Interstellar Super Planter

The imperial high command did not want to immediately wage a war against the entire nation, nor could they accommodate all the people in the medium-sized star system. There were too many people and the finances could not support it. The hundreds of millions of residents could only save themselves. Everyone worked together to fight against the Zerg and defend their home.

The people can no longer cower behind the soldiers for protection. Soldiers are also human; they too fear death. The nationwide war of resistance has begun, and the mercenaries killing the insectoids is just the beginning.

Throughout history, whenever the human world has been invaded by the Zerg, the entire population has mobilized to fight until the very last moment to kill the queen. If we don't prepare now, the Zerg will launch a full-scale attack, and it will be too late once our army is wiped out.

Lin Yuyang showed satisfaction with some of the outstanding mercenary squads that killed the insectoid race. He thought to himself that he was in charge of managing hundreds of thousands of mercenaries, and if they were trained well, they would be a powerful force. As long as the Empire could equip them with advanced weapons and equipment, they could hold off the insectoid army for a while and buy time for the non-combat personnel in the rear to evacuate.

The Empire is now fighting on two fronts. Its several legions have been fighting the Zerg for a long time and are very experienced. According to military intelligence, the defense line has been stabilized and all the inhabitants of the planets have been evacuated with virtually no casualties.
Unlike this star system, which was completely unprepared and suddenly attacked by the Zerg, large areas of the star system were conquered in a short period of time, and countless soldiers and civilians perished.

If the Zerg didn't need to digest the massive amounts of energy they plundered and hatch more Zerg soldiers to further expand their territory, the snowballing momentum would probably continue, and it wouldn't be the protracted war we're in now.

I'm afraid there's not much time left. Several months have already passed, and their energy is probably almost depleted. Once all the larvae have hatched, that will be the time for the Zerg to launch a major offensive.

Those with insight in the military knew that the Zerg could not be stopped, even if all the troops were used up. A nationwide war was imperative, and every citizen of the Empire had to contribute.

The Empire's call for mercenaries to come to the battlefield is only the first step. Once they are no longer afraid and dare to kill the Zerg, and after receiving military training, they will be conscripted into the army to fight against the Zerg army. Most of the residents in the rear will also do the same. The military will conscript soldiers on the spot and fill the massive number of residents into the major legions, using the vast star field to disperse the Zerg and gradually eliminate them.

Although the Zerg are numerous, the Empire has accumulated a much larger population over tens of thousands of years, making them comparable in numbers to humans. Moreover, in recent years, the Empire's weapons have been advancing rapidly, with breakthroughs every year. In particular, many new weapons specifically designed to counter the Zerg have been gradually put into use on the battlefield, and ordinary people can operate them, making it easy to kill low-level Zerg.

Lin Yuyang and others were the instructors in charge of military training. The Empire did not publicly announce this plan, but tacitly approved the military's actions.

After all, the population base of a medium-sized star system is so large that it is not a problem to relocate and settle the residents of a few dozen planets. However, it is absolutely impossible to settle all the humans on hundreds of millions of planets in a medium-sized star system. It is better to keep the Zerg in the medium-sized star system, with the central star system as the base, and fight the Zerg to the death.

The evacuation of a massive population is already a headache for the government. All the planets in the safe zones are overflowing, local management is in a state of chaos, the original social order has been disrupted, and the empire's finances have been strained. The resettlement of hundreds of billions of people is simply unsustainable.

It's not about abandoning the lives of millions; most of the Empire's legions are fighting the war, and countless soldiers have shed their blood in space. What if all the soldiers are wiped out? In that case, ordinary people will still have to face an even more powerful Zerg. It's better to end it sooner rather than later.

The government and its officials refused to admit that they would be defeated by the Zerg, but the military saw it very clearly: the human army was no match for the Zerg army, and defeat was only a matter of time.
The military, led by the Imperial Marshal, had argued with the ministers in front of the Emperor many times. They had not made proper arrangements for the current situation, and could not openly say that they would abandon hundreds of millions of people. In the end, they could only tacitly approve the military's mercenary plan.

