Interstellar Super Planter

Chapter 1142 First Battle Great Victory
Due to space limitations, Ye Zhi Qiu would send out twice the number of space pirates as the insectoid race each time to fight, and would rotate them when the casualties reached 10%.

By the time all the space pirates except the mercenaries had been rotated, most of the Zerg had been wiped out. Ye Zhi Qiu issued the order for a general offensive, and all troops went into battle.
This time, both space pirates and mercenaries must participate in the war. If you are afraid of dying, don't go on the mission. If the space pirates die, they die. If the mercenaries are afraid to fight, they will be sent back and expelled from the Cold Night Mercenary Group.
Ye Zhi Qiu knew that the mercenaries in the group lacked experience and couldn't bear to see them die, but if they weren't sent into battle now, they would be ruined if they didn't experience more fighting.

Besides, his old brothers were no pushovers either. Those young lads were just inexperienced and lacked courage. After a few more battles, they would be invincible.

Perhaps he was worrying unnecessarily. If you dare to come to the Zerg battlefield on a mission, you should be prepared to be wiped out. If you're afraid of this little bit of force, what chance do you have if you really encounter hundreds of millions of Zerg?

Ye Zhi Qiu gave the order for a general attack. Bai Qian waved her hand and retrieved the protective array plate. Everyone rushed towards the Zerg with a roar, attacking with all kinds of weapons. The shouts and screams were deafening.
The human side was in high spirits. Even the timid and cowardly were spurred on and bravely charged forward, with a dozen or so people fighting desperately against a single Zergling.

The more powerful Zerg have been held back by the mech team; eliminating the remaining Zerg is only a matter of time.

Bai Qian stopped at this point, unless she took a liking to someone and decided to help them.

Anyway, she killed all the stronger Zerg. If the remaining tens of thousands of people couldn't even eliminate less than 20,000 Zerg, they would really be useless. Keeping them around would just be a waste of food. It's better to use them early and be a good person in the next life.

Although the Zerg were powerful, they couldn't withstand Leng Ye's overwhelming numbers and managed to wipe out tens of thousands of Zerg one by one.

During this time, some Zerg tried to escape, but Bai Qian stopped them and brought them back, giving the space pirates practice. The more Zerg they killed, the stronger they would become. Leng Ye didn't raise useless people; he slowly weeded out the weak and kept the strong. Only the surviving space pirates would be useful in the future.

Hmph! Bai Qian sneered inwardly: Ye Zhi Qiu cares about his own people and is reluctant to let the mercenaries be injured or killed, but he is ruthless in ordering the space pirates to fight.

However, aside from Su Qing and a few other people, she didn't care about the lives of the rest of humanity.

As they killed the last Zergling, everyone cheered. They had actually accomplished what seemed like an impossible battle.

Cheers erupted in the cockpit of the Violet. During the intense battle, the mercenaries in charge of the warship's cannons kept their eyes glued to the screen, waiting for the order to fire.
Ye Zhi Qiu has not used the naval cannons. This is not Star Wars. Naval cannons are a last resort and should not be used lightly in land battles.

With hundreds of thousands of space pirates, they still couldn't take down tens of thousands of insectoids. They could just use a human wave tactic. The purpose of keeping space pirates was to kill insectoids, so he wasn't afraid of high casualties.

Su Qing captured them for this reason; otherwise, he would have killed them all long ago.

Ye Zhi Qiu ordered the battlefield to be cleaned up, and the logistics department was responsible for collecting the spoils of war.
The main force of the battle, those seriously injured returned to the warship for treatment, those with minor injuries were treated with medical equipment, and all combat personnel rested on the spot for a few minutes to check whether the equipment and energy were sufficient, etc.
Once the order was given, the planetary spaceport instantly sprang into action, with each component performing its assigned task.

A good commander must be thorough in all aspects; even a slight oversight can lead to mission failure.

Ye Zhi Qiu has decades of mercenary experience and rich combat experience. Although he commands many people now, they have similarities. However, he is still far from being a commander of a regular army and needs to learn a lot. He can only learn by trial and error in war.

