Chapter 4455： , Retreat and arm

Facing the Zerg army's counterattack this time, they will never die.

On the expeditionary side, led by Delk, after the generals of the various forces expressed their opinions, they have clearly conveyed this meaning to the orc army in order to appease them.

But if you want them to act immediately, that's not realistic.

It's not just that they have just retired, and the state of their troops is not good, there are a lot of things waiting for them to deal with.

The main reason is that there is not only one planet in this border area, and they don't know from which point the Zerg will attack it!

Don't forget, they captured this universe from the Zerg.

In other words, the Zerg knows all about the planetary distribution in this universe.

Adequate intelligence can make the opponent's entire offensive strategy easier to arrange. This is obviously not good news for the expeditionary force as the defender.

With this as the premise, before the Zerg’s operations, if they deploy troops to reinforce a certain planet without authorization, at that time, if the Zerg’s army does not attack that planet, wouldn’t they be busy doing it for nothing? ?

In fact, it’s just a waste of work, it’s better to say, I’m afraid that as soon as the other side turns his head, they will immediately attack another planet they have not focused on. At that time, there will be no time to mobilize the troops. The gap will open. The position, I'm afraid, was completely destroyed by the Zerg.

Although the orc army is not good at strategy, this kind of basic idea is undoubtedly understood. After obtaining the assurance from the generals such as Delk, they began to concentrate on preparing to deal with the insects that might swept toward their planetary strongholds. tide.

It is not the first time that the orc army has been encircled and suppressed by Zerg troops, but compared to the previous time, the size of the Zerg’s forces this time is undoubtedly even greater.

This point can be clearly seen from the previous battle where the worms destroyed their border defenses.

This is also the main reason why the orc army will be so nervous this time.

In comparison, other forces have to calm down a lot of emotions in this area.

The fundamental reason lies in their defensive advantages.

The border defense line was not built well, and after the border defense line fell, there was no way to talk about the second line of defense.

However, although there is no second line of defense, there is a certain degree of defense on the planets they occupy.

Especially the various science and technology armies are quite capable of deploying defenses at home.

On the contrary, in the expeditionary army, the weakest in the matter of home defense is the orc army.

There is no technological development in itself, so there is no efficient defense. Needless to say.

But the root cause is that the orcs are a race mainly of offense and aggression.

Every time the orc army initiates a war, its core tactics are very clear, that is, attack, attack and then attack! For the orc army, offense is the best defense!

Under this premise, after so many years, the orc army really hasn't fought any defensive battles seriously.

The combination of all these factors made the orc army, which had always been brave and fearless in previous wars, a little anxious when it was over.

Although their Orcs Federation does not mind losing some population appropriately and slowing down their own development pressure, once there is a situation that can pose a sufficient threat to them and cause a large-scale loss of the young and middle-aged combat power of their orc army, Even an army of orcs who are used to being reckless to the end will actually retreat appropriately.

This wave is undoubtedly the case.

Within the orc army, the commanders and generals of all races have already felt the threat from it.

Their wild instincts are over there.

Even the worst has been prepared in my heart.

At that point, they will directly abandon the planets in the border area and retreat, and have no plans to fight to the end with the Zerg army.

Of course, if you can hold it before you reach that point, you must hold it.

There is no need to say how precious the resources of a planet are, and for the Orc Federation, which has low productivity, its value is naturally greater. If it is not a last resort, the orcs will never eat it. The meat in the mouth, let me spit it out again!

During the period, due to the expeditionary force's retreat in the previous border battle, the Zerg army, under the command of Baltha, almost easily invaded this universe.

The loss and consumption of itself are not large, so naturally there is no need to spend too much time on rest.

Maintaining his momentum of victory and pursuit, Baltha seized the opportunity but didn't even have the idea of ​​letting go of the expeditionary army.

However, just like the generals of the Expeditionary Army guessed, Baltha, who is very familiar with the distribution of planets in this universe, has no intention of commanding the army and directly attacking the planet closest to him. UU reading

Instead, he turned his head and locked another offensive point on this line of defense built by the connection between the planets and launched an offensive.

"It's Planet 6 in the border area!"

The intelligence feedback came back, and on the remote meeting, the generals quickly locked the attack point chosen by the Zerg.

Excluding the distance factor, there are two planets on this border, which are relatively remote.

This makes it take more time to support the surrounding planets once a war breaks out.

At that time, when confirming this line of defense, the generals had already highlighted the two planets.

Although there is no way to say that the opposing commander will take one of the two planets 100%, but the probability is not small if you think about it.

Out of this consideration, the expeditionary army also sent a small force first to ambush near the two planets for emergency purposes. Afterwards, even if they ambush a lonely The impact will not be too great.

And of the two planets, one was occupied by the orc army of the Orc Federation, and the other was occupied by the army of the Otto Empire.

Among them, the orc army occupied it, which happened to be the sixth planet.

At this point, the generals of the orc army can only think that they are unlucky.

After sending out the signal for help, his energy quickly focused on responding to the insect infestation.

During this period, a request for help from planet 6 was confirmed. On the two relatively closest planets to planet 6, the forces that had been assembled a long time ago were waiting to depart.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, outside the defensive circle of the two planets, the highest-level alarm was sent at the same time.

An overwhelming tide of insects is sweeping towards them!