Although Lin Yuyang was only a general in the planetary guard, he had rich military combat experience and had participated in many wars. He had never fought against the Zerg, but the training of the army was the same. The main thing was to obey orders and cooperate with each other. As long as they dared to fight, even a ragtag army could fight against the Zerg.

He's been leading these mercenaries for a while now; how should he train them? He already has a preliminary plan.
Time waits for no one. The battlefield is constantly changing, and the fighting in the middle zone is extremely fierce. Many planets are about to be destroyed. Once the Zerg become stronger, they will launch a fierce attack. The human legion will definitely not be able to withstand it and will have to retreat. It is estimated that this star field, which has finally become somewhat stable, will be lost.

As a soldier, protecting the empire is ingrained in his bones. The middle star system is about to fall completely, and trillions of people will suffer a terrible fate, leaving no trace of their bodies and only despair. His strength as an individual is limited. Even if he fights desperately, he can only kill a few Zerg. The most important thing is to speed up the training of an army that can fight the Zerg.

The Cold Night Fleet had just arrived and hadn't yet participated in military training. They only received a brief training session before being dispatched on missions, unaware that in addition to military control, all mercenaries in the war zone would undergo military training together. At this moment, Lin Yuyang had already noticed the Cold Night war zone. Seeing the space pirates' tactics, his expression immediately darkened, his gaze turning icy and sinister.

He had heard of Leng Ye's deeds, but a space pirate is a space pirate, and death cannot atone for their sins. In peacetime, he would have wiped out all these space pirates long ago to rid the people of this scourge.

A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. They were all villains anyway. If they encountered the Zerg, they would use them to clear the way. He had heard that Commander Leng Ye was very upright and should not object. He hoped that Leng Ye could control these space pirates, otherwise they would definitely be a hindrance on the battlefield.

After watching for a while, Lin Yuyang murmured, "It seems these space pirates need more training. Leng Ye's men can't control them, and not a single squad is following the commander's orders."

On land, in the city Leng Ye was in charge of, the Zerg had been basically wiped out; all that remained was to rescue the people.

Most of the residents were rescued when the Zerg were defeated. This search is to find some who might have been left behind. We cannot abandon them. We must not give up on any human being when we have the ability.

The city has no shortage of resources, and there are still quite a few scattered Zerg. If there are still humans living there, it is extremely difficult.

The Cold Night Mercenary searched everywhere with a life detector and kept sending messages to urge the hiding humans to come out.

The space pirates were only interested in killing the insectoids to vent their anger, and completely ignored their squad leader's request to search for and rescue people.

Someone else sneered coldly, "I only know how to kill, not save. Don't make a big deal out of nothing. We've wiped out the Zerg. The rest is up to you."

These space pirates, having wiped out the Zerg, reverted to their old habits and began plundering for valuable items. Although the city was largely destroyed, many buildings remained intact. They dug and dismantled, hoping to find something of value. After a fierce battle, the space pirates' arrogance seemed to revive slightly.

One of the captains, Leng Ye, said with difficulty, "How many people do we have? How can we search the entire city? When you come out on a mission, you must obey orders."

"Haha, obey your orders? What a joke! I'm already being generous by not killing you. We've already killed the Zerg, the rest is your business. Don't delay my fortune-making."

The space pirates laughed loudly and said menacingly, reaching out to push aside the mercenaries who were trying to stop them, and quickly ransacked the place to see what treasures they could find.

As for the three key points Ye Zhi Qiu mentioned before they accepted the mission, they had already forgotten them. After being cooped up on the warship for almost a year, they finally got some fresh air and came to a city like this. Even if they didn't gain anything, it was worth it to be able to take everything they wanted. They had also killed the Zerg, so it was time for them to have some fun.

"What kind of fun is it? Let me join in!" a soft, charming voice came from behind.

The space pirates in every corner of the city froze simultaneously, their laughing faces turning to fear. (End of Chapter)
