Zhang Han. She had to deploy more combat bugs to maintain the front, and at the same time sent more Corruptor to provide air support. In particular, she sent a large number of Mutalisk to try to win through air superiority.
"Fell into a trap." Zhang Han sneered and launched his own arrangement.
The Hydralisks lurking underground suddenly appeared and used dense steel needles to tie up a large number of Mutalisks into a hornet's nest. Then came the Defilers hidden among the Swarms. Their blood mist once again severely damaged some Corruptors that flew too low.
Zaire, which had no countermeasures at all, had to mobilize more troops to fight. The result was that its defense line was empty again.
Zhang Han was not polite. He mobilized his Swarm mental power and used Psionic Storm to clear out the fighting insects that Zaire had arranged to defend next to Hatchery., and then used a mixed force of Zergling, Baneling, and Ultralisk with enhanced combat effectiveness to kill the Hatchery that had not yet been hatched.
