Chapter 938: This battle! I will not retreat until the Zerg are destroyed!
If at this moment, there were a'sky eye' that could observe the space around the entire cosmic wormhole, it would find a dark mass of worm fleets!
The sheer number was terrifying.
It is estimated that even if some giant planets were thrown in, these Zerg could digest them in the shortest amount of time.
Furthermore, these Zerg fleets have begun to advance in twos and threes in their respective directions.
They were so hungry, they needed to hunt, they needed food!
In the process, some interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships that were unable to evacuate in time inevitably became the first casualties of this battle.
But their sacrifice secured firsthand intelligence from the battlefield.
Furthermore, some of the remaining detectors would promptly transmit enemy intelligence back.
T5 Dragon Emperor Starship - Bridge
More than an hour had passed since the insect swarm appeared, and several senior commanders from various legion fleets began their first wartime meeting.
Zhao Chen sat in the main seat, looking at the holographic images that had all arrived.
"Commander, everyone is here," Lilith said softly, standing behind Zhao Chen.
Originally, according to Zhao Chen's idea, Lilith should have sat next to him.
But Lilith said she was just a secretary, and a secretary should stand behind their commander; she preferred that position herself.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade him otherwise, Zhao Chen had no choice but to acquiesce.
"You've all seen the latest battlefield intelligence, right?" Zhao Chen said, looking at everyone in the conference room.
The atmosphere was somewhat heavy.
"Your Excellency, regarding the intelligence..."
Among the Zerg fleet strength that has been identified, there are already eleven T5 Leviathan Sovereign-class Zerg hive motherships.
"Is that really true?" High Archangel Berkeley asked seriously first.
"I hope that I will not hear this kind of questioning again."
"This is the enemy situation we discovered after sacrificing three T4 Banshee-class light interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships." Zhao Chen's voice was devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
High Angel Jesse said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I apologize for Berkeley's rudeness."
According to intelligence reports, the number of Zerg fleets that have been identified so far exceeds 30 million.
This quantity...
At this point, High Angel Jesse's gaze became somewhat complicated: "I hope that we should consider this battle more carefully."
We also need to contact the Angel King again.
Zhao Chen tapped his fingers on the table and said calmly, "To be precise, the vast majority of these 30 million Zerg motherships are only T1 and T2 Zerg motherships."
According to current investigations, the number of T4 Zerg motherships is less than five thousand.
“But...” The high angel Jesse’s attitude at this moment clearly showed that he was not optimistic about this battle.
After all, it's really hard to imagine the scene of using more than two million interstellar warships to defend against a Zerg fleet of thirty million.
"You just need to follow our agreement," Zhao Chen said coldly.
As expected, people who are not on the same boat will not be able to unite their hearts.
The people from the three great empires remained silent here, even if they were filled with fear.
The Angels are different. While the Zerg do pose a threat to them, it's currently just a 'chronic disease,' especially considering the presence of the Mechs in between.
If it weren't for the capabilities of the Wyvern, the Angels wouldn't have wasted their forces here.
"Jesse, stop talking."
"Since we've already made our agreement, we'll fight here." Angel Tilia stopped her two subordinates from speaking further.
She looked at Zhao Chen: "Our angel race keeps its promises, and we will honor our agreement."
Zhao Chen ignored the angels.
He said seriously, "I don't want to say anything inspiring here."
The Zerg fleet is already on its way to attack, and the fastest one is estimated to clash with our lines in about an hour.
Everything proceeded according to our pre-established tactical plan.
Although you come from three great empires and different star systems.
But here we are, fighting for the future of our home.
Perhaps we can retreat now, we can escape.
But where can we escape to for the Zerg?
We can escape, but can our wives and children escape?
At least, I won't leave.
I can assure you.
My flagship, the Dragon Emperor, and I will stand guard at the primary position to the death.
Zhao Chen slammed his fist on the table.
"Lord Dragon, please rest assured, our Dragon Tiger Legion is willing to live and die with this position!" Chief Ted said confidently, placing his hand on his chest.
"This old man hasn't fought such an exciting battle in a long time."
"It's just an insect, just stomp it to death." Marshal Chu Changhe stroked his white beard.
"This is our home, and I will never let these insects run rampant in my home again!" Empress Saint Cana clenched her fists, her belief unwavering despite the fear in her heart.
"We are willing to stand with the Commander through thick and thin!" The Xiaolong generals saluted Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen stood up and returned the salute to the crowd: "I will not retreat until the Zerg are destroyed!"
"I will not retreat until the Zerg are destroyed!"
"I will not retreat until the Zerg are destroyed!"
"I will not retreat until the Zerg are destroyed!"
As slogans were shouted, the lights and shadows in the conference room disappeared.
This pre-war meeting has now come to an end.
Zhao Chen stood up, straightened his military uniform, picked up his military cap which he hadn't worn in a long time, put it on and straightened it, and silently walked out of the conference room.
Lilith followed behind.
The two returned to the bridge.
The officers and crew on the bridge noticed the commander's return, but they all continued to carry out their duties diligently.
They would only give a slight bow when they were close enough, and then immediately get back to their work.
This time, Zhao Chen didn't sit on that comfortable sofa, but instead sat in the captain's chair of the T5 Dragon Emperor interstellar command ship.
His eyes were fixed intently on the interstellar war sand table before him, watching as the red zone, like a black torrent, began to surge outwards from the center of the cosmic wormhole.
It seemed to want to swallow up all those golden dots of varying sizes.
"It's just thirty million bugs, we can just stomp on them for a while longer," Zhao Chen said coldly.
I wonder if it was just a coincidence.
The first place to clash with the Zerg was the main position where Zhao Chen's T5 Dragon Emperor interstellar command ship was located, and based on the enemy's attack route observed so far.
The number of Zerg fleets swarming towards the No. 1 main position was also the largest.
Zhao Chen simply smiled at this situation.
Just as he said.
This battle! The Zerg shall not perish! I shall not retreat!