After watching the entire battle, Lin Yuyang thought that Leng Ye's mercenary group was alright, but they were still far from being a regular army. They had outnumbered the enemy and still suffered so many casualties. It was only because these people were space pirates that he didn't care.
Since the war with the Zerg began, all the major legions have been fighting against overwhelming odds. If they all used the same tactics as Leng Ye, their armies would have been wiped out long ago.

"Get ready, we're going down," Lin Yuyang said.

"Yes."

A thousand fully armed soldiers followed Lin Yuyang, entering the shuttle one by one, and landing over the spaceport moments later. In an open area amidst the ruins, hundreds of thousands of people were bustling about, yet orderly amidst the chaos, busy under the leadership of their respective captains.

After a short rest, the main combat personnel boarded armed vehicles and small warships, and divided into several teams, heading in one direction. Each team was accompanied by a mech pilot, and they officially began clearing the Zerg from the planet.

The teams are located within a few miles of each other and can provide support at any time.

Lin Yuyang led his team behind these people, recording the battle achievements of the Cold Night Mercenary Group.

Inside the cockpit of the Violet in space, everyone remained steadfast at their posts, not daring to relax for a moment.

Ye Zhi Qiu studied the panoramic map of the planet; all cities were the targets for elimination.

The Zerg are most fond of various energy sources refined by humans, and cities, with their large populations, are key targets for invasion.
The Zerg also need energy in the mountains and oceans, but they prefer to eat what's readily available. Only when the Zerg truly conquer a planet will they enter the oceans and mountains to hatch large numbers of Zerg.

The number of Zerg on the planet is still small, and most of them are concentrated in cities, which is why they need to be wiped out as soon as possible. Otherwise, if so many soldiers are sacrificed on the front lines and the Zerg grow rapidly behind them, it will all have been for nothing.

Ye Zhi Qiu didn't understand the significance of the Cold Night Mercenary Group accepting the mission. He simply wanted to lead the space pirates to kill the insectoid race, and his sense of patriotism and service to the people was still in a hazy stage.

After the battle at the spaceport, he dared not be complacent and underestimate the scattered insectoids on the planet.

Without mercenaries to clean up the area, the Zerg grew strong and powerful in a short time, eventually forming an army.
If they hadn't had protective shields and plenty of manpower, they would probably have suffered heavy casualties. Even if it doesn't matter how many space pirates die, it will still affect future development! It would be best if as few of the people they trained as possible died.

After the battle, nearly ten thousand space pirates were killed or wounded, which made him feel a little reluctant.

Although the task of clearing out the Zerg is divided into several teams, they are not far apart and can support each other at any time. They will eventually gather in the city ahead, then disperse and gather in the next city.
All warships provide air support. We cannot underestimate the Zerg. We must revise our previous battle plan and avoid dispersing our forces.

The planet is so large that a hundred thousand people gathered together may seem like a lot, but scattered, they are insignificant. If they were to encounter the Zerg army, without Bai Qian and Zhu Lao to hold them back, the space pirates would definitely collapse at the first touch. Therefore, Ye Zhi Qiu immediately changed his strategy to prioritize stability and slowly eliminate the Zerg.

Several teams set off on command, searching for the Zerg along the way. Life detectors were set to maximum range, and once Zerg were found, they were located and eliminated, advancing little by little.

After the battle, the Zerg in the city near the spaceport were wiped out. They need to use this city as a starting point to spread their search for all cities on the planet.

Lin Yuyang led his men to follow behind the mercenary group, and when they found a large number of Zerg, they would stop and join the battle.

All the warships also moved to new positions, ready to provide support at any time.

There are indeed quite a few Zerg on this planet. After a great battle, the stronger Zerg were basically wiped out, and the rest are easier to deal with. Just find a group and kill them one by one.
Finally, everyone met up in the city and searched the entire city carefully, collecting usable resources along the way, which was also an opportunity to earn extra money.

Because the military doesn't provide escorts, mercenary groups only need to hand over 20% of the supplies they find, allowing them to keep most of the supplies, which is the most motivating aspect.

Although the space pirates had no control over the supplies, they were very interested in this matter, and the large amount of supplies they found also benefited them.
If they could live a little longer, the female demon might be pleased and even give them an antidote. So the insectoids were very active in killing them and finding supplies, while Leng Ye's few hundred mercenaries were somewhat less enthusiastic.
